The warden who guards the witches

"The one who became famous more than a hundred years ago?" Aiden confirmed to Meirujinu, "She is still alive?"

"You are living well. Challenging death is a subject that is studied not only by witches but also by all black magicians. Necromancy is one of the by-products of specializing in this subject." Meirujinu said quietly, "It's different. What’s more, the necromancers only want to control life and death, while the witches challenge death in order to extend their limited life and gain time to delve into endless knowledge.”

"Huh, so witches are just academics who are purely engaged in scientific research?" Aiden picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. "It sounds like you were all innocent when you were arrested and sent to prison."

He was somewhat dissatisfied with Meirujinu's statement. It was true that witches were pursuing forbidden knowledge, but it would be wrong to say that all witches were simply pursuing knowledge.

The crimes for which most witches were arrested and sent to prison were not just for black magic. There were many cases of witches using forbidden knowledge to run illegal businesses, manufacture and sell illegal drugs, human trafficking, theft and robbery to make profits.

Meirukinu herself is the most typical example. She uses the knowledge she gained as a witch to train killers and sell magic potions, so as to gain power and wealth in the underworld.

Meiruijinu heard Aiden's sarcasm, but just smiled to herself: "It is true that some witches...including me, just use forbidden knowledge to seek more benefits, so we can't get those who purely study The recognition of the witches of knowledge. My teacher has complained more than once, saying that I am very talented but not pure enough. It is precisely because of this that I enjoy worldly power and wealth more than pursuing the end of knowledge. She will always be one step away from becoming a great witch recognized by Abigail.”

"Is that why she kicked you out of the school?"

"No, it's because I stole her name to sell magic potions. This is something that witches often do, but it is also something that is expressly prohibited by the 'Witches' Coven'." Mirukinu shrugged, "She got angry and I was removed from the list.”

"Okay, that means this thing is a certificate that can only be obtained by the top witch recognized by Abigail. If you get this, you can meet Abigail herself..." Aiden tried to summarize Mei Liu. The information provided by Ji Nu, "Then how to use this thing? Can you use it to enter the Sabbat Forest to find Abigail's residence?"

He would probably have to hand this so-called "certificate of the great witch" to the Heretic Bureau, but the Heretic Bureau would definitely ask him for information about this thing.

With Precia completely losing her memory and Dai Li unable to disclose it, the only relatively reliable source of information about this thing is Mei Liujinu. For Aiden, it is best to ask for all this information at once and then hand it over together. It's obviously easier.

But this time Mei Liujinu spread her hands: "I don't know about this, and I have never held it. You should ask her."

Meiliu Jinu raised her hand and pointed at Dai Li.

"But she can't say it." Aiden glanced at Dai Li, and then turned to Mei Liujinu again, "You said she has an 'unspeakable contract' with her, can you cancel it?"

Meirujinu is not only good at potions. She has broken the devil contract that Aiden imposed on Dai Li in the past.

"I'm kidding, I'm really good at this, but to challenge the 'Top Witch', I'm overestimating my abilities. The contract she made might also hide some backlash trap." Mirukinu said without even thinking about it. He waved his hand and said, "Forgive me for refusing."

It seems that no more information can be obtained, Aiden thought to himself.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door outside the room.

"What's wrong?" Aiden asked.

Flanda's voice came from outside the door: "Warden, there is a man coming over at the reception who claims to be the Inquisitor of the Inquisition. He said he has something urgent to do with you."

"Come to me directly?" Aiden frowned slightly.

He has not informed the Heretic Bureau of Precia's situation. Someone from the Heretic Bureau suddenly came at this time. Could it be that someone suddenly noticed Precia's problem afterwards?

No matter what, I didn't go through the official procedures step by step, but came to him directly. The person I visited must be someone who knew him.

"What kind of person is he?" he asked casually.

"That person didn't bring official documents or identification, so the receptionist asked her to register her name. She called herself Rebecca Sean."

"Rebecca?" Aiden was startled.

Rebecca was still recuperating, so why did she suddenly come to him in the name of the Inquisitor?

Moreover, he just visited Rebecca this morning...

After thinking for a while, Aiden replied: "Ask the receptionist to take her to the interview room, and I will go to the interview room to meet her."

"OK."

Aiden stood up from his seat and looked back and forth between Dai Li and Mei Liujinu: "Okay, you can go back to your cells."

There is no information to ask for anyway.

A few minutes later, he personally walked into the room where prisoners and visitors met. Rebecca was waiting on the other side of the glass curtain wall, looking a little anxious.

"You came here all of a sudden, what's the matter?" Aiden asked straight to the point.

"Aiden..." Rebecca looked at him solemnly, "I went to the Inquisition Bureau today. I heard that Precia was sent here in advance because of a sudden illness. Is it true?"

"Don't mention it. The Inquisition has given me a big trouble. I haven't complained to the old man yet..." Aiden let out a long sigh, then frowned at Rebecca, "You are still recuperating now, is it necessary to come here to ask for this?"

"After all, I caught the person... She also caused me to lose my memory. The only memory I have left of my work now is the action of arresting her. Isn't it normal to pay attention to the follow-up?" Rebecca replied as a matter of course, "Precia, what is her current situation?"

"It's a foreign body in the gastrointestinal tract. Don't you have any clue about this?" Aiden asked casually.

"Uh..." Rebecca hesitated for a moment and shook her head, "Sorry, I really don't remember this."

This is normal. If Rebecca knew and remembered that Precia swallowed the things she carried with her when she was forced to the end of her rope, the Inquisition would not be completely unaware of this situation.

"Since it's a foreign body in the gastrointestinal tract, the prison's medical facilities can't solve it." Rebecca suddenly asked, "Did you send her to the hospital?"

"No..."

When Aiden was halfway through answering, Rebecca suddenly raised her voice: "Why not? This thing needs to be treated immediately. If it perforates, it can be fatal!"
