Chapter 331 The shop that was robbed first; the murderer’s malice!
The three of them left the police station and went to the street outside, raising their hands to hail a taxi.
Daqian’s shop is not very far from here, but there is a section of the road that is a pedestrian street that is closed to cars.
After arriving at the intersection, the three of them got off the car one after another and started walking.
My feet stepped on the wet stone tile floor, and water drops fell from time to time on the eaves next to me.
The destination was at the corner near the end of the street, about ten minutes away.
Perhaps feeling a little uncomfortable in the silence, Tom asked Darcy.
"What kind of person is your sister's husband?"
Tom's question did not receive an immediate reply from Darcy.
The latter pondered for a while, and scenes of contact with that man flashed through his mind.
"He is a very good person."
Yes, this was the first impression Ted left on Darcy.
Sister Dani is two or three years older than Darcy, while Ted is similar in age to her sister.
He obtained a doctorate in medicine at a young age and worked as an attending physician in a psychiatric treatment center.
He has strong financial management skills. Through investment, he has accumulated assets that are not what he should have at his age. He and his sister purchased a house in full.
At the same time, he has strong communication skills and can almost be said to be versatile.
After hearing this, Tom looked a little weird.
Is the man named Ted really Darcy’s enemy? Why does it sound like a one-sided compliment to that guy?
"Why would such an outstanding person..."
"It can only be said that he is very good at pretending."
There was a hint of regret in Darcy's tone.
“I have been in contact with Ted quite a lot, but I just didn’t see his true face hidden behind the disguise.”
“I still act like a fool, because I don’t think my sister can have it. "I am happy to have a husband with outstanding abilities."
"After reading Sasha's memories, I realized how cold and cruel he was."
Su Fan stood between the two. He walked slowly and unhurriedly, without any intention of interrupting.
Darcy just made the same mistake that everyone makes.
Because human society does not judge a person by his moral character.
Human nature is to pursue interests, and individuals with outstanding abilities are more likely to benefit themselves than the average person.
Teachers subconsciously favor students with excellent grades, and suggestions made by people with outstanding abilities in the work group are more likely to be accepted.
Even the villains in movies and TV series, as long as they are portrayed as powerful enough, a small number of people will become their fans regardless of their character.
Good moral character and outstanding abilities do not conflict, but they rarely appear in the same individual.
When someone owns one of them, outsiders will subconsciously think that person also owns the other, thus creating unrealistic expectations for them.
That is, filters.
The irony is that the more outstanding a person is, the more difficult it is for him to walk straight on the right path.
They stand higher than ordinary people, and the temptations they endure are far beyond what most people can imagine.
So it is difficult to be a strong and kind person at the same time.
【Thinking too much. 】
Su Fan's thoughts returned and he exhaled. White mist loomed in the air, and he suddenly spoke.
"Does the man named Ted know about your special abilities?"
"Yes, but he doesn't believe that there are any evil spirits or weird things in the world."
It's not like Darcy has never talked about psychic-related things with Ted before. Every time the other party talks about this, he always laughs once or twice.
Originally she didn't take it to heart, but now that she thinks about it, it was probably a dismissive smile.
Perhaps in his opinion, the words of a blind disabled person are of no importance at all.
"He is indeed as you said, very confident and arrogant."
After being silent for a while, Darcy said.
"After I go back this time, I am going to send something to him."
"What thing?"
Tom asked curiously.
"A ring."
Darcy sneered.
It turned out that after seeing clearly Ted's cold, cruel and confident nature, a simple plan emerged in her mind.
Give him the collection of evil spirits in your antique shop.
The ringing came from a hotel front desk, and the person using it was a waiter working there.
The latter worked diligently for the hotel for half his life, but he died badly.
One night he was maliciously pushed down the stairs by a drunken guest and was seriously injured all over his body.
The waiter did not die immediately. He was seriously injured and could save his life as long as he received timely treatment.
But the drunken guest did not go to call for help. Instead, he was worried that something would happen, so he left.
The irony is that the hotel's senior management not only failed to hold the guest accountable, but actively helped disguise it all as an accident because the guest was a VIP.
The resentful waiter turned into an evil spirit and attached itself to the bell.
No matter who presses it, a life-claim will immediately appear from it.
"Ted is arrogant and conceited, and never believes in the theory of gods and ghosts, but his strong curiosity will make him care about the consequences of pressing it. In order to prove that he is right, he will definitely press it."
Listen After hearing Darcy's plan, Tom shuddered all over.
The plan is very simple, even simple and a bit stupid.
But in fact it was Darcy who figured out Ted's nature and designed a trap specifically for him.
If you think about it carefully, the success rate is surprisingly high!
This woman is really not simple.
It seems that after being ridiculed by Su, his mood calmed down, and his clever IQ occupied the high ground of his brain again.
But soon, Su Fan's voice came from beside him.
"Your plan might have succeeded in the past, but now..."
——
Psychiatric Treatment Center.
Almost negligible sunlight shone into the room from the window and fell on the chess set on the table.
The young doctor sitting in front of the table reached out to move the chariot piece on the chessboard and spoke at the same time.
“There is a problem that has been bothering me recently.”
“Let’s talk and listen.”
Opposite, a middle-aged man wearing a caregiver's clothes leaned on the back of a chair and moved his own chess pieces.
"Do you think there really are ghosts and gods and demons in this world?"
"I am really surprised that you asked this question, Doctor Ted."
The nurse looked up at the young doctor with a surprised look on her face.
“What happened recently?”
"Some time ago, similar discussions were brought up again, but unlike before, this time those who supported the theory of gods and ghosts presented very convincing evidence.
