Hawkes didn't expect that Ashley would suddenly break in and witness her stealing the money bag.

In desperation, he threw Asley down, covering Asley's mouth with one hand and pinching Asley's neck with the other!

Hawkes didn't think much of it, it was just his instinctive reaction.

You should know that the dormitory is right next to the small Nok building.

Although there is still a small courtyard across the door, in a quiet environment, it will be troublesome for Ashley to scream.

People in the small building can definitely hear it.

When the time comes, his theft will be exposed, let alone leave as planned, and thank God for not being sent to prison by Lilian, who is annoyed and angry!

Therefore, he only wanted to control Aisley in a hurry, and did not want to hurt Aisley.

After all, they are companions who have lived together for two years, and they are somewhat affectionate.

Ashley didn't expect that she had just broken Hawkes' theft, and Hawkes was about to kill her!

Feeling the strength in her neck, fear and grievances welling up in her heart, Ashley felt that it was becoming more and more difficult to breathe.

She was two years older than Hawkes though.

But she's a girl, and she's stunted.

is about the same size as Hawkes, and his strength is naturally not comparable to that of Hawkes, who suddenly exploded.

Soon, Ashley's struggle became less and less intense, until she stopped moving.

Seeing that Ashley no longer resisted, Hawks, who breathed a sigh of relief, let go of Ashley.

It was only when he came back to his senses that he realized what he had done!

"Ashley! Acely! Wake up! Don't scare me! ”

Hawkes shook Ashley's body nervously, whispering her name.

But Ashley, who was silent, made Hawkes understand that he had killed Essley by mistake!

He just wanted to steal some money to leave this monastery that couldn't protect himself, and he didn't think about killing anyone!

What to do!

What to do!

For a moment, Hawkes panicked.

He dropped the futon off the bed and covered Ashley's body without even thinking about it.

At the same time, he looked around the room, his confused mind constantly thinking about how to cover up the fact that he had killed someone.

Pregnant!

When Hawkes saw the oil lamp on the wall, he thought of a way to destroy the corpse.

He turned on all the oil lamps in the room and sprinkled the oil all over the floor of the room.

He threw the bedding on the floor and furniture, and moved Asley's "corpse" to the bed.

Then, he found his clothes and packed a bag, took his savings and stolen money, and resolutely walked out of the dormitory.

At the door of the dormitory, he prepared half a candle and lit it, and placed it on a linen garment, which had been infected with lamp oil, and poured out a line of fire oil on the ground to reach the floor of the room.

As soon as the candles burn out, the clothes will be set on fire, and then the lamp oil on the ground will be lit, and the dormitories will be set on fire.

By then, he had already left England City with the money and headed for the port.

By the time the abbey had finished putting out the fire and could not find himself, perhaps he would have arrived in France across the sea on a ship from the harbor!

Or, the fire was so great that it burned all the people of the monastery to death, and no one even cared about his Hawkes' whereabouts.

At this moment, Hawkes's heart was completely black.

Hawkes hurried out of the abbey, found a carriage a few streets away, and headed straight for English Harbour.

But Hawkes didn't know that just as he was leaving after finishing the mechanism, a figure jumped from the roof of the collective dormitory.

"What a ruthless fellow. I killed my sister, and I still want to set fire to the corpse and destroy the corpse, and I am not afraid of burning everyone with a fire? ”

"However, you are so ruthless, I won't help you, and I'm sorry for the opportunity you gave!"

The visitor kicked the candle directly and watched as the candle lit the sackcloth and the lamp oil on the ground.

Watching the tongue of fire rush into the house, he still followed up uneasily, and stood at the door to take a few looks.

The tongue of fire quickly ignited the flammable objects in the room, then the furniture, then the house.

Thick black smoke filled the room in the blink of an eye, and the choking people hurriedly exited the room.

"Good guy, this kid is young, he can't imagine that he is so sophisticated in setting fires, and he actually piled up flammable materials together in advance."

"However, it is easy to find out that it was intentional arson! But that's my business. Anyway, it's not me who is wanted. ”

"Forget it, hurry up and leave, otherwise the smoke is so big, and it will soon attract people to put out the fire."

But just as the visitor was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.

He stuck his head out and listened with his ears, as if he had caught strange movements.

"No, there are still unexpected surprises!"

The visitor's eyes lit up, and he saw that the flames were not too strong, and rushed into the fire.

Soon, he rushed out of the fire with a mass of charred white cloth, jumped over the wall in three or two strokes, and disappeared outside the wall.

The fire in the group dormitory soon spread to the entire house.

Smoke billowed into the air, making it possible to see even a few blocks away.

"Not good! Is there a fire over there? ”

"There's ...... Monastery! ”

There were people who were familiar with the nearby terrain and quickly analyzed the location of the fire.

"Not good! Help put out the fire! There was only one boy and a bunch of orphans in the monastery! Such a big fire! I'm afraid they'll be in danger! ”

Although under the oppression of the Church of Nature, people have abandoned their faith in the Holy Church, it does not mean that their hearts are cold.

In the face of disaster, people can always lend a certain hand while ensuring their own safety.

