Mary had always felt that there was something strange about the town lately, or at least it was her instinct. It's been twelve years since I married into this town. She had gone from a young girl to a yellow-faced young woman, and she remembered that when she came to the town for the first time, it happened to be a corn festival, and the town felt the same way she does now.

She shook her head, dispelling the strange uneasiness in her heart, and tried to tell herself that it was nothing more than her own delusion. Then he brought breakfast to the table and beckoned her husband and daughter to breakfast.

To be honest, although Mary has been married here for so many years, she is really not very interested in corn. Her husband, Gerry, is also one of the farmers in the town who grows corn, and it can be said that Mary has seen more corn in the past twelve years than many people have eaten.

Gerry is a big fat man of five big and three thick, just like all farmers. He always likes to drink some beer, eat some snacks and watch TV after a busy day, and it is always inevitable that he will lose shape. Fortunately, the daughter he gave birth to to Mary is not like him, Linda, who inherited her mother's genes, is a cute and innocent little girl.

Gerry casually turned the TV on one side in the direction of the dining table, turned it on, and then walked to his place and sat down. After seeing today's breakfast, his face suddenly fell: "Why is today's breakfast a tortilla?" "It seems that this thing doesn't like corn very much.

Mary came over with a frying pan, put a poached egg on the tortilla in front of him with a spatula, and then said helplessly: "The bank loan will be handed over this month, and the day after tomorrow will be the biennial corn celebration, our family will sell a batch of corn at a low price, and the family's money will be running out for a long time, so let's eat it!" ”

Green slapped the table dissatisfiedly, startling Mary, who was putting eggs for little Linda. The two looked at Gerry in surprise, wondering what was wrong with the fat man. You must know that although there were some difficulties at home before, I never saw Gerry lose his temper.

I saw Gerry shouting angrily: "I've worked hard all day, and you're going to give me this kind of food?" ”

The sound was loud, so loud that it was heart-pounding. Little Linda was immediately frightened into tears by her father's roar and hid in her mother's arms.

"What's wrong with you?" Mary was startled at first, then came back to her senses and yelled at Gerry.

As if enchanted, Gerry swept the food plate on the table to the ground with one hand, glaring at his wife and children with red eyes. In the end, under the nervous eyes of the two, they slammed the door angrily, leaving behind the two in fear.

...

As night approached, the large square in the center of Corn Town was still a busy scene. For the biennial corn festival, the construction team that came to the center of the town was rushing to decorate the entire venue.

Tommy is a member of the construction team, and I heard from other colleagues that he comes here every two years, and the outfit for each celebration is almost identical. As a new member, as soon as he entered the town, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

But work matters, and he soon puts his unhappiness behind and devotes himself to his busy work.

Just as the decoration work was in full swing, the huge corn cob was suspended in the air. Tommy, who was doing the carrying work in the distance, only felt a violent buzz suddenly sound in his ears, this sound was sharp and piercing, and suddenly made his head tingle, and he couldn't help but squat down.

He crouched on the ground with his ears covered, his brow furrowed as if he had fallen into a demonic sound. When he noticed the beeping sound dissipating, he looked up to find his colleagues running in the direction behind him. He turned away, only to be stunned by what he saw.

The huge corn cob had fallen to the ground, smashing a large hole in the ground. Quite a few people fell into the hole and screamed, and the ground was covered in shocking blood, and a half-cut body was scattered on the ground.

...

Although Lei Chan can drive, he is very sad that he does not have a car. Although there are many disadvantages to freeze the world, at least it is a worry-free thing to pick up the car and take things at will.

Helplessly, without a means of transportation, he could only choose to take the shuttle bus to the address of Corn Town.

Because of the celebration going on in Corn Town, there are quite a few shuttle buses, but there are also a lot of people who go there. When Razen arrived in the town, it was already the night before the corn festival began.

He got out of the bus tiredly, looked up at the sky, it was already dark, and found a nearby motel and stayed.

As night fell, Lei Chan brought three cherry beef patties back to his room from the restaurant next to the motel. While munching on his own dinner, he began to flip through the materials he had brought with him.

According to the Brotherhood's investigation, there have been a total of 11 extermination incidents in Corn Town. It happens every twelve years, and each time the murderer is the mistress of the house. The matter is also very simple and rude, the hostess kills her husband and children, and then runs away in full view. And every time the place that disappears, it is in a cornfield, and the method of disappearing is exactly the same, except that it disappears completely after leaving a large pool of blood in the same place.

Later, after the first team of exorcists disappeared, Milo collected the information left behind by the previous team of exorcists and gave it back to the Brotherhood, but lost contact the day after the investigation.

According to the information left by Milo, the results of the preliminary investigation by the first team of exorcists in the town showed that the monster behind the incident was not a ghost, and the IMF did not react. It's not a cult thing, because there is only one Christian church in the whole corn town, and everyone is Christian. It's not a monster, because in addition to the fact that this happens every twelve years, there are no strange deaths of livestock and wild dogs.

The first team of exorcists eventually identified the cause of the incident as a curse, and only a certain curse would cause a person to completely lose his mind and slaughter his family. However, this theory has a fatal flaw, that is, the last place where the women disappeared was in a cornfield, what happened to them, and where did they go.

The first team of exorcists began a second round of investigation with this goal in mind, but then there was no news, apparently something bad had happened, and according to the last clues they left behind, they disappeared in an abandoned two-story house outside of Corn Town.

It is worth mentioning that the last place where Milo disappeared was also this big house.

Therefore, when Lei Chan successfully stuffed three cherry beef patties into his belly and smacked his lips with his aftertaste, he also determined that his goal for tomorrow was the abandoned mansion outside the town.

Then there was a knock on his door!