Furthermore, my ex-wife's sister , and claims to be a psychic. "
"I haven't heard of it."
"It's normal for you to be isolated here."
Ted. He moved his soldiers and charged forward. "You haven't answered my question yet."
"I don't think so."
The nurse replied simply.
“After the treatment, I once returned to the seminary where I went to when I was a child. The place was deserted, but I don’t know who had erected a cross there.
I felt very It was an eyesore, so I broke it and threw it aside.
When I went back the next year, I found that the cross had been repaired and erected again. ”
"Then?"
"Then I broke the new cross. And from then on, I went back every six months just to break the new cross that was re-erected."
When the nurse said this, she paused.
"It's a pity that every time I go there, I don't see that nosy person. If possible, I want to kill him directly, once and for all."
"I say all this because I want to Let me tell you, people like me who have desecrated the cross many times are now safe
It just proves that the so-called gods and demons do not exist at all. "
Ted stared at the nurse named Ivan in front of him without saying a word, and then turned his attention to the computer in front of him.
On the LCD screen of the office computer, something was playing There is a picture.
The young man holding a long sword is confronting the opposite girl floating in the air, with a split brain emitting mottled energy.
The invisible blade cuts off the human head. , the talisman that the young man scattered casually burst into brilliant light
The strange girl opposite, vomited a lot of flies in her mouth...
Under the video, there is a collection of information.
The show went off the air, the host committed suicide, and all the audience members were hospitalized...
Looking at these, Ted fell into deep thought.
Although he was sure that he would never make a mistake, he could not refute such obvious information before him.
This world may not be as simple as he thought.
So, Darcy’s psychic ability is also real?
She asked over and over again that she wanted the relic that her sister was wearing when she died, just to investigate the truth?
After thinking about all this, Ted got up from his desk and walked towards the door.
——
"Now? Is there any difference between now and the past?"
Daxi turned her head sideways and faced the direction of Su Fan.
Su Fan didn't speak but Tom understood what he meant and spoke on his behalf to explain to Darcy.
"Big things have happened recently. The existence of supernatural events, exorcists, psychics, etc. has been officially recognized by the American officials on the other side of the ocean."
"What is the reason?"< br>
Darcy was horrified and moved.
The government would allow these hidden existences to be made public?
Do they want to cause endless riots and strife?
"The reason...well...the reason is that a late-night live reality show got out of control and attracted real demons..."
"They are simply crazy..."< br>
When Darcy heard the word devil, she exclaimed on the spot, regardless of whether she was still on the street.
As a medium, she is well aware of the terrifying power possessed by evil spirits.
As a more advanced existence, the devil will be a disaster that no one can stop once it appears.
"Everyone on the show must be dead..."
The pessimistic Darcy came to such a conclusion, but she did not expect that Tom would deny it.
"No...most of the audience at the scene survived. And this is all thanks to the exorcist invited by the program team by accident."
At this point, Tom's eyes fell directly on On Su Fan's body.
"It was he who fought head-on with the devil, killed it, and avoided the disaster. He is simply a god..."
Tom's explanation was met with Su Fan's warning gaze. Interrupt and shut up.
But Darcy nodded in agreement.
"Being able to defeat demons alone is indeed very powerful. However, I need to correct you. Demons cannot be killed and can only be exiled to the hell where they belong."
"But this is not important... According to the information you said, there must be signs of recognizing the existence of supernatural phenomena in Britain."
"That's why you said my plan will not succeed."
Darcy suddenly realized.
“But don’t worry, there are many things in my collection that can take his life.”
After saying that, Darcy stopped.
"We're here, please come in."
She took out the key and went to open the door, but found that the two people beside her had no intention of moving.
"Darcy, are you sure this is your store and you didn't go wrong?"
Tom's question made her frown.
She has walked this road no less than a thousand times, and even the feeling of stepping on the bricks on the ground is clear to her.
There is no chance of going wrong.
Suddenly, Darcy’s expression changed as if she realized something.
She reached out to push the door, but her palm came up empty.
The unfocused eyes reflected the destroyed door and a messy interior space.
"It seems that the opponent's movements are much faster than yours."
Su Fan's voice woke up Daqian who was still in a trance.
She was about to walk in the door immediately, but Su Fan stopped her.
“Stop!”
Darcy was stunned for a moment, but it was too late to stop her body.
At this moment, a powerful pulling force suddenly erupted.
Before Darcy could figure out what was going on, she felt her body flying out backwards.
Then, a big hand grabbed the back of the neck.
Tom was stunned and stared at Su Fan, who was carrying Darcy like a chicken.
The young man beside him just raised his hand to the woman, and the latter's body flew out upside down and landed on his hand.
It was not that Tom had never seen extraordinary people using telekinesis, but his performance was so powerful that it could overturn human beings, which shocked him!
“Go and clean up the things there.”
Su Fan gestured to the front, and then Tom woke up, nodded hurriedly, and walked closer to check, and this sight made him feel all over The hair on my hair stood on end and my skin got goosebumps.
He clearly saw the danger hidden in the inner corridor.
On the wall near the door, glass shards were fixed in mid-air.
There are push pins scattered on the ground.
A variety of sharp weapons are placed in places where everyone may pass by.
From these traps, you can feel the chilling malice of the initiators!
Tom finally understood why Su Fan suddenly used his extraordinary power to pull Darcy back.
According to the speed of the woman just now, if she took just two steps, she would be pierced through the throat by the glass shards fixed behind the door frame, and she would die!
Most people would never fall into such an obvious trap, but for those who cannot see, this is a terrifying killing trap!
The only person who has the motive to commit such a vicious act is the man behind the scenes they mentioned earlier - Ted!
