[Pope Paul II assassinated! The murderer's whereabouts are currently unknown!]
The next morning, Marvin was eating buttered bread while reading the news in the newspaper.
The news of the Pope's assassination had spread to a remote small town like New Ross in just one day, with alarming speed.
According to the news report, the murderer fired two shots from behind the Pope, the first shot missed, and the second shot hit the Pope squarely in the back. The exact location was unclear, but the Pope had not yet regained consciousness and was still seriously injured and in a coma; the situation was far from optimistic.
As the news broke, the people of New Ross City felt insecure; it was not that they cared much about the Pope but rather a suffocating atmosphere of oppression that suddenly surrounded them.
Anyone would know...
Cold and piercing winds were brewing.
In the tide of the times, no one could remain unaffected.
