Even if it’s not direct, it’s a distance that can be reached in an hour at most by train. For some reason, it took us an extra two hours to get there.

In the second half of the journey, in order to fight wits and courage with the rabbi and not give him a chance to make trouble again, I basically kept holding his waist tightly, resting my head on his neck all the way, and did not raise my head no matter how I lied, but I didn’t expect that the above I dodged it, but suffered a disaster below—even after sitting on the hammer handle for so long, I...my butt hurts to death.

Seeing that I had been secretly rubbing my butt with puffy face since I hit the hammer, the rabbi hurriedly pulled me across the square with the iconic clock tower, and went straight to the rows of commercial streets that didn’t exist four years ago, and then Bought one from some grocery store...huh?Bought a fancy seat cushion?

"But why did you suddenly think of buying this?"

"Well, just tie this to the handle of the hammer," the rabbi gestured nervously, "it won't hurt when you go back...you don't have to worry about sitting uncomfortable when you go back."

I:"……"

No!You give up!Even if I put a luxurious seat on it, I won't take the hammer again when I go back!

... If you don't sit, don't sit!

After passing through the town, there is a vast green grassland.Along the winding path, along the way, you can see many scattered houses with honey-colored exterior walls.Going forward for a further distance, you will see the old wooden church located by the lake and surrounded by neat low stone walls.

"Is that right there?" The rabbi rested his arms on his pillow and blinked unexpectedly, "It turns out that Sisi and Allen lived in the church when they were young?"

"The one who supports Master is the abbot of the monastery here." I nodded, and when I got closer, I suddenly cleared my throat and put my hand to my mouth to form a trumpet shape, "Baba—is Baba there——"

"Huh? Isn't the marshal's patron named Martha? Baba again?"

"Baba is Martha's assistant, a..."

"Eh? The voice just now, could it be—ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Sisi! Is it Sisi? Long time no see, long time no see!"

With the sound of the grass leaves being pushed aside, a tall and strong figure like a hill suddenly emerged from the bushes obliquely in front of us, still dressed in dark blue overalls covered with grass leaves and a vigor straw hat , After seeing me, I immediately ran towards us while cheering and bang bang bang.

From a long distance, the rabbi and I could feel the ground visibly vibrate under our feet.

Me: "...As you can see, he is a strong man."

"No, that's not the point! The point is that he rushed over! Sisi, hurry up..."

"It's okay, I'm familiar with this." I didn't even need the rabbi to pull me, so I quickly dodged to the side, so Baba rushed straight between me and the rabbi unstoppably, "Just get out of the way!" gone."

Rabbi: "..."

Due to excessive force, Baba rushed all the way to the opposite side of the path before he could barely stop, paused, and rushed back on the same road happily and bang bang bang.

"Hahaha, I accidentally charged too far! I'm so happy!" Baba finally calmed down a bit, and immediately began to look around, "Huh? Where's the priest? Ceci, did you come back with the priest? What about Lian? Is Allen here too?"

"Ah...they didn't come."

"I really miss Father Priest and Allen. Is Father okay? That's right! And Allen—ah! Speaking of Allen, how is the bride-to-be?"

"Bride-to-be?"

who?Allen's?No, what's the situation?I also joined the religious group three years earlier than Lian, so this child will make a fiancée for himself?

"It's the one who came back with Allen last time—heh heh!" Baba suddenly held his face, opened his mouth into an "O" shape, and stared at the rabbi standing next to me in surprise, "Sese Ceci, this, this is..."

Then I remembered that I hadn't introduced the rabbi to him: "This is the rabbi, it's me..."

However, Baba could no longer listen to my words. After looking back and forth between us several times with a horrified and excited gaze, he immediately turned back and rushed to the church in the distance, so fast that there was smoke behind him: " Masa Masa! There is good news! After Allen came back with his wife, Ceci also brought her husband back—”

The rabbi didn't react too much throughout the whole process, until Baba ran away, and then he turned to me with a blushing face slowly, and stammered: "First, first sir?"

"Yes," I made eye contact with him and nodded with a heavy face, "You heard me right."

"No, wait, this, this is not a question of hearing correctly..."

