My mother's love song

"Which side do you like better, Aoko or Arizuma?"

……

……

The inner door of the church was pushed open, and Qingzi walked out, scratching his hair.

"Rod, the priest wants to see you...Gu! Stupid Lu Jia, why are you here?"

"Nothing, just killing time."

Zhou Lai Lujia stood up from the bench and looked down at Rhodes meaningfully.

"Hehehe... What an interesting child. I had a lot of fun chatting with him."

"Hmm? Stupid Lujia, what did you say to him?"

Aozaki Aoko became very nervous and walked quickly in front of the two of them.

Could it be that she told Rhode that when she was a child, she fell in love at first sight with Zhou Lai Rijia who was disguised as a man?

Aoko's mood turned worse when she thought of the sins she committed when she was young.

Lujia winked playfully: "I just asked Rhode which one he likes more, Aoko or Youzhu."

"How did Rod answer?"

Aoko was slightly surprised and stared at the two of them with a blushing face.

"It's a secret. Right, boy?"

Rhodes and Lu Jia smiled at each other in tacit understanding.

"..."

There was a tone of self-abuse in her voice, and Aoko snorted in displeasure.

"Anyway, this guy must have said he likes Youzhu more!"

"Isn't that right?"

Rhodes immediately replied: "I didn't answer that."

"!"

After Rhode said this, Aozaki Aoko immediately turned away with her eyes wide open.

The blush on her fair cheeks slowly blossomed, becoming even more charming under the yellow candlelight of the church.

"Hmm~ This is a rare sight. This is the first time Aoko has such an expression."

Her friend's teasing brought Aoko back to reality from her trance, and she glared angrily at the woman with an auntie smile.

"Stupid Lujia!"

Then she turned her face to the side, and although she was facing Rhodes' direction, she did not look at his face.

"Rod, Father Yongli wants to talk to you alone."

"oh, I understand now."

Rod stood up from the bench.

"Sister Qingzi, wait for me here for a moment."

"Call me Aoko, stupid Rod."

After the boy walked away, Aozaki Aoko looked at his back and muttered softly.

……

……

……

In the inner room of the church stood a man over 1 meters tall, who indeed had the demeanor of a priest.

If I were to describe his appearance in one sentence, it would be a modern version of Kojiro Sasaki.

Although he is a handsome man with a feminine and androgynous appearance, his posture reveals an aura that makes people difficult to approach, and his sharp eyes seem to be able to expose darkness and evil.

"I'm sorry to bother you. Hello, I'm Wen Bingyongli," he said.

"I am the... what should I say, the owner of the documents of this church. Please call me Father Yongli.

You are Luo Dejun, right? I see. No wonder Weijia is worried about you."

The priest's words were calm, but it was clear that there was no emotion in his voice.

"..."

Rhodes raised his head and stared at the priest with neither arrogance nor servility.

Come to think of it, the nun seemed a little nervous when he walked into the little house.

"Lord, do you know why Qingzi brought you here today?"

"She just said she brought me to the church to meet up, but she didn't say why."

Rod shook his head in response, to which the priest smiled.

"In fact, it was me who asked Qingzi to see you."

"Father, are you?"

The man paused, then brought up a topic that surprised Rhodes.

"That's right. The day before yesterday, I was directly commissioned by a big shot in the church to monitor your actions in Misaki City."

"…watch me?"

Only then did Rhodes understand why the priest called him into the secret room for a private talk. It turned out that it was not just because I was a little boy.

"Oh, is it because of the Fuyuki Holy Grail War?"

Father Yongli did not answer Rhodes's leading question and changed the subject.

"You may not realize it, but the higher-ups of the Holy Church have already set their sights on you, Mr. Pretender."

"..." Rhodes frowned slightly.

"Why are you telling me this? You must be the one assigned to monitor me. Is it really okay for you to tell me this?"

"Nothing, this is also some kind of fate."

He said: "I am just a country priest. I am more willing to help the lost sheep at hand than the revelation from heaven, that's all."

big liar.

Faced with the priest's persuasion, Rhodes showed his ridicule without disguising it.

There is not a single normal priest in Type-Moon, and the man in front of him is definitely not a good person.

He was a complete egoist who would only act for his own ends. It was impossible for him to help Rhode so much for no reason.

"Just tell me your conditions, Father Yongli. What do you need me to do in order for you to turn a blind eye to me?"

The man was surprised by Rhodes' reaction and his eyes narrowed behind his glasses.

Although he knew that the person he was talking to could not be judged by his teenage appearance, the priest did not expect Rhodes to be so perceptive.

The priest sighed silently, as if surrendering.

"I have only one wish, and that is that I hope Mr. Luo will not allow such dangerous things to threaten the peace of this town again."

"........."

Rhodes remained silent.

The "dangerous thing" that Father Yongli was talking about was obviously the Pale Knight.

It is impossible that he, who was watching secretly, was unaware of the existence of the "plague".

Indeed, for ordinary people living in cities, the "plague" is a natural disaster more terrifying than any light cannon.

If you rely too much on the Pale Knight, you may end up in an irreversible tragedy if you are not careful.

"I understand. I promise you. But I have to add a condition as well."

"Please say."

"Who asked you to monitor me?"

Chapter 119 This is what my mother taught me in Hawaii [10/8]

"I understand. I promise you. But I have to add a condition as well."

"Please say."

"Who asked you to monitor me?"

Rhodes stared at Father Yongli and got straight to the point.

Since he didn't know the other party's purpose, he would treat them as enemies by default. This was Rhodes' way of dealing with the world.

What's more, he was a person from the church camp.

The enemy is in the open and I am in the dark, so I must get more intelligence.

Just as Father Yongli said, he is a pretender, a fraud, a pretender.

If you want to stay in this world, you should be cautious when necessary.

"As long as you can tell me the other person's name, I promise you that I will never mess around in Misaki City again."

Seeing Father Yongli's hesitation, he added.

After a long silence, the priest spoke.

"The person who gave me the order to monitor you... I don't know who it is either."

"……what?"

“I heard the revelation.”

Father Yongli said: “While I was praying, a voice from heaven entered my mind.

It was that voice that told me to keep an eye on you."

"Do you think you are Joan of Arc?"

Rhodes smacked his lips, looking uneasy.

Could it be that person? Did he finally remember me?

No, Rhodes immediately dismissed the idea.

That person is not so idle.

Like [God] and [Buddha], they will never intervene in human history at will.

In their eyes, even the destruction of humanity is just a larger historical fluctuation.

The so-called savior is such an indifferent existence.

As far as Rhodes knew, there was only one enthusiastic idler who paid so much attention to him.

"Did my answer help you?" Father Yongli said.

"Ah, thanks for the information. It was very helpful."

Rhodes nodded and changed the subject: "I heard that the priest's job is to help people solve their troubles. Can you listen to my troubles?"

"of course can."

Rhodes sat down on the chair and spoke slowly.

"Well, it's a long story. It's about a yandere childhood sweetheart who keeps pestering me all the time..."
