Because Roger didn't know where Carrie's home was, he had to wait until Monday to ask her for help, so he had to stay at home with his arms hanging and watch TV, when a piece of news caught his attention.
"This morning, 11 workers who died last night were found in the woods on the side of Highway 9, to which the police responded that a murderer from outside the city had cut their necks, and said that the townspeople should be cautious before the suspects were arrested......
At the scene on TV, the corpse had been carried away with a white cloth, only a coffin without a top lid was placed at the bottom of the pit, Roger touched his chin and said: "Tut-tut, it's really cruel, I should forget if I don't watch TV, Barnabas really killed a lot of people when he got out of trouble." β
As he was complaining, there was a sound of car brakes grinding outside the door, followed by a sharp knock on the door.
"Okay, I heard you when you knocked the first 20 times!" Roger opened the door slowly, and a long-haired woman with blonde white hair stood outside the door, dressed in an OL outfit who was very enchanting.
Roger leaned against the door, one arm hanging from his chest: "Who are you looking for?"
"I'm here to say a word to Barnabas Collins, little one. β
"Who?" Roger pretended to be stupid, Barnabas only arrived yesterday, and someone came to the door today?
"I think you know who it is, black haired, handsome, strangely dressed, stained with blood. The woman pushed Roger away and walked into the house without permission.
The woman walked across the porch, surveyed the hall, and commented in a mocking tone, "Oh my God, we let this place go to hell, didn't we? β
Roger squinted, this woman obviously knew Barnabas, but he had only been out for one night and was known by this woman, and the identity of the person who came was about to be revealed: "Angel Bouchard, what is it that makes it so privileged for us to have such a famous strong woman visit here?"
The woman smiled back, "You know me?"
"Big boss Angel, who controls the entire Maine fishing market, is there anyone in the town who doesn't know you?" said Roger with a smile as he closed the door.
The woman took a few steps closer seductively: "I am here on behalf of the town council to welcome new visitors to Port Collins. β
Roger opened the woman's hand above her head, "When did the town council become so well-informed?" and welcome new visitors...... Is the town council so enthusiastic?"
"Don't guess what grown-ups think, little one. The excuses that the woman casually found were recognized, making her smile seem a little less bright.
"Yes, yes, an old witch who is nearly two hundred and fifty years old can indeed be regarded as an 'adult'. Roger unscrupulously exposed the woman's old bottom: "Or should I call you aunt?"
Angel's face was completely gloomy, no matter who it was, a young and beautiful woman who was called aunt couldn't help but want to go crazy.
However, Anqi's qi cultivation kung fu is still good, she took a few deep breaths, and barely put a smile on her face.
"Two hundred and five aunts, let's put away your smiling expression like yours, Banabas is not here, he has found a new love. Roger calmly continued to taunt the woman.
Anqi's expression immediately fell: "He went to find a woman?" but then laughed again: "Impossible, he won't do such a thing." β
Roger sat back in his chair, poured himself a cup of tea, and said noncommittally: "Yes, a man who has been in the prime of life for two and a half centuries has been imprisoned for two and a half centuries, and when he comes out, what do you think he will do?"
The woman's face changed greatly: "I know him, he will never ......" The words stopped here, and Angel looked at Roger with a straight face: "Little guy, you are very provocative, I underestimate you~" This time the woman finally grasped the point and was not led astray by Roger's language.
The woman reacted, and she saw through Roger's little trick, which was nothing more than using some things she cared about to provoke confusion in her mind, and it was easy to be tricked when she met for the first time, but after being on guard, it was just a little trick in language.
Angel began to look at the little boy sitting on the sofa in front of her, and what caught her attention was not this little trick, but this little trick required him to know enough about himself.
Thinking of this, Angel did not rush to Barnabas, but sat down opposite the boy and gracefully poured herself a cup of tea.
Roger took a sip of tea: "Oops, finally reacted? I expected you to be a little faster than this, it seems that your IQ is not proportional to your age." β
The woman smiled unmoved, and she gracefully picked up the teacup and asked, "You know me well, and you know the entanglement between me and Barnabas very well." β
"It's okay, the bad things between the two of you have affected for so long, it's hard to think about it. Roger replied casually.
"Then you should know that Barnabas abandoned me. β
"yes, because you're a witch and killed his parents and his fiancΓ©e and turned him into a vampire. Roger's tone was flat.
"That's because he abandoned me first!" the woman's tone began to be unkind.
"What about turning Caroline into a werewolf? What about letting Caroline's father run away from home and my mother to die at the bottom of the sea?"
Angel regained her composure: "This has nothing to do with me, this is your family's curse. β
Roger raised an eyebrow, not admitting it?Does that mean he still wants to pursue Barnabas, and wants him to change his mind?
Thinking of this, Roger didn't pursue it further: "It's not you? β
Angel Witch smiled: "Then tell me, little one, how do you know this? As far as I know, none of the things you said should be known by a ten-year-old little guy." β
"You want to know, but why should I tell you?" Roger squinted, his tone flirtatious.
The witch held out a finger and pointed it at Roger: "...... you would say"
The sound of the door opening interrupted Angel's words, and Caroline walked in with headphones and a walkman in hand.
But suddenly, Caroline stopped, took off her headphones, and stared at the people who didn't belong in the room.
The witch smiled and pointed at the girl, "You must be Caroline." She stood up and took a few steps closer to Caroline: "What charming stunners we have all grown to become. β
Caroline stared warily at the witch, her eyes shining dangerously.
Roger shook his head at her, signaling that this was not the right place to do it.
He turned to the witch again: "You go, Barnabas doesn't know when he will be back, it's noon, we don't have anything to eat." β
The witch glanced at Roger and smiled, "Well, when he comes back, you can tell him, I will visit again in the afternoon." After saying that, the witch ignored Caroline's gaze, and Shi Shiran walked past the girl, and was about to open the door and leave.
