Chapter 220

The light bulbs hanging from the ceiling flickered, and ghosts appeared on the walls.

The old clock placed on the wall clattered.

The tap that can never be closed tightly makes a dripping sound.

After a silence.

The shy gene grabbed the curly brown hair on his head and said with a embarrassed smile, "detective Eden, someone will call our names.

Is there any special meaning in this? "

The tall, square faced senior detective in a gray coat looked at Cole without expression, opened the file and took out a confession record.

Put it on the table, turn it around, push it to gene, and explain, "Keegan Turner, a villager near Heiguo town.

A witness in the first case of human disappearance.

According to his confession.

His wife Mary had heard her name called before she disappeared for no reason. The next morning, the world evaporated.

There were no witnesses and no signs of violent entry.

After that, there are more and more similar cases.

As of now.

The total number of missing persons is 29. "

"Twenty nine? So many..."

Gene held his chin, frowned and thought for a moment. "Are there any other clues? For example, evil power residue, witchcraft and so on."

"The first batch of demon hunters who came here investigated. Except for the demon hunter whose soul was sucked dry, there was no trace at the scene."

"So... Is acting alone a challenge to us, or..."

That's it.

Detective Eden took a deep breath and said, "if someone goes missing for no reason during your investigation, joint action will provide witnesses for subsequent investigations.

and...

I can't say how to describe the fierce evil sect in that place. In short, try not to be alone. "

Vera frowned and said nothing.

Cole looked through the file roughly, pushed it to gene and said coldly, "rest tonight and start the investigation after dawn."

Aiden got up and said, "I've prepared the room for you. I'll be on duty in the living room in the evening and call me if necessary."

Gene picked up the file. "Can you lend me this for one night?"

"Whatever you want."

After midnight.

Cole, in deep sleep, suddenly opened his eyes.

A just trial is in hand.

But I saw a pair of dark green eyes staring at him quietly in the darkness of the windowsill.

A... Dark cat?

Cole frowned slightly.

In the category of modern mysticism, hitting a black cat symbolizes uncleanness and bad luck.

In the study of fate theory.

Black cats are regarded as pets of death and gatekeepers to the kingdom of the dead.

For the demon hunter.

When you go out on a mission, if you bump into a dark cat for no reason, there will be no accident. In the next period of time, you will certainly have bad luck and even lose your life.

In short, it's very unlucky.

"Meow ~"

Lick your front paws.

Stop at Cole's window for a moment and disappear into the dark night.

The next morning.

After a simple breakfast, the three got into Aiden's police car and drove to Heiguo town two kilometers away from the unknown village.

On the way.

Eden slowed down and wiped the frost on the windshield with a towel.

Vera wrapped her coat tightly, beat her teeth, shook and complained, "this damn weather..."

Gene glanced at the cloudy sky, took off his scarf and handed it to her.

"It may rain today. We have to hurry."

The country roads are rough and bumpy.

Aiden held the steering wheel with one hand, and Cole handed him a cigarette with the other hand. "Originally, the police wanted to detain all the crazy villagers wandering around Heiguo town in a mental hospital.

But I heard you were coming to protect the scene... "

Take a deep breath and then say, "pay attention to safety in the past. Those crazy people go crazy. It's more or less scary."

Creak.

The police car in bad condition makes a harsh friction sound when braking.

After getting off the bus.

Cole finally saw the whole picture of Heiguo Town, or a huge unimaginable crater.

Look over the iron net erected on the edge of the town.

Occasionally, one or two crazy villagers will wander aimlessly near the ruins of Heiguo town with their heads bowed and their bodies bent.

See them coming.

Two policemen on duty here trot over.

After handing over the work, drive away.

It seems that there is no gain after watching all night.

Just as the four of them gathered around the edge and were ready to make a general exploration first, Vera, who was walking beside Cole, frowned and stopped and said, "did you hear any strange sound?"

"Sound?"

"Seems to be saying... My name?"

The voice fell.

Eden's face changed slightly.

The weirdness began to spread.

Like the ubiquitous evil, hiding in the dark and spying on everyone.

Until Cole's voice broke the silence.

"Only a name?"

Vera turned pale and nodded.

The sound that seemed to linger in her ears made her feel very uncomfortable.

Eden motioned a silent gesture to her not to speak and not to look back.

A cold wind blew past.

Suddenly.

There are changes.

It is like being controlled by an irresistible force, or being unable to resist a fatal temptation.

Vera's expression was gradually painful and difficult to spit out a word, "help me..."

The voice fell.

She bit her lips, and scarlet blood flowed down her smooth white skin.

His body shuddered, his forehead was covered with fine sweat, and his neck kept twisting back, as if he were resisting great power.

Gene hurried behind Vera, put his arm against her face and shouted, "Captain!"

"Hold her tight."

Cole took off his coat and put it on Vera's head. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the car parked not far away and said to Aiden, "pull down the rearview mirror of the car and move quickly!"

The first time I saw a strange event in which someone was called by name.

The originally calm detective was frightened.

He thought that as long as he didn't look back and respond to the call of unknown existence, there would be no accident.

But suddenly found out.

Some things are not what he thought.

Hearing Cole's voice, he ran to the car, tried his best to screw the rearview mirror off the fixed screw.

Cole said to Vera, "can you hear me?"

The girl didn't answer.

As if resisting some kind of spiritual evil, the body trembled violently.

Look at gene.

"Get her over there."

The two dragged the girl to the car.

With a red face and a thick neck, gene pressed Vera's face and gasped, "Captain... I can't hold it! Something seems to push her face in the other direction!"

Bang!

Eden, who kept twisting the screws, in a hurry, kicked the rearview mirror three times in a row, bent down to pick it up and handed it to Cole.

When you get the mirror.

Cole hugged Vera's body and said, "you two close your eyes and don't open them until I say yes."
