Chapter 171 Crisis
Saeko stayed in her apartment, feeling restless.
After such a long time, there was no feedback from any of the three disciple knights.
This made Saeko feel anxious.
Did they complete their mission and return? That is a possibility.
This group of proud disciple knights only bows to the Archbishop and the Lord.
An outsider like me, even a Japanese, would not get any respect from them, so it was normal for them not to say hello.
but.
If the mission was accomplished, why is there no news about Abe Nosuke?
The death of a member of Congress is big news.
Saeko paced back and forth, feeling increasingly uneasy.
At this moment, the cell phone on the sofa vibrated and rang.
Saeko turned on the video.
Bridger Lowry, Regional Bishop of the West.
"Bishop Bridger, Saeko salutes you." Saeko said, making a Protestant gesture.
In the mobile phone screen, Bishop Bridger Lowry was standing by the swimming pool in the villa, and cheers from women could be heard from time to time.
He was shirtless at the moment, wearing only a bath towel, and his face was still red.
Although he was clearly venting his feelings happily just now, Bridger Lowry's expression was very serious at the moment: "Ms. Saeko, what on earth happened in Tokyo?"
Saeko had a bad feeling in her heart: "Bishop Bridger, I don't understand what you mean."
"I just received news that all three Disciple Knights were killed in Tokyo." Bridger Lowry's bald forehead was covered with beads of sweat as he spoke in a harsh voice, "This has never happened in recent years. Even when Protestantism and other religions have had friction, there has never been such a huge loss."
"Not long ago, one of the twelve holy spirits of the Kingdom of Heaven died inexplicably, and his throne was taken away. His whereabouts are currently unknown. This angered the Kingdom of Heaven, and a large-scale search for the throne is underway."
"Now three disciple knights have died in Tokyo for unknown reasons. This kind of thing happened at this time, not to mention that it is something I am responsible for."
As Bridger was raging, a brown woman in a bikini stumbled over with a half-empty whiskey bottle.
She hugged Bishop Bridger from behind and said in a soft voice, "Come on, honey, let's do it again."
Bridger Lowry had a ferocious look on his face. He grabbed the woman's head with his big hands and slammed it hard against the iron handrail next to the swimming pool.
With a clang sound.
Blood splattered on the woman's head, and as Bridger Lowry's big hand let go, she fell to the ground like a piece of rag.
He drooped and rolled into the swimming pool.
The swimming pool behind Bridger Lowry instantly turned into a pool of blood.
"Ms. Saeko, we cannot let their three knights die in vain." Bridger Lowry said sternly, "Please investigate the cause of their death immediately and find out at whose hands they died."
"Their mission this time is to assassinate Councillor Abe Nosuke and Bishop Bridger." Saeko swallowed and said, "They should have died at the hands of Abe Nosuke."
"You don't need to remind me of their mission, Saeko." Bridger Lowry didn't even bother to call her Miss. "Everyone knows that this is a great possibility, but I don't want a possibility, and the Archbishop doesn't want a possibility either."
"What we want is the exact cause. We need to determine whether the murderer is Abe Nojaku or someone behind her. If it's not her forces, then who jumped out? Who is against us? We want the facts. Do you understand?"
"No matter who it is, we need certainty rather than possibility. We need to assess the strength of our opponent. Training a disciple knight is not that simple. We cannot continue to suffer unlimited losses."
"Understood, Bishop Bridger." Saeko nodded: "I will start an investigation immediately."
"And what about Abe Nosuke and another congressman named what?" Bridger Lowry said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Shiraishi Nagihiru."
"Yes, both of them must die. This A-level mission has been upgraded to SS-level. I don't want the people I send later to die in such an unclear way. We need to know the enemy's strength."
"Yes, Bishop Bridger." Saeko nodded: "Can I contact the Saint? Just to investigate."
“Okay.” Bridger Lowry exhaled, “As soon as possible, Saeko, the situation is difficult now. If I fall, it will be difficult for you to say anything.”
