after waking up.

Chapter 46 Two things on my mind
This is just one of many impoverished civilians. The male owner of the family died in the war. Only the mother and her son, who is two years away from adulthood, are left to depend on each other. They usually live hard, but bad luck has enveloped them. They are regarded as The son of the family's hope was infected with evil and almost was devoured by the evil spirit.

Although Handel was doing all the recording and closing information from beginning to end, Mulan kept observing the situation of the hostess. She was thin and old, and some of her knuckles were covered with bloody, dirty cloth strips. , In addition to potatoes, the food at home even has potato skins that were picked up.
It was just past noon when I left the residential building, but the street was still very dark. Handel went out to call a taxi in advance, and Aiwen walked in front in a happy mood, but Mulan's face was a little dignified.

"What's wrong, Mulan?"

Mulan recovered and shook his head slightly.

"There are two things I'm more concerned about, Ai Wen, is there any special record of holy objects in the church?"

"There should be, but I haven't noticed it before. I should be able to try to check the information on this. Do you have any questions?"

Ai Wen has a better understanding of Mulan's temper, never beating around the bush in front of friends, and the things he asks must be related to what he wants to do.

Hearing Ai Wen's words, Mulan was not polite.

"Help me check if there are any holy relics or special elements related to the eyes. I will also check the relevant information in Castle Black. Well, it's best to keep it secret."

"Eyes? Well, I'll find you when I have news."

Ai Wen has full trust in Mulan. Seeing that Mulan doesn't say much, he doesn't ask much. He has seen the light in Mulan's heart and knows that this is the soul that can approach the true God.

"By the way, what's the second thing you care about?"

Facing Ai Wen's question, Mulan looked back at the alley behind him, thinking back to the family, the 2 Silver Dies he left behind were only money for many people to ride the carriage twice, but for them it might be half of them. month or even month of food sources.

"The war pension that should have been given was not issued."

It can't be said that it was not paid at all. The woman told Mulan that she had received a government subsidy of 10 Yindi, but 10 Yindi was nothing!
"Are those old subordinates of mine living in desperation like this family?"

As a retired soldier who has experienced a brutal war, as a retired officer, Mulan feels a little bored at the moment. He wants to know the old men who used to rely on him and obeyed his commands unconditionally, but died on the battlefield. , how is your home now.

Walking out of this dim street, Handel was already standing beside a carriage waiting, and when he saw Mulan and Iwen coming, he quickly opened the car door.

"Master Jones, Reverend Ivan, please get in the car."

Handel has been a little excited until now. This trip is destined to be unforgettable for him. For the first time, he really saw the possibility of another world. He saw things that usually only exist in rumors and legends, the kind of beast-like terrifying. The patient, the roaring and gloomy feeling, made him understand that there are really terrible things in the world.

Mulan smiled at Handel.

"I'm afraid there will be more of this kind of thing in the future. Remember not to search for anything in private."

"At your command, Lord Jones!"

Ai Wen, who was already in the carriage, couldn't help laughing inside. Mulan was a very energetic assistant, and this kind of person was suitable to follow Mulan's side.

Mulan and Handel got into the car one after another, and the carriage began to move. This area is somewhat similar to a slum. Many ragged children were seen through the window. After driving for a while, the scenery outside the window began to look bright. of splendor showing off outside the window.

Ai Wen was praying for something the whole time, and he had a strong sense of sanctity. He said that he was about to choose a real path. The path of the church is self-contained, and it seems to be simpler than the "Book of Abundance". .

In the York Regional Police Station, in the office at the end of the corridor on the third floor, Mulan was sitting at the desk and writing constantly.

"Dear Mrs. Auburn, I am Mullan Jones, and was immediately superior officer in your husband's unit. I regret the loss of your husband. I have never forgotten his bravery. I will write to you. May I At the liberty of asking. Eagerly awaiting your reply, Mullan Jones, November 23."

After writing a letter, Mulan immediately sealed the paper, and immediately picked up the pen to start writing the second letter.

Of course, it is impossible for Mulan to know all the family information of his subordinates, but he still knows some of the more familiar ones, and even recorded them in his military notes. Write the contents of the letter first, and then go back and look up the address later.

I wrote more than a dozen letters in a row, and the content of each letter is different. Mulan can recall the stories of many soldiers, remember those key moments, and write them into the letter, which can be regarded as allowing them to Of course, the purpose of each letter is the same, to ask about the implementation of the pension.

By the time Mulan finished writing the letter, the lunch on the table was already cold. In such cold weather, if you don't eat it for ten minutes, it will have no temperature.

Mulan put down the pen and stretched, and Handel over there immediately stood up.

"Master Jones, let me help you warm up."

"No, you can eat it like this."

Writing so many letters inevitably reminded Mulan of the war-torn years, when it was a luxury to be able to eat biscuits with ice water at the most difficult time.

Of course, Handel has already finished writing the report on the case today.

The first day of work was very fulfilling. During the normal off-duty hours of the police station, Mulan and Handel also left the office. Someone in the police station took the initiative to greet them, which was a good start.

Handel didn't live in Castle Black. Mulan went home alone. Of course, he didn't go through the gloomy main entrance, but came back from the market path. Many insiders of Castle Black would also go that way.

It was a very large market, and it was full of people in the evening, but Mulan was in a hurry to go back today, so he didn't plan to stay any longer. He bought some vegetables and meat on the way and hurried back to Castle Black.

When passing a path around the lake, Mulan met an acquaintance. Dolly was sitting on a stone by the lake watching the lake in a daze, and Mulan's footsteps could not help slowing down.

"Dolly? I don't think you live by this lake, do you?"

Dolly turned to look at Mulan.

"I just want to see every lake in Castle Black, Mulan, I thought you were going to the lecture room today, what are you doing?"

The lecture room is actually a paid learning place in Castle Black. In addition to borrowing books from the library, you can also spend money or items to teach people some knowledge, but it is extremely expensive. The value of the above will only accept the order. Of course, as a newcomer, there are benefits. There is a free opportunity every month, and Castle Black officially pays the price.

"I borrowed books and received assignments."

"Mission? On the first day? It seems that they have a really high opinion of you."

Dolly dressed as masculine as always, and glanced at the dish Mulan was carrying.

"can you cook?"

"A little bit, uh, would you like to try it?"

Mulan just tried to ask, and Dolly shook her head.

Mulan smiled and continued to walk forward. When he had walked more than ten steps, Dolly suddenly spoke again behind him.

"I asked about someone who continued to have nightmares today, and the situation is very similar to yours. That um, it should be a guy called an occultist. He said that in fact, everyone who comes into contact with mystery has nightmares more or less, but If the situation is really serious to this point, then this kind of person should have already had a mental breakdown or even been swallowed up by the evil god, it is impossible for him to be alive, and he still asks where I am."

Mullandon stopped and didn't turn around. He only briefly shared with Dolly about his nightmares alone in the second half of the train, but he didn't really say much. Even so, the answer was still so serious.

"Then how did you answer?"

Dolly lay on the big rock with the back of her head in her hands.

"I said: It's true, that person has mental problems, and he doesn't know where he went."

Mulan turned around and looked in the direction of the big rock. From his angle, in addition to a hat, he could see the waterfall-like hair.

"You really don't want to try it? The food is different from this world."

The person on the stone moved obviously, but still didn't make a sound, so Mulan ignored her and went home alone.

But Mulan was not in a hurry to cook. Instead, he first dug out his own notebook, dug out the home addresses of some fallen soldiers, and then attached the addresses to the letters he wrote today.
