I was thinking randomly, "Could it be that because I'm the Archbishop of Heaven's Mandate, there's a class distinction between me and everyone else...that's why they're slowly distancing themselves from me?"

"Although Grandpa did do a lot of bad things when he was in power..." Theresa thought a little disappointedly, "But that doesn't mean that everyone who becomes the Archbishop of Heaven's Mandate is a bad guy..."

Unable to figure it out, Theresa simply slumped over on the table, slowly closed her eyes, and prepared to take a nap. "By the way, have you developed dark circles from working overtime and staying up late lately?"

Just as Theresa was about to close her eyes and fall asleep, she suddenly found a document.

Theresa, who had just seen the document, suddenly stood up and said, "It's over... I was so busy with work that I almost forgot about this important matter."

He quickly picked up the document, which marked the recent unusual movements in Changkong City. It seemed that a terrorist organization appeared there.

"We're in urgent need of manpower. We need to infiltrate Changkong City to conduct an initial investigation..." Theresa picked up the document, but turned to look at the thick stack of leave requests next to it. "But everyone is away right now."

"But..." He turned to look at Susanna, who was still traveling in the provincial tour, her expression alternately angry and shy. "There's still a candidate here. Although she's a little lacking in confidence, her abilities are still acceptable. The most important thing is, if she's transferred now, and Rita's not here... then there's no one in the office to look after me."

Thinking of this, Theresa's expression gradually brightened...

He put the folder under his arm, imitated the leaders in his memory, and slowly walked in front of Susanna.

"Cough cough..." He coughed twice forcefully.

"Well! I wasn't distracted, I was just thinking about the content of the work..." Susanna, who was awakened, quickly picked up a document in her hand and started reading.

Of course, it would be better if this document was not upside down...

"Susanna, you've been working very hard lately, and your abilities have grown rapidly." Theresa cleared her throat and continued, "So, as the current Archbishop of Heaven's Mandate, and in light of the Valkyrie Susanna's rapid progress and excellence... I have a very important task for you."

"Really?" Susanna slowly put down the documents in her hand, and even her tone contained a sense of uncertainty. "I feel like I've done a lot of wrong things recently and caused a lot of trouble..."

"So... I have made progress too?" Although she was a little self-doubting at first, she soon lowered her head shyly and said.

"No, you're actually making very slow progress, and you're not very smart... your only advantage may be your willingness to work hard." Of course, Theresa would definitely not say this now.

"So in view of your progress, we now have a very important task for you." Theresa said mysteriously.

"Oh? You trust me so much?" Susanna was so moved that she almost cried.

"Recently, an illegal organization has appeared in Changkong City. They are called the Faceless and have illegally occupied the entire city. I need to send you in quietly to conduct an initial investigation."

Theresa said with a serious expression, "But your first task is to organize the base, understand the basic situation, and wait for the support of others..."

"Yes! Lady Theresa, I promise to complete the task." Susanna was full of energy and morale at this moment as she had to carry out such an important task on the street alone.

"Well, Susanna, I am very optimistic about you. You must keep up the good work." Theresa nodded with satisfaction.

"Susanna...she should be fine. Even though the Faceless Men claim to have hundreds of men armed with advanced weapons," Theresa thought, "they're ultimately just a bunch of bandits who've taken over the mountains and ruled as kings."

In the context of the global infrastructure restoration after a major disaster, although organizations like this cannot be said to be countless, one will pop up every now and then.

Most of these terrorist organizations can be dealt with by conventional forces...

It's just that this "Faceless One" is a little more mysterious and the weapons he wields are also more advanced. Therefore, some special situations require the deployment of the Valkyrie.

"Besides, Susanna is only doing some preliminary investigations and will not come into direct conflict with this terrorist organization. She should still be able to complete the mission, right?" Theresa thought to herself.

This collapsed world is different from the normal timeline because the captain himself has experienced "death" and "return".

Like a very traditional butterfly effect, there was a slightly different turn in the "plot".

Seeing Susanna leave her office excitedly after receiving the task, the whole office suddenly became quiet.

Theresa curled up on the sofa, took out her eye mask and decided to take a good nap. "No one's watching over me now... I can have a good rest."

"Even the archbishop needs to rest." Although Theresa was able to kill the Honkai beast with one punch due to her smaller size, she was afraid of sudden death due to the long hours of overtime.

"But, days like this feel a bit boring... Captain, what are you all doing there?"

