At night, the red and blue lights flickered, and countless police officers and riot teams surrounded the old apartment, the occasional honking of horns accompanied by the faint noise of the surrounding crowd, and the sound of police officers speaking into the walkie-talkie wafted from time to time.

A Chevrolet Impala was quietly parked on the edge of the road across the street from the apartment, surrounded by Philadelphians watching the excitement, all of them looking at the apartment building and pointing, and the sound passed through the car body, a little dull to the ears of several people involved.

"Dude, you're really cool." Looking at the group of negligent police officers outside the window of the impala's car, Dean who was sitting in the driver's seat said in an inexplicable tone, "It's up to you to drive into the apartment building." Which movie protagonist did you learn it from? ”

"On the spur of the moment." Charles replied, covering his head with a towel as he spoke—it wasn't just the robbers who were hurt.

"But it works." Sam on the co-pilot said: "The leader was knocked unconscious by you, and fortunately so, otherwise we would have suffered." ”

"That's right, I wish you could see the panicked faces of those guys who came upstairs to chase us, like the one in Chainsaw, what is that called......"

Sam frowned, "Actually, I think their expressions were a little abnormal. ”

"Of course it's not normal, little Sam, who would be a normal person to run to an apartment building to rob? If you want me to say they're just a bunch of bitch idiots......"

The two of them talked, not noticing the slightly strange atmosphere in the back seats.

Charles leaned back in the saddle, clutching his forehead a little absent-mindedly, the blood from the wound on it was slowly soaking the towel - they were in a hurry, and they didn't have time to treat the wound.

Qiao on the side looked at him and always wanted to talk and stopped, as if he had countless questions to ask, but under the quiet gaze of the other party, he didn't ask directly in the end.

It's just that her expression clearly tells Charles that this matter is not to be revealed easily.

The two in the back did not move, and the two brothers in front did not stop talking, even when the car broke away from the crowd and drove into the street.

"It's just that I'm wondering, why would that ghost help us?"

"And how did it get out of that salt ring?"

"I don't know how it escaped from the salt ring, but I want to say help." Dean snorted, "If I'm not mistaken, it almost strangled me." ”

"But it also pinchs people."

"That's right, indiscriminate attack, I really thank it for the whole family......"

"Ghosts are like that, and our question now is how they escaped, and what happened to us in that dungeon at the time was already ......"

Seeing that the brothers were talking more and more deeply on this topic, Charles, who was covering his forehead, shook his head helplessly, and then interjected and asked, "What is the extent of that ghost among all the ghosts you have encountered?" ”

"To tell you the truth, it's the first time I've encountered such a difficult ghost, I can't burn the corpse, I can't beat it to death, and that damn air attack." Dean, who was on the steering wheel, said, and suddenly said with emotion: "If all evil spirits are as difficult as it, then we might as well retire as soon as possible." ”

"So it's pretty powerful?"

Sam shook his head and explained: "It's not great to say that it's powerful, in fact, basically all ghosts are similar, as long as you find out their identity, find their cemetery, and then dig graves, burn their bones, no matter how powerful the ghosts are, they will disappear." ”

"This ghost is so difficult because it wrapped its body in tons of cement before it died, if it hadn't happened......"

Listening to this, Dean suddenly interjected, "It's great not to have that, but ghosts are usually stupid." ”

"Ghosts are stupid because it's been too long." Sam said: "Newborn ghosts are generally similar to normal people. ”

"The newborn ghost doesn't have that much effort."

"This is the case with ordinary newborn ghosts, but not necessarily in special circumstances, many special people are very capable after death, and there is a record in Dad's notes......"

As if he rarely talked about this, the two brothers said it with great interest, which also gave Charles a general idea of the situation.

After the death of human beings in this world, the ghosts naturally leave the body, and then most of them will be taken away by a special existence called the Grim Reaper who can foresee death, and a few who refuse to leave will become lonely ghosts and wander in the human world.

Lonely ghosts are unable to communicate with people, have a hard time touching anything, and over time, they become more and more angry and irrational. Eventually, he turned into a wraith completely.

For example, this one they encountered this time. It may have been very smart in life, and even had a doctorate title, but after more than a hundred years, it has no reason to speak of, and all that remains in its heart is anger and obsession that was rooted in the depths of its soul during its lifetime.

