Chapter 62: Strange Things
"What can we see, what can we hear? It was a day that was completely different from usual, but unexpectedly, the new priest was suddenly killed. The old lady said regretfully.
"But...... But the wanted man will always leave a trail when he sneaks into the abbey," said Agnes, a little incoherent, as she whispered, "no one has seen any strange people?" ”
The old lady shook her head, and seemed to remember something, and said to Angnes, "There were no strange people that day, but the next day the Farrs found a set of bloodstained clothes thrown on the ground in their house. ”
"Ahh Agnes let out a small exclamation, then covered her mouth.
It was Mrs. Farr who found out, and she was so frightened that she called the police. At first, the police told Mrs. Farr not to let anyone enter the room where the clothes were found, but then, without knowing what had come out of the investigation, they took the clothes away, and nothing happened. It wasn't until the murder of the priest of the monastery of Pafra was reported that we learned some of the follow-ups. Mrs. Farr guessed that it was left by the wanted man at night, most likely because it had been stained with the blood of the priest and had been thrown away. The old lady was pleased with Angnes' reaction, and lowered her voice and leaned into Agnes' ear.
Agnes couldn't help but think of the clothes she had left behind at an unknown house, stained with the blood of the black-haired monster, and couldn't help but cry and laugh.
"The Nafar family is lucky." With a frightened expression, Agnes whispered, "The wanted criminals have entered their house." ”
"yes." The old lady sighed and said, "Mrs. Farr has been sick with fright. ”
"Didn't she hear any strange noises that night?" Agnes asked.
"That's what I asked her." The old lady shook her head, and said, "Mrs. Farr said that they slept very deeply that night, and did not hear any movement at all. ”
"Actually, the Farr family is lucky, if they hear something and go to check, it won't be good if they accidentally bump into a wanted criminal." Agnes said.
The old lady nodded approvingly and said, "I think so too." They're lucky. ”
"Is there anything strange about it other than the Farrs?" Agnes asked.
The old lady seemed to be very talkative, and she deliberately lowered her voice and said to Agnes, "And, of course, little Remo's illness was inexplicably cured a few days before the priest was killed, and I asked his mother, Mrs. Pez, how she was cured, and she refused to say whether she was alive or dead. ”
"Huh?" Agnes looked surprised, and she asked eagerly, "What about later?" Did you know it later? ”
"Don't mention it," said the old lady, shaking her head, "the day after the priest was killed, little Remo was taken away by the church. ”
"Why?" Agnes looked surprised.
The old lady shook her head and said, "I don't know very well, but I guess it's not a good way, when the church people came to the door, Mrs. Petz's face was very pale, and she was as pale as you." ”
Agnes nodded in frustration.
"Well, thank you, mother-in-law." Agnes nodded, carefully putting down the glass and saying, "I think it's time for me to go." ”
"Are you going back next?" The old lady also stood up and asked
"No, I'd still like to visit the Pavra Monastery." Agnes shook her head and said.
"I told you all about it, the monastery is still in lockdown." The old lady shook her head and said.
"Well, but it's always unpleasant not to take a look." Agnes smiled wryly.
"Okay." The old lady waved her hand and said, "You can see it at the end of the street, and it is estimated that there are still people from the church guarding the monastery." ”
"Well, thank you, mother-in-law." Agnes said with a smile and nodded.
......
Agnes stood under the eaves in front of a bakery and looked at the monastery of Pavla, not far away.
The Monastery of Pavra is perfectly greeted by the summer morning sun, and the bluestone and marble walls have a strange coolness that makes people feel awe-inspiring when they see it.
Agnes hadn't seen the old lady talking about the church on this side for a while, but it was probably around here. After all, the monastery was sealed off because of the possibility of uneliminated pollution, and it is unlikely that the Church will allow people who do not have sufficient means to resist pollution to enter the monastery until the pollution is eliminated.
And obviously, the members who are generally sent to supervise ordinary people not to enter will certainly not be members of the higher ranks, after all, they have more important things to do. According to Agnes' speculation, there is a high probability that this person is a member of the Nature Heart.
Agneth's gaze swept slightly over the people around her, carefully identifying them.
She saw a stout figure with brown hair in front of a grocery store, talking to the owner of the grocery store.
Agnes hooked the corners of her mouth and walked over there.
She walked straight to the grocery store and stood aside, waiting for the other person to finish talking to the boss.
About a minute or two later, when the other party turned to leave, he saw Agnes.
His gaze lingered on Agnes for a moment, and he walked across the street, Agnes following him.
Agnes followed the other to a lonely house at the end of the street, where she took out the key to open the door and pulled the chair from the side of the table.
"Sit down, Agnes" he smiled at Agnes and walked to the other side.
Agnes stepped forward and sat down, and the other sat down as well.
"Long time no see, Pierce." Agnes said with a chin on her back.
Pierce Coyle, a member of Nature's Heart Squad and a "Martial Artist" of Sequence 8, met her on her first trip to the Izulia Institute of Biology, when he was still trying to fight with Agnes, but was stopped by Alyssa.
Pierce nodded, also showed a little smile, nodded, and said, "It's been two months, and it's been a long time." ”
"I heard that you were required to take a forced leave by the church, and I thought I wouldn't see you anymore." Pierce said with some emotion.
"If only you were still in the squad, you could also help with the mission."
Agnes laughed at Pierce's words. She shook her head and asked, "What, is the church busy during this time?" ”
"Alas, since the accident at the Abbey of Pavra, the tasks of the Church have suddenly increased, and the number of people available has decreased. Many of the tasks for these two months were explicitly required to be carried out by members of the non-'cultivator' and 'pharmacist' pathways, keeping me, Damo, and Krash busy. Pierce looked a little weak.