Chapter 314: Repentance

"A-choo! A-choo! A-choo!" Xiang Lai sneezed violently three times there. Although he turned his head in time when he realized that he was sneezing.

But looking back at Aponiya sitting next to her, she smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, Sister... I let you see me lose my composure."

"It's nothing, just human nature." She closed her eyes in danger and the dim afternoon sunlight shone on her. This holy nun seemed to be really blessed by God.

He was slightly dazed by the scene before him, but don't get me wrong, there was no trace of other desire in his eyes at this moment...

In those eyes filled with longing, there was only envy. She couldn't help but sigh, "If there was a book that could represent nuns, then Sister Aponya, right now, you would definitely be the one on the cover."

"Thank you for the compliment..." The eyes that seemed to be slightly narrowed there now opened in surprise and looked back at Xianglai who was also in the sunlight.

At this moment, Xiang Lai felt something sacred when looking at Aponiya, and wasn't Aponiya's expression when looking at Xiang Lai the same?

Even in Aponya's eyes, Mr. Xianglai is simply the spokesperson of God!

"If it weren't for his wife and lovely daughter... I'm afraid Mr. Xianglai would really become my colleague." Aponya looked at Mr. Xianglai beside him in a daze and thought so.

I couldn't help but have a vision... Two people dressed in the standard uniforms of a nun and a priest who had risen early in the morning slowly opened the door of this small church...

Countless pairs of people supported each other and spent a fulfilling and happy day together.

And at the last moment of evening, when the two of them closed the door together... in the sunlight that gradually disappeared from the door, the two of them looked at each other tacitly.

Then, their bodies gradually moved closer... Finally, their cheeks moved closer and closer... The dim light in the church seemed to indicate that at this moment, even the gods had temporarily closed their eyes...

"Wait! Aponya, what are you thinking about?" It wasn't until her index and middle fingers subconsciously touched her lips that Aponya suddenly reacted.

What kind of unclean thing are you thinking about! Aponiya quickly turned her head away, not daring to look directly at Mr. Xianglai, who had a holy face.

I felt that this was absolutely a serious blasphemy! I looked up at the cross in the middle of this small church, and most importantly, why was it in my fantasy just now...

Faced with...a scene like that, would the gods slowly close their eyes?

Could it be... was this an act tacitly approved by the gods? At this moment, Aponya's heart became panicked.

"Sister Aponia? Sister!" The voice suddenly rang in her ears, bringing Aponia back to reality again.

When I looked back, I found that Mr. Xianglai had come to my side without me noticing.

"Why is your face so red? Do you have a fever..." Those unusually clear red pupils were staring at him straight at a very close distance.

Aponya subconsciously wanted to lean back, but a big hand had already firmly grasped the back of her head, making her unable to move.

Then, their foreheads touched. Xiang closed his eyes and felt the change in temperature: "It is indeed a bit hot..."

After a few seconds, he let go of Apolonia without hesitation. The whole process was very smooth and gentlemanly, not touching anything that shouldn't be touched...

"When the body is damaged, the immune system automatically kicks in, causing inflammation," Xiang Lai said. "Sister Aponya, you should also take some anti-inflammatory medication."

"Oh..." Aponya lowered her head and nodded, her expression seemed as if she had not yet come to her senses?

"Hey! That Xianglai!" At this moment, Qianjie's rough voice came from behind the church, "I need someone to help me cook dinner..."

"Take some more medicine and go back to your room to have some rest, Sister Aponiya..." Hearing Qianjie calling him, Xianglai gave his last instructions to Aponiya.

Then he waved his hand: "I'll go get busy first..."

"Oh, thank you for your hard work..." Aponya's expression was still a little dull at the moment, and he just turned around and greeted like a machine.

Then he just stared at Mr. Xianglai's back as he left, until his figure completely disappeared from his sight.

Aponya suddenly lowered her head, wanting to bury her face between her plump thighs. Her face flushed red, and her eyes were like mosquito coils: "What was I thinking about just now——!"

I covered my head, clenched my teeth and tried not to scream...

Aponya felt that her mind was in a complete mess. "Mr. Xianglai clearly didn't mean anything else, but I was just letting my imagination run wild!"

"Aponia! You need to wake up... You are the servant of God and need to keep yourself clean... But it seems that God has already condoned your actions just now?"

"But Mr. Xianglai already has a wife and children, and they are very much in love...but this seems more exciting?"

"No, no, no! What on earth are you thinking about?" At this moment, Aponya's brain had completely turned into a mess.

