Self-cultivation of the Exorcist

In Northbrook, it was still raining at noon.

A brand new Subaru Impreza is driving on the road, splashing a lot of mud.

Du Wei sat in the driver's seat and glanced at the gloomy sky outside the car window.

According to the latest weather forecast, New York will be cloudy and rainy in the next few days, accompanied by heavy rain and lightning.

In other words, when the church's exorcist arrives and prepares to deal with the nuns, it will be in a rainy day.

"That's not a good sign."

He whispered something, turned the steering wheel, and drove into another road.

...

Mrs. Mina's home is in the central area of ​​Northbrook District. Although the location is not very prosperous, the house price is not cheap.

Du Wei had considered opening a psychological counseling clinic here before, but after considering the cost-effectiveness, he gave up the idea.

After stopping the car.

Du Wei walked slowly in the rain with a bag on his back and an umbrella.

Opposite him is an independent small two-and-a-half-story villa. Although it looks like it has been around for many years, it is also worth a lot.

In front of the villa, there is a roof to shelter from the rain.

Du Wei put the umbrella away and put it on the shelf at the door, then walked forward and stared at the door quietly.

In the state of spiritual vision, he felt a strange sense of oppression, but for some reason, it seemed very light.

The only thing that can be heard around is the sound of rain, and the villa in his eyes seems to be very ordinary, if it is not known that Mrs. Mina's daughter has been possessed by an evil spirit.

If it wasn't for the fact that the state of spiritual vision had entered the third stage, Du Wei estimated that it would be impossible for him to find something was wrong.

He looked at the time on his phone. Twenty minutes had passed since Father Tony informed Mrs. Mina that she was missing.

"The chances of surviving are not great."

After Du Wei said so, he turned the doorknob.

Ka...Okay,

It was the sound of the door lock being locked...

Du Wei frowned. Generally, the locks of this kind of villas are equipped with anti-theft and memory functions. Without a key, unless the key is cracked, the possibility of successful lockpicking is infinitely close to zero.

After thinking about it, Du Wei turned around and walked along the wall, looking for a suitable entrance.

soon.

He came to the two windows on the right side of the villa. The curtain of one of the windows was not drawn tightly, and he could see the scene inside.

However, due to the angle, Du Wei could only vaguely see that the furniture in the room was displaced, the sofa was upside down on the ground, and there were broken plates and bowls everywhere, as if an earthquake had just been experienced.

Unlike the New York in memory, this city is an inland city and is not near the earthquake zone.

Thinking of this, a thought flashed in Du Wei's eyes: "So is the movement caused by the evil spirit?"

In the book that Father Tony gave, there is a record of this situation.

[Some powerful evil spirits have very terrifying abilities, which are enough to affect the surrounding environment, and even to a certain extent, can distort space and time]

Recalling the information in that book, Du Wei took a deep breath: "It seems that things have become troublesome. I hope to find some clues and give Father Tony an explanation."

At this moment, Du Wei has no hope of surviving Mrs. Mina.

He reminded the other party before, but was rejected.

Even though Mrs. Mina felt that her daughter was a little abnormal, she was still stubborn and unable to make a decision, and she always insisted on giving an answer before the time of death came.

Therefore, Du Wei did not feel any guilt or discomfort.

He just does what needs to be done.

So, Du Wei turned his head and looked around. After making sure that there was no one there, he took out the silver cross dagger from his pocket, drew out the sharp blade, and directly poked it hard along the edge of the glass.

There was a crash.

The glass windows shattered, and the shards were everywhere.

Du Wei turned over and got in. As for whether this scene would be captured by the surveillance camera, it was not within his consideration.

After all, the insider, Officer Tom, would definitely understand.

...

Inside the villa.

Du Wei reached out to pick up the family photo from the broken photo frame, and stuffed the silver cross dagger into his pocket.

The picture shows Mrs. Mina and her husband smiling, holding the hand of their daughter Kelly.

The time to take the photo should not be very far away, because Kelly's appearance has not changed much from what I saw before. She is as delicate and lovely, with some freckles on her face that have not faded.

It was Kelly's husband who caught Du Wei's attention. He was tall and tall, and although his appearance was ordinary, his eyes were very sharp, giving him the feeling of a social elite.

"It's basically the same as the masked evil spirit on the bus. If you ignore this face and the gold brooch, you can be sure it's a person."

As Du Wei said this, his eyes suddenly fixed on the back of Mrs. Mina's husband's right hand in the photo.

"It's a strange tattoo, why is it a six-pointed star?"

In many literary works, the six-pointed star often represents auspicious meaning.

But in the records of the church, the six-pointed star is the symbol of some cults.

Just as the logo of the church is a crown of thorns and holy things such as the burning Holy Grail, the logo of the Church of Turin is an abstract face.

The upper half of the hexagram represents men, while the lower half represents women.

Its meaning was not beautiful at first, but very weird.

Therefore, ordinary people would not use this pattern as a tattoo. Even in modern times, because the original pattern is too simple, the pattern will be changed to make it more in line with public aesthetics.

"Maybe I should investigate Mrs. Mina's husband."

Du Wei folded the photo, stuffed it into his wallet, and walked into the house.

What has been confirmed so far is that some weird things with the letter val are more or less related to nuns. Although the secrets of this cannot be determined, they should all have some weird power.

For example, in Du Wei's spiritual vision state, he can occasionally see the death scene in the future.

only……

He still couldn't judge whether this ability was brought by the ring or the antique clock.

Go room by room.

Soon, Du Wei came to the bedroom on the second floor.

He turned the door casually, but it was not locked.

Pushing open the door, Du Wei's expression was a little strange, he saw something that he shouldn't have seen.

"It appears that this bedroom belongs to Madame Mina."

The surrounding decoration is relatively simple, but there is a dressing table placed beside the bed, and some skirts and underwear are hung in the open wardrobe by the wall.

Du Wei glanced casually, and after making sure he didn't find anything, he frowned, turned around and backed out.

Suddenly, he turned his head again and stared at the bed in the bedroom, his deep black eyes turned slightly cold.

"Only one quilt? Even if the husband disappeared or even died, it was only two days ago."

From a psychological point of view, a normal couple, even if one of them passes away suddenly, will cherish the bits and pieces of their previous life.

The same is true in reality. After the death of a partner, some people keep their partner's clothes, etc., and even put the ashes at home, and remember them all year round.

However, in Mrs. Mina's bedroom, there is only a quilt, which is very unreasonable.

Unless, she hasn't slept in the same bed with her husband for a long, long time.

It can even be boldly speculated that she and Kelly did not sleep together.

Du Wei faintly felt that the information Mrs. Mina told him before might be only one-sided, and there were definitely some important points that he hadn't told himself.
