Chapter 347 346. The priests family
Gascoigne's ho is next to a wide canal.
This may not be intuitive to say.
The window of his house is next to a large ditch that is more than three ters wide and six ters deep, without a cover or fence.
The canal seems to be infrequently used. There is not a lot of water underneath, just a thin layer of silt.
It seems that to make it easier for people to enter the canal, there is also a ladder directly pressed not far from the window of Gascoigne's house.
Lan En couldn't imagine what the designer's state of mind was like when he was working on this kind of building.
This is not yet an era when night lighting is widely available. Who would break their neck if they took a single step at night?
Still on the edge of a residential area!
"Yanan's architecture is very strange. They have all kinds of precision equipnt, but the basic design is completely out of line with outside knowledge. Maybe it's because the city is built in the mountains, and terrain with high and low differences is very common. If not Its hard to get used to the style here, but its not easy to settle down.
Gascoigne explained this to the new strangers.
"But. There is no fence in such a deep canal. What should I do if I walk at night?"
Walking at night? Gascoigne asked with a strange smile, After last night, do you still expect anyone in this city to go out at night?
Lan En was speechless.
The two people walked along the ditch for about half a minute, passing several coffins tied with chains, before arriving in front of Gascoigne's house.
His ho is no different from that of ordinary Yannan people.
Thick wooden doors and windows are equipped with strong iron bars. There are several turns of iron chains wrapped around the iron bars, and several locks are hung on the chains.
Insecurity makes every Yannan peoples houses have similar configurations.
At the door, Lan stood aside and Gascoigne stepped forward to knock on the door.
In Yanam, slamming on the door is a very annoying and disturbing behavior.
Because that kind of sound can make people think of wild beasts trying to break into the door at night.
A brown-haired woman ca out of the door. She wore a red knitted scarf as a shawl.
The figure is slender and beautiful, which is in contrast to the strong Gascoigne, but it also matches well.
After seeing Gascoigne standing at the door, she naturally stepped forward and hugged the priest, as if she had not slled the sll of his foul blood.
Feeling that he was holding a living human body instead of a corpse, he seed to let go of the stone in his heart and breathed a sigh of relief.
This seed to be a habit between the two of them. It was only after they separated that the woman saw Lan En behind her.
Hello, Ms. Viola.
Lan En greeted politely.
"Who is this?"
The brown-haired woman asked hesitantly. Gascoigne made the introduction sideways.
"An unlucky foreigner who just arrived in Yanan last night. The church should not be able to make arrangents for him now, so I plan to let him rest at ho for a while."
The hostess is exactly what Gascoigne said.
After hearing about Lan Ens current situation, he warmly invited him to stay for a few more days.
Gascoigne only teams up with Uncle Henrik. I always feel that the two of them are not safe. It would be better if there is another hunter.
Viola said happily as she led Lan En towards the house.
Although Im not a hunter and dont know much, its easy to do things when there are many people, right?
Gascoigne listened to his wife's words and smiled helplessly. He took off his wide-brimd hat and hung it on the coat hook by the door.
"I've told you many tis, Viola. There's no such thing as a hunter's job."
But the hostess seems to have long learned the skills of an old married couple.
She can automatically filter out the words that her husband says and what she doesnt want to hear. Gascoigne could only smile sheepishly at Lan En.
This is a cozy little house. It can be seen that Viola put a lot of thought into decorating this ho.
Scattered trinkets, spotless sofas, tablecloths, and shiny glass and tableware
Is dad back?
As he shouted, the sound of two small leather shoes running on the wooden floor ca from the back room.
The two little girls hurriedly ran from the back room to the living room. Then when they saw the stranger standing in the living room, they quickly stopped and beca nervous.
They seem to be twins. The two little girls are wearing the sa small leather shoes, white socks, and plain dresses that look like the uniforms of an early won's college.
The two of them look very similar, sweet and well-behaved. They also inherited Viola's brown hair, but one had a pure white hairband on her head, and the other had a bright red hairband.
When they crossed the Lane and saw Gascoigne, the restraint of the stranger who entered the house disappeared again.
The girl with the red hairband seed to be bolder. She did not approach the hunter stained with animal blood, but just stood there and called "Daddy".
Gascoigne did not approach them, he just waved with a gentle smile and introduced to Lan En.
My children, twins. The one with the white headband is my sister, Oliveira. The one with the red headband is my sister, Victoria.
They are all lovely.
Lan En complinted him half sincerely and half politely.
When you are a guest at soones ho, you must first praise the children.
Ignore the "humanity 1" fireworks effect displayed on the retina by ntos.
Lan En smiled at the two girls.
But my sister seems to be less courageous and shy. When both sisters' faces turned red, she took the lead and pulled her sister back behind the wall.
Behind Lan En, Gascoigne had already taken off his coat, which was stained with blood, and threw it into the bamboo basket.
Lets take a shower first to clean up the blood.
Lan En nodded. Before he could figure out what lycanthropy was, it might be a safer choice to listen to the locals advice.
The two of them washed their bodies in the bathroom one after another. Viola prepared a set of Gascoigne's old clothes for Lan.
Fortunately, the priest is not small, otherwise Lan En might not be able to lasso him.
Gascoynes hunting clothes are easy to clean. In fact, the reason why most Yharnam hunters choose leather coats is because they can easily wash away the thick blood.
But when it cos to Lan En's armor, Viola does not have the skills of an armor cleaner. She is just a full-ti wife.
Therefore, we can only leave it there until the Healing Church has ti to settle down Lan En.
Lan En didnt object, he just smiled and nodded.
In fact he was sowhat inclined to leave Yharnam after a short rest.
This city gave him too much feeling that sothing was wrong.
Whether its the miraculous [blood therapy] or the weird animal transformation disease. Everything is wrong.
But since Gascoigne has promised to take care of his family when he goes out to buy incense today, it shouldn't be a big deal to delay this mont.
After washing away the blood stains of the lycanthropic patient, Viola had filled the table with sumptuous food.
It seems that because of the hunter's schedule, as a hunter's wife, she also adjusted her cooking habits.
The dinner that was supposed to be the most sumptuous was now moved to the morning.
By the ti Lan En ca out of the bathroom, Gascoigne's family was already sitting at the dining table.
There is room for him at the table.
