Uriel had never met Father Dunbar Fielding, and he wondered whether the comfort he sought to find lay in the tragically murdered priest. It seems like Otto is deliberately against me, the apprentice thought.
"Who spread the news?" The mysterious man's extraordinary physical fitness made Uriel hear the Sheriff's muttering. "Okay! Now that everything is together, I want to go home and have a good holiday." When he said this, Uriel thought that Gaia's Day of Repentance was approaching. Eastman gave his followers the day off, and Blumnot was no exception.
The Sheriff is obviously a believer in Gaia, and not a mysterious creature. His body is like a winter melon, his legs are like a carrot, and his head is like a cabbage. After dressing up in the Sheriff's black uniform and high-heeled leather boots, his stern face was quite scary. However, facing a group of devout believers of the Goddess Gaia, the majesty he spoke with at this moment was worse than nothing at all.
"Of course I will explain it to you." The vegetable platter chief blushed, his voice overwhelming all other sounds. "And the priest was not murdered, it was just an accident. Oh my God, how many times do I have to say this before you understand?"
"Accident? Got into a car accident? Fell off a floating island?"
"It wasn't him the damn murderer wanted to kill. And this guy is already dead."
"So, poor Father Fielding died as a result of someone else's crime - or was he a dead man?" the gentleman pressed closer.
"Maybe, maybe the murderer is someone else." The Sheriff was a little panicked. This sounds like Agatha's reasoning, but he himself supports the former statement.
The crowd was in an uproar. "How can you say it was an accident?" the gentleman said sharply.
"I will give everyone a satisfactory explanation." At this moment, a voice came from behind Sheriff Vegetable. "The Sheriff's Department will find out the truth, whether the murderer is dead or alive... We will send him to Gaia's judgment table. He will go to hell in repentance. Are you satisfied now?" Agatha Poirot The dispute ended quickly and decisively, causing both parties to lose face.
She stepped forward and stood beside the commander. Her calm and clear gray eyes were full of excitement and vitality, and alert enough to deal with any unexpected situation - in other words - her eyes were full of aggression.
Her words are fast and crisp, and her bite makes people nervous about her tongue. But it also gave her an aura. In short, compared to the hoarse but smooth and low-key yelling of the vegetable platter boss next to him, Agatha Poirot's guarantee is simply a judgment on the criminal. That kind of certainty will undoubtedly make you feel nervous about her retreat. But I have to say that these words are really crisp and powerful at this moment. That was the answer the leading gentleman wanted. But Uriel could tell from his face that he probably didn't expect the process to go so smoothly.
The believer bowed deeply to her, "Then please, Miss Poirot. May Gaia bless you." He left first. The crowd of Gaia believers once again showed amazing discipline. They disappeared into the intricate streets like water flowing through ravines.
The vegetable chief wiped his sweat and ordered his men to carry the body onto the carriage. "I would rather that everyone who died died peacefully and happily, because they were called by the gods. They could also be kind enough to lighten the burden for us unsaved guys. Damn it, I think we should be pitied more ." he complained.
"Confession Day is in three days. Do you have any plans for your vacation, Chief Johnny?" said the detective consultant.
"Good question." Johnny muttered, "Only you would care, Miss Agatha, I'm so honored... My holiday plan is to spend the whole day in the rocking chair in the back garden, maybe I’ll pair it with some white wine.”
"It's full of poetry and picturesqueness." She commented, "There's nothing wrong with giving yourself a little quiet time." If Uriel heard correctly, the consulting detective sounded as if he knew the criminal well and could kill him within three days. It's the same as arresting people. He couldn't help but look at her twice.
Unexpectedly, this subconscious move brought him trouble. Agatha turned her head and asked him: "You know Father Fielding, don't you?"
I? The apprentice couldn't help but take two steps back in front of her powerful aura, even though the consultant lady was not taller than his chest. "What? Father Fielding? How could I know...I mean, I've never met him." He finally answered completely, and began to feel that the cook was not exaggerating.
"Do you want to see him?" she asked curiously.
"he died."
"It doesn't matter what you were thinking before you learned of his death." These words made several patrol officers around her stop.
"I'm sorry, miss, are you doubting me?"
"It's not that you are a murderer." The Detective Queen explained, "I mean, you seem to have something important to do and you have to see him - don't deny it, I can always see your expression. The Death of Dunbar Fielding It really hit you hard. You looked like you were in dire need of his help."