Hang up the video call.
Saeko's mind was in turmoil, wondering who had done this.
The three disciple knights are all dead. Abe Noque is definitely not that powerful, otherwise he would not have come back alive when David tried to attack him for the first time.
Who is the person behind her?
I have only been away for some time, and Tokyo has become incomprehensible to me.
besides.
What happened to that saint? Why can’t we get in touch with her?

The Underground Research Institute of the University of Tokyo.
Is this the throne of God? Zhou Yuanyan curiously closed his eyes and examined the mark in Fang's left hand.
"Why don't you stay and play?" Fang Zuo gestured to hand it to him.
"If my realm hadn't regressed, I would really use it for research." Zhou Yuanyan shook his head, "But my realm has regressed so much, and I've taken another path. I can't suppress this thing anymore. I don't want to attract a group of religious lunatics to destroy my laboratory."
"Besides, this thing is of no use to you and me. We are not in the same system of faith and incense."
"I heard what the Holy Spirit said about the New Testament kingship." Fang Zuo said.
"It's a bit troublesome to explain it to you in detail. You can think of it as a kind of Protestant contract, a management contract between God and man. It's like although believers need God, God needs believers even more."
"These religions rely purely on faith and incense to achieve godhood. They never cultivate themselves. All the sources of their power are based on faith."
"If there are not enough believers, even the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven will collapse, not to mention the throne of God. However, the God in Heaven has no way to control the believers, so the New Testament monarchy was born to manage the believers on behalf of God, such as the archbishop of Protestantism, and other religions of this type."
Fang Zuo frowned: "Can this kind of contract be plundered?"
"Do you think this is a tiger talisman? You can use it if you grab it." Zhou Yuanyan said with a smile: "However, with your ability, you can find an archbishop to try it out."

A woman in a black dress appeared at an abandoned manor in the mountains on the outskirts of Tokyo.
She has a graceful figure, an oval face and a slender neck, which look frighteningly white against the black dress.
The manor was badly damaged, with broken walls and beams everywhere.
A group of construction workers were busy cleaning up the ruins.
"Miss, what are you doing here? This is a private place and no visitors are allowed." A foreman walked forward.
"Excuse me, uncle. I was jogging past here and came in to take a look." The woman smiled.
"Let's go, there's nothing to see here." Another worker came over and said, "I heard this place is..."
"Shut up, Jubei, and don't talk nonsense!" the foreman shouted.
"Yes, yes." The worker scratched his head embarrassedly: "Let's go, Miss, we are going to get off work soon. It will be difficult to walk on the mountain road when it gets dark, and it is not safe."
"Thank you, uncles. I'll leave right away." The woman turned around, took one last look, and left the manor.
"Jubei, you, can you talk nonsense like that?" The foreman patted the worker's shoulder unhappily and said in a low voice.
"Haha, boss, thanks for reminding me. Eh? Where did that lady go? She disappeared so quickly?" The worker just turned around and the woman disappeared.
"Speaking of Jubei, what did that lady look like? Do you remember?" The foreman touched his head in confusion: "Why can't I remember her appearance at all?"
"Boss, what you said is true. I can't remember what he looks like either." The worker said in surprise.
They both shuddered at the same time.
I heard that many people died here. It can't be... "Hurry up, hurry up." The foreman hurriedly called the workers: "It's time to get off work, everyone go home early to hug your wife."
The woman in the black dress walked gracefully down the mountain.
Place one finger in the center of your forehead.
The deaths of those old men were so clean, how come a powerful person suddenly appeared around Rena Morisawa?
Where did she find these people? Could it be that the Yamaguchi-gumi has a backer? It seems that we need to find a way to find out, otherwise, if we just kill Morisawa Rena, the Yamaguchi-gumi may not be able to return to our hands.
How can I get closer to Rena Morisawa?
The woman in the black dress pondered.
