Chapter 12 Saint Lan Monastery 12
To prevent others from noticing her unusual behavior, Wen Qi quickly put the information away.
We've just arrived at the monastery and don't yet know what's going on with Building No. 2.
Alone and helpless, I must proceed with caution.
She went to the restroom, pretending to have just returned from the restaurant and used the toilet, then quickly took the elevator to room 404 to return the clothes as soon as possible.
However, as soon as Wen Qi entered the elevator, she encountered three people, one of whom was wearing a red monk's robe.
The other two, one of whom was wearing a green cloak, differed from the monk's robe in that the monk's robe was a whole coat, while the cloak was a separate outer robe, and the person's face was not visible.
Another person dressed in a black priest's robe was smiling obsequiously. Wen Qi noticed a badge on his chest that belonged only to the dean.
This was the first time Wen Qi had ever seen a person in a cloak. She remembered that the rules stated that one should not speak to people wearing cloaks.
The three people didn't greet her and were chatting amongst themselves, which made it easier for Wen Qi to continue her disguise.
The monk in the red robes said excitedly, "The equipment is ready, and the knife is sharpened. This isn't my first time killing and selling on the spot. We can start harvesting anytime soon."
“Yes, he is very experienced,” the dean echoed. “As soon as you process the payment, we can start immediately. This age group is the most suitable, and no family members will come looking for them.”
The cloaked figure nodded in satisfaction, his voice brimming with interest, "I want to choose the parts myself; next time I'll definitely be even stronger."
Before long, the elevator reached the third floor. The three of them got off, and Wen Qi, sweating profusely, remained silent.
She overheard their conversation, and as the elevator doors slowly closed, she immediately collapsed inside, her legs giving way.
When the elevator reached the fourth floor, Wen Qi quickly returned to 404 and then helped the nun put on the black monk's robe.
As for Daniel's white monk's robes, they still need to be used for one more simulation.
We must obtain a new set of monk's and priest's robes as soon as possible in order to better investigate the strange occurrences.
...
Real world
When Wen Qi encountered the dean and his two companions in the elevator, everyone in the Dragon Kingdom held their breath in worry for her.
"If I were in that situation, I would probably be trembling all over and give myself away, even though I was wearing a hat and my face was not visible."
"Sister 7 is quite brave for a girl. If I heard words like 'killing and selling on the spot' or 'the knife is sharpened,' I probably would have fainted on the spot."
"Yes, I also think Wen Qi is so brave. A girl fighting alone in such a strange world, sob sob, I feel so sorry for her."
"I hope she lives well. Even if she can't find out the truth, getting an A rating would be great."
Dragon Kingdom, Loongson Base
"Can you analyze what kind of monastery this is?" asked the top leader of the Loongson base.
The old man sat in front of hundreds of live streaming screens, looking at Wen Qi on the screen, and asked a question with his back to a group of analysts.
Fu Ding rapidly moved his hands across the semi-transparent light screen, summarizing the fragmented information that had been analyzed so far.
"Mr. Zhang, we have currently deduced four possible outcomes."
"The first simple conclusion is that, judging from the human remains, scalp, nails, and severed toes found in the trash can in room 404 and in the food in the restaurant, this monastery is likely selling human flesh, and eating the human flesh sold here will make you stronger."
"The second possibility is that the entire Building 1 where Wen Qi is located is filled with believers aged 15-20, all of whom are in the auction department. Combined with the conversation between the priest and the cloaked man, it can be inferred that they are conducting illegal organ transplant auctions, or that organ trading is legal in that world."
"Because only organ transplants have relatively high age requirements, no one cares if these believers have their kidneys removed, since they seem to have no relatives and are likely to be brainwashed."
"The third conclusion is that the Protestants here will be sold to those cloaked people as their playthings. After all, they are young and energetic, and the cloaked people can choose their own parts and become stronger. I can only think of dual cultivation in cultivation novels and the sculpting of raw human flesh."
"The fourth inference is that these Protestants were sold here and then auctioned off to others for research experiments related to pollution."
After listening, the old man pondered whether or not he should provide Wen Qi with off-field assistance now.
There's only one chance, and only two minutes to talk.
However, the strange world is different from Earth; some of its thought processes are beyond the comprehension of normal people.
Perhaps none of the conclusions drawn from the analysis are correct, and they may even mislead Wen Qi.
...
Weird World
Wen Qi carried the nun out of room 404 and put her in the bathroom to sit on the toilet.
As for Daniel, he could only lie under her bed. Anyway, real time was paused during the simulation, so it wouldn't take too long.
"Simulation begins, mind astral projection."
"You put on Daniel's monk's robes and hat, quickly left the room, and then went straight up the stairs to the third floor."
"By this time, the dean and the other two had long since disappeared from the third floor."
"You pretended to be calm and composed, passing by the doors of each room, carefully listening to see if there was any movement inside."
"It wasn't until they reached room 315 that the monk, accompanied by a Protestant, emerged from room 318."
"You have to pretend to enter room 315, after all, you're not the real Daniel. If you say even one word to him face to face, you'll give yourself away."
"After the four of them headed towards the elevator, you secretly followed them quickly, wanting to see if they were going to the prayer church or leaving directly with the Protestants."
"The Dean and the cloaked man took the elevator to the first floor, while the monk led the Protestants to the fourth floor. You decide to follow the cloaked man downstairs first."
"They take the elevator, and you start doing parkour on the stairs, and soon you're on the first floor too."
"They left Building 1, and you followed closely behind, managing to grab a map of the monastery on the first floor."
"You were so focused on going to the restaurant that you didn't really observe the monastery as a whole."
...
"There are two accommodation buildings on the map. The fourth floor of Building 1, where you are, has a buttress bridge that connects to the tower of the prayer chapel, which is where prayers are held."
"The logistics department and the dean's office are both on the first floor of the dormitory building, while the restaurant is a separate building on the first floor, a few hundred meters away from the church."
"There is a small garden between the buildings where patients can relax and sunbathe, and the entire monastery is surrounded by high walls."
"Passing through the small garden, you'll reach the main gate of the monastery. At this moment, the abbot is accompanying the cloaked man towards the gate."
...
"You watched the two of them leave; there were three people on guard at the main entrance."
"The monastery's iron gate appears to be electrified, and the walls are at least 5 meters high; it's clearly not what a proper monastery should be like."
"After the dean and the cloaked man left, you went to the vicinity of the gate and observed them up close for a while."
"One of them was in charge of letting people through, one was in charge of powering on the gate, and one was in charge of checking the necessary permits for entry and exit."
"You imagine that if you tried to climb over the gate, you would be electrocuted or beaten to death by the guards."
"You touched Daniel's monk's robe; it had no pockets."
"But given your current identity, it's not appropriate for you to ask how to get out, since you're playing the role of Dr. Daniel right now."
"You can only go back and find the cultist who was taken away by the cardinal."
"As soon as you turned around, you saw a young male cultivator in red coming out of the restaurant. His expression was bitter, and he didn't look happy at all."
"You recall one of the clues you saw, which was about describing this child in red."
