0713: You who shine in the parallel world

Chapter 354: The Last Breakfast of the Day

The small courtyard that Father Louis mentioned was indeed secluded, with no one to be seen around.

The gurgling sound of the small fountain, which has been playing for many years, has added a lot of spiritual energy to the small garden. The morning light falls on the stone hair of the statue of the goddess holding a water bottle above the fountain, and disappears into the branches and leaves of the big tree behind her.

In the middle of the courtyard surrounded by flowers and plants, a long table had already been set up for them. There were a lot of food on the middle of the white table. The pancakes were even steaming hot, probably because they had just been served.

Father Luis checked the time and gave them a full 45 minutes to enjoy breakfast. To account for any communication difficulties, he arranged for a Chinese-speaking guide to accompany them throughout the museum tour. He regretted that he couldn't be there the entire time.

Everyone quickly said that there was no need to bother, and if the priest had other matters to attend to, they would just follow the tour guide's arrangements.

After bidding farewell to Father Louis, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but sigh as he watched his slender figure walk away. "I wonder if this is because of the Vatican's religious aura. Look at the priests here, they speak slowly and calmly, and they exude a sense of holiness."

"Then you'd better not be fooled by their charlatan appearance. At least some of them are good at pretending." Yu Yu shrugged. He was not familiar with Father Louis so he would not jump to conclusions for the time being, but a certain cardinal was a big fan of cigarettes and alcohol in private.

Su Xing looked at the long table, then looked at the production crew who were arranging the camera angles, and without saying a word, he ran to the far left facing the production crew and sat down.

Coincidentally, Chen Fusheng was in the same seat as him, but he was sitting on the far right, opposite Su Xing.

"I understand. You two, one on the right cheek and the other on the left cheek, right?" Wang Zhengliang, who had not yet sat down, put his hands on the back of the chair and smiled silently as he watched Guan Ya take the initiative without saying a word.

"I don't know where these two people get such a heavy idol burden. The two who look most like idols are standing aside as human standees." Wang Yuexin leaned over to Lu Hu's ear and chirped crickets at a volume that everyone could hear.

"The front seat is reserved for the person who looks most like the idol. I don't have that luck, so I'll sit on the side." Lu Hu said as he sat down next to Su Xing.

"I can't afford this blessing even if it's given to me." Wang Yuexin followed closely behind and got close to the Land Rover.

Wang Zhengliang was already sitting next to Chen Fusheng at this time. Now there were only two positions left, one C position and one deputy C position.

The bird and the fish looked at each other and rushed towards the center position at the same time. Unfortunately, compared to Yu Yu, who was agile and swift as a rabbit, Zhang Yuan was still a step slower.

"Yu Yu, is this the seat for you? Get up!" Zhang Yuan's voice was clearly gritting his teeth, but his tone was somewhat soft. He didn't sound like a fierce person, but rather like a spoiled child. "You sit over there. We are here now because of you, so you sit here."

"No, we are here today because of the efforts of all of us. I'm hungry and can't move, so you just stay here peacefully." Yu Yu said, reaching out and pulling Zhang Yuan to the C position.

Since Yu Yu was absolutely unwilling to move, Zhang Yuan hesitated for a second before accepting the current situation with a sense of peace of mind and even a little arrogance: "Since you said so, then I'll just stay here...Okay, hehe."

So why are you doing this? You're obviously sitting there happily. The others wanted to laugh when they saw the smug expression on Zhang Yuan's face.

Wang Zhengliang turned around to look at their current seats and suddenly realized something: "Hey, guys, do you remember? Our current seating arrangement is exactly the same as the seating arrangement at the Northeastern BBQ restaurant when the filming of Fast & Furious 2 started. What a coincidence!"

When Professor Wang mentioned this, everyone immediately recalled the scene when Fast and Furious 2 started filming last year.

"Yes, isn't this a coincidence? Huansheng and I are sitting far away in the middle, one on each side." Su Xing slammed the table.

"So, history is a closed loop." Lu Hu had a flash of inspiration. "In the Vatican, our current seating order, and the seating order we had before, actually resemble the scene in the painting 'The Last Supper'."

The image of the painting reflexively appeared in the brothers' minds, and then they all replaced the faces in it with their own, and they couldn't hold it in any longer.

Seeing that the others couldn't stop laughing, Lu Hu explained seriously: "No, look, it's true, this position in the distance is exactly where Jesus was..."

"Hahahaha." Wang Yuexin laughed so hard that she was out of breath. "Yuanyuan, hahaha, didn't Yuanyuan just grow a beard for a while before, with that unshaven look? I, hahahaha, I, I think of him like that, haha, and then dressing up as Jesus, hahahaha, I can't take it anymore!"

Zhang Yuan was speechless and wanted to laugh. He simply took off his coat and put it on his head, then crossed his sleeves around his neck, leaving only his face exposed.

Just like that painting.

But compared to the painting, Yu Yu felt it looked more like Grandma Wolf.

I didn’t win.

"What am I really doing..." After Zhang Yuan finished posing and found that others were laughing even louder, he also felt it was outrageous. He pulled up his clothes to cover his head and lay on the table, like an ostrich with its head buried in the dirt.

Obviously, no matter who is here, they have probably forgotten the promise they made to Father Louis before - they will never disturb others when recording the show.

But maybe the priest already knew that the seven of them could always set new decibel levels when they were together, so he brought them to this secluded and deserted courtyard?

After the meal, the seven people who had not yet avoided the painting of "The Last Supper" looked at each other, and couldn't help but start to play tricks, asking Zhao Hao to help them take a picture of "The Last Breakfast of the Day".

