Chapter 15 Help
"I understand, I'm wasting your time, Miss Anna."

Ye He didn't ponder for too long, he wrote down all the information that Bishop Anna said, and then stood up to leave.

Shortly after he left his office and returned to the library to continue reading, Bishop Anna left the church.

Even if it is just a brief appearance sketch, it still has reporting significance. Ye He will stay in Cedarville for a long time. Many such "appearance sketches" gathered together can always give a complete and detailed outline drawing of the firearm. Confirm clearly.

Unless... Ye He uses a different firearm every time.

Today is Wednesday, which is not a day for worship. Unless something happens, believers will not come to the church.

But Ye He, who randomly found a seat in the church to sit down and read the church scriptures, happened to run into a believer who was "in trouble".

"Father, you must help me!"

As soon as this sad-faced man walked into the church, he noticed Ye He wearing a priest's robe.

He walked up to Ye He without thinking, and actually asked Ye He for help.

"Well, don't worry, come and sit here. Are you in any trouble?"

Ye He guided the man gently, like a competent priest, but his eyes kept looking at the man.

From his clothes, Ye He could tell his income and general job.

Unexpectedly, he seemed to have a well-paying job in the entire Cedarville, which could be seen from the watch and gold-threaded belt he wore.

Moreover, his body lacks exercise, his muscles are flabby, and his skin is too fair. He should be less exposed to the bright sunshine in Cedarville. It can be seen that he works indoors and travels by carriage.

Is it...a clerk from the municipal government?Or a wealthy businessman?
The man sat down where Ye He was pointing. He glanced at the statue of the Ying Yue Goddess not far away, with a vague fear in his eyes. Then he turned to look at Ye He and complained to Ye He. Bitter water:

"Father, my wife has been talking a lot lately. She doesn't sleep at night. She is always thinking that someone is talking to her, saying that she is "summoning" her. I suspect that she is haunted by the devil! At home, The child is also very scared, you must help me!"

Well, that's what he said, but Ye He, who had been observing him, saw more "things".

When he said "wife", he looked a little flustered, and the word "child" also felt like he just remembered and quickly added it.

If Ye He was still a mercenary in his previous life, he would not even bother to reward a bullet for such a person who told lies, and would simply ignore him.

But now he is a priest.

"Okay," Ye He immediately closed the book and stood up. He smiled at the man and said, "Let's go to your house and see your wife."

Since it mentioned "not sleeping at night", it is not [Sweet Home], otherwise he would not have the opportunity to come to the church for help.

Let's go and see, no matter what the purpose is, Ye He decided to give face to anyone who dared to go to the goddess's territory and "abduct" the church.

The vigorous and resolute style of this oriental-faced priest made the man stunned for a moment. Normally in this situation, wouldn't other priests just comfort him with a few words and then ask him to bring his wife over for worship?

However, Ye He's vigorous and resolute actions are exactly what he wants. It is always good to save his wife from the "devil" as soon as possible.

So he immediately showed a surprised and excited expression, stood up immediately, and prepared to take Ye He out of the church to see his "wife".

"Father?"

Sister Diana, who was passing by the church gate, happened to meet these two people.

"Oh, please help me return this. I will accompany this believer out for a while."

As he spoke, Ye He handed the scripture in his hand to Sister Diana, then gestured to the man next to him and continued walking out.

Sister Diana was stunned for a moment. She held the tome that Ye He handed her and watched Ye He and the man leave.

But when she regained consciousness, she couldn't help but muttered:
"Strange... who is that gentleman... Why don't I seem to have seen him before?"

There was always a free carriage at the door of the church. The two of them got on the carriage one by one. After the man reported his address to the carriage driver, he sat side by side with Ye He in the carriage.

Ye He felt a little bit of the man's restlessness. The man seemed to have forgotten that at this time, he should express his gratitude to Ye He with a grateful look.

Forget it, since my [Moonlight Vision] didn't see the power of monsters in this man, then he might just be an unlucky guy who was coerced. It doesn't matter if his acting skills are a little inferior, because I don't care about him anyway.

However, the carriage left the DC area and went all the way to a residential area in the XC area. This destination made the smile on Ye He's face brighter and brighter.

Here in XC District, didn’t Bishop Anna say that this is the “place” of [Fire Sun Church]?

The people who live here go to the [Moonlight] Church for help, even if they are not near or far away?

Although it can be explained that this man is a believer of [Yingyue Goddess], [Yingyue Goddess] and [Fire Sun God] are both righteous gods recognized by the empire. When something happens in the family and the situation is urgent, in the eyes of believers, where There is such a big difference.

"This is it, Father."

After getting off the carriage, the man took the initiative to pay the fare, then pointed to the house in front of him and said to Ye He.

The way he looked at his "home" showed some fear, as if he was afraid of something in the house.

It didn't look like he was caring about his wife. Ye He gave him a deep look, but he still resisted exposing him. He stretched out his hand and gestured for him to lead the way and invite him in.

The man then took out the key and opened the door. The door was open, and the house was dark. The residents inside didn't seem to like the sunny day in Cedarville very much, so they closed all the curtains.

After opening the door, the man subconsciously took a step back, as if he was on guard for something, and then he realized that this was his "home".

He turned around and made an invitation gesture to Ye He. He forced out a smile and said to Ye He, "Oh, I'm so sorry. Father, please come in."

"Okay," Ye He walked towards the door calmly, but before he came to the man's side and was about to step into the door, he suddenly stopped.

The man, who was sweating profusely, immediately became even more panicked when he saw Ye He turning his head towards him with a deep look.

Unexpectedly, Ye He suddenly smiled and asked the man, "By the way, I don't know your name yet."

"Uh... I'm sorry, Father, I'm Gatsby, Derek Gatsby."

