Chapter 145: Caroline's News

Two weeks ago.

West Virginia.

Parish of Terrib.

Caroline took a newspaper with a circle of job ads and drove from New York to this desolate place.

There are people here who recruit nurses, and the weekly salary is quite high, otherwise no one will come to such a famous ghost place.

The employer was apparently wealthy and lived on a very large estate.

As soon as I came from the main road, I saw a street sign on it: Davo Manor, private property, no entry.

A trail leads to the manor, lined with tall old trees, which have a sense of age.

This kind of place should be taken care of by a special person, but what Caroline saw was deserted.

The big iron door outside the manor is ajar, and the branches and leaves of the big trees next to it are stretched out to the middle of the gate, and the car can touch the door, and the weather is a little gloomy when Caroline arrives, with this desolate and uninhabited scene, it is really a bit eerie.

However, Caroline was mentally prepared for this, and after looking at the manor, she went directly to knock on the door.

And there was no response.

Caroline glanced at the rocking chair that was still shaking in the hallway outside the door, pushed the door, found that the door was unlocked, and pushed it open and walked in.

The room was a little dark, and there was a statue of the Virgin in the doorway, and in this atmosphere, there was no sense of holiness at all, but on the contrary, it added to the eerie feeling.

The murals on both sides of the living room are also religious themes.

Caroline tied her hair into a ponytail and shouted as she continued inside.

When I came to the back garden, I saw an old couple.

Chubby wife is giving her husband a haircut in a wheelchair.

"That's what true love looks like. ”

At this time, a mild-mannered middle-aged man in a suit came from behind with a box of things, and said with a smile: "It's like the classic recreation in a storybook, you must be Caroline, right?"

"I'm sorry, the door wasn't locked, so I came in. ”

Caroline and the man in the suit looked at each other and apologized.

"It doesn't matter. ”

The man in the suit smiled: "This house is huge, it's normal not to hear it, my name is Luke Coleman, real estate lawyer, we talked on the phone." ”

"Oh yes. ”

Caroline was stunned.

While the two were chatting, the fat woman kept peeping secretly, her eyes full of scrutiny and indifference.

"The doctor said he was only a month old and he was dying. ”

Luke, a real estate lawyer, looked at the old man in a wheelchair and explained.

"I know. ”

Caroline nodded.

This information has been said on the phone before.

"Verly, she's coming. ”

Luke shouted at the fat woman.

This is Carolyn Ellis, who previously worked as a nurse at NYU Medical Center. Caroline, this is Verlie Davo. ”

Luke introduces the two.

"Your home is so beautiful. ”

Caroline praised.

The fat woman's eyes twinkled, she looked at Luke, and then ignored Caroline's greetings and walked straight into the room.

"I'm sorry, she's in a bad mood, and she's more traditional, and she thinks women should wear something subtle. ”

Luke explained.

Caroline, who was wearing a suspender, smiled and looked at the old man in a wheelchair: "So, he can't speak at all?"

"No, because I had a stroke and my whole body was paralyzed. ”

Luke shook his head.

At this moment, the fat woman came over again and muttered, "She is from out of town, she must not know the rules here, and what is the matter with her accent?"

Luke reached out and grabbed the fat woman and soothed, "I know you want her to have a southern accent, but you can't find anyone else." ”

The fat woman looked at Luke, saw him wink at her, glanced at Caroline from top to bottom, and nodded helplessly, "Okay, but she won't know the rules here." ”

"Can't find a nurse, huh?"

Caroline expressed her displeasure and was about to leave.

But in Luke's stay, he decided to stay and give it a try.

The fat woman hid by the window of the room the whole time, peeping into everything, and seeing Caroline being persuaded by Luke, she showed a grim smile.

This is the fifth female nurse to apply, she is not satisfied with the other four, Caroline is actually not satisfied with her, she wants a black pearl more, but time does not allow it.

And Luke seemed to like this nurse very much, thinking of this, the fat woman glared at Luke's back fiercely.

In the end, Caroline accepted, moved in, and was given a master key.

This kind of manor has many rooms, and the keys alone have to be equipped with a series of them, but as the owner, he has a master key that can unlock all the doors.

Contrary to her previous refusal, the fat woman unexpectedly gave Caroline the key.

Caroline took the key and began to look after Ben Davo, the man who had suffered a stroke and was paralyzed, but she noticed a lot of abnormalities.

For example, Ben, who is paralyzed, looks at her with a look of horror and expectation, as if asking her for help or warning.

The fat woman looked at her as if she were looking at an object, and asked her rudely if she had any tattoos on her body.

Caroline shot back directly, saying that outsiders can't see it.

The fat woman shook her head and left, obviously dissatisfied but helpless.

When I took a shower at night, I felt like someone was peeping.

There are so many rooms in such a large manor, and there is not a single mirror, and the place where the mirror should have been hung is only the traces of the previous hanging, which has obviously been taken away.

Later, the fat woman first reminded her not to wander around, and some rooms had a lot of precious antiques, and then asked her to help pick up things intentionally or unintentionally.

As a native of the United States, the curiosity about mystery is engraved in my bones.

The fat woman's words of hiding her head and tail fully aroused Caroline's curiosity, and secretly took the master key, opened room after room, and saw many dusty mysterious and strange things.

Deeply shocked, Caroline threatens to leave and asks the fat woman to tell the story of the manor.

It turned out that there were once two black wizard slaves in this manor, they were a husband and wife, but they dared to teach the manor owner's two sons and daughters witchcraft, and finally the manor owner hung them up and burned them alive on the big tree at the gate of the manor.

Legend has it that their ghosts never left, and it is likely that her husband was paralyzed by a stroke when he ran into their ghosts.

In the attic, those mysterious and terrifying things that seem to be evil rituals are left behind by the black wizard couple.

Caroline didn't believe it, but under the guidance of the fat woman step by step, she subconsciously went to a store specializing in selling these mysterious items and bought some guardian items.

She suspects that it is not the ghosts that are evil, but the fat woman herself.

One night of lightning and thunder, Caroline, who sensed the danger, took Ben to flee, but was chased and killed by the fat woman, and in a panic, she could only temporarily abandon Ben and escape to the lawyer Luke for help.

Then she finds that Luke is studying elementary real estate law, which reminds her of what the fat woman said about the ghost possession of the body, and just as she tried to escape, Luke knocked out and brought back to the manor.

When she woke up, she saw the fat woman and Luke looking at her with a smirk......
