Chapter 195 A Little Light in the Darkness
The two uninvited guests who sneaked into the office of the cattle factory kept rummaging through the piles of ledgers on the desk and old papers in the filing cabinets.

"Hey!" Kuroda put back a copy of "Scientific Raising Cows" and looked at his watch anxiously, "It's time for us to leave!"

"No hurries."

Fuyuki chanted.

"These, and these, are just ordinary bills..." he gritted his teeth, "but there must be something. What am I missing?"

……

Not far away.

"Yes, High Priest." Mitarai bowed respectfully to the priestess, and then left.

"That child..." the priestess whispered with a voice like a silver bell, and Mitarai looked at least over 40 years old, but the tone of the priestess' address to Mitarai was like his elders, "... I don't know how to lie .”

"I can see it," Chen Qiang said, and after giving everyone a little more time, Mitarai might have revealed more than just his personal information. "At first, I wanted to keep silent, but once I started talking, I couldn't stop."

The contradiction in Mitarai's words makes people have terrible associations, but Chen Qiang instinctively feels that he is not as bad as he imagined.

A big hit dice roll told him he was right.

"What happened that year?" Cecilu asked anxiously and angrily, having been unable to interrupt.

Cecilu knew that "Green Delta" had always cooperated with moderate ghouls, and there were also moderate ghoul members in "Green Delta".But as a combatant, she saw more ghouls, but completely lost her mind and became a walking corpse attacking humans.

"This is not what we should ask." Mrs. Megan from N Network warned.

She who controls the intelligence network knows more secrets than Cecilu.Those evil ghouls who fight against the major organizations are not all mindless monsters.

Just as the moderate ghouls gather under Mordiggian's command, so the wisest of the evil ghouls form their organization.

In their eyes, human beings are no different from food and livestock.The vile and inferior races should be enslaved by the great skeleton eaters.

But Mordiggian ignored them.

According to legend, in ancient times, the great outer god Nyarlathotep bestowed immortal divinity on Mordiggian.From then on, Mordiggian lived in the coffin of the Dreamland as Naia's "Servant God".

However, this big ghoul... would actually sympathize with those weak humans.

Depose weak Mordiggian.

On the throne of the skeleton-eating clan, support a new king who is willing to rule the world.

This is the ultimate goal of those crazy ghouls.

"You don't have to worry," the priestess said softly, "Our alliance will not be affected by your small problem. In other words, it's okay to tell you. Come on, let's talk as we walk."

……

[Kuroda listening test 9/25 success]

"Fuyuki-kun!" Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Kuroda was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, "Someone is coming!"

"I know...damn—"

[Fuyuki detection check 1/25 big success]

Rummaging in the desk drawer, he accidentally touched a small button.

"This is..." Kuroda was dumbfounded.

The trap door opened, and a dark secret passage appeared in front of the two of them.

"Ha! I knew what was here!" Fuyuki showed an expression of surprise.

"They are coming!" Kuroda didn't know what to do.

"Let's go in," Fuyuki said decisively, "They shouldn't have thought that we would hide inside."

……

On the cinder road outside the door.

"That's it." Chen Qiang said softly.

"Mitarai didn't kill his senior, or offend the corpse," the priestess said calmly, "He carried his senior on his back and trekked for thousands of meters in exhaustion. They fell off the cliff , but until the end... Mitarai didn't let go of his companion."

Lawyer Robin shook his head.

"It turned out to be this kind of person." He said, not knowing whether he was expressing surprise or disappointment.

The priestess gave him a complicated look.

She continued her narration: "When several members of our skeleton-eaters found them at the foot of the hillside, both of them lost a lot of blood and were unconscious. In order to rescue them, our people had to go to the hospital without testing equipment. Now, blood transfusions were given to both of them at the same time."

"But, if so..." Qin Lingxue realized what happened next.

"Is it the wrong blood type, or was the injury too severe... Mitarai's senior couldn't make it through in the end," the priestess said in an unchanging tone. The skeletal place, restrained the corpse. After Mitarai recovered in the camp, there have been signs of transformation into the skeletal eaters."

"This must be a very cruel thing for Mitarai." Helena said, her eyes drifting away to the rusty mining equipment in the distance.

"Mitarai couldn't accept the fact that he survived, but his friend died, and he became a non-human creature. It took him a long time to calm down and willingly become a member of the factory."

The crowd listened silently.

"Since then, Mitarai has asked again and again, hoping to take his friend's body out for burial."

"The law of our family is absolute. The corpses collected by the 'Skeleton House' will belong to Mordiggian forever."

"But Mitarai pleaded year after year. Finally, the benevolent Mordiggian finally granted his request. He bestowed favor on Mitarai, allowing him to take the lifeless body out of the mortuary and put it back The place where he died. Later, under our arrangement, the human search party found the body."

"Mitarai still feels guilty that he is the one who survived. Every year, he goes to his friend's grave and places a small white flower there. Well, I also accompanied him there once."

The priestess said no more.The scene was shrouded in a quiet atmosphere, only Keshira who didn't quite understand what happened looked at the silence around her with puzzled eyes.

[Chen Qiang succeeded in the psychology test 46/90]

[Helena's Psychology Test 72/98 succeeded]

[Robin Selman failed the psychology test 93/85]

Chen Qiang and Helena didn't say anything more, they both realized that what the priestess in front of them said was the truth.The corners of Lawyer Robin's mouth curled up slightly. He didn't care about the truth of the matter, but to him, any act of "telling a tragic story to win sympathy" was not worthy of trust.

"We're here...Huh?"

The priestess who opened the door noticed that someone seemed to have opened the secret door in the office.
