Silona shivered cooperatively, looked at Li Hao's slightly serious expression, and finally said: "Actually, this story is not exciting, and even has some tragic elements. Before that, I want to express my condolences to the injured Princess Simier. Apologize, my intention was not to hurt her, but at that time, the consciousness of the devil took over my soul and prevented me from thinking like a normal person. As you may have guessed, I was indeed a "shadow" I am a member of the Inquisition, but I am not affiliated with any assassination and arrest team. My boss is the second inquisitor of the Inquisition. Above him are the chief magistrates and representatives of the saints. Therefore, my religious beliefs are very firm. I am loyal and pious. In terms of attainments, they are much higher than the guys at the Holy Investigation Institute. You must be curious why I emphasize these things. That’s because my job content is to help the Second Adjudicator sort out secret documents that have never been made public. Among them, there are opposition The assassination orders of the feudal fighters also have detailed records of the trial process, as well as many heretical ideological readings banned by the Holy See, as well as the "Redemptor Blacklist" issued every six months, which lists all those who are about to be invited to the divine investigation. Poor people who drink tea or go to the torture room of the inquisition to be brainwashed, so every six months, "Shadow" and "Holy Investigation Agency" will be dispatched in full force. This cycle has never stopped. As for the highest level of "black light assassination" ", is directly dispatched by Pope Sylvester, composed of ten hunters and thirty shadow dance badge holders. As for what they need to do every day, even the Lord Magistrate has no way of knowing. This is what I do. You must think I am an excellent liar, right?"

For Li Hao, a hunter whose status is equivalent to that of a Paladin, and a peak thief whose worth is comparable to that of a gold-level private alchemist are all areas that cannot be touched for at least ten years.With a dubious attitude, he motioned for Silona to continue.

"To your ears, this must be a job that is both dark and glorious. I only need to sit in the office of the Inquisition, move my quill, and read a few pages of the Holy See's books, and I will receive more money than the provincial consul. A generous salary, instead of taking a dagger and shadow as a companion, to participate in extremely dangerous hunting activities. It is a pity that my fate in the Inquisition is just like when I was just born, miserable and without shelter, just like these White Rose refugees who have been deported for many years. 32 days ago, on the day when the Holy See convened the 9th Senate Council, I was sent by the busy Adjudicator to St. John’s Cathedral to act as an observer and responsible for recording the meeting. In detail, everything went very smoothly. The bad old men of the Senate accepted the White Rose Pardon newly issued by the Holy See. This was a political trick commonly used by the Holy Investigation to release the bell tower prison by forging false papal documents. The puppets who were forcibly indoctrinated with heretical thoughts lured the real prey to relax their vigilance. They kept nailing the photo of Dong Zhengmu to a cross sprinkled with baby blood, and asked a group of Christians to repeat the blood curse day and night in order to pray for help. The mysterious power of the Black Emperor killed this potential biggest threat. On the day we returned to the Parliament, after completing all the tasks assigned by the adjudicator, I did not go back to the tribunal directly as usual, but bought a lot of things that the children liked. The gift went to the orphanage behind St. John's Cathedral. It is the smallest of all the papal orphanages. The conditions are worse than the slums. There are only two old nuns struggling to maintain it, and they need to feed thirty people. The parents of the poor children adopted by the Holy See are basically veterans who died in the White Rose Jihad."

Silona paused again when she said this, her eyes filled with sadness and fear in memories.

"Then, you should continue talking so that I can understand why there is no coldness or arrogance in your eyes now." Li Hao couldn't wait. He was a man who was very good at listening and got into the mood very quickly. His intuition told him , what is hidden in Silona is by no means as simple as an encounter or a story, it may be earth-shattering.

"Okay sir, let me drink some hot water first to moisten my throat. Do you still remember what you heard?" Silona held the water glass and said while drinking, as if she was very forgetful.

"Speaking of the 'Salvation Orphanage', it's a place worse than the slums." Li Hao looked quiet and gently rubbed the black cross pattern on the dark gold dagger with his thumb. His knowledge of the Vatican's knowledge was basically zero. I only know a few appalling terms.For a staunch atheist, the chance of being accused of heresy by a divine investigation is much greater than the chance of being dragged into the torture chamber for blasphemy. This is why young nobles would rather be a cheap pseudo-priest than hang on to the title of gentleman. The key to getting into provincial government work. The era of authoritarian order is also the most serious polarization phenomenon in the history of religion. Otherwise, the world-famous Order of Monks and Knights would not have the confidence to be so arrogant and domineering.

"But for homeless children, a place with moldy black bread and thin quilts can already be regarded as paradise. I stayed there for about two hours and taught the children to sing new hymns. I What I clearly remember is "Where Flowers Bloom". And when I returned to the tribunal, I found that the document bag I carried with me was missing. It contained the detailed transcripts of the meeting and the new issue of "The Redeemer". "Blacklist". Can you understand that feeling? For a silver-robed deacon, the crime of losing confidential documents is much more serious than spreading heresy. I had no choice but to return to the "Salvation Orphanage" overnight and move everyone I turned everything upside down, and the result was just like "Hamlet". I was so tragic that I didn't know where to go. Fortunately, the judge had to attend a palace banquet in the evening. So I had new time, and I tried to remember all the things I had been to. place, and then all searched for the past. The fact was just like it was at the beginning, there was no room for maneuver. I felt that hope was getting slimmer and dimmer, and I felt that the distance between night and day was so short. In the first ray of morning light illuminating Jerusalem At that time, I was wearing a thin Vatican silver robe, sitting in the central square in front of the cathedral, looking at the increasingly sacred cross on the top of the obelisk, and burst into tears. I did not return to the Inquisition that day, but hid in the corner of the ruins park , watching the sun go down and the moon rise, reincarnations alternately. I think that should be the last time I enjoy my favorite scenery. The politicians of the "Holy Investigation Institute" broke into the inquisition and dragged the adjudicator into the torture room. I have always been obsessed with the gap in privileges, and I like to find many small flaws to cause trouble. I was personally included in the list of apostates by the Chief Magistrate, and was hunted for blasphemy and leaking secrets."

"It seems you must have escaped successfully." Li Hao interjected and handed the newly brewed green tea to her hand, his expression no longer as cold as before.
