After the carriage carried Shade and Megan to the local Dawn Church, the two went through the same procedure as just now, except they first changed into the robes of Dawn Church clergy.

Other than Linda Bennett, the third daughter who had already been disowned by the family, the other six members of the Bennett Family were all here. Mr. and Mrs. Bennett and their youngest son shared one room, while the remaining three daughters shared another. It was not too crowded, however; the Dawn Church's isolation review rooms were quite large.

Shade and Megan had gone out tonight specifically for this family. Before making their final move, this was likely the last chance he would have to encounter every member of the family together.

Since sensing and probing were ineffective against them, Shade and Megan had no intention of casting any spells. After obtaining a cart to deliver Late Night Snacks, just as they had at the Creation Church, the two first went to the room occupied by the Bennett Family's three daughters.

With Linda Bennett's precedent and what had happened just now, Shade could not help but suspect whether any of Jane Bennett, the eldest daughter; Phyllis Bennett, the second daughter; and Catherine, the fourth daughter, might also be entangled with Mermaids.

It was worth mentioning that Shade had only interacted with Jane Bennett before. The eldest daughter of the family was now engaged to James Kaming, yet she did not know that her husband's father was actually the son of her romantic rival. The relationship was exceedingly complicated.

As for Phyllis Bennett, the Bennett Family's second daughter, she was the most beautiful of the four daughters. According to the rumors Miss Bell had gathered, she was also the smartest girl of this generation of the entire family.
