American Variety: Scientific Exorcism - #384 - Chapter 373 Sending Buddha to the West
John Wick carries Lucy out of the messy house.
Lucy’s gaze was behind John Wick. She looked at the corpses on the ground with mixed feelings in her heart, and her eyes began to fill with tears for some reason.
“Did that priest ask you to come?” she asked in a low voice.
“I just stayed in the corner, why would he do that.”
John Wick was stunned for a moment, stepped over several corpses outside, and thought about it seriously.
“host”
As soon as he said this word, John Wick immediately changed his tune.
“Because the priest is a good man and he has a pair of eyes that can discern people’s hearts.”
A very simple sentence, but it can answer Lucy’s question from various angles.
“oh”
Lucy’s vision went from clear to blurry as she began to see the body John Wick had stepped on.
Woohoo!
Very muffled cries sounded.
John Wick remained silent, holding the trembling Lucy until he walked to the car parked outside——
Ahibiyi Church.
The confessional, a small, quiet, private room with a layout similar to a telephone booth.
A partition was set up in the middle, and the squares on it were pierced with small holes one after another, which could make the voices clear, and the dim light could also blur the faces of both parties.
Such a layout will undoubtedly help the penitent believers who come here to relax their hearts.
“Bless me, Father, and forgive my sins.”
Yorks sat inside and did not turn his head, but looked ahead.
Although you don’t have to look, you can see who is coming in through the three-dimensional view.
But as a competent clergyman, Yorks turned off the stereogram and even blocked his own perception.
This is respect for one’s own profession, including believers.
But judging from the sound, he could tell whether the other person was a boy or a girl. He was a man and of a certain age.
“When was the last time you confessed?” Yorks said calmly, looking ahead.
After being a clergyman for so many years, he had accepted confessions from too many people.
“First time in a long time.”
Upon hearing these words, Yorks knew that this was the first time this believer had come to confess.
“Do you know the nature of the sin you have committed?”
“Nature?” came a confused voice.
“Sorry, Father, I’m not sure.”
York said, “No, deep down in your soul, you know it.”
“oh”
Sitting next to Yorks was a man, about thirty or forty years old. His long hair that reached his neck was slightly fluttering. He wore a pair of glasses and had a clean face.
“I probably understand, Father.”
“Yeah.” Yorks replied and waited quietly. Usually by this time, the other party would naturally explain himself.
No matter it was a crime or something, he would listen quietly and fulfill his responsibility to teach or have a conversation.
This has nothing to do with human nature, nor does it mean that repentance is a change of heart.
After all, repentance is repentance and punishment is punishment.
In his understanding, it is necessary to receive punishment for crimes, but repentance is also part of it. Only when the body and spirit have reformed can it be regarded as true repentance.
Of course, it all depends on the degree.
Even if you feel that you are ashamed of your family or something, you can repent.
After a second or two of quiet time, the other party slowly spoke.
“Father, I think I may have committed an unforgivable sin.”
“What crime?” Yorks said calmly.
“I think.” When the man said this, his breathing began to become heavy, which sounded unusually loud in York’s ears.
“I think an old friend’s reputation has been damaged because of my actions.” The man said quietly.
“My old friend is a kindergarten teacher. He is responsible and gentle. But one day my daughter said that he touched her. I was a little confused and didn’t know what to do.
I instinctively felt that my daughter was lying, but I don’t know why I chose to believe her. If it were me, I would bear it myself, but unfortunately there were other people nearby, so I made my own Action leads to aggravation of the matter.”
Yorks raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking of the corresponding scene.
Maybe the girl was caught doing something bad and was stopped by the teacher. Then the girl got angry and said these horrible things to her parents.
You have to know that in the United States, anything involving children is very serious, no matter what it is.
At the same time, reputation is also very important. Once bad behavior is exposed, you will inevitably be spurned and looked down upon.