"I think so too. I haven't seen you for a few years. I didn't expect that Baba's eyes have evolved so much." I knew what he was thinking and took it for granted, "You can see it at a glance."

Rabbi: "..."

"No, it's not this!" The rabbi opened his mouth, suddenly he seemed to be unable to control his expression very well, he seemed to be uncontrollably happy, and he seemed to be very helpless about something.Subconsciously, he raised his hand to cover his eyes, paused, and then felt that something was wrong, so he covered his mouth instead, preventing me from seeing his expression, and only let out a soft voice, "You..."

Just at this moment, the warm wind blew past, blowing away the clouds in the sky, I pretended not to see the corners of his upturned mouth before, and just smiled at him.

The sun is just right.

·

Although the town has changed significantly over the past few years, Martha’s church has remained the same as when I left—the moment I entered, I was reminded of the day when I was brought here for the first time by Master.

There's that rare...feeling of coming home.

As soon as he came in, Baba happily went to make lunch.

"...Long time no see," Martha pointed at the pipe, signaling us to sit down.After taking another big puff of the cigarette, he glanced at the rabbi in the mist, "So, this is..."

Me: "Ah, he is..."

"I know," Martha waved her hand, "Like Li Nali who came last time, she is an exorcist belonging to the Black Order."

"Huh? That seems to be correct, but..."

"Don't worry, there's no need to emphasize," Martha was used to, "I'm not that idiot Baba, and I won't misunderstand."

But the problem is...he seems to be...not misunderstood...

But being interrupted one after another, I suddenly got stuck, so I tugged on Rabbi's sleeve under the table and made crackling eye contact with him.

"...Well, I am indeed the exorcist of the sect," the rabbi read my eyes, raised his hand and pointed at himself slightly, saw me nodding, so he touched his nose and turned to Martha .With a dry laugh, he took up the conversation rather embarrassedly, "However, Ceci and I... we... are indeed lovers."

Martha: "...?"

"Lover?" The pipe in Martha's hand dropped with a click, but she didn't bother to pick it up. She turned her ear to the side like a deaf ear, "With whom? Say it again?"

"Me, and me," I immediately pointed to myself, "You heard me right, it's me."

Martha then turned her gaze to me.

At a certain moment, I suddenly seemed to see a more complicated and unbelievable expression on Martha's face than simple surprise, but when I looked again, she had already started to hold her back with her hands. The old man grinned routinely: "Hiss—my waist—"

Speaking of which, Martha's problem of twisting her waist when she's surprised hasn't healed yet...

"...Unexpectedly," after beating, Martha sat down again with a straight face, stroked the tabletop carved with leaf patterns, and let out a plain sigh of emotion as if nothing had happened, "That Sisi from back then also found a lover Ah—the days when I was a child chasing Kuros around and calling him Dad are gone forever—by the way, do you still call him Dad now?”

"After leaving here, I started calling Master."

But in my heart I still call him Dad.

Massa paused, as if he just asked casually: "Then does he know about you?"

"Of course I do." I nodded without thinking.

If it really counts, Master knew about it two years ago, a month earlier than even Bilian.

"Huh? Does the Marshal know?" The rabbi looked at me in surprise, "But, didn't this happen after the Marshal went to the Central Committee?"

Ah, almost forgot we only punctured the window paper after we moved to the new headquarters...

"Well...it's like this," I immediately thought of a very reasonable explanation, "Although Master and I are not father and daughter, we are better than father and daughter, so we also have that kind of telepathy between us." , Even if you don’t tell me the trivial things like “I’m with so-and-so” in person, the master can sense it in the center—how? It’s amazing, isn’t it?”

Rabbi: "..."

Martha: "..."

"It's still the same," Martha commented in a low voice, then set his eyes on the rabbi next to me, narrowing his eyes slightly, "Speaking of which, this is not an ordinary exorcist, is he... Human family?"

I immediately turned my head and looked the rabbi up and down.

No, this can be seen at a glance?There is no sign of a scholar anywhere?

"Ah...well," the rabbi also nodded in surprise, "but, how can you tell...?"

