God knows everything.

Although the evil god has lived under the abyss for a long time and actively blocked all sources of information from the outside world, as long as he wants to, it is very simple to understand the truth of the matter from the law.

"It turned out to be like this..." Shenming opened his eyes and raised his lips playfully.

He was very curious about how Lin Xiaodong would deal with this matter.

In front of the Raphael Church, after Lin Xiaodong questioned a circle of civilians, he roughly figured out the process of the case in his mind.

It was a personal maid who was very important to the Countess who found something wrong at first.

She never came back when she got up at night. When she woke up the next day, she was found lying dead in the corridor in front of the earl's bedroom door, stabbed several times in her body.

But the weird thing is that she looks like she committed suicide, with fear and anger all over her face.

This incident made everyone in the manor panic, but the earl issued a death order, and no one was allowed to spread it. Once the source was found, his legs would be broken.Although Earl Lyle has only moved to the West District for three years, the commoners have lived in this manor for generations. Once they are driven out, they will become low-level slaves without status and will be bought and sold at will. , this matter was suppressed.

"Knives in the body, or suicide?" Lin Xiaodong shook his head, "Impossible, the pain alone will make her pass out."

But it seemed that these civilians sincerely believed that the maid was "possessed" by a demon, so he skipped this paragraph for now and continued to think about other details.

There is also what Michael once said, the strange noises that often appear in the manor.Even the neighbors heard it, and of course everyone in the manor knew about it, but Earl Lyle has always said that he is a cockfighting enthusiast, and he would go to watch a cockfighting match to add to the fun when he couldn't sleep at night.

It's just strange that no one has ever seen any fighting cocks in the mansion.

"Since it's a cockfight, someone must be in charge of buying it," Lin Xiaodong asked, frowning. "It's impossible for Earl Lyle, a nobleman, to go to the market to select chicken breeds in person, right? Do you know this person?"

The civilians looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Then who is in charge of managing the manor's finances?" Lin Xiaodong asked again.

"It's madam," the little girl he questioned just now boldly replied, "and madam's maid."

Lin Xiaodong clicked his tongue.

If the key witnesses are all dead, then this will be troublesome.

According to the little girl, she was thirsty late last night, and she fetched water from the well in the manor, but what she salvaged was a bucket of bloody water that stinks.She was so frightened that she dropped the bucket on the spot and ran to the Earl's Mansion. She wanted to report to the Earl, but saw the fire blazing, the gate of the Earl's Mansion was closed tightly, and she heard a burst of piercing, It sounded like someone was scratching at the door with their fingernails.

The girl wanted to help, but there was no way to open the door from the outside without the key.Seeing that the doors and windows were also tightly closed, she picked up a stone and smashed the glass. As a result, a fiend jumped out, grabbed her by the neck, and threw her to the ground.But soon, there was a burst of crazy laughter from the earl's mansion. The demon was so frightened that he paused, let go of her quickly, and ran away stumbling.

As she spoke, she also showed Lin Xiaodong the marks of burns on her neck.

"Blessed by the God of Light," the girl clasped her hands together and said reverently, "Otherwise I would definitely not have survived."

Lin Xiaodong comforted her, then turned to the black-haired man who had been listening attentively, "Captain Ike, what do you think?"

"Homicide." Ike spit out two words.

"I think so too." Lin Xiaodong said with a smile.

Although there are still some doubts that cannot be explained, such as the blood in the well, and why the Earl's Mansion is on fire-even in the middle of the night, the civilians living in the manor will not fail to find out, right?But according to the girl, she was the only civilian present at the time when the fire engulfed the entire Earl's Mansion.

So, someone must be lying.

Lin Xiaodong raised his head and glanced calmly at the sallow-faced and emaciated people in front of him. The people he saw, both men and women, lowered their heads subconsciously to avoid his sight.

In Ike's view, this is a very normal thing. The lives of civilians are despicable. If you can't learn to protect yourself by avoiding disadvantages, you will definitely not live to be an adult.

But Lin Xiaodong saw something wrong from the shrinking expressions of these people. He didn't force them, but said to Ike: "I want to go to the Earl's Mansion and see the scene for myself."

"What!?" Captain Ike exclaimed, subconsciously shook his head and refused, "No! So many people died in the manor, even if it was homicide before, it must be polluted by bloody and filthy air now, maybe it will happen again There are evil spirits and ghosts roaming the scorched earth, you are a noble Son, how can you go to that kind of place?"

