Chapter 385 Murder and arson, professional and reliable
In this cold, dead, damp and dark space, the presence of golden light is so abrupt.
It was so tiny, nothing compared to the surrounding darkness.
But the moment he saw it, James seemed to have the courage to live again.
He rushed out of the room without looking back, and ran through the underground passages full of pipes, ignoring the cultists chasing after him in the church, and ran forward.
A familiar shout came from the side.
Those are the voices of "wife" and "son".
Women and children called his name, hoping he could stay.
However, James did not stop.
He didn't know where he was going.
Even though his birth was original sin, even if the past was nothingness, he still wanted to live.
James opened his eyes suddenly and found that he was still in the ward at this moment.
Amanda's hopeful eyes turned into shock, then anger and disbelief after she woke up.
"You rejected the empty man? How is this possible?!"
"Your mental strength is so weak, why can you still maintain yourself?!"
The girl showed another face, and the look of whispering to James just now was gone.
Of course.
From beginning to end, Amanda regarded James as the embodiment of her faith, and those tenderness were also given to Kongren.
But now that James has disobeyed their arrangement and refused to be a container, there is no need to continue talking to Yan Yuese.
"The meaning of your birth is to be a container, there is no second way to choose!"
"If you are unwilling to accept destiny, we can only use coercion."
"What a shame, James. I was hoping to make your last moments less painful."
She walked towards James, who had not fully recovered his mobility, and reached out her hand to cover his eyes.
"Even if the memory disappears, the remaining emotions are enough."
"Sleep."
Before Amanda could finish her words, her arm seemed to be pulled by something, and she pushed it towards the wall uncontrollably.
Looking at the back of the palm, I don’t know when it has been penetrated by a scalpel.
The contrast between the bright red blood and the white palms looked so dazzling.
It turned out that it wasn't something that pulled her arm, but a scalpel that nailed her palm directly to the wall!
Amanda's facial features were twisted together due to the extreme pain, but she did not cry out, but immediately looked behind her.
I don't know when a figure stood at the door. The person looked very young, with black hair and outstanding appearance.
He was leaning against the door frame of the ward, playing with the scalpel in his other hand.
The sharp knife that can easily cut through the flesh is as dexterous as a silver butterfly dancing between its slender fingers.
"Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, but you. Do you have anything else to explain?"
The young man seemed to have no intention of answering Amanda's question.
He spoke in a casual tone, as if what he was revealing was nothing more than a trivial matter.
Amanda was stunned when she heard this, but she quickly regained her composure.
He raised his hand and tried to pull out the scalpel, but failed in the end, so he let the scalpel pass through and pulled out his palm.
The wound that was already bleeding expanded due to this movement, and small streams of blood flowed along the fingertips and onto the ground.
Amanda didn't pay attention, just looked at Su Fan and smiled.
"Are you planning to take my life? If you want, just take it."
"Leaving the illusory reality, my consciousness will merge into the wisdom circle, where I will directly communicate with the most primitive and profound reality."
"Kill me, and others in the church will continue to complete my work."
"The great gods that have existed from ancient times to the present will continue to attract believers."
Amanda turned to look at James on the ground.
"They will come one after another to find you. From now on, peace and stability will become a dream that you can never realize."
"It's just that I really don't understand why you shamelessly want to continue to exist in this world when the meaning of your existence has completely disappeared."
"Do people need meaning to live in this world?"
The corner of Su Fan's mouth curled up, as if he heard some kind of joke.
Do you need a reason to love someone? unnecessary.
Do you need a reason to live? Not even needed.
"Human beings are different from other animals in that they can think, know how to self-examine, are rich in emotions, and have sufficient spirituality.
But after all, humans are also animals, and survival is the instinct of all animals.
James wants to live, what's the problem? ”
"You personally said that everything in the past is just a script written by you. This also means that all the grudges in this world have nothing to do with him."
"No one died because of him, and there is no need to feel sorry for our brothers in the police department."
"He even did a few good things because of the 'police' status you arranged."
"The bad past has disappeared, and the unknown future is waiting for him to explore. Is there anything more wonderful than this?"
On the ground, James listened to Su Fan's words, and his dead heart gradually became alive.
"As for destiny, it doesn't exist at all. People will always hope that their children can do this or that..."
"But whether or not to respond to the expectations of parents ultimately depends on the child himself."
"Don't say some unintelligible words there."
"You are just disappointed to see that this person did not break down and actively seek death as you thought. It is so rare to love or not love him."
When Su Fan said this, his expression suddenly became playful.
"Or do you just think that the child you created has a relationship with your mother, and you can't accept it psychologically?"
"I forgot to tell you that all the believers surrounding the hospital not far away have been taken care of by me."
"The same goes for those in the church. So the great cause of bringing that empty man you mentioned may have no successors."
Amanda, who was smiling at first, suddenly turned stiff, and then her face suddenly became hideous and terrifying, like a ghost.
She lost her composure, and her body that had not fully grown yet exploded with eye-popping speed, and she pounced on the opponent.
"You deserve to die! You deserve to die! No, death can't atone for your sins at all. You should be sent to eternal darkness, the abyss of chaos full of pain and howling, and suffer torture forever!"
The scalpel that Su Fan was playing with in his hand suddenly accelerated in turning speed, almost turning into a silver arc.
But he still didn't let him go.
But even though Su Fan didn't make any movement, Amanda's body still lay on the ground uncontrollably, unable to get up, as if there was a huge force pressing on it.
"What...did you?"
