Chapter Ninety-nine Only two votes
Henry did feel that there was something wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong in the strict implementation. He looked at Bishop Caesar who looked at him with his head down and played with his fingers. He finally sat down slowly with his face tense.
He did not point out where the election was unfair, and it was equivalent to acknowledging its fairness.
Seeing the chaos that almost broke out, Thomas glanced at Lin Zixian coldly again, put down the sword in his hand, turned around and looked at Daniel, the president of the Pope's ceremony, nodded to greet him.
Daniel immediately said to the shocked examiner: "Continue counting."
Thomas carried a sword and led his two men to retract one corner, stood with his hands on the sword, and continued to maintain election order.
A ballot circulated again from examiner A to examiner C, who announced loudly: "Henry."
Lin Zixian breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Fortunately, the third vote did not appear on him again. He finally raised his head openly to pay attention to the counting of votes.
Many people looked at Henry again, but Henry felt a little embarrassed. He felt a little reckless just now. He only had two of 118 votes. Why are he in a hurry?
Henry's name immediately appeared on the big blackboard facing everyone, one vote.
Sometimes people have to sigh at the magic of the Creator. I wonder if God is joking. Perhaps God realized something unexpected happens in this election, and seemed to be interested in reminding everyone. After the examiner C got a vote again, he shouted: "Henry."
Henry's two votes also appeared together in succession, so Henry's name turned into two votes on the big blackboard, which made Henry feel embarrassed and regretted his previous reckless behavior.
But Master Lin was not a good man. He was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned, and suddenly slapped the table with a 'bang', pointing at Henry and angrily said, "This is impossible!"
As soon as someone shot an arrow, the guy immediately returned a shot without hesitation. He only felt that God had eyes and was unhappy in retribution. The opportunity for revenge came so soon. If such a good opportunity was delivered to him, I would be sorry to God.
The audience was speechless. This time, everyone did not make any noise anymore, and the counting of votes was interrupted again. Someone looked at Henry and secretly laughed, right? Bishop Caesar would not care about your identity as the chief bishop. If you find an opportunity, you will immediately make you look good.
The same sentence was sent back without a word, and he also slapped the table as interest. Henry's old face was a little overwhelmed, and he made a furious sound, but he had no temper. Lin Zixian pointed at the nose and dared not react. Today, this old face was considered a big loss.
Agassi, who was present behind, shook his head secretly, thinking to himself, Bishop Henry, who is not good for you to provoke this hooligan leader, but he just wants to provoke this hooligan leader. Isn't it just that you are trying to stimulate yourself?
Thomas, who was standing with a sword, had a completely sank. Of course, he knew that Lin Zixian was taking the opportunity to retaliate, but he didn't see where this was or what he was doing. Now he was conducting a pope election, not boxing on the ring.
To be honest, he didn't think Lin Zixian should appear in such a place. There would be no good things to do with this guy in the place and should be driven out. However, Bishop Henry was not driven out just now, so naturally there was no reason to drive Lin Zixian out.
Thomas once again took his sword and led the two to the front stage, staring at Lin Zixian and said in a deep voice: "Biography of Caesar, if you have any opinions on the fairness of the election, you can raise it, and don't make noise here!"
Lin Zixian waved his hand again to Henry, who was silent and shouted: "If he has any objections to the fairness of the election, I will naturally have opinions, and if he has no objections, I will have no objections."
He was slapped in the face, and the slap in the face naked. He didn't say anything anymore. He refused to let him go, but he still wanted to pull him out and shake him off. Henry's prestige was completely wiped out by Lin Zixian, but he was still mute and couldn't say what he had to suffer.
Lin Zixian is actually not a person who makes trouble, but he thinks that with Bruce making small moves behind him, it is a foregone conclusion that he has the votes ahead of him.
In order to block everyone's mouth from behind, we must now catch a thorn and slap hard in the face, otherwise everyone may overturn the election results if they make a fuss later. Now we have to make things a certain degree.
Thomas looked at Henry and felt angry. If you hadn't caused trouble first, such a solemn and sacred election would have been like this? He asked in a deep voice: "Bike Henry, do you have any doubts about the fairness of the election?"
Henry was so angry that he wanted Caesar to wait and see how I dealt with you after the election was completed.
However, at this time, he had to stand up, and in front of everyone, his face turned red and said, "I have no doubts."
Thomas asked again: "Bike Henry, do you acknowledge the fairness of the election?"
Henry nodded with breath and said, "I admit that this is a fair election." After that, he sat down immediately.
Thomas looked at Lin Zixian again, "Bike Caesar, do you have any doubts about the fairness of the election?"
Lin Zixian shook his head and said, "I have no doubts."
