Chapter 52 - 52 - A Little Investigation Should Be Enough.
Seeing that piece of meat on my plate, the first thing I remembered was from the meat they took from those people, but it seemed so absurd to me that I couldn't believe they would do it.
To tell you the truth, I wasn't sure of anything, but if I had to believe one of the options, I would certainly say that this meat is not one of those people. The people of this place are not that crazy, are they?
"Noah, are you okay? You are shaking! Are you feeling anything? " Lisandra put her book on the table and stood up, she seemed quite concerned with the way I was acting.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little dizzy."
"So you better not eat anything now, go up to your room and rest, then I ask them to bring you some food." Lisandra took my hand and lifted me from the chair: "Your hand is cold."
"It's not a big deal, you don't have to worry that much." I didn't let go of her hand, but I tried to calm her down.
"How is that not too much? You are clearly feeling sick, come on, I'll help you up the stairs. " I couldn't deny your help, I took your hand and walked beside you.
"Ara, is everything okay?" As we walked slowly, Sara came over while she held a cloth and wiped her hands.
"It's just that Noah suddenly started to feel bad, so I'm helping him."
"I see ... Do you need anything? I can help you if you want. " Sara also looked worried, but she was also looking at me strangely as if she was looking for an explanation.
This is bad, she sure knows I went out last night.
"I do not need help, thank you."
"Okay, I hope he gets better soon." Sara smiled and walked towards the inn's kitchen. She looked at me for a while longer and smiled at me, then went into the kitchen and closed the door.
Thank you for getting rid of it, Lisandra!
"Lisandra, I can ask you something." I started a conversation as we went up the stairs.
"Sure, what is it?"
"Did you eat that meat?"
"The meat they served you?"
"That one." I hoped she hadn't eaten the meat, but of course, that was impossible.
"Yes, it was delicious. The cooks here are incredible. "
"I understand..."
"Why do you ask?"
"It's nothing ..." I couldn't tell her that that meat could be from humans, she sure would panic when she heard about it. And I don't even know if that meat is really human meat, I may be fantasizing about it.
But it is impossible, it is impossible not to think that that meat is from humans.
'However, I hope it isn't.' If it is really human meat, this inn is involved in something extremely disturbing and disgusting. And Lisandra also ate that meat.
My thoughts were crazy as I entered the room. I lay down and took a deep breath.
"Get some rest, I'll ask them to bring food for you in a little while, okay?"
"Okay... But remember not to bring any meat."
"Hm? What happened to you now? "
"It's nothing, just don't bring any meat."
"All right." Saying that Lisandra left the bedroom, and I remained lying down.
It didn't take long for me to calm down, so I stayed in the room and thought about what I could do. I have to know if the meat they are serving belongs to those people or not, and for that, I need to know where those boxes went.
######
"Excuse." While I got some more rest, Sara came up to the room. I was a little uneasy to think that she was involved with all that happened, but I couldn't deny her entry.
"Welcome." I received her amicably, but she had a serious expression on her face.
Sara was carrying a tray of food, but without that meat, it seems that Lisandra had warned her about it.
"You left yesterday, didn't you?" She asked as she looked into my eyes.
"I didn't go out yesterday." I was very bad at lying since my past life, so she soon realized my lie.
"I told you not to leave yesterday, look at the state you are in now. Tell me, what did you see? "
"Everything, I saw everything they did to those people."
"Shit."
"And I also saw them putting pieces of these people into boxes, and I want to know what they did with that meat."
"So that's why you're feeling bad. Don't tell me that you think I'm serving this meat at my inn? "
"What do you think I would think when I saw that beef steak on my plate? Yesterday's experience shook me. Not much, but it shook enough for me to bother with it. "
"I'm not going to judge you for thinking that. You know, we've had other cases just like yours here. Do you know that half-animal persons? "
"Yes, what about them?"
"They weren't there, were they? During execution. "
"You're right."
"Usually they don't participate, but there is always a curious person to go there. And I had to deal with the same problem, he thought I was serving human flesh to people. "
"I am also not going to judge them for thinking that," I said in a playful tone, and Sara seemed to have noticed it.
"Are you saying that a lady as kind as I would practice cannibalism?"
"As they always say, appearances can be deceiving."
"Don't worry, I am not deceiving you. And about the meat I served for you, it's boar meat, not human. " Sara smiled at me.
"I still don't trust it, I'm going to investigate a little."
"Should you be saying this so openly to me?"
"Even if you know, you won't do anything to stop me, so whatever."
"I think so. But I wish you a good meal, and also a good investigation. "
"Thanks." I smiled at Sara and watched her leave the bedroom.
Sara was not acting any different than normal, she was as usual, she didn't seem concerned about my investigation or anything I said.
And also.
She seemed to be telling the truth, probably the meat she's serving here isn't human, but I still need to be sure of that. I think maybe I don't trust her that much.
Okay, I'm going to eat this here and then go out for a while, a quick investigation should be enough.
