As soon as he heard the name Undine, Gallo immediately became energetic. He quickly smoothed his clothes, ran to the door and stood there, waiting for this distinguished guest to come.
He stood at the door for several minutes without waiting for the person he wanted to see.
But he still stood patiently.
Because the old bishop said she would come.
Sure enough, after waiting for a few more minutes, a carriage bearing the insignia of the sheriff stopped at the door of the church.
A beautiful woman jumped out of the car.
Wearing a police officer's uniform, she looked heroic, and her proud figure outlined two heart-warming arcs.
On her feet were a pair of long leather boots. Between the boot cuffs and the hem of the uniform skirt, her round legs tightly wrapped in black stockings were exposed, making people couldn't help but move their fingers.
Gallo quickly put on the sunniest and kindest smile and took the initiative to greet him.
"Lieutenant Undine, good morning."
"May the goddess protect you."
Among all the regular customers who usually come to his door, he likes Lieutenant Undine the most.
It's not because she is beautiful and has a good figure.
It's not because of the dazzling long purple hair and charming burgundy eyes.
It's because of her generosity.
Her appearance means there is meat to eat today.
Just a beautiful fat sheep that can walk.
It is both eye-pleasing and stomach-pleasing.
Of course you have to be well received.
"Good morning, Pastor Gallo, although I don't believe in your goddess, I still thank you for your blessing."
Lieutenant Undine said politely, casually brushed his long hair around his ears, and continued:
"Something happened in a baron's manor. Please come with me."
"Still follow the old rules?"
"certainly."
Gallo nodded.
"The goddess said: Don't forget your original intention and let nature take its course."
"So we never increase prices randomly."
"No, I originally thought you would give me some discounts..."
Lieutenant Undine said a little disappointed.
Gallo explained:
"Oh, I do want to give you a discount."
"But the goddess also said: All things are equal and should be treated equally."
"So I can't treat you differently."
"never mind..."
Lieutenant Undine shook his head helplessly.
"Let's talk about it after we get in the car."
The two then got into the Sheriff's carriage and drove towards Baron House's manor.
Lieutenant Undine is the kind of police officer who specializes in homicide cases.
When they handle such cases, they often need the assistance of priests.
For example, comforting the dead to avoid the appearance of resentful spirits; or checking for traces of curses and witchcraft to look for clues.
There is a fee...
Other legal professions can do this kind of thing, but priests are the cheapest.
Because the Sinless City does not restrict the spread of religion, as long as it is not a cult; at the same time, it is a commercial gathering place for many countries and races, extremely prosperous, with a large population, and convenient for preaching.
Therefore, there are many pastors from all walks of life.
The Miya sect is also the most affordable among priests.
It only costs 10 silver coins at a time.
Although not the cheapest, the young Pastor Gallo is quite professional and very smart.
I can often discover some details that others cannot see, and come up with some ideas that others would never think of.
It's the kind of tool that's very cost-effective.
One party treats the other party as a fat sheep, and the other party treats the other party as a tool. The two parties have cooperated several times and are quite familiar with each other.
"This time it's still that old friend, the Skull Crusher."
"This is already the fifth time in half a year!"
"It's still a familiar technique, forcing the victim to kneel down and repent, and then smash his head..."
"There are no witnesses, and he comes and goes without a trace as usual."
"The victim, Baron House, is a typical bastard noble. He did all kinds of evil because he had a nephew who became a mage..."
"Skullcrusher has done another great thing!"
Undine briefly introduced the case.
"Yes, yes, Skullcrusher is really powerful."
Gallo looked normal, as if the person he was talking about was just a stranger, and he casually agreed.
But in my heart I was complaining:
Since you think it's so satisfying, why are you trying so hard to catch me?
Women are indeed duplicitous creatures!
After Undine introduced the case, he continued:
"The ideas you provided last time were very useful. We followed the clues and successfully destroyed a cult den, but we still failed to catch the Skull Crusher..."
"I hope I can catch his tail this time."
Gallo sighed slightly, pretending to be helpless, and said without changing his expression:
"He is becoming more and more careful. I'm afraid it will be difficult to find anything."
"A cautious and powerful person like him will not leave any loopholes."
"But I'll try to find him!"
Undine nodded and suddenly asked inexplicably:
"What kind of person do you think he is underneath the mask?"
"Is it the deep and melancholy type? Or the cold and determined type?"
Gallo pretended to be thoughtful, hesitated for a while, and then answered:
"I think so, just a passerby, I have something to say..."
"He should be the mysterious, powerful, handsome, suave, reserved and elegant type, right?"
Undine didn't say anything and nodded repeatedly, looking like she really believed this nonsense?
Gallo continued:
"And he should be rich."
"He never touched the jewelry on the deceased, nor took any money, which shows that he is not short of money at all."
Undine kept nodding her head, secretly saying with some excitement:
Mysterious, profound, mature, elegant...
Still very rich...
What a very charming man!
Those beautiful purple eyes flickered, her pretty face was stained with a blush, and her slender legs were slightly clamped...
She had already imagined in her mind the scene of a super handsome guy, with that kind of aggressive strength, pressing himself against the wall, and then gently lifting his chin.
I don't know what kind of woman he would like...
She sighed again secretly in her heart.
Gallo noticed the change in her expression and felt a little strange.
Why is this woman blushing inexplicably as she talks?
Could it be...
What's going on every month...
Even though I feel unwell, I still try hard to catch me...
How much do you hate me?
Not long after, the carriage arrived at the manor.
There are already many police officers busy around.
The number of people is much greater than before.
Some are acquaintances who have worked together before.
But there are more that I haven't seen before.
And you can also see some guys dressed as fortune tellers.
They're either spinning around like headless flies with a pocket watch.
Or you might look up at the stars in broad daylight and be dazzled by the sun until you shed tears.
Or keep throwing the cane into the sky, and then get hit by the cane.
