Chapter 18 Interrogation and the truth

Ning Xiuyuan opened his eyes drowsily and found that he was lying in a somewhat dirty ward. The walls were covered with mottled brown patches. It was unclear whether they were blood stains or other body fluids left by previous patients.

On the mobile medical cabinet next to it, there are various commonly used and scary medical equipment.

Medical bone saws, bloodletting knives, giant scissors, hypodermic syringes, hemostatic fixation plugs...

On the opposite wall, there is also a medical poster promoting lice!

"you're awake?"

A slightly sarcastic voice came.

Ning Xiuyuan struggled to sit up and looked around. The person who spoke was a priest in black clothes standing by the window. He was about thirty years old, with thick golden hair and cold eyes.

Looking around, I saw a priest sitting at the door, looking down at a book.

"How long have I slept?" Ning Xiuyuan asked.

"Ha, listen, the first thing our lampkeeper cares about when he wakes up is how long he has slept? Aren't you curious about how Orlando is doing?"

The blond priest's tone became more and more mocking: "That's right, you knew Orlando was dead before you pretended to sleep, so you weren't curious."

Ning Xiuyuan frowned, he smelled something was wrong.

"Okay, let's inform the investigation team!" The priest, who had been reading, spoke.

The blond priest narrowed his eyes, and an invisible ghost jumped out of his body, crashed into the wall, and disappeared.

Apparently the investigation team was notified.

Ning Xiuyuan saw that the two of them looked mean and ungrateful, and did not speak wisely.

He looked around and found that his crystal lantern, revolver, and some small items were placed on the bedside table, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

I felt my physical condition again and found that my physical condition was unexpectedly perfect.

He thought for a moment and suddenly realized.

After killing Orlando's out-of-control body, as part of the extraordinary characteristics absorbed by it returned, his self and extraordinary characteristics also merged due to killing the out-of-control body, reaching a new level.

The current level of integration has reached about a quarter.

It is the extraordinary characteristics of this part of the fusion that make his resilience different from ordinary people.

Not long after, the sound of heavy footsteps coming from outside interrupted Ning Xiuyuan's contemplation. He looked up and saw several priests walking in.

It seems that they are the so-called investigation team.

"Arthur, you should still remember what happened before you fell into coma, right?"

After entering, the leader asked straight to the point.

His name is Ross, whom Ning Xiuyuan knows.

He is about forty years old and has thin hair. He rarely appears in church, but every time he appears, all the priests treat him with great respect.

This made Ning Xiuyuan realize that there is actually a difference in status among the same priests.

"Remember."

"Very good, tell me carefully!"

Rhodes asked, not even bothering to explain that this was a routine investigation.

Ning Xiuyuan also realized something. He sorted out his words and asked, "I...how many days have I been in coma? I need a definite time to describe it."

Ross took a breath: "One day and one night, today is June 10th."

Ning Xiuyuan nodded.

"At about three or four o'clock in the morning on June 9th, I got up and went to the church to check the candlelight. After I finished my work, Father Wright suddenly rushed in and said that Orlando was seriously injured and asked me to go for treatment——"

Before Ning Xiuyuan finished speaking, a priest shouted angrily.

"You lied! There are so many healers in the church, there is no need for Wright to find you, a newcomer!"

In an instant, tensions erupted in the ward.

Ning Xiuyuan's pupils shrank, and he finally realized what happened.

——He was suspected by the church to be a murderer!

"Continue!" Ross raised his hand to stop his colleagues' questioning and continued to ask.

Ning Xiuyuan was angry in his heart. He didn't expect that he had prevented a crisis from spreading out of control, but in exchange for this kind of treatment.

But under the eaves, he had to lower his head, so he could only continue:

"A rusty iron sword pierced Orlando's chest, right through his heart..."

"I don't even know how to lie. Only Sister Angela can heal this kind of serious injury! Wright will never come to you." The priest yelled again.

