21 Absurd Farce(1/2)
A scream broke the silence of dawn and woke up many people in the riverside manor. Then, as if prepared, several terrifying screams rang out one after another.
It seems that something extraordinary happened.
Bernie woke up as well. After opening his eyes and looking at the strange window curtain, he got up and called, then turned his head to look at a sleeping figure in the corner of the room.
Drugs, stuff people, and frame them.
The process that happened last night was roughly similar to what he guessed. While he was "sleeping", someone secretly opened the door and stuffed people in.
The steps to frame it now have come.
But what surprised him was that the person they stuffed in was not a woman, but a man...
Walking to the person in the corner, Bernie squatted down and patted the other person's head.
Then as he opened his eyes hazy, he said in a serious tone: "Who are you? How did you run into my room?"
In the corner, this boy looked like he was a twelve or thirteen years old. He was still very slow to wake up, but when he heard this, he felt a little unhappy.
"Who are you? This is my family, how could it be yours-"
He suddenly reacted halfway through his words, and hurriedly got up from the ground and looked around. His expression, which was originally annoying, suddenly became gloomy.
"Which bitch is it the dog bastard that Is it?"
He walked out the door cursing and happened to be a servant coming and knocking on the door in a hurry. He bumped into the boy and walked out of it with horror.
"Master Colifo, you..."
"What do I do, get out of here!" The boy pushed the other person away, "I want to see who brought me-"
Halfway through, he suddenly looked up at the other person.
"Who asked you to come?"
"No one asked me to come, Master, it's--"
"No one, what do you do so early?"
The boy questioned and looked at Bernie in the room, "Announcing our guests to rest?"
"No, the young master, the other deacons are in trouble. The housekeeper asked me to come and see here..."
"What happened?" the boy continued to question.
"this……"
The servant hesitated when he heard this, but the young man had already glared at him impatiently and was about to check it out in person.
"Did someone else appear in some deacon's room?" Bernie, who walked over, asked.
"Yes, Lord Deacon."
The servant hurriedly said, "And they...they...you should go and see it yourself."
Bernie nodded.
The rooms of several deacons were not far away, and they had arrived at the crime scene in just a few steps, so Bernie saw some absurd situations.
He covered his buttocks and howled, screamed in horror, dying and even seemed to be almost dead...
Of course, these were not the deacons of the church, but some guests who came to the banquet. Opposite them were the gloomy or pale faces of the other three newly promoted deacons berney.
There were still some blood stains on the floor in their room. As more and more people gathered around, they silently showed everything that happened last night.
"Someone is persecuting us, Deacon Bernie!"
A familiar new deacon screamed when he saw Bernie, his own man, and shouted with grief and anger:
"No one else, only us, only us - uh, why are you okay?"
He suddenly found some details on Bernie that were different from them, so he was a little surprised.
"It is God's blessing." Bernie said, this is not a lie. He has a talent for immune poison.
"It seems we have encountered evil temptations. Deacon Theodore, what exactly happened here?" Bernie asked then.
He also came from an investigation team, but only some core personnel knew Bernie's specific identity, while others only knew that Bernie had been in the church for a short time and had a rapid promotion speed, which was highly valued by Bishop Rhodes.
Therefore, Bernie's unconventional appearance made the speculation that some people persecuted them, the Rhodes-based direct line, shook a little.
But it is an indisputable fact that he is framed by himself. So in the face of the suspicious eyes of people around him, the deacon named Theodore began to tell the situation last night.
It was roughly the time when he came to the room and had a midnight snack after the banquet, he suddenly had a dream that shamed him while he was asleep. As a result, he woke up and found someone lying next to him.
"I believe Deacon Theodore is innocent."
After the new deacon told his "story", an old man standing there tremblingly unsteadily said in a complicated expression: "Someone must have done something in this. After I finished the midnight snack, I fell asleep and didn't know anything..."
Obviously, he was the one who lay next to him last night.
