Chapter 86 Crazy Moral Kidnapping
The white police officer pushed the door open rudely, looked at the old black nun standing there, and asked, "Why are you opening the door so slowly?"
Ruby rolled her eyes at them, "I was praying, you interrupted my communication with God."
After she finished speaking, she knelt down in front of the statue of Jesus. Several police officers followed her and looked around, "Did you see any Chinese women wearing labor camp uniforms?"
Ruby clasped her hands together, "I didn't see anything, I just saw a few rude men."
"you……"
The police officer was about to argue with her, but Ruby suddenly put her fists on her chest and said devoutly, "Lord, please bless these ignorant policemen. They didn't mean to destroy your peace. When they are judged, don't send them to hell immediately."
The police officers were helpless. They knew she was being sarcastic, but they couldn't do anything about it.
After all, in Western society, clergy are respected. Priests are called fathers and nuns are called mothers, which is the same word as father and mother.
A police officer muttered to his companion, "They disappeared after following us. I don't know where else those Orientals can hide except here. Should we search inside?"
Another person said, "They must have left. If they were not around here, how could there be no car? How could such a big car disappear out of thin air?
Besides, didn’t the nun say that she didn’t see anyone come in? She’s a nun, can she lie?
The man snorted disdainfully. "It's hard to say. These women who never get married and claim to be married to God are all weird. God knows whether what she said is true or false. Robert, go in and search."
"Poor Robert!" Ruby prayed devoutly again, "My God, please forgive Robert for his intrusion. He is not a person who disrespects nuns. He was just driven by his companions to do something very rude."
Robert quickly spread his hands and said, "I didn't do anything."
Ruby glanced at him calmly and continued to chant: "Lord, please bless them. Don't let them encounter danger at work just because they doubt the nuns. Don't let them have car accidents or get shot. Don't let them break their limbs and be unable to retire..."
Several police officers felt their scalps tingle when they heard this, and they quickly raised their hands in surrender, "Alright, alright! Let's search somewhere else, let's go."
Ruby secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Luo Jiu, who was eavesdropping from behind, tried hard to hold back her laughter. She thought that only the nuns in Hollywood movies were good at moral kidnapping, but she didn't expect Ruby could do it too. She was stunned by these white police officers.
Ruby stood up to close the door, and just as it was about to close, Robert suddenly came back.
Ruby was startled, "What are you going to do?"
Robert clasped his hands together and said, "I just forgot to say sorry to you. I'm sorry, Mom."
Ruby nodded slightly, "God will forgive you."
Robert asked earnestly: "Then can you wish me good luck?"
Ruby made the sign of the cross on her forehead and chest, "God bless Robert, and give you good luck."
"Thank you, thank you, Mom." Robert left happily.
Ruby closed the door and Luo Jiu came out from the back, "Ruby, thank you for everything you have done for us. I really hope we can do something for you."
Ruby looked around and said, "To be honest, I'm currently trying to raise funds for a new roof for the church, and it will cost about two thousand pounds.
If you were rich, I would definitely ask you to help me do this.
But my goodness, poor girls, I feel it is more urgent to raise some money for you than to renovate the church roof."
"Oh, Ruby!" Luo Jiu couldn't help but hug her fat body, "Don't worry about us, lend me the phone, okay?"
Luo Jiu used the church phone to contact Lu Fengchun and told her that something unexpected had happened and that they were now in the church in Birmingham. There were still police officers investigating nearby, so he suggested that she come back to pick them up at daybreak.
So, everyone took a dramatic nap in the monastery.
At about five in the morning, when the sky was just getting light, Ruby came and knocked on the door. "There's an oriental woman at the door. I think she should be your friend."
Luo Jiu ran out in a hurry and saw a woman leaning against a pillar at the church door, standing in the cold wind and smoking a cigarette.
She was wearing a brown dress and a round-brimmed hat, and looked like a graceful lady.
But when she turned around, Luo Jiu recognized her at a glance, "Sister Lu!"
Strangely enough, the two had only met once and had a few hasty phone calls, but the decision involved a matter of life and death.
Maybe the relationship between people is so magical. Some people may betray each other even if they have known each other for many years, while some people are willing to take risks together after only meeting each other once.
Lu Fengchun immediately put out his cigarette and held Luo Jiu's hand with his cold knuckles. "Wake up the kids, and let's go home."
The children had been woken up by Cheng Yaoyao, and they were about to change their clothes when they were stopped by Ruby.
"Your clothes are too conspicuous, why don't you just wear this white dress? I'll treat it as a gift to you."
Cheng Yaoyao was moved and said, "Hurry up and thank Sister Ruby."
The children were very clever, and they ran over to hug Ruby, "Thank you, Ruby!" "Love you, Ruby!"
The four people also came over to hug the kind black nun and said goodbye to her.
Lu Fengchun prepared two camouflaged trucks with several boxes of cargo piled at the rear. There was a large space inside the trucks and a shed on top, so nothing could be seen from the outside.
One car is used to carry everyone to a safe place, and one is a spare. In case of dangerous situations, the other car can help them lure away the enemy and avoid crisis.
Ruby watched them go away, then returned to the church, preparing to start a new day with a melancholy mood.
But when she passed by the statue, she suddenly felt something strange.
A closer look revealed that there was an extra stack of pounds in the outstretched hand of the statue of God, a thick stack of ten thousand pounds.
There was also a note hastily left by Luo Jiu, which read: "Thank God, thank Ruby."
Ruby looked at the words and smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth.

As Christmas Eve came to an end, Liverpool was hit by a storm.
When Marianne woke up, she heard Jones yelling furiously downstairs. Officers above the rank of Liverpool lieutenant stood in a row, bowing their heads and listening to the scolding.
Anne was crying upstairs, and Marianne ran upstairs, only to see her daughter holding up a letter and crying, "They're gone, Mom, they're gone!"
Marianne unfolded the letter and saw that it read: "I'm sorry Marianne, I'm sorry Anne, but we have to do this. We're leaving, and we'll see you again.
Anne can stop taking the medicine after one more month. The powder is in the iron box on her bookshelf, which is enough for two months.
We hope you are doing well, our best wishes.”
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried silently. Suddenly, a burst of angry footsteps were heard on the stairs.
Jones pushed the door open and rummaged around for something. Marian asked hurriedly, "What are you doing?"
"I remember they took a photo with Annie last month. Where are the photos? Bring them to me and I'll have someone put up a wanted poster."
"No!" said Marianne sadly, "let them go. Do you really want them to die?"
Jones said angrily: "What are you talking about? Have you been deceived by them? They killed Andre, but I won't just let it go! Damn Oriental women, they are all liars!"
Pah! Marian slapped him in anger. Jones stood there in a daze, never thinking that his gentle wife would hit him.
Marianne silently shed two lines of tears, "You have changed. You have changed so much that I feel you are not my husband. I will take Anne to live in Fog City for a while. If I see their wanted poster in the newspaper, we will not come back."
Jones looked at his wife and daughter who were hurriedly packing their bags and sighed. "It's useless. They are with a group of children. They have black hair and yellow skin. They are very easy to identify. Even if I don't arrest them, the police will not let them go."
