Invincible priest, out of the courtroom

"Sinners? You mean they're all cultists?"

"Not yet."

Rorschach gave a weird answer.

"temporary?"

Officer William asked curiously.

But Luo Xia wasn't very curious, and didn't want to say anything more, so he asked back:

"You should have heard of the zeroth commandment of the clergy, right?"

"I heard that, you mean the 'don't think too much, don't ask too much'?"

"Since you know, why do you ask?"

Officer William was speechless for a moment...

But he didn't give up because of this, but he readily took out two gold coins, placed them in Rorschach's hands, and continued:

"For the sake of gold coins, you must at least tell me what happened here? Who or what killed these sinners? A kind-hearted citizen passing by?"

Luo Xia collected the gold coins and replied seriously:

"No, they committed suicide."

"Huh? Suicide? Are you serious?"

If it weren't for the shocking scene where Rorschach performed the magic spell just now, Officer William would probably arrest him as a charlatan.

Just at this time, a police officer ran over quickly, holding a blood-stained evidence bag in his hand, which contained something like an ID card.

"Sir, confirmed the identity of one of the deceased, a canned food businessman who believed in the sect of 'The Mercy of Thanatus'..."

The policeman finished the first half of his sentence, only then did he notice that there was an outsider beside the officer, and he quickly shut up.

According to the regulations of the police department, such vicious cases must not be disclosed at will.

Officer William obviously remembered this too, so he smiled at Rorschach and said implicitly:

"Then let's do this today first, and we will contact you later if you have any questions."

Rorschach nodded tactfully, turned and left.

He really wasn't curious about this kind of case.

Not long after Luo Xia left, more identity information of the deceased was dug out from the pile of debris.

There are six people who have identified their names, all of them belong to the 'Tanatus' Mercy' sect without exception, and they all have a decent job and a good income.

From the other deceased whose names have not been confirmed for the time being, it can also be roughly inferred from the fragments of their clothes and accessories that they may all have good financial conditions.

This case looked more like a murder case involving kidnapping and extortion.

But then I don't know what happened, everyone died, and they died so miserably.

Officer William couldn't help but think of the judgment of the 'Undertaker Rorschach'.

These people are all sinners and committed suicide...

"It's really outrageous and ridiculous. I shouldn't have said so much to this kind of magic stick. I don't have any basic common sense. I can commit suicide if I break it like this?"

Undertaker: Chapter 34 34. The rain is getting bigger and bigger

After Rorschach left the scene of the crime, he took the tram to go back to the sect for a rest, and then went to another client in the afternoon.

When passing by the newsstand on the street, he didn't forget about Nota, and helped her take two fashion magazines.

Then, he turned his attention to the corner of the booth. It looked messy, with a large pile of colorful brochures piled up randomly, all of which were brochures of various sects, all of which were free and could be taken at will.

This is very common in newsstands and bookstores in the City of Oracles, and is a means of competition for many denominations.

But really few people will pick it up and read it seriously. Most of the time, it is used to pad the table, fold the plane, and wipe the buttocks, so it was once jokingly called "the special free toilet paper of the city of oracles".

Rorschach casually flipped through the pile of brochures, and found him the sect of the 'Tanatus' Mercy', so he picked it up and looked through it.

Judging from the statement in the brochure, the righteous god Thanatus is an ancient, powerful, and decent-style standard righteous god who is in charge of the relevant authority in the fields of [War] and [Courage].

A bit of a benchmark against Beidi Orville?

His image is generally depicted as a tall and mighty warrior with broad arms and round waist, wearing heavy armor and a helmet with horns, holding a heavy shield, spear, two-handed ax and other weapons.

And this "Tanatus' Mercy" sect has a history of more than 500 years. It is powerful, profound, has many believers, and has a high popularity. It has made indelible and outstanding contributions to the city of oracles.

And it was active in the great war 200 years ago, so it attracted a large number of believers, and it is the one with the strongest comprehensive strength among the 37 existing sects related to Thanates.

Now they have been committed to charity, relief, assistance and other social welfare undertakings, leading the city of oracle to a broad future and a better tomorrow.

Of course, the above are all self-proclaimed in the brochure...

But judging from the teachings written by themselves in the manual, it is clearly a classical traditional sect, but the teachings seem to be of a new liberal sect, as if many improvements and deletions have been made to cater to the trend of the times.

In addition to these, there is a 'star' clergyman in his family.

The man's name was Tuojana, who was canonized as a saint by his sect. He called himself 'Saint Tuojana', and made a high-profile announcement that he was about to master the seventh-level divine art. clerics of art.

Self-proclaimed saints like this kind of sect are not uncommon, and each sect has more or less a few of them, which are used as promotional cards.

Luo Xia did not unilaterally believe in a brochure, and then inquired with the owner of the newsstand:

"This 'Tanatus' Mercy' sect seems to be quite powerful?"

Seeing that he bought two magazines, the boss enthusiastically explained:

"That was a long time ago, and they were once brilliant. They ran a lot of orphanages and free schools, and they also organized a lot of charity activities. They were really popular at that time..."

"But then it seemed to be due to poor management, right? The situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. The orphanages and schools were all closed down, and it was very depressing all at once."

"Don't say anything else, you look at the paper and printing of this manual in your hand, and then look at other people's?"

After listening to the boss's suggestion, Luo Xia casually grabbed another brochure and compared them briefly.