"Well, on the night of June 9th, Sister Angela was not in the city." Rhodes whispered, his tone was not an angry one.

The priest looked awkward and opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.

"continue!"

"And I cured him!"

"You..." The reprimanded priest wanted to speak again, but was stopped by his companion.

"If I remember correctly, you only became an ascetic doctor on June 8th, right? How did you treat such a serious injury?" Ross looked strange and suspicious.

"I only treated the heart. There is no essential difference between healing a heart wound and healing an ordinary wound." Ning Xiuyuan said in a low voice.

After the voice fell, all the priests in the ward looked at each other, not expecting the answer to be so simple.

Unfortunately, no one in the ward is an ascetic doctor, and no one knows whether this is possible.

"Really? I will ask Sister Angela to confirm this. She is also an ascetic doctor. If you want to change your mind, it's still late." Father Rhodes was expressionless.

"I suggest you find a few more people, even the bishop, to confirm it to prevent anyone from colluding with the confession and frame me up." Ning Xiuyuan was also very angry, and his eyes coldly swept across the room full of priests who were watching indifferently.

All the priests looked ugly when they heard this.

"Thank you for reminding me, I will." Father Rhodes nodded: "Continue."

"After I cured Orlando, no one expected that a ghost suddenly emerged from the rusty sword and penetrated into Orlando's body, causing him to completely lose control."

Before Ning Xiuyuan finished speaking, he was interrupted again.

"This is not common sense at all. If the enemy wanted to kill Orlando, why would he plot it afterwards? When the iron sword penetrated Orlando's body, it should have happened immediately."

This was questioned by another young priest with arms crossed and brown hair.

Ning Xiuyuan didn't explain because he didn't know why.

"What's your explanation for this?" Unexpectedly, he didn't want to explain, but the other party didn't want to let it go.

"I don't know, but after I cured Orlando and got off the carriage to talk to Pine, Pine said that they met a sinister and cunning puppet master. He disguised himself as a gravekeeper and controlled zombies to fight. Orlando was the one who was

A headless zombie sneak attack caused fatal injuries. Perhaps there is a hidden meaning behind hiding the ghost in the iron sword."

Ning Xiuyuan's thoughts were like lightning and he explained, but he had to explain.

The experience of killing the out-of-control body taught him that no one in this world is trustworthy, and only himself is his greatest support!

Sure enough, his words made the priests frown.

Because they did find out that Orlando encountered a puppet master who controlled zombies that night.

"Continue, what happens after Orlando loses control?"

"He killed Wright..." Ning Xiuyuan roughly recounted the battle process.

"Wait, you're saying that the out-of-control body killed Wright, Atli, and Pine successively, and even dragged you back to prepare to kill you?" Ross interrupted Ning Xiuyuan and repeated his confirmation.

"Yes!"

"How did the out-of-control body die? Don't tell you, you fainted and didn't know anything." Ross' eyes were deep.

Ning Xiuyuan pursed his lips: "I killed him."

One word fell, earth-shattering!

"What? Did I hear you correctly? You mean, you killed the out-of-control body that absorbed four extraordinary characteristics?"

"Even if the out-of-control body is not completely absorbed, even if it is irrational, it is not something you, an ascetic doctor, can kill!"

"Don't tell me you used a gun! To tell you the truth, only the extraordinary bullets assigned to Atli were found at the scene."

The priests in the room looked at each other in shock, with shock and doubt on their faces. They didn't believe that Ning Xiuyuan could kill Orlando's out-of-control body.

"Silence! Arthur, tell me, how did you kill Orlando's out-of-control body? I want to know every detail."

Father Rhodes took a few steps closer and stood in front of the hospital bed, condescendingly staring into Ning Xiuyuan's eyes.

Ning Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes.

Does this tell you?

If I tell you, this is tantamount to exposing the biggest weakness of disease fraudsters to the public!
