262 Calls for help
Jimmy was resting on the bench, the backup phone rang suddenly, he glanced at it, it was Justin, hung up the phone directly, got up and walked to a lawn where no one was around, he took out the bearer phone he bought in the morning and called Justin back.
Jimmy: "Justin, is there a result?" ”
Justin: "Well, I got some news from the Suffolk County Police Department, I think I should let you know first, and I'll have to wait for the rest of the news." ”
Jimmy: "What's the news?" ”
Justin: "The police found a total of 4 people from the house, all of them died, the forensic doctor determined that they died of cardiac arrest caused by asphyxiation, the time of death is unknown, it is presumed to be 7 to 8 o'clock yesterday morning, there are no clear signs of injury on the body, it has not been determined what caused the 4 people to die of suffocation at the same time, the forensic doctor is conducting a drug test, and there are no results yet." ”
Jimmy: "Choking at the same time?" Are you sure? Roman said that he had two bodyguards, and as bodyguards, they were physically strong, how could they suffocate at the same time and not resist? ”
Justin: "That's the preliminary conclusion now, so now the case has been blocked, and it will not be released until the medical examiner's drug test determines whether it is due to some special substance." ”
Jimmy: "I see, I'll be told as soon as I have other news, I've been into their house too, and I'm in danger if there's a problem. ”
Justin: "I know, so I'll let you know as soon as I get the news." Let's go ahead and inquire. ”
Jimmy said goodbye to Justin and hung up the phone, he just said that he was also dangerous, in fact, that's what he said, if there is no accident, the Roman couple should have something to do with that "thing" in the basement, if there is a supernatural case, the means that inhuman can understand can be explained.
Jimmy thought for a moment, he used his normal cell phone to call the county police boss James and asked for Father Reut's phone number, after which Jimmy called Father Reuter directly.
Jimmy: "Good afternoon, Father Reut, I'm Jimmy Young, a former county sheriff. ”
Father Reuter: "Oh, Jimmy, I haven't heard from you for a long time, how are you doing?" ”
Jimmy: "Father, I've left the county sheriff, joined the FBI, and now work in New York. ”
Fr. Reuter: "Congratulations, did you call for something?" ”
Jimmy: "Father, I've been to your ceremony before, do you still have any impressions?" ”
Fr. Reutte: "Well, go on. ”
Jimmy: "I found an anomalous case here in New York, and maybe, just my guess, it may have something to do with some incident, where five people died of suffocation almost at the same time, two of them were bodyguards. ”
Fr. Reuter: "I'm sorry, I'm just a little priest here in Little Rock, I don't know anything about New York, if nothing else, then goodbye." ”
Jimmy: "Wait, wait, Father, this is really abnormal, I need your help, for James's sake, help me, at least tell me what to do next?" ”
Father Reut was silent for a moment, then said, "I'll give you a phone number, you can contact him." ”
Then Father Reuter gave a phone number and hung up. Luckily, Jimmy had a lot of mobile phones, so he used another phone to write down the phone number and dialed that number.
The phone was connected, but there was no speech on the other side, and Jimmy could hear the other person's breathing through the receiver, "Hello, is this Evan?" Father Reut of Little Rock gave me your contact information. ”
Evan: "Go on. ”
Jimmy: "I'm in New York, there's a suspected paranormal case here, and I'd like your help. ”
Evan: "No time, I'm not in New York." Good bye. ”
Jimmy: "Wait, wait, Evan, Father Reuter gave me your contact information, just to hope that I can find your help, for the sake of the priest, at least give me a chance to meet." ”
Evan was silent for a few seconds, "I'm in DC, if you can come over today, come to me." ”
Evan reported an address, and then hung up the phone, Jimmy also hung up the phone, from New York to Washington, D.C. is about 300 kilometers, it's still afternoon, the time should be no problem, it's rare to find a person on the supernatural side, the priest was not so polite to Jimmy before, if it wasn't for James, it is estimated that the priest hung up the phone when he received Jimmy's call.