"Then head, you can go with me," the blond young man smiled, "As for the filth and evil spirits..."

He blinked playfully: "Don't worry, I have God's blessing, and all evil will not come near."

Ike looked at the blond young man, two blushes silently floated on his sun-tanned cheeks.

And when the evil god on the throne of the abyss saw the young man's expression, he instantly clenched the bone armrest in his hand.

What an unruly believer, the god thought impassively.

He took a deep breath, summoned a mass of black slime that seemed to be alive and kept tumbling and surging in the darkness, and after whispering a few words, he waved his hand and threw it into the world.

Lin Xiaodong didn't know that a certain jealous god was going to start making trouble for him. Under his insistence, Ike reluctantly agreed to the request to go to the field to investigate.

But the man still insists on two points: first, you must go there when the sun is at its peak, that is, from eleven o'clock in the morning to two o'clock in the afternoon, and you must leave after two o'clock; tight yourself.

"No problem!" Lin Xiaodong agreed straight away.

He was still thinking about it, but he didn't expect that the crossbow/arrow hidden under the pillow would be useful so soon.

As for Bishop Raphael, Lin Xiaodong just sent a servant to say hello, and sure enough, the other party did not raise any objections, but just came over to say a few words about safety and hard work of the Holy Son.However, the church has a strict hierarchy. Even if he objects, a mere bishop cannot have any influence on the Holy Son.

Lin Xiaodong originally planned to set off the next day, but he didn't expect to have a full day's stomach, and that night he started making trouble again.

"vomit--"

He vomited in the dark while holding the wooden barrel, even if he switched to the degenerate mode, it didn't work at all.Lin Xiaodong felt that he was about to vomit out his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys, he lowered his head and stared fiercely at his stomach, wishing he could punch it on the spot.

"Who is your temper following?" He asked weakly.

The evil spirit in his body seemed to understand the youth's question, and gradually calmed down, no longer violently resisting.

Lin Xiaodong leaned against the head of the bed, stroking his stomach, always wondering if it was bigger than before.Although I know it's only a day away, so it's impossible so soon... But this is a child of God, who can say for sure?

And besides his stomach, he even felt a little uncomfortable in his chest, a little swollen, but he suspected it was just his own illusion.Lin Xiaodong thought frantically, would he really want to experience all of these... these processes, right?

Seeing the blond young man biting his lower lip, curled up under the blanket covering his stomach with complicated eyes, the evil god had no choice but to clenched his fist tightly and pressed it against his lips to prevent himself from using his blood again because he was too excited—— Last night, because he was tossing too much, he had to feed Lin Xiaodong several mouthfuls of divine blood to slow him down.

In other words, although the so-called "Holy Spirit" is fake, Lin Xiaodong's blood is indeed flowing in his body now.

His disciples, his half.

His one and only...Little Lamb.

Because of the ups and downs of the previous night, when I woke up the next day, seeing Lin Xiaodong's face, Ike decisively canceled today's travel plan.

"It's not too late to go after you've recovered." Seeing the sullen look of the blond young man, the black-haired tough guy scratched his hair and comforted him awkwardly, "But...Your Highness, may I ask why you are in such a hurry How about going to Lyle Manor?"

"Why?" Lin Xiaodong was very surprised at his question, "Of course it was because he was going to investigate the case. You also said that it was very likely to be a homicide. What if the murderer is still alive and still lurking in the capital and continuing to commit crimes? "

"However, generally no one would care about this kind of thing." Ike struggled, "Although Earl Lyle is a great nobleman, since he moved to the West District on his own initiative three years ago, the nobles in the capital have disdain to deal with him any more. For the company. I thought you would be like them."

Probably touched by what happened in front of the church yesterday, the always cautious knight commander still had the courage to say something that he would never dare to say in a low voice after struggling all night, and Lin Xiaodong finally understood his meaning.

"Captain Ike," Lin Xiaodong smiled slightly, "Do you still remember how the hymn dedicated to the gods was sung?"

Although he didn't understand why the other party suddenly brought up this topic, Ike nodded and replied, "I remember."

"The earth is bright, and the filth is gone. The Holy Son is a gift from heaven, and bless all beings." The blond Son sighed, his blue eyes staring out of the window, "but now... the gods are hidden from the world, so I will protect all living beings." .”

He turned his head, looked at Captain Ike who was shocked by his rebellious remarks and his expression was numb, and stretched out his hand to the man sincerely and frankly:

"Will you help me, Captain Ike?"
