The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 686 Donation

That's right, it's Donna!

The owner of Donna's bar, the newsman.

With the appearance of the other party, most of the doubts that had been troubling Qin Ran were resolved.

The person that the fake Gannett wanted him to find was Donna.

Unfortunately, this Donna seemed dissatisfied with the actions of the fake Gannett, and started to kill him on her own initiative.

It's just that the opponent miscalculated his strength.

Therefore, when faced with failure, the other party did not hesitate to 'kill and silence'.

He covered his own death with the death of Simmy.

Misleading all those who know.

After all, the owners of the three addresses that the fake Gannett had given him were all dead, so who would be the first to be suspected?

The answer is obvious.

It's him who got the address!

Especially when Mei Kaixi and the owner of Buzhan Bookstore died at his hands, it would give people a preconceived impression.

Even, as long as that Donna is not an idiot, she will definitely leave all kinds of evidence pointing to him as a 'murderer'!

Qin Ran could completely imagine the troubles he would encounter next.

In the watch world, there are police officers to maintain the law.

There is also a similar existence in the mysterious side.

Because only a stable environment can generate enough value.

"'Elder Council'?"

"'Holy Legacy'?"

Qin Ran whispered about two organizations he had a strong impression of.

But he quickly withdrew his attention.

He only solved half of the doubts about fake Gannett.

There is still half left: Why did the other party want to find him?

In other words, why bother to test him?

because……

He lost his memory!

The other party wants to confirm whether he really lost his memory!

Besides, Qin Ran couldn't think of the other party's intention of arranging him to meet a news dealer.

It is the most reasonable explanation that an informant happens to know a little about his true identity.

It's not the "travelers, explorers" and the like investigated by Teresa, the female police chief, but something more secretive.

For example: the identity of the mysterious side.

According to the other party's plan, Donna would give him some clues about his true identity.

As a patient with amnesia, in order to find the lost memory, he will definitely chase after him.

And in the process, the fake Gannett will definitely get a lot of benefits.

"What could it be?"

Qin Ran thought.

Then, subconsciously, his hand involuntarily touched the box containing [Unknown Strange Object] in the backpack.

Suddenly, Qin Ran was shocked.

He found that he had been ignoring the most important point.

He, too, was at Winchester House.

...

Somewhere, in a secret room.

The sound of quarreling is constantly ringing out.

"asshole!"

"Why didn't you come as planned?"

A high-pitched voice sounded.

"Do you want to die?"

"This matter has already involved the 'elder council', do you still want to participate?"

A sharp female voice questioned without showing any weakness.

"I'm pretty sure that 2567 is that guy!"

"Just give me a little more time and we'll get that guy out!"

The high-pitched voice was full of annoyance.

"A little time?"

"What are you kidding? Facing the lunatics of the 'Council of Elders', you can be killed dozens of times in a second!"

"Of course, if you still want to go now, I won't stop you!"

The sharp female voice said mockingly.

"How should I go now?"

"You bastard has already gotten the matter out of hand. If I go now, do I have to wait for you to collect my body?"

The high-pitched voice seemed to have turned from embarrassment into anger, and the words became more and more impolite.

However, the sharp female voice ignored the other party.

Without the high-pitched voice of the opponent, he also fell silent.

The whole secret room was silent.

Both seem to have given up.

But the real situation is only clear to each other in their hearts.

...

When the sun fully shone into Meikaixi and Buzhan Bookstore, Qin Ran was already sitting in the open-air area outside Kairos Coffee House, eating his own breakfast.

The bookstore opposite ushered in its new owner.

A group of children eager for knowledge.

At daybreak, Qin Ran called Ann Rutledge Okun, and with the help of the lady with all eyes and hands, Mei Kaixi and Buzhan Bookstore successfully became a free, public welfare one. Bookstores open to children in various orphanages—after taking away all the things in the secret room and sealing the secret room.

Seeing the innocent and joyful smiles of the children opposite, Qin Ran, who hadn't slept all night, whetted his appetite.

Two beef burgers were eaten clean in no time.

The only pity is that today's Kai Luosi coffee shop did not deliver orange juice.

It seems that the guy he kicked into the coffee shop yesterday smashed the juicer.

Refusing the coffee recommended by the waiter, Kieran drank the free water.

Kieran didn't stand up until the middle-aged clergyman who was wearing a nun's attire approached from the opposite side.

"Good morning, Mom."

Qin Ran greeted with respect.

Not only because of the status of the other party's priest, but also because of the actions of the other party.

Unlike the clergymen he knew who were trying to catch their fame, the lady in front of him was a truly caring and kind lady.

And from what he saw just now, the lady in front of him was more conscientious than the rumors said.

Look at the smiles of those children, as an orphan, Qin Ran has the absolute right to speak.

"Good morning, Mr. 2567, thank you for everything you do."

"You can call me Sili, or Sister Danton."

Sally said so.

Dandong is not a surname, but a general name of the Dandong Church. All clergy will be given this name when they officially join the church.

Of course, being able to openly add words like nun and priest to the back is enough to show the difference from ordinary clergy.

At least they are senior priests.

And there are not many such senior priests in Altland City.

If it exists...

Basically, it is certain that it is inextricably linked with the 'Holy Legacy'.

At least, this is recorded in the books in the secret room of Mei Kaixi and Buzhan Bookstore.

"Yes, Sister Danton."

"Actually, this bookstore wasn't mine before. I met a friend here yesterday... In the end, that friend gave this bookstore to me, but you know, I'm a person who lost his memory , I need to get my memory back instead of staying here to run a bookstore."

Qin Ran respected the other party, and then, with a little confusion, talked about yesterday's experience.

Kieran wasn't worried that the nun in front of him would confront Ann Rutledge Okun.

Even if she went to confront her, Ann Rutledge Okun, a woman who focused on her own interests, knew what to do.

"It turned out to be like this..."

"If you don't mind Mr. 2567, I can mobilize brothers and sisters in the church to help you."

The nun said after thinking for a while, but was rejected by Qin Ran.

"No need, Sister Dandong, I have already found out my identity with the help of Sergeant Teresa, you see you are also calling me 2567, I just need to go back to Siridi in Matam Island , see if I have left any information, if I have the habit of writing a diary, it would be great!"

"Nice to meet you, Sister Danton."

"Hopefully we will have the chance to see each other again."

Qin Ran looked optimistic, and stretched out his hand as he spoke.

Shaking hands and saying goodbye is a kind of etiquette here. No one will regulate it, but no one will refuse.

Even the clergy.

"Okay, Mr. 2567, hopefully... oh my god!"

As soon as the nun shook hands with Qin Ran, she was about to say goodbye to him.

In her opinion, this is a kind person.

Deserves good rewards.

And, in the bottom of my heart, I have already thought of some ways to help each other.

But, everything changed with this handshake.

The nun who exclaimed looked down at the faint, fleeting white light on Qin Ran's palm.

Feeling the tenacity and hope contained in it, the peace and pity on his face were replaced by surprise.

"Sister Danton, there is plenty of sunlight here, so it was just a reflection, or your eyes were dazzled..."

Qin Ran quickly withdrew his hand, looking panicked and busy explaining.

The nun shook her head.

"No, it's not a reflex, let alone vertigo."

"It's a proof of God's love for the world."

During the speech, the nun held her hands in front of her chest.

The faint, warm and peaceful light began to flicker slightly.

As if to echo.

The white light on Kieran's hand lit up again.
