Who hid my body?

Page 43

"There is probably nothing I want to do...

Bai Wei said, "Think about it again."

"Think about it again...Think about it again..." The voice became smaller and smaller, so small that Bai Wei thought the fire had gone out. Suddenly, he became excited, like the last few sparks of a dying bonfire bursting out from the charred charcoal when the breeze blew. "That child...that child...I want to see...that child."

That child...

Bai Wei knew who Ulu was talking about.

He lowered his head and looked at his now broken body.

Ulu's soul is about to burn out. If Bai Wei wants to control this broken body, he needs to use his own soul, which will undoubtedly cause great damage to his soul.

Moreover, going to see the child at this time was too risky and did not fit in with Bai Wei's future plans.

Also, given Uru's current condition, it would be difficult for him to hold on until that time.

and so……

"I want to see... that child..."

Bai Wei was silent for a moment.

"Okay, let's go meet the kid."

Chapter 68 You Can Call Me Visas

For the city of Somme, this night was longer than expected.

In the first half of the night, the rainstorm that had not been seen in several years violently washed over this ancient city, and the whole city was suppressed into silence.

In the second half of the night, the rain suddenly subsided, and the whole city became noisy at this time when it should have been quieter.

After the sudden gathering, countless Rhine Knights rushed to their cathedral with nervous looks; the sheriff who was awakened muttered with sleepy eyes "What are these guys doing?" and then turned over and continued to sleep; a white-haired old man was pulling a cart on the way out of the city, and the white cloth on the cart was conspicuous and eye-catching; the mother in the chapel was crying while holding her child who suddenly got better, and the priest who was constantly thanked smiled and nodded, but a hint of doubt flashed across his face.

All of this flowed in those star-like pupils and finally stopped in the small hotel in the deep alley.

The woman who had just recovered from a serious illness held the girl who had fallen asleep in her arms and gently wiped the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes with her hands.

The woman would raise her head from time to time and look into the depths of the alley, as if waiting for someone to return.

"Do you want to go in and take a look?" Bai Wei asked slowly.

Ulu didn't say anything, as if he had completely disappeared.

But Bai Wei knew that Uru was still there. Although he was also surprised that Uru could hold on until now, the last spark in the depths of his soul was still burning.

It just takes a little patience.

It was unknown how long it took before Ulu responded: "Ah... no need, I've already seen... what I wanted to see."

Bai Wei did not force it.

This broken body had reached its limit. Bai Wei understood that Uru didn't want it to appear in front of that woman and that girl, so just watching it was enough.

Bai Wei also knew what he wanted to see.

right in front of you.

After watching for nearly half an hour, Bai Wei finally heard a sigh from the depths of his soul.

"That's enough. That's enough." Ulu said softly, "I... should go."

Bai Wei didn't say anything, he knew Ulu hadn't finished speaking.

And this time, Uru did not let him wait too long: "I... suddenly remembered that on the first day we came to this city... you took me to the cathedral and told me that the murderer was there... At that time, I thought the murderer was Archpriest Heri, and later, I thought the murderer was Archbishop Cory... But now I think about it, neither of them is true. The murderer you mentioned is not a living person, but the statue..."

Uru paused.

"The murderer is Rhine...right?"

Bai Wei still didn't say anything, but he also agreed with Ulu's statement.

"Ah, I should have thought of it earlier, I should have thought of it earlier..." Uru said softly, his voice was so small that it seemed like it would disappear in the next second, but he still forced himself to muster up the last bit of energy, "Lord Visas... I want to make one last deal with you."

"You have nothing left to trade with me."

Ulu suddenly realized: "Ah, yes..."

He looked a little regretful.

"Yeah, I have nothing left to trade with you."

Bai Wei was silent for a while, then said, "But if it's not a big deal, I can help you with it. If it's too much trouble, I'll refuse."

"Killing Rhine... is that a problem?"

"Not counting."

Wulu smiled. He seemed to have guessed what Bai Wei would say: "In that case... then please help me... kill Rhine."

"it is good."

After getting Bai Wei's promise, the spark deep in his soul burst out with the last ray of light, and then quickly sank.

"I..." Ulu said softly, "I still died in the past."

"No, Uru."

Bai Wei raised his head and looked at the distant sky. A ray of rosy light pierced through the dark clouds.

“It’s not the past, it’s the future.”

Ulu did not respond. The last glimmer of light in the depths of his soul had been completely extinguished.

