While the two were chatting, Ava took the items from Joyce's hands and walked into the house. In addition to putting things away, she was also preparing to change clothes. After all, she was still wearing men's clothing.

There was no one in the church today, so Joyce decided to show off his skills and cook a sumptuous lunch for the two of them.

Joyce came to the kitchen, picked up the pots and pans, and started to prepare. After a while, a strong aroma floated in the air, making the two of them couldn't help but take a deep breath after smelling it. An appetizing taste.

Looking at Joyce in the kitchen, Ava's eyes were full of surprise. "Wow~, you haven't cooked such delicious dishes the last few times!" Hearing Freya's words, Joyce smiled slightly and continued with the work at hand.

"You guys wait a moment, you can eat soon."

The two nodded at the same time and then sat on the sofa, continuing to talk about women's topics and waiting quietly for Joyce to prepare this delicious meal.

Joyce quickly prepared lunch. Seeing the dishes on the table, Ava's eyes lit up and she exclaimed, "What a beautiful soup, it's so beautiful, and there's fish."

After saying that, he clumsily picked up the vegetables with chopsticks and put them into his mouth, with a look of enjoyment on his face, and then nodded repeatedly: "It's delicious! It's really delicious, and this fish is so delicious!"

Seeing this, Freya skillfully picked up a piece of fish and put it into her mouth, and then showed a satisfied smile, "Yes! It's really delicious. This is the best fish I have ever eaten." After hearing the two In response to the compliment, Joyce also had a bright smile on her face.

The three of them sat at the dining table and ate happily, and they were all very satisfied.

After lunch, Ava sent Freya outside the church, while Joyce cleaned up.

After finishing packing, I was about to go out for a walk and bask in the sun. When I walked into the church, I saw a man holding a blind cane and wearing sunglasses sitting on a bench that was not exposed to the sun, seeming to be thinking about something.

He walked forward slowly and asked politely: "Can I help you?" When I got closer, I found that he was dressed very appropriately and wore a tie, but there were many bruises and wounds on his face.

After hearing Joyce's footsteps, the man also raised his head and listened, but did not answer his question.

So he continued to ask: "Perhaps you want to drink a cup of coffee now? The Chamber of Commerce recently sent a new coffee machine to the church. The latte it brews tastes very good. Do you want to try it?"

"Thank you." The man's voice was very hoarse and low. Joyce nodded and led the man to the tea room.

I carefully brewed two cups of coffee and brought them to him. "Do you want to add sugar?" and picked up the sugar bowl and shook it.

"No, thanks."

"Are you worried? You can tell me with confidence that even if you kill ten people, as a priest, I will not spread your words to others. Come on, try it. The coffee tastes pretty good." Joyce said After finishing, he pushed the coffee to the man's hand.

The man was silent for a moment and suddenly said: "Father, do you think the devil exists?"

Joyce was slightly stunned. He did not expect that the man would suddenly ask him this question. He thought for a moment, raised his head and looked at the man and replied seriously: "I believe they will hide themselves in the darkness and then wait for their prey." Take the bait.”

"Devil?" The man murmured to himself, seeming to be deep in thought. He suddenly raised his head and glanced at Joyce. Yes, just look!Joyce had a strange feeling, as if he had been seen through by the blind man in front of him.

"Father, you don't look like a devout Christian."

"Did you know? In the Bible, in Hebrew, the word Satan actually means enemy, and it applies to any opponent."

"Whether it was an angel, a demon, or a human being, medieval theologians reinterpreted these scriptures to embody Him into a single and terrifying enemy."

“But my teacher, Father Daniel, told me that when he was young, he visited many places and met many people. Among them was a man who provided help and shelter to the refugees and was very respected by those people.

But one day he was captured by a militia rebel group, after talking with the rebel leader for several hours.

The leader of the resistance army chopped him into pieces in front of everyone.

And all he did was just to protect those in need of protection.

My teacher told me that the leader was the devil.Therefore, the devil exists and is among us in the world. "

After hearing these words, the man fell into silence again, digesting what Joyce said. After a long time, he raised his head with a trace of bitterness on his face. "What if you could stop Him so that He can no longer hurt others?"

Joyce raised her eyebrows when she heard his rhetorical question, and the expression on her face became serious. "I'll stop it in my own way."

Hearing Joyce's reply, the man also showed a faint smile.

"Thank you, Father. My name is Matt Murdock. You can call me Matt." After that, he turned and left.

After seeing him leave, Joyce turned to look at the empty coffee cup with a smile on her lips. It turned out to be you, Daredevil.

...

Three days passed by in a flash, and Ava's injuries were fully recovered.

She has not been idle these days. She studies theology when she has nothing to do and enjoys it.

Ava told Joyce that she hoped to live with him temporarily before finding her brother again, and that she would pay the rent. Joyce said that she could live here, but she did not need to pay rent, and she could stay in the church when she was free. Please help.

Ava agreed, saying that she would be able to do it well, and even went to buy several sets of nun uniforms for this purpose.

Late night

The two got ready to leave the church. A flash of green light showed Ava putting on her uniform and running on the roof while discussing things about the abandoned warehouse.

Soon he came to the warehouse and hid in the dark, observing quietly.

Not long after, a faint light seemed to light up in the warehouse. The two exchanged glances and quietly approached the warehouse.

In front of the side door of the warehouse, Ava squatted there and listened for a long time. After confirming that there was no movement inside, he quietly stood up.

She clapped her hands and gave Joyce an OK gesture. Just as the two were about to enter the warehouse, a car drove up in the distance.

Joyce hurriedly pulled Ava and hid him.

The car slowly drove to the warehouse door and stopped.

The car door opened, and a man walked out. He looked about 30 years old, with a well-proportioned figure, wearing black clothes and black trousers, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his face.His eyes glanced around, seeming to be looking for something.