There are even some people who would rather not care about their own safety than sacrifice themselves for others.

People from nearby streets, carrying buckets and wooden basins, rushed to the monastery.

And in the convent, when the smoke rises, it is discovered by Avril who is facing the direction of the window.

So, when Lillian, who was lying on the window, found out that the dormitory was on fire, she ordered the two little ones to stay and take care of Nock, and rushed downstairs with Collow.

Outside the dormitory, the raging fire and heat blocked the way for the two.

There was no way, Lillian could only take Collowell to the well in the backyard, and the two frantically fetched water, running to the front of the Suse with the water in the wooden basin and splashing it vigorously.

But they only had much strength, and there wasn't much left of that basin of water all the way through.

Splashing into the fire is a drop in the bucket.

However, because they were broken into and beaten today, they locked the door after sending Dr. Makerem away.

As a result, the people who came to help put out the fire were blocked at the door.

Fortunately, someone brought tools and smashed the padlock of the gate open, and this is how the swarm rushed in.

Looking at the two children who collapsed and cried outside the fire, everyone was shocked.

I thought there were children burned to death in the fire.

After all, the monastery was inhabited by a young priest and six children.

There were only two of them at the scene, so it was possible that the priest and the other children had already died in the fire!

Under the command of someone with a heart, everyone kept pumping water to extinguish the fire from the well in the backyard.

But the fire had already started, and the people with only barrels and basins could not extinguish the fire in the house.

The only way to control the fire is to prevent it from spreading to other areas.

However, although the dormitory building is only partially used by the children, as mentioned above, it is actually a large building.

There is also a large space behind it, and in addition to the children's resting area, there are more rest rooms, confinement rooms, laboratories, and storage rooms in the back.

The fire lasted a full two hours before it was extinguished.

But after the fire, there was only a small building left in the backyard of the monastery, and even the kitchen was half burned down because the bath was connected to the dormitory building.

This is also the result of the magic union sending two water mages to help extinguish the fire, otherwise, maybe the entire backyard of the monastery would be destroyed in flames.

Fortunately, the front and back yards of the monastery were separated by a fence, and the flames in the backyard did not spread to the front yard.

But the heat in the backyard forced everyone to quit the backyard.

Of course, Nock and the two little ones in the bachelor dormitory building were also picked up by everyone and placed in the parlor of the church.

Nock was unconscious, and the two little ones were frightened by the fire and looked scared.

Lillian was in a state of reel, and Collowell was glazed over.

Looking at the appearance of the children of the monastery, the people left behind looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Okay, okay, let's all disperse. I'll leave it to our police station here. ”

Alan Cowater, who was long overdue, took over the scene with the patrol and began to drive away the enthusiastic people who had been left behind.

A fire helped him find an excuse to contact Nock Lane, how could he not play on the spot.

You know, there are only two days left before the queen gives him time to close the case!

Looking at the police commissioner who almost wrote schadenfreude on his face, the people around him were dissatisfied.

In the face of the patrol police's drive, they all wrote their unhappiness on their faces.

"We are their neighbors, we shouldn't stay and take care of them, why should we be driven away!"

Aunt Su Lina, who was thick and fat, shouted dissatisfiedly, she was the proprietress of the Moulin Rouge bakery, and she was also a kind aunt who often sold bread to the children of the monastery at a discount.

Her son was a mischievous boy who often played and fought with the convent children.

Therefore, she did not hesitate to stand up and speak.

Standing on the monastery for the third time today, Makerem held up his glasses and said unquestioningly: "I am a doctor, and this place is full of patients now, and I must stay, otherwise you can take responsibility for what has happened to the children!" ”

Macrem's words made Allen very unhappy, but he didn't dare to refute it.

After all, even if he is an aristocrat, he does not dare to cause public outrage in public.

"I'm not worried that you will leave too many people behind and disturb the children's rest!"

Alan said stiffly.

Makerem and Aunt Su Lina glanced at each other, and tacitly handed over the leadership to Aunt Su Lina.

Aunt Su Lina immediately said: "Mr. Director, don't worry, we just stay and be responsible for sorting things out, and by the way, help guard the monastery's belongings, after all, there are many people, and if some unruly people do something, it will be a big loss for the children." ”

"Moreover, there are two children missing from the monastery, please send someone to investigate it as soon as possible. Whether you were killed in the fire, or whether someone took advantage of the chaos to arrest people, you need to help. As for taking care of the sick, leave it to us. ”

Makerem suddenly interjected: "That's right. I came to see a doctor at noon, when the children in the monastery were all wounded.

It is said that in the morning a group of extremely vicious people came and did something to the children of the monastery without saying a word. Several children were seriously injured. In the end, it was the young Father Ryan who used his magic to heal the children.

But Father Lane also fell unconscious due to overdraft. I suspect that the group in the morning was unwilling to take advantage of Father Lane's coma to set the fire. The Administrator is also requested to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Otherwise, don't blame me for taking the police department's incompetence to Congress! ”

Markrem's threat surprised Allen, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Who are you!"

"Mark Rem M. H. Hua! ”

"Nani!"
