Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 574 The Old Man and the Braised Egg

"First, first eliminate a wrong answer."

Under Song Lan's powerful slap on the table, Ye Lu quickly mastered the elimination method and helped him eliminate a wrong answer, "At that time, my sisters and I were transferred out of the 'mine'. To use your term, , that is, having a sufficient alibi!”

"You were transferred from your posts?"

Song Lan sat up straight. Such important information was almost enough to identify the mastermind behind this incident.

The church's "death angels" had just been transferred away, and there was a problem with the spiritual seal they were responsible for guarding. How could there be such a coincidence in the world?

I am afraid that only a simple night heron would not associate these two things together.

"Also, the way the saints died was bizarre."

Before Song Lan could speak, Yelu added, "They died in the psychically sealed sculptures. The archbishop said the person who killed them must be a very powerful psychic."

In order to investigate the reason why the "mine" was out of control, the "Death Angels" were once ordered to return to the psychic seals where the five saints were to conduct an investigation. From the outside, these sculptures that bound the saints were intact. However, when they broke the sculpture, they found that the saints inside had been burned, leaving only five empty skins.

In the words of the Archbishop, the person who killed them knew the structure of the psychic seal very well. He penetrated the psychic energy into the sculptures tailor-made for the saints, burning them from the inside.

After the death of the saints, the supply of psychic seals was cut off, and mutants that broke through the seals continued to emerge from the "mines", resulting in the current situation in the Third Neutral Country.

There is a group of people in the church who believe that someone has betrayed the church and God the Father. They are eager to pull the traitors out of the crowd, tie them to the execution platform, and watch them being burned in the fire with their own eyes. However, there is another group of people who believe that this is not the case. It is the conspiracy of the Barossa Group. They want to use this method to plunge the church into internal fighting so that they can reap the benefits.

Song Lan asked again, "Who transferred you from your posts at that time?"

"We only obeyed the orders of the Archbishop himself. The believers discovered a secret society that the Barossa Group had penetrated into the church. We wiped out all the members of the society."

This is where the Barossa Group conspiracy theory comes in.

Some insiders believe that the Barossa Group deliberately uses associations to attract the attention of the church's top leaders. When the "Death Angels" are transferred, their spies placed within the church will go to the "mine" to destroy the psychic seal, and Barossa This was also indirectly confirmed by the subsequent strategy adopted by the Sa Group to encircle them but not attack them, allowing them to fight with the mutants.

These rational believers urge not to be blinded by blind anger. At this critical moment, they should unite and speak out unanimously, and not engage in meaningless internal strife.

This impassioned speech in the city square received an enthusiastic response from other believers.

They enthusiastically tied the believers who gave speeches to wooden stakes, and then sent them with a fire to atone for their sins to "God the Father".

While Song Lan and Yelu were discussing the matter in their room, the almost fanatical shouts of the believers came from outside the hotel.

Another apostate showed his weakness.

Just as the believers expected, any apostate would have nothing to hide from the Inquisition.

This fanatical sacrificial ceremony forced Song Lan to temporarily interrupt his detective work. He took out a gray cloak from the hotel closet and draped it on himself like an ordinary believer, covering his face.

Later, the three of them followed the end of the parade and arrived at the city square of Antigon.

This square, once used for speeches and sermons, had been transformed into an execution platform by the Inquisition during the war. There were more than a dozen blackened wooden stakes standing on the execution platform, and each wooden stake was tied with a burnt A charred corpse.

Now, the fanatical believers gathered in the central square and witnessed the court setting up a new wooden stake on the execution platform, and then pushing a shackled prisoner onto the execution platform.

The process of execution seems to be the source of strength for the believers.

They have the most loyal and firm beliefs in the world. Even if they are overwhelmed by the mutant army, pierced through the heart by a bone sickle, or have their heads gnawed off by sharp teeth, they will not take a step back, and every time they deal with the apostates The judgment can make the fire in their hearts burn even more intensely.

When the bag covering the apostate's head was removed by the judge, Ye Heron suddenly exclaimed.

"It's Father Delari, he also betrayed the church!"

"Do you know him?"

Song Lan lowered her voice. Asking such a question in a square full of believers would easily arouse the hatred of other believers.

"Father DeLary was the librarian and one of the most learned men in the church!"

In Ye Heron's impression, Father Delali was different from those believers who were afraid of them. He was always amiable and told her many stories about the church.

"Then...who is that bald guy over there?"

Song Lan was naturally referring to the most conspicuous "braised egg" on the execution platform. He was wearing a bright red robe, with a fat head and big ears, and a high-sounding smile on his face.

It is not difficult to see that this "braised egg" is the supervisor of this trial, and all the judges respect him.

"It's not the bald guy, it's Father Egg!"

Ye Lu frowned and corrected Song Lan.

You must know that if this disrespectful name is heard by members of the Tribunal, Song Lan will definitely be sentenced to death.

"After Father Bruno left, Father Egg took over his job and became the chief inquisitor. He is the most powerful person under the archbishop. He has the authority to handle some things that are not available for the archbishop... You will Don’t call him that again.”

"clear."

Song Lan nodded.

He admitted that he had just lied. On the one hand, Father Egger's big, bald head was too conspicuous on the execution platform. On the other hand, from the first moment he saw the other person, he had an unknown feeling. The feeling of disgust comes.

As a salty fish who has a peaceful mind and never makes enemies with others, he rarely feels like this.

"Apostate Delali, now you need to confess the crimes you have committed to the devout believers!"

After everything was ready, Father Egger began this massive trial. He did not need a microphone and let his voice clearly reach the ears of every believer in the square.

A simple sentence aroused the emotions of the believers.

They were so angry that everyone's eyes seemed to be able to spit fire.

The believers couldn't wait to see this sanctimonious traitor burnt to a crisp.

"Stop it, Egg."

Delary, who was tied to a wooden stake, just looked at Iger with calm and compassionate eyes. They had worked together for many years and became a member of the church when it was first founded.

He witnessed the changes in the church, and also witnessed the Inquisition and Egg becoming what they are today.

"Power has blinded you."

"The evil talk deceives the public."

Father Egger sneered, "It seems that you have no reflection on the crimes you have committed. In this case, you can only let the fire of hell burn your body and let your twisted soul go to God the Father to atone for your sins."

With that said, he personally picked up the torch and walked step by step towards the old man who was tied to the stake and awaiting trial.
