Just as the prison guard wanted to give Father Pitt a second shot, Elizabeth waved and signaled that they all went out.

The prison guard glared at Father Peter before leaving. The guy had been calling him all night and was almost annoyed him.

After everyone left, Elizabeth came to the cage and looked at Father Pit indifferently. At first, Father Pitt continued to roar and said that he was wronged, but after a while, he slowly stopped and even avoided and dodged Elizabeth's sharp gaze.

Elizabeth sighed and said, "Father Pete, this is not what good things are done."

When Father Peter heard this, he shivered for a moment, but just lowered his head and said nothing.

Elizabeth continued, "I heard that you organized an orphanage to adopt those poor children and hired some helpless elderly people to help cook and wash clothes. There is a place to live and have a meal. But in this way, the orphanage is not small in size. It has raised more than a dozen children and five or six elderly people. As a priest, you can't afford the food and clothing of so many people, right?"

Father Peter covered his ears and curled up, as if he didn't want to hear Elizabeth's voice again.

Elizabeth did not care about Father Pete's reaction, but said: "Cass Town is not a wealthy town. At least the townspeople in the town have no extra money. If you want to maintain the orphanage, you can only find the three landlords with large cotton fields. Those landlords are indeed good things, and they did not respond to your begging, and they still refused to donate indifferently. Those nobles could not count on them, but the children and the elderly had to eat. There was no way, you could only make other ideas."

Elizabeth looked down at Father Pete and said, "The granary in Cass Town is almost empty, right?"

Father Peter sobbed silently and murmured: "I have no choice. The children want to eat, they want to eat..."

The secret that Danica and Elizabeth said was actually one thing. The granary that provided food for the victims was almost empty. Because it was burned an empty granary, Elizabeth made that instruction. Since it did not cause any actual losses, there was no need to hold Danica to leave. As for why Danica thought of burning the granary...

Elizabeth said: "That granary is the reserve granary of Cass Town, and it usually does not need to be used, but you probably didn't expect that an earthquake suddenly came to the town and the grain in the reserve granary must be used. But the food is gone, and you can't explain it to the victims at all." The grain in the reserve granary was saved bit by bit by bit by bit, just to deal with the sudden disaster. If you know that Father Pitt's life-saving food was provided to his orphanage, the victims could tear Father Pitt alive.

"I don't know how you thought of this method." Elizabeth said, "You plan to burn the granary with a torch, and then deal with it with the crime of neglecting management?" The Inquisition found traces of charcoal and petroleum asphalt in the granary. Why do a granary need so many ignition materials? Are you afraid that it will not catch a fire? It was because of the discovery of these things that Danica thought of the idea of ​​burning the granary. In fact, if she did not set the fire, Father Pitt would burn the granary herself the next day.

Father Peter raised his head and looked at Elizabeth and said firmly: "I'm not afraid of my own sins. I'm not afraid of letting so many victims suffer. I'm not willing to die. I'm just worried about those children." If the victims knew that the reserved food they had accumulated with hard work was eaten by those children and were in danger of starving to death, they would not pity the children. At the least, curse and beat and scold them at the worst. They were excluded by everyone in the town, how could those poor children survive?

Elizabeth walked out of the temporary cell and returned to her residence, and such strange places could be explained.

Father Peter knew that the fire was not released by himself, so why did he punish himself so severely? If he felt that he was too guilty of neglecting management, why did he not care about the investigation of the case at all, as if he had decided that the fire was completely his responsibility. In fact, it was his fault that the food stored in the granary was gone!

What's strange is that Danica, since she learned about the actual situation of the granary and knew that someone was planning to set fire, why did she worry so much that she would find herself? She could push the fire to the person who actually planned to set fire. After all, she came with Elizabeth, and the charcoal and oil asphalt were not something she could get.

Did Danica reveal some cleverness when setting the fire? Elizabeth was thinking about this question, and the young nun waiter walked in and reported softly: "Holy... His Highness, Father Peter committed suicide by hitting a wall in the prison."

Elizabeth was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay, I understand, you go down first."

Just when Elizabeth was in a state of dismay, she felt someone coming in again. She just said, "It's not for you...ah, it's you."

The one who came in was a black robe priest, who was wrapped in a black cloak, looking like he would never see the light of day. This guy has a special status in the Inquisition, with strong strength, but he is only responsible to the chief referee.

Elizabeth stood up and said respectfully: "Does the teacher have any instructions?" In front of him, he often appears as the chief referee's messenger.

The black-robed priest said in a hoarse and ugly voice: "Sir, let you go back immediately."

Elizabeth replied without any hesitation, "Okay, I'll set out right away." Even as the referee's favorite student, she did not dare to disobey the majestic old man. After a simple handover, Elizabeth rode a horse and left Cass Town.
