Book 2: Chapter 23
"Are you looking me for something?"
The man who resembled a rodent looked at me and sniffled. Though he came whenever I called for him in winter, he now showed a look of irritation whenever I called for him. It seemed that he had work to attend to. He most probably had his own land to plant crops in, and was therefore unhappy that I called for him now.
I thought his main occupation was a record keeper It appeared that he was just one erudite among the townsfolk
"Something very important."
I looked at the man in front of me. One glance and you'd feel that he strongly resembled a rodent. One glance and you'd feel that he was perfectly suited to being active at night. Now, though, he was the talent that I need. I need somebody to perform a stakeout and watch over the tavern. I now had some ideas, but I didn't have solid proof yet. Everything and everyone had gathered there, which meant that they had to be planning something. The thing is that I needed evidence.
"What is it? Do you need me to do something? Can we delay it? I do not have much time to work for you from now all the way until summer. I have to plant crops, too; therefore, I am unlikely to have time to work for you this spring."
"I know. I won't take up too much of your time, either. I don't mind what you want to do during the day, but I need you to be awake at night for me. Of course, I don't need you to help me find anything. You can arrange for somebody else to take over, but you must keep watch on the tavern for me. Nobody in the town now approaches the tavern, which means that anybody who approaches it is definitely connected to the chapel. You just need to tell me if there's anybody who approaches the tavern every night."
"Why would they approach it in the middle of the night? Also, the people going in and out of the tavern at night these days are all people from the chapel. The chapel's soldiers will go in and out of the chapel. They appear to be on patrol, so if you are asking, then there is, indeed, people going in and out. May I ask who it is that you want to know? None of us like those people, which is why we, too, want to catch their dirty deeds. We notice people coming and going at night, but we cannot spot any problems."
I lingered.
"Understood."
I nodded. The man in front of me let out a breath of relief and as though he was released, repeated, "I shall head back, then. I had too much work recently, so I can finally go home and focus on planting crops now."
"Live your life well. I don't need your help with this any longer. I need to find a break through on my own now."
I took in a deep breath.
