Chapter 271 Ordinary and Common People 2
As she spoke, Jessica raised the small flower basket in her hand and said with expectation in her tone:
"Mr. Conan, you can take as much as you want!"
Eros reached out and rubbed Jessica's head, then took out a box of matches from the small flower basket:
"One box is enough. You won't need so much. I'm very happy that you have such a heart."

Jessica pursed her lips, a little aggrieved on her face.
Seeing this, Eros casually changed the subject and said, "Don't you have to go to the church to work today?"
Speaking of work, Jessica's attention was indeed diverted.
"I've finished my morning work! So I came out to sell some matches. It's a pity that Mrs. Jennifer's flower shop is not open today, so I didn't pick up the flowers. Otherwise, I could have sent flowers to Mr. Conan."
After talking about it, Jessica sounded a little frustrated.
Eros was a little surprised. It was only around 7:30 in the morning. He had finished his morning work so quickly?
Yolton Cathedral is not one of those partitioned chapels, it is very large.
Seemingly noticing the surprise on Eros's face, Jessica explained:
"Our working time in the morning is at three o'clock in the morning, and we have to start cleaning the church at three o'clock, because the church will have believers coming to worship at 6:30."
"Then we clean once at noon and once in the evening. We only need to clean three times a day in total. The work is still very easy."
Three o'clock in the morning, relaxed...
The corners of Eros' mouth twitched and he coughed dryly:
"You are still young. Remember to sleep more when you can rest. This is good for your health!"
Jessica shook her head, still with a smile on her face and said:
"It doesn't matter, I'm in good health."
Eros had no choice but to reach out and rub Jessica's head, quietly injecting a ray of life force that did not carry any pollution into her.
After doing this, Eros smiled at Jessica and said:
"Okay! It's time for me to work too!"
Jessica nodded heavily, then smiled and waved her hand to Eros:
"Goodbye Mr. Conan!"
"Goodbye!" Eros also smiled and waved his hand, then walked along the street.
Watching Eros leave, Jessica belatedly touched her body.
My body, which was obviously a little sore just now, is not sore now.
…
After patrolling the streets, Eros came to the Special Operations Department office. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Peter and David with serious expressions.
Throwing a box of matches in his hand on the table, Eros asked curiously:
"What happened?"
Hearing Eros's question, Peter scratched his head and said in a somewhat irritable tone:
"Yesterday and early this morning, we found no clues about a member of the Scarlet Sect."
"And I just heard from the captain that the three priests at the church who tried divination yesterday are now half crazy."
"Obviously we have taken all layers of protection, but in the end we were still contaminated from the air."
"Those damn guys are fully prepared this time. Are they planning to prepare a blood sacrifice for this kind of battle?"
Eros frowned: "Blood sacrifice?"
David on the side nodded and explained: "The ritual used by the Scarlet Sect to please the Blood-Red God."
"It is said that once this ritual is successful, the Blood-Red God will bestow grace on all those participating in the ritual and help them improve their order."
"The highest level can even help transcendence to enter the realm of mythology."
"The Scarlet Sect tried to hold it once a few years ago. Although it successfully prevented the ceremony, it still caused huge harm to Haidaram."
"It's only been a few years, and they seem to be planning to hold it again!"
