Chapter 16: Investigation

Forsaken Lands, Temples.

Liang Feifei sat on the sarcophagus and rubbed the puppet in his hand, the mysterious ritual of the twelve candles, the blonde girl's performance and attitude, and the scavenger team and the temple all pointed to a less than real answer.

He slowly lowered the puppet and looked at the temple that he had defined as heaven, gradually determining the truth of this not-so-true answer.

"Crossing into the gods... Is it?"

Liang Feifei sighed with a calm face, and the slight excitement disappeared after thinking calmly, if gods are also divided into types, then there is no doubt that he is now just a corner and an incompetent god.

He believes that there is no such thing in the world that happens for no reason, and that any result is caused by a cause, which also means that there must be a corresponding cause for crossing into God, but there is no way to investigate the cause for the time being.

There is no way to know the reason, so we can only accept the result first, at least in the current situation, it is better than death.

Liang Feifei made up his mind and walked along the edge of the temple, initially estimating that the entire temple was about 100 square meters, with only the main hall and garden and a stone door leading to the forsaken land, and the only objects were sarcophagi, the mask left behind by the killing of the soul-sucking tree, and the puppet that could establish a one-way connection with the blonde girl.

"Hmm... It's empty, or poor, and as a god it's too frugal, meaning let me start from scratch?"

Liang Feifei exhaled fiercely, and said secretly in his heart:

"I don't care who you are or for what purpose, but you'd better send me back!"

On the earth, he has the idea of traveling through nature, but when this kind of thing really happens, he will clearly and truly feel that this is not a fortunate thing, because the things to pay for it are too heavy.

He is not a person who has lost hope in life and is full of resentment towards his family and friends, he has a good life and a longing for the future, as well as a love that he is fully committed to.

"!"

The more Liang Feifei thought about it, the more angry he became, the more depressed he became, pounding the wall like a vent, until his hands were swollen and he gasped and stopped.

After only a few breaths, his swollen hands had already recovered as before, Liang Feifei stared at the temple with a grin and smiled:

"Then use your hands. ”

.......

The night's torrential rain still had some lingering effects until the first dawn of the morning, and the hazy mist weighed down the entire village of Leo.

There was a quick knock on the door.

Roddy opened his eyes suddenly, he basically didn't fall asleep this night, although he tried his best to hypnotize himself, but the effect was almost zero, and the knock on the door at this time was obviously not the mother who went to work and turned back, let alone the neighbor, because it was too early.

So, Roddy is sure that the church is a person, Dai You said that the church would come to investigate soon, but I didn't expect it to be so soon, and it was only one night!

There was another knock on the door, and Roddy heard a man with a strong voice shouting:

"Is there anyone, we're from the Downtown District Police Station. ”

Policeman? Luo Di was slightly stunned, quickly got up, and put on a coat at random.

After opening the door, Roddy saw two men in police uniforms, one had a rough appearance and the police uniform had the feeling of being worn into tights, while the other was much shorter and not as tall as Roddy.

At the same time, they both pulled out the police certificate from the left corset.

"We're from the Downtown Divisional Police Station, and I'm Captain Bob. The gruff man gestured to the diminutive policeman, "He's my assistant, Ash." ”

Roddy hurriedly replied and stepped out of the way.

"Hello sheriffs, please come in. ”

Roddy hurriedly moved two stools, but Bob didn't mean to sit down.

"It looks like you're upset about their deaths. Bob said, looking at Roddy's bloodshot eyes.

Roddy duly showed a look of grief.

"Yes, Mr. Policeman. ”

Bob gestured to Ash with his eyes, and Ash quickly took out a small notebook and made it look like he was recording it at any time.

"That's right, I know that there is a waste picking team in your village, but the number of people who died this year is a bit large, and the four lives you know are no longer a trivial matter, and you need to do some simple understanding and filing. ”

Roddy nodded in agreement, and at the same time looked extremely sad.

