128 128. A God

"Murder? Who would do such a thing? We are all very peaceful in the village." Said the old Archpriest. 

Sylvester didn't react much and looked around the room. "Since when do thieves decorate houses with perfectly laid out jewelry just out of their respective boxes? Look at them. It's all 'arranged' on the floor." 

Hearing him, the Archpriest and Sir Dolorem looked around. They had to agree the observation was correct. None of the jewelry was thrown randomly but instead placed beside their boxes. 

Sylvester looked at the people around coldly. "Bring me the people who quarreled with this man or had any competition or animosity. The one who committed this sin stands amongst you."

As soon as Sylvester declared that, everyone started to look around themselves. But Sylvester was looking at the whole crowd in general and noticed a few heads that were not turning and a few people who were slowly trying to move back in the crowd.
