280 Evil spirits

Rorschach had just left the abandoned house in a police car when a torrential downpour fell.

There was thunder in the sky, lightning pierced the sky, rain knocked on the car, and the windshield wipers kept swinging rapidly, but the water that had just been swept away gathered again in an instant.

It took twice as long for Rorschach to return to the police station, and as soon as he walked through the police station's gate, he saw Lupita at the front desk holding a large umbrella and preparing to go out. He looked at the wall clock on the wall, and it turned out that it was already lunch break.

Lupita saw Rorschach come back and quickly asked him if he wanted to bring back lunch.

Rorschach smiled no, and headed for the police station hall.

……

Inside the sheriff's office.

Rorschach sat in a leather chair behind his desk, leaning back in his chair with his hands on the armrests and his eyes closed. After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes, leaned over his computer, entered the police system, and began to look for similar recent homicides.

On the display, windows pop up one after another, stacked on top of each other.

Rorschach stared at the screen and counted the windows that had been opened, there had been ten similar cases.

Sure enough, as Henriksson said, there were similar cases in all the states of Sam's Country. That is, at least ten people were brutally murdered after entering the "haunted house", and the murderer has not been caught until now.

In this case, it is not surprising that the FBI believes that it was an "evil spirit". It's just that why are so many "haunted houses" popping up all of a sudden? He felt that the situation was too weird.

In the open case window, Dana's case is among them.

Rorschach clicked on Dana's case window and began to look it up. Soon, while reviewing photos of the environment at the scene of Dana's murder, he noticed something unusual.

Photographs of the environment at the scene of the crime are tiled on the screen.

Rorschach stared at the screen, taking a closer look at the photos.

There are many eerie religious symbols on these photographs, identical to those painted on the walls of abandoned old houses outside town.

Rorschach felt that these symbols should be the key to summoning the "evil spirit", and he clicked on the autopsy report on Dana.

The screen shows the cause of Dana's autopsy, Cause of Death: death by suffocation.

This surprised Rorschach a little, the two cases seem to be similar, but they are different in subtle ways, Jill's cause of death is due to a spinal injury, while Dana is suffocation.

If it is because of the arrangement of the "haunted house" to summon the "evil spirit Medkai", then the victim should have died in the same way, and it is rumored that "Medkai" died by hanging, then the victim killed by Medkai should also die by hanging.

Could it be that these same symbols summon different "evil spirits"?

Rorschach pinched his head and decided to interrogate Craig about what he should know. With this in mind, Rorschach got up and left the office and walked towards the detention area where Craig was being held.

……

Craig was taken to the sheriff's office, handcuffed, sitting on a wooden chair with his head hanging and looking terrified.

Rorschach sat behind his desk, silently watching him.

After a while, Craig raised his head slightly, looked around, and quickly lowered his head again, swallowed his saliva, licked his lips, and asked in a low voice:

"Sheriff, can I leave the police station on bail?"

Rorschach shook his head.

"Nope."

"God!" Craig looked up, a pleading look in his eyes, "Sheriff, please let me go!" ”

"It's going to depend on how you do next." Rorschach picked up the photos on the table, which were taken with his phone in an abandoned old house, and the content was those strange symbols on the wall.

He placed the photo on his desk and pushed it forward.

"You look at the pictures first."

"Good, good!" Craig nodded hurriedly and reached for the photo on the table.

It's just that the moment he saw the photo, his face suddenly changed, his hands shook, and he almost threw the photo on the ground. He hurriedly put the photo back on his desk, not daring to touch it again, nor daring to look at it.

Rorschach looked at Craig and didn't expect him to react so violently after seeing these photos.

Craig slumped in his chair, panting for air, louder and louder, even triggering a cough.

It took a long moment before he looked up.

"Where did these photos come from?"

"Inside an old abandoned house outside town."

"Out of town?" Craig was stunned for a moment, "No, it can't be, why is it outside the town?" Is it ......?"

Rorschach narrowed his eyes.

"Could it be what?"

"Yes, someone summoned it?! Is it coming to kill me? Craig suddenly lost control of his emotions, stood up sharply, and turned to rush towards the office door.

Rorschach stepped out from behind his desk, grabbed Craig by the neck, dragged him back to the wooden chair like a chicken, pressed his shoulder, and asked in a deep voice:

"Do you want to escape?"

"I ......" Craig was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, cold sweat broke out from his forehead, and quickly explained: "No, no! Sheriff, I didn't want to run! ”

Rorschach snorted.

"Say, what was summoned?"

"The evil spirit, the evil spirit! Kill the evil spirit of Dana, someone has summoned it! Craig shouted, horror in his eyes.

"You mean Medkai, because those symbols were summoned?"

"Oh, who's special! That's the name! Craig lowered his head and covered his face, "I didn't expect those symbols to actually summon Medkai, it was it that killed Dana!" ”

Rorschach's eyes narrowed, if those symbols could really summon "Medkai", why was Jill's cause of death different from Dana's?

He looked at Craig.

"Where did you hear about these symbols?"

"Valaka, he told me."

"Where does that guy live?"

"I don't know." Craig hurriedly shook his head, "I met him on the website, it's the website of "Go to Hell Together", we only contact each other by email, and I don't know any other information about him. ”

From Craig's eyes, Rorschach felt that he was not lying, and after asking for Valaka's email address, he asked:

"Do you think it's possible for someone who has watched the video to draw these symbols?"

"I don't know." Craig tugged at his hair, a pained expression on his face, "Sheriff, I really don't know what's going on. ”

Rorschach frowned, staring at him.

"Who else have you discussed the layout of the haunted house?"

"Valaka, I've only consulted with him, and he taught me a lot of ways to add to the atmosphere, especially the doll without eyeballs, and it was he who suggested that I put it in a haunted house."

Rorschach nodded, then asked a few more questions about Vallakar until Craig couldn't answer anything before sending him back to his cell.

……

Rorschach returned to his office and logged on to the website called "Let's Go to Hell Together" on his computer, and after a brief glance, he didn't find anything unusual, it was just an ordinary gathering place for paranormal enthusiasts.

He glanced at the notepad, on which Valaka's ID on the "Let's Go to Hell Together" website was written. After thinking about it, he also registered an ID on the website and sent a friend application to Valaka.

With this done, Rorschach decided to go back to the abandoned old house in the evening to check if Medkai really existed.
