Scumbag Transformation Plan - Chapter 81

After chatting with Bernie, Yao Liang decided one thing, this priest is not only a fire-obsessed arsonist, but also a lunatic.

It is useless to try to summarize the previous victim choices. In Bernie’s narrative, the first person accused of being a witch is the barmaid. Her private life is a bit chaotic. This is proof that she was seduced by the devil; the second She is a peasant woman. She is a well-known devout believer in Fusha Town, but this is her disguise in order to let people relax their vigilance against her.

No matter what kind of personality a woman is, what kind of identity she is, or her appearance to the outside world, as long as she is accused of being a witch, there will be countless explanations to prove her evil and depravity. All the justifications that try to prove innocence are sophistry. To give up explanation is to have solid evidence and no longer attempt to lie and deny. In other words, no matter what actions the framed women have, they cannot change the fate of being burned to death.

If you want to add a crime, there is no reason to worry. Bernie expressed this sentence vividly. It seems that if we want to prevent the tragedy from happening again, we can only keep an eye on the priest. Now the house is burned down and there is an excuse to live in the church.

The fire burned until this night before it went out. Yao Liang stood by and waited at dusk. Bernie was also with him. He probably wanted to watch the end of the flame. If he didn’t want to maintain his image, he might have waited for the whole day. Standing here, when the last touch of orange disappeared, he did not miss the regret that flashed in the priest’s eyes.

Yao Liang wanted to go in and see if there were any leftovers. Unfortunately, there were no good lighting facilities in the Middle Ages. You can only see it until tomorrow.

He straightened up, gave up his plan to use the oil lamp provided by Bernie to go to the carpet search, and could not walk up the stairs, although it was not completely burnt to ashes, the shaky appearance made people worry that it would break when stepped on. He looked at the original house again, shook his head, and was about to leave. At this moment, Yao Liang heard the sound of stepping on the wood. He looked up alertly, and he saw the top of the stairs, which was almost hidden in darkness. ‘S little figure, and a pair of glowing golden eyes.

“A cat?” Yao Liang raised the oil lamp in surprise and approached the stairs, but the other party was very alert. He made the first move. The black cat turned around and slowly approached Yao Liang. In the world-time room, immediately after that, there was no more movement, Yao Liang thought a little bit and did not catch up.

The appearance of this cat is a little weird. How can a cat suddenly appear in a fire scene that has just been extinguished? The original body also has no intersection with the cat, and there is no cat in the entire Fusha Town. And the cat, obviously all in the dark, can’t see it in theory, but its eyes are glowing, and the golden pupils are too eye-catching in the dark, which shouldn’t be.

“Er, have you met anything?” Bernie asked with concern when he walked out the door.

Yao Liang said in a frustrated tone: “I can’t see clearly, so I can only see it during the day. Almost most of the things are destroyed.”

He didn’t tell the priest about the black cat. In the Middle Ages, black cats were often regarded as witch’s pets. If he said that a black cat appeared in his house, it would undoubtedly provide significant evidence for Bernie’s persecution of others. .

During the day the next day, Yao Liang missed the black cat, and declined other people’s offer to help. He approached the original house alone, and now said that the ruins might be more appropriate. As expected, he did not find a black cat in the house. There were no important objects in the room on the first floor. All that was left was some tatters. He looked at the stairs and tried his best to find something that could bear the force. The location of the break, boarded the second floor.

When he saw the ground on the second floor, he felt that his decision was very correct. There were still some plum blossom-shaped footprints on the ground. Yao Liang wiped off these traces while walking. Following the footprints, he could see that the cat was not there. Running around in this house, it seemed that he had jumped in from the window of the room where he appeared, then walked straight to the top of the stairs, and then turned back.

There are no other footprints, it looks as if you came in just to come to the stairs to see him. When I left before, I didn’t look like he was frightened and scurrying. The purpose is clear, and I don’t stay in this house. These two lines of footprints are for this. A black cat adds a lot of mystery.

Yao Liang bent down and picked up the beak mask that was stepped on by the cat. It was a little deformed after being roasted at high temperature, but it was not completely melted. He walked to the window and wiped off half of the footprint on the window frame. No one lived behind the house. Farther away is a forest. The black cat is likely to have emerged from the forest, and that forest, Bernie claims to live with witches.

Hunters will not go deep into the forest. This forest has very dangerous predators. After Bernie suggested that it was a witch’s lair, there were more rumors about the depths of the forest. For example, the witch had a dark castle there. , They will drive the beasts to attack the crowd, causing more people to dare not walk into the forest.

Yao Liang inspected the entire house. There was nothing to use. The money and currency were gone. There were some metal utensils that were deformed but still usable. The original body also had a pot for boiling medicinal materials. Some of the equipment for grinding powder, the most complete is a scalpel in an iron box, although the original body only uses it for bloodletting treatment, which sounds like a murderous behavior.