Jimmy looked at the time, fortunately, the rented car had not been returned, Jimmy left Central Park, got into the car and started driving towards Washington, DC. Fortunately, although Jimmy didn't go out in a suit, he would at least carry a revolver and 6 rounds of ammunition with him, as well as his wallet, FBI ID, and drive to DC to protect himself, and although it was a vacation, the FBI ID and badge were valid, and it would definitely be okay to drive around with a gun.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Jimmy came to Rock Creek Park northwest of Washington, DC, but it was troublesome to find Evan's location, the current map is not as detailed as the mobile phone map many years later, Jimmy asked for directions while driving, and finally found a camp in the park, there are many RV parking here, although it is not a standard RV camp, but it seems that many people have taken this place as an RV camp temporarily.
Jimmy pulls over to the side of the road and walks to an RV with a bald eagle painted on it. The RV is a Type B trailer with a black F150 pickup truck in front, but it doesn't look like Evan has any intention of staying here, so the pickup and RV are not separated, but are parked directly together at the campsite.
The length of the RV compartment is about 8 meters, compared to the C-type small RV that is generally only about 5 meters long, this B-type RV is much larger, of course, this also means that the available space and comfort inside are much higher, this kind of trailer-mounted RV can be placed horizontally in the front of a wide master bedroom, and the remaining space can basically be loaded into the equipment needed for daily life, and it will not be too cramped to live in it for a long time.
Evan's RV was parked, the side awning had not been retracted, and two brackets supported the awning, and a table and a folding recliner were placed underneath, but no one was sitting on it now.
Jimmy came to the RV and knocked on the door, he had already seen Evan inside, speaking of which, the heart eye is a bug for this kind of basic reconnaissance, and there will never be a situation where Jimmy went to knock on the door and waited for a long time to find that there was no one in the house.
Evan got up and opened the door, and Jimmy raised his hand in greeting, "Good evening, Evan." ”
Evan: "Come in. ”
Jimmy followed Evan into the RV, Evan is a middle-aged white man, although he has a big beard, but his face does not have the wrinkles of the old man, so he is certainly not very old, maybe it is rest time, Evan is wearing a T-shirt and big pants, and a pair of slippers on his feet.
The RV looked like a regular RV, and Jimmy was expecting to see an RV that looked like an arsenal.
Jimmy sits on the half-curved couch, and Evan takes a can of Coke from the fridge next to him and pushes it to Jimmy on the table.
Evan: "Tell me, what's the matter with me?" ”
Jimmy didn't touch the Coke in front of him, looked at Evan and said, "I have participated in Father Reut's exorcism before, and then I have learned some supernatural things, but I am not an exorcist. Two days ago, there was a very strange situation in a case, all 4 people died of cardiac arrest due to suffocation, and the forensic doctor identified them as dying at the same time, 2 of these four people were bodyguards, and they didn't even have any resistance. ”
Evan: "It's not uncommon, and there are a lot of things that can do it, like nerve agents. ”
Jimmy shook his head: "The reason why this situation is abnormal is because before they died, I was entrusted to help the deceased investigate a lost necklace, an emerald and gemstone necklace, which belonged to his grandmother and was passed down for generations.
The necklace was usually stored in the safe, but it suddenly disappeared 2 days ago, and I did a preliminary investigation on the spot, but I didn't find any clues.
But I found a little abnormality at the scene, the wall behind the safe, there is a not wide range, the temperature of the wall is very low, and this situation extends from the second floor all the way down, the wall on the first floor is the same, only the narrow wall behind the safe has this situation, and the wall about one meter apart is the normal temperature.
The villa house was an old house, it should be more than a hundred years old, and I knew that there was a basement there, but before I could check it, the owner and his bodyguard servant were already dead. ”
Jimmy can only say that he knows that there is a basement over there, but he can't say that he found it, and his abilities are still as unexposed as possible.
Evan shook his head: "This doesn't mean that there was a supernatural event there, it's just that maybe the forensic doctor didn't detect it, okay, you've seen me too, let's go, I have other things to deal with, I don't have time to go to New York to deal with this kind of thing now." ”
With that, Evan got up and prepared to see Jimmy off.