Ghosts are obsessed with all sorts of things, or greed, or revenge, or protecting their homes, or some kind of fixed behavior.

There are all kinds of obsessions, and if anyone touches these taboos, then they will launch a mad revenge.

That's basically how ghost crime came about.

Charles felt that the ghosts of this world were very different from those in the Song of Ice and Fire. Because there are also countless spirits floating in the world in ice and fire, but there is no so-called ghost revenge.

"Different levels of the world?"

Thinking about it, he suddenly asked, "Can you borrow my notebook and take a look?" ”

He was referring to a demon-hunting notebook handed down by the brothers' father, which recorded various monster files and what they had seen and heard.

This is actually quite abrupt, but the two people in front of them don't have the kind of mind to hide their clumsiness as treasures and only keep them for their own use, or rather, Westerners are generally big about this kind of thing, so they didn't hesitate much when they heard it.

Pulling out a thick notebook from his package, Sam reached down the gap in his chair and handed it to Charles. Dean looked in the rearview mirror and said casually, "Charles, be careful not to mess with it, this is our treasure." ”

"Of course." Charles nodded, took the note and began to look down.

Qiao, who was silent on the side, always glanced at the "little brother" beside him who once thought he was.

……

Charles and Joe had rented a car from a rental car company in Lincoln when they arrived, and it didn't take much trouble to go back.

When renting a car, the destination is already indicated on the itinerary sheet, so the car can be parked at the rental car company's branch in Philadelphia and not returned.

So now they can take the Winchester Impala back to the bar.

The Philadelphia apartment series case is almost over, and although the sudden and bizarre robbery is puzzling, there are also many dangers, but fortunately they have nothing to lose.

Although several robbers died as a result, they had already withdrawn before the police arrived, so it was not a problem - in the apartment, the broken wires of Charles were urgently repaired by electricians, but after the robbers entered the apartment, the surveillance was cut off again, so there was no footage left.

Of course, there are still rental records, but in reality, no one uses real information when hunters go on missions.

This is the end of the matter.

On the way back, the brothers in the front seat occasionally chatted a few words, and the back seat was quiet.

Qiao beside her had countless questions in her heart, but this was her first time on a mission, and she had a lot of twists and turns, and she was already physically and mentally exhausted, so she was already sleepy and sleepy.

Charles has a strong physique, but he is also full of energy, so he keeps looking down and looking through his notes.

Werewolves, vampires, shapeshifters, snow monsters, various religious gods......

This notebook is full of dry goods, with illustrations and detailed explanations of various monsters, as well as ways to deal with them.

It also gave Charles a basic understanding of his own situation.

"Aside from the fact that normal weapons can't kill, the monsters in this world don't seem to have anything to worry about...... Except for demons and angels. ”

Charles, rummaging through his notes, finally came to a conclusion.

As long as you find the right way, even gods can be killed by a hairy boy.

"It's the same as I remember, but it's just as secret......"

Thinking about it, unconsciously, he had fewer worries in his heart.

This may be because the fog has been lifted right now, but in fact, the main thing is the note.

When he came to this new world, Charles was most worried about the controller here, and he was afraid that he would not be able to do anything, and one would fall into the hands of the other party.

However, this time, the other party seems to be quite hospitable?

Charles didn't know if it was because of his good temper or if he had some other purpose. But at this moment, it was clear that God had no immediate intention of purging him as an outsider.

"I'm looking forward to meeting you too, but not right now."

Thinking of the note that had been put in his pocket, Charles muttered and closed the note, then looked up at the two Winchester brothers sitting in the front row

Although the god didn't care about his involvement in the "plot", Charles discarded some of his previous ideas, and he thought it better not to follow the two of them.

Because this would often expose him to the observation of "God."

He didn't get hurt this time, who knows if he will accidentally annoy people next time?

The existence of the two brothers must have been important to that God, after all, what he could do personally must have had a profound impact on the world.

Who knows what will happen if you rush into it.

……

Nothing to say all the way.

The way back is a little quicker than when you came. The two brothers took turns driving, and the impala kept driving fast on the road, basically without stopping.

So after a day and a night, the black car arrived at the roadside bar in the middle of the day, when the sun was shining.

The bar stands quietly in the open area of the suburbs, and the surrounding area is relatively quiet, which also makes the bar look quite laid-back in the warm afternoon light.

