Il
preferito
.
The
man
who
would
be
Pope
.
Lying
dead
before
him
.
Somehow
,
even
now
,
prostrate
in
the
shadows
on
the
semisubmerged
ledge
,
Cardinal
Baggia
retained
an
air
of
quiet
dignity
.
The
water
lapped
softly
across
his
chest
,
seeming
almost
remorseful
…
as
if
asking
forgiveness
for
being
the
man
’
s
ultimate
killer
…
as
if
trying
to
cleanse
the
scalded
wound
that
bore
its
name
.
Gently
,
Langdon
ran
a
hand
across
the
man
’
s
face
and
closed
his
upturned
eyes
.
As
he
did
,
he
felt
an
exhausted
shudder
of
tears
well
from
within
.
It
startled
him
.
Then
,
for
the
first
time
in
years
,
Langdon
cried
.
The
fog
of
weary
emotion
lifted
slowly
as
Langdon
waded
away
from
the
dead
cardinal
,
back
into
deep
water
.
Depleted
and
alone
in
the
fountain
,
Langdon
half
-
expected
to
collapse
.
But
instead
,
he
felt
a
new
compulsion
rising
within
him
.
Undeniable
.
Frantic
.
He
sensed
his
muscles
hardening
with
an
unexpected
grit
.
His
mind
,
as
though
ignoring
the
pain
in
his
heart
,
forced
aside
the
past
and
brought
into
focus
the
single
,
desperate
task
ahead
.
Find
the
Illuminati
lair
.
Help
Vittoria
.
Turning
now
to
the
mountainous
core
of
Bernini
’
s
fountain
,
Langdon
summoned
hope
and
launched
himself
into
his
quest
for
the
final
Illuminati
marker
.
He
knew
somewhere
on
this
gnarled
mass
of
figures
was
a
clue
that
pointed
to
the
lair
.
As
Langdon
scanned
the
fountain
,
though
,
his
hope
withered
quickly
.
The
words
of
the
segno
seemed
to
gurgle
mockingly
all
around
him
.
Let
angels
guide
you
on
your
lofty
quest
.
Langdon
glared
at
the
carved
forms
before
him
.
The
fountain
is
pagan
!
It
has
no
damn
angels
anywhere
!
When
Langdon
completed
his
fruitless
search
of
the
core
,
his
eyes
instinctively
climbed
the
towering
stone
pillar
.
Four
markers
,
he
thought
,
spread
across
Rome
in
a
giant
cross
.
Scanning
the
hieroglyphics
covering
the
obelisk
,
he
wondered
if
perhaps
there
were
a
clue
hidden
in
the
Egyptian
symbology
.
He
immediately
dismissed
the
idea
.
The
hieroglyphs
predated
Bernini
by
centuries
,
and
hieroglyphs
had
not
even
been
decipherable
until
the
Rosetta
Stone
was
discovered
.
Still
,
Langdon
ventured
,
maybe
Bernini
had
carved
an
additional
symbol
?
One
that
would
go
unnoticed
among
all
the
hieroglyphs
?
Feeling
a
shimmer
of
hope
,
Langdon
circumnavigated
the
fountain
one
more
time
and
studied
all
four
façades
of
the
obelisk
.
It
took
him
two
minutes
,
and
when
he
reached
the
end
of
the
final
face
,
his
hopes
sank
.
Nothing
in
the
hieroglyphs
stood
out
as
any
kind
of
addition
.
Certainly
no
angels
.
