Chapter 30 Showdown Night
In 1950, this was destined to be a special time for the textile church.
Similarly, for Ian, Zhang Chen, and many others, this is a very important time.
This year, Ian's beloved son Daniel lost his trace. Although he used all his connections to find Daniel, everything was in vain and he could not find anything.
Just as Daniel disappeared, Daniel's girlfriend, Emma, the famous beauty assassin in the textile church, was found to be pregnant, and the child in her belly could only be Daniel's!
This is not particularly good news for Ian.
However, it was enough for him to divert his emotional sustenance away, so that the pain of losing his son was no longer so clear.
Of course, although the pain was gone, his doubts never disappeared.
Why did Daniel disappear? Where did he go, and how safe is he?
Ian was always thinking about this question, but even at the moment of his death, the question still did not get a definite answer.
Ian's upset was naturally unquestionable, but at this time, Zhang Chen added a lot of fire to him.
Without any instructions from the Destiny Loom, Zhang Chen took action to kill his "enemy", the big drug lord who killed Sloan's parents.
Ian taught this behavior a lesson and killed Zhang Chen, a person who violated the rules.
But he didn't do it.
It was not just that he didn't plan to start, or was kind-hearted or soft-hearted. More part of it was because Ian was surprised to find that when he punished Sloan, there was a storm in the church!
How old are three or five hundred textile mill workers, plus more than twenty assassins, gathered into a considerable force, which even made Ian feel that if he made a wrong decision, these angry church members would use their hands to tear themselves to pieces!
This made Ian become alert.
He strengthened the power in his hands and planned to suppress the surging undercurrents.
However, when he did this, he realized how late he woke up.
A question that may subvert the church has begun to be thought of throughout the church.
"Should we abide by our destiny or obey our own eyes?"
This problem only appeared a long time ago, but it has not been considered a real fermentation until now. The key point is naturally Zhang Chen's actions and its consequences.
But who can make it clear that there is no boost from Zhang Chen, Patton and Rand?
It is better to prevent the people than to prevent rivers. What's more, even if the mouths of church members are blocked, it is impossible to stop their thoughts.
So, when he found that his confidant also began to have some doubts about the church, Ian completely gave up.
He focused all his energy on waiting for the birth of the child in Emma's belly.
Zhang Chen, who had arranged all this, may not be clear. Ian's love for Daniel was far beyond his imagination.
Ian is a typical prodigal son. He was born in a slum in his early years. His parents died early and were taken to the textile church. Because of his extraordinary strength and a withdrawn personality, he rarely made friends with others.
He is not particular about women and never shows mercy.
This situation continued until he was in his sixties. He had become a leader and was still strong. He unexpectedly obtained Daniel during a relationship with a prostitute.
Ian didn't plan to let Daniel be born at first, but when he was planning to give money to the prostitute and let her have an abortion, Ian suddenly thought of his deceased parents and his loneliness over the years.
Then, a heart settled down, as if it had fallen into the bottomless abyss.
Ian, who seemed to have lost his light in front of him, inexplicably decided to let Daniel be born, and after that, he regarded Daniel as his flesh and almost put all his thoughts on this child.
Nothing else, Daniel is no longer just Ian's son, but to a greater extent, he has become a life-saving straw for him!
And now, the life-saving straw is gone.
As he was about to fall into the abyss of nothingness again, Emma's pregnancy gave him a hope.
Daniel's child is his hope, his sun, and his future!
Zhang Chen may never know this complex emotion.
Of course, even if he knew, he would just laugh out loud and give Emma a thumbs up, "I didn't expect that the little guy I made had such a skill!"
The child was born in the summer of 1951.
This is a pretty boy, Ian makes the decision and name it Brian.
Naturally, Emma would not have any objection. In fact, since she became pregnant, her words have decreased significantly, and she has even barely spoken.
Naturally, everyone thought it was her prenatal depression.
But the real situation is probably only known by Zhang Chen and Emma themselves.
After Brian was born, Ian went to take care of the child almost every day, and his diligence was to a certain extent beyond the nanny next to Emma who spent a lot of money to hire.
Then, one day came.
