I Can See Your Code - I Can See Your Code chapter 173

I see your code (173)

Actually, that doesn’t mean the original cardinal was the bad guy. It must be said that the values were different.

The problem did not end there, but that he had practical power and the ability to act directly.

Anyway, the thing I was most curious about was something else.

“Did the Pope announce anything?”

“yes? Well… … I don’t have anything. If you’re talking about this case, it seems like the atmosphere is just to move on quietly. There is nothing to hide, but it feels like there is nothing to make it bigger.”

“okay?”

I wasn’t talking about this case, but based on that reaction, it seems that the ‘announcement’ is still there. It’s a big issue that deserves to go down in history, but if it happened, there’s no way I’d react so dryly.

Seriously, it’s been such a big deal, so right now I’m in a rush just to fix it.

In any case, most of the doubts I had were cleared.

I slowly got up and got out of bed. Arina looked at me like that and tilted her head.

“Where are you going? It’s not completely better yet, but taking a little more rest… … .”

“There is nothing wrong with moving. It was very noisy from the beginning. Just take a saliva and it will heal quickly.”

“… … What kind of grandma are you talking about?”

Arina shook her head and asked me again.

“So, where are you going to go that far? If it’s not for the bathroom, I can go with you.”

“Incense burner.”

“… … yes?”

The guy who added playfully stopped immediately at my answer. I walked over to the closet, not paying much attention to the reaction.

I looked around, but the black suit was the only one with the uncomfortable and colorful decorations that I almost wore at the appointment ceremony.

He sighed and removed all the cumbersome things by hand. Shortly thereafter, neatly dressed mourning clothes were made.

I put it on the outside and looked at Arina again and said.

“Incense burner, if you know where it is, please guide me for a moment.”

* * *

As I am reminded over and over again, parasites only appear as settings in the game. It is said that if it is the original way, it is all about being quietly stuck in the prohibition of the denomination.

What happened to such a guy… … It must have been my influence too.

If I hadn’t done Khitan’s mission or had not come here in the first place, it means that this would not have happened in the first place.

“… … .”

I don’t even feel guilty about that.

Somehow, the butterfly effect just happened, but the root cause is different.

The denomination, knowing that the ‘disaster’ was sealed, but neglecting the management of the prohibition, is responsible for the secondary, and of course, the cardinal’s son, Salvator, who took the initiative and caused the incident, has the primary responsibility.

If you look carefully, it means that I did not do anything directly wrong.

However.

Nevertheless, as a person who knew the future, or from a purely human point of view, he could not avoid the sense of responsibility.

I have certainly contributed to a certain extent in the deaths of the priests in this case.

I counted the portraits on the altar. all forty-three. It is the total number including all deaths due to events that occurred outside.

It was a number that could be considered small compared to the scale of what had happened, but the few short lines of words below it made me stop thinking about it.

Andre Darwin, my dear friend.

Abbot Hubert, a respectable father.

Evan Esther, a true mother to the poor.

As I was learning the names while staring intently at each one, someone approached me.

“… … I didn’t know you would come in person.”

I turned around and looked to the left. It was the first time he had seen his face, but his voice was familiar.

“You are the bishop who was in the venue.”

“Do you remember me?”

“Because there was only one bishop who spoke to me while fighting him.”

“… … If that has been a hindrance, I apologize now.”

“It didn’t bother me that much. It was also important enough to convey even in such a situation.”

Lloyd Asher, Macao Varna, and the Oscar Family. All forty-three memorized.

I turned my head from the nameplate to face the bishop.

“I know that, in principle, only members of the church can attend funerals. However, as a person who fought with him, I judged arbitrarily that he would have the minimum qualifications. I apologize now if I have been a hindrance.”

At my words, the bishop waved his hand in bewilderment.

“I am not calling you to blame. It’s also a semi-unknown rule… … Above all, look.”

The bishop stopped talking and looked around. It was a place for mourners. Each and every one of them looked at me. They were eyes filled with respect and gratitude.

… … To be honest, it was embarrassing.

The people who mourn the loss are not the people who would have died.

For a moment, the fact that I was standing in this place felt like hypocrisy.

“Even if you are not a believer, none of them will think of you as an outsider… … .”

“for awhile. I’m sorry to interrupt you, but I have a question for you.”

“Yes. tell me If you’re talking about compensation… … .”

“It’s not like that.”

I looked into the Bishop’s eyes and asked clearly.

“I would like to meet the family members of the victims in this case, is that okay?”

