Exorcist's Self-Cultivation-Chapter 667 - 664 Its all a misunderstanding

Chapter 667: 664, It’s all a misunderstanding Chapter 667: 664, It’s all a misunderstanding It was still the hotel.

Du Wei leaned against the window, smoking a cigarette as he gazed at the Dusk Bell Church opposite.

Next to him, Pennywise stood with a red balloon, the intermittently visible grimace on its face would terrify anyone who saw it to the point where their souls would nearly escape them.

However, those without the Spirit Vision were not able to see it.

At the moment, Pennywise’s gaze was vacant.

The previous voluntary gambling game was sheer torture.

Win and get shot.

...

Lose and still get shot.

The problem was that winning or losing was futile; Du Wei simply didn’t want the game to end so quickly and continued to torment Pennywise.

Um…

Definitely not because Pennywise had often sought death in the past, causing Du Wei to harbor a grudge at heart.

However.

After the relentless torment,

Du Wei finally let Pennywise go.

The latter, with utmost sincerity, conceded defeat wholeheartedly.

It lost everything to Du Wei.

And looking into its eyes again,

It seemed unlikely it would become any smarter in the future.

This made Du Wei very satisfied.

But what exactly was going on with the Dusk Bell Church?

“Really strange,”

Du Wei murmured, his gaze towards the Dusk Bell Church becoming stranger and stranger.

“Just now, I felt something was off, like there were Evil Spirits everywhere inside, or some other Strangeness lurking, but now it seems as if everything has returned to calm.”

“I couldn’t possibly be hallucinating, so does that mean something really did happen at the Dusk Bell?”

“But they’re the ones who kill Evil Spirits, and with Matthew that two-hundred-year-old monster around, even if a few Strangenesses or Demon Spirits showed up, I wouldn’t doubt that he could kill those things.”

Du Wei was now very worried.

Ryan was still detained in the Dusk Bell Church, and now something had happened at Dusk Bell, and without any special means, if anything went wrong, he would surely die a death that couldn’t be more certain.

“But just charging in would also get me into trouble. I need a well-thought-out, assured plan, not to rush in blind.”

At that,

Du Wei gave it some thought and then took out his phone to dial the church’s number.

Hunter Kane answered the call.

“Your Excellency the Duke, do you have any instructions?”

Du Wei said solemnly, “I have now arrived in Switzerland, but I’ve discovered that something is wrong with the Dusk Bell Church, it seems like some kind of Strangeness has occurred inside, so I need some information.”

Kane asked doubtfully, “Isn’t the information I sent you enough?”

Du Wei replied coldly, “Not at all. The Tribunal has planted many undercover agents in the Dusk Bell; it’s time to activate them. I need to understand what exactly happened inside.”

Kane answered, “I understand, Your Excellency, but it’s definitely not possible for all our undercover agents to be exposed, at least not those in the shadows. Let’s do this: I’ll give you James’s phone number, and you can contact him.”

Du Wei raised an eyebrow, “James… Good.”

Initially, Alvin Dowqui wanted to recruit James into the Tribunal, with him serving as the vice-director of the Tribunal, but Du Wei’s emergence replaced James’s position.

Consequently, James was sent undercover to the Dusk Bell.

But from what Kane said…

It seems like this undercover agent was sent more like a decoy to draw fire.

Shortly after,

Kane sent James’s contact information to Du Wei.

Then,

Du Wei directly called James’s number.

Accompanying a series of busy tones,

James’s voice came from the other end of the line, “May I ask who this is?”

Du Wei spoke calmly, “It’s me, long time no see, Mr. James.”

The next second,

James responded in astonishment, “Mr. Du Wei? You… How could you… No, are you contacting me at this time because the church’s undercover operation is ending?”

Du Wei answered, “It should be ending soon. You should know my current position in the church. I’m contacting you because I’ve arrived in Switzerland, and I need to take Ryan with me. Yet, an anomaly has occurred at Dusk Bell, and I need to understand the situation inside.”

James on the other end of the phone seemed quite shocked.

He said in confusion, “Strangeness? What strangeness, everything at Dusk Bell is normal.”

Du Wei frowned and said, “You didn’t feel the previous strangeness? As a hunter, your Spirit Vision should have allowed you to notice those weird phenomena.”

James was even more puzzled, “There were some haunted happenings a few days ago, but they didn’t escalate into strangeness. Could you have made a mistake?”

Du Wei fell silent.

He couldn’t have made a mistake.

And the fact that James was in the midst of it all and unaware just highlighted the severity of the problem.

So.

He quickly asked, “Where is Ryan being held? Can you get him out?”

James said in surprise, “Being held? No, he’s been fine at Dusk Bell, just eating, sleeping, and when he’s got nothing else to do, he either relieves himself wherever he pleases or curses at people. He’s living better than I am.”

Hearing this.

Du Wei was completely dumbfounded.

What was happening?

Ryan was doing fine?

Wasn’t he suffering at Dusk Bell?

“How could that be? Wasn’t Dusk Bell trying to use his abilities and then imprisoning him, torturing him frequently?”

“No, no, no, Mr. Du Wei, that sort of thing never happened. Hannibal seemed to want to do that before, but he was stopped. Afterwards, I took over looking after Ryan. He’s been living comfortably, but it’s me that he’s been tormenting every day.”

“He even gave me electrotherapy.”

“And he passed his cold onto me.”

“I’m actually the most miserable one.”

At this, Du Wei really didn’t know what to say.

He felt like he might have misunderstood something about Dusk Bell.

However, now wasn’t the time to think too much about it.

The most pressing matter was to quickly get Ryan away.

Du Wei made a decisive decision.

He immediately ordered James, “If that’s the case, then bring Ryan out right now; I’m taking him away. Remember, don’t alarm anyone else.”

James said solemnly, “Okay, I’ll go find Ryan now and get him out to meet you.”

With that, he hung up the phone.

And Du Wei was left doubting himself.

The Ryan he imagined: imprisoned, bullied, beaten up, frail, pitiable, and helpless.

The actual Ryan: arrogant and domineering, bullying the weak, completely unrestrained, relieving himself whenever and wherever he wants.

“If I had known it was like this, why did I bother doing so much?”

“I could’ve just come directly to Dusk Bell to pick him up…”

Did I need a plan?

Completely unnecessary…

And what about a backup plan?

The guy has been living just fine…

Such a big misunderstanding…

Du Wei was absolutely speechless.

He packed up his things and, with his bag on his back, left the hotel and walked toward the street near the Dusk Bell Church, waiting for James to come out with Ryan so he could immediately leave with the man.

As for James…

If Dusk Bell really had nothing going on as he said, then just let him continue to stay.

Or he could leave with Du Wei if he wanted.

…

Half an hour later.

The street opposite of Dusk Bell Church.

Standing in the rain under his umbrella, Du Wei watched the closed doors of the church across the street with a cold gaze.

At that moment, he had his phone in one hand, listening to James’s voice on the other end.

“Mr. Du Wei, Ryan has disappeared, I didn’t find him. I’ve come out now, right in front of the church’s entrance. Where are you? I think something might really be wrong with Dusk Bell, it’s like everyone has vanished.”

Du Wei glanced across at the church entrance; there was not a soul in sight…
