Lin Zhi was stunned and stood there for a second before he said,

"Has the wound been treated?"

Wei Lan nodded and said, "It's okay." But he couldn't help but hold his forehead in his hand. He was actually a little angry just now?

This was different from the anger I had in the past. I really felt uncomfortable from the bottom of my heart, as if there was a pent-up energy in my body.

This is just a virtual world in the book, why care so much? Just care about being alive, Wei Lan tapped his forehead.

"It's really okay, just a few scratches from a branch. Let's go out now."

Just as he was about to turn around, Lin suddenly called him.

"Your Highness, I can do this alone. Your Highness should have a good rest."

Wei Lan rolled his eyes, somewhat helpless:

"Do you know where she is?"

"Let's go together."

His expression suddenly dimmed, and he lowered his head and looked back.

"Yes."

What's going on? Wei Lan frowned. Could it be that this guy disliked him for ruining their time together? There was nothing I could do. I had to find Hathaway quickly. The coming-of-age ceremony had to proceed as usual.

And I promised Louis.

As soon as the two men left the palace, they were immediately followed by guards. Although the soldiers along the way were surprised to see an extra person, they did not dare to ask too many questions.

After arriving at Harstad by carriage, Wei Lan went straight to the heroine's house and opened the half-open door.

Lin Qing frowned and glanced around, then said,

"What are you doing here, Your Highness?"

"Looking for your wife." Wei Lan immediately covered her mouth and almost said it out loud. The next second, she said nervously:

"Oh..., I asked the housekeeper before, and he said Hathaway's home is here."

After saying that, she ignored him and pushed the door open and went in. The boy's body was no longer there, and the bed sheets had been changed.

Nothing else moved.

Strange, the bed sheets were changed by the landlord?

Wei Lan looked around carefully and confirmed that he could not find any clues, so he turned around and went out to ask people nearby.

As soon as I went out, I saw the woman from last time coming back from outside with an empty wooden basin. When she saw the empty hand, she pointed at me.

Wei Lan quickly ran forward and booed.

"Hello ma'am, I would like to ask if anyone has come back to this house recently?"

The woman looked at him warily:

"who are you?"

Wei Lan was stunned, and suddenly remembered that he was wearing men's clothes when he came last time, so he pretended to be confused:

"Oh, I'm another servant at Hathaway's workplace. It seems she hasn't been here for a long time?"

The woman's eyebrows relaxed, she raised one hand to cover her mouth and said carefully:

"Oh, I heard that she seems to be dead! Last time, someone who claimed to be his brother came to see him. I guess her brother did something wrong outside!

Oh my - it's so scary, there are soldiers coming up!"

"So you really have never seen her even once?" Wei Lan asked again.

The woman looked him up and down.

"You guys are maids in a noble house, you make a lot of money, right? Last time the landlord was even yelling that Hathaway still owed him three francs."

Wei Lan knew what she meant and without further ado, he immediately took out five and gave them to her.

The woman's eyes were full of smiles, and she was talking to him with her hands covering her mouth when a shadow fell from behind Wei Lan.

"I remember the night before, I was sleeping soundly when I suddenly heard a noise. It turned out to be coming from downstairs, which was the first floor that Hathaway and her friends rented. But when I went downstairs to check, there was no one there. I don't know what happened."

As soon as the woman finished speaking, she walked away.

"That's all I know. Soldiers have come to ask questions from time to time these days."

She said as she looked at a few soldiers who were far away from them, then turned and went upstairs.

Wei Lan was thinking, the day before yesterday? He remembered that Phoenix also said that he saw Hathaway in the church during the day. The key point was where would she go?

"Your Highness, how can you talk to a stranger so casually?" Lin stood behind him and said,

"You used to hate civilians the most."

Ah, Wei Lan came back to his senses after hearing that, and thought why the previous sentence was so similar, adults teach children not to talk to strangers...?

"Didn't you tell me not to discriminate against civilians?" Wei Lan responded casually and walked back.

After getting on the carriage, Wei Lan reported the address of the church. Now the portraits of Lin and Hathaway are hung all over the city.

Wei Lan handed Lin the mask. He had to go to the church later. He thought it would be bad if he was discovered, so he asked him absentmindedly:

"Where would she go, you think?"

The result was a reply like this:

"Hasn't Your Highness always disliked her?"

Damn it! How dare I hate it, Wei Lan thought to himself, damn, this question is very deadly, could it be that the male protagonist is testing him!

"This is a matter of life and death. I have to find her no matter what."

Wei Lan thought about it and gave such an answer, which neither clearly expressed his dislike nor his liking, which was very good.

Lin suddenly started to think.

“The forests surrounding the capital are vast, and if she had been in the capital the day before, she wouldn’t have been able to leave.

We have already arranged for defense at the city gate, and other places must have been checked long ago. Now there is only one place."

"Where?" Wei Lan asked anxiously. Damn, he hadn't thought about it that much.

Lin concentrated his mind and spoke calmly:

"monastery."

Wei Lan's heart was shocked. Yes, why didn't he think of it? Monasteries in this era provide inn services like those in ancient China, where people can stay.

Moreover, monasteries generally do not allow soldiers and the like to set foot in, saying that they are afraid that their blood will contaminate the territory blessed by God.

The church has enough power and influence here, so it is not easy to search the place.

If Hathaway went to the church that day, then she sneaked in and didn't come out, or she stayed there.

Accommodation should be impossible. Count Sepa and his group should have already asked about it.

Wei Lan shouted outside, asking the coachman to speed up.

When they arrived at the church, Wei Lan got off the carriage and was about to rush to the monastery, but he looked at the person behind him and told him to wait outside.

"Why?" Lin asked puzzledly.

How dare you ask that? Have you forgotten what happened to you here? Wei Lan wanted to scold him.

"You just stayed outside. You don't remember anything that happened here?"

Lin was even more confused, "Huh?"

Wei Lan thought that since he had turned into that form, he probably didn't remember it clearly, so she ignored him and went into the monastery, specifically asking someone to bring Gemma over.

"Hi! Princess!"

Gemma almost ran over, with a playful smile on her face, and rushed towards Wei Lan and said:

"Did the princess bring the money?!"

Wei Lan suddenly choked in his throat. Damn it, he had completely forgotten...

I could only take out the bag of money from my bosom and give it all to him. He picked it up and weighed it, and suddenly said with contempt:

"You're such a stingy princess?"

"Stop! I was in a hurry to leave today and forgot to bring money." Wei Lan stopped him.

"Can you ask the management here if anyone has moved in recently? For example, a woman named Hathaway? It's urgent."

Gemma replied,

"Huh? That's weird. Our religious leader asked someone to check as soon as he came back today, but no one was found. Every room was searched."

"No one?" Wei Lan had originally held high hope, so this was strange.

He thought about it and suddenly remembered that they said they had checked every room, so what about the room at the top of the monastery? It was clearly said to be the Pope's room, so why did it have such a layout?
