"Ronald, did you also receive the invitation from the Bureau of Investigation?"
When Ronald opened the door, Patricia walked into the house openly.
The girl, who was wearing regular clothes and holding a dinner plate in her hand, glanced and immediately saw the letter on Ronald's table.
With one hand, he took out the letter from his pocket that was exactly the same as Ronald's and shook it.
Patri [Biquge www.boquge.me] Xia then smiled and said:
"How about it?"
"How about we go together when the time comes?"
"No problem at all."
Ronald nodded and accepted the girl's invitation.
There was a pause in his tone, and then he changed the topic to another matter:
"But before that, I might go to church in two days."
"According to the Bureau of Investigation, they hope that during this period, I can conduct a review of the mysterious side of the force."
"This..."
"That's true."
Patricia nodded as usual and explained as she usually did in casual conversation:
"If you have not been formally recorded before, it is best to register with the church. This way, even if you want to be active in other cities in the country, or in some ocean colonies, this will be a very convenient registration."
"The ID card we have in Greed is actually pretty easy to use."
"And the church's censorship is generally not too..."
"etc......"
Having said this, Patricia raised her eyebrows.
She recalled the previous situation when Ronald used the spell.
She nodded slightly and put the tray she was holding on the table. She picked up a cup and took a sip of hot tea. Then she analyzed in a serious tone:
"If it were you, Ronald, you might be treated very carefully by the church, and the situation might be a little different."
"..."
It seemed that his tone was too serious.
Patricia raised her left hand and held it in front of her chest, adjusting her posture slightly and leaning half against the edge of the table:
"Of course, I don't mean to prepare you for battle."
"This kind of caution does not mean that the church will take any extraordinary measures."
"It's just that compared to the inspections of ordinary mysterious people, their attitude towards you must be much more serious. At least they won't just drop by a priest and be done with it."
"Patricia..."
After listening to what the other party said until this point, Ronald asked:
“Are you aware of the church’s vetting process?”
"For people in my situation."
"My words have been guaranteed by my family background since I was a child, so I haven't seen it with my own eyes."
The girl shook her head and denied it, but still told the information she knew as much as possible:
"But based on what I saw in Springs, the church's review generally requires you to demonstrate the power and characteristics of the school, and then ask some questions to conduct a personality survey."
"That's right!" Patricia's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately picked up another cup of hot tea from the table and handed it to Ronald, "Otherwise... I'll go with you then! Yes.
I am present, and the church will definitely conduct the review in accordance with formal procedures."
"..."
Looking at Patricia's expression, Ronald also recalled in his mind the way the priest looked at him that night.
Patricia's invitation at this moment.
It may be a really good protection for yourself.
"also."
Taking the tea cup from the other person's hand, Ronald also took a sip.
It is a completely different type of tea than the tea provided by the landlady. This is the black tea purchased personally by Patricia. It tastes fresh and refreshing, and just a small sip can make people feel refreshed.
Immediately, Ronald thanked:
"Thank you, Patricia."
"Even for this kind of thing, I have to trouble you to come here."
"It's nothing, aren't we friends?" The girl smiled softly, and the topic changed accordingly, "But Ronald, there is one more thing I want to tell you in advance."
Ronald nodded and said:
"Speaking."
Patricia then continued:
"When the banquet of the Bureau of Investigation is held later, I should leave Burrenwich. The task that my mother asked me to investigate the murderer has been completed. The demon named Lamer has been captured and brought to justice. It is time for me to return to the Springs.
..."
At this point, Patricia's voice gradually became quieter.
And Ronald also nodded slightly.
He could see that Patricia was a little hesitant, so he just waited quietly for the other party's choice.
After taking a few quiet breaths, the girl's eyes quickly calmed down.
Then, she said in a serious tone:
"Ronald, have you ever considered coming to Springs?"
"In the final analysis, Burrenwich is just a border tourist city. As the capital of our country, Springs is also the center of world civilization. Whether it is the mysterious side or the mass society, if you want to develop yourself, there is the best place.
The right choice.”
While Patricia was speaking, her eyes were fixed on Ronald without blinking, and her fingers holding the tea cup unconsciously used strength.
——She made no secret of her feelings.
So, after thinking very carefully.
Ronald also nodded seriously.
"In the future, I will definitely go to the Springs."
"But that won't happen now."
"In the city of Burrenwich, I still have some unfinished matters that I care about, and there are also some questions that need to be answered, waiting for me to find the answers."
"..."
"In that case, I'm waiting for that day."
After hearing what Ronald said, Patricia smiled.
Putting the half-drunk cup of tea on the tray, she picked up the plate and walked out the door.
"In two days, remember to call me before going to church."
"We'll see you there then."
"no problem."
Snapped--
The door is closed.
Ronald watched Patricia leave.
After waiting for a few seconds, he sat back in his chair.
The weather was cold, and the mark left by the girl's leaning on the table had not yet faded.
The tea cup in his hand was gently placed on the table, and Ronald's eyes were cast on the steaming tea, gradually drifting away.
Invitation to the Church...
What will it look like?
He is actually quite curious about the church organization.
According to the information obtained when looking at the information in the investigation bureau, in the dark ages long ago, the church has always been the main force in persecuting and hunting down mystical people.
Although it also uses the power of the original scripture, the church, an organization that uses faith to spread, has steadily suppressed ordinary mystical people in almost all aspects.
Mysterious information is not easy to spread, which is a very serious issue.
But on the church side, the false myths spun by clergy can become a bridge between church practitioners and ordinary believers.
What is the reason that would overturn this one-sided situation?
This is indeed something worth paying attention to.
