"What are you afraid of? I'm just going to ask a few questions in your living room, aren't I? I won't tell anyone."
Davis asked curiously when he saw the frightened people in the room.
It was not as though he looked like a bad person!
Hearing Davis's words, the family looked at him carefully and realized that he was not joking. They were so happy that they burst into tears.
The family knew that they had met a good person, but they did not explain why they were so afraid.
After the conversation ended, Davis put the notebook away in his arms and continued to the next house.
On that occasion, it was a skinny old man.
Davis did not disturb them and left directly.
He spent the whole night doing that, but he had not finished even one-tenth of his workload.
...
He went to another house.
Davis knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.
What was going on?
He frowned and could clearly feel the activity of human life in the house.
"Open the door. I'm just an investigator from the church. Are you going to resist the will of 'God'?"
After a round of intimidation, the door finally opened.
What entered his eyes was a pale-faced middle-aged man.
His eyes were filled with fear and an underlying deep hatred. He stammered as he said to Davis, "Sir... Sir, please come in."
Davis frowned.
After entering the room, he was slightly surprised because there was a young girl in the room. She was very beautiful, but her spirit looked weak and her eyes were a little dull.
Davis quickly withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the man. He asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? What happened here?"
The two people's emotions and mental state were very abnormal. Their physical condition was good, but their mental state was extremely bad.
Moreover, it was obvious that the young girl had suffered some kind of humiliation.
Something terrible had just happened there.
However, it was a diocese where there were laws of the church and the kingdom. Such things should not have happened there, right?
Was it a challenge to the church and the kingdom?
Davis felt that if he continued to interrogate the father and daughter, the two people would definitely be sent to death.
However, if he did not investigate, he would miss out on some clues and the mission would not be completed.
There must be a secret behind this matter, and Davis felt that he had the obligation to investigate it clearly.
"Tell me, what happened before I came? Did anyone come?"
Facing Davis's question, the father and daughter's bodies trembled, and they lowered their heads without saying a word.
Obviously, they had been warned. If they dared to say anything, they would face revenge.
"You're well aware of your current problems, but you don't know who I am. I'm from the church's headquarters. The Vatican sent us here, so you can trust me."
Davis stared at the two of them. His voice was indifferent as he said, "Tell me the truth, and I can think of a way for you. I know that someone threatened you and you can't tell anyone about it. You're afraid of the repercussions. But if you don't tell me, you'll miss this opportunity and be bullied forever..."
Tears gushed out.
The psychological defense of the two was finally broken through.
"Sob, sob, I'll tell her. Don't force my father anymore."
The girl had a determined look on her face as she rushed over and grabbed Davis's sleeve. Her beautiful face was filled with tears as she said with a choked voice, "They... They just left."
Davis saw that the two of them had finally begun to answer and put on a gentle smile. He patted her shoulder in comfort and asked gently, "Don't cry. Tell me, who are they?"
The young man gradually stopped his tears and said with a strong expression, "It's the mayor and the people in the town's Church. They forced every family to pay, and those who didn't have money paid.
"But the people who went never came back. and later, when no one went, they personally came to capture people. When they saw beautiful girls, they even... There aren't many people in the village now..."
Halfway through her words, the girl began to cry again.
What a bunch of scum!
Scum with no bottom line!
A red light flashed in Davis's eyes.
The highest administrator in every town was the mayor, and the power of the mayor was very great.
Moreover, what made Davis even angrier was that there were people from the church doing such things together.
However, before he descended to Earth, Gabriel and the other seraphim had repeatedly told him that he must not interfere with the church and politics in the human world.
The work of the pope and the angels was different. The pope was a seraph from the side of 'God' who descended to Earth to manage the church on behalf of 'God'.
In other words, this matter was not within his jurisdiction. The purpose of his descent this time was to investigate the traces of the devil, and he did not have any authority to do anything other than blessing them.
How should he handle this matter?
He had already promised the father and daughter that he would definitely take care of this matter. Moreover, the human mind in his heart kept telling him to uphold justice.
Should he turn a blind eye to it? Or should he stop these scumbags who had no bottom line?
A hint of hesitation flashed in Davis's eyes.
However, a corner of his heart was tugged when he looked at the father and daughter's tearful appearance.
These impoverished people were already very miserable and the other guys were still bullying them.
Giving money ws not enough. They even wanted to take away a person's innocence and life. Moreover, those missing people probably had some connection with the target this time.
Even if there was no connection, Davis would forcefully establish a connection during his final report.
This matter had already crossed Davis's bottom line. The education he received in his previous life prevented him from having the slightest bit of concession and hesitation.
"Rest well. I'll handle this matter."
Davis stood up and said faintly to the two of them.
Then, he turned around and left the house under the shocked gazes of the two people.
...
"You actually dared to do such a thing in front of me." The corners of Davis's mouth curled into a sinister smile, and his eyes narrowed. "It's like you're riding on my head and taking a dump. Good, very good. I've been in this world for so long, but this is the first time I've been provoked."
Davis took a deep breath and calmed his raging emotions. He made preparations to deal with everything immediately.