After confirming that there were no traces of black cats in the house, Yao Liang walked out holding these tools. The onlookers knew the reason, and there was nothing left in his house. Bernie generously provided him with accommodation, and other people in Fusha Town also said that they could help him clean up the house. After Yao Liang promised to see a doctor free of charge for the next year, these people became more enthusiastic and even proposed a refurbishment. Suggest.

Because doctors are rare here, even the nobles in the main city in the distance have only two doctors, let alone doctors with good medical skills. Many civilians were afraid of expensive prices before and were afraid to see a doctor. Now they can get the promise of free medical treatment with some physical labor. The whole Fusha Town is full of enthusiasm.

The rest of his life can be almost dull, living in a church, just staring at Bernie. For a priest, Bernie’s life is not simple, he is not a penance, like the Holy See in the literature, but in a small place like Fusha, he is not very extravagant.

Occasionally I went to see the house reconstruction process. Some of the houses he thought were okay. The townspeople would hold them and ask him if he could take them away. They were useful. After he agreed to these requests, Yao Liang could clearly feel that some residents treated him. The change in attitude seems to be closer.

Bernie seems to have given up on finding the witch this time, or that he has not yet selected a witch candidate, there is no abnormality on the surface, and no preparations are made, but sometimes his eyes will be on the piled wood. , I also heard that he asked the hunter to chop some wood back.

It was as if a knife was hanging all the time. Yao Liang tried to keep his eyes on Bernie even more. Unfortunately, this was a bit unreasonable. Instead, it attracted the attention of the other party. He was beaten and tried several times. Fortunately, he was surprised and unsuspected Hiding in the past also made Yao Liang more cautious.

Since Bernie didn’t take any action at the moment, Yao Liang decided to go and see the black cat that he cared very much about. After that, he also went to the original house at night, but unfortunately he never saw the black cat again. , Those shiny golden pupils often appeared in his memory.

So Yao Liang bypassed the original house and walked towards the forest in the name of supplementing the medicine in a secret recipe for the treatment of high fever.

Standing on the edge of the forest, he could see his window. The window on the wall was about the foothold of the black cat. He was thinking about how the other party climbed onto the window sill. If he wanted more, that cat, why Accurately found the room where the original body ended up? Does it have anything to do with the original body?

There is no clue in the memory of the original body, nor amnesia. Of course, it is more likely that he thinks too much. The cat just walked into a room casually, was attracted by the jumping flames, and then frightened away by his own movement.

It is very difficult to find a cat in the forest. Yao Liang did not bother to find it. If the cat is really weird, then it may appear in front of him on its own initiative. If it is purely nervous, then find It doesn’t make any sense.

Therefore, Yao Liang was very minded. He paid attention to the herbs that might be in the forest and the traces of wild animals. As he got deeper, various bushes, vines, thorns and thorns began to appear ordinary, obstructing his path, and the roots of the trees were bare Outside of the mud, it added a lot of difficulty to the advancement. There were the sound of animals running by and the sound of snakes crawling. However, Yao Liang had not changed his face and was not worried about these dangers.

When he picked up a herb, he heard the sound of leaves being smashed right in front of him. He raised his head and kept the black cat standing on the root of the tree opposite him, looking at him quietly, his golden eyes in the sun. There was no light underneath, but Yao Liang knew that this was the cat he met that night.

“Are you here to find me?” the young man asked, but did not get up, fearing that the cat would be taken away. Under his gaze, the black cat nodded reservedly, turned around, and made a “follow up” action at him. It was humane as if there was a human soul in his body, and he was in a certain task. The roles played by the world are very similar.

Yao Liang didn’t hesitate to follow the animal, and the other side would look back from time to time to see if he was left behind. When he was circling around and couldn’t remember the way back, they finally reached their destination, a simple one. Wooden house.

The black cat jumped forward and jumped into the arms of a girl wearing a linen skirt. The other party picked up the cat and stroked her back, looking at Yao Liang. There was a long scar on her face, rubbing from the end of her eyebrows vertically. Passing the corner of the eye, staying at the position of the cheek close to the lips, there were some healed wounds on the exposed hands. She didn’t seem to care about these scars. She introduced to Yao Liangping peacefully, her voice was also somewhat rough after vocal cord damage: “Hello, I am the only one who escaped from the cell after being accused by the priest as a witch, you can call me Dicati.”

“I’m El, a doctor.” Yao Liang looked at the girl very cautiously. The meeting with the other party was a little unexpected, and the other party’s attitude was also very strange. He seemed not to worry about revealing his identity in front of him. Later, she will be taken out or explain her identity to the priest and others.

DiCasi’s complexion was still flat, she opened the door and walked in: “I know you have many questions. I can answer all of your questions before the sun goes down.”

Yao Liang stayed outside for a while. He listened carefully to the movement inside the house, and after making sure that there was only one person and one cat, he stepped into this dilapidated space.