Thomas asked the same question: "Bike Caesar, do you acknowledge the fairness of the election?"
Lin Zixian smiled and said, "I admit that this is a fair election." He completely imitated Henry's words, sat down calmly, looked comfortable, and finally exclaimed.
Thomas looked around and said, "Everyone! If you have any doubts about the fairness of the election, please raise it now."
No one was there to say anything. After waiting for a while, Thomas said: "Since everyone has no doubt about the fairness of the election, I now announce that if there are any further persons who disrupt the order of the election, I will exercise the ultimate right to judge, deprive the perpetrators of the right to be elected and elected, and expel them from the Sistine!"
After a warning, he turned around and nodded to Daniel, leading the people back to their original position.
Daniel glanced at Henry who was almost vomiting blood, shook his head secretly, thinking that Henry was so embarrassed today, so he turned around and said to the auditor: "Continue counting votes."
Auditor C thought today's election was really full of twists and turns. After receiving the vote, he sang the vote again: "Christin."
"Joyce."
“Connor Reeves.”
"Henry."
"Henry."
"Cecil."...
The subsequent vote count went smoothly and there was no accident. The six bishops in the collegial panel are worthy of being the favorites to win the championship. The six votes were more than others, especially Henry's votes, and they took the lead.
Lin Zixian, who was about to appear in a dark horse, was really dark, his face gradually became dark, and the votes were almost finished, but he never heard his name again.
When all 118 votes were sung, a total of 15 people won the votes, including Lin Zixian.
Henry, who was in the lead, received the highest votes in the whole game, thirty-four votes; Benedict won ten votes; Cecil won eight votes; Felix won eight votes, the same as the former; Joyce won twelve votes; Daniel won ten votes.
The six archbishops in the collegial panel won a total of 82 votes, and the remaining thirty-six votes were almost equally divided by the other nine vote winners, which shows the campaign strength of the six archbishops.
At the beginning, Caesar, who had won two votes in a row and was ranked first on the blackboard, had only two votes, and only two votes at the beginning. There was nothing he had done after that. The lowest votes were received, and the situation was very strange. The Grand Official Lin, who was about to appear in a dark horse, was actually at the bottom...
Lin Zixian was suddenly filled with anger, his face was so gloomy that he could wrinkle it out. Obviously, one of the two votes was voted by himself, and the other was voted by Agassi for himself. In other words, none of the individuals that Bruce had agreed to vote for him.
There are only two situations now. Either Bruce plays tricks on himself, otherwise so many people will not be able to vote for him in such a unified way. If this is true, Bruce, wait for me to see, and then I will tell Andy about bombing David's manor with missiles.
There is another situation where someone tampered with the vote counting process, but he couldn't see which link was tampered with the vote counting process.
This guy was angry and depressed. He had known that he would not have slapped Henry in the face just now. Now he had slapped himself in the face. He had already admitted the fairness of the election. If he had any objections, he would be kicked out of Sistine... He was so uncomfortable with breathing. The key is that he didn't understand now that it was Bruce who was playing tricks on him or that someone had been tampered with the vote counting process.
Someone looked at Lin Zixian and Agassi. Many people guessed that these two people were getting closer. It was probably because Caesar's two votes were voted by these two. It was really overestimated to want to run for the Pope.
But it's really weird. Just two votes were picked up from the beginning. Is it God joking or something?
Agassi was uncomfortable with the eyes of some people and sighed in his heart. Bishop Caesar said that you have no hope and you don’t believe it yet, so why bother to come out and embarrass this?
Henry, who had been so angry that his face turned red, has calmed down now, looking blank. Judging from his approval rating, his election should be no problem and he is in a very excited mood.
At the counting site, it was the three correctors' turn to play their role and began the second round of review. The three correctors checked the signature tickets of the three reviewers one by one to see if there were any errors. It was equivalent to six people taking turns to check each ticket. If one ticket was wrong, this round of elections would be invalidated, which shows how cautious it is.
After two rounds of review, the amendment officer reported that there was no problem, and the ballots were immediately concentrated. Under the supervision of relevant personnel, all ballots were thrown into the stove for destruction. Someone poured a spoonful of chemical raw materials into the stove.
A thick black smoke immediately rolled out from the chimney on the roof of the Sistine Chapel. The believers waiting in St. Peter's Square heard a sound of regret. The black smoke represented the election without a result. The white smoke indicated that the new pope was born. It was obvious that the first round of voting did not elect His Majesty the Pope whom he was most awaited.
The Pope Ceremony leader announced loudly: "One hundred and eighteen cardinals voted, no one received more than two-thirds of the majority, and the next round of elections will start again." (To be continued. Please search for Piaotian, novels are better, updated and faster!)