The car slowly drove into the open space in front of the bar, and the proprietress who had been notified by phone in advance was standing there waiting for everyone.

Strangely, she wasn't the only one at the moment, there were several other veteran hunters with weathered faces.

Joe was a little stunned by this, after all, she had sneaked away from this trip, and how did she look at this scene now, it looked like she was "asking the teacher to ask for guilt".

After a few people got out of the car, she thought that there would be a scolding or reprimand, but what she didn't expect was that these people in front of her looked directly at Charles, and then, several shotguns were raised violently, aiming at the young man who was stretching his waist.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Seeing this, Joe couldn't help but be stunned. The Winchester brothers were also nervous.

The proprietress Ellen ignored the stunned eyes of her daughter and the Winchester brothers, and pointed the swarthy hole of the gun in her hand at the door of Charles's head, her face serious and her eyes full of hostility.

"Joe used to say that you went out with Gordon when you didn't come long."

"And I inquired that the last time everyone saw Gordon was that night."

"That is, you are the last person to see Gordon."

"So, can you explain that to us? Shire? Are you an ordinary person caught up in a supernatural event, or an evil necromancer? Or even a satanic believer? ”

Hearing this, Charles was a little stunned, and then immediately reacted.

Something that was thought to be inconspicuous has now been discovered?

"Don't be nervous mom, what's going on?" Qiao asked hurriedly.

"Gordon has been turned into a monster, I have checked the information, and the means are very evil!"

Looking at the slightly excited proprietress in front of him, Charles thought for a moment and asked, "Where's that Gordon?" ”

"Inside the house."

"Take me there."

After glancing at the young man with the usual face, the proprietress finally nodded, and Charles was pointed at several guns and walked through the door of the bar.

When I came to the bar, I saw that the middle-aged black man who was tied up with all kinds of flowers was struggling to sit on a chair at the moment, grinning in the face of the crowd, not like a normal person.

It's normal because he's just a dead man now.

Resurrected dead will always follow orders unless they are killed, or the caster revives a new target.

Charles had given him the order to run, and he didn't ask for exactly how far to run, so now, even though he was tightly tied, he still looked like he was about to break free and escape.

Charles didn't take the hunter who took the initiative to provoke him very seriously, and ignored it after giving a casual order. Who would have thought that he would be caught by the proprietress right now, or that other hunters had sent him here?

After a few glances at the struggling "zombies", Charles turned to look at the proprietress who was pointing a gun at him.

"Are you sure he's not alive?"

"Of course, he's turned into a monster." The proprietress gritted her teeth and said, "And now we are tracking down the murderer." ”

"Okay, lend me your necklace."

Hearing this, the proprietress hesitated, but in the end she nodded. He then raised his hand and handed the cross necklace around his neck to Charles.

Then she saw the other man wrap the necklace around her right hand, and reached forward, and the palm of her hand was clasped on the head of Gordon on the chair.

Then, under the gradually surprised gaze of the people around him, the sound of majestic and sacred incantations opened and closed from the young man's mouth, and then I saw that Gordon, who was originally struggling on his own, suddenly began to raise his head and scream, and wisps of strange smoke rose from his mouth, exuding a unique smell of flesh.

The middle-aged zombie struggled, but under the tight confinement of the young man's palm, he was never able to break free from the encounter at this moment, and gradually, his sturdy chest in a gray shirt began to glow, and the light penetrated the clothes to be seen by everyone, and the bones were faintly visible at the same time.

In the end, under the stunned gaze of the people around him, the monster in front of him roared, and he was immediately surrounded by fierce flames!

The flames ignited, the surging heat wave rushed towards the face, and the people around couldn't help but take a step back, but no one was willing to look away at this moment, but looked at everything in front of them.

Then they saw a rare scene in their lives.

The white flames surged into a humanoid torch, which burned violently in the center of the bar, baking everyone around it. The mouth of the person wrapped in flames continued to let out a terrible scream, but after a while, it turned into a silent wail.

Eventually, the charred Gordon collapsed into a puddle of black ash that piled up on the ground with the stump of his chair, silently steaming wisps of hot smoke.

The purification magic strengthened by the Sun Child's talent is obviously more powerful.

When it was all over, Charles turned his head to look at the proprietress and the group of witchers behind him, and didn't speak, but he didn't need to defend anything for now.
