"no problem."

Chen Ran happened to find a suitable reason to leave. At this stage when he was just here, he felt that some problems would arise sooner or later if he continued to talk to Elena. The girl seemed not as foolish as she thought.

Chen Ran stood up, made a normal nod to Elena, and said, "That's all for the talk."

"Thank you for your answer to my doubts. After listening to your words, I understand many things I don't know. I hope there is still a chance to chat with the priest," Elena smiled and stood up, gently lifted the corner of her skirt, and then walked upstairs alone after making a silence.

Chen Ran turned around and said to the mayor: "Let's go."

...

An hour later, Chen Ran walked into a dark hut with a strong and rotten smell.

This is a morgue with the bodies of all the dead people who have come to visit recently.

Unlike the usual months, there are relatively many people who die this month, reaching the number of one person who dies in three or four days. Six people have died this month. In addition to the number of deaths in this year, there are more than 30 people in the village, most of whom are men and several women.

In order not to disturb the dead's sleep, and ordinary people would not like to enter such ghost places, the coroner just accompanied Chen Ran in to check it out.

With his left hand covering his nose with a cloth, Chen Ran casually opened the sham of a corpse, and saw only a headless corpse, which was extremely nauseating and disgusting.

Fortunately, after experiencing the jungle, Chen Ran became accustomed to things like dead people, and his calm attitude made the coroner praise him.

The dead here all died for the same reason, and their heads were cut off with a sword, but their heads were gone.

According to the statistics of the dead, most of the people who died in the past year were some thieves or bullies in the town. Most of the dead women were famous shrews and long-mouthed wives in the town. Therefore, the deaths of these people brought some purity to the town, and many people praised it. But there are also some ordinary people who have no achievements, which at least proves that the murderer is not only picking those guys with criminal records.

These tragedies have caused panic among many people. Some people who have ghosts in their hearts wanted to leave Hongye Town, but were still killed by the murderer on the road.

In some descriptions of the town guards who had seen the murderer, the other party was a black knight shrouded in black mist, sitting on a tall and infamous fire horse. In the description, the black knight came and went like the wind, and could not stop his crime. Only the light of the knife flashed by. After he cut off the head of the man, he would leave without any lingering.

The description is similar to what Chen Ran encountered that day.

Chen Ran casually looked at a few corpses, stopped in front of a corpse in a bright light, and casually asked the corpse guard beside him, "Who is this guy? It seems that he has some identity as your mayor."

The coroner nodded and said, "Mr. Hui is Cole. He is the son of the richest man in the town and the future son-in-law of the mayor. But one month ago, he was also killed on the spot by the Black Knight on the way home at night."

Chen Ran blinked, but he didn't expect that he was so lucky. He just picked up Elena's poor fiancé. Although it was already autumn, the temperature of this corpse-hiding basement was very low, which delayed the degree of decay as much as possible, but it was still in a state of disgrace.

"What kind of person was he before?" With Elena's relationship, Chen Ran was somewhat interested in learning about this guy's background.

The coroner honestly replied: "When it comes to Mr. Cole, he is also a domineering person in the town. He usually relies on his father's identity as the richest man in the town. Because his father has been doing business outside for many years and lacks discipline. Not only do he often call some women to hold some decay parties at home, he also has an affair with many women in the town, and even forcibly committing them. Afterwards, he just spends money. Regarding the engagement with the daughter of the mayor, the mayor did not agree with this marriage, but Mr. Cole's father personally took action and agreed afterwards. After that, the mayor also received a promise and a large amount of betrothal gift. But he and his friends died one after another under the sword of the mysterious knight, and their deaths made many people in the town applaud it."

It turns out to be such a thing...

Chen Ran thought that Elena's unmarried would not be an amazing and outstanding young man, but he didn't expect that he would be like this, and it would be a pity to die.

But then again, apart from the result, why is this kid's life so similar to the reincarnation he once imagined? He once thought that if he could be reincarnated, he must be a rich second generation or a second generation official. He had no care of me or others at home. He usually led a wolf dog and took the evil slaves to tease the beauties in the street, and finally married a wife like a god. That was a pleasure like a god...

However, if such an experience happens to others, he will be unhappy.

After watching for a while, Chen Ran learned a little about the specific situation in the town and quickly left this gloomy corpse hidden room.

Outside the gate, the mayor and a group of guards from the town were waiting outside.

Seeing Chen Ran come out, the mayor immediately stepped forward and greeted: "Sir, have you discovered anything?"

Chen Ran said: "I took a look at it roughly and learned what the situation is. Here, I have a question."

"Sir, you said, we will definitely answer if you know."

"I heard that someone among you had stopped the Black Knight. Has that Black Knight not caused harm to the rest of you?"

A guard who had seen the Black Knight walked out and stood beside Chen Ran and replied: "Master, we have also stopped the Black Knight from advancing. However, when he was frightened by his aura, he was scrambled to the ground by his war horse. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured. The Black Knight did not kill me. It seemed that every time he acted, he had a clear target and would not attack others actively. As long as he did not block his way forward, there would generally be no big problems. Otherwise, with the skills of the Black Knight, there would definitely be more people in the town."

"Is there anything wrong?"

This discovery surprised Chen Ran. Combined with the priest and Shun who saw him when he came, the unlucky coachman, the black knight seemed to have no intention of attacking others.

Recalling the feeling when I met the Black Knight, it seemed that the Black Knight was not a human, because few of humans had such demonic nature. Moreover, Chen Ran did not notice the normal life characteristics of that guy at that time, and it was more like the so-called undead creature in the demon world.
