Chapter 67 Demon Cage
The next morning, the Rose Squad gathered in the hall, and no one was absent.
Horn Shelley opened a file bag in his hand, took out a copy of the information, and put several black and white photos on the desktop.
"This is the information sent by the police station over there. Susanna had already read it on the way back. Tell them about the situation and I'll go up and organize the equipment."
The mission was taken to the headquarters of the Yishen Bureau, and Horn Shelley asked Susanna to accompany him.
Not surprising.
"The current situation is that there are undead creatures in Hongjia Town, and we need to eliminate them."
Susanna's description is very simple. In fact, the information in the file bag is also simple. There are roughly only some autopsy reports of the deceased. Rather than saying there are some special clues, it is more of a meaningless filling, in order to make this intelligence summary look like that.
In addition, there are only a few photos left. It is obvious that the local police department gave up the investigation of the case after discovering that it was a special creature that was causing trouble and waited for the strange investigation bureau to come to support it.
“Ah~”
Stephanie picked up a photo, exclaimed and threw it back, and Donald reached out to take it over.
The front photo of a corpse is filled with bloody objects such as the corpse, and bloody objects are scattered. This is the killing style of the undead creature. It never pays attention to simplicity and efficiency, but allows the hot blood to be sprayed out as much as possible. Many people think that this is the undead creature trying to feel the breath of life.
"Sterfanie, you have to get used to such scenarios, which may be seen frequently in the future."
After reading it, Donald put the photo in Stephanie's hands. There may be some bad things in her past, but Donald thinks she has certainly not experienced anything really cruel, at least not looking like it now.
Not all strangers are used to life and death. This is like the police station recruiting newcomers. Everyone has a habit of it.
"Okay, I'll work hard..."
Stephanie did not show any spoiled behavior, such as throwing the photo on the table and leaving with her mouth, or showing a grievance.
After receiving Donald's reminder, she forced herself to watch the photo. Even though her face turned pale, she didn't say a word of giving up, which made Donald nod in her heart.
It doesn’t matter if you are afraid. As long as you dare to face the fear, you will be able to overcome it one day.
This is progress.
"Actually, there is nothing good about it. The focus of tracing undead creatures is never the dead... It should be said that they are fresh dead, because those unnew dead don't care whether they have left clues. They will break into somewhere, slaughter, and then leave."
Low-level undead creatures have no wisdom. They rely on their instinct to find living lives and will not hide their killing behavior at all. They will easily be taken photos. The murderer has been confirmed long ago, so the autopsy reports in this type of case are basically meaningless.
The question is where these undead people come from and where they go after killing people.
It's a philosophical question...
"I'll get some weapons from the nearby warehouse for the team of undead creatures. Miss Quick, would you like to join me? I can explain to you some things you need to pay attention to when dealing with undead creatures."
Perhaps yesterday's exchange made Pence think that Stephanie has a good impression of him, and he tried to gain more time to spend with Stephanie.
"Of course, I'll go with you."
Stephanie glanced at Donald and found that the latter was focused on the photos.
"I'll prepare some poisons against rotten corpses. Ordinary toxic attacks have no effect on these guys."
Borglo Campbell said this throughout the whole process and then headed to the basement.
"Donald, I'll prepare some feed. After reading it, remember to sort out the documents and take them away later."
Susanna can communicate with animals and usually carries various types of animal feed with her.
"Okay, I will sort it out, you can go and do it."
With a casual response, Donald put the photo in his hand in the sun. The photo shows the side image of an undead creature. The shooting location seems to be in a woodland. With the sunlight, Donald saw that there seemed to be a strange thing hanging on a tree in the upper right corner of the photo.
It doesn't look like a vine or a bird's nest, but a hand-woven wooden frame like a diamond-shaped wooden frame.
The photo obviously does not center on that thing, so it is just a blurry outline, but Donald always feels that this kind of thing looks familiar.
"Do you think this thing is strange?"
Put the photo on the table, grab Finger's two flesh claws and knead it, lowering his head to look at it and asking.
Meow ~
Finger lay serious on the table and shouted softly at the photo.
Hongya Town is half a day away from Demingham City. Because it is just a country town with a population of no more than 3,000, there is no train access.
