Irvine year 922.

Florence.

The heavy bell rang, melodious and deep, as if it were the remnants of ancient history. Just listening can feel the solemn heaviness.

The setting sun was faintly discernible behind the clouds and smudged most of the sky into a deep red curtain. The boys sat on the banks of the Tiber river, reflecting all this in the calm water, as if they were in the sky.

This may be the most pious moment in this city. The entire world is covered by the curtain of red. Everything seems so solemn. The chanting of prayer echoes in this magnificent city, accompanied by the constant ringing of bells, like In silence at the end of today.

Two lonely silhouettes sit quietly on the shore. This is one of the few times they can go out inside a day, but although they say they are out, they are also within the scope of supervision.

The priests in the white robe stood far away, but the distance was well grasped. They formed a circle, tightly surrounding the boys, keeping a proper distance, so that they were always in sight.

The blond boy raised his head and looked towards the priests a little bored.

“They have been staring at me.”

“It’s us to be precise.”

The boy sitting on the side responded that he swept the 4th week. In fact, there are many boys like them here. Everyone wears uniform teaching gowns, scattered everywhere, and their white clothes are shining in the sun.

Holy, but like a group of prisoners under supervision, but it is not the law that binds them, but the divine power.

“It’s annoying, they…”

The blond boy shook the head, then asked.

“What is your number?”

“042.”

The boy on the side responded.

“You seem to really accept the rules they made?” Seeing 042 accepting his identity so frankly, he looked a little surprised.

“Otherwise? They give us food and a place to live… I don’t think it’s much.” 042 replied, “And you just want to show off? You know my number.”

Indeed, the number of each boy is printed on their robes. From the time they came here and was accepted by Evangelion Church, they lost their names and had only cold numbers to replace them.

“You are a restless lamb. The priest knows that you secretly use your’name’ again, and you will be confined again.” 042Warning said.

Priests often describe them this way. They are God’s lambs, and priests are shepherds. Lambs don’t need names, they just need piety and obedience. But there are always restless guys in the lamb, they are eager to try, want to jump out of the besieged fence.

The boy in front of him is such a restless lamb. He has become worse and worse since he was subjected to “baptism”. Every child has seen bizarre and motley in that mysterious baptism. It is a little complicated to the point The boy himself didn’t know how to describe it.

But they did get something in that mysterious baptism. Some people were knowledge, some were psychedelic dreams, and others, like him, got names.

“047 You need to rest, I don’t want you to have trouble.”

042frowns advised.

He and 047 are very good friends. Before being accepted by Evangelion Church, they used to ride the streets of Florence together. Although they had been beaten a lot, there was a pause, but for these beggars, they were on the contrary. Have a free and happy life.

After being accepted by Evangelion Church, everything went the other way around. They were trained and taught to take care of food and shelter, but they lost a bit of freedom. Even looking at Sun had to be under the supervision of the priests.

“No no no, people always need something.” 047 said.

“such as?”

“For example, the name, 042, you have always been like this, a little too cowardly.” 047 grabbed 042’s shoulder, and said mysteriously.

“Sometimes, people need to make mistakes and do some taboo things. Anyway, it is also a small evil. God will not care.”

“Is that why you are so persistent?”

042 I don’t understand, as long as I obey obediently and honestly, why do we do those extraneous things?

“No name is wild beast after all, 042.”

He continued.

“But I am different. I have a name. I am no longer a wild beast. I hope you can do the same.”

042 is still indifferent, he answered faintly.

“Look, maybe one day, I will change under your influence…”

The two people looked at each other slightly, and then laughed, looking a little bit sad and sad.

“This may be the last time we have met, the priests said, the ceremony is about to take place, and only a few of us will survive.”

042 also learned the appearance of 047, with arms staggered and shoulders each other, and the shadows were slender in the sun.

“Yeah, I hope we can all survive. Reverend Lawrence said he is very optimistic about me, saying that I have a good chance of becoming a well-known figure.”

047 said, he respected the old man very much, he is the Reverend of all children, and the Reverend who will become the so-called Demon Hunter in the future, a sacred red robe, with extraordinary status.

“so good.”

042 is 047 fortunately.

“042!”

A priest shouted.

I don’t know when another group of people appeared in the shadow of the building. They were surrounded by an old man. He also had a red robe similar to Reverend Lawrence. The bright color seemed to be red with blood, and his expression was not angry. Wei, with a severe killing.

047 just looked at the old man from a distance, and felt an inexplicable pressure, he asked in a low voice.

“Who is that?”

“That’s what I want to tell you today.” 042 still seems to have several points of hesitation, as if he didn’t know how to speak.

“I was…chosen.”

“Selected?”

“Yes,” he said, “what they say I am, I will be assigned to another place.”

“Is that where?” 047 pointed at the old man, but 042 quickly stopped the action. That is the high-ranking red-clothed bishop and the old cardinal who holds power. Any disrespect will be accused of blasphemy. Then he was hanged. 042 has seen too many things like this.

“Who is he?”

“Lorenzo…Lorenzo Medici.”

042 answered in a low voice.

The expression of 047 was slightly startled. Although he had never seen this person, he knew too much about his identity.

Medici family, several popes in history came from this family, and now it is the largest tycoon family in the entire Holy Gospel Papal State. Except for the banking industry, it is involved in other industries, and it holds huge wealth. The Pope serves and manages the flow of wealth throughout Evangelion Church. Under the operation of this terrifying family, wealth has expanded like a snowball, continuously lending to small countries one after another, burning contracts in exchange for land.

The old man in front of him is the most outstanding of all Medici in the past, Lorenzo Medici. When he was young, the power of the Medici family reached the peak under his leadership. For a time, his power was even greater than that of the Pope, for the entire Florence The real ruler.

