Chapter 50 Famous
Sasha is a city of culture.

The cultural city means that there are not too many factories here, and the low-end handicraft industry is relatively developed.

People here adopt a slow pace of life.

Bookstores and piano shops are the most numerous in the city, while watch shops and tailor shops are the skeleton of the entire city. Everything feels casual and elegant.

But in recent months, some things have happened very unpleasantly, making the townspeople look bad.

First, the level of law and order in urban areas has declined, and violent crimes have surged. The number of incidents is three times that of the same quarter of previous years, and the severity is far beyond previous years.

Casualties approach triple digits.

Some of the victims died on the spot, while others who survived claimed to have seen monsters.

The sheriff had more to say.

These fellows elected by the citizens or self-recommended have all the excuses.

A number of sheriffs in charge of serious injury cases have resigned, while keeping their case under wraps.Some privately spread rumors of monsters entering the city, while others said nothing happened.

Professional sheriffs who receive full salaries publicly stated that it was a public security problem caused by rabies and other similar diseases, and that they could not solve the prisoner through pure violence. In order to avoid the spread of the disease and hurt the emotions of the parties, they also refused to arrest The prisoners who arrived were not announced to the public, but were sent to a special hospital for treatment, and were treated by the medical department of Sien University.

The actions of the Sheriff's Department, already controversial in dioceses because of the uneven level of policing, are now convinced by many that the Sheriff's Department cannot protect the public.

The sheriff's credibility has been irreparably diminished.

Although the second matter is relatively small, its spiritual influence in Sasha City is very large.

A revered missionary attacking a fellow Salvation Army officer whom he knew well is incomprehensible both in worldly sense and in personal terms.

The well-known local "Tea Room News" wrote: "When they communicated closely, Mr. Charles did not expect that his old friend for many years would attack him. Only five bullets were found in his gun, but Anthony claimed that the lack of reloading was due to personal habit. It is difficult to imagine a clergyman who is deeply educated to commit such a villainous act, and now the parish council and the court-martial are Fighting for the right to try the priest Antony, whose outcome is not yet known."

In the current world where people's hearts are not ancient, it is not uncommon for clergy to drink and indulge in the same way as ordinary people, but it is still unprecedented to commit murder in public.

For a while, people in Sasha City panicked.

The public can't help but start to worry that their personal safety can no longer be guaranteed by the Public Security Bureau. Could it be that their spiritual pure land will also be lost?
The third thing is a little weirder.

In a new and not well-known newspaper, a large-page content purchased and placed by a private person was published.

The strange photo was quoted above, the content is that a mysterious man wearing a wolf hood dragged a man who covered his mouth and nose and only showed the upper half of his face, but he could still see that he was very reluctant to show his face, and made him face the camera. The background seemed to be Inside, behind them is a wall with a painted tree symbol and nothing else.

The title is "Here".

Thanks to this space, the newspaper has never sold more than it has ever done.

Some people think that this is a crime notice, or a secret advertisement for recruiting personnel from an underground gang, while colleagues in the newspaper office think that this is completely self-directed and self-acted, a despicable act that is forged and exaggerated for the sake of attracting people's attention.

Some people began to spontaneously search for the places and people in the newspaper, trying to find the truth behind the photos.

However, because the photos are only in black and white, this makes their search much more difficult.

And some have already found it.
Diocese of Saint-Solot, Workhouse, Director's Office.

Father Petit was reading the folk tabloid. He looked young and handsome, but he was actually middle-aged.

He raised the newspaper to the position of a normal person's head, and folded it again. The man's face covering the lower half of his face was completely coincident with that of Joe Mani next to him.

He moved away and back again, convinced that the man in the newspaper had the same face as Joe Marney.

"Up here, is that you?"

Joe Marney, wearing an apron and holding a spoon, said very sincerely, "I don't think that's me."

"I think it's you."

The priest looked directly at him, wishing he would admit it quickly.

Joe shook his head firmly: "Impossible, I have been staying in the workhouse, and only occasionally go to the workhouse to cook."

"So where were you the night before?"

"I help in the workhouse."

"Ha, help." Peti nodded slightly, showing no signs of anger, just took out the second newspaper.

"Tea Room News".

"This Second Lieutenant Charles of the Salvation Army just died in the workhouse the night before yesterday. Did you see him at that time?"

"I could have been in the toilet" Joe rolled his eyes to the ground, trying to get away with it.

There is a private agreement between him and Father Petit, although it is not as formal as it is on paper, but he thinks it is better to abide by it.After working so hard to memorize the holy scriptures for so long, if he fails to be baptized in the end, he can only become a hungry theologian.

