196. Puzzles
In the room, Billy, a sixteen-year-old boy, wept profusely.
Earlier, he had already informed Du Wei that his younger brother had been eaten alive by the clown-like monster.
On the side.
Gna said in a bitter tone, "We chose to call the police, and we also went to check under the tree that Billy said, but we didn't find any blood. ”
Du Wei nodded slightly and said: "Evil spirits and other things, unless they are targeted, ordinary people can't see them, and those things are very weird, and you can't use known logic to understand them." ”
Gna sighed and kept silent.
Du Wei thought about it and walked in front of Billy, quietly looking at the black mist on Billy's body in a state of spiritual vision.
Although no malice was felt.
But that doesn't mean we'll be okay.
Besides, what Du Wei has to do now is to find the clown and bring it back to the clinic.
"I've got to get it to target me first."
He said something in his heart, and then said to Gnar and Bill, "Please close your eyes, I need to do an experiment." ”
The father and son didn't think much about it and just closed their eyes.
The next second.
A creepy chill appeared in the hearts of the two of them, and the cold hair exploded in an instant, as if they were being targeted by something terrifying.
When they opened their eyes again, everything was back to normal.
In their eyes, Dr. Du Wei had his right hand in his pocket, and his face was cold, and there was no difference from before.
Gerner wondered, "What did you do?" ”
Du Wei said lightly: "Help your child solve some troubles, but it doesn't matter." ”
Bill gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Du Wei, I just suddenly felt a lot lighter in my heart. ”
Du Wei raised his eyebrows and said, "Because you have also become the target of that ghost, when I take away the trouble from you, it will no longer target you, so remember, don't be afraid." ”
As he spoke, he asked again: "By the way, do you know that there are other children in Dre Town who have seen that clown?" ”
Bill shook his head, he had been staying at home lately and hadn't been out much, so he didn't know anything about the outside world.
At this time, his father Gna frowned and said, "I have heard that a few children have met Pennywise, do you want to find them?" ”
Du Wei nodded and said, "Yes, but I can go alone, you just tell me the place." ”
Gerner replied, "They are all in the town's school, but the school won't let you in at this time, because those children are preparing for the high school entrance exam." ”
"Please tell me about them."
"Aina, Feron, and Pol, they're in the same class as Billy."
Du Wei's evil spirit put his right hand in his pocket, feeling the cold and evil coolness, thought for a while and said, "I know, but now, I have to go to them." ”
Gnar immediately said, "You have just arrived and are leaving, I should treat you well." ”
At this point, Gna's face suddenly turned red, and he remembered the current embarrassment at home, hospitality meant extra spending, and Billy was going to high school in the second half of the year.
Du Wei shook his head slightly: "No need, I wish you a happy life." ”
Hearing this, Gna had no choice but to sigh: "Then I'll send you." ”
"Okay......
……
11:03 a.m., moderate rain.
Dewey left Gna's house and called Officer Tom.
Once the call is connected.
"I'm dealing with evil spirits in Dre right now, but I need a police permit. ”
On the other end of the phone, Tom said in surprise: "There is an evil spirit incident in Dre Town?" ”
"Yes, and I can't be sure if it's an evil spirit for a while, but it's evil, and it's very harmful to young children," Du Wei explained. ”
Tom said helplessly: "The town of Drey is under the jurisdiction of New York, and I can indeed call the police department over there and get you a charter certificate, but if it will kill someone, I will be very difficult to explain at that time." ”
Du Wei's tone was calm: "I promise you, no one will die at the hands of evil spirits. ”
Tom wondered, "This is not like what you would say, every time you dealt with an evil spirit incident before, someone died......"
Du Wei said coldly: "Because this time, the target of that evil spirit can only be me!" ”
"What do you mean? Don't be a hero, if something happens to you, your girlfriend will definitely come to the police station to trouble us, fuck! She's so rich, we can't afford to mess with her! ”
Du Wei was still indifferent: "I know what I'm doing, I've encountered more dangerous things than this, please don't worry about my safety." ”
The other end of the phone.
Tom was silent for a moment before he said, "Okay, you go directly to the police station in Dre Town, and I'll let them start the license now." ”
Du Wei hummed and hung up the phone directly.
Then he stretched out his demonic right hand out of his pocket.
The right hand is pale.
In the state of spiritual vision, he could clearly see that his entire right hand was wrapped in black mist.
It seems a bit inaccurate to say that.
It should be said that those black mist were tightly grasped by his right hand, and he couldn't escape at all.
The mist had been trying to spill out of Du Wei's hands, taking on a dense form, as if there was some kind of cold and evil will.
It's struggling.
But it didn't work at all.
At Gna's house, the moment they closed their eyes, Du Wei went directly into the evil spirit and grabbed it.
The fog felt strange to him.
It's like a puzzle, it's incomplete.
And it seems to be related to Billy, but it's actually something completely unfamiliar.
If Billy is compared to a carrier, it is a terrible thing that parasitizes Billy and feeds on fear.
"It's not like an evil spirit or an evil spirit at all, it's a bit like Annabelle, because both are parasitic."
Du Wei's tone was indifferent, without the slightest emotion.
It's not like a human, it's more like an evil spirit.
"But this thing seems to be affected by the black umbrella......"
He released the black mist with his right hand, and watched it try to break out of the range of the black umbrella, but there was no way to get out, and his brain calmly made a judgment:
"This is supposed to be Pennywise, but it's clearly only part of it, and it can be understood as a piece of the puzzle, and once every twenty-seven years, Pennywise appears to target the youngest children who are most likely to give birth to fear."
"But I don't know the connection between the clown Billy saw and the piece of the puzzle on his body."
"So now I have two ideas."
"One is that every child who is targeted will have a piece of the puzzle on his body, absorb his fear and grow, and when fused together, it will be the complete Pennywise."
"The second is that the so-called clown itself is Pennywise, and the puzzle piece on Billy's body only appeared because he was afraid after seeing it."
"If it's the latter, then I may not be able to do anything about it, because I don't meet the prerequisites for age, and I don't have a fear of being targeted."
"But if it's the former, then what I need to do is to collect the puzzle pieces and create a condition to be targeted by it."
After Du Wei finished speaking, he put his right hand in his pocket, held an umbrella and carried a bag, and walked towards the police station in Derui Town......
His goal is clear.
Find Pennywise and transfer the antique clock to it, and if he can solve it by the way, Dewey will not choose to let it go.