Aponia, who had always seemed to be rejected by gods since childhood, experienced the emotional struggle of mortals for the first time.

Finally, after more than ten minutes of struggle, Aponya looked up and gazed at the cross standing in the center of the church, but the emotions in her heart could not calm down for a long time.

With her hands folded across her chest, the pair of large front armor pieces hidden beneath her thick nun's uniform were highlighted by this posture...

"No, this may be a test given to me by God. I have to confess to God..." Finally, Aponiya made a decision and walked slowly and limping to the confession room on the side of the church.

"God, please forgive my sins... I shouldn't have been thinking about that." In this small confessional, Aponia prayed quietly.

Chapter 315 Misunderstanding

The small space is a shelter for the human soul, and we enter this familiar shelter.

Aponya's originally anxious mood slowly calmed down...

"No wonder Fu Hua is so obsessed with Mr. Xianglai. If I weren't a clergyman..."

Aponia suddenly stopped praying at this point, realizing something was wrong. He helplessly thought to himself, "...it seems I still haven't regained my composure."

Just as Aponya was about to continue praying there and using the faith in her heart to calm her restless heart.

But he found that the door of the prayer room next to him was slowly opening.

"?" Aponya tilted her head in confusion. "Who else would come here at this time?"

Due to the limited size of the church, the believers who often come here are older people.

These elderly people living in a peaceful society certainly don't have any worries. If they do, they are just trivial matters...

Therefore, the two confessionals in the church often didn't have a single customer for months. It was only because Aponia was diligent that she was able to keep the two small confessionals clean and tidy.

So the slightly old door was opened, and the harsh sound it brought was keenly caught by the devout nun and aroused Aponya's curiosity.

But of course it only aroused a little curiosity, and Aponya didn't think much about it.

I started preparing to pray seriously again, but...

"Wow! Is this really your plan, Kiana? You're planning on doing this to the captain?"

A loud and violent roar broke Aponya's peaceful state of mind.

"Is that voice Fu Hua? No, Fu Hua isn't that edgy. It should be Miss Fu Shi, who looks very similar to Fu Hua in appearance and other aspects."

Aponia frowned and slowly lowered her praying hands. "Is it related to the captain? Captain? Is it Mr. Xianglai?"

This also piqued Aponya's curiosity. As far as she knew, the title of Captain was a nickname given to him by Miss Kiana and others who were very familiar with Mr. Xianglai...

It should be related to past experiences, but what exactly was that experience? Aponya had no idea.

There, Aponia slowly walked to the partition between the two confessionals.

Although this partition is not a solid wall, it is made of very strong solid wood.

The privacy of believers was taken into consideration when it was built, so the sound insulation performance is very good... However, due to the age of the brothers, many gaps have appeared in the partition between the two confessionals.

If you look closely, you can see traces left by mice...so the originally excellent sound insulation performance has gradually decreased.

Aponia just lay on this solid wooden board, listening carefully with her ears. She could vaguely hear what they were talking about next door.

"Ms. Kiana, Fu Hua? They are both here too." Aponiya heard that they were seriously discussing some very intense issue next door.

"We can't... leave the Captain alone... we must..." This seemed to be Miss Kiana's voice. However, it seemed to be quite far from the wall, and the sound was intermittent and a little blurry.

"Kiana, have you really thought it through..." Fu Hua's voice was a little hesitant and reluctant, "...Are you sure Rita and Yulan Dell...are you sure they can lure the captain there now?"

Aponya widened her eyes, wondering if she had heard something extraordinary.

Covering her mouth, could it be that Mr. Xianglai had cheated on her? Was that Miss Kiana found out?

As for the names Rita and Yulandel, Aponia had a vague impression of them.

Yulandel Kaslana is Miss Kiana's biological sister!

Miss Rita is Yulandel's colleague... and has also been to this small church several times.

Especially Miss Rita... While she was beautiful and charming, her eyes and smile seemed to reveal her "love" for Mr. Xianglai?

She is an excellent woman in both appearance and temperament, and she is very attractive to men...

Could it be that under Miss Rita's prolonged offensive, Mr. Xianglai finally lost control... But how could this matter be related to Miss Kiana's sister?

Could it be that... No, no, no! Before all this is concluded, I shouldn't speculate...

Aponia took a deep breath there, and Li Zhiming kept reminding himself that it was wrong to eavesdrop on other people's conversations here.

But as a woman, faced with such shocking gossip, she couldn't help but continue listening...
