American Variety: Scientific Exorcism

The clip of only a few seconds can't explain much, but Yorkshire combined with the feeling this girl brought to him, as well as the residual scars on her body.

This memory gave Yorks the feeling that girls were being abused when they were ten years old, or from infancy to ten years old.

The most likely possibility is a later guess, because there is a hole in the middle of the stool, which is obviously for girls to urinate and defecate.

Coupled with the bowl that looks like a dog bowl next to it, this girl may have been abused since she was a baby until she was about ten years old.

Thinking of this, Yorks subconsciously let go of the restrictions of the three-dimensional diagram and spread it to the maximum in an instant.

When everything around him was absorbed in his eyes, he immediately found the girl.

The shrinking, somewhat frightened figure made him feel a kind of compassion in his heart.

Of course, the girl obviously escaped successfully, so he couldn't do anything but try to find a way to talk to her and try to alleviate the pain and pain in her heart.

However, a discovery made him feel something was wrong.

Because when the girl was walking, someone was following her. Following was not stalking, but more like surveillance.

Surveillance that does not affect the girl's life.

Similar to the monitoring of sacrifices by the Sacrifice Administration in the world of Chaos, this kind of thing is just watched from the side and it is difficult for people to notice.

But in York's stereogram, this surveillance is clearly visible.

Looking at the man standing on the street, just drinking a cup of coffee, but actually staring at the girl, Yorks narrowed his eyes habitually.

In just about half a month, he seems to have found something to do again. I wonder if this kind of thing can trigger random tasks.

It happened that at this time, Erin came over after communicating with a believer.

"Eileen." Yorks said calmly.

Eileen stopped immediately and looked at her bishop.

"Go check on the girl who left." Yorks said calmly.

"I need to know who she is and what happened to her."

Just in time, Hannah went out to do some business. In order not to affect Hannah and to make Hannah change, Yorks decided to use the power of the church this time.

Speaking of which, it is really simple to investigate such a thing for a giant like the church.

Although it is just a church, it has countless tentacles under it. Just like the Continental Hotel in John Wick, which has various institutions and types of work to provide related services to killers, the church also has...

Hearing this, Eileen also thought of the little figure who just ran out. Without any words, she just lowered her head slightly and said.

"Yes, Bishop."

Yorks turned and left.

Not long after, Irene appeared in front of him again, already holding a piece of information in her hand. Interestingly, there was a newspaper on it. It seemed that this girl might have been quite popular back then.

"Bishop, this is about Lucy." Irene said, seeing the expression on her bishop's face, she continued.

"That girl's name is Lucy Rios."

Yorkes didn't speak, but just stretched out his hand to take Lucy's information.

The first thing I saw was a newspaper. On the front page was the girl's appearance when she was ten years old, exactly the same as when she was abused.

"It seems that he escaped during that time."

York's eyes continued to move. Next to it was the relevant description, and after the description, there were related photos.

The more he looked at it, the more he could see where the pain in the girl's eyes came from.

"."

[Factory room and related pictures]: “The girl is surviving here, and what is certain is that she was not raped.

It is inferred that she was subjected to common torture that made my scalp numb, resulting in malnutrition, dehydration, and hypothermia.

The hole in the chair allows her to stay in place. Wrist scars show being chained"

"."

The newspaper summarized it in one paragraph, saying that Lucy seemed to have been kidnapped by someone when she was ten years old, imprisoned in a factory that had been abandoned for many years, and suffered inhuman abuse.

But one thing worth mentioning is that no one knew how she escaped. When the police arrived at the factory, the building was already empty. The traces left at the scene were of little use value, so the case was shelved. , until now.

Lucy may have been abused, and the stimulation caused her to close her heart and make her memory confused. She didn't know who her family was or what their names were.

So Lucy was sent to an orphanage.

This is the information Yorkshire can find in the newspaper.

Taking off the newspaper, Yorks continued to read the next one, which was about information about the orphanage. It was all about Lucy.

It's very ordinary, but it can let Yorkist know the general situation of Lucy.

When the girl was sent to the orphanage, she chose to close herself off and refused to be approached by anyone, including doctors and other related people.

