Chapter 126 God, Shepherd!(1/3)
When Karen opened the door, she didn't see Pu'er and Kevin.
When I walked up to the second floor, I still didn't see them, but I found that the clothes I had changed out of today in the bathroom were missing.
He walked to the rooftop and saw Kevin holding the clothes drying pole with his dog's mouth and lifting the clothes up, while Pu'er was lying on one end of the clothes line, holding the clothes hanger with his mouth and hanging the clothes up.
Karen folded her arms and watched the two pets at home doing housework hard.
After hanging the last piece, the golden retriever turned his head and saw Karen:
"Woof!"
Pu'er also saw Karen and jumped off the clothes pole.
"How to wash it?" Karen asked.
Kevin followed Pu'er's example and put his front paws in front of him and pressed them;
"Thanks for your hard work."
Karen bent down and said to them.
"Meow~"
Pu'er was a little embarrassed and ran off the rooftop first. After two hundred years of being a human and a cat, this was the first time she helped someone else wash clothes, and she helped a man!
"Woof!"
The golden retriever followed closely behind.
Karen looked at the clothes hanging on the clothesline, which were still dripping with water. Apparently they couldn't squeeze the washed clothes completely dry.
It's getting dark now. With this temperature, these clothes will probably become stiff early tomorrow morning.
However, Karen did not take off her clothes and tidy them up again, but nodded and walked off the rooftop.
For dinner, Karen cooked dumplings, which she had made a few days ago but had been kept in the refrigerator.
Three plates of dumplings, one person, one cat and one dog;
The only difference Karen made as a human being was that he mixed a plate of dipping sauce for himself.
After finishing the meal, Karen put the plates into the kitchen sink. She wanted to save them for later washing, but suddenly she thought of the plates that Pu'er broke while washing the dishes when she came back during the day.
Sighing, I washed the dishes and put them away.
After shaking his hands, Karen went to the bathroom and washed his face.
Then, instead of going back to the bedroom, he poured a glass of ice water and walked into the study. He opened the file bag he brought back from Ava's snack shop and started reading.
There are original notes in it, which should have been recorded by Mr. Pavarro while he was investigating. In the notes, there are also Mr. Pavarro's "self-talks", like a "diary". Here he will describe what Karen encountered today.
The woman at the pastry shop called me "Annie".
There is also the information "Anne" collected through the Mills Church or prostitute circle;
The process of each investigation stage and the investigation results of each stage are organized in detail and clearly.
Judging from the handwriting, it should be sorted and summarized by Anne.
Karen first skimmed over the previous part of the investigation and read the summary of each stage;
In the first stage, Mr. Pavarro, who wanted to personally find materials to make blood spirit powder for his two daughters, found that there was a clear imbalance between the import of raw materials on the market and the shipment volume of blood spirit powder on the market.
Karen took a sip of water;
For a special material like blood spirit powder, the price will not plummet due to "supply exceeds demand". The so-called "market economy" does not work here at all, because there is a direct supply relationship between the workshop and the church.
Regardless of the size of the major churches, no matter how much they ship, they can eat it and store it. Even if they can't use it all, they can directly mark the price of the coupons for circulation.
Moreover, when I think of Alfred practicing formations in Allen Manor, Allen Manor has prepared a lot of formation materials for him. If you really think of it as a luxury, these raw materials will always be in short supply.
Inquisitors of the Cult of Kosmos like to open funeral societies. One is related to the system, and the other is to facilitate observation of the "dynamics" of the city and to promptly discover those who died due to abnormal causes.
Mr. Pavarro noticed that this output imbalance in the York City area actually fell within the "scope of observation" of the inquisitor.
second stage;
Mr. Pavarro began to investigate the Raphael family, the largest supplier of blood spirit powder in the York City area, and confirmed that the source of the imbalance was here.
The third stage;
Mr. Pavarro analyzed the efficacy of Blood Spirit Powder and also studied substitutes for raw materials...
Karen took another sip of water. There was not much research in this section, because Mr. Pavarro had planned to prepare the blood spirit powder himself, so he must have done research before;
But in the end, Mr. Pavarro got confirmation from Professor Lovren of the Department of Physics of Dasko College that there was a raw material that could be a cheaper substitute for blood spirit powder, and that was menstrual blood.
Obviously, this Professor Lovren is a believer in the Principle of God.
"Every Kosmos Inquisitor knows a member of the Cult of Principia."
The figure of Mr. Hoffen appeared in Karen's mind.
This is normal, because the Principle God Religion does not have too strong a force, but it has been able to survive and develop by relying on this kind of "information" and "research" sharing;
If there is no big threat and the church likes to do research and share, which other church would target them?
Karen took out his paper and pen and wrote "Professor Lovren".
The first stage is the discovery of anomalies, the second stage is to determine the target of the anomaly for investigation, and the third stage is to find out the most likely factor of the anomaly.
After investigating here, Mr. Pavarro submitted an "abnormality report" directly to the region.
It can be said that he has fulfilled the responsibilities of a qualified inquisitor of the Cult of Kosmos.
Then,
Karen flipped through the previous notes,
Found it,
Mr Pavarro wrote:
"The district didn't give me a receipt. I was surprised. After waiting for a while, I thought the report was stuck in some process or was lost, although I also knew that this possibility was not high.
So, I submitted another 'abnormal report', but still no reply.
Then, Judge Cowandi from the next district came to visit me. He said that he heard that my two daughters needed blood spirit powder to alleviate their illnesses, so he sent me a bag of blood spirit powder. He also said that in the future,
A bag like this is delivered every month.
The Raphael family, which owns the blood spirit powder manufacturing workshop, is in the jurisdiction of Coventy.
I'm very excited,
Because I found that my guess should be correct. This was hush money, allowing me to turn a blind eye.
I'm scared,
Because how did Coventy, who is at the same level as me, see my ‘abnormal report’?
I'm very confused,
I don't know whether I should tell my dear wife about this."
Seeing this, Karen took another sip of water. He could understand Mr. Pavaro's mood at this time, and he believed that Mr. Pavaro did not tell Mrs. Lake about this, otherwise Mrs. Lake would definitely face him today.
Call this out.
Karen looked away and continued to read the stage summary, while writing "Inquisitor Cowandi" on the paper.
Mr. Pavarro must not have been bribed with hush money, otherwise there would have been no subsequent investigation phase.
In the fourth phase of the investigation, the appearance of Judge Coventy made Mr. Pavarro more confident in his judgment, so he began to focus on investigating how such a large amount of menstrual blood was collected.
(Here, Mr. Pavarro found Annie in Ava’s pastry shop and asked her to initiate a relationship to help him investigate.)
Karen frowned slightly, the summary of this stage was a bit rough, or in other words, there was no summary at this stage.
This means that this investigation is very difficult and long, and at the same time, Mr. Pavarro may have suffered pressure from other parties.
When we read the investigation notes in detail later, we should be able to know the specific details, but Karen still habitually opened Mr. Pavaro's notes, which can also be called a "diary".
"Judge Rook sent me an official letter saying that he had received a report of malfeasance in my duties.
Can I understand this as a warning to me?
A kind of warning for my investigation?
Annie's information network is indeed very powerful, and her insight and analysis skills are really amazing. She actually discovered that in recent years, the number of girls who have entered the pastry shop as illegal immigrants to make a living has been decreasing year by year.
yes,
illegal immigration,
Only this group will not be noticed or counted. Even the government does not know how many illegal immigrants land every year, nor how many of them die every year due to lack of food and medicine.
They are a forgotten people,
The funny thing is,
The only thing that remembers them is
It’s a devil’s claw.”
