America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 303 The Confession Room, Death

Taking advantage of the time when Abiot attracted the attention of the people outside, Chen Jianqiu had already quietly opened the side door.

This church is very old, and there is a high threshold at the entrance, which symbolizes the division between holy and secular.

Chen Jianqiu stepped over the threshold, gently closed the door behind him, and stepped into the church.

Opposite him is the church hall.

I don't know if it's because today is not the weekend, or because Thiago's people cleared the scene, but there is no one in the church at this time.

Sunlight streamed in through the multicolored windows, cut through the dust, and fell on the rows of benches.

Facing the gate is an altar.

This is a traditional Latin altar.

In the center of the inner side of the altar, there is an exquisite sanctuary;

On the outside of the altar, a copy of the Gospel was placed upright; right in front of it was an everlasting lamp, and six candles were arranged from the desk to the outside of the altar.

Ariana bowed her head, praying to herself.

Chen Jianqiu began to observe the traces in the house.

Light from outside shone into the darkness of the confessional and fell on a man's face.

His hand gently pulled the door.

A bald priest lay inside with his eyes closed.

Did the priest go to the toilet already?
Ariana decided not to wait any longer.

This is a kind of local incense in Mexico, which is generally only used by well-known ladies.

But for some reason, the priest next door did not absolve her on behalf of God as usual today, but remained surprisingly silent.

The whole altar symbolizes a tomb, the place where Jesus rests forever.

So far, he has not seen any trace of Thiago, and this matter is likely to be related to him.

If you want to ask who holds the most secrets in Catholic countries.

He took out his dagger from his boots.

A strange smell came through the window from the next cubicle, mixed with her own scent, and she couldn't tell what it was.

Out of consideration for the privacy of the confessors, the sound insulation of these confessional booths is very good, and the people outside cannot hear what the people inside are saying at all.

If you are a Catholic believer, seeing such a vivid icon, you will definitely bow down and pray devoutly.

A black cloth was hung on the wooden window between the compartments, and Ariana on the other side obviously didn't realize what was going on here.Still babbling confession in Spanish.

There was almost no light inside, and it was a good place for sleeping. He decided to let the bald priest continue to sleep in it for a while.

The compartment door was opened.

It seems that Ariana is inside with a man, and there is at least an 80.00% probability that this man is Thiago.

At the same time, in another compartment of the confessional, Ariana piously confessed to the "priest" next door.

But Chen Jianqiu was not.

He subconsciously raised his hand to block the light, and then took a good look at who broke in.

"Father! Father! Can the Lord hear my confession? Can He forgive me?"

He walked out of the confessional, and left the church through another side door.

The Virgin Mary holds the baby Jesus in her arms, lovingly overlooking everything under her feet.

He followed the footsteps extending from the door of this confessional, and came to a compartment door of another confessional on the opposite side.

When he finally saw the intruder's face clearly, surprise, bewilderment, and fear flashed through his eyes one by one.

A dagger was accurately inserted into his heart.

A letter fell from the clothes of the boss of the Crocodile Gang.

Therefore, this talent can also be used for early warning and tracking.

Finally, the footprints of another pair of women were found in front of the next door of the same confessional.

He groped around Thiago for a while to see if there was anything that could be used as a token.

Catholics will piously get into the compartment of the confessional, and confess their crimes to them through a small wooden window that cannot be seen opposite, in order to obtain God's forgiveness.

Chen Jianqiu sniffed his nose.

"Maybe, I just have a little attachment to him and a little affection for him."

Therefore, it is completely impossible to tell which confession booth is occupied by hearing from the outside.

This is a room with one after another large wooden compartments like newsstands.

The girl felt that her nose was out of order.

Chen Jianqiu walked to the confession booth and put his hand on the doorknob.

But in the next second, the face of the intruder was already close to him.

Thiago and Ariana are not here.

They, too, are lit.

He gently opened the door.

Judging by the size, it was that of a grown man.

Thiago, the toad who wanted to eat swan meat, also disappeared from the door.

He wanted to see if there were any other side doors or rooms.

That priest must be one.

Chen Jianqiu continued to walk forward.

This trace stopped abruptly in front of the door of a confessional booth.

As he and Holiday chatted on the way back to Roswell in San Francisco, Holiday told him that marksmanship talent can be used for more than shooting and night vision.

"I don't want to marry Ricardo. He's a fool. My father just treats my marriage as a deal with the Prigo family."

Chen Jianqiu felt something was wrong.

Chen Jianqiu closed the door.

Then, there is endless darkness.

On the side wall, there is a door.

So, he lightened his steps and walked along the wall of the church towards the back of the altar.

"Lord, forgive me, I really don't know what to do with Romero, he's an honest guy, a good guy."

Not surprisingly, Ariana should be in this room.

Chen Jianqiu raised his head and saw a holy statue.

The door was easily pulled open.

She pushed open the door of the compartment and walked out of the compartment.

Chen Jianqiu was not interested in listening, nor could he understand.

Chen Jianqiu stood up after confirming that Tiago under him was not moving.

He took a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his hands, then sheathed the dagger and put it back in his boot.

Chen Jianqiu squatted down.

He carefully observed the footprints that ordinary people could not see with naked eyes.

There was a little strange movement next door just now, but it soon calmed down.

And this room is the confessional of the church.

He looked around again.

"There are too many idiots around me, and that hooligan who is attached to my father, he is a toad who actually dreams of eating swan meat."

Since they met by such a coincidence, Chen Jianqiu didn't intend to let Tiago live to see the sunshine outside the confession booth.

And, right in front of one of these wooden confessionals.

People with marksmanship talent not only have an extraordinary perception of light, but also the details of the surrounding environment.

It was all written in Spanish, only the long list of names in the signature, which can prove that the author of this letter is undoubtedly Thiago.

She was ready to end her confession, but she was afraid that the omniscient Lord would not think her pious enough.

Chen Jianqiu tried his breath with his hands, and found that he was still alive, probably because he was knocked out, and then he was dragged in.

The man stayed in the dark for a while, and the sudden light made him feel a little dazzling.

He smelled a fragrance.

There are not only footprints on the ground, but also traces of a robe dragged out on the ground.

He was originally standing at the door of the confession room to guard the door.

In the closed compartment, Ariana was suffocated by her own fragrance, which made her feel extremely depressed.

The girl glanced left and right.

The door to the next cubicle was closed, but she again smelled the smell she had just smelled in the cubicle.

Chen Jianqiu picked up the letter and glanced at it in the light outside.

Chen Jianqiu put the letter into his pocket, then walked out of the compartment gently, and at the same time, closed the door again.

"Father! Father! Are you still there?" she asked in a low voice.

no answer.

His mouth, mouth and nose were covered, and his body was firmly pressed on the seat, trying to struggle, but to no avail.

Ariana looked down.

She finally understood what she smelled just now.

Red blood was slowly flowing out from under the compartment door.

"what!!!!!!"

The girl's scream resounded throughout the church.