* * *

Surely hypocrisy is hypocrisy. Whenever you do something without feeling guilty, you act like the perpetrator.

But even though I was aware of it, the words came out first. It wasn’t something I decided with my head.

The bishop, puzzled by my question, led me to the victims’ families, and I offered them a few words of consolation and a small gold coin. Forced by the hand waving that I can’t get it for no reason.

I thought it would make me feel a little better, but it got worse. Was it because the gaze of emotion returned rather than criticism?

“… … .”

Anyway, that’s all I can do.

The thing I should be afraid of the most is that I am afraid of such a problem and will not change anything.

I shook my head to shake off my thoughts and looked around.

The largest private room in the main office, the Pope’s room.

However, it does not mean that there is something flashy or large decoration attached to it. Whether on Earth or here, the value pursued by religious people was the same as frugality.

At the appointment ceremony, the clothes… … Well, it must have been for an event.

At that moment, the owner of the room looked at me and smiled.

“Are you surprised that it is wider than St. Sister’s room? It’s bigger, but it doesn’t really matter. I can only say that it suits the current situation of the denomination.”

The apparent power is greater with the pope himself, but the real power is held by the saint Arina.

Somehow, it feels like the content is mixed with bones.

It’s hard to see him always on the side of Arina at the appointment ceremony, but the original Pope is like that. It’s your own doctor, anyway, you have to obey the will of God.

If the crystal ball hadn’t finally glowed, he could have changed his mind on the spot.

However, at the same time, the Pope is not personally very negative about the birth of a saint.

Still saying that… … I’d like to test out how I’d come out if he showed a crush on the saint.

If it was normal, I would have shown the kind of attitude I wanted, but now I don’t feel like paying much attention to it. So I went straight to the point.

“Is the integration of the five major religions going without problems?”

“How do you do that… … !”

The pope changed his complexion in an instant and jumped up from his seat.

I answered calmly.

“You must have forgotten that I am the owner of the Lian Chamber. We also have some degree of information organization.”

“… … One day that was being conducted secretly only among the Popes of the Five Religions. Even the kingdoms and unions didn’t know about it… … .”

“Gathering information and analyzing it to produce results are two different things. I ended up carrying out the mission of a saint to be born for the first time in hundreds of years, and as I looked into it, I questioned it, and only a few strange things came up.”

“… … Are you thinking of me now?”

He nodded his head slightly. Then the Pope looked at me with curious eyes, sighed heavily, and sat down.

“okay. I don’t think you’ve noticed a few odd things. Some intelligence organizations are noticing that, as we expected. But how on earth did you know exactly that you were pushing for consolidation?”

“It was inferred from a combination of the Pope’s reaction from the inauguration ceremony and the information we got.”

“… … My reaction?”

“yes,”

I nodded and continued speaking.

“Actually, Cardinal… … So, what the ex-Cardinal said was not completely unfounded. In fact, having a saint in the Khitanism will make it stronger, and it will buy the borders of the kingdom.”

“… … did it?”

“No matter how much the Pope obeys the will of God, it is not likely that he has castrated even human emotions. But even after hearing that, there was no sign of concern on the Pope’s face.”

“… … Does that mean that the idea of integrating the five major religions is crazy?”

“Yes. I also thought that the leap was strong… … I can only think of one reason why the Pope is not afraid of the borders of the kingdom.”

As he drank the car in front of him, he looked directly into the Pope’s trembling eyes and said:

“To be as strong as a kingdom.”

“… … .”

The Pope did not open his mouth for a while and looked at me without a word. I glanced away and sniffed the scent of the tea.

I feel like something calms my mind.

It doesn’t have a luxurious feel like I bought it from Argon, but I have to say that it’s rather modest and stable.

The pope sighed once more, perhaps in vain by my witty appearance.

“Although it would be absurd to reach such a conclusion with that information… … I actually got it right, so I don’t know what to say. I won’t take any more shichimi. It was also something to be announced as soon as the city stabilizes anyway. However, why did you come to tell me that you knew it? It’s probably not to show off.”

Of course, this is something the Pope would be interested in.

Ordinary followers may simply like me for this incident, but the leadership cannot be naive enough to give it all away with just gratitude.

That question was a question of what I was talking about in a job that could have caused me to be vigilant, and at the same time, it was also about treating me as a dignified person at the age of a young man.

A little relieved at the respect, I put down the teacup and answered.

“This is to advise you to delay the announcement a little bit more.”
