"So we haven't seen each other for almost nine years. Honestly, I didn't expect Lancer to remember me. Well, I should say I think he might remember me, but I really didn't He will ask friends to come to see me in France. You know, when my husband and I got married, I didn’t invite him. Of course, he is now a guard in the Vatican, so it’s likely that I invited him, and he can’t ask for leave.”

"guard?"

"Yes! Is he...not in the Vatican now?"

"No no, he's here, he's here."

It was on a train from Lyon to Turin.Transfer via Chambery.Because the train at [-]:[-] in the morning may be a little too early for a European housewife.So when they arrived in Chambery, the two ate a belated breakfast together at the snack bar at the train station.

Novia, that is indeed a rare beauty.Although she has black hair and black-haired eyes, she can give people a... Elf-like feeling.She has a pretty face and a charming smile.And this elf-like woman is now adding a maternal beauty because of her labor relationship.

Even Yue Yihuang, when he saw her for the first time, would be caught off guard, something related to his heartbeat.

Novia, she is exactly what Lancer said.

When Yue Yihuang found her, this woman was struggling to carry many shopping bags into the house by herself.Seeing this scene, Yue Yihuang immediately ran over to help her.To thank him, the beautiful woman offered to invite him in for a cup of tea.In this way, Yue Yihuang smoothly told the other party his intention of coming.Tell the other party that he is Lancer's friend, and because he happened to be in Lyon, he accepted Lancer's request and stopped by to see her.

That made Novia extremely surprised, and because of this, she took the initiative to tell the other party about her recent situation.

Her husband went away for work three months ago.Although they talk on the phone or send text messages to each other almost every day, as a pregnant woman, it is really hard for her to be alone in a strange place.What made it even harder for her was the phone call she received on Christmas Eve.

Her husband told her that if he hadn't come back by Christmas, maybe he wouldn't have been with her waiting for the baby.

When Yue Yihuang heard Novia say these words with a trace of regret and loss, Yue Yihuang suddenly felt a heart-wrenching feeling.He knew the truth, but he couldn't tell the woman in front of him that her husband, and the father of the child she was carrying, would never come back.

"Yue, Yue?"

"Sorry, I just lost my mind, can you repeat that?"

When the two enjoyed breakfast together, Yue Yihuang once again thought of the scene when he saw Novia the day before yesterday.He apologized to the woman Lancer wanted to protect even if she was suspected by the Holy See, and then continued their conversation.

"I just want to say, thank you very much for your help. In fact, when I married Legra, my parents did not agree, and it can even be said that they were very opposed. So it is difficult for me to ask them now. Help. I'm sorry if my waywardness has caused you trouble."

"No, don't say that. Lanser specifically asked me when I came, if there is anything that can help you, you must do your best. If you tell me that you don't need anything when I find you, I will It will be more difficult."

Mentioning Lancer again, Novia became silent, even a little sad, but did not speak, but said to Yue Yihuang when the two boarded the train from Chambery to Turin again:

"Lance, he is a reliable man who can make people trust him unconditionally."

…………

After arriving in Turin with Novia, Yue Yihuang quickly put on a disguise such as a beard, and explained helplessly to Novia that he is still a famous football player in this city .If the reporter photographed him and Novia coming out of the train station like this, something bad might happen.

Novia smiled and nodded in surprise.

Yue Yihuang brought this beautiful Swiss woman to Natasha's home.This woman who comes to his house every day to clean the room, arrange things, and prepare daily necessities happens to have a very young daughter, and her husband is a sailor, who happened to go to sea recently, and it will take a long time Will be back.

Yue Yihuang entrusted Novia to Natasha, and told Natasha that she didn't need to go to her home to tidy up the room these days.Take good care of Novia, take her to the hospital for regular checkups, and meet her needs as much as possible until she gives birth to the child smoothly, and then help her take care of the child together. This is Natasha's current job.

But after doing all this, Yue Yihuang still couldn't feel at ease.

Because he couldn't confirm whether the descendants of the Knights Templar would come to Turin to find this woman with a rough fate and lead her to the bottomless abyss.Fortunately, Lancer thought of this earlier than him.He found someone to send a chip to Yue Yihuang through his own means in the Vatican, and asked Yue Yihuang to find an opportunity to install the chip on Novia's mobile phone as soon as possible.That would make it impossible for any number from France to reach her.

Now, Yue Yihuang can only simply hope that... this gentle and beautiful woman can safely give birth to the crystallization of love between her and her husband, and then take that child to find his own, a better life, and let him The child grew up safely in love.

The side that was supposed to be the center of the vortex was in a strange, calm state.

Lancer, who had regained his freedom and shouldered the important task of protecting the pope's safety, did not stop his investigation.

On his computer, an extremely complex program displayed several phone numbers from France, and he began to perform complex calculations and various analyzes on these numbers.Those analyzes included capturing the communications signals of the unidentified mobile numbers and finding out which mobile numbers they were talking to.

But it is a pity that the owners of those numbers seem to have been guarding against others' search of their communication signals, and then used a mobile phone with a very strong encryption system like a Blackberry.

