Clinos walked in the direction of the church, the only place in the village that could be called a hospital. People with hysteria and incurable diseases www.biquge.info live in a shelter attached to the church. The asylum was built with the Imperial Guard's investment, and some say it was an order from their superiors, to improve the image of the Imperial Guard, to put more gold in their pockets, and so on.

"What's going on?"

"This is obviously poisoned, don't you understand?"

"My eyes are blind, my voice is hoarse, and I am still unconscious. Who do you say has such a poison?"

"That witch little ****, I said a long time ago that she is not a good stubble. ”

"Why don't you just poison him, do you have to spare his life?"

"Eighty percent wants to take revenge on him, you also know how Otis has used various potions to ask for rewards in the past few years, and that **** didn't even catch a fraction of a fraction. ”

"What are we going to do? Kill that witch?"

"Use your brains, we rush to kill people, we can only attract hatred in vain. There is no evidence, no witnesses, and it is all in our own imagination, which is simply to write the slogan 'We are derelict and crazy' on our heads. ”

"So what are we going to do now?"

"Go to Otis's mansion, the **** may not have poisoned him by accident, and it is likely that he will commit murder again. ”

"Aren't there already 20 people guarding there? ”

"If he dies, things are complicated. The Imperial Commissioner can only be delegated, and after his death, the Imperial Guard will remain a virtual puppet until a new Commissioner takes office. ”

"I don't care so much, it doesn't matter where I work, I'm just in the Imperial Guard to make ends meet. ”

Klinos was walking along the road when he heard the oncoming Imperial Guard soldiers.

After a while, the outline of the church appeared in the moonlight. The church is small and has nothing to boast about other than the standard Rant's shape. On the other hand, the asylum built against the church has its own walls and gates, and the walls without signs are filled with fancy carvings.

Clinos walked through the unlocked doors of the church, and Brother Harris stood on the pulpit with his back to the rose window as if waiting for him. A few rays of moonlight poured into the church through the window, giving a better view of the church.

When the monk saw Klinus coming in, he hurriedly lit the candlestick with a fire. After some enlightenment, the monk said:

"Mr. Mage, what are you doing? ”

"There's no need to bother lighting candles. With a wave of his hand, Klinus extinguished the candlesticks. But the light in the room did not diminish and the roof of the church emitted a little red light, like a red night sky. Klinus continued, "Has the Imperial Commissioner called Odis ever been here?"

"Yes sir. Brother Harris said, "He was incurable when he was brought in, and the poison caused him irreparable damage. ”

"Who did that?" asked Clinos.

"I don't know. ”

"How do you think this happened? Did anyone threaten Mr. Otis, and did it have anything to do with the Wraith?"

The monk replied with difficulty, "Sir is a questioning machine, but I don't know any of the connections. ”

"Then we can start with what you know. Can you tell me about the victims of the Wraith?"

"They are honest hunters, sir. ”

"I'm not asking this, I'm asking if the cause of their death was the work of the spirits?"

The monk said with a firm face, "Mr. Mage, the resentful spirits really exist, and I have no doubt that they will appear in such a place. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Sir, you can come with me to the shelter. The monk said.

Klinus followed him through the side door of the church and into the courtyard of the asylum. Klinos saw a woman sitting on a stone bench in the middle of the courtyard, staring at the moon motionlessly.

"She had to look at the moon like that every night. Brother Harris said, "She was a mage who was not in the middle of the stream, but then she became a madman and was sent here. Every night when she could see the moon, she would noisily come to see the moon. ”

Clinos looked at it and said, "And what about when you can't see the moon?"

"She will become docile like a cat, and she will not get angry no matter how much she is stimulated. The monk said: "It is said that she often went on moonlit dates with her husband. ”

"Who's his husband?" asked Clinos.

"A rich man, or an active political participant in Shudi Village. He's dead. ”

"What about her wife. ”

"Her wife has always been a strong woman and has been avenging her husband since his death. Then one day, she went crazy. The monk said.

"And you don't think she's hurt by love, do you?" said Clinos.

Brother Harris looked at Klinos' suspicious face and said, "I wouldn't be surprised if she was hurt by love." There are quite a few people here, just like her. All day long, his eyes are empty, like walking corpses. She is still the lucky one who will be angry when there is a moon. I even felt comforted for her, because anger and incomprehensible actions are what a madman really looks like. But others, as if their souls had been stolen, became shells. ”

"If she had been murdered, the sinner would have been easy to find. Who took his husband's money?" asked Clinos.

"Imperial Guard, sir. They used the couple's estate to pay for her maintenance. ”

"It's gratifying...... "what does this have to do with the resentful spirits you are talking about?"

"Mr. Mage, I think their souls wander around their own shells and end up being resentful. These souls who died in tragedy go and create tragedy. Please be sure to save them from the misery of this world. Brother Harris said.

"Glory comes down from heaven, and those who deserve to be saved see it and are redeemed from the misery of this world. Code of Etalon Prophecy, Verse 17. Clinos said, "Do you think I am the glory of heaven?" I almost believed what you said. ”

"You should believe me, I'm not lying!" said Brother Harris.

"The question is not whether you are lying or not, the question is why are you telling me, do you really believe that a mage you meet for the first time is the glory of heaven?" Clinos laughed, "What you said about the Imperial Guard is a felony if it is revealed. But you still gave me hints unabashedly, knocking on the side. Why? Somebody told you, I'm coming, is it all planned?"

Brother Harris swallowed and said, "I just think that the mage from Kanta will be able to solve the things we can't solve. ”

"And what you're talking about is exposing the evil deeds of the Imperial Guard. That's an extremely dangerous and difficult thing to do, even for me. But you told me this without any worries, so I couldn't help but be suspicious of you. By the way, I never said I was from Kanta. "Can you tell me, who led you against the Imperial Guard?" said Clinos.

Seeing that he could no longer conceal it, Brother Harris said in distress about his immature lying skills, "I am a friend of Eunice, and she has been blackmailed and used by the Imperial Guard. Although everyone is like this, Eunice has suffered too much in her life. ”

"Your Excellency, I must be able to get to the point. ”

"Of course, not so long ago, before Odis was carried into the church by his soldiers. She told me that the group of Clinos from Kanta could put an end to the Imperial Guard's assault in the village of the bottom of the tree. Told me not to treat Odis, and told you about the asylum. The Imperial Guard threw their enemies and disobedient people into here, turning them into walking dead hysteries with poison. ”

"The poison was provided by Eunice, isn't it? Klinos said.

"She's being used!" said the monk excitedly, "and if she doesn't, the Imperial Guard will have a hundred reasons to hang her." ”

"Take it easy, I have no doubt that Eunice is an innocent person. But how is she going to use tonight's chaos to bring down the Imperial Guard?" said Clinos.

"She doesn't do anything, the credit and the hard work are yours. In her words, this is to push the boat with the flow and guide according to the situation. She was confident that Mr. Clinos and the Miss Assassin would handle the matter perfectly. If Clinos finds out about her plans, let me relay your promise that 'if you need anything in the future, you will do your best to help'. ”

Remembering that he had indeed said this, Clinos gazed at the woman sitting on the stone bench and said, "With the Seven Holy Spirits and the One God above, I will help even if I have not made a promise." ”