It is almost as dispensable a career as a viola player.

"That's a coincidence. Charles was looking for a young man like you, and he also mobilized the nurses in the hospital to look for it. Guess whether Charles took his people to search the toilet." The priest threw the newspaper on the ground. On the table, looking unhappy.

Now that I can't hide it anymore, Joe can only raise his hands: "I'm recruiting, well, I went out to play with my friends, and it's okay to be bored here. I haven't told anyone anything about this place."

"You guys are really good at playing. It's not an easy thing to take a photo and become famous in the whole city." Pei Ti turned his back and turned his back at the same time.His golden hair shone as brightly as his holy face.

"If I remember correctly, you've only been here a few days, has it been a week?"

As a priest who educates the people all the year round, he hopes that Joe has some dignity and self-knowledge.Don't think that someone else begged him to work in an art house.

Joe held the soup spoon horizontally in both hands, facing the back of the priest's head with an urge to try:

"It's not too short. Every louse here is familiar with me."

The quality of the church's "asylum" did not satisfy him, and Joe hoped to attack quickly to eliminate the Holy Grail Society, so he was in a hurry to go out to work.

Although the volunteers take care of food and housing, they have no money.

Only doing volunteer work, he will never get married in his life.

"Is it the girl I introduced that dissatisfied you?" Petit thought that Joe's attitude should be respectful, after all, he really found two girls for Joe, and both of them were considered beauties.

This is not vulgar behavior. A considerable number of believers rely on church priests to introduce marriage partners.

It is common knowledge that people of the same faith marry better lives.

Joe just laughed at the priest's hard work: "The first girl, I heard that I used to be in the cavalry company, and she insisted on exchanging fighting skills and sword skills with me, and dragged me out for a good fight."

As soon as this girl was mentioned, Joe's breathing became a little disordered, and he put his hands on his hips.

When he mentioned his resume at that time, he just wanted to show his most heroic side in front of the girl. Who would have thought that someone would really try his level.

"The worst thing is, after she beat me, she said it's okay, so who can't?"

Joe was angry not because of the beating, but because the contest was pointless.

The priest is used to such situations. The girl is a regular customer of his place, and every time he introduces a man to her, such and such things will happen, eventually leading to failure.

However, both financial resources and appearance are considered superior.

Peti thinks that if Joe can be with her, it will definitely be regarded as a high climber: "I think she has already lowered the marriage requirements as appropriate. As a gentleman, you should accommodate her a little more, and she said you can do it."

"I bet she tells every man you can do it, so that she can quickly enter the follow-up negotiation." Qiao said indignantly: "Because there is no one who can accept her conditions! Usually don't work, but take good care of her mentally disturbed mother , Get up early before going to work to cook for her during the day, clean the house and wash dishes at home after she goes to work, and support her career as a sheriff after work at night, and wait for her to go home in the middle of the night."

Petty feels that the above content is actually no different from what Joe Marney is doing.

"What's wrong with that?"

"What else could be wrong?!" Qiao waved the spoon, angrily: "I want to marry a wife, not to be someone else's wife!"

Pei Ti coughed twice: "What about the second girl?"

He remembered that the girl came from another parish. She was young and beautiful, and had a lot of dowry, but because of her high education, she was not welcomed by the gentlemen.

In the conservative city of Sasha, men don't like girls who are smarter than them.

"The second one is the assistant of my acquaintance. The next sentence of 'nice to see you again' is to ask me where I work and how much I earn every month."

Qiao turned her head and sneered: "I said, I haven't worked yet, and she felt sorry for me. And she is just like the first one, she is a workaholic. She also told me that she went to college, so it's a pity not to come out to work .”

"I don't think there's really anything to fault her for except that she's a little concerned about the financial situation."

"Of course, of course she's a perfect girl, and I'm not worthy! So I ask her to go!"

The more Joe talked, the more angry he became. If it hadn't been for Peti's failure to drive the Holy Grail Society away, he could have found a good job in Sasha City and started working.

Only with savings can we have the confidence to live.

He is proficient in three foreign languages, and he is very handy in translation work in publishing houses and publishing houses.

"You're not ready for marriage, but it's your own idea to let us ask the girl to meet."

"I know—but can you deal with the Holy Grail Society a little faster?" Joe's tone was infinitely sad.

"We just found some interesting clues, maybe we can catch the tail of the Holy Grail comer." Petty said, the topic suddenly changed to serious.
