There is still too little information on the "Iwabuchi Mainichi Shimbun", but this is open news, and even if there is really any secret, the media will not report it so loudly, and Holden only hopes to grasp the basic situation through the newspaper, and does not expect the newspaper to give an answer.In a short period of information, in fact, a lot of clues can already be captured, but there are too few clues at present, and Horden has no way to make an accurate judgment immediately for the time being, and he needs to continue to wait and see for a while.Even if the street news revealed by the newsboy just now is true and reliable, Holden cannot take it lightly: what role does Viscount Philo play?
How much more news have been blocked by the vigilantes and the Umani Church?
Also, what really happened in that house?
The truth remains in the fog.After mastering the basic information, Horden did not put down the newspaper immediately, but carefully read the entire newspaper, understood the world from his own perspective, and at the same time corroborated with the memories of the original owner in his mind, and further slowly adapted to the current rhythm of life.It's a fun experience.Wobbly, the whole newspaper had not been fully read before the train had arrived at its destination, and Hodden had not even had time to look at the city scene outside the window along the way, so he had to quickly stand up and follow the crowd out of the light rail.You don't need to go down the street, but if you stand three stories high, you can see the Iwabuchi Library, which is the coordinates of the city, and the Umani Cathedral not far away.In fact, the Midtown District, where the Iwabuchi Library is located, is the most prosperous and lively area in the city, with the upper part being an area for the aristocracy and the lower part being a common life area, which also makes the unique location of the Midtown District stand out and form the center of the city with the Iwabuchi Library as the center.In addition to the Umani Church, the main churches of the other six major churches are also within ten blocks of the neighborhood, within a twenty-minute walk.From afar, the architecture of the Umani Church is instantly recognizable, and the ivory marble building stands out in the gray city, even more prominent than the Iwabuchi Library, which is the city's landmark, and the Tamzi Church, the symbol of the city.As he stepped into the threshold of the church, Holden could faintly feel the subtle change in the taste of his breath, a dry smell close to the sun mixed with a refreshing sweetness surging under his nose, so that Holden strongly wondered if someone was stealing lemon cake here.There is nothing special about the interior of the church, except for the rows of benches, on which a few people sit and seem to be immersed in their own world.Directly in front of it is a podium, and behind it hangs a statue of the male god Umani, with deep facial features and well-defined muscles like a child of the sun, with a shallow smile at the corner of his mouth, and his white jade skin refracted with radiant light, which is invisibly filled with an illusion of bathing in the "light of the gods".Could it be that there is a light psychic energy set up invisibly around it?
Subconsciously, Hoden began to look for hidden facilities above the dome.However, he was unable to find the psionic device, but he saw a familiar figure on the painted window on the right-hand side, which made Hoden's footsteps slowly approach."
That's Hano."
A low voice came from his ear, and he made a friendly introduction.Turning his head, standing beside Horden was a young man dressed as a monk, who looked no more than in his early twenties, although he had shaved his head, he did not look vicious at all, but showed his kind facial features, and there was a feeling of softness, and it was no problem to say that he was about the same age as Holden."
You don't look like a follower of the Umani."
The other party showed a smile, as if he noticed the look in Holden's eyes, so he took the initiative to say, "If you are interested, I can give you a brief introduction." ”Hodden raised his eyebrows slightly, and did not refuse: a sweep in the rush last night, if he was not mistaken, there was a statue of a god hanging on one of the walls of the burning room, not the male god Umani, but the male god Hano in front of him.Coupled with the gossip from the newsboy, the clues seem to be connected for the first time.It's faint, but at least it's a start."
That couldn't be better."
Hoden did not reveal his information, but only expressed curiosity, and at the same time, under the calm surface, he became fully vigilant.Is he a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?
If the fire is really connected to the Umani Church, if the Umani Church is really trying to kill Holden, if the Umani Church is looking for Holden......
Then, Horden was sent straight to the door by mistake.Now, assuming that the Umani Church is behind the scenes, and that Hoden is the first to be discovered, there are two biggest possibilities for what is happening: first, they are ready to let Hoden let down his guard and wait for an opportunity to attack; Second, they are ready to test Horden to see how many secrets Horden knows.Of course, there are many other possibilities, and it is also possible that it is simply Holden's crankiness, and the other party is just showing friendship, and if so, it would be even better."
Hano is a miracle doctor in the legend of the Chaos Era, able to cure many diseases, one day, he met a plague village on the way, with his own efforts, he saved most of the people in the village, the dark god of wisdom and death was furious, because of the loss of a large number of undead who should have ended their lives, so, Tamzi asked the male god of light Umani to kill Hano as punishment."
The other party was always smiling and telling the story, his eyes falling on Holden's face, and he couldn't take his eyes off Holden's expression."
What?"
Howlen's eyes widened slightly, full of confusion and surprise: the accident was genuine, he really hadn't heard of these stories, but his expression was slightly exaggerated, and the subtle movements between his eyebrows and eyes expressed the rich surge in his heart, like a real high school student."
I thought you were a believer in the male god Tamzi."
The other party keenly caught Holden's expression and asked with interest.Holden made a head-scratching motion, revealing a shy and shy smile, "What if I said that I haven't read the allusion epic of the Chaos Era." ”"Haha."
Holden's frankness made the other party laugh happily, "It's completely understandable. ”Obviously, not everyone is familiar with church allusions; Moreover, not every believer is so religious, especially now that psionic energy and faith are becoming weaker and weaker, and technology such as the steam engine is changing the world, and many things have quietly changed."
So, did Umani do it?"
Holden's eyes flashed with curiosity.The other party lifted his chin slightly, very satisfied with Holden's reaction, "Unfortunately, Hano died after all. ”Holden was slightly stunned, the direction of the story was a little unusual—deep down, he was thinking: this is better than the headlines of the "Iwabuchi Daily News".()
