Lucifer sacrificed too much for world peace

Alexandre Dumas' protest had some effect.

Faced with this situation, David Carnegie, who felt that the sage probably had no time to take care of his own side in the short term, simply went upstairs to chat with Da Vinci, leaving Martin Nicholas alone who was absent-minded.

After the two left, Alexandre Dumas looked at the unresponsive Martin. Even if the other party was an elder she knew, she had stern eyes and determined to defend the purity of the literary salon unselfishly: If you are not interested in literature, please leave. ! ?You didn't get admission in the first place!

However, Martin Nicholas did not receive Dumas' eye signal at all. He seemed to be staring at the red-haired young man next to the sage, but in fact his eyes were empty, and he was staring at the void, as if he wanted to dig it out of his mind. The picture would pop out in front of his eyes.

Dumas couldn't help coughing again, which woke up Martin.

He heard a few words from Alexandre Dumas that he had to make up his qualifications or leave the first floor, nodded perfunctorily, deeply imprinted the picture over there in his mind, and then turned back to the second floor.

There is no way, the atmosphere around the three people over there is really self-contained, he hesitated several times and did not dare to come forward to disturb, he still has a chance to ask again... Or go home and think about it, maybe just remember What do you really care about!

After making up his mind, Martin's brain was finally able to deal with other things.

For example, Mr. Carnegie's cannery he has been following up... It sounds like the young man from other places is also involved?He had to hurry up and make sure no new problems arose.

The Garden of Eden is an experimental special zone hand-picked by the angels. Any project that the great sage values ​​may be the focus, and it must be recorded in detail!

Hurrying back to the second floor, Martin spotted Carnegie's usual seat at a glance.

Because of the church, he was already familiar with Carnegie, so he was not afraid to sit at the same table with him habitually.

"Aren't you talking about a cannery?" Martin asked. "Who?"

"Going to get drinks." Carnegie said, "I'm treating you today."

Since there was such a time-based buffet chess and card room on the second floor, not only the people from the Eden Chamber of Commerce used it as a base, and they came here to play cards and exchange information from time to time. , there are also some people who are willing to give it a try in the atmosphere of Eden's gradually opening up. Unknowingly, the most complete network of Eden has gathered here.

This world is actually a society of personal relationships. It has always been a tradition to seek help when encountering problems without affecting justice.

As a result, the second floor of the Apple Store has somehow become a place similar to the information house. When someone encounters something that is difficult to make a decision, or needs help, it is like a relative who is out of town is sick. Not only do they not have time and time to take care of themselves, but they are also unfamiliar with other places, and they can’t even find someone to help them. Now they no longer go to church to seek peace of mind, but can live in this miraculous place. to be resolved on the second floor.

Then, those who have been helped will also come to visit from time to time, trying to feed back the kindness they have received to other people in need.

This led to the unexpectedly high popularity of the chess and card room on the second floor, and they were embarrassed to always disturb the quiet great sages because of such mundane things as paying money. out a project -

They paid part of the money to the Apple store in advance, so that they don't have to bother the great sage until the money is used up.

Everyone thought this idea was good, and Carnegie went to discuss this operation with the great sage on behalf of everyone.

At that time, Lord Sage looked a little surprised.

"Then what we considered was that we could put a notebook at the door, and we would record the time ourselves, and write down how long we stayed inside when we left—"

"Don't bother." The great sage came back to his senses and said, "You can just leave, I have a way to calculate the time of your stay... Your proposal is very good, let's call it a membership system in the future, people who save money in advance Discount available."

Carnegie did not have any doubts. After all, he is a great sage. It is normal to know a few more spells than ordinary people, he said emotionally.

"You are so kind."

Great Sage: "...it doesn't have to be like this."

No one knows that this great sage who seems to be doing charity crazily is thinking in his heart: Thanks to the self-consciousness of people in this world, a lot of things are saved at once, and there is no need to send people to watch, and it is also possible to No one doubts that the store owner will deliberately miscalculate their own money, and will consciously invent a membership system...

So far, the chess and card room on the second floor has taken an independent route. Everyone seems to have unspoken rules to go up and down the stairs at the back door. They rarely go to the first floor to disturb the great sage, and the great sage has never missed accounts, including treats etc. are deducted from the correct membership balance.

People who can go to the second floor for a long time are not short of money. Lucifer managed to accumulate a huge sum of money in the shortest period of time. How huge is it?Enough for him to draw ten high-level pools!

However, Lucifer has already been heartbroken by Senior Chi.

The first time he smoked a game board that he couldn't play alone, and the second time he smoked a soda machine, he always felt that the alarm clock was operating in the dark, and he didn't really want to be taken advantage of.

But now that Satan and Michael are here, Lucifer thought that even if the alarm clock wanted to make a small move, he probably wouldn't dare to do it in front of these two, so he planned to come to the tenth company tonight. If he wanted something, he confessed to Michael and Satan that he had no strength at all right now, and asked them to help fix the alarm clock.

However, this is not a good time to draw a lottery. After Lucifer found that Alexandre Dumas had consciously undertaken the admission qualification review, he simply ignored all human beings. Taking advantage of the good atmosphere, he chatted with Satan and Michael while gaining information from it. .

"Among the people who went up just now, the guy with the best looks looks familiar." After a topic came to an end, Satan suddenly said.

"Huh?" Lucifer was digesting the information, but he couldn't react when he heard Satan's sudden sentence, "You can remember the appearance of human beings?"

