At that moment, Anjie's devilish voice followed: "Want to eat?"

Bi Su hesitated for a moment, swallowed hard as he looked at the still steaming grilled meat, and finally nodded slowly, "I want to."

Anjie's smile widened. "You can have it, but you have to answer a few questions for me."

"this..."

"Then I won't give you any."

"No! Then... then ask away. But, but there are some questions I won't answer! No matter how much you force me, I won't tell you!"

Hearing Bi Su's firm tone, An Jie smiled and nodded.

Lena, on the other hand, looked thoughtful, her gaze shifting back and forth between Bi Su and the roast meat. Finally, as if she had figured something out, she nodded, resting her chin on her hand in what she thought was a mature gesture.

Anjie then asked her first question, "Don't worry, I'm not trying to make things difficult for you. You don't have to answer questions you don't want to answer. Tell me your name first, okay? We've shared a meal together, so it's normal for you to know my name. Oh, by the way, you can call me Anjie."

Bi Su pursed his lips, seemingly struggling with whether or not he should reveal his name.

But when his gaze fell on the grilled meat in Anjie's hand, he gave up resisting. "My name is Bi Su, Bi Su of the star Bi Su."

Anjie raised an eyebrow. "Full name?"

“Yes. I don’t know who my biological parents are either, so I haven’t had a surname since I was old enough to understand things. My name was given to me by an old astrologer I knew.” When talking about this, Bi Su’s face was expressionless, as if he was just talking about something that didn’t concern him.

So, this little girl is a vagrant?

But why would a refugee provoke the Ocean Church?

Moreover, judging from their demeanor, the Aldebaran (毕宿) is definitely not a simple matter for them.

Anjie could guess that Bi Su's words just now were not entirely correct, or at least... incomplete.

Although she really wanted to follow this lead and ask further questions, Ange knew very well that if she pushed Bi Su too far, he would definitely run away.

Moreover, her intuition told her that this girl's identity was definitely not simple for the Ocean Church!

Thinking of this, Anjie's smile deepened. "Bi Su... what a good name. It symbolizes a star of harmony and peace. That astrologer had high hopes for you."

Bi Su lowered his head and remained silent.

Ange knew she had found the right angle. "But your current situation doesn't match your name at all. Why are those people from the Ocean Church pursuing you?"

Oh, don't worry, I won't tell anyone. And if there's anything I can do to help you, I definitely will. At the very least, I can treat you to a few good meals.

Bi Su pursed his lips, but the next second he suddenly stood up and bowed to An Jie, "I'm sorry, I can't say. I will pay you back for this meal in the future."

If I'm still alive in the future...

The girl swallowed the rest of her words and lowered her head, intending to leave.

But the next second, her arm was grabbed. Anjie was holding her wrist, looking at her with a smile. "You're just going to leave like that? Go back to that life of running around, hungry and tired?"

Bi Su shook off An Jie's hand, instinctively clutching the pendant on his chest, his eyes filled with panic. "What exactly do you want to do?"

Ange propped her head up with one hand, smiling as she turned to look at Bi Su:

"As I just said, I am a member of the Church of Light."

You've been in Haina City for so long, you must be aware of the recent situation of the Church of Light and the Church of the Ocean. Therefore, for us now, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. They want to find you, so we will protect you.

Of course, the condition for protecting you is that you tell me exactly what the Ocean Church wants? Or rather... what do they want from you?

Seeing Anjie's appearance, Bi Su seemed to remember something, and his expression suddenly turned very ugly. "I'm sorry, this is my own business, and I don't intend to tell anyone. I don't care what grudges your Church of Light and Church of the Ocean have, and I'm not interested in them."

In fact, she had encountered people like Anjie more than once during this period.

Without exception, they all set up schemes to obtain the secrets within themselves.

If I don't say anything, they'll break off all pretense of civility.

Fortunately, I have some skills, otherwise I would have survived until now.

However, it is precisely this point that has caused Ptolemy's enemies to increase from the initial Ocean Church.

This is one of the reasons why Pichitas has no time to rest or eat.

This period was the darkest time in Bi Su's life in recent years. He was constantly on edge, and danger lurked everywhere.

In fact, right there on that street corner, Bi Su knew very well that he had reached his limit.

Once discovered by the Ocean Church, there's no way to escape.

Just when she was about to despair, a girl with hair the color of warm sunshine appeared in front of her and reached out her hand.

Bisu admitted that at that time he even thought he was dead and had met the legendary Goddess of Light.

