two months later.
Omen.
A building has risen from the ground, and it is almost completed now. During Lorraine's coma for a month, the project was in full swing.Those who know Lorraine are only brothers.Liu Wanchuan and Lin Jiadong knew that Brother Lin was definitely coming to Omen, so they should worry about it early and save trouble.
Now, Lorraine, who comes here every day to see it, feels quite satisfied in his heart.
Once upon a time, he was even a little bastard who couldn't even eat in Zhengzhou City, relying on the stinky money at home, he was stupid and squandered.But now, he is actually going to open a casino in Las Vegas, Asia. Behind him, there are the support of the wealthy Han family, Song family and Kang family in the capital, and even the Italian Stu International Company. as backing.
Watching the tall buildings get taller and taller day by day, it feels like looking at the epitome of my own life. Step by step is very difficult, very careful, and very courageous to push to the top.
This is Lorraine's state of mind, full of pride, above Asia's No. [-] casino, like a white pigeon flying high in front of the Ruins of St. Paul's.
However, the state is the state. In the past two months, to a certain extent, Lorraine's life has not been satisfactory.
Because...he hasn't found a croupier who is enough to hold the game.
During this period of time, he took Liu Wanchuan to all kinds of poker shops, large and small, and even looked for some world-class players who had won the dazzling rankings in the Gambling King Competition, but...they either already have power behind them, or Did not pass Lorraine's assessment.
Although he doesn't know how to gamble, he knows one thing... Gambling with cards is the same as gambling with life, momentum is the most important point.
From them, Lorraine has never seen such a glimmer of light.
"Xiaolin, it seems that there will be a typhoon today. You should come back earlier. Auntie made beef brisket soup for you..." Lorraine stood far away from the unfinished building, squinted her eyes, and answered Qin Wanshu's phone.
"Well, okay... tell me some more things, and I'll go back."
After Lorraine hung up the phone, the sky suddenly changed color, and a howling typhoon swept in...
Uh!Not so accurate!Just come! !
Hurrah!The storm came as soon as it was said, and Lorraine walked here alone in a low-key manner today, so...he had to quickly find a place to hide and deal with this unexpected situation!Without much hesitation, Lorraine turned around and ran quickly into a small church. ~
Chapter 693 Priest, Genius
"Sir, do you need to pray?"
As soon as Lorraine got into the church, he suddenly heard a young but very old voice.
This voice sounded somewhat weird, as if a five or six-year-old child was playing an official accent. The young voice was full of sophistication and sophistication.
Lorraine was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously looked forward.
A medium-sized, very thin figure, with his back to him, raised his head to face the cross in front of the church. The tragic Jesus, the holy light of mercy, through the colorful glass windows of the church, projected a mysterious, ancient and A sense of ease.
This figure is wearing a priest's robe, which should be the priest of this church.
"Hehe, thank you priest, no need, I just came in to escape the wind and rain." Lorraine waved his hands with a smile, and then found a seat to sit down very familiarly, "I think fraternal Jesus, don't you?" Will you watch me outside in the rain?"
"Everything in the world is sinful, sir, are you sure you don't need to pray or repent?" The priest still didn't turn around, still looking up at Jesus on the huge cross motionlessly, and said slowly in his young but old voice. the way.
Lorraine smiled, and suddenly became interested in what the priest said.
"Oh? Everything in the world is sinful? Father, if this is the case, if all the gamblers in Omen come to pray, wouldn't God be too busy?"
"God is God and cannot die."
"Then why don't everyone confess to each other? Do you have to confess to God? Believe me, there is no one who does not envy an immortal existence."
"This is the key to the difference between God and all creatures, because he is a truly fraternal existence."
"He is fraternal because he will not die. But people will die. Everyone is working hard to survive. If you are not careful, you will fail, and if you are not careful, you will die. Therefore, everyone has no time for fraternity. For An immortal being, fraternity, may be the only thing he can do, maybe this is the only sustenance of his soul. So, it is not people who need to pray and repent, but God, who needs to hear prayers. People like to pay for their sins Looking for an excuse, and God is just a lonely god."
"..." Hearing this, the thin and even old priest hesitated for a moment, wondering if Lorraine heard it wrong, the priest seemed to smile playfully, "Sir, what's your name?"
"Everything in the world is sinful. You can call me a 'sinner'. In fact, I am guilty. It's just that I am not going to repent now, because the real meaning of repentance is to correct. But I have chosen a certain path, so it is impossible to correct. , Correction, will send me to see God in advance. Repentance can only alleviate the guilt in my heart, and it is useless to cure the symptoms, not the root cause. I think, when I really want to repent, God will not accept my repentance .I want to live longer and go to hell later than to meet God sooner."
Lorraine's words completely aroused the priest's interest.
The thin priest finally turned around, turned to look at Lorraine, squinted his eyes for a long time, there was no trace of expression on his face, but in his narrowed eyes, it seemed to be just right. all his emotions.
Of course, this emotion was only fleeting, hidden in his calm eyes.
This is a weirdo.
This was Lorraine's first impression of this priest.
Under the old-looking temperament of the priest, he turned out to be a very young man, with a fair face, blue eyes, and white skin, a little sickly, probably because he was too thin.There is also a very important point, this guy is not a Chinese, but a European and American.Judging by age, at most it is two or three years older than me, Lorraine.
"Father, you are younger than I thought."
"Mr. 'Sinner', you are also younger than I thought."
Lorraine shook his head with a chuckle, and looked back at the outside of the church. There was still a violent storm and howling.It seems that I need to hide in the church for a while longer.But it also seems like a good choice, this priest, looks very interesting.
He couldn't understand, how could such a young man have such an old look?
"Phew, with such a heavy wind and rain, I guess I'll have to stay here until night." Lorraine shrugged helplessly, "But this seems quite interesting. A sudden wind and rain made me enter a church that I had never been in before. This It really seems to be arranged by God."
"Mr. 'Sinner', actually you don't need to wait so long." The young priest walked slowly behind Lorraine, squinting his eyes for a while to make the storm outside, and then walked to the door deep Taking a deep breath, "According to my observation, this typhoon should leave Omen within two hours."
"Oh? How can you see it?"
"Based on wind speed, wind direction, and air humidity."
"Hehe, but looking at your behavior just now, Mr. Priest, it is more like judging by sight and smell. If your judgment is accurate, then aren't you a mobile weather observer?"
"No, weather observers have errors. Even the most sophisticated weather observers in the world currently have an error rate of 90.00% of the difference of [-]. And my personal observations and inferences, the accuracy rate can be It reached [-]%. However, according to practice, I have made thousands of weather forecasts, and there has not been a single error. That is to say, in theory, I have errors, but in practice, I am accurate.”
These words, coming out of a priest's mouth, really seemed a little weird.
Lorraine smiled playfully: "Since the priest is so talented, why don't you go to MIT to study in a meteorology department?"
After pondering for a while, the priest seemed to have thought of something, and said slowly with a strange expression in his eyes: "Actually, I already have a Ph. .”
Hearing this, Lorraine paused for a while, then changed his mind and smiled.
Obviously, Lorraine thought the priest was joking, but...
Laughing and laughing, Lorraine's complexion sank slightly. He looked at the priest's serious look, but it didn't look like he was joking.
At this time, Lorraine didn't know how to continue the conversation. He coughed and cleared his throat twice, and he said casually: "You are already a doctor at such a young age, then priest, you are really a genius."
"genius?"
For some reason, when Lorraine said this word, the priest frowned slightly, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes: "I hate this title."
"Hate this title?" Lorraine became more and more interested, "It's the first time I heard it. Everyone should want to be a genius, right?"
