Chapter 52 Time Point The thing that came out of the mouth of the deputy parish priest Michel Garrigu was slightly slender, covered with brown-green scales, like a transparent and blurry lizard. As soon as it left Michelle's body, its dark green vertical eyes turned left and right, looking around, appearing very alert. During this process, it even looked out the window, but did not find the "white paper". Instead, Lumian and Aurore felt the coldness and indifference in its eyes. "What is this?" Lumian asked. Aurore shook her head. "I don't know, it seems like a special spirit." Lumian immediately made a judgment: "It doesn't look like a good thing!" Even though there was "white paper" and a mirror between them, the lizard-like creature still made him feel uncomfortable, and his hair stood up. Aurore glanced at him and reminded him: "This 'lizard' seems to have a certain amount of mental pollution. Just looking at it from a distance will make people feel physically and mentally uncomfortable. Staring at it for too long may even cause mental problems. You have to be careful. If you feel uncomfortable, close your eyes immediately, try to meditate, and wait a while before looking again." "It's fine for now." Lumian said, "What about you? Don't you feel uncomfortable?"
Aurore smiled: "As a 'secret peeper', I have seen things that are more contaminating than this, and my resistance to them is much higher than yours. "Besides, I get crazy sometimes, so it doesn't seem to matter if I go a little crazier or more often." "I think it's necessary to check your mental state when you said the latter sentence." Lumian said half-concernedly and half-jokingly. Aurore laughed: “It’s called self-deprecation. "Sometimes, I can't just not look at it if I want to. The special features of the Secret Peeper's eyes can't be completely sealed. I can only try to prevent it from affecting my daily life." As the siblings were talking, the vague "lizard"-like creature crawled along the walls and floors all the way to the bottom floor of the house at an extremely fast speed. On the wall facing the main entrance on the first floor hang several animal skulls, which are from wolves, deer and wild boars. The assistant parish priest, Michel Garrigou, was not a native of Cordu and was supposed to live directly in the church, but was refused by Guillaume Bennet with an excuse, so he could only rent a house from the hunter Sabaté. The "lizard" burrowed into the wolf's skull, moving in and out of the holes. Soon, it moved to the wild boar's skull and continued to do the same thing. After coming out of the deer's pale skull, the "lizard" crawled out of the house at a speed several times faster than a horse, while the "white paper" quietly floated in the night air, following it. The "lizard" crawled all the way out of the village and finally arrived at the square. It bypassed the church, came to the cemetery, and dived into a grave. Ten seconds later, it crawled out and entered another grave with a tombstone. In this way, the strange "lizard"-like creature moved around in different tombs, and Lumian could even imagine it entering and exiting different human skulls in the coffins. Such a scene gave Lumian goosebumps all over his skin. He couldn't help but ask: "What is this guy doing?" Unable to understand! Aurore shook her head slowly: “This is in my blind spot of knowledge.” After "touring" the cemetery, the "lizard"-like transparent creature returned along the same route and entered the room of the deputy parish priest Michel Garrigu.
After rubbing twice, it went into Michelle's mouth again and disappeared. After twenty or thirty seconds, Michel Garrigu opened his eyes, sat up, and drank water from the cup on the bedside table, looking extremely thirsty. He put down the cup, wiped his mouth, and fell down to continue sleeping. Aurore turned her head and looked at Lumian. "Well, he does have some problems, right?" "This is not just a small problem, this is a huge problem!" Lumian did not hide his emotions in front of his sister. "Pierre Berry who herds humans, the parish priest who is the key point of the time loop, Madame Puaris who makes men give birth, Naroka who went to the other side of the world, the owl who has lived for who knows how many years, plus the deputy parish priest who has a 'lizard' living in his body, aren't there too many outstanding talents in Cordu Village?" In the previous cycle, he complained that the three official investigators, Ryan, Leah, and Valentine, did not play any role. Now that he thought about it, how could he blame them? The abnormality in Cordu Village was really unusual! They may have done something, but the outcome was probably not good. Aurore glanced at her brother and said half in a warning and half in a teasing tone: “You haven’t mentioned the best talent yet. "The only person in the village who can keep his memories in the loop and has a unique dream ruin." “…” Lumian was speechless for a moment, only feeling a headache. Aurore turned her head and looked at the mirror on the table. She thought for a moment and said: "There shouldn't be any other changes with the parish priest. Although I want to take a closer look at the state of his 'Astral Body', it is possible that this may be quite dangerous. "It's okay if I get into trouble because of this. The next cycle will be a living 'wizard' again. But