In the United States, which values neighborly relations, once something like this happens, it is difficult to stay and you have to move somewhere else and start over.
“What role did you play in it?” York asked.
The man lowered his head, rubbed his hands, and replied: “Allowing this matter to be spread without stopping it will gain the attention of many people as a victim.
I also know that my daughter said that my old friend actually didn’t do anything and that all of this was the result of being guided, but I chose to acquiesce. “
Yorks pursed his lips.
“who?”
“The dean of the school and a psychologist.” The man said.
“When did you begin to see your sin?”
After hearing the priest’s words, the man fell silent, clasped his hands together, raised his head slightly, and let out a long breath.
“The place I live in is a small town, not big, and there is a small church nearby. When the dean announced this matter among parents, it spread very quickly.
He lost his job. Supermarkets, convenience stores, etc. refused my old friend entry to make purchases.
Some people looked down on him, despised and abused him, and some people beat him. It can be said that no one in the small town thought highly of him. “
The man seemed to be reminiscing.
“I met him in the church. I saw his unyieldingness from his eyes. In other words, in those clean eyes, I could see nothing but anger towards me. From then on, From that point on, I began to feel like I had done something wrong.
Because my old friend once came to my home and wanted me to ask my daughter to ask more clearly, but I refused him and instead told him that my daughter has never lied. Why did she do this? To lie.
In fact, my daughter Claire once told us that he had never done anything, it was just stupid nonsense she said, but we thought she was stimulated, which caused a traumatic reaction. “
Having said this, the man lowered his body.
After hearing this, Yorks probably knew the nature of the matter.
It can make the other person feel remorse, remorse and pain. I am afraid that the victim has never left the town where everyone is reviling him. No matter what he encounters, he is resisting and proving himself.
Whether it’s the supermarket refusing to sell food to him, or being attacked, verbally abused, etc.
“Child, are you willing to listen to me?” Yorks thought for a while and asked.
“Father, you say it,” the man responded.
“No matter what it is, I’m willing to accept it.”
“The source of the matter comes from your daughter’s lies, but please forgive her and look at it from a perspective. She is still young and cannot actually imagine the serious consequences of the matter,” said York.
“So I hope you can use this to teach and make her understand what the consequences of some of her actions may be.”
The man took a deep breath: “I will, Father.”
York’s fingers on his knees flicked: “And you… there is a word called group polarization, so group decisions are more likely to go to extremes than individual decisions. You need to get out of this potential influence and learn to use your own eyes to look……
My child, I want to ask you something. Do you really want to repent? “
The man pursed his lips, and after thinking carefully about the priest’s words, his mind became clearer: “Yes, that’s why I ran so far.”
“Then you should already know what you should do.” York said.
“When your heart feels peaceful, it means that the omniscient and almighty God has accepted your repentance.”
The man breathed out: “I will take my daughter to Lucas’ house to apologize, and”
But at this point, Yorks interrupted him and said gently: “Child, go ahead. You have found your own way to repent. I sincerely hope you don’t give up.”
As soon as this sentence came out, a reply came from the other side after a long time.
“Thank you, Father.”
“…”
Yorks then turned his head and looked to the left. Through the dim hole, the figure inside had disappeared.
Thinking of something, Yorkes did not get up, but began to let go of his three-dimensional figure.
Overlooking everything else, he saw a man exiting the church and walking quickly toward the bridge car that had parked in the street.
“The pace is fast and the strides are long. I guess the victim’s situation will improve from now on.” Yorks sighed inwardly.
According to the other party’s story, the victim probably persisted for a long time.
“That’s all.”
Yorks gave up on checking that church. After all, churches generally act as neutrals and will not interfere in anything.
That is to say, he is a bit different, always wanting to get involved and thinking about what to do.
“So no wonder the old guys keep targeting me.”
Yorks muttered inwardly.
“He keeps calling me a heretic and a heretic every day, and he is afraid that I will quit the church.”