Lancer couldn't get too much information by capturing and analyzing these numbers.

But he did more than that.He sneaked into the local city surveillance system in Lyon, France through hacking techniques, and simultaneously transmitted the videos captured by the electronic surveillance equipment on the street where Novia lived back to the Vatican City.

And, he employs another very old but sure-fire method.Yes, Lancer called the Swiss he grew up in the same town as.

"Officer Diego, how are you doing recently?"

"Who are you man?"

"Lance, I would like to ask you to do me a favor. Help me pay attention to the suspicious person who came to the town to inquire about beautiful girls recently..."

As the Pope's personal bodyguard, while protecting the girl named Novia, Lancer continued to follow up and investigate the descendants of the Knights Templar who caused the shooting on Christmas Eve.It's just that his dedication has a different meaning in the eyes of some people in the Holy See.

Asking the guard soldiers around him to closely monitor Lancer, a bishop in the Vatican City received a report from his soldiers, and with a smile on his face, he rolled up his robe and walked towards the place where Pope Benedict XVII is now.He first knocked lightly on the door of the Pope's room, and then told the Pope with a humble look what the Swiss, who had just cleared up some of his suspicions, contacted the outside world and made frequent moves, has been doing recently. thing.

"His Royal Highness, he didn't use any power of the Holy See, and he didn't even contact the mafia. It looks like he is deliberately hiding something. Don't you think he is suspicious?"

Benedict XVII, who was frightened by the Christmas Eve shooting not long ago, was looking out of the window at the magnificent and quaint Vatican City when he heard those words, and he turned his head abruptly He turned around and looked at the bishop with an unusually sharp gaze.

"Isn't it enough to put him in a brig and interrogate him?"

Although the voice of Benedict XVII is not loud, it is full of undoubted power.When he said these words, the clerical bishop couldn't help taking a small step back after being stunned.However, this did not stop Benedict XVII from being furious.

"Or lie detectors can't prove his innocence? The Swiss will not betray the Pope! Never! If my loyal guard is really a member of the Knights Templar, he doesn't have to do this at all. When those people fired the first shot, they rushed in front of me later, and those people have already succeeded! Do you want to force him to retire early? Then when I am in danger again, you, you will stand in my way Fire a deadly bullet! Answer my question!!"

Clerical bishops cannot answer the pope's questions.Therefore, I can only leave the room where Benedict XVII usually handles official documents with trembling lips...

Christmas Eve, gunshots, Templars.

When these three words are connected together, it will bring people endless thoughts.

But for a small number of people, knowing the first two words, and a few other little truths, is enough for meditation.

In London, England, the filming task of another film has just ended in the past few days, and the popular Czech film actor Alan Usayare, who started to sit leisurely in his villa and select films, received from his subordinates A report was received there.

A black-market cosmetic doctor under their protection met five French clients three months ago and asked the doctor to change their appearance.This is not such a surprising thing.In fact, from time to time fugitives who have committed serious crimes go to these black-market plastic surgeons to make a facelift for themselves in order to escape the pursuit of international police.

Such black market doctors usually don't ask any questions to customers, only talk about the price, and the fees are extremely high.

Such black-market doctors often seek the protection of gangsters because many of their clients may kill them afterwards.

Of course, in addition to this, they will also leave something for themselves to save their lives.What this black-market cosmetic doctor who was under the protection of one of Allen's subordinates left behind was a comparison of the photos of those customers before and after plastic surgery.

The plastic surgeon was surprised to find that these people were not fugitives who planned to hide after committing crimes, but lunatics who planned to commit crimes after successful plastic surgery.

Yes, those five people were the thugs who went to the St. Petersburg Cathedral on Christmas Eve and committed the shooting.

Realizing how serious the significance of this matter would be, the black-market plastic surgeon quickly reported the situation to his protector, and this information was handed over to Allen in this way.

Looking at this information, Allen was silent for a long time.Until his assistant, Jacques, who had followed him in the biggest gangster in Central Europe and had been by his side until now, brought him a cup of hot cocoa.

"Maybe, we can sell this information to the Holy See? They will be willing to pay a good price."

"Do not."

Listening to Jakesh, who handed over the information to him, asked, Allen put down the information, lay back on the soft sofa, closed his eyes and rubbed his temples with a headache: "Compared to the Holy See , these lunatics who will go to St. Petersburg Cathedral to shoot the Pope on Christmas Eve will be more trouble."

"Want to hear some follow-up, sir?"

Jakesh, whose burly figure was covered by a decent suit, asked such a sentence, and Alan nodded with his eyes open, with a charming smile.

"I investigated the real identities of these five people when I was integrating the data, and now I have come to the results. And I found that three of the five people are married, and their partners are still alive. Two of them have their partners already I was picked up by a group of people before today, but there was one more person, Legra's wife, who was picked up. That woman was picked up before, and the other person was your ex-boyfriend, Francisco adulterer."

"which one?"

Hearing the other party say these words in a very heavy and calm tone, Allen threw out another question almost without thinking...