The other people were basically similar in their situations, and they met some old and ugly people, which made Bernie secretly wonder why the one in his room was a beautiful little boy?
Is there any different treatment for this kind of thing?
However, after hearing the situation, no one suspected that these deacons were "indisciplined after drinking".
However, the eyes of the onlookers looking at them were still very strange. This look made the parties involved both annoyed and shy. Imagine if the news spreads out, they may even be a little desperate.
However, the atmosphere did not continue like this awkwardly, because then a shrill cry suddenly came from upstairs.
The second floor where they are located is the guest room area, and the upper floor is the private residence of the Camboré family. After hearing the noise, people immediately guessed that this must be a situation inside the Camboré family.
The guests who were watching the fun hurriedly walked in that direction, but there were guards blocking the entrance of the stairs upstairs, and the owners here agreed that they could not go up at all.
Therefore, they could only stay on the second floor, listening to the rapid footsteps and many panic shouts upstairs.
For a moment, what happened above became a key thing for people to pay attention to.
The victims are then given the opportunity to deal with their own problems.
For example, immediately inform the church about what happened here, appease the other half who is also a victim, and wait for the church to question it, and prepare the ritual of confession and purity for these victims.
The deacon named Theodore even used the holy object of help to write a letter to Bishop Rhodes to explain clearly what was happening here.
But before they could finish their work, a hurried figure ran down from the third floor and asked the deacons to go up and help.
Although they were still unable to take care of themselves, it was good to have other things to alleviate their embarrassing situation, so several deacons eagerly went upstairs.
Bernie and they were very serious on the surface, but in fact they were quietly observing everything that happened at this moment.
The grief-inspired victims, the bystanders full of gossip, the panicked servants, and the solemn and weird expressions of some core members of the Camborre family on the third floor.
"My father was...stricken last night and needed treatment in urgent need of treatment."
Seeing the deacons rushing over, the heir of the Camborre family, the young nobleman named Livay Camborre, said in a daze: "We have sent someone to ask for help from the Assistant Bishop Victor, but it will take some time. If any deacon has a solution now, I hope to help him as soon as possible."
In fact, if the body is not too fragile, it does not require the treatment of the bishop-level extraordinary person. It is competent for general potions and healing holy water.
So after hearing this, a deacon hurriedly walked into the room, while the others asked about the details.
But this kind of thing seems to be embarrassing, and the young nobles are obviously unwilling to say more.
But since it happened at the same time, I think the situation is roughly the same as theirs.
Therefore, some people expressed anger at this.
"Not only blasphemed the clergy, they even did not let go of the old earl. Such evil behavior must be the kind of poisonous snakes and the conspiracy of the devil!"
"Maybe the person behind him is a believer of the devil, so we must investigate this matter strictly!"
"Yes, it must be investigated strictly!"
...
They were very indignant, but the young nobles next to them were quite bitter about this.
If the victims were only a few direct deacons of Rhodes, the whole thing would have gone very smoothly.
Because he has a perfect blame-
A while ago, Bishop Rhodes's extensive trial was affected by many people, and the son of a chef in his family was sanctioned and died during the trial.
If it was a normal person, then this was nothing. But the chef was a hidden pagan.
This young noble has long been discovered.
However, because he thought that he might be able to use this pagan to accomplish something within the family, he kept pretending not to know.
So when he reached a deal with Bazel, he suddenly thought of that guy.
Therefore, what happened last night was actually prepared by the pagan chef and his wife who was the chief maid.
During this period, he just guided him secretly, not even considered a guide, but just said some "reminders" inadvertently.
So under normal circumstances, after this incident, even if the church investigates, it will only investigate the chef, but not the head of him.
Even if he was interrogated, he was not very scared.
On the one hand, there are secret protections from the local church, and on the other hand, he also has certain means to resist extraordinary inquiries.
He even said that this matter would damage the reputation of the entire Camborre family, and he had never considered it.
Because the head of the Camborre family is his father, not him, and it is also his father's responsibility to have some mismanagement problems.
To be continued...
