Journey to the Half-Elf Plane

Chapter 19 Secret Investigation

Chapter 19

The Guardian of the Blue Moon Sect was a little hesitant, but still said: "Someone may be imitating demons or witches. This has not happened before."

The surrounding air suddenly became silent. Pastor Baker turned his gaze and said softly: "Mr. Bruce, are you teaching me how to judge?"

The pastor's tone was unusually gentle, like a conversation between friends.

The middle-aged church guard immediately felt something was wrong and hurriedly said: "Please forgive me, Pastor Baker. What you said is absolutely correct. I will ask for punishment."

Pastor Baker waved his hand, "It seems that you don't understand the methods of evil witches and others. He is good at disguise and will hide among ordinary people, even among clergy."

Looking at the pale-faced church guard, the pastor changed the topic and said: "But the most likely ones are pagans. Those pagans who are rich from outside. How did they get their money? They probably used some evil means. I Is that true?"

The church guards no longer dared to speak randomly. A report came from outside, saying that a traveling Blue Moon believer requested the pastor's help.

The pastor recited a prayer, and then asked the messenger to invite people in.

The person seeking help was a young nobleman in luxurious clothes, with an anxious look on his face, "Only Blue Moon cherishes the world. Hello, Pastor, I need your help."

It turned out that this was a noble heir named Garcia Green who was passing by. However, he was worried because he accidentally lost an important family medal in Fog Castle. He inquired about some situations in Fog Castle, and finally decided to seek help from his own church, Blue Moon. Truth's help.

Pastor Baker, who seemed friendly and kind on the surface, did not lend a helping hand so easily. Finally, after Garcia decided to donate a huge sum of money to the local church, the pastor called a knight of the church and asked him to bring him with him. Some of the sect's guards helped him find the missing family medal.

……

A human woman dressed as a magician left the Church of Wealth, walked to a deserted place on the next street, and suddenly said: "The followers of the Goddess of Wealth began to suspect something, and their pastor also behaved a little abnormally."

In the darkness of the hiding place, a short dwarf figure suddenly walked out. It was Olivia, the director of the Oyue Circus. A cold voice replied: "How to investigate is your business, we will only provide you with some peripheral cover. "

"This is the method of evil witches and the filth of the human world. Don't forget what you promised after receiving money from the Silver Flame Church."

Olivia took a deep look at this woman. Her name was Rui, and she was a priest of the Yinyan Holy See. Priest was an old name reserved by some churches, and her status was equivalent to that of an ordinary priest.The belief in Silver Flame makes this sect incompatible with evil and darkness, and basically every believer has a character that hates evil.

"Then let's start with the local pastor of Fortune Church. He won't be able to notice any of these strange things."

……

"It seems that you passed by the territory of the Black Street Brotherhood and then lost the family crest. Is that what happened?"

As a knight in fine mail asked, the young noble thought about it and confirmed: "Yes, I remember this place. During the day, there were many dirty little brats, begging in groups here."

"I kindly threw some coins away, but when I got back I found that the money bag was missing."

After hearing this, the knight of the rank waved his hand and called a lower-level church guard, saying: "Find their leader, that bastard with a bit of aristocratic blood, Quaid."

After a while, it was not Quaid who came, but his deputy Jamie. He leaned forward and performed the Blue Moon Ceremony, and said: "Blue Moon above, Sir Knight, Quaid went to his uncle's place for a while. Well, you know his uncle is steward to Lord Alderman."

The knight of rank frowned after hearing this, and pointed at the noble young man next to him, "Have you seen this noble gentleman? He lost something to you yesterday, an important family crest."

Jamie hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Noble, but here we are all orphans who make a living by begging. No one dares to steal your things."

The strength of a knight of the rank is equivalent to that of a first-class professional. Before the noble young man could speak, he was already impatient and said: "Don't try to fool the eyes of the clergy. I will give you one day. I will get the results tomorrow morning. "After saying that, he waved his hands and the group turned and left.

Jamie froze on the spot, he was a little afraid that he would not be able to find out the result. The least severe case of the thieving nobles would be whipping, and even more serious cases would be sent to become slave soldiers on the battlefield.

Back in the broken house, Jamie immediately gathered all the nearby beggars and interrogated the clues one by one, but unfortunately there was no result. He could only wait until the evening to report directly to Quaid.

The beggars were a little scared about what happened today, and they all returned to the house to discuss quietly. A beggar in the seventh house said: "Boss Kalei, I found out clearly that a nobleman lost something nearby. I heard that he was What you stole is something very important."

"Nonsense, those guys from Blue Moon are here, is it not important? Quaid will definitely get angry again tonight, and he might even hand one of us over to plead guilty."

"Oh my god, it's not about getting beaten twice, beaten half to death by Quaid, and then beaten one more time by the nobles or the church adults."

Kalei narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, a lowly figure flashed in his mind. He said: "I thought of a way, don't be afraid, none of us will have to be beaten. The thief who dares to steal the noble Lord must be brave. And a low-blooded person.”

A follower suddenly thought, "Boss Kalei, you mean that half-elf? But him, but he wouldn't let it go if he knew."

"Let's give up? Don't worry about him. A lowly half-elf has become a thief of a nobleman. What qualifications does he have to oppose?"

After a while of discussion, several beggars from the seventh room filed out and waited for Quaid's return route. When they saw Quaid carrying a pile of ale, several beggars surrounded him respectfully. .

Quaid, who was in a good mood, rarely hit anyone, but after hearing the story of the beggar led by Carré, he was still furious.

After Quaid slaps a few beggars, he will go back to find a half-elf kid named 'Loki' to settle the score.

But Kare quickly stopped him and said, "Boss Quaid, please don't worry."

"Boss Quaid...you can wait until someone from the church comes tomorrow and then beat him severely. If you beat him to death now and still can't find anything, the nobles and the church adults will think that you just beat him up."

It was the first time that Kalec spoke so many words so fluently. Of course, this was all planned. One of his followers, Tails, came up with the idea. Considering Tails' usually quiet character, she plotted against the half-elf. It’s true that a dog that bites doesn’t bark.

Quaid finally listened to this suggestion. Anyway, there will always be a kid who takes the blame, so what does it matter who it is?

After returning to the broken house, Jamie also told him the whole story. Quaid took a sip of ale and said: "This matter is simple. I already have an idea. Sleep peacefully. Tomorrow we can find the thief and appease the church and nobles." .”