we still lack a lot of intelligence. It's better to wait until we have collected enough information before doing further investigation, so as to avoid restarting the cycle early and wasting time on explanations and communication." Lumian had no objection, this was also his idea. Aurore then said: "I intend to let Blank Paper observe the curé now." "..." Lumian was stunned for a second. "Didn't you just say that you won't investigate too deeply or detonate anomalies in advance?" The parish priest is the key among keys, the problem among problems, so how can we just ignore it like this? Aurore glanced at him with a smile: "I am sure there will be no problems if I do this." Seeing that Lumian was confused and worried, she explained in detail: "You said it yourself. On April 4st in the last cycle, you overheard the private conversation between the parish priest and Pons Bene. At that time, the parish priest said that he was still an ordinary person, but if I, a Beyonder, dealt with him, he would have a way to deal with it. "Considering the relevant scenario, and considering that there was no point in deceiving an ordinary person at that time, and that he would have exploded with an abnormality, I tend to believe that the parish priest was really just an ordinary human being before April 4st, and had not yet obtained extraordinary abilities. Today is March 1th, and it is not even midnight yet, so there shouldn't be any problem in spying on him." “That’s right.” Lumian felt relieved. Aurore continued: "From the conversation between the parish priest and Pons Bene, we can infer that on April 4, he may have mastered a method to quickly acquire extraordinary abilities. Once he finds that something is wrong, he can immediately become a 'Beyond Person'. Of course, maybe he can just use a certain item and think he can deal with me. "Combined with the strength displayed by the parish priest during the Lenten celebration, which is completely unlike that of a Sequence 9, I suspect that he is taking the path outside the Path of God that the mysterious lady mentioned, that is, praying to a certain being in the hope of receiving a blessing. Otherwise, his strength would not have changed so much in just a few days, and there would not be obvious signs of losing control." Lumian listened quietly, and suddenly remembered something: "In that cycle, on the morning of Lent, I had just become a 'Hunter' and met Pons Bene. I wanted to beat him up to practice my skills, but he just ran away as if he knew in advance that I would become a Beyonder. "Perhaps, he has also obtained some kind of gift and can smell the breath of danger..." As he spoke, Lumian added another key point: "It was probably on April 4, during Naroka's funeral, I secretly saw Pons Bene enter her house from a distance.
"If Pons Bene had been gifted, with the sensitivity he showed on the morning of Lent, he would not have failed to notice the prying of an ordinary person like me." Aurore nodded. "That is to say, the parish priest and his group most likely became extraordinary people between the two days after Naroka's funeral and Lent." That is, from the afternoon of April 4rd to the early morning of April 3th. "Of course, the possibility of receiving the gift in batches cannot be ruled out." Aurore added. After this discussion, the thread of events became somewhat clearer. Lumian slapped his head suddenly and said "ouch". "What's wrong?" Aurore asked in confusion. Lumian praised sincerely: "I really should have discussed these things with you earlier. Your analytical skills are much better than mine!" Aurore chuckled: "You always find ways to praise me. You don't have enough experience or knowledge, so you didn't think of it the first time. You will find these details slowly." Although she said she was disappointed with her brother's praise, her expression showed that she enjoyed it. Receiving Aurore's thoughts, "White Paper" flew towards the Bene family. In the entire village of Cordu, apart from the church and the administrator's residence converted from the castle, the one built by the Bene family is the tallest and most luxurious. It was a gray-blue three-story house with a chimney rising from the top. As the head of the Bennet family, the parish priest Guillaume lived in the east-facing room on the top floor. At this moment, the dark grey curtains were tightly closed, and the owner seemed to have fallen asleep. This did not pose a problem for the "white paper". It passed through the wall and blended into the darkness in the corner. In the room, Guillaume Bennet, who had had an affair with Madame Puaris, had returned home long ago. He changed into silk light blue pajamas and pants and was sitting in an armchair, staring quietly and almost in a daze at the curtains in front of the window. Aurore's eyes became even darker, and Guillaume Bennet's aura was revealed. The red, green, purple and blue colors made Lumian dizzy. Recalling what his sister had taught him, he tried to discern and discovered that apart from his hypersexuality, the priest was in relatively good health. "What is he thinking about? Which mistress will he date tomorrow?" Although the priest couldn't hear him, Lumian still made a sarcastic remark. At this moment, Guillaume Bene stood up, punched the air in front of him, and said angrily: "It's all your fault!" (End of this chapter)
