Start Cthulhu with priest

Chapter 16 16. Eleven

"Let's go now?"

An Le looked at the empty alley, and the smell of blood that kept going away in his perception, and it was confirmed that the other party had really left.

Although surprised that the expected battle didn't happen, Anle was still slightly relieved.

After all, he is not in his prime now after the chase and fleeing battle.

And the ability of the opponent is completely unknown.

An Le has never been afraid of fighting, but always prefers to fight with confidence.

As for Ross' last so-called "advice", An Le didn't take it to heart.

Even without mentioning the provocative meaning in it, he never regarded the old dean as an ordinary person.

He conveniently gave Butch next to him a happy ending.

An Le first braved the rain to pick up the backpack that was thrown nearby, and washed off most of the blood on his body in the rainstorm—it would be bad if he scared the children.

He went to the small warehouse to pack some supplies, and then hurried back to the orphanage.

He didn't bother with the fleeing Black Blood Gang members.

After all, there is no deep hatred, and there is no need to kill them all.

Killing is never an end, but a means.

The reason why An Le did something to Butch and the others.

In essence, it is the same as the Black Blood gang deliberately pretending to be vicious and vengeful.

An Le also needs to show his strength, and show that if he wants to bite him down, he will have to break a few teeth anyway.

Only strength can be respected.

Of course, it does not rule out the possibility that after learning about this incident, the Black Blood Gang will be completely enraged and turn their backs.

But after contacting Ross, he felt that this possibility was very small.

An Le: "Besides, I'm just an ordinary person, why would I like killing people?"

*****

Just as An Le thought.

In the next six days, the black blood gang did not continue to harass the orphanage, let alone intercept Anle.

For a while, a rare calm was restored in the orphanage.

The children no longer frown.

Even the rumors that frightened them so much that they couldn't sleep at first were rarely mentioned at some point.

The only regret is that after An Le moved for several days, the small warehouse was completely emptied by him.

In this way, picking up waste has become a matter of luck.

"I'm back."

An Le returned to the orphanage with her bag on her back.

"Brother Anle!!!"

Little Fatty took the lead and ran towards him first, and hugged his thigh.

The other children also gathered around, chirping.

"Brother has worked hard."

"Did you find anything good today?"

An Le: "Yes!"

He took out two mobile phones from his backpack, both of which were brand new with no signs of use.

Anle was lucky today, and found these two mobile phones in a family that had been rummaged through for a long time.

In terms of value alone, this is comparable to all the materials in that small warehouse, but such things in the slums are often difficult to sell, and it is no problem to keep them for your own use.

"It's a mobile phone! Let me see, let me see!"

Children, big and small, were even more excited, scrambling to touch this high-tech product.

An Le couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Things that are placed in the hands of everyone in the main city are precious treasures in their eyes.

Not long after the fight, Hu Yun came out of the small cafeteria and tapped the plate with chopsticks.

"dinner time!"

Little Fatty immediately put down his phone, and ran to the cafeteria without saying a word.

Do whatever you want, cook first!

The rest of the children behaved similarly. In their view, eating is still the top priority.

"One, twenty nine, ten, eleven."

"Well, it's all here."

Hu Yun served food for each child, and helped the younger ones fasten the napkins in front of them, with a faint maternal brilliance on their faces.

But in fact, she was only sixteen years old, and she was still just a child.

"Brother An Le, sit here."

Hu Yun waved to An Le, motioning for him to sit beside her.

The other children were unhappy: "Brother sit next to me!"

"Sister Xiaoyun is using power for personal gain!"

"Where did you learn that?"

An Le took his seat as usual.

Today's situation seems to be the same as usual.

But looking at the children who were busy cooking, An Le suddenly felt weird for no reason, looked up again, and glanced back and forth on the dining table.

Why do I always feel that today's dining table is extraordinarily empty?

What seems to be missing?

He silently counted the number of children again.

eleven.

One is not more, one is not less.

The old dean and Qu Lin sat at another small table, which was also their habit.

As if he noticed An Le's behavior of looking around, the old dean cast a concerned look at him.

An Le could only shake her head slightly, suppressing the feeling of emptiness in her heart, and focusing on the food in front of her.

‘Hope, it’s just my illusion. '

It's a pity that this absurd and unreasonable illusion did not dissipate with the passage of time. Instead, it took a tough attitude and straddled An Le's heart, which couldn't get rid of the unhappiness!

Until An Le returned to the room, he was still thinking about something he forgot to do?

Xiao Pangdun, who was playing in the small courtyard, looked at An Le walking back to the room, and said unexpectedly.

"Huh? She didn't pester Brother An Le today?"

As soon as he finished saying this, Xiaopang was stunned.

"Her? Who is she?"

The originally coherent and clear memory suddenly got stuck as if the machine had encountered a malfunction, and it couldn't function normally anyway.

After a while, Xiaopang blinked blankly.

"What did I just want to say?"

This little matter was quickly left behind by him, and he began to have fun again heartlessly.

*****

Not long after returning to the room.

Anle calls for the existence of the church from the bottom of my heart, and my consciousness is like sinking into the deep sea.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw the grand hall of the church in front of me.

He is already familiar with this process.

Turning around and looking around, the nun was wiping the murals on the walls of the main hall.

Besides, An Le can only stay in the church for three hours a day, and the rest of the time is static relative to reality.

That is.

From the time he was first pulled into the church to now, eight days had passed in reality, but only one day had passed in the church.

Even though it was only one day, An Le also figured out a lot of information.

For example, the nun's name is Serene.

Another example is that he cannot leave the church now.

As early as two days ago, An Le became curious about the world outside the church.

Since the group of believers came from outside the church and went outside the church, it meant that the outside world must have a wider world.

Just when An Le was about to open the door to find out, Sister Sai Lei issued a serious warning.

The general idea is——

The outside of the church was extremely dangerous, and even taking a single step could cost his life.

An Le is skeptical of this statement, but after all, there is only one life, and it is not yet the time to die casually, so it is better to be cautious.

An Le also learned another piece of information from Sai Lei.

Every day, believers come to visit.

An Le thought to herself: 'According to the time, it's almost time. '

Soon, with a heavy and decaying "squeak", the door of the church slowly opened.

Believers in black robes stepped into it.
