Old-time musicians

"The death of a third-level sage is enough to attract the attention of all official organizations. This accident happened in St. Perto outside of Theolaine. It is hard to say whether it is a simple disadvantage or a simple advantage."

"The disadvantage is that we are too far apart, the power of the school is limited, and it will take some time for my father to bring the investigation team back. But the advantage is that the church is also involved. When the Special Patrol Office reaches out, it needs to take more aspects into consideration."

"Although there are many details that need to be concealed in my previous series of responses, I can openly state that I "referenced the revelation of Bishop Lavoisier" to win the trust and support of the church. Everyone knows that the sacrament of confession that was "witnessed by the gospel" and that it is not entirely a bad thing for the Special Patrol Office to reach out in the face of the threat of the "worm"."

"In general, there is a lot of room for "free play" to guide the facts to a certain extent in the direction you want. This depends on what the situation is that will benefit you in the next year."

Roy walked down the stairs step by step, so lightly that there was no sound.

Her spiritual sense sensed the servants busy in the kitchen and restaurant on the first floor. According to her schedule and instructions, no one has come up yet, but the energy of the secret ceremony hastily arranged on the second floor before her promotion at night will also be exhausted. In a short time, the stench will make everyone notice something strange.

After pushing open the bedroom door, Roy directly removed the spiritual wall.

She stared at the swollen and festering corpse and looked at more details.

The most critical question is when did the pollution start.

Did it exist in the northern continent a long time ago, or did it happen during the investigation, such as the air raid incident, or did it happen after Bishop Lavoisier left? Different times will bring completely different investigation directions.

Originally, Roy was inclined to the possibility of a later time, but this time was different from the abruptness and haste before, so she quickly discovered several surprising places!

The clothes of the corpse could no longer see the original color matching, but from the style, it could be vaguely distinguished that it was a tea dress, and Aunt Hermosa, who she saw on weekdays, did not have such clothes at all.

The face of the corpse was highly rotten, and no facial features could be seen. The skull was cracked along the nose, and the black mucus inside was flowing out and solidified like a runny egg. On the side close to the wall, half of the remaining golden mask fell on the bed.

The left hand of the corpse was actually rotten to the point that there was no bone left, like a long strip of red and black toothpaste squeezed on the bed sheet, but at the farthest end, where the palm should be, there was a ring inlaid with black jade.

"Sylvia!?!?"

Roy's inner thoughts were exactly the same as Fanning's reaction in the "cracking field" before.

She had never participated in an underground party, but since the "phantom" incident ended and the situation in Santaramborg became tense, she had handled and circulated a lot of investigation intelligence about "Sylvia", and remembered several main features clearly!

"Bishop Lavoisier anticipated that Aunt Hermosa had problems and might hand over the signpost to the Divine Advent Society, such as Sylvia."

"But why is Sylvia herself?"

After seeing that Sylvia, whose whereabouts had been mysterious and elusive, died in front of him

After learning that this was the Aunt Hermosa who was possessed by the "worm"

Roy felt that the memories and cognition in his mind suddenly "fought".

"This shouldn't be, it's too early. From the traceability information of the school's intelligence network, whether it is the "agent" incident of the Joyful Listening Society, the "illusion" incident of the Reconciliation School, the "caving" incident instigated by the Transcendental Club, or the later Santaranburg subway accident, Sylvia and the underground party have had signs of activity for a long time, at least 5 years ago"

"Even when the school took action many times, Aunt Hermosa was present"

On the one hand, Roy even clearly recalled that the time of Sylvia's activities confirmed by several investigations was obviously "conflicting" with Hermosa, and the two parties could not be the same person at that time point.

But on the other hand, she felt that there was another part of the memory that was obviously contradictory or obviously "reverse" in chronological order, which was "replacing" her own cognition!

——After being contaminated by the "worm", Hermosa became an informant of the God's Descent Society, codenamed Sylvia, recruited various secret organizations to hold underground meetings, and used the information convenience of being in the top of the official organization to make it difficult to find her whereabouts. It was only known afterwards.

"Why is this?"

Roy's face was full of confusion, and his fists were clenched tightly.

"Sometimes, it is difficult to determine whether an arrow killed Queen Louise in the north or Queen Eleanor in the south. Sometimes, an oil painting by Master Ribera Josein may have been stolen during the looting of Tia City and placed in the treasure of a noble family in San Perto."

Mr. Wax's voice still echoed in the pool of the "cracking field".

"Similarly, it is difficult to determine whether the true origin of a Lost God is the original world, and it is also difficult to determine whether the Lord who is now believed by those who know to be the witness of the World God has a past of being 'born from a lost and unknown source'."

"They sang praises to all possible things, and every chosen path is a remembered past. They slandered all impossible things, and every unchosen path is a premature future."

On the last few steps at the bottom, Mr. Wax, who was sitting in a wheelchair, pointed to the floating white paper boats one by one while narrating.

The paper boats carried candles, and the wicks lit up with cold light.

The tiles on the curved walls around began to reflect various scenes.

"But these old wounds of history are difficult to heal, so in the eyes of ordinary creatures, all kinds of confusion are like braids of hair."

Poglelich stared at the flashback of the previous battle and spoke in a low voice.

"Of course, you and I are also ordinary creatures."

"But your understanding of secret history has a more essential and high perspective, which has the potential to become a 'worm scientist'."

"Thank you for your trust in a suspected 'intruder'." Mr. Wax smiled, "In fact, if you hadn't cut off the inexplicable curse-like name connection with a knife, my spirituality would probably still be in complete confusion until now, and even the first door would be out of the question."

Pogleliqi no longer responded. He calmly watched the light and shadow jumping on the wall tiles, watched He Meng in the picture being killed by Sylvia, and watched Gang being killed by another Sylvia not long after.

"You shameful substitute, shut up!"

The newly appeared Sylvia threw out a strange mirror full of worms, and the confusing mortar-like sticky light engulfed the two people, so the "worms" in the previous Sylvia's body completely broke out and died, and two tiny black shadows fell down.

"Sorry, we in the God's Advent Society really do whatever we want."

After the new Sylvia disappeared into the wall, the candles on all the paper boats went out, the flashback image also disappeared, and the tiles showed their original texture.

"Two items?" Poglelich asked first.

Mr. Wax in the wheelchair raised his hand:

"The harmonica is one of them, but the black jade ring is gone."