"Okay, Mr. Derek, don't be afraid, your "wife" will be fine."

Ye He pronounced the word "wife" emphatically, which frightened the man to the point of being at a loss, and then he stepped into the room.

Thick curtains covered the windows in this "home", but there was still a little bit of light coming through, allowing ordinary people to vaguely see the scene in the room.

Ye He has [Moonlight Vision] and can already see at night, so this little darkness is not harmful to him at all.

"Snapped!!!"

After Ye He continued a few steps deeper into the house, the door behind him was slammed shut as expected. "Click!"

Derek even inserted the key and locked it, as if he was afraid that Ye He would escape from the house.

Ye He didn't even look back at the door. After hearing the sound of the door being locked, he raised the corners of his mouth and shook his head slightly.

Then he carefully looked at the house he was in. He just took a casual look and didn't notice too many details. Now Ye He had time to look carefully.

The furniture and tableware all showed signs of use, but there was a layer of dust on these items that was visible to the naked eye, and it looked like they hadn't been used for a while.

Needless to say, this is really Derek's "home" because Ye He saw a photo on the cabinet next to the fireplace. In the photo, Derek was holding a young woman in his arms and smiling silly.

"so……"

Ye He was not as stupid as Derek. He did not explore room by room. Instead, he directly raised his head and looked at the "shadow" above his head, covering the entire living room, and smiled:
"Mrs. Gatsby, do you look well?"

"Gala la la!"

A sound of twisting wooden boards came from the "shadow" on the ceiling. Then, with Ye He as the center, this "shadow" suddenly "falled" and hovered in front of Ye He's eyes!
A calm-looking woman's face emerged from the shadows, right in front of Ye He. The bridge of their noses were less than ten centimeters apart.

"You...have no...fear...why?"

The "woman" actually spoke.

Ye He glanced at the group photo on the cabinet for confirmation, confirming that the "woman" was the same as the one in the group photo. She was Derek's "wife". He called her "Mrs. Gatsby", so he shouldn't have called her the wrong person. Then he said to "her" in a condescending voice:

"God says that fear comes from the unknown. I know you are Mrs. Gatsby, why should I be afraid of you?"

As if she didn't expect Ye He to say such words, "she" retracted a little towards the ceiling, and then, hundreds of burr insect legs that looked like giant spider legs fell from the ceiling.

"Then... how about this?"

"She" opened her eyes. The densely packed irregular compound eyes completely occupied the eyeballs under "her" eyelids. A wave of hatred, jealousy, and disgusting emotions were completely released from these compound eyes and fell directly on Ye He. .

Coupled with the densely packed giant spider legs around him, it was as if Ye He had become the meal of this giant spider. Anyone else here would have been frightened crazy or fainted.

But Ye He didn't even open his eyes wider, he still didn't have the slightest fear.

The [Jealous Spirit] is only a level [-] monster, and it is also an incorporeal spirit monster. Even if Ye He lives in the room for ten days and a half, as long as he is not afraid or jealous, this thing will not be able to survive at all. Can't hurt him.

Oh, by the way, Cathy just said this morning that it seems that the monster in Krent’s body is the [Jealous Spirit that forms a nest], right?

There is only one reason why Ye He has not taken action to deal with this monster until now, and that is that Ye He is very interested in this "Jealous Spirit" who is obviously Derek's normal wife and has transformed into it.

Can ordinary people transform into monsters?Or is it that this "Mrs. Gatsby" met the [Degenerate] as Bishop Anna said, and what was done to her?
"Mrs. Gatsby, when did you become like this? Do you still remember it?"

Not only did Ye He not show any fear, he sat down directly on the sofa regardless of the dust, acting as if he was really just a priest who came to a believer's home for a "home visit" to greet him.

Seeing this, this [Jealous Spirit] could do nothing to Ye He. After a period of silent silence, she slowly shrank all the spider legs and her own head back to the "shadow" on the ceiling. middle.

"Madam...do you want to become a human again?"

Ye He's words completely stunned the "Mrs. Gatsby". She stretched out her head again. This time, her head dragged its neck like a centipede's trunk directly to the seated Ye He. , asked in surprise:
"You... have a solution?"

"Haha, madam, as you can see, I am a priest and a messenger of God. God is omnipotent."

Ye He opened his hands and showed off the priest's robe.

"God...Father? I...can't see, I can't see anything, I can only "smell"...Are you...Priest? Help me! Help me!"

"Mrs. Gatsby's" language skills have become much smoother, and there is finally a hint of human pain in her voice.

Ye He raised the corners of his lips, "I will do my best to help you, madam.

Now, tell me, when did you find yourself like this? "

"...I can't remember clearly. It seems...as soon as I wake up...I can't see anything. I just want to eat. I'm hungry..."

"Okay, then...have you come into contact with any special people before this morning? Do you still remember what you did the day before this morning, including day and night?"

Ye He was not anxious at all, he just asked in a persuasive manner.

"...The day before... I got up... made breakfast... bought groceries... and bought... a very beautiful rose... very fragrant... lunch... cleaning... dinner... with my dear... …”

After a few minutes.

Ye He unlocked the door with a key and walked out naturally. He immediately saw Derek squatting not far from the door.

Derek also looked at Ye He who seemed to be intact in shock, until Ye He approached him, smiled and handed a bunch of keys belonging to his wife into his hand, and he still couldn't come back to his senses.

"Father...I...she..."

Seeing that the man no longer had the ability to speak, Ye He calmly comforted him: "Don't worry, don't worry, Mr. Derek, I have already seen your wife's situation, and for now, the problem is not big. "

The problem...isn't that big?
Derek immediately jumped up excitedly.

Not big yet?
She has turned into that kind of monster!
Not big yet? ! ! !