But even such a person would get old. He stood not far away, except for the bright red robe, his whole person was no different from an ordinary old man.

“042!”

The priests yelled impatiently, while walking towards them.

“It looks like I am leaving, 047.”

Looking at the old friend, 042 said bitterly.

“As long as you survive, you will always meet, 042.” 047 doesn’t seem sad. He knows that going to the old man is better than staying here. “But you know I hate this number.”

The pace of leaving stopped slightly, 042 returned to his head, and the pious lamb finally became restless, and he whispered goodbye.

“Then…bye, Mr. Holmes, we will meet again.

……

The slowly opened eyes are not the ceiling of all kinds of strange things, but the large amount of sunlight, which shines on the man’s face through the huge French windows.

“what……”

Lorenzo groaned strangely, then adjusted his posture on the sofa, looking for a more comfortable angle, and fell back again.

Hugging the blanket hard, everything is warm and very comfortable.

But it seemed that someone didn’t want to make him comfortable and made loud noises deliberately, but this still seemed unable to wake Lorenzo, so that person came over unbearably, threw up the blanket, and shouted.

“Don’t lie down! Lorenzo! You will rot if you lie down!”

Red Eagle screamed, and Lorenzo, who was lifted by him, screamed with him, just like two crowing roosters, screaming.

Lorenzo was knocked to the ground. He was lying completely flat on the carpet, as if sleepiness was still tormenting him, his sleepy eyes were dim.

However, Red Eagle seemed to be unable to bear this guy anymore. He dragged him up forcefully, but let Red Eagle use any force. The detective’s hob meat looks like remaining unmoved. It doesn’t matter if you have any knife, gun or stick to him. No.

In the end, Red Eagle sweated profusely, and sat down on the sofa Lorenzo had previously nestled in. He looked at Lorenzo angrily on the ground. The detective twisted and twisted like a plump caterpillar.

The whole body and mind are like being tortured, Red Eagle face looks sinister.

What day is this? Red Eagle can’t remember either. In short, he has witnessed Lorenzo’s transformation from a terrifying and powerful Demon Hunter to a social trash for so many days. He wants to make this decayed guy move, but… He can’t beat the dregs of this society.

The footsteps sounded slowly, and the pious believer whispered in prayer, although slightly, it buzzed in Red Eagle’s head.

“Robin, stop talking! Come and make him move!”

Red Eagle went crazy.

But Robin obviously didn’t want to pay attention to him. He glanced at Red Eagle, then at Lorenzo on the ground, continued to chant strange prayers, and disappeared into the stairwell.

“Then Joey! Come! After sleeping like this, Lorenzo is really a waste of iron!”

Red Eagle screamed, but like Robin, Joey passing by on the other side obviously didn’t want to take care of these things. He looked at Lorenzo’s saliva with a bit of disgust, and he shook the head firmly.

“You know I have a certain degree of cleanliness.”

“So! I didn’t see you disgusting when I killed Demon! Or you think Lorenzo is more disgusting than Demon!”

Red Eagle is going crazy.

As if some kind of strange erosion, under the influence of Lorenzo, Red Eagle began to move towards a strange direction and went crazy, while Lorenzo himself didn’t care, just like some kind of strange human observation, which tortured Red Eagle these few days. Brought great joy.

But now there is no fun in Red Eagle, just like a child who lost his toy, the detective is a little bit lost.

As if he had enough sleep, he put up his hand, propped his head and looked at the snow scene outside the French window, stretched out his other hand and grabbed it indiscriminately. Finally, he grabbed a plate of snacks from the low table and ate it casually.

Regardless of the howls of Red Eagle behind him, he sighed as if looking through the red dust.

“Life is so good…”

Having lived for so many years, Mr. Lorenzo Holmes, who did not know how many Demons were killed, is like conceding his mission, praising the beauty of life.

It seems to have traveled through a strange parallel world. There is no Demon, and there is no ghost church. These bad luck ghosts are roommates living under the same roof. Everyone warms up and talks badly in the cold winter.

This is too mental illness.

Even Lorenzo can’t believe that there will be such a life, and it really fell on him, but the fly in the ointment is that living with him is a bunch of rough guys. If he can, he hopes to have a few women. roommate.

But maybe it was thinking of something strange, and there was a sting in his mind, which made him more awake, and it seemed that he couldn’t sleep anymore. This nap was over, Lorenzo was dangling. He stood up and walked to the huge French window.

Looking at the afterglow of the setting sun, the entire world is covered with a red curtain, and it has several points of familiarity. It seems that Lorenzo has seen all this at some time.

Then there was a strange picture flashing in my mind, it seemed to be a farewell, long-lost farewell, the voice sounded from the depths of memory, whispering.

“Goodbye… Mr. Holmes, we will meet again.”

There was a strange sting, and Lorenzo couldn’t help covering his forehead.

This weird thing is getting more and more frequent. Since killing Reverend Lawrence, he has always dreamed of this weird thing. A boy said goodbye to himself and said they would meet again.

Lorenzo can no longer tell whether this is a dream or a chaotic memory. Sometimes when he thinks back carefully, he finds that his past is like broken glass, difficult to piece together.

He didn’t care about this. Lorenzo was a monster fighting with Demon. He was constantly polluted by erosion. It was normal to say that there were neurological problems, but this time was different.

Lorenzo had a strange hunch, as if a certain prophecy was about to come true. He didn’t remember the name of the boy under the red curtain, and he didn’t remember why he wanted to meet again.

But at this moment, the strange feeling intensified with the passage of time, it seems that he is coming, to meet himself again…from the depth of that memory.

As if some kind of terrifying is going to be realized.

“We will meet again…”

Lorenzo whispered in a low voice, like a dream.
