123, Tom's neighbor

When Du Wei left the attic, he wrapped the sharp knife suspected of being the medium of evil spirits in a white cloth and placed it close to his body.

It is not good for him to carry such a "killing tool" with him.

If discovered, it is very likely that Du Wei will be listed as a suspect.

Fortunately, there is an insider, Officer Tom, and there is no need to think about this issue for the time being.

And when he goes to church early tomorrow morning and meets Father Tony, I'm sure he should know what is going on with this evil spirit thing that Vidaus has made.

"Hoo ......"

Descending the stairs, Du Wei let out a sigh of relief.

It's 9 p.m., and he's going to call Officer Tom now, and he's already made an appointment in the afternoon to deal with the aftermath.

After all...... Outside his house, there should still be a corpse.

The hollowed-out body in the attic can't be told to Officer Tom, at least not yet.

Because no matter how you look at it, that corpse does not conform to the common sense of evil spirits, and there must be a secret existence.

The photographs, the six-pointed star, and the sharp knives put together, like a ritual, a curse set specifically against Du Wei.

If we can figure out the secret of this thing, we may be able to surprise the Vidah.

And the reason why I want to go to the church tomorrow to see Father Tony is because Du Wei found that his evil spirit this time seems to be about to complete his transformation.

He narrowed his eyes and stretched out his right hand, and a creepy aura slowly emerged, making him seem more and more weird.

At the same time, his heart was beating less frequently, and his eyes were cold.

But this is only external, not the state of almost absolute sanity after the loss of human nature.

Du Wei watched his right hand gradually return to normal, and his whole temperament changed to the way it was before.

There was something strange about him.

Before returning home, the evil spirit was still in the process of transformation.

But when I got home, it was as if I was stimulated by something, and the uncontrollable feeling slowly disappeared, and the speed of transformation accelerated a lot.

……

As he walked down the stairs, he called Officer Tom.

But strangely, this time it didn't get through quickly, as if Tom was in some trouble.

Du Wei frowned and made two more calls in a row.

It took a while for the phone to connect.

Immediately afterwards, Officer Tom's somewhat hurried voice rang out: "Mr. Du Wei, please forgive me for only answering the phone now, there is a bit of an emergency on my side, I'm sorry......"

Du Wei said suspiciously: "Didn't you go to the red light district to enforce the law?" Why does it sound so short of breath, you can't be ......"

"Uh...... Don't get me wrong. ”

Officer Tom hurriedly explained on the phone: "I didn't go to the red light district, in fact I'm just done right now, and I guess you would never have imagined what a horrific thing happened to me." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Du Wei's pupils shrank slightly, and he immediately asked, "Something to do with evil spirits?" ”

Tom sighed, "It's a very horrific suicide case, I'll take someone to your house now, and we'll talk about it later, by the way, did you deal with that damn evil spirit?" ”

Hearing this, Du Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and replied: "It's solved, but there are a lot of troubles, how long will it take for you to arrive?" ”

"Ten minutes? Maybe sooner......"

"Okay, that's it for now."

……

After hanging up the phone.

Du Wei had already walked to the door of the first floor.

He didn't open the door immediately, but first looked out through the cat's eye, and in the dim light, a pale and numb face appeared in the cat's eye.

"It's a corpse."

With that, he squinted his eyes, grabbed the doorknob and twisted it slightly, and then pulled the door open.

Moment.

The scene outside is unobstructed.

Because of Roy's death last week, few people in the neighborhood went to the counseling clinic, and in the evening, it was even less popular.

It doesn't matter, though.

The important thing is that at the door of the clinic at this time, there is a stiff body that has been dead for a long time.

He's an Asian descent, except for not having double eyelids, and Du Wei basically has seven images, and most importantly, he's young......

Du Wei looked at the corpse and fell silent.

He just stood like this, calmly staring at the corpse, his black eyes becoming dark and deep, like a lake, and he couldn't see the hidden emotions inside.

After a long time, he blocked the cat's eye on the door and walked out around the corpse.

While lighting a cigarette for himself, he closed the door with his hand.

Exhale a puff of smoke and the white smoke gradually dissipates......

The smell of tobacco burning is not good, and the longer you smoke it, the more pungent it becomes.

……

A few minutes later.

Two police cars stopped in front of the counselling clinic.

When Officer Tom got out of the car with a few of his subordinates, he saw the stiffly standing corpse and Dewey, who was standing aside, smoking a cigarette and not knowing what he was thinking.

He noticed that at Du Wei's feet, there were seven or eight burnt cigarette butts......

Tom greeted with a somewhat complicated expression: "Hey, Mr. Dewey......"

Du Wei threw the cigarette on the ground, stepped on it, and said calmly: "You came earlier than I thought......