They pulled out their phones, searched for an image of the painting, and began assigning people based on their seats.

Jesus, played by Zhang Yuan.

Judah, played by Wang Yuexin.

Peter, played by Land Rover.

Bartholomew, played by Su Xing.

Philip, Yu Yu ornaments.

Matthew, played by Wang Zhengliang.

Ximen, played by Chen Fusheng.

However, they are all a group of cultured people, so the re-employment version of "The Last Breakfast of the Day" is somewhat different from that painting.

Su Xing put his hands on the table, stood up and leaned forward to look in Zhang Yuan's direction, pretending to be surprised and frightened, as if he was too late to stop a tragedy from happening and could only watch it happen.

The Land Rover next to him was holding a fork with a small piece of honey-covered muffin on it. He stared at Zhang Yuan wisely with an exaggerated look of anger, as if he was about to rush up to him in the next second.

As for "Judas", Wang Yuexin, holding a milk jug in his hand, sat on the ground and leaned back tactically towards Zhang Yuan. It was unclear whether he was trying to stay away from Zhang Yuan or trying to protect the milk in his hand.

In the original painting, Philip was holding his chest with his hands to show his loyalty to Jesus. At this time, Yu Yu was also touching his chest, but the gesture of holding his heart with both hands was more like heartache than loyalty and piety.

The remaining Wang Zhengliang and Chen Fusheng looked at each other.

Wang Zhengliang pointed his fingers in the direction of Zhang Yuan, as if asking Chen Fusheng to take good care of Cricket, the troublesome child, but Chen Fusheng just spread his hands, like an old father who did nothing and just stood aside.

As for "Jesus" Zhang Yuan, what is he doing?

He held orange juice in one hand and coffee in the other, and with a look of sacred piety on his face, he prepared to mix the two together to make Orange C Americano.

No wonder "Judas" holding milk betrayed him. If the people of Pizza Hut found out that he added juice to his coffee, they would scatter his ashes.

"One of you is going to betray me."

Zhang Yuan uttered that classic line and felt that he was enveloped by holy light at that moment.

"Selling out your love for Orange C America and leaving you on your back?"

"..."

"Hahahahahaha!"

"Ahhh Chen! Chu! Sheng! You are the Judas! I will fight you!" Bird Jesus was furious.

Not far away, the young priest who was following Louis heard the noise coming from the private courtyard and couldn't help but click his tongue.

"These guests are still a bit noisy."

Father Louis looked at him and smiled nonchalantly: "The Lord once said, 'If they keep silent, the stones will cry out.' What the world considers to be noisy is precisely the true nature that the Lord appreciates."

"That's fine. When the time is almost up, you can go over and take them to the museum."

"Yes, Bishop Louis."

After a while of noise, they felt a little tired and stopped for a while. They walked around the small courtyard and found that compared to the gardens and lawns open to tourists, the plants here were mostly grown wildly and irregularly, except for those that grew onto the sidewalk and were trimmed and pulled out. Therefore, they looked more fresh and vibrant.

When I looked up and happened to look under the eaves, I saw that the small eaves decorations were not anti-theft spikes, but small crosses.

They had just walked around the courtyard when a strange priest came over and said that he was asked by Bishop Louis to take them to visit the museum. It was not until then that they realized that the middle-aged priest was not an ordinary priest but a bishop.

The brothers and Zhao Haodalin simultaneously glanced at Yu Yu, whose face remained expressionless and showed no signs of clues.

Guys: Wow, Alaric’s identity and background are really useful. No wonder Yu Yu’s Query had to be anonymous.

Zhao Hao & Dalin: Nora Vinic’s influence here is indeed huge, and as they are the first Chinese variety show to interview Nora Vinic, they made a lot of money from this recording.

When we entered the museum, there were already quite a few tourists there. They were greeted by a Chinese female tour guide. Her Chinese dialect sounded a little unfamiliar, but it was not a big deal and they all understood it.

The female tour guide is one of the official tour guides of the Vatican Museums. She is familiar with every floor tile in the Vatican Museums, so she can not only lead everyone to avoid the crowds reasonably, but also explain all the essence and the history and culture behind it in an attractive way. The whole tour lasted nearly three hours, but they did not find it boring or long at all.

When they were about to leave, Bishop Louis appeared again. He gave each of them a Baroque-style cross ornament blessed by a cardinal who had baptized them in holy water. The gold content of the cross ornament was equivalent to that of a consecrated Buddha statue brought back from a temple in Shangri-La. Even if they did not believe in it, putting it in their car or at home could serve as a kind of psychological comfort.

After saying goodbye to Bishop Louis, the brothers returned to the car. Traveling with Yu Yu, they didn't have to worry about the itinerary, so no one asked the driver and tour guide, Xiao Yu, where to go next. However, Xiao Yu still explained conscientiously:

"Originally, St. Peter's Basilica should be on the same route as the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel, but our schedule is a bit tight this time, so we'll save St. Peter's for next time. Our next stop is the Pantheon. After we leave the Pantheon, we'll have a quick lunch and then head straight to the Colosseum. We plan to finish our visit between 5 and 5:30, so we'll go directly to Florence tonight and then to Pisa tomorrow afternoon."

"We'll listen to you. We'll all listen to you." said Lu Hu.

"By the way, what about the reservations for the Pantheon and the Colosseum..." Wang Yuexin asked.

"Of course, that's no problem."

"Thank you for your hard work, Yu Shao." Su Xing bowed and gave up.

"To serve my brothers."

Yu Yu said as he led everyone to the next stop, the Pantheon.