"It's still obvious." Martha replied, but she obviously didn't intend to expand. She just put the pipe aside, tied the napkin, and looked towards the door with a premonition.

Sure enough, in the next second, Baba knocked open the door with an oversized pot: "It's time to eat—Sisi Sixi, I have prepared your favorite special soup!"

After drinking and eating, Martha went to the town to help, Bobo helped the rabbi clean up a vacant room, and I returned to the room where I lived when I was a child.

"However, it turned out that the bride-to-be was talking about Li Nali." Before leaving, the rabbi blinked suddenly.

"Time flies," Baba immediately held his face in his hands and sighed, "In a blink of an eye, Allen and Sisi got married, and I don't know what happened to the priest. The priest must work hard."

Because there are too many things to correct, I don’t know where to start for a while, so I paused, so I had to pick the most serious one before closing the door: “Baba, Master, I advise you not to rely on him. gone."

The various furnishings in the room are still the same as when I left, but there is no thick dust accumulated on it as I thought, which shows that even though Master and I have left, Baba is still cleaning the room frequently.

I stood by the window for a while before I took off my coat and put it on the bed, took out the towels and went into the bathroom.

After opening the curtain, I saw that it was not a shower, but a familiar bathtub.

If I hadn’t seen this, I’d have almost forgotten it—in the month I first came to the church, for some reason, I had to soak in the water for a while every day.At that time, Master thought I was troublesome, and he didn't want to keep looking at me, and he was afraid that I would really drown, so he tied a rope around my wrist, and held the other end in his hand, and pulled it from time to time outside.

...but it's useless.

Once I accidentally fell asleep in the bathtub, the bubbling was bubbling and sinking to the bottom, and Master was still drinking and having fun outside.It was because Baba found out that something was wrong and called Masa, and I died in my own bathtub at a young age.

So... will Martha tell me?

I turned on the faucet, flushed the bathtub, filled it with hot water, took off my clothes, and sat in it naked.

Most likely not, I closed my eyes and thought.

Are you going to hypnotize her?

Hypnosis is the next choice. Martha is conservatively estimated to be over 80 years old. Although her body has always been strong, she coughed several times when she was eating.

Forget it, let’s cheat.

As "Cecilia Farley".

But... a hot bath really feels good...

The pores of the whole body are stretched, and the fatigue of the past few days is swept away.I just leaned against the edge of the bathtub, floating up and down in the steamy water, until the knock on the door came from far and near, and then I opened my eyes drowsily, realizing that I had fallen asleep like I did when I was a child.

"Cersi...?" The rabbi seemed to have been knocking for a while, but he didn't get a response from me. He seemed to think I was sleeping and planned to leave.

"Ah, here!" I quickly yelled loudly in the bathroom, "I'm taking a shower, wait a minute, I'll be out right away!"

As I said that, I got up and stepped out of the bathtub, pulled off the towel that was put on the clothesline just now, and quickly wiped my body.

Um?and many more?

But after rubbing it, I felt something was wrong.

No, wait a minute, isn't this—a great opportunity to wrestle in the bathroom and lure him in?

But—although it often happens in novels, but, but suddenly I am going to bring this plot to reality, and I am still a little hesitant.

However, just when I finally made up my mind and searched for a long time before I found a posture that didn't look so mentally retarded and fell down on the bathroom floor, I suddenly heard the rabbi's voice from outside.

"Sisi, Baba told me to help outside, so I'll go first?"

I:"……"

"Cersi? Can you hear—"

"Yes, I can hear it," I tried hard to suppress my little heart that became cold in an instant, "You...you go..."

No, you come back!Come in and have a look at me before you leave!I'm all set!

But I didn't have the nerve to say that, so I had to climb up by myself again, and then because it was too cold, I adjusted the water temperature again, stepped in and continued to soak.

This time I slept soundly, and when I opened my eyes again, the water in the bathtub was completely cold.

I rubbed my eyes, stepped out, dried my whole body, and when I got dressed and walked out of the bathroom, I realized that there were red clouds like mountains outside the window.

It was already dusk.

I glanced through the window, and saw that the rabbi outside the courtyard was wearing a gardener's uniform I found somewhere, and Baba, who was in the same costume, was shoveling the soil and weeding.

