Fortunately, after some evasion, Anne finally convinced most of the editorial staff that she was not the main force in the search for missing people, and that she could not be psychic. And Yi Annie is just a newcomer to the mysterious version, and it is enough to be familiar with everyone present, and she does not need to have strong social needs like the news and entertainment versions.

As a result, there weren't many people chatting around Iannie, which gave her the opportunity to have a good taste of the food at the high-end restaurants.

Regarding channeling, Yi Annie thought about it afterwards and was indeed a little skeptical. For most of the days when she was in a coma, was the part where her soul flew into the cave, was it considered psychic? It doesn't seem to be quite the same as the "psychic" in horror movies, but it seems to be quite similar in nature.

In addition, she touched the jade bracelet on her wrist, which her mother had given her before leaving the country, and it seemed to have had the effect of exorcism, although it was not very successful. But when she was caught by Noah's mother, there were so many people who proved that the bracelet had ever emitted white light.

Thinking of this, she remembered that she hadn't had time to tell her parents about her job being transferred from the design department to the editorial department. Anne's parents are very reassuring of her, so sometimes it is possible to only video once a month.

Thinking so, Yi Annie had the intention to ask her parents about this matter, but now that she was at a dinner party, it seemed that she couldn't talk about it if her parents called immediately to care about it. So I'll just give up and talk about it later.

It was almost 9 p.m. at the end of the dinner, and the waiters at Five Fish Restaurant packed the remaining ingredients into boxes and attached a bottle of wine, which was handed to everyone who left the scene. This made everyone sigh again, and they didn't know how much money the editorial department spent on this dinner.

"Annie, go to the bar or not!" Victor greeted. There was a group of young lads standing next to him, and to Iannie's surprise, Betty was among them.

It was only nine o'clock on Friday night, and it was time to get high, and the familiar friends in the editorial department were calling friends, planning to go to the bar street for another wave.

"I'm not going," Anne refused, shaking her head, "I'll have to go to a funeral early tomorrow morning." ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Then you go home first, next time. Victor rubbed Eaanne's head with his height advantage, "Bye-bye! See you next week! ”

"See you next week, you guys have fun." When Anne said this to Victor, her eyes drifted to Betty, and the two met eyes, each showing a narrow smile.

The funeral that Yi Annie was going to attend was Noah's mother's funeral, and thinking of this, Yi Annie had to lament again. This is Noah's mother's second funeral this month, but this time it is a comfort to finally be able to put the bones in the previous burial mound.

Thinking so, Yi Annie put the wine and food box on the ground of the passenger seat, got into the car and drove home.

On the way back, the mist was thick and the streetlights were dim, and Anne again nervously glanced into the back seat through the rearview mirror.

"Phew—no one." It was another false alarm, and Yi Annie felt that it was better not to drive alone at night recently, and the palpitations just now made her heart pound wildly, and it seemed that she was about to jump out of her throat.

Fortunately, it was only about fifteen minutes to drive home, and when I got home, Wang Yuxin had already returned, and when someone was with her, Yi Annie felt much more at ease.

Anyway, on Friday night, no one who has worked five days goes to bed so early.

Yi Annie opened the food box she brought back, put it together with the supper that Wang Yuxin had prepared for herself, and took out a cup and poured wine for the two of them. Due to the presence of the superiors at the dinner, everyone was more restrained, and Yi Annie didn't drink either, and now she can finally drink.

On TV is Netflix's recently launched supernatural youth campus TV series "Fatal Key", which is a comic book series, the original work is the son of world-class horror novel master Stephen King. Although he was not able to inherit his father's business to write novels, he was checked by his father, and his supernatural comics were also famous.

After watching an episode, Yi Annie asked with some confusion: "Yuxin, do you think this street is a little familiar?" Especially the stone pavilion next to this cemetery? ”

Wang Yuxin nodded and said, "So you think so too?" ”

Since you all have questions, then ask Brother Gu. As soon as Yi Annie searched, she found the filming information of "Fatal Key" and pointed it out to Wang Yuxin: "It was really filmed in the branch campus of our school!" ”

Anne was referring to the branch campus of the local art university where she had studied, in another small town an hour and a half south of Summertown, and only about 20 minutes from the town where the Inferno estate is located.

Thinking of Inferno, Yi Annie was irritable again, this mysterious commissioner's behavior was too strange, Yi Annie always felt that her previous coma was pulled into the water by him, of course, Wang Yuxin also thought so.

"There have been a lot of horror masterpieces filmed here lately." Wang Yuxin didn't feel Yi Annie's mood at all, and continued to talk about the information she knew about locally filmed movies and series, "The horror film "Lighthouse", which won an Oscar nomination last year, was also filmed in Norino. ”

"The Lighthouse" is last year's horror blockbuster, and Anne Yi naturally knows it.