Indeed, the handbooks of others feel like exquisite little picture books, and those of the 'Tanatus Mercy' sect are like scraps of paper with a few lines printed on them.

"I see, thank you."

Rorschach nodded at the boss, put the manual back, and was about to leave.

But the boss stopped him from behind.

"Looking at your attire, you are also a priest, right? Which denomination?"

"Avia Sect."

"Oh~ I haven't heard of it, so would you like to put some brochures here? I chatted with you very speculatively, and I can give you a preferential price."

"No thanks!"

Luo Xia rejected the boss's 'kindness' without hesitation, and left without looking back.

The boss looked like he didn't want to give up, and he was still persuading his back:

"Eh?! Don't rush away! If you want to gain a foothold in the city of the oracle, the necessary publicity is indispensable. The competition here is very fierce, let alone small unknown sects like yours, even the famous North Even the Holy See has failed to take root..."

How could even this kind of thing pull the Holy See out of the Northland to flog the corpse?

Luo Xia couldn't help but want to laugh, and quickened his pace a little.

He doesn't have the spare cash to print all this fancy specialty toilet paper.

As for this 'Tanatus' Mercy' sect and the possible murders related to it, he was not curious either.

Because there is little room for curiosity.

The matter is very simple, it is the believers of this sect who are blaspheming the gods they believe in.

That's it.

"The rain is getting heavier..."

Rorschach stretched out his hand, trying to catch the increasingly dense raindrops in the sky, and used the other hand to put on the hood behind the teaching robe.

"The gods are crying, and it rains in this world..."

........................

It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that Officer William reluctantly got off work and returned home exhausted.

Before he could find any clues or clues about the murder in the warehouse, he heard another news from another jurisdiction.

In a certain apartment in the downtown area, seven well-dressed men and women sat around a round dining table. The table was filled with all kinds of exquisite dishes and a bottle of high-end red wine. They also used gold-plated candlesticks and silver tableware. , Bright flowers to be decorated.

The faces of these seven people were filled with happiness and satisfied smiles, holding forks in their hands, talking and laughing happily, no matter how you looked at it, it was a picture of a happy and harmonious scene where the guests and the host enjoyed themselves.

It's just that the silver table knife that was supposed to be used for eating was inserted into everyone's heart...

The blood flowing from the wound had already dyed the plain white tablecloth on the table dark red.

And the faces of those seven people still had that happy and satisfied smile on their faces.

Although Police Officer William was not able to visit the scene in person and witnessed this scene with his own eyes, he felt shuddering just from the text description.

Thankfully this is the case in other jurisdictions...

Officer William didn't want to think about it. Now he just wanted to go home, take a shower, have some tenderness with his wife, and then check to see if his sleeping son was covered with a blanket.

Before opening the door of the house, Officer William sniffed his own body to make sure that it would not bring any strange smell to the house before pushing the door open.

Then, he saw a few dark figures sitting on the sofa in his living room.

And his wife and child were lying on the floor with their eyes closed tightly, life and death uncertain.

"do not move!"

Officer William quickly drew out the matchlock gun on his waist and aimed at one of them.

But the other party was not too afraid of this simple firearm with only one bullet, and asked slowly in that tone without emotional ups and downs:

"Who? Who went to Warehouse 13? Tell me, who is it?"

The Undertaker: Chapter 35 35. Today's magic practice

The next day, Rorschach got up early as usual, then turned on the radio, poked the little milk cat lying sound asleep beside his pillow, and woke it up too.

Then, while he was listening to the news, he was doing squats, while the little milk cat ran back and forth in the room, like a little fur ball rolling all over the floor, and occasionally accidentally tripped himself and rolled out far away.

"Let's start the news bulletin: Some financial analysts said that today's tourism and luxury goods related industries are on the rise, you can pay attention to related funds..."

"Next Monday there will be a third hearing on religious industry tax adjustments..."

"Superstar Donald in the entertainment industry said that although the weather has been unfavorable for the past few days, his record signing will still be held as scheduled and will not disappoint fans' love and expectations."

"The famous singer Dasen revealed to our reporter that his divorce case is about to come to an end, and he will accept an exclusive interview with our station, so stay tuned."

After reading all the news, the host simply read out the last two at a fast speed:

"Recently, there have been many homicides in the city. Citizens are requested to pay attention to safety."

"Several days of rain have caused the water level of the Gola River to rise. Citizens are requested to pay more attention."

After reading the news, Rorschach's simple morning exercises were also over, so he went to the kitchen on the first floor of the dormitory, made two potato soups for himself and Nota, and then warmed up some goat milk for the little milk cat lying on top of his head.

After a while, Nota also walked into the dining room on the first floor. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Rorschach was putting the kitten on his lap, and tied a small triangular napkin around its neck before putting it on the On the side of the milk basin on the ground.

"Woo~ I always feel...it seems to like you more, senior? Because it's a little female cat?"

Nota asked casually.

"How is it possible? Of course it's because I'm humble and easy-going, so I'm popular with small animals."

Rorschach quickly retorted.

Nota smiled, sat across from Rorschach, and asked again:

"Why is it raining harder and harder outside? Senior, are you going out today?"

"Well~ But it's raining too much and there are few orders, just this morning."

"Then let me get a raincoat for Senior."

........................

Luo Xia was not affected by the rainstorm, and successfully completed today's business, and his performance was still excellent, which surprised the guests and gave them a very high evaluation.
