Al was a little nervous at this time. Her status in the Cross Church was not actually high. She was just a nun. She went to the Republic to work as a field doctor in her early years. She had not been in contact with the Vatican Church for a long time. But she would meet the bishop as soon as she came back.

In the Cross Church, the bishop was appointed by the Pope and was second only to the Pope and the Cardinal. Each of them had their own diocese in charge and was responsible for tutoring the church in the area. They were core figures and were equivalent to generals and officials in the Glory of the Republic, which was not something that everyone could see.

If Al came back alone, it would be a dream to get a meeting with the bishop, and there was obviously a reason for Luo You.

Although Luo You was traveling to do private affairs this time, I believe someone had already greeted him and opened a green channel for him.

The Cross Church's attitude towards the Glory of the Republic has always been ambiguous. They strongly helped the East in the first two years. The Glory of the Republic has not been destroyed in the first year, which can be said to have great contributions to the church.

However, three years after the collapse, the Federal Heavy Industry Corps invaded the Glory of the Republic. The Cross Church did not dare to offend the Federation and left again under pressure, leaving only a few volunteers similar to Al.

Therefore, if the Republic's Glory and the Federal Heavy Industry Legion are obvious enemies, but they temporarily live in peace because of checks and balances, then the Cross Church is a kind of a close and distant attitude, with a fence-like feeling, traveling through international forces like a smooth loach, looking for the best interests.

The Northern Expedition is the best example. As soon as the Judicial Council on Noah's Ark joined the battle, the troops of the Cross Church arrived later. In name, it was for justice and suppressed Leng Yuan's atrocities, but who can tell the true intentions?

Of course, if you have to say it thoroughly, the relationship between the Cross Church and the Republic is still very friendly and they all give each other enough respect. There are also reasons why Luo You was able to receive the bishop this time, and Al is purely benefiting from it.

Luo You and Al walked through the corridor and came to the back hall. An old man dressed in gorgeous and dignified clothes seemed to have been waiting here for a long time. He stood up tremblingly and said in an old voice: "Peace in the Lord, nun, and this guest from a foreign land."

Al's knees bent slightly and gave a graceful bow. Luo You just nodded and greeted.

The bishop was in poor health and could not stand for a long time. He slowly sat back on his original position and said, "Come from afar, what will do you have to come to this strange place?"

Luo You said in a low voice: "To find someone."

"Can you provide more precise clues and facilitate God's guidance?"

Luo You opened his mouth several times, but couldn't say anything. How should he express it? His memory of Luo Wei stayed on the day he parted seven years ago. People will eventually grow up, let alone Luo Wei's age.

Luo Wei was a petite loli back then, and now she may have grown into a beautiful beauty. She doesn't even know whether she has long or short hair.

Luo You even suspected that if Luo Wei stood in front of him now, the girl who had grown up for seven years would definitely be no longer the same as before, and he might not be able to recognize her. How could the bishop understand all this?

After a moment of silence, Luo You said in a low voice: "I only know her name, Luo Wei."

The bishop drew a cross on his chest, then said tremblingly: "I am very sorry, a visitor from afar, I have devoted my life to the Vatican, but I have never heard of this person's name."

Luo You continued: "If nothing unexpected happens, she may have been brought here by the church in the first year of the Bang Denial."

"The first year of the Bang Death..." The bishop seemed to remember some bad memories, and his expression became very vicissitudes. "A unforgettable past, I will submit an application for investigation to you, but it takes time. May the glory of the Lord be with her."

"If I could find her, I would definitely repay my kindness." Luo You did not stay at the bishop for more time. He waited for Al to finish his daily prayer and left after saying goodbye.

Al's home is not in the Vatican, it is where senior clergy live. Only the blood relatives of these people can become residents, and they are not ordinary poor families who can settle at will.

The transportation mode of the Cross Church is relatively primitive. They do not like the pollution of heavy industry, so they use carriages for medium and short-term use. Of course, the horses here are not ordinary things like the old era.

In order to support high-intensity battles, the horses of the Knights of the Cross Church are all high-level creatures exchanged by cubes. Their appearance is not much different from those of the horse, but they are taller. The ultimate bloodline makes their strength and endurance unimaginable. The fierce body will not fall easily in the face of gunfire or even small-caliber main guns.

The most common horses used in civilians are breeding of these horses. The purity of bloodline has decreased after hybridization, but it is by no means comparable to horses in the old era. It is very easy to travel hundreds of miles a day and a night.

The carriage is walking in the Vatican neighborhoods, and today is December 23, the day before Christmas Eve, and it is the most festive and sacred day for these believers.

Around them are bustling crowds, Christmas trees full of colorful lights, and the atmosphere of joy renders the entire city. They hug each other, send their most sincere greetings, and hand over the fruits of peace that represent blessings, immersed in this peace.

On the spacious streets, there are tall elks pulling sleds past the avenue from time to time, causing pedestrians to exclaim and cheer. The entire Vatican is surrounded by neon lights, like a fairy tale kingdom that only exists in the dream of innocent children!

Seeing all this, Luo You couldn't help but recall the scene of the amusement park in the city when he was a child. At that time, the family reunion and the relatives were around him, and he was playing without hesitation. It was his happiest time and a time that never returned.

Suddenly, Luo You felt something leaning gently on his shoulder. He turned his head and saw that Al, who had been tired for a day, had fallen asleep and unconsciously leaned his little head over.

There were no electrical appliances in the carriage, only blocking the doors and windows of the outside world, but they could not stop the invasion of the cold. Although Al was dressed very thickly, he still shivered unconsciously in his sleep.

Luo You was silent for a while, took out a spare cloak from the space bag and put it on Al.

Luo You didn't sleep well because of that nightmare last night, and today he had been on the plane for another day and was a little tired. He took his eyes back from the happy world outside, slowly closed his eyes, and gradually fell asleep in the slight bumps.

That night, Luo You dreamed that he had walked out of the darkness, crossed the passing of time, got rid of the long-standing alone, and the blood that had gradually cooled down due to killing regained its warmth. He hugged Luo Wei and returned to his familiar homeland and to the place called "home".

However, even in the dream, Luo You knew very well that this was just a dream about waking up, and he had long lost his way back.
