79. Confession
Marn walked into the side door of the church. The marble animal statues were "playing" in the garden. The old man stood on the cobblestone path and smiled warmly at him.
"Go this way." The bishop pointed to a relatively remote building, "Because the matter we are going to talk about involves some very important secrets, there will be some inquisitors guarding it."
Ma En nodded:
"Of course I can understand, although I really don't know why you want to come to me."
He was not worried about any problems at all. On the one hand, the Coordination Bureau also knew about this matter, and the church did not dare to mess around. On the other hand...
I have absolutely nothing to feel guilty about.
Bishop Ding said with a kind expression:
"Just some little things."
He led Ma En into the building, came to two parallel wooden doors, nodded slightly to the two judges at the door, and then pushed open one of the doors to let the sunlight shine into the dark room.
"This is a confessional room with a special structure. You can just go in."
The door frame of the confessional has complicated patterns carved on it. The space inside is about two by two square meters, with a red high-backed wooden chair fixed in the middle. Although the space is actually quite spacious, looking at Ma En inside is still a bit strange.
An inexplicable feeling of constriction.
He walked right in.
Bishop Ding glanced at the inquisitor on the left. After receiving the signal, the inquisitor immediately reached out and pushed the door shut.
The texture of the door frame flows with golden light.
He opened the second door, and inside was a spacious room decorated with various religious instruments and sacred symbols, which even included the compartment where Ma En should have been.
The angel was standing inside, looking at the partition window directly in front of the door.
Bishop Ding also walked in.
Ma En looked at the golden stream of light overflowing the black partition window, and what came together were questions that were so distorted that they were unreal:
"Marn, are you ready?"
"Start asking."
"There are signs of hell creatures being summoned at the Coordination Bureau. What do you know?"
"I know, but Qin Lan issued a confidentiality order."
"Okay, so have you heard about the Wingbreaker attack on the Saints four years ago?"
"Of course, this is not a trivial matter, and the Coordination Bureau is handling matters related to the region, so I checked the information in this regard."
"So, what do you think about that?"
"This kind of thing is still too far away from me and has no impact on me, so if you really want to ask, you can only consider it a bad thing."
"Great, so were you involved in that?"
This question made Ma En stunned:
"Of course not, what are you talking about?"
"Who are the saints?"
"I don't know, Bishop Ding, are you doubting me?"
"Child, I'm sorry for not telling you in advance that you are on their suspect list, but after I finish asking, you will be fine, and they will no longer have any doubts about you. So the next question...
"Do you have any secrets that you can't tell?"
"Yes, but it has nothing to do with the church or that matter."
"Have you ever used amnestics on yourself?"
Ma En had already thought that he would ask this question. After all, now he was beginning to doubt whether he was really hiding something:
"No."
"Is there any way to restore the memory you erased?"
"No."
"Do you know of any way to reverse the memory wipe?"
"have no idea."
"What are you doing on September 17, 2031?"
Ma En replied calmly
"I don't remember it. It was not a memorable day for me, just like most days in my life."
The person on the other side paused.
"wait a moment."
Bishop Ding looked at the angel:
"Based on what he told the truth, if Ma En was really related to the Wingbreaker incident, he not only deleted these memories, but he also didn't leave any way out for himself.
"If I were him, I would find an excuse to refuse this meeting.
"If there is anything wrong with him, his flaws will be exposed sooner or later in this state. And if he is really related to this matter and has completely destroyed all other evidence, then we will never know the truth.
"Compared to these two, I am more willing to believe that he is telling the truth."
Angel actually agreed with Bishop Ding’s point of view.
But that's not the "truth" his colleagues want to hear.
The point is not what happened to Ma En at all, but that they wanted to find a reason to expel Ma En from Chen Yun. It would be better if he could be tried in secret.
If he hadn't rejected Chen Yun's offer to take care of him, those irritable angels might have been unable to restrain themselves.
Moreover, Ma En is not an ordinary person. It is not a simple matter to expel him arbitrarily or conduct a secret trial without any reason. The Coordination Bureau to which he belongs is also an organization that a few angels in the mortal world must be wary of.
And the other bosses are also the sisters of Shenxiaoxingzhe.
"Let him out."
"You can go, Ma En. Thank you for agreeing to this interview. Don't take this to heart. We have already figured out the situation."
"OK."
He opened the door.
The sharp golden spear cut through the air and hit his head unstoppably. Seeing this scene, Ma En instinctively wanted to step back, but he still remembered...
Angels will attack anyone who can see them.
He walked down the steps calmly, and the light gun stopped steadily between his eyebrows.
Ma En used his mind to control his entire body to turn around, looked at the two judges and asked:
"Isn't Bishop Ding out yet?"
Bishop Ding came out and nodded slightly to him:
"You can go now. If you need my help in any way, you can always come to the church to find me. We owe you this time."
Ma En smiled and said:
"It's okay, thank you."
There was something shaking in his mind, and the angel's attack stimulated his mental power to instinctively want to do something, but he had been restraining this idea just now.
Only now did he agree to his request for power.
[Cognitive Impairment Resistance]
Then, he remembered.
It turns out that he did not master any method of reversing erasure, but his mental power has adapted to special resistance, and as long as he grasps the intensity of memory erasure in advance...
That's it.
Bishop Ding looked at the angel.
The angel sighed:
"Ignore him, I will bring this news back, you just need to be responsible for your own work."
But his colleagues may not give up, especially the companions who are jointly responsible for the guardianship task with him. There are many angels who always devoutly want to dedicate their strength to their master.
But in his own opinion, some of the angels' practices were actually against doctrine, but...
