Chapter 651 Trap 2


Chapter 651 Trap 2

But when he saw a group of people on horseback walking towards his church in the distance, Hershey thought they were some nobles or rich people wandering in the countryside.

When the group of people approached, Hershey saw clearly that they were flying the banner of Count Alda.

He immediately ran out of the traffic to greet him.

“Thank you Heavenly Father, your arrival really makes me happy.”

Arriving at the team, he saw on the white horse none other than Paul Graiman.

"I happened to come to Totor Village today, and I thought there was a friend like you here, so I stopped by to take a look."

Paul smiled and said as he turned over and dismounted.

Friends?

Hershey was stunned. In fact, he and Paul had only met once in the church in Port Fulan.

"Quick!" Paul took his hand and "lead me to visit your church!"

"Please follow me, Count Grayman."

——

In the courtyard of the church, O'Donnell and Mariana continued to discuss the details of the operation.

"Odenel, did you find out that he would come to this village?"

"Yes, Ms. Red Flame."

"But this village has a very large territory. How can you be sure that Lord Grayman will definitely come to this church? If he just wanders around elsewhere, he will leave. Aren’t all your arrangements in vain?”

“Oh, then we have to find some reason to attract him here. I don’t know if our magic performances these days have any effect, of course. , we have other means..."

"Humph, I'm afraid it won't succeed by then."

Hearing this, O'Donnell rudely dismissed Mariana from the beginning. He looked up to his feet.

"Mariana, if other means fail, don't we still have you?"

"Me?"

"Oh, you are a very charming woman, maybe you just need Go to the village and say a few words to Count Grayman, and he will be willing to follow you to the church!"

"Shut up!" To O'Donnell's surprise, Mariana suddenly He was furious, with a look of hatred in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, please forgive me for my extremely inappropriate joke, Ms. Red Flame."

Seeing that Mariana was really angry, O'Donnell immediately chose to give in. He put away his laughter, replaced it with a solemn expression, and apologized in a sincere tone.

The action is about to begin. There can be no conflicts now.

Mariana did not continue to pursue his offense, but she also did not continue to speak.

"Oh oh oh!" Dessen nearby shouted softly, breaking the silence.

His eyesight was excellent. The priest of the church ran out and talked to the new group of people, and then led them here.

"We are really lucky. Look, the Count Grayman himself came over."

"What?" O'Donnell and Mariana were both surprised.

"How did he come so fast?" Odenel said to himself.

Of course, the target walking by himself can indeed reduce a lot of trouble.

"Mariana, Dessen and I are going to make some preparations. As long as he enters the scope of this church, we can take action at any time, but I will choose the most suitable time, so you must always be vigilant. , keep an eye on the count’s guards and choose their targets.”

Dessen also informed Nathan and Edward, and the master and apprentice went to prepare.

Mariana looked at the group of people walking slowly outside the church, her pupils opened.

——

“Father, your church is really unique!”

Paul raised his head and looked at a small church in front of him.

I couldn't see much from a distance just now, but now I walked in and saw that it was so simple.

It is not surprising to say that it was when he first inherited the position of lord. After all, the buildings in the entire northwest bay were low and dilapidated at that time, but now it is no better than before. This Hull It's rare that Father See can bear not to renovate the church.

According to Paul's previous impression of her, it should be because Hershey was not very good at "making money". Hershey blushed a little and said: "Count Grayman, the Lord of Light never asks his servants to make too much material contributions."

Paul laughed, "I hope you colleagues think so too.”

This country church has a large fenced-in courtyard where many types of vegetables are grown.

Walking to the entrance of the courtyard, Paul saw many people inside, especially many children.

"Oh, are there any activities today?" "That's right, Count Grayman..."

Hershey gave him a brief explanation and showed the children a magic show. things.

"Magic show? Then I have to see it."

Paul became interested. No matter which life he lived in, he liked to watch magic.

As he walked into the courtyard, the people inside also looked at him curiously.

The children did not recognize Paul, but regarded him as an ordinary person visiting church.

Three adults caught Paul's attention.

A man with a tall figure, a thin face and a thick mustache, seems to be a sailor.

A young man about the same height as him and with a somewhat unruly expression was performing magic tricks for the children.

There was also a tall lady with fiery red hair who made a deep impression on people, and her beauty gave Paul an indescribable feeling.

After looking at her for the first time, the image of this woman seemed to be burned into Paul's mind.

While walking towards the magic show, he talked with Father Hershey.

“Father, your life doesn’t seem to be very well-off.”

"Ah, I adopted several orphans..."

"I know that there are many good people like you among the clergy in the Northwest Bay, but their lives are not very good."

"This... we just need to serve the Lord with all our heart."

"For good people like you, there should be some gifts. So I plan to instruct the Government Affairs Council to increase a special expenditure."

"Oh, you are the lord, this is your power. Huh? Wait..."

Hershey's ears perked up and her eyes widened.

He heard what Paul meant. It seemed that the lord wanted to give money to poor priests like him.

Hershey's mind couldn't help but become excited.

Of course, he abides by the rules and will never take money that he shouldn't take. However, if an additional legal income comes out of thin air, I will not refuse it.

"Did I hear you correctly? Count Grayman."

"Of course." Paul nodded firmly, "How about calling it social service allowance? In the future, the people receiving this allowance may not be limited to your clergy, as long as they are people who have made contributions to society..."

"I...I..." Hershey was so excited that her voice choked with sobs.

"Thank you, Count Grayman." It took him a long time to hold back a sentence.

The count must have been sent by the Lord of Light, the priest thought.

While talking, the two came to the magic performance venue.

Paul felt a little uncomfortable.

Because the red-haired lady was looking at him with an extremely complicated expression.
