Exorcist's Self-Cultivation-Chapter 690 - 687 return to New York

Chapter 690: 687, return to New York Chapter 690: 687, return to New York Alex might or might not believe, but Du Wei believed for sure.

Standing beside them, Ryan heard this and began clapping his hands excitedly, “Director! I will always believe in you, Ryan forever!”

Clap clap clap… the applause was loud.

This immediately ruined the somewhat touched feelings Alex had.

She humphed in displeasure, suppressing the emotions in her heart.

She said directly, “Ryan? Is he the subordinate you spoke of before?”

He doesn’t seem very bright.

...

With a light smile, Du Wei knew that this matter was finally over and introduced him to Alex, “He is the Ryan I mentioned. Though I call him a subordinate, he is actually a friend. The reason I came to Switzerland was to fetch him.”

Alex uttered an “Oh,” and nodded to Ryan, “I am Du Wei’s fiancée, Alex. Hello, Ryan.”

Ryan exclaimed, “Fiancée? Director, we are in the medical field! How come you have a fiancée, and I don’t even have a girlfriend?”

Du Wei coughed and said, “That’s because you have devoted all your time to the ocean of medical science, and I have not, which means, you will definitely achieve more in medicine than me in the future.”

Ryan suddenly realized, “So that’s how it is. But, I’m a noble, and I ought to have a partner too. If I don’t have one, who will inherit my title in the future?”

Du Wei said with a speechless expression, “We have a saying in the East, ‘When fate arrives, the partner will come naturally’. Just wait for it.”

Ryan scratched his head, fate?

What’s that?

After all, he was a noble, and he used to be an emperor at that. And yet he had to rely on fate?

Ryan couldn’t help but muse in his heart, “I think something’s not right. When I was in Hill Psychiatric Hospital, and we were organized to watch TV, I saw those ancient emperors with many wives who liked to have affairs. Since I’ve been an emperor, I must have had that too.”

“Even though I’m now merely a baron, my harem can’t just disappear without a reason.”

“Could it be because I became a baron that they all left?”

“No, I must find a way to get my women back.”

Ryan was mentally ill, and his way of thinking was extremely erratic.

Du Wei couldn’t guess what he was thinking and seeing Ryan deep in thought, chose not to say anything more.

On the side, Tiquel and James looked at each other, both with complex expressions.

With Dusk Bell Church gone, they were actually the ones most affected.

One was a loyal member of Dusk Bell.

The other was an undercover infiltrator in Dusk Bell.

Their original jobs had completely gone off the rails.

James was alright. His undercover career was now definitively over, and after returning to church, he expected that at the very least, he would be promoted to bishop.

This experience was something nobody could ignore.

But Tiquel was in a difficult position.

He was still thinking about working to earn money and then finding Ryan to trade for an identical kidney. Now that the church’s people had taken over here, he had nowhere to run.

You have to know that Tiquel was from Dusk Bell Church, and the relationship between Dusk Bell and the Church was extremely delicate.

Tiquel hesitated for quite a while. Seeing that His Excellency Cain was always busy moving sarcophagi and had completely ignored him, he knew precisely why.

The reason was simple, the church’s main pillar now was Du Wei.

So, Tiquel, clutching the wound on his lower back, approached Du Wei and was about to speak.

Du Wei’s brow furrowed and he immediately said, “Tiquel, just call me Du Wei.”

Alex was present; he didn’t want to hear anything about His Excellency the Duke.

Tiquel was confused but responded, “Alright, Lord Duwei, I want to join the church. Can you help me with that?”

Du Wei spoke calmly, “Join the church? Dusk Bell was originally a hunter organization of the church; no one will stop you if you want to return to the church.”

Tiquel offered a bitter smile, “I used to be from the Neutral Faction, and joining the Church wouldn’t be hard, but there would definitely be some trouble, and if you’re willing, I’d like to follow you.”

“I remember, you’re supposed to be the head of the Tribunal of the Church, aren’t you?”

Indeed, Du Wei’s title and responsibilities had always been in place.

It’s just that he never really cared about it, and he always acted alone.

The entire Tribunal basically consisted of only a sparse few people, which he never managed.

After thinking it over, Du Wei nodded in agreement, “Alright, I will communicate with the Church internally. When the time comes, you can work at the Tribunal, responsible for handling some Evil Spirit incidents.”

Tiquel was, after all, a hunter.

And he held a high position within the Dusk Bell Church, handling affairs of all sizes; having him under his command could be potentially useful.

As for whether Tiquel would betray him…

One could consider what befell Pennywise as a reference.

At that moment, the Church sent a large box truck, and Cain had people load the two stone coffins. They were next to be transported to the Church.

“Lord Duwei, I will personally bring the stone coffins back to the Church, What are your plans now? Will you return with me, or?”

Cain asked, as of late, the Church’s Blood of Jesus had been inexplicably dormant, and he could not afford to be away for too long.

After some thought, Du Wei spoke, “I don’t plan on returning to the Church just yet. I want to take Ryan back to New York for a few days; there are still some unresolved matters there.”

He was referring to Rahmer’s Bell.

He was keen to know whether that thing remained after Rahmer’s banishment, and more so whether Minette was still within the bell.

Cain didn’t ask further, “Alright, if that’s the case, then I’ll take James and Tiquel back with me. We need to make an information registration back at the Church.”

James walked forward in silence, casting a somewhat reluctant look at Ryan.

As for Ryan, he was carefree and excited, with his thoughts fixed on returning to New York to begin reconstructing the Hill Psychiatric Hospital, where he’d be the Deputy Director.

But Tiquel looked helplessly towards Du Wei.

With a faint smile, Du Wei called out to Cain, “By the way, Tiquel isn’t bad. Once he’s at the Church, include him in the Tribunal. I need such talents.”

“Certainly, Lord Duwei.”

Cain looked at Tiquel with an odd expression, but at his age, he had no desire to meddle in these affairs.

Since His Excellency the Duke had spoken, there was no reason to refuse.

Shortly thereafter, the group dispersed.

…

A few hours later.

A plane took off from Swiss Airport, heading towards New York.

On the plane, Du Wei and Ryan sat together.

Alex had set out on this trip on a whim; with a myriad of matters awaiting her at the Wittebach family, she shared a brief moment of warmth with Du Wei before boarding another plane to part ways.

…

On the other side.

New York Airport, the time difference between the two cities was substantial.

In Switzerland, it was morning, while in New York the sun was setting.

Inside the terminal at New York Airport, Tom and Father Tony sat on chairs, smoking together.

Smoking in public was quite unethical.

But these two hardly had any sense of ethics to speak of.

“My good brother mentioned he’s bringing a good friend from Switzerland. His friend is our friend, and I’ve already thought of the perfect welcoming ceremony for tonight.”

“Du Wei mentioned that his friend was one of the missing staff from Hill Psychiatric Hospital. Since we’re all New Yorkers, we need to let this friend feel the warmth of New York!”
