Chapter 270 The Holy Light Office Opens, Church Representatives Arrive
In the days that followed, Li Yuan's life briefly returned to normal.
He spends his days either at home having sex with Megan or wandering around with Hellstalker.
Time flew by and the day for the firm to move to a new location arrived.
Although it was a move, the meticulous Devin had already prepared everything the firm would need.
Li Yuan didn't bring anything over at all.
I only brought a desktop ornament as a symbolic gesture to the new store.
When he drove Edward and Jamie to the new store,
A long queue had already formed in front of the store.
"My Holy Light, these people are here quite early."
Just as Li Yuan was sighing, a disheveled homeless man walked past him.
He glanced at Li Yuan curiously and asked:
"Hey buddy, is this where we line up for food aid? Why are there so many people?"
Li Yuan held the Hell Detective in his arms and said with a smile:
"It shouldn't be, look at how well they're dressed."
"Oh! That's hard to say!"
The homeless man curled his lip and said:
"For a while, quite a few guys in suits were competing with us for food."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan smiled and shrugged, then led Edward and Jamie toward the shop.
The homeless man watched the three figures disappear into the distance, spat, and said:
"You went there yourself! And you still say there's no relief food there?"
As he spoke, he limped to the end of the line and joined the queue with a resentful look on his face.
Li Yuan strode to the entrance of the firm.
Looking up at the "Holy Light Agency" plaque, I was slightly stunned.
At this moment, the old woman standing at the head of the line suddenly spoke in a high-pitched voice:
"Young man, you should have some manners. Cutting in line is not a good habit."
Li Yuan paused for a moment upon hearing this, then smiled and shook the key in his hand, saying to the woman:
"Madam, how can I let you in if I don't open the door?"
The woman's eyes widened immediately.
Suddenly, I remembered Kaplan's description of the Holy Light Church bishops before I came here.
She looked at Li Yuan, somewhat at a loss.
He stammered as he asked:
"Lord...Mr. Bishop?"
Li Yuan nodded slightly and said with a light laugh:
May the Holy Light guide you.
He then opened the shop door and instructed Edward and Jamie:
"Please maintain order. Those who need blessings should go up to the second floor, while those with requests should have them recorded on the first floor."
"Yes."
Edward and Jamie responded in a very cooperative manner.
They then began clearing the queue and letting people into the "Holy Light Agency".
The old woman went up to the second floor somewhat embarrassed.
Approaching Li Yuan, he explained apologetically:
"I'm so sorry, Your Excellency, I..."
Li Yuan chuckled and waved his hand, offering words of comfort:
"It's alright, madam."
The Holy Light understands your eagerness to join in.
The old woman bowed gratefully to Li Yuan and said excitedly:
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Excellency!"
Li Yuan smiled and gestured with his hand:
"Let's hurry, there are many brothers and sisters waiting to be embraced by the Holy Light."
Then, Li Yuan cleared his throat and asked seriously:
"So, madam, would you be willing to join the Holy Light Cult?"
"I do!"
Li Yuan slowly extended his finger towards the woman's forehead.
The room was suddenly filled with a holy light.
A moment later, Li Yuan successfully recruited the other party as his follower.
"Madam, may the Holy Light be with you."
The old woman felt the changes in her body.
He bowed excitedly to Li Yuan and hurried downstairs.
Seeing this, Jamie at the door called the next person upstairs to receive a blessing.
And so, Li Yuan officially began the long-awaited activity of blessing the believers.
Meanwhile, the queues on Wilshire Avenue...
This also attracted the attention of the police and the church.
However, thanks to Kaplan's advance notice,
The police didn't come to cause trouble; they came to help maintain order.
After all, with so many people gathered, some chaos is bound to happen.
For example, the homeless man who just joined the group,
He then got into an argument with one of the worshippers in line.
Unfortunately, both of them were pulled out of the line by the police and taken to the police station.
On the church's side, Archbishop Roger personally led the delegation.
They arrived at the entrance of the Holy Light Agency on Wilshire Avenue.
When Roger, wearing a purple round hat and a black priest's robe,
When they appeared at the entrance of the Holy Light Agency
The people in line all wore different expressions.
Some people dislike them, and some people avoid them.
Some people even looked on with amusement.
Roger glanced at Jamie, who was standing guard at the door with an unfriendly expression.
He cleared his throat and said in a low voice:
"I want to see Mr. Li Yuan."
Perhaps because he felt somewhat embarrassed, Roger didn't even introduce himself.
Even so, his outfit was still quite eye-catching.
Jamie looked Roger up and down and said softly:
"Hold on."
He then turned and went into the firm.
Roger stood at the doorway, feeling the gazes of the onlookers all around him.
With a displeased expression, he slowly closed his eyes.
At the same time, he cursed inwardly:
"You damned ants, what are you looking at!"
A moment later, Roger, who was in agony, finally received a response.
Jamie, who had returned to the doorway, said to Roger in a deep voice:
"His Excellency the Bishop is waiting for you on the second floor."
Roger, who had been sitting on pins and needles, breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
He gave his men a look, signaling them to wait at the door.
He then walked into the Holy Light Agency alone.
When Roger joined the firm
A little girl, dirty but with very bright eyes.
He was excitedly looking at the long queue outside the agency.
The girl was Emma, who had hitchhiked all the way from New York!
A sweet smile appeared on her face as she murmured softly:
"finally found you."
As Emma was about to walk towards the group, she suddenly stopped.
She glanced at her slightly disheveled clothes and immediately frowned.
"You're too dirty, you need to change your clothes."
She muttered something, looked up, and glanced around.
Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of a boy standing on the side of the street, staring at me in a daze.
Emma slowly walked to the boy's side and asked softly:
"Hey idiot, is anyone home?"
The boy, caught peeping, shrank back somewhat awkwardly.
He responded in a low voice:
"No...no..."
Emma laughed even harder upon hearing this:
"That's great! You must have a kitten at home that can do backflips, right?"
"what?"
The boy stared blankly, completely bewildered.
Then, realizing what was happening, he quickly nodded in response:
"some!"
The boy scratched his head of blond curly hair and said with a silly grin:
"My name is Levi, what's yours?"
Emma didn't answer, but walked over to Levi.
She gave him an anxious nudge and urged him mysteriously:
"Take me home first, I'll tell you later."
Levi nodded excitedly and led the girl toward his home.
Inside the Holy Light Agency, Li Yuan sat in a chair with a smile on his face.
He asked Roger in a relaxed tone:
"Are you the Archbishop of the Diocese of Los Angeles?"
Faced with Li Yuan's question, Roger frowned slightly in annoyance and nodded in response:
"Yes, Mr. Li Yuan."
Li Yuan nodded, then asked with a hint of doubt:
"So, Archbishop Roger, what brings you here to see me?"
Roger cleared his throat upon hearing this and said seriously:
"That's right, Mr. Li Yuan."
Based on the relevant provisions of the Canon Law, I request that you cease recruiting believers in public.
This is...this is heresy...
Roger himself seemed somewhat unsure of himself when he said this.
Her eyes darted away, avoiding direct eye contact with Li Yuan.