Jimmy put his left hand on the table, leaned forward, looked at Evan and said, "What if I found a smoke-like anomaly?" Like the kind of demon that is exorcised from a possessed person in an exorcism ritual. ”
Evan sat back down, "Can you see the etherealized spirits?" ”
Jimmy sat back up, "Yes, I can see the ethereal spirits you mentioned during the exorcism, and I can see the evil spirits that were reassembled when they were finally dispersed. ”
Evan: "Looks like you're very talented, too. Are you sure you've seen the ethereal spirit in that house? ”
Jimmy: "OK, I did see it, but the other 4 people in the house didn't seem to feel it at all, I was leaving, going back to get the equipment and reagents, and the next day to check if someone had opened the safe and checked for fingerprints, but before I could check, they were all dead, very weirdly dead at the same time."
I'll admit I may be a bit arbitrary, but I'm convinced that there must have been a paranormal event there, and that there must be something wrong with that erratic smoke. Because the scene had been cordoned off by the police, I had no way to do any further investigation, so I had to turn to Father Reut, who couldn't come to New York right now, so gave me your phone number and asked me to contact you. ”
Jimmy changed Father Reuter's meaning slightly, but he was telling the truth, not a half-truth, but to Evan, it was Father Reuter who couldn't help Jimmy because he was too busy with business, so he asked him to help.
Evan looked a little entangled, and was silent for a while, but Evan still shook his head: "No, I don't have time to go over now, I'm just resting here today, and I'll leave for Tennessee tomorrow, I can't help with your business." ”
Jimmy let out a long sigh and leaned back on the back of the couch. "It seems that there is really no way, but unfortunately, I can't complete the task entrusted by others."
Evan looked at Jimmy: "You've been talking about the case before, you're a law enforcement officer?" ”
Jimmy: "FBI agent. Jimmy sat up straight, "Evan, can I ask you for one thing?" ”
Evan nodded, "You say." ”
Jimmy: "I'd like to know a little bit about the paranormal and how to deal with them. ”
Evan shook his head: "To deal with demons and evil spirits, it takes a lot of training, as well as the corresponding demon slaying weapons. You just have talent to see, you haven't been trained rigorously, and the best way to meet them is to run, away from them, the farther away the better. ”
Jimmy: "Evan, you said I'm talented, at least tell me something, at least give me a little bit of self-preservation." ”
Evan stood up and said, "Come with me." ”
Evan walked to the back of the RV and pulled open a wardrobe, which was not a wardrobe, it contained a variety of weapons, knives, daggers, swords, axes, maces with spikes, and a triangular shield and a large shield leaning against the cabinet, and some chains and ropes were placed underneath the cabinet.
Jimmy: "All cold weapons? ”
Evan: "Yes, these are cold weapons with a legacy, and they are also the most effective weapons. ”
Evan picked up a long-handled axe, "This axe is the trophy of my war, an executioner who lives in the jungles of South Dakota, he used this axe to dismember 6 people, the local police found him when they were tracking down the disappearance, they thought he was just an ordinary serial murderer, but in fact he was possessed by evil spirits." I happened to pass through there, and after killing him, I got this axe. This axe is now a qualified demon exorcism weapon because it has been in contact with the power of evil spirits. ”
Evan put down the axe and picked up another dagger, "This dagger is from a killer, he used this dagger to assassinate more than 40 people, although he was not possessed, but this weapon has become a killing blade, it is also quite lethal to soul spirits, but for physical demons, the effect is very poor, because he can't break through the hard skin of physical demons." ”
Evan pointed to the long sword and other weapons inside, "These are former killing blades, and their original owners have used their own will and the people or monsters they have killed in their long-term use to inject strong killing intent into these weapons, making them demon-slaying weapons." ”
Jimmy: "Can only the Killing Blade be a demon-slaying weapon?" ”
Evan: "Of course not, religious relics, objects of faith, or weapons infused with energy by other means can all become exorcist weapons, in fact, the easiest to obtain exorcist weapons is the Holy See's enchanted weapons, in which the high-ranking priests inject a strong sense of faith.
It's a pity that this kind of weapon will only be given to those who cooperate with the Holy See, and people like me don't have a chance to get it. ”