However, she soon realized that she was not a follower of the Church of Light, so how could she possibly see the Goddess of Light after death?

Although Bi Su realized what was happening, An Jie's warm smile and figure left a deep impression on him.

This is also why Bi Su decided to talk to An Jie instead of turning around and leaving immediately after recovering.

How could a child who survived growing up in a slum be tricked by a piece of roast meat?

Section 79, Chapter 18: Is there a problem with a gangster boss becoming a priest?

She looked at Ange, imagining that the girl in front of her was completely different from the scumbags she had met before.

However, the girl's tough attitude just now made Bi Su realize that this girl was in cahoots with the others!

Thinking of this, Bi Su's expression worsened, and he turned to leave.

Anjie paused for a moment, realizing she had spoken too harshly, and immediately smiled apologetically, "Miss Bi Su is right. I was indeed rash in this matter, and I apologize to you. Don't worry, since you don't want to talk about it, I have no intention of forcing you to answer. After all, our Church of Light is the most reasonable one."

Bi Su didn't expect An Jie to give up so decisively.

She gazed into Anjie's eyes, and the apology in them was genuine.

Could it be... that I really misunderstood her? Did she actually want to help me?

While Bi Su was deep in thought, An Jie smiled and gently patted his head from under the book.

"The Goddess of Light is a kind and gentle deity, and the Church of Light will only stand on the side of justice."

Of course, if you change your mind, you can come to the Church of Light to find me at any time. The Church of Light welcomes all suffering children.

Anjie smiled slightly.

But as soon as she finished speaking, Anjie felt something was wrong.

It seems like something bad will happen as soon as I say "Welcome all suffering children".

Could it be that this saying is incompatible with my birth chart?

While Anjie was doubting herself, Bi Su quietly wiped away her tears, put her hood back on, and ran out of the hotel, disappearing into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

"Angie's mom, that lady is gone." Lena tugged at Ange's skirt and peeked at Ange's chin.

Anjie then came to her senses and, after Bi Su left, simply shrugged.

After all, her main mission this time was not Bi Su; Bi Su was merely a channel for her to obtain information.

It's better to know the information, but if others are unwilling to tell me, I won't be too worried about it.

"Anjie's mom, Anjie's mom~"

Lena's call came again. Angela squatted down to be level with Lena and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

But Lena's next words caused a crack to appear in Angela's smile:

"Anjie's mom, did we bring any money?"

"..."

...

Ange felt that she had failed in her duty as a saint.

The Holy Maiden of the Church of Light, second only to the Lord in divine authority, commands countless sycophants—no, believers—who serve her faithfully at a moment's notice!

In the end, they even ended up dining and dashing!

She felt she would never forget the disheveled sight of herself carrying Lena and running for three blocks...

Of course, in the end she still sent someone from the church to return the money to the person.

But the embarrassing incident still made Ange feel like she was about to die.

"So, has Your Excellency found out anything?" Father Yaheng asked respectfully from another corner of the round table.

Emil was sitting on the other side.

However, judging from her dissatisfied expression, she was certainly not satisfied with her trip to the Ocean Church.

Anjie sighed and told the two of them about her encounter with Bi Su.

"So, you didn't bring her back in the end?" Father Yaheng asked, somewhat puzzled.

Ange rolled her eyes. "Of course! We're a legitimate church. If people don't want to talk or come, can I force them?"

The priest was taken aback. "Huh? You can't?"

Anjie: "..."

Seeing that Ange remained silent, Father Yaheng also fell into a strange silence for a moment.

Ange's lips twitched. "You wouldn't..."

"Ah! Please don't misunderstand, I didn't force the believers to do anything strange." Yaheng knew that Anjie was trying to find out the wrong thing, so he quickly explained, "I just require the believers to attend Mass once a week and receive a baptism of holy light, which is good for their health."

Some believers don't come, so I go to visit them and... cough cough, invite them over. Don't worry, we follow church rules and absolutely don't charge anything. I simply believe that baptism is good for the bodies of believers, so that's why I'm asking them to come..."

At this point, Emil added, "Before becoming a priest, Yaheng was the leader of a gang in the slums, but he reformed and is now just an ordinary priest."

Anjie: "..."

What exactly is the Church of Light?!

The church priest was actually a gang leader?

Just as Ange began to doubt the reliability of the Church of Light, she felt her skirt being gently tugged.

Looking down, I saw Lena rubbing her eyes, looking up at me with her little face upturned.