Tom smiled wryly, "There are very few vehicles on the roads nearby, so the road is smooth. ”

Du Wei hummed, then pointed to the corpse, and said calmly: "This is the victim, I will leave it to you." ”

"Okay."

Tom nodded and instructed his subordinates, "Prepare the body bag, investigate the identity of the victim, and notify his family." ”

After speaking, he looked at Du Wei again: "Also, according to the routine, you have to make a quotation with me." ”

Du Wei thought for a moment and said, "After the corpse is transported away, I have to watch." ”

His words were cryptic, but Officer Tom was an "insider".

So, he coughed and said, "Okay, Mr. Du Wei, I'm not in a hurry. ”

Officer Tom's subordinates quickly loaded the body into body bags, took photographs, etc., and carried it into the car.

Wait until they're gone.

Officer Tom's face changed, and he whispered, "Mr. Du Wei, do you have that kind of thing at home?" ”

Although he didn't know much about evil spirits, he was not a brainless policeman, and combined with Du Wei's words just now, he keenly felt something unusual.

Du Wei was not surprised, and simply admitted: "You guessed right, there are indeed evil spirits in my family. ”

Unlike the others, Officer Tom is aware of the existence of evil spirits, and has always gotten along well, telling him that it is nothing.

And in this way, it can also dispel the idea of him coming into the house as a guest.

One is to protect his safety, and the other is to prevent the secrets of the attic from being exposed.

When Officer Tom saw that Du Wei actually admitted it, he couldn't help but scold: "Fuck! ”

He immediately stepped back, his face full of confusion and said, "How can you have that kind of ghost thing in your house?" Aren't you afraid? ”

Du Wei gave him a strange look: "I am an exorcist, and I deal with evil spirits myself, and why should I be afraid, they are very quiet." ”

Tom said incredulously, "They? How many evil spirits do you have in your house? ”

Du Wei said calmly: "Yes, some were brought out of the horror house, and I put them in a framing cabinet, so I couldn't get out, and some were caught from my patients, but as long as they entered my house, they were safe." ”

Tom looked at Du Wei with a little complicated eyes: "I probably know why you didn't let me go to your house before...... Maybe it's the exorcist. ”

After speaking, he sighed again and said: "Anyway, you are a professional, as long as these evil spirits don't run out to kill people and cause trouble to me, I don't bother to care about the rest." ”

"You know, I've been so busy lately that I can't even go to the red light district, I'm almost exhausted!"

Du Wei asked in surprise, "Aren't you in love with your beautiful neighbor?" Why would you want to go to the Red Light District? ”

Hearing this, Tom's breath stagnated, and his expression became very strange.

He took a deep breath and said, "I told you on the phone before that I had encountered a very horrific suicide case. ”

Du Wei nodded and said, "I remember it very clearly, so, the person who committed suicide was your beautiful neighbor?" ”

Tom smiled bitterly: "Yes, I can see her looking down at me on the third floor every day after work recently, I thought she was interesting to me, and even fantasized about having something with her, but when I went back this afternoon, I encountered something that I never wanted to experience again in my life." ”

Hearing this, Du Wei said flatly: "Your state is not very good, if you don't mind, you can talk to me to relieve your nervousness." ”

He had been through so much lately that he almost forgot who he was as a psychiatrist.

With that, he handed Tom a cigarette.

Tom didn't refuse, lit a cigarette and took a puff, and then slowly began to speak.

"I was driving and stopped for a while when I passed by the door because I saw my neighbor standing on the third floor, and although I couldn't see her face clearly, I could still imagine her beautiful face."

"And then, I watched as her head hit the window and fell backwards."

"I didn't think much of it at the time, I just broke down the door and rushed in."

"I quickly ran to the third floor, but when I walked into the room, I saw a broken rope with the other end of the rope around the neighbor's neck."

"Hoo ......"

Tom's expression turned a little pale as he said this, and he exhaled a puff of smoke with a shudder.

"My neighbor has been committing suicide for four days."

Du Wei frowned, went directly into the state of vision, and glanced at Officer Tom.

No anomalies were noted.

Perhaps, I thought about it too much......

So, he comforted: "It does sound scary, I suggest to go and relax, maybe you should give yourself a vacation?" ”

Tom nodded in agreement: "I think so too, so I'm going to go to the red light district tomorrow and relax tonight." ”

Du Wei didn't know what to say, so he nodded: "I wish you a pleasant day." ”

Tom shrugged his shoulders and smoked a cigarette as he walked back into the car, and soon heard the sound of the car starting, and slowly drove away.

Du Wei watched him leave and walked back home.

"I've got to get some sleep, and tomorrow I hope Father Tony can answer my questions and have information about the hunters......"
