Chapter 19 Roget's Story
Wayne stood up and walked to the window to look out. If he didn't find something beautiful to divert his attention, he was afraid that he would be immersed in those misfortunes.
"It turns out it's so close..."
The Dumitru neighborhood is not far from the center of the city-state. From his office, he can clearly see the Krims Cathedral not far away.
It can be seen that many people wearing the costumes of Dawn Church believers are heading towards the church. Everyone's face is filled with smiles, bright and beautiful.
In the corner of the block not far away, more people gathered in twos and threes.
Gentlemen in formal suits walked side by side with ladies in gorgeous dresses, chatting and laughing as they walked into various stores.
With his heightened senses, Wei En could still vaguely hear what they were discussing, including clothing, food, city-state decrees... and
more about the holy priests who had been sent down by the church at dawn yesterday, and the lucky one. The holy ones.
"I finally understand why so many people have become believers of the Dawn Church."
In such a dangerous world, extraordinary people have a certain ability to protect themselves and have the ability to make choices.
But it would be difficult for these ordinary people, especially those who are impoverished, to persevere without sustenance in their hearts.
To a certain extent, whether it is the Church of Dawn, the Church of Storms, or other churches, it is the hope for these people's survival.
Even if these churches don't necessarily bring them good luck...

"Hey, Wei En, are you here already?"
Hearing the voice, Wei En turned around and glanced at the clock - eleven o'clock sharp!
"I just arrived not long ago."
"I should have told you that the secret blending department's working hours are eleven o'clock, right?"
Wei En nodded calmly, "Yes."
Having just experienced a miserable baptism, he really didn't want to waste time arguing about whether he had mentioned working hours.
"That's good."
Lacey put down the suitcase in her hand, looked at him and smiled: "Wayne, I have to say that this dress suits you very well." "
Thank you." "
How do you like it? Let me show you those files. Have you passed?"
When Wei En saw her placing her eyes on the files on the table, he smiled and said, "I have seen it. The captain has performed very admirably in these cases." "Yes, really
? ? How can I be as good as you said, hahaha..."
Huh?
Did I say the word "excellent"?
And even if he hears compliments, he shouldn't smile so exaggeratedly... It seems like he should get used to it.
In fact, he is lucky to have a colleague who is straightforward and unpretentious.
While Wei En secretly sighed at how easy it was to get along with the captain, he packed up the files and put them on her desk.
"I saw the photos in the cabinet over there. Are they all my colleagues?" "
That, yes."
Lacey put the file away and replied casually without looking back: "Except for one An old guy who has retired, everyone is here."
"That's it."
"Do you think they all look reliable?"
"No,"
Wei En said, but felt it was inappropriate, and continued: "No, I I mean they are indeed reliable. I was just surprised that Roget looked so handsome when he smiled, but yesterday he was so..."
"Cold?" Lacey added.
"Absolutely..."
Lacey looked up at him and said seriously: "You don't have to feel embarrassed for saying it so bluntly. The reason why Roget is like this is because he asked for it."
Is there something unexpected going on here?
Wayne didn't speak, but waited for her next words.
"In fact, he is leaving today."
"Huh?"
"His spirit is contaminated. Here," Lacey pointed to her head, "the brain is broken!"
Wei En looked at her in surprise. Know? !
He was still debating whether to reveal this information last night, but he didn't expect that it would be an open secret.
"How did he, Roget, become mentally polluted?"
"That's why he doesn't deserve sympathy." Lacey's expression was complicated, showing both helplessness and anger. "He fell in love with a 'fallen'."
Wei En's mouth opened wide, "Degenerate? Fall in love?"
He thought he would hear an inspirational story about selling his soul in pursuit of power, but he didn't expect this to be a love tragedy?
"I can tell you this matter, but you have to promise, no, you have to swear not to tell anyone outside the investigation department."
Wei En nodded quickly, "Yeah, yeah, I swear!"
Eat melons or whatever, no matter where you are The world cannot resist it.
"Hey," Lacey sighed: "At the same time, I also hope that you won't become like him. To be honest, this is really a tragedy..." "
Rogert is only 23 years old this year, and he came to the investigation. The department has just turned three years old. I still remember how he looked when he first came here. He was sunny and handsome, and he was very good at shooting..."
As she told the story, Wai En finally understood the reason why Roget became like this.
It turned out that in the first two years, Roget was still the captain's partner, and the two of them worked together with the retired Jack.
But in the third year, last year, because Roget wanted to surpass Lacey in terms of grades, he began to investigate the case alone.
In an accidental case, he met a young girl.
According to Lacey, the girl was very average-looking, and she even compared herself to her.
He said that the girl had an average figure, a round face with a few freckles, and was two years older than Roget...
Wayne looked at the two hanging clocks in front of her and agreed, it is indeed difficult for women to Her body is comparable to Lacey's.
But it was such an ordinary girl who attracted Roget's attention, or to be precise, his admiration.
Every day after get off work, he would take a long detour to create a chance encounter with the girl. I also bring some gadgets as gifts, and sometimes some delicious food.
It didn't take long for the two to fall in love and start a formal relationship.
Of course, Lacey's original words were: "These are all scams by the degenerate. She deceived an upright, brave and promising investigator!"
Although her tone of voice was filled with resentment, Wayne still heard her. Sadness for Roget's mental contamination.
At the beginning, the relationship between the two was full of joy, happiness and beauty.
The only fly in the ointment is that the girl's family does not approve of the relationship between the two, and even obstructs it in every possible way.
When Wayne expressed his incomprehension, Lacey replied in an understatement: "Usually, this is how ordinary people have the impression of investigators. When faced with misfortunes, they bring ominousness." I don't know how she felt when she said this. Anyway
, Wei En was shocked.
It turns out that from the perspective of ordinary people, this is what the investigator looks like!
Back to Roget... neither of them gave up after that.
Especially Roget, who fell in love, worked hard to complete the mission of the Secret Service, hoping to impress the girl's family with a promotion.
But...
one night, Roget missed her so much that he took the risk to visit the girl's residence.
He left in a hurry, carrying only an ordinary lantern sold by the Dawn Church.
It was on that day that Roget saw a terrible scene.
That girl, who looked ordinary and had a gentle personality, turned into a devil in the night when he spied on her.
He brutally murdered everyone in the family, including his parents and his younger sister who was less than two years old.
"Rogert, look...no one will stop us anymore."