While watching TV and chatting again, the plot of "Fatal Key" left the supernatural category and began the scene where the second middle school youth was jealous and carried away for "love", and Yi Annie and Wang Yuxin, the two single dogs, were no longer in the mood to watch it.

Seeing that it was midnight, I had to get up early the next day, so I cleaned up the remaining supper on the coffee table, said good night to each other, and hugged the cat to sleep.

At eight o'clock in the morning the next day, Yi Annie and Wang Yuxin put on all-black clothes and drove to Naya City.

Noah's mother's body will be held in a chapel not far from the city, and the burial will take place in the afternoon.

Since Noah's mother's bones were found more than three months after the wreck, and the body had been ossified, the local coroner took notes and fixed the broken bones in the coffin. Therefore, the step of meeting the body is also dispensed with.

By the time they arrived at the chapel outside Naya at ten o'clock, the farewell party had already begun, and Yi Annie and Wang Yuxin found a back seat, watching the solemn priest talk about heaven and hell on the stage.

Since there was no need for the body to meet, the lid of the brown wooden coffin was closed, and white and yellow chrysanthemums surrounded the sides of the coffin, together with the pink-green chrysanthemum stalks, which remarkably sanctified the sunlight that shone through the skylight of the church. In front of the coffin is a table with a picture of Noah's mother, framed in different styles, with Noah's mother smiling.

Several of Noah's relatives were present, and he sat in the first row with his girlfriend Polly, next to his father and grandmother, and his grandfather sat in a wheelchair on the edge of the church bench with a blanket on his legs, looking mentally okay.

A few rows back, Anne also saw Tom, who was napping in the arms of a woman with a distinctly maternal instinct, and sitting with this woman was an old lady, presumably Tom's mother and grandmother, who had "lost" Tom while walking the dog.

To Anne's surprise, Inferno was also present, and she thought that this impersonal secret commissioner probably had no interest in this kind of funeral. Inferno is still wearing a retro suit, a style that doesn't need to be changed even for funerals.

The farewell party was held quietly, and after the pastor, Noah and his mother's relatives and friends also took the stage to speak. Speaking of emotion, he also cried with the audience.

Suddenly, a loud cell phone rang.

"Smack!"

The mobile phone in his hand suddenly rang loudly, and the person who was playing with the phone was so frightened that he threw his phone out. The phone slid far on the marble floor of the church and finally came to a stop after a knock in the corner.

From a distance, the screen of the mobile phone was densely covered with cobweb-like cracks, and it looked like it was hanging.

"Hey, the quality of the locals is so poor?" Wang Yuxin whispered to Yi Annie's ear to complain, and the two of them muted their mobile phones on the way here.

Suddenly, more cell phones rang, including those of Yi Annie and Wang Yuxin.

"Oh my God! What a situation! "Obviously, this is definitely not a problem of poor quality, this kind of uniformity is definitely a big deal when all mobile phones are ringing.

Pressing the ringtone, Yi Annie took out her phone from the small black bag.

A long message was displayed on the screen, preceded by a bold message: "Emergency Alert!" ”

For a moment, the voices of surprise in the church came and went.

"There have been a number of shootings along the line from Naya City to Summer City, and the police are conducting a pursuit investigation along the way. Residents of this area are advised to seek shelter nearby or stay at home. ”

A man sitting next to him looked at his phone, stood up immediately, and first closed the door of the church behind him.

"I think...... Naya City and I ...... each other," Wang Yuxin lay on the back bench of the church helplessly.

Looking at the chaotic funeral scene, the pastor hurriedly came to the stage to preside over the order. The funeral procedure was changed and went directly to the tea party stage after the farewell party.

North America is used to eating brunch, so at this point in time, most of the people present did not eat breakfast, and when Noah and a few relatives and friends who were present to help brought out the snacks and tea that had been prepared before from the back kitchen of the church, everyone present was immediately much more relieved.

Yi Annie and Wang Yuxin each took a burger and a cup of coffee, feeling suddenly resurrected from hunger.

Among the people present, there were only two Asian faces, Yi Annie and Wang Yuxin, except for Noah and Polly, who were busy distributing food, and Inferno, who was only acquainted, there were no other people they knew, so they took food and sat in the corner to talk about themselves.

After a while, Noah's father and grandmother came over pushing Noah's grandfather's wheelchair, followed by the family holding Tom.

"Excuse me, Anne......"

Wang Yuxin stuffed the food into her mouth, pointed at Yi Annie, and gave up her position with interest.

"Thank you, Anne, we both owe a thank you!" Several people who were much older than Yi Annie bowed slightly to her, attracting the eyes of the people drinking tea and chatting next to her.

Anne knew that Noah would definitely tell her family about these things, but when she received such a thank, she scratched the back of her head with some embarrassment: "This is what I should do." ”

Looking through the crowd, Inferno stood alone at a distance, and through the skylight of the church, several crows flew by.
