After leaving the cathedral and returning to the carriage, Wayne briefly told Lina what had just happened. I heard Roose Bolton ask if the church could help him arrange accommodation. Lina's first reaction was to shake her head vigorously: "I would rather be attacked by that murderer than live on church property." Okay. But it seems that everyone has already anticipated that the murderer might attack Wayne and his group next. Wayne thought so too. So he was not in a hurry to ask Roose Bolton to return the luggage he had deposited with him. Inesa hesitated for a moment and said, "Wayne, your unwillingness to accept the protection of the church is just Lina and I's personal opinion. This matter may be risky. You don't have to care about our opinions and only consider your own safety and wishes."
Wayne asked back, "So if the murderer came to attack, you planned to ambush him?" "Of course. If he really comes." Inissa nodded. "I joined the Hunter Association because I wanted to help fight the evil Beyonders. Although Roose Bolton and his men don't seem to be interested in the murderer, since I'm already involved in this matter, I'm still willing to continue investigating the murderer." Inesa thought for a moment and added, "At least when the murderer might actively attack, he won't deliberately avoid it." Wayne shrugged. "But the murderer is only 'possible' to come at the moment, but it's not certain in reality." "But the possibility is not too low," Inissa said, "The group didn't pursue us last night, and the previous victims were all killed in Kanks City. I think they may have some special way to track or lock on to their targets." Wayne raised an eyebrow, "Then I want to join in, too." Anyway, I'm here. When it comes to murder, even if you want to close the case in a small town, there must be a murderer. Not to mention life or death, At least you have to know a name before you can put up a wanted warrant. … Considering that if the murderer really came to attack, it might "disturb the public\ ,"So Wayne and his friends did not continue to stay in the previous hotel, but instead took their light luggage and went to find the old man from the Hunter Association. Lina didn't seem to want to get close to the Hunter Association. So she did not follow them into the alley where the pawn shop that looked like it might go bankrupt at any time was located, but just found a place nearby to guard the carriage. After showing each other the emblems, Inissa briefly explained the matter and then told the old man her needs: "I need a self-contained place that's a little off the beaten path and near a state line. Can you help me find it?" The old man thought for a moment and said, "I know a suitable place. It costs $5 for a rental period of no more than one month, and the cost of repairs is already included."
Inissa silently took out the money and said, "I also need some hunting tools." "Welcome, the price is guaranteed to be fair. But you don't need to pay me the rent, just pay it directly to the landlord when the time comes." The old man stood up and was about to take Inessa to the inner room: "I don't know how you did it, but if the murderer is really targeting you, do you mind if we tell the other companions in the city who are interested in the murderer?" "No problem. The prey can belong to whoever hunts it, provided they don't do anything bad." As Inissa spoke, she walked towards the side door outside. Wayne didn't follow him in. He had already taken a rough look at the "goods" he could buy here. Apart from the limited special demon-hunting bullets, he either didn't like the other things or didn't know how to use them. So Wayne stayed in the outer room of the pawn shop, casually looking at the items on display. When Inesa and the old man came back, he came over with a wooden guitar in a case. "Do you want to learn a musical instrument?" Inessa asked. "No," Wayne shook his head. "Don't you think that if the inside of this box is slightly modified, it would be perfect for holding your bolt-action rifle? That way you can carry it with you in the city." Inissa seemed a little moved, and turned to look at the old man, "How much is this?" "This is a guitar used by a famous wandering singer. It's $20." The old man paused and said, "But if you just want this box, I can give it to you for free." So when Wayne and the others left, Inissa was wearing a blue dress, carrying a guitar case, and a wide-brimmed cowboy hat on her head - it was a gift from the old man, who said that this combination looked very suitable - and it seemed that all she needed was a tragic story to debut through a talent show. … Carrying the key, I went to the place the old man mentioned. It turned out to be a relatively secluded cabin. When I opened the door, I didn't expect there was someone inside. Still an acquaintance. Willy, whom I had met once before, was now sitting at the dining table in the living room, eating whole wheat bread with his soup. ——It is a kind of bread made from whole wheat flour without removing the bran and germ. It is brown and not sweet. It is better than the legendary "black bread" in the Old World that is deliberately mixed with sawdust, bran and other things. At least it is a qualified food, but as a daily staple food, it is not much better. Willy was stunned for a moment, then noticed that Wayne and the others opened the door with a key, so he quickly stood up, sounding a little embarrassed: "Were you introduced to use the house? According to the rules, it's $5 a month, and there's no need to pay extra for maintenance." Wayne was a little surprised, "Is this your home?" "Yeah." Willy nodded, "I usually live here."
"You rent out the house you live in for people to use for fighting?" Wayne was shocked. "I don't have anything valuable here, and repairing it will only require physical effort." Willy seemed even more embarrassed when he said this, and scratched his hair: "Although my abilities are not strong, I still yearn for the world of Extraordinary People, so I am actually willing to participate and cooperate in some things... This way I can also learn more about things in the Extraordinary World." For example, running up to a stranger and showing off your abilities to warn him or her? "It might be dangerous." Wayne sighed slightly. Willy nodded repeatedly: "I know, so I don't dare to get involved in anything too dangerous. The main thing is to cooperate. I can also earn some rewards by the way." Then he said this, and couldn't help but take another look at the food he had just eaten, "Do I need to leave now?" "For your own safety, you'd better get away from us as soon as possible and find a safe place to stay in the next few days." Wayne thought for a moment and said, "But if you want to take it away or finish it, that's up to you." Willy took the money handed to him by Inesa, but finally chose to continue eating. While eating, he couldn't help but ask carefully: "Although I may not be able to help much, is there anything I can do for you? I'm willing to serve."