It turned out to be because of this. "You misunderstood." Uriel did not dare to neglect this uniformed member of the Security Bureau. The tower apprentice robe he wore did not give him any inexplicable confidence. "I just want to find a priest to confess my sins. Of course, not the sin of murder. I think what I need is not the deceased Father Fielding, but a quiet and solemn confessional and two rolls of mint-flavored sedatives. ” He suddenly realized that his testimony was not that convincing.
"Then I'm sorry to bother you, sir. Pay my respects to your mentor. You must be His Excellency Bai Zhishi's apprentice, right?"
"How did you—" the apprentice stopped as he suddenly understood. The girl in front of him was called the Detective Queen. I'm afraid this was the explanation. Besides, my features are pretty easy to identify. "I will definitely convey your words." He said politely. After the episode, he began to feel distraught again.
The Detective Queen let him go temporarily, but the vegetable police sergeant just finished the work at hand. "An astrologer from a high tower." He had a funny and cute smile on his face, but he didn't seem to be deliberately trying to please. "Apprentice of the White Envoy? Well, I probably don't understand the recent news about Chloe... I am the senior patrol officer of the Public Security Bureau in Bloomnot, Macon Johnny. I am happy to serve the big shots in the tower."
"Please don't say that, Sir Johnny, I haven't graduated yet." The apprentice corrected. "It was an accident to light the fire. I have not yet received permission to graduate from the basics of occult science."
"I see you don't have those bad habits of astrologers."
what is that? "As an apprentice, I'm actually not qualified." He could only answer vaguely, hoping that this would make others not think he was arrogant. This was a compliment to me, rather a compliment to Bai Zhizhi... Uriel suddenly realized that Joey had not brought him any trouble. Although this is still far from even.
Both of them would be embarrassed if they continued to chat, the tower apprentice and the mortal Sheriff. They had nothing to say in the first place. Uriel said knowingly: "I'm still busy going to the next church. I'll see you later, Vegeta... Sir Johnny. I really hope I didn't delay your work."
The vegetable constable hurriedly walked down the steps. "Not at all." He also gave a suggestion, "There is no second Gaia church nearby. Maybe you can go to the ring area and have a look."
The most prosperous area in Brumnot is the distance from Far Light Harbor to the foot of the mountain. After this period, people are forced to face the countless steps in the ring city. The closer you get to the harbor, the richer the streets are with shops and pedestrians. Uriel opened the map and looked for the Gaia Church in the first ring area. With the main church in the harbor being the first choice for church believers, most likely it would be desolate.
He followed the instructions until the arrow began to flash near and far at the entrance of a certain alley. The quality of such mysterious items that can be seen everywhere is always low. Sometimes it just breaks down on the way, and it will return to normal sooner or later. But there will also be detours and wrong directions. When the user finds that he has passed through the entire Brumnot and returned to the starting point, no matter how tolerant the person is, he will not be able to bear it.
Unlike his classmates and Joey, Uriel is happy to go to the library, which is related to the reading habit he has developed since he was a child. However, such happy time existed in the gaps between courses, which was too rare for him. Apprentices often read few books. But maybe Kamaria's misfortune was the reverse of his luck. Not long ago, he happened to find the basic instructions for repairing the mysterious item.
Mysterious items also have quality differences, but generally they are classified according to purpose. Which level of mystic can use it, it will be regarded as the same mysterious item. In this way, Katie's inkwell is probably not high-grade, and the same goes for the Scroll of Oath. The tower ring is a status symbol, and has no significance in dividing classes in mysticism... Maybe the Night Whispering Ring is a mysterious item from the Sky Realm. Before this, he had never imagined that the map of a bad street in his hand could be considered a saint. The reason is that it plays an irreplaceable role in guiding the direction.
But no amount of praise can cover up the problem that this poor map breaks down when it encounters high-level mysterious fields. The apprentice followed the instructions in the book and used magic to isolate the thing from the outside world. Sure enough, the arrow returned to normal.
Now that I can repair mysterious items at the level of a saint, he thought in amusement, the tower maintenance department should also invite me. Maybe it would be easier for me to have more options.
Uriel walked between two rows of shops, and the map in his hand began to flash again. "What inexplicable mysterious field is there around here?" He said to himself, "Isn't there anything that can make me happy today? Goddess Gaia, please help me get out of this ghost place as soon as possible." He thought I am really unlucky. The first ring area was like a maze, and every street looked the same to him.
