21, avenging angel

After learning the whole story from Father Doug, Qiao Wei and I immediately offered to go to the basement of the church to have a look. The priest agreed to our request and took us to the underground burial chamber. According to Father Doug, the burial chambers of the church were priests or nuns who had worked here for the rest of their lives, and Rita was the only exception.

Rita's tombstone is placed in the middle of the right side of the tomb, I don't know the rules of foreigners' respect for position, but according to Chinese customs, the position of Rita's tombstone can be regarded as the most honorable position.

Father Doug said that Zhang Lu once drew something in front of Rita's tombstone, which is likely to be the key to Rita's ghost reappearing ten years later, so the first thing Qiao Wei did when he came to the tombstone was to look for the ritual graphics related to summoning.

As we expected, there was a special figure on Rita's tombstone, but it was painted with something similar to invisible ink, and it had to be seen in some special way. Qiao Wei used some powder that I don't know, and it was easy to make the figure appear on the tombstone.

After seeing the figure, Qiao Wei also explained to me: "This is a mantra used by sacrificial and spirit mediums to séance, it seems that Zhang Lu has studied these things a lot in the past ten years, and the spell pattern is very standard, and now it seems that the séance ceremony is also very successful, and Rita was summoned back by her." ”

"She also prepared a large group of believers for Rita!" I continued Qiao Wei's words: "The women that Zhang Lu has been helping in the mutual aid club in the past, I guess Zhang Lu must have instilled in them a lot of ideas that God punishes sinners, which is brainwashing in layman's terms!" These brainwashed women are the promoters of the ghost's wishes! ”

Qiao Wei nodded in agreement with my judgment, and the next thing we have to do is naturally the soul of the super Rita.

With Father Doug's permission, Qiao Wei and I also dug up Rita's grave and opened the coffin, revealing the headless body inside.

The corpse inside was dressed in a plain white dress, the coffin was obviously embalmed, and Rita's body was very well preserved, only because of the loss of moisture that made her body a little dry.

We didn't prepare the materials for the supernatural soul when we came, but fortunately, those things were not difficult to find, and after asking Father Doug for help, in less than ten minutes, the priest had prepared all the things needed, and Qiao Wei immediately began to overtake Rita.

During Qiao Wei's transcendence ritual, I also thought that it was very likely that Rita's ghost root was not her corpse, and on her severed head, this transcendence was likely to be fruitless, and we still have to find Rita's missing head.

However, my fears soon proved unfounded, and less than a minute after the Transcendence Ritual began, a bright ball of light appeared directly above Rita's coffin. At first, the ball of light was the size of a fist, but then it slowly grew and elongated, and Zuihou became as tall as a person.

Gradually, a beautiful face appeared in the radiant red, and it was Rita's face!

Unlike the previous transcendent process, Rita's soul did not ascend directly to heaven, but appeared in front of us in the form of a goddess. This time, I was not the only one who saw her, Qiao Wei and Father Doug also saw her, and saw Rita appear as a goddess.

Father Doug was completely stunned, apparently Rita looked a little different from what he had seen before.

Surrounded by light, Rita slowly opened her eyes, she first looked around, and then said in a calm tone: "You still found here, so ......" Rita turned to look at me and asked, "Have you completed the mission God has given you?" ”

"Don't use God's name, we already know everything, all this is your revenge and Zhang Lu's. But there's one thing I don't quite understand, since you know that Daniel Brown and Bob Quinn are in collusion, Weishenme doesn't wield your so-called sword of punishment against her? I asked.

Rita didn't answer my question, just smiled meaningfully, and then the light around her gradually faded, and her figure began to blur, it was obvious that the transcendence ritual had worked, although Qiao Wei stopped reciting the transcendence text the moment Rita appeared, but Rita seemed to have no nostalgia for this shijie!

Soon, all the light was gone, and Rita turned into a faint puff of smoke, slowly drifting through the basement ceiling and disappearing.

Rita's ghost has finally left the world.

Father Doug let out a long exhale, and the knot that seemed to have been rooted in his heart was untied with the ascension of Rita's revenant.

I should probably breathe a sigh of relief too, but it's definitely not over yet.

Rita Zuihou's smile is conveying a certain message to me, she has no concern for this shijie, maybe there is a role in Qiao Wei Chaoduwen, but I can feel another meaning from her smile.

If Rita is an avenging angel who has returned to earth in the name of God, then she should have dealt with Daniel Bob instead of dealing with other evildoers in addition to disciplining Bob Quinn.

"That's not right! We may have been taken advantage of by her! "I suddenly realized something crucial.

"What do you think of? Is Daniel in danger? Qiao Wei asked.

"Ask the priest if there's a boy with an exploding head among the penitents in this church."

Qiao Wei was stunned for a moment, then looked at me with wide eyes and said, "What do you mean......"

"I can't say for sure, but I have a vague feeling that I've been taken advantage of by Rita! Even if Rita becomes a goddess, she can't be omniscient and omnipotent, there must be a source for the criminal information she has, I guess this source is this church, if the exploding head will also repent, then Rita will probably want to treat the previous two angel killers to give the exploding head a sword of punishment, and the target he wants to kill is Daniel Brown! ”

Qiao Wei nodded at me, and then asked Father Doug questions.

The priest recalled, and then said: "I can't see the face of the confessor in the confessional, but it is true that there is a young man with an explosive head who often comes to the church and sits for hours, and I am not sure if it is the person you are talking about. ”

"Then have you heard anyone confess that they killed old ladies specifically?" Qiao Wei added.

Father Doug hurriedly waved his hand, but soon he thought of something, and then said: "No, the old lady was killed, but there was a man who kept saying that he hated his grandmother, and he hated all the people who looked like his grandmother, and he asked me if it was a sin to hate a person like this, and if so, could I be forgiven by God." ”

"And how did you answer him?" Qiao Wei asked again.

"God is merciful, and He will forgive everyone who repents in good faith." Father Doug replied.

Qiao Wei and I couldn't help but glance at each other—my judgment was most likely right!