Michael seized the opportunity to complain: "Could it be the descendants of the human beings you tricked?"

Satan rolled his eyes: "That's not true. The human beings I can remember must be related to Lucifer... That guy looks very similar to the human being that Lucifer helped when he went to the human world for the last time."

Huh?Are you talking about Da Vinci's ancestors?

Lucifer suddenly became energetic: "Do you know what happened to me and his ancestors?"

"Sorry, I don't know, when I went to find you, you were already planning to go back to the kingdom of heaven." Satan apologized, "I only know that you had a big fight with Father God after you returned to heaven, and then left The family ran away, I think something must have happened."

Michael also suddenly realized: "So it was that time?"

At the same time, Carnegie, Martin and Da Vinci on the second floor finally sat down to talk.

Da Vinci said: "I really want to concentrate on painting the portrait of the sage, and I have promised the sage to study the assembly line, so can you let me go and see the glass factory?"

Carnegie, who was once again impacted by this fragmented thought and speech, finally confirmed that he had heard it right just now, but even though it was the second time he heard it, he still couldn't help asking questions: "...???"

Is there any logical relationship between the context and context? !

Martin also had an expression of "Is this person really okay?": "I'm sorry, what did the sage tell you?"

Da Vinci said: "Because I'm a genius, Master Sage wants to ask me to see if I can make an assembly line machine, and if possible, see if other things can help."

"…………"

It was the first time they had heard someone claiming to be a genius, but since he was someone whom the sage was optimistic about... no, they still cared.

"Excuse me, what is your occupation...?" Carnegie confirmed politely.

Da Vinci said of course: "I am a painter, a designer, an inventor, an engineer, a mathematician, a botanist..."

Hearing Da Vinci's report, the two people on the opposite side were dumbfounded.

Martin from the church muttered subconsciously: "Is this okay? Isn't this too half-hearted? I think it's better to focus on doing one thing well..."

Da Vinci sighed: "Hundreds of years have passed, and the tone of your church is still the same as that of my ancestors at that time... Mr. Sage would not think so, he would only say that I'm really worthy The name of a genius', 'a man who is almost omnipotent'... Well, indeed, the sage is completely different from you."

"...Since Lord Sage said so."

Martin whispered in his heart that if he had the same brain circuit as the great sage, he could become a sage too.

Although I feel a little uneasy about this kind of person who seems to know everything, after all, knowing everything sometimes means not being good at everything, but seeing that the great sage is very optimistic about each other, the two have trust in the great sage , Discussed with Da Vinci about the reform of the factory and the current production process of the glass factory.

After hearing this, Da Vinci said that he already had some ideas, and took out the sketchbook he carried with him, and drew a sketch on it that neither of them could understand.

Martin and Carnegie looked at each other, and the already reluctant trust was even more shaky.

This... I don't even have a field trip, but I have an idea after listening to a theory... Is it reliable?Feeling pompous...

Sir Sage should not be deceived, right?After all, if I have misunderstood my own level, no matter how exaggerated I say it, it is not considered a lie, and naturally I will not be punished by God. What if this is a guy with high self-esteem but low-sightedness, Mr. Sage, what should I do? ...

To add insult to injury to this trust that was on the verge of being broken, everyone originally wanted to continue discussing Da Vinci's design drawings, at least to know whether the principle is reliable or not, or the design idea?As a result, Da Vinci refused and wanted to discuss this topic tomorrow, because he suddenly had some inspiration about other things and didn't want to interrupt.

Martin & Carnegie: "..."

They looked at each other again, showing expressions of concern.

"At least wait until tomorrow." Martin whispered to Carnegie, "Don't waste the kindness of Mr. Sage."

Of course, Carnegie will not be dissatisfied with the sage because he introduced an unreliable person. On the contrary, if the sage is really cheated, he will only feel distressed... The sage is busy opening a shop again , but also to pay attention to the trial, and to hold a steam engine seminar... so many things have to be handled by the sage, what happened if something went wrong!Isn't it just a mistake? Who hasn't made a mistake yet?

In the end, the two let Da Vinci, who had been deaf to what was going on outside the window and was obviously caught in his personal world, stay alone on the second floor, and they left first.

Carnegie even thought that even if Da Vinci stayed here overnight, he would still pay the money, and it would be considered as a repayment to the sage for his help all the time.

And Martin, because he had agreed with his wife to go home for lunch at noon, bid farewell to Carnegie and returned home.

Because of Da Vinci's accident, Martin came back early today, and his lunch was not ready yet. Seeing his tired face, his wife asked Martin to lie on the bed and take a nap, and call him when the meal was ready. .

Martin lay down obediently.

When people are tired, they close their eyes and fall into darkness, and it is easy to enter a mysterious state of sleepiness.

Countless broken thoughts floated and sank in Martin's mind. He didn't open his eyes until he heard his wife calling him to get up for dinner.

Because it was a nap, he didn't close the curtains, and when he opened his eyes suddenly, the sunlight outside the window pierced into his eyes, causing temporary blindness.

Martin, whose eyes were filled with white light, suddenly recalled the scene of the angel descending in his dream.

It's really similar, the angel was also at that time, and it was a conspicuous white light at a glance.

In fact, he quickly knelt down after entering the church auditorium, and the white light shining around the angel made him unable to see the specific face of the angel at all. He could only see a rough outline, and even the wings on the back were more eye-catching. Some.

But he caught it before he knelt down.

The figure in the white light was just at the moment when he lowered his hands from his waist.