But if you get closer, you can still feel a hint of warmth from the nothingness, proving that the fire once burned here.

Bai Wei stood there for a while before speaking softly.

"Good night, Uru."

After that, he turned and left.

Kaiya, who was lying on the bed, suddenly raised her head and looked deep into the alley again.

But there was still nothing to be seen there.

"Illusion?"

She murmured softly, and then suddenly felt the back of her hand was wet, so she looked down.

I found Leia crying in her sleep.

……

"Sir Gerard, please explain why you appeared in the West Cathedral last night."

"I was invited by your Bishop Corey."

"And what time did you appear at the church?"

"Eight fifty-seven, three minutes earlier than the agreed time."

"What did you see when you got there?"

Jellal raised his head and looked at a blue crystal behind the interrogation knight. The crystal emitted a faint light, giving people a drowsy feeling.

"The body of your Archbishop Corey. I know what you want to ask, but I am not the murderer. When I got there, your Archbishop was already dead." Gerard said lightly, "Also, the time has come."

The interrogating knight was slightly stunned: "What?"

"According to the Four Religions' Declaration, without solid evidence, you can restrict my freedom for no more than twelve hours." Gerard tapped the ticking mechanical watch on his wrist. "The time is up. I am no longer obligated to cooperate with you."

"Sir Gerard!" The knight slammed the table and stood up. "Do you think this is still a normal situation? Our bishop has been killed!"

"Yes, that's why I'm willing to cooperate with you." Gerard slowly stood up, and then easily broke the handcuffs that bound him, "But now the time has come."

After saying that, Gerard walked out of the interrogation room. His sturdy body and half of his mechanical limbs that were glowing with light made it impossible for the Rhine knights to stop him.

But one knight still stood up and said, "But you have never directly answered the most critical question. Why don't you follow our arrangement and get off the bus halfway?"

Gerard turned his head and glanced at the knight. The extremely oppressive look in his eyes made the knight subconsciously take two steps back.

"I've already answered that question," Gerard said calmly, "Because if I don't get out of the car, the child will die."

With that, Gerard walked to the door of the interrogation room, opened it and wanted to leave.

At this time, he heard what the leading knight said.

"Sir Gerard, I have heard of your name many years ago. It stands to reason that someone like you should not be interrogated by someone of my rank, but I have also heard about the big event that happened back then." The knight stared at Gerard's back, "Have you ever thought that your stubborn character is still harming you?"

Jellal's body paused for a moment, but he finally said nothing and pushed the door open.

The sky in Som City had already brightened. The sunlight streaked on Gerard's face, making him feel a little uncomfortable after spending the whole night in the interrogation room.

The knights in front of him were busy coming and going. The sudden death of the bishop had brought too much trouble and tension to the city.

But all this has nothing to do with Gerald.

He plans to go back.

After taking just two steps, he suddenly stopped and turned back sharply.

Behind him were rows of carriages of the Rhine Knights.

He felt that someone was watching him, right between one of the carriages.

Gerard's vigilance instantly increased because he felt an unprecedented... danger from the carriage.

The gaze lingered on him for less than a second, but it sent a chill down his spine.

The other Rhine Knights did not notice it, as if the gaze was only directed at him.

Gerard narrowed his eyes, then walked towards the carriages. Not long after, he stood in front of a carriage in the corner.

That’s where the sight comes from.

Gerard slowly pulled out the dagger from his waist. This was the territory of Rhine, so he did not carry a chainsword. The only weapon on his body was this dagger.

But it's enough.

Gerard held the dagger in reverse hand, moved closer to the carriage, and then pushed open the door with his other hand.

A strong smell of blood hit his face.

He looked inside the car and his eyes widened.

What kind of person is this?

The whole body was just a pile of rotten meat, piled in the corner of the carriage. At the same time, there was no sense of life in the body, as if even the soul had been burned out.

The only two intact parts of his body were a finger and his half-closed left eye.

This is pollution!

Gerard subconsciously wanted to retreat and then notify the Rhine Knights.

But then he discovered that there was a piece of paper in front of the body with something written on it.

He looked carefully, and then his body stiffened instantly.

There are only two sentences on it.

"Year 236, Eve Star."

"This eye will let you see the truth."

Jellal slowly raised his head and looked into those half-closed, star-like eyes.

After a brief silence, Jellal raised the dagger and pointed it at his left eye.

After a chilling sound.

The eye fully opened in Jellal's bloody eye socket.