But one thing is special. Even if a girl is like this, she still has such an inseparable good friend.

This good friend's name is Anna. She uses her thoughtfulness towards Lucy to gradually get into Lucy's psychology. This surprises the adults in the orphanage. It is also because of Anna's presence that the doctors can carry out a thorough treatment on Lucy. A series of treatments and reassurances, but sadly none of them had any effect.

Lucy still refused to be approached by anyone except Anna.

"No wonder, with just one glance, the person ran away." Yorks recalled what happened before.

Although this girl named Lucy was sitting peacefully in a dark corner, she was actually staring at him all the time.

Yorks didn't know what this was about, but based on the believers' feelings about him, he probably found a way to alleviate the pain in him.

After all, even if he blocked everything, the holy power in his body would still affect every aspect of his body, which undoubtedly caused a considerable change in his temperament.

Yorks didn't know how others would feel when they looked at him, but there was one feeling he couldn't escape, and that was feeling calm.

"That's probably true, that's right."

Guessing Lucy's feelings for him, Yorks had already read the information about the orphanage, continued to take it away, and then looked at the next one.

According to what he discovered, if Lucy could escape from those four chains, there might be another party or someone who abused her deliberately.

Otherwise, how could a ten-year-old girl escape from those four chains? Let alone a girl, even a strong adult would not have a chance.

The third part is what happened after Lucy came out of the orphanage.

She still only interacted with Anna, but she also received careful treatment in the orphanage and was able to work on her own, washing dishes in a restaurant or helping in the kitchen. Until now, she has persisted for ten years.

She lived not far from the Ahibiyi Church, only a few hundred meters away, which happened to be outside the scope of his three-dimensional map.

After roughly understanding what happened to Lucy after she came out of the orphanage, Yorks took the third copy and continued to look at the next one.

This time it's the main event.

This is another newspaper, and the black and white photos show a very nice family.

A pair of parents, a son and a daughter.

The boy looks bigger, like a high school student, while the girl in the center is smaller, looking like a junior high school student, but she is holding a trophy in her hand and a bright smile on her face.

This is a newspaper reporting that a junior high school student won the butterfly swimming championship.

Yorks looked up at Erin.

"Lucy bought a hundred copies of the same newspaper in different places." Irene said.

"I thought there was definitely something wrong with this family, so I checked and sure enough, there was something wrong."

Yorks remained silent and continued to read the next document.

This is information about this family. The boy is about to enter a prestigious university. His father is the owner of a small company, and his mother is a designer. The girl has shown talent in butterfly swimming, and people are paying attention to her and think she will become famous in sports.

If it were normal, this would be a very perfect family, with both children and a daughter, not worried about money, and a harmonious and happy family.

However, from the things found out below, there seems to be something shocking about this family.

Several children disappeared near this family. The police had suspicions, but there was no evidence.

Thinking of Lucy buying a hundred newspapers from different places, Yorks said calmly.

"Keep an eye on her, I want to know what she plans to do."

Erin nodded in agreement.

But nothing more was found. Yorks thought of the man on the street, but made no arrangements.

He was afraid of alerting others. That man might be the other party, and he might be the mastermind behind letting Lucy go. Although he didn't know what the purpose of this party was, it was definitely not a good thing.

This side is more likely to be an organization with a series of systems, otherwise it will not be so professional, reminding him of the Sacrifice Administration in the world of Chaos.

Just when Yorks thought of this, he was slightly startled by the sound in his ears.

Because I thought a little deeper, I actually triggered a random mission that hadn't been triggered for a long time.

[…]

[Conditions met: trigger random mission, evil under the blue sky and white sun]

[Mission requirement: Destroy the evil organization]

[Task reward: +5 attribute points]

[Accept/Reject]

[…]

Five attribute points were awarded, a very standard reward that reminded Yorkist of the time at Pluto Church.

"Sure enough, chaotic areas have a higher chance of triggering random missions."

Yorks looked at the virtual window that popped up in front of him and silently accepted it.

Now five points of available attribute points are quite a lot. When he has not triggered a random mission for a long time, every bit is quite precious. Although he has the support of a world and is strong enough to fight with angels, it cannot change his nature after all. .