When I found a few towels to wash and took them out, they just finished their work. The rabbi just wiped the sweat off his forehead with his arms, and when he saw me, he immediately rushed all the way with open arms, regardless of the presence of outsiders. come over.

"C-C-C-"

However, when he got close, he suddenly stopped as if thinking of something, and took off the gardener's uniform on his body at the speed of light.I took the wet towel from my hand again, and wiped myself from head to toe as long as the part exposed outside, but still seemed dissatisfied, so I had to throw the towel into the basin beside me, He muttered, "I'm sorry Ceci, let's take a shower again", then leaned over and hugged me.

"I'm so tired, so tired—please lean on me—"

Are you relying on it?You are a bear hug!

"Ah—too bad, I don't have any strength at all, Sisi Sixi, can you carry me back?"

Seeing that he was really tired, I had no choice but to sigh, turned around in his arms, and then exerted all my strength to carry him on my back—yes, the kind of back that drags my legs on the ground—step by step. Move back.

But after moving a few steps, I realized that this man didn't really want me to carry it at all. Although his arm was on my shoulder, he was careful to control his strength so that he didn't press me down. It lay on my back like a pendant, and walked on its own.

...It's this posture, just thinking about it makes me feel so mentally retarded that I can't see it.

When I was so distracted, I stumbled, but just when I was about to fall to the ground, the rabbi grabbed me in time and turned around, using his body as a cushion under me| .

The orange light diffused from behind, enveloping us airtightly, I put my hands on the Rabbi's chest, stared blankly at him, and felt a little reluctant to get up for a moment.

"That's great," until I turned my head and found that Baba squatted next to us with his face in his hands, with pink bubbles all over his body, "Cersi and Mr. are going to kiss?"

I:"……"

Too, too ruined the atmosphere you!

After taking a bath again and having dinner, the rabbi followed me back to the room and sat on the bed sticky. He said that he was tired all day and had to whisper in the evening.

However, before I could say a few words, I was so tired and the wall lamp was too dim that I fell on my body and fell asleep.

I withdrew as little as possible, and helped him lie on his side to the side of the pillow, but when I was helping him remove the hairband and cover the blanket, I suddenly remembered the experience that he had a fever and fell ill during the trip together.

It's like back then...

I gently turned off the wall lamp, and then, taking advantage of the moonlight pouring in from the window, I walked over and squatted down, lying on the edge of the bed, and quietly stared at his sleeping face in the dark.After a pause, he unconsciously stretched out his hands to play with the strands of hair hanging down on his face. After playing for about a minute, he smoothed out the messy hair and poked his face carefully.

Although this person's body was hard, his face was warm and soft.

I couldn't hold back, and poked him twice before leaning over and kissing him lightly on the face.

But after the kiss, I don't want to leave, I want to climb up and sleep with him.

But this can only be thought about in the end.

I took a deep breath, went out lightly but without hesitation, and went downstairs.

Baba always went to bed early, while Martha was old and prone to insomnia. At this time, if there were no accidents, he would usually sit in the lobby drinking alone, or stand in front of the lattice window, looking out at the cemetery outside the window and lost in thought.

The moment I walked in, Martha just blew out the candles on the table and walked over to close the curtains. The cold silver moonlight slanted in through the latticed windows, coating the wrinkled face. frost.

"Matha."

I called her by her name, and walked over in those semi-dark places, showing only half of my expressionless face, deliberately creating a weird and weird atmosphere of "this person is a little different from usual".

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The trial begins.

The author has something to say:

①One day in the future, the rabbi accidentally saw the to-do list on Sethysbook: Be sure to slip once in the bathroom [mark the key point].

Rabbi: "?"

I specially bought a super non-slip mat that will not fall even if I deliberately pour soap foam on it, and spread it in the bathroom.

Sisi: "..."

②I don’t know when, everyone in the headquarters discovered that as long as Sisi was present, when the rabbi extended the handle of the hammer, it would be covered with a fancy cushion.

Sisi: "..."

Sisi (with dull eyes): "Next time I won't sit! Next time I won't say anything! Next time I won't sit if I beat you to death!"