James, who was on one side, had recovered some language function, but was unable to understand what was happening in front of him.
"It's very simple. Overwhelm her with your momentum."
Su Fan didn't lie.
His current strength has improved a bit compared to before. To deal with ordinary people, he only needs to release a little breath to overwhelm them.
Overwhelming on a physical level.
Faced with Su Fan's oppression, Amanda couldn't even curse like before. It's as if every cell in the body is being squeezed.
"What are you going to do with her?"
James' brain regained its ability to think and began to ponder Su Fan's words.
The young man in front of him was probably aware of his complicated emotions towards Amanda, so he didn't directly kill her like he did with other church members.
Not only supernatural phenomena, but also the human mind can see fire.
It's really amazing.
"Have her hands been stained with the blood of innocent people?"
James asked.
"Killing? Not directly."
Does that mean that indirect killing has become the norm?
James recalled the hanging corpses swaying in the wind at the bottom of the bridge in his mind, and his heart became even more painful.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
He looked at Amanda on the ground.
Even if he knew that the latter was a senior cadre of the evil church and had killed many innocent people, James could not open his mouth and let the black-haired young man in front of him execute him.
"Let her reveal everything she has done verbatim, and then accept the judgment of society and the law..."
James' voice was hoarse, like two pieces of sandpaper rubbing together.
He had never realized that the act of speaking could be so difficult.
After saying that, the man seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and he collapsed on the ground, staring at the ceiling blankly.
After a while, he reached into his jacket pocket and took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag.
After Su Fan casually knocked out Amanda, he looked at the man lying on his back smoking.
At least at this moment, he is James who truly exists in this world.
"Wouldn't this make me look sissy?"
James asked suddenly, his tone tired.
He felt so tired that he didn't care about anything else.
Young people who can single-handedly wipe out cult organizations and whose clothes are not dirty should be treated with respect and caution.
But James no longer has the energy to think about the sentences now.
"A bit."
Su Fan nodded lightly without denying it, not giving the other party any face at all.
"You should know that she is not old, and the judge responsible for sentencing may have the discretion to reduce the sentence. The punishment that applies to her is either the death penalty, or spending the rest of her life in prison and never seeing the light of day."< br>
James exhaled the smoke and blew the ashes elsewhere.
"The minor protection law is ineffective in dealing with supernatural incidents."
Su Fan turned his head, as if waiting for the other party to continue explaining.
"Since the United States has proven the existence of supernatural phenomena, Britain has now begun to formulate a set of laws specifically targeting supernatural crimes."
"Although it may take some time, the final result should be to hold him in custody until the law is implemented and then hold a trial."
"Should I say that I am worthy of being a former police officer?"
Hearing Su Fan's words, James on the ground smiled bitterly.
"I'm not sure why you came to rescue me."
"Be kind-hearted, what do you think of this reason?"
"Come on."
James struggled to move his body to the side and sat up against the wall.
"Whether you believe it or not, it's a complete coincidence that I'm here to help you sort things out."
"Tom found out about the association you were investigating, and then discovered the secret behind it, and finally conveyed it to me."
Su Fan's words stunned James.
The image of the young man who spoke erratically and was slightly off-kilter appeared in his mind.
Unexpectedly, the latter actually wrote down what he said, and even found the young man in front of him specifically for this purpose.
This true kindness made James' eyes feel hot, and he took two puffs of cigarette to calm down.
“Where are the medical staff here?”
"Killed by me. Everyone in this hospital is a member of the church. Their minds are infected with the Hollow Man's virus and they are hopeless."
“What about the church?”
"I came from the church."
"...No one left?"
"Yeah."
It's not that Su Fan didn't give the group of cultists a chance, but even if they saw their companions dying, they refused to leave. They just stood there or charged towards Su Fan.
The biggest problem is not that their minds have been deceived, but that their souls have also been polluted.
After the body was destroyed, Su Fan clearly saw the souls separated from the body, emitting bursts of gray mist, and even having bony limbs proliferating, looking like crazy.
Neither heaven nor hell refuses their entry.
Seeing this, Su Fan directly raised his hand to kill these souls with thunder.
James carefully observed Su Fan's expression, and after seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, his expression finally changed.
Just the number of believers he saw in the church was enough to fill the whole large classroom. If some senior members were added, there would probably be hundreds.
Just thinking about it, he seemed to see the tragic scene before his eyes.
But this is not important, the most important thing is...
"What if the police investigate you?"
"It doesn't matter, I've burned the place down."
"Then you also want this hospital..."
"That's not the case."
Su Fan raised his hand, and a ball of flame emerged from his palm.
James saw him waving his hand, and the flames fell on the man on the bed not far away.
He knows that the other party is the carrier of the empty man, and he also understands that death is a kind of relief for him.
I just didn't expect this process to be so fast.
The latter turned into black ashes in an instant under James's nose, and he didn't even have time to say that it emitted a burning smell.
The hospital bed below was undamaged.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that the black ash above was the body of an adult man a second ago.
"Just dispose of the body like this."
In addition to believers, there are also some textbooks that spread ideas, records of many inhuman experiments, and books recording rituals for summoning empty beings, etc...
It was too tedious to clean up these things one by one. Fortunately, I threw a handful of pill fire and burned them all.
But James didn't know the twists and turns. He just felt that the young man in front of him killed people, set fire to them and ran away. This set of procedures was too smooth.
I was sweating for a while.
He suddenly couldn't figure out whether it was good or bad that he was rescued by the young man.
