The villain, the devil, he got the wrong script

Chapter 98 Margaret Rose 22
Yu Zhe lay lazily on the only bed board in the small black room, there is no window in it, and he couldn't see any sunlight coming in.

Although the small black room is fully enclosed, the sound insulation effect is surprisingly poor.

As soon as he woke up, he heard voices from outside.

Listening to the conversation outside, especially what they were talking about, Yu Zhe picked out his ears, looking disgusted as if he heard something disgusting.

Sazier came to interrogate him early in the morning, and through the opening of the door, Yu Zhe saw Margaret being taken away not far away.

However, he didn't care much.

The guard moved Saziye a chair, and she sat opposite Yu Zhe, "Did Mr. Yu sleep well last night?"

"It's not bad, it's the sound insulation effect, it's too bad. I suggest you improve it, otherwise it won't be good if I eavesdrop on any secrets."

Sazier smiled, "Mr. Yu, do you still remember what I told you last night? I believe you haven't forgotten what you said yourself."

"I've said so much, how do I know which sentence you're talking about?"

"Mr. Yu, you should seldom swear to others. Why did you forget it so quickly?"

Yu Zhe pretended to be enlightened, "Oh, you said that, since you said you were going to hang me last night, I took that sentence as a fart."

He looked indifferent.

But Sazye was not angry, and said meaningfully: "Your name is still on the list of those responsible for the arrest."

"Miss Priest, are you kidding me, put the name of one of my suspects in that personnel list? I'm afraid everyone will shout and beat me as soon as I go out."

"Mr. Yu should be able to understand what I mean. What we need is never a person named Yu Zhe, but only you."

Meeting her gaze, Yu Zhe was slightly taken aback, "So, I won't be hanged?"

"Of course, Mr. Udu and I very much welcome you to join us."

"That……"

Yu Zhe wanted to ask some more questions, but Sazye didn't give him the chance. He got up and patted the dust that didn't exist on his body, "Don't go to bed too early at night. If you miss the opportunity, you won't have it."

She turned to leave, and the guard closed the door again.

Yu Zhe regained his expressionless face, and he sat against the wall, tapping lightly with his fingertips on his lap intentionally or unintentionally.

A long time passed, and when he heard the bells from the other side of the square, he suddenly remembered something. The people who took Margaret away had been away for a long time.

If you haven't come back until now, you may not come back again.

He knew that there was a creature hidden in the back mountain of Margaret Town. That creature had no head, but it was not exactly the headless god believed by the believers.

It often appears at night, attacks townspeople, and eats their heads, and sometimes their bodies.

In the past, believers offered a large number of sacrifices to it, so there were very few murders like the previous few days, but...

Margaret's rose business was not as good as before, and the sacrifices offered by believers decreased, so she sneaked into the town to find food.

Believers see these murders as punishment from the gods, so the Saziye priests proposed a high festival, in which they would offer a large number of sacrifices on that day.

Yu Zhe touched his pocket, and then remembered that they had taken away his cigarettes. He raised his head, leaned against the wall, and sighed helplessly.

Sure enough, it's still not very good not to smoke suddenly...

He stayed up bored until night fell.

There was a slight movement outside the small black room.

Yu Zhe slightly opened his eyes, the brown eyes were narrowed into slits, the door was opened, and the moonlight quietly seeped in.

Two men dragged him out, and then threw the other unconscious man into the small dark room.

Under the moonlight, Yu Zhe saw the face of the person who replaced him, and recognized him as the male traveler who had asked him for help in the hotel.

He squinted his eyes, and before he could think about it, the two men forced him into a room, gave him a business card, and left.

"Derwent?" Yu Zhe read out the name on the business card.

The door opened and Udu walked in.

"Mr. De Winter, should you be familiar with your identity by now?"

Seeing him, Yu Zhe smiled, turned the business card over and over, and glanced, "I haven't figured out what I do yet."

"This house is your current and future residence. Mr. De Winter just moved back to Margaret. You lived here for a while when you were a child. Later, you left the town with your family. After many years, your family passed away. You came back here alone, no one knows you, only that you used to be a resident of the town."

"This identity looks pretty good, but are you sure it's safe?"

Youdu smiled, "Of course, no one will object to our approved companions."

"There's one thing I can't figure out."

"You said."

"It was Mr. Pater who first agreed to my becoming a believer. Aren't you afraid that I will be with him and turn against you?" Yu Zhe said.

Youdu still maintained a polite and decent smile, and his expression did not change, "I believe that Mr. De Winter is a man. To you, it doesn't matter who agrees. The most important thing is that you can become a part of us."

"I really thought you were just an innkeeper."

"It's true. I'm just an innkeeper, but it's also my mission to help believers spread our faith." Youdu said to him.

"Anything else to ask?"

"The man who will go to the gallows instead of me..."

Youdu reacted, "Oh, are you talking about that gentleman? It's a pity. If he hadn't seen that scene that day, maybe I could have spared his life."

He smiled a little strangely, Yu Zhe looked at him quietly, "I think you know, he is not the only one who knows about that."

"I appreciate your honesty. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving."

Youdu walked to the door, seemed to think of something, and said: "By the way, someone will come to you tomorrow, and you and them will arrest those foreigners and traitors together."

"The festival is approaching, we have to be more cautious. For our common goal, it is worth paying any price." Speaking of the last sentence, his eyes darkened slightly.

"Well, so I have to work hard to keep up with you, after all, I'm just a newcomer."

Udu looked at him with great admiration, "That's it, Mr. De Winter, I wish you a sweet dream."

In a blink of an eye, Yu Zhe was the only one left in the room.

Yu Zhe lowered his eyes and stared at the business card in his hand. There was a bright red rose printed on the back of it.