Fortunately, the team's cars were enough, Horn Shelley had one, Pence had one, and three people on one side.
The final group was that Susanna and Borglow got into Horn Shelley's car, and Donald and Stephanie naturally got into Pence's car.
Pence is a muscular man. The car he bought also has distinct personal characteristics. It looks a bit like an off-road vehicle from his previous life. It has a wide interior space and rough accessories.
"Do you mind if I play songs? There will be a long way to go next. If it is too quiet, it is easy to fall asleep."
As soon as he drove out of the Tallinn area and entered the land area, Pence asked in front, with Stephanie and Donald sitting in the back seat.
"I have no objection."
Donald responded, his hands kept moving, and read the book "Exorcisting Evil".
He thought the diamond-shaped wooden cage in the photo looked familiar, but later when he sorted out the inscription scroll, he remembered that he had seen it in the book "Exorcist Evil".
This religious book records the way humans expel demons (it only emphasizes some thoughtful things, Donald has tried some of them, but it has no effect, that is, seeking psychological comfort), and some emphasizes the prevention of evil approach.
In the second half, some special signs representing evil are introduced specifically, including some twisted symbols, weird creature images, and some weird handmade products.
This diamond-shaped wooden cage is mentioned as a typical example.
In the book "Exorcist Evil", the wooden cage of this shape is called a demon cage or a soul-catching cage. The origin of this statement is no longer verified. It says that the materials for making this thing are not complicated, and the production method is also very simple. It can be divided into several pieces and tied up with some grass vines growing in the cemetery.
But the simplicity of production does not mean that this thing is not effective.
In fact, the demon cage is a very sinister thing. After passing through some blood sacrifices, this demon cage will have a mental impact on the creatures close to it, causing the recipient to be confused and confused.
There is another saying that if an ordinary person dies near the demon cage, his soul will not be able to rest and is bound by the demon cage.
"The free zone of faith is still somewhat underregulated in such religious matters than the areas controlled by the orthodox church...."
In areas controlled by orthodox sects, this kind of thing is strictly prohibited. The church often distributes some pamphlets to popularize common sense in this area. Once discovered, a special police station team will conduct investigations.
Never give up until you find out who did it.
When they arrive at the Free Zone of Faith, local police officers or ordinary people often know nothing about this kind of thing. They may think it is a bird cage.
"Donald, what are you looking at?"
Stephanie had been paying attention to Donald's behavior and found that he had compared the photos in the book for a long time, and couldn't help but ask.
"It's like that. I've lived in...religious areas for a while before, and I studied religious teaching in college, so I've bought and read a lot of religious classics. I noticed that there is a diamond-shaped wooden cage in the upper right corner of this photo of an undead creature. In the book "Exorcisting Evil", this item is considered an evil handmade product."
Donald's words attracted Stephanie and Pence's attention. Stephanie took the photo over and had Donald's designation. He soon discovered the demon cage in the upper right corner, and then read it with the book for a while.
"You mean there is a religious background behind this case?"
Pence looked through the rearview mirror and saw the two people who were closer to the back because of reading a book. He smacked his lips and asked.
"I'm not sure, a demon cage doesn't mean anything. I just accidentally saw this thing in the photo, and I happened to have an impression to find it out. I can't always appear out of thin air."
Taking the photo back and looking at the undead creatures on it, Donald took out the undead creatures picture book from his backpack that was found from the villa study room. "The manual issued by the Undead Bureau mentioned that there are many reasons for the appearance of undead creatures. Some are due to the geographical environment, and some are caused by some evil rituals. The undead creatures in this photo are thin in size, with blue soul fire in their eyes, and there is no obvious special existence on their bodies, unlike the summoning objects of the black wizard..."
Undead creatures are also classified into levels. There are few powerful undead creatures produced under natural conditions. If they really appear, they are definitely strong perverts.
Most of the time, some black wizards make monsters and use some evil secret techniques to summon undead creatures to harvest their lives. However, this type of undead creature often undergoes morphological changes due to some rituals of the black wizard, such as tall skeletons, some bone armors on their limbs or bone weapons holding hands, etc.
Therefore, there are items in the strange adjustment bureau to judge whether the undead creature is summoned by the external signs of the black wizard.