After muttering this, Yorks stood up and left the confessional, continuing to go to the church to perform his duties as a priest.
It’s painful and happy to say.
What hurts is that I will always accept the negativity of believers and treat them as a trash can.
Happily, there will be rewards.
Until now, he has accumulated two available attribute points.
It was difficult for him not to doubt that not only the old men of the church, but also the system did not want him to withdraw from the church.
“However, I have more opportunities here.” Yorks thought as he looked at the virtual window.
In this way, the process of pain and pleasure lasted for several hours.
Yorkist sees the returning John Wick in a diorama.
The moment he saw it, Yorks knew that things had achieved results, and maybe the task would be completed after tonight.
Yes, at this level, he was too lazy to take action on such small matters personally.
After all, it is just a small task worth five attribute points, so the difficulty must not be very high.
John Wick walked all the way, entered the main building and greeted Sister Irene, then walked into the aisle on the right and finally came to the room where Yorkshire was.
In fact, this is Yorkshire waiting for him here specifically.
“Bishop.” John Wick looked at the bishop standing in front of the window and lowered his head slightly.
“I’m back.”
“Yeah,” Yorks turned to look at the God of Death who had changed his job from assassin to clergy, and smiled.
“It seems you have achieved great results, where is the girl?”
John Wick replied: “She was injured and is being treated.”
Yorks raised his eyebrows: “Did she succeed in revenge?”
“Yes.” John Wick replied sternly, then looked at his bishop and asked.
“Bishop, what will you do with her?”
“Deal it?” Yorks smiled.
“Why should I deal with it? The outcome of the matter has already been determined. John, you have to understand that her ending is not decided by us. We are not an organization or an official.”
John Wick understood the words, but had all the links in his mind.
Lucy successfully took revenge and called the police herself. The outcome waiting for her would probably be intentional homicide or other serious crimes, no matter what the family had done.
Because everyone has human rights.
Anyway, no matter what, waiting for Lucy’s ending will not be a good one.
However, with the intervention of the bishop, the police who were dispatched were turned back and the church took over. In other words, while Lucy succeeded in her revenge, she also avoided a series of consequences. Finally, she started over and started a new life.
The only friend who was also targeted was also rescued, which was already a good ending for poor Lucy.
Thinking of this, John Wick’s face seemed to be paralyzed, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
He liked working under such a bishop. At least nothing bad happened. Looking back on the past, he lived a very comfortable life.
This comfortable state of mind is really…
John Wick thought his expression was very secret, but he didn’t know that the person standing in front of him had clearly seen his expression from beginning to end.
This made Yorks a little surprised. He really didn’t understand why this guy had such an expression.
“Because of that girl?”
Yorks thought to himself, then smiled.
“John, it seems you admire that girl very much?”
“Yeah.” John Wick didn’t hide anything and nodded seriously.
“Okay.” Yorkshire smiled and walked towards his chair.
“Then she will be your responsibility.”
John Wick was stunned.
“Help her treat the sequelae of abuse. It is said that this child often sees a woman. This is obviously a psychological trauma after being abused.” Yorks thought casually, and a document on the desktop automatically flew into John Wick’s hands. .
“According to her statement, the woman was the person she met when she escaped. She was afraid that she didn’t have enough time, so she didn’t have time to save her, so she ignored the woman’s plea for help and ran away. So Lucy always thought that the woman was here to get revenge on her.”
Having said this, Yorks sat down on the chair, looked at John Wick who was already looking at the relevant documents, and then smiled.
“If I guess correctly, Lucy Zhuwa was stolen from her as a baby for some kind of research.
So not only the above things, you may also be responsible for helping her find her biological parents, because only a warm family can warm her heart. “
Looking at the relevant report in the hospital file above, John Wick couldn’t help but think of Lucy who was crying in his chest until she was about to die, and then nodded seriously.
“Yes, Bishop.”
Seeing this, York’s smile did not change and he waved his hand.
“Go ahead.”
