Mystery: Shadow of Order Chapter 24

Originally, Rawls, like most believers, would shed tears, but after the accident just now, he was only surprised, where there were tears! The only way to do this is to pick up the ability to cry in childhood.

The mass has come to an end, and the believers sitting in front have stood up, walked to the altar, and started to donate.

Rawls took out his wallet from his pocket, took out 100 pounds of cash, got up, walked into the aisle, and came to the altar.

He tapped four times clockwise on his chest, drew a crimson moon, and put the money into the donation box in front of the altar with the sympathetic expression of Bishop Elektra of St. Samuel Church.

Once again, he clicked four times clockwise on his chest to draw a crimson moon, and after nodding with Bishop Electra, he gave up the position to Belin and Delia who were behind.

Normally, unless you come to ask for donations or posthumous inheritance donations, the large sums of money that can be received in the dedication box in the church are only a few dozen pounds.

Even devout believers who love to donate will not throw money into the donation box every time they come here. They often do it once or twice a week or two depending on the specific situation of the family.

This is a normal situation. Every year on the holy day of the "Goddess of the Night", that is, the "Winter Ceremony Day", the amount of a single donation will expand a lot, and the wealthy civilians will choose two to three soles, and the middle class will be about 5 pounds. , and people from the upper class donate directly to the bishops of the diocese and charitable organizations of the church, ranging from a few hundred pounds to several thousand pounds.

Klein donated 300 pounds at the moon mass, not only because he was excited to see the captain and old Neil again, but also to show his status as a rich man, to get in touch with Bishop Electra, and to steal. Notes from the Antigonus family behind the Gate of Chanis in St. Samuel's Church.

Senior believers like Adrian's family do not need to rely on large donations to gain the trust of the church. They only need to regularly attend mass and services to gain the trust and protection of the church.

After Beilein and Delia's donations were over, the three walked out of the big prayer hall together.

Rawls saw that Belin and Delia should have donated 1 pound through his far superior observation ability.

Bellin donated 1 pound, which Rawls thought was reasonable. The Bellings are in the liquor business, and even though it's been a little difficult recently because of the repeal of the Corn Act, it's not less than £1. After this level is over, it is completely possible to purchase red wine only from Intis, and maybe it will be even better.

The beer of the Loen Kingdom is very famous, the most famous is the Southwell beer; the red wine of the Republic of Intis is the most famous, and its most famous and expensive wine is named after the giant king "Olmir". He loves it very much. Drink **** wine.

And Rawls guessed that Bellin came to work in the "Metropolitan Helping Domestic Servants Association". On the one hand, she was influenced by the Evernight Church to find a job, and on the other hand, it was possible to help her father expand his contacts.

After all, those who can come to the "Metropolis Helping Family Servants Association" to find servants and housekeepers are at least middle-class and above families, which is one of the main forces for consuming red wine. As for the aristocracy, they are very picky about red wine and even have their own winery. They despise the Beilein family's red wine, and the Beilein family is difficult to get along with.

Compared to Beilein, Rawls knew very little about Delia. But judging from her dress, although she is exquisite, her clothes and jewelry are obviously outdated. Either the family is in trouble, or it is just a small amount of money, and I like to read women's magazines or have taken etiquette classes.

This kind of female-oriented magazines often give women some simplified aristocratic etiquette and communication rituals, and then run some courses or salons to give these women some simple demonstrations.

And donating 1 pound is definitely a bit too much for Delia. It should be a little girl's face. It is not appropriate to come with Beilein, not to donate or to donate too little. However, how many other boys can put on such a face?

"call"

After walking out of the church, Beilein let out a light breath and said:

"Every time I participate in the Moon Mass, I feel a lot more relaxed, and the fatigue of the day is cleared up."

"Yeah, it's a pity that only the Moon Mass and the Winter Celebration can feel this way."

Delia softly agreed.

"Winter Day" refers to the day with the longest night every year, and is considered to be the birthday of the "Goddess of the Night".

Rawls knew the reason, but he couldn't say it, so he had to explain it casually:

"It should be the gathering of believers and the blessing of the goddess to have this effect."

Bellin sighed and said:

"If only it happened once a week."

The Chanis Gate under the church also needs to use part of the spirituality generated by the faithful prayers to maintain the sealing circle. If it comes once a week, the sealed objects behind Chanis Gate will definitely riot.

"God's gift cannot be forced."

After he finished speaking, Rawls tapped four times clockwise on his chest to draw a crimson moon.

Seeing Rawls's movements, Beilein and Delia followed suit and drew a crimson moon on their chests.

Rawls took out the pocket watch from his pocket and opened it with a slap. It was eight o'clock.

"It's getting late, I don't know if I have the honor to send the two ladies home."

"No, let's go back by public carriage."

The three were polite again, and finally the two ladies took the stagecoach back.

After waiting for a while, a public carriage came, and Rawls put the two women on the carriage and took off his hat to say goodbye.

The hooves of "da da" sounded, and Fitch drove the carriage to Rolls' side. He had been guarding near the church, and when he saw Rawls, Beilein, and Delia coming out, he didn't come directly, but drove the carriage to follow slowly.

Feige jumped out of the carriage and said hello:

"Good evening, sir."

Feige didn't make useless jokes like his peers, he was less appreciated by the guests and more disgusted, and he wasn't sure whether Rawls was in a state of anger.

"good evening."

Rawls didn't think that Fitch had so many ideas. He directly boarded the carriage. He was not an "audience". It was just a coincidence that he attended Mass with Beilein and the others.

Feige was very happy. His guest's tone was happy. At least he didn't have to worry about his income for the past two days.

"Back to No. 45 Gaton Street, West District."

"OK."

Fitch responded with a sound, whipped his whip, and the carriage drove to the West End.

Rawls took off his silk top hat and put it on the bag containing his windbreaker and soft felt hat. He leaned the silver-studded black cane aside and leaned against the back wall of the carriage.

He raised his right hand and looked at the palm, where there used to be the mark of the black inverted pyramid, but now it is empty.

Rawls unfolded his spirituality and tried to sense the mark on his palm.
