The laws of this world are still maintained at a rather primitive level - wrapped in the light of civilization. Its use is more to maintain the status of the upper class than to be fair.
If this man saves not his daughter but a nobleman, even if he kills a few gangsters and has the nobleman on his side, he can easily wash away the fact of murder. Not only innocent, but if the nobleman is enough
If you are kind and kind, you will get a lot of money.
But unfortunately, he only saved his daughter.
No matter what the purpose of this man is, he has violated the law. At most, part of the punishment will be reduced because the person facing him is a gangster, and another part of the punishment will be reduced because of the sympathy of the judge and the jury.
On the way to the church, the man washed the blood on his hands and face in the pond, wiped the blood on his clothes with mud, and then sat in front of the confessional, waiting fearfully for the Lord's judgment.
The trembling body represents that the man dare not think about what will happen to his underage daughter after he is hanged for murder.
Even if she is fostered with relatives, it is difficult for a man to ensure that those poor relatives will take good care of his daughter.
After hearing the man's confession, Lu Li did have the idea of asking him to surrender.
Lu Li raised his black eyes slightly and looked at the motto-like content on the hollow wooden wall: [Only the truth can win people's hearts]
Is it the truth...
Lu Li picked up his quill and wrote.
"I can help you, but before anything else, I want to know whether you are repenting for the sins you have committed, or whether you are just afraid of the... price after committing the crime..."
The man read out the contents on the paper in a low voice, and the shaking of his palms was transmitted to the paper, and he murmured like a lost lamb: "I...I don't know..."
He wasn't sure, but it meant he was still saved.
【Tell me your name】
Lu Li wrote, handing the paper with still wet ink out of the wide hole.
"Arthur Green Pierce, Arthur is my Christian name given by the priest."
[Green, you have committed sins, but everything has a reason. The fault is not all your fault. Now you have a chance to repent and save your fallen self]
Lu Li thought about what kind of words the church usually used to deceive believers, and then wrote similar words on paper.
The rough and strong hands outside the wide hole gradually stopped shaking, and Green Pierce begged: "Lord, please tell me what to do..."
[Do you know a lady named Olivia Kicken and a Viscount named Reeves]
Fortunately, the paper with the above content was not rejected by the test, and was successfully passed through the wide hole, and was caught in Green Pierce's hand.
"Olivia... I don't know her, but I know Viscount Reeves, he lives in this Tower Wind City."
Tower Wind City.
Lu Li wrote down the name of the town and wrote: [Find Viscount Reeves. Olivia will go find him soon. Find her, save her, and help her before she is hit by Viscount Reeves' carriage.
, your salvation lies with her]
Tragedy may have happened, but you have to try. This can find a reasonable "truth" for Green Pierce to do, and maybe save a poor person.
But just in case, as soon as he handed over the paper, Lu Li wrote down the basis of the new content.
[Remember, don’t be caught by the police before helping her. If tragedy has happened... arrange the next things, such as saying goodbye]
"I remember the proverbs of the Lord."
Green Pierce left, and the sound of footsteps gradually disappeared from his ears.
Just like the previous level, the scenery changed, and the time in the church accelerated, and was interrupted by a figure breaking into the church, returning to normal.
The outline did not go to the edge of the confessional. In the church at sunset when the organ no longer sounded, the slender outline walked through the rows of seats and stopped in the front row where Lu Li could not observe it.
The test did not "tell" Lu Li the outcome of Green Pierce through outsiders' mouths, only the sound of reciting in a pious whisper.
As time passed, the chanting and whispering sounds were mixed with the faint sobbing sounds of girls.
Another figure walked past the bench and seemed to stop next to the girl. Then an old voice asked softly: "Child, tell me what happened."
"Father, my father passed away..."
Lu Li in the confession room lowered his eyes slightly.
He already knew the outcome of the matter.
"Arthur? What happened to him..." The priest said Green Pierce's Christian name in surprise.
"I was bullied by a group of gangsters. My father rushed over and killed them. He escaped, but was caught by the gangsters again, and then...and then..."
Choked sounds replaced the unspeakable sad words.
"Good boy...it's okay...everything will be fine."
"UuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuHe...He was killed by those bastards...in front of everyone...how could they do this..."
"Evil people will be punished. Arthur has returned to the embrace of the Lord. There is no need to feel too sorry for him..."
Lu Li quietly listened to his daughter's sorrow and the priest's comfort until they left the empty church.
Hua Hua——Hua Hua——
Lu Li's eyes moved slightly, looking towards the direction where the sound came from.
Two hazy figures appeared on the hollow wooden wall. They were sweeping the floor and whispering in the vast and deserted church.
"Have you heard? Olivia was hit and killed by Viscount Reeves' carriage..." said a voice.
"Who is Olivia?" another voice asked.
This scene has happened before.
Lu Li's efforts only added another episode to the situation, but nothing changed.
After listening silently to Sister Sweeper's unchanging content, the curtain came down outside the confessional.
The end of the second level of testing is still a bad ending.
Lu Li picked up the oil lamp that was the only source of light and pushed open the wooden door behind him.
As imagined, the walls and steps have become even worse. The edges and corners of the steps have completely disappeared, just like stone steps that have not been repaired for decades. The pitted walls are dark and dull, and the weak points reveal the reality behind the walls.
It is a boundless abyss of intense despair that fills one's heart just by looking at it.
If the ending of the next level is still not ideal, this space will become even worse.
At that time, the boundless abyss that was blocked from outside will appear in front of Lu Li's eyes without any cover.
Holding an oil lamp, Lu Li silently walked up the weathered stone steps to the carved wooden door on the third floor.
Opening the wooden door, the warm afternoon sunshine and the reverberating sound of the organ in the church seem to make people forget the horror outside the door.
Lu Li's eyes swept over the mottos on the hollow wooden wall.
Those are two new words.
[The difference between a wise man and a mediocre person is that the former knows what should and should not be done, while the latter does not]
[Admitting one's own incompetence is more painful than death]