What he wants is self-immortality.

Although with the current level of cell activity, there is no problem in living for hundreds or even thousands of years, it is still far from enough.

"Fortunately, I didn't miss any opportunity."

Listening to the sound in his ear that the mission was successfully accepted, Yorks said in his heart.

"Otherwise you'll miss it."

But then, he looked directly at the prompt given to him in the task window.

"It is indeed an organization. What do they want to do after all this time staring at Lucy?"

Yorks couldn't help but think about it, and finally chose to use Lucy as bait to fish out this so-called organization.

After all, it would be too risky to alert the enemy in the first place. It would be bad if a few of them ran away and the mission failed.

The church is very powerful, but it is not omnipotent. It does not mean that if you catch the person under surveillance, you can directly catch the entire organization.

"Surveillance is just a piece of shit after all. You can only start if you are sure to catch someone who can contact the top."

Thinking of this, Yorkist continued: "Eileen, send someone to protect Lucy and see what she is going to do. Don't let anyone find out, because there is another party watching her."

Erin blinked her eyes and didn't understand why this matter involved a third party again, and she didn't understand why the bishop paid so much attention to this matter and Lucy, but she nodded.

"Yes, Bishop, I will go down and make arrangements."

"Yeah." Yorks waved his hand.

Erin bowed her head slightly and left.

"The mantis hunts the cicada, the oriole is behind, and I am the hunter who has already targeted the oriole."

The corner of York's mouth raised slightly. In the West, in a world with gods and demons, there is no other organization that is older and more powerful than the church.

He doesn't care at all who is standing behind this organization. With his current strength, he can just crush them with one sentence.

"Of course, we have to spend some effort to find out everyone in this evil organization. We just need to catch one person who can connect to the top level, so that we can follow the clues and kill them one after another."

Yorks looked down at the unfinished information.

——

With her body tightened, her hands in her pockets, her hat paired with a hoodie, and a mask, Lucy exuded an aura that kept strangers away, as if she would suddenly be aroused if anyone touched her. Open your fangs.

Therefore, the young people gathered on the street ignored Lucy, just cast a look, and then looked at each other.

"She is a crazy woman." One of the young people who seemed to know Lucy and had tattoos all over his hands said,

"Once someone accidentally touched her, this crazy woman bit off the other person's ear with a crazy look on her face, as if she didn't want her life.

Like a ghost. "

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people shrugged and ignored the figure disappearing into the street.

No one would mess with a madman, not even the bottom of the gang thought the same way.

Lucy didn't know, she just ran all the way back to the house she rented.

But subconsciously, she thought of the priest who received everyone in the church, and her breathing was a little heavy.

This was the first time she felt a very comfortable tranquility.

It seemed that in that church, she could get an extremely strong sense of security.

It was so intense that the woman never appeared in front of her again.

But she only felt this way when the priest was around, so she knew what it was about.

Lucy thought of the priest's eyes looking over her, took a deep breath, then came to the rented house and opened the door with the key.

Compared with others, his movements seem a bit hasty.

Click, when the door is opened.

Lucy walked in. Since all the windows inside were covered with curtains, the light was blocked and the whole room was a little dark.

At this moment, Lucy's face showed a look of horror. In front of her, she saw a woman in white clothes crawling on the ground on all fours.

Her long hair was disheveled, her face could not be seen clearly, her crawling posture was very strange, and her whole body was covered in dirt.

"I'll take action!"

Lucy was so frightened that she shouted.

"I will definitely take action to avenge you and me!"

But after saying this, Lucy found that the woman in white who tortured her every day had not left yet, and kept approaching in a weird crawling posture. Her face already had a look of fear and tears.

She retreated subconsciously, but she couldn't retreat anymore when she was at the door. The distance between the two parties was gradually closing, and the atmosphere seemed a bit scary in the dim space. But then Lucy thought of something and hurriedly took out a cross from her pocket. , stretched out his hand and pointed at the woman in white in front of him, and turned his head.

“Look, look what this is, this is something I bought from that church!

roll! ! Get out of here! Get out! Get out! ! ! ! ! ! "

Lucy cowered into a ball, shivered, and leaned against the door covered in sweat, shouting.