Another night fell, but Ian did not rest early as usual. He held a child who was less than a month old but his eyes widened and he acted very lively.
The child's blue pupils, which looked like the ocean, made him feel extremely friendly, but the sparse black hair made Ian feel quite confused.
Why, it's black?
This doubt was suppressed by him.
Today is not a good time to be confused. Ian, who is ready to take this child to the place, will never let any unnecessary emotions ruin his high emotions.
From the European-style castle, Ian opened a door tied up by heavy chains, turned on the lights, and walked into the underground step by step.
The clanging sounds kept ringing, and the familiar smell of cotton thread filled Ian's nose.
He slowly placed the child in the cradle that had been prepared, and then walked towards the loom that had no energy but was working all the time, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Fate guides me." Ian said with a smile.
"But he did not protect you."
Suddenly, familiar words resounded in my ears, and Ian's face changed drastically, and he quickly turned his head.
"Let go!" Ian shouted.
Zhang Chen seemed to have not heard his words, and held the child in his hand. The chubby little baby giggled, as if he had seen someone who made him happy.
Gently patting his delicate hands that were constantly catching on his face, Zhang Chen smiled and looked at the textile machine beside him.
"This is what is called fate? Well, it's really a tradition."
Ian stared at his hands tightly, afraid that the blood-stained palm would do something to Brian.
"What do you want to do?" Ian roared in a low voice.
Zhang Chen curled his lips, "Hi, old man, you are really a fool. Can you even think of such a thing? What else can I need in you besides the position of the leader?"
"You want to be the leader?" Ian's beard was so angry that he blew up, "and are you going to tamper with the teachings!"
"What is tampering? It is called keeping pace with the times!" Zhang Chen said, "Since the church's teachings are no longer in line with the trend of the times, of course we have to make a little change for him. The church that sticks to the old rules has never ended well."
"But this cannot be a reason for you to use your power for personal gain!" Ian said.
Zhang Chen looked at him curiously and thought to himself that I hadn’t become the leader yet, so you insist that I would use my power for personal gain. You are really...you can see correctly!
"But there is no chance to choose now." Zhang Chen gently pinched Brian's soft and teddy neck, "This little grandson, you can choose whether to want or not, as the leader position, and you can also choose to give up or not. Anyway, I have given you the opportunity to choose with human nature. How to decide depends on you!"
Ian's face had turned pale, his body was trembling constantly, he looked at Zhang Chen coldly, and suddenly shouted loudly, "Kill him!"
Zhang Chen was shocked and secretly cried out, and he quickly flashed his body and threw Brian out of the sky.
Immediately, a white light flashed in his hand and the dart shot out instantly.
Scream!
Bang!
Blood blossomed, and a large wound appeared on Zhang Chen's arm in an instant. In front of him, the ammunition that had trained Zhang Chen's gun technology had already been lying down tilted. A silver dart pierced deeply into his brain, leaving only a tail feather trembling constantly.
Behind him, Ian was very fast and had no sense of dullness at all. He stretched out his hand and immediately hugged Brian in his hand. At the same time, he pulled his left hand and the pistol was immediately in his hand.
Zhang Chen had already understood Ian's exquisite shooting skills, so he naturally did not dare to delay. He quickly stepped out and rolled quickly. He soon ran out of the basement.
Before he could take a breath, Zhang Chen immediately held his breath.
Groups of workers stood far away, their eyes pinned against him, and by his side, there were a large number of assassins who were eyeing him and were planning to take action at any time.
"Sloan, what are you doing!" Suddenly, a loud roar came, Zhang Chen's eyes turned around, and he saw Patton with a purple face roaring loudly, "Do you want to destroy the loom of fate?"
Having said that, Zhang Chen could clearly see a glimmer of joy in his eyes, which was clearly the ultimate joy of Zhang Chen's actions.
Zhang Chen opened his mouth, intending to say something.
However, a group of assassins stared at him, as if once he dared to act rashly, he would take action in an instant.
Ian walked out slowly, looking at the crowded crowds, frowned, and then said righteously, "Sloan, you have repeatedly destroyed the rules and order of the church. I can no longer tolerate you! Now, I will conduct a judgment on you and repent your sins!"