Bob scrutinized Roddy carefully before continuing:

"I'm sorry to disturb your rest, but we're just here to make a brief note, and we won't delay you too much. ”

Roddy nodded that he didn't mind, and Bob changed abruptly.

"I heard that your father is also dead?"

Luo Di's heart sank, and he secretly said that he was indeed a member of the church, and after thinking about the preparations he had made in advance, he said:

"Yes.. My father... Just last night..."

Roddy performed perfectly, with red eyes and a choked tone.

Suddenly, Roddy felt a trance, a slight numbness in his body, and then immediately came to his senses, at this time he found that Bob and Ash were already sitting on the stool, and the notebook in Ash's hand had been put away, while Bob took out a manual, and prepared paper and pen at the same time.

Roddy realizes that this is what Dai calls the state of dreaming.

At the same time, I understood that the opportunity to fall asleep should be to take the opportunity to enter when the target's mood fluctuates, but fortunately, I was prepared in advance, and at the same time, I hurriedly showed a sluggish and just right amount of hypnosis.

"How did your father die?"

Roddy shook his head slightly, and then made a frowning expression, a little scared, and a little sad.

"My father died right before my eyes, little by little, and little by little, it became transparent, and then it became a glowing stone. ”

Bob nodded and continued:

"Did your father say anything to you before he died?"

Roddy shook his head.

"Nope. ”

Bob pondered for a moment and continued to ask:

"Was there anything unusual about your father before that, such as often locking himself in his room for long periods of time, or talking to himself incomprehensibly?"

Luo Di secretly said that the measures made by Dai were indeed useful, and after thinking about it, he said according to the words prepared in advance:

"My father used to be alone in the room, because he would carve some little puppets, which he would sell every Saturday to the town to fill the house, and as for some strange things... I'm not impressed. ”

Bob frowned slightly, looking a little disappointed, and after a while Roddy thought that this was the end of the matter, but Bob opened the manual page by page, until he reached a certain page, and then turned it over to show Roddy.

Roddy looked at the pattern on the manual and almost lost control, but tried his best to hide himself, but the pattern really shocked him, if it wasn't for taking some drugs to deal with dreams and the help of rituals in advance, it was hard to be sure if he would be able to play this scene perfectly.

"Do you have an impression of this?"

Roddy shook his head slowly, showing a puzzled look.

Bob put away the manual and quickly asked the next question, as if he didn't care about Roddy's reaction to the manual.

"Where is that stone now?"

"I handed it over to Ms. Dai Haldans, the abbot of the village church. ”

Bob carefully observed Roddy's expression, and at the same time, Roddy felt a clear stream flash through his mind, and his body's consciousness returned.

Roddy understands that the dream is over, but the play he wants to play is not over yet.

"Just last night..."

Bob interrupted Roddy at the right time, and said half-reassuringly:

"I sincerely mourn the death of your father, and we need to visit the other residents. ”

After watching the 'policemen' leave, Roddy knew that the next two 'policemen' should go to the church to find Dai, but they still had to play to the end.

He didn't know if the church people were leaving at this time, so he pretended to be unwell and went back to bed and began to catch up on sleep.

It's just that his hand is inadvertently on his left chest, where there is a pattern engraved, a pattern written in Bob's booklet.

In fact, Bob and Ash, who had long since left, were standing in the fog not far away.

"Captain, it looks like this time it's going to be useless again. ”

Ash said with a little frustration.

Bob stared at Roddy's residence, shook his head slightly, and nodded slowly.

He was sure what Roddy had seen in the manual, but he disguised it well and reacted very quickly.

An ordinary person can subconsciously hide something in a dreaming state.

"Is it something extraordinary, or maybe he's hiding something. ”

"Captain, what are you talking about?" Ash looked at the captain suspiciously.

Bob shook his head, didn't say anything, confirmed the direction and walked in the direction of the village church, and Ash hurriedly followed.
