Knowing the source of the curse is much easier to solve, and if the Warrens are sure of the existence of the curse, they can apply to the Holy See for an exorcism. Mary Shaw is not possessed by humans, so there will be much less scruples in the exorcism process, and the application will be approved quickly. In this case, the Warrens can deal with the evil spirits before writing a report, and they don't even need to wait for the reaction from the Holy See.

But since it is an expatriate mission of the Holy See, the process still has to be followed.

In addition to that, it is necessary to investigate who put the puppet on Eisen's doorstep, and the fact that someone wants to harm them is true, even if the evil spirit is solved by the Eisens, they will not feel at ease.

Through his connections and money, Jamie gets his hands on a video of a woman placing a puppet on Eisen's doorstep. When Jamie opened the door, the woman hid behind the wall on the other side of the house. The couple watched the video and studied it for a long time, but they did not find an acquaintance in their memory.

"We don't know her." Lisa affirmed.

Although the woman in the surveillance video is wearing a hat, judging from the back and figure, she is not a familiar person in their lives.

"I suspect she's from the small town of Ravensfield." Winnie, who had been silent, suddenly said, "The nursery rhyme is only circulated in the mouths of the children of the small town of Ravensfield, and there must be a reason for this, probably related to Mary Shaw." We should figure out where Mary Shaw's curse came from, and the threat comes from Mary Shaw, and if just burning the puppets won't solve the problem. ”

"That's right." Rowling nodded, "But if Mary Shaw can only use this puppet to move, sealing the puppet is tying her hands and feet." ”

In the Warrens' supernatural collection room, many cursed items are sealed, and evil spirits are still stored in the items. Compared to the difficulty of killing evil spirits, expelling demons and sealing evil spirits are more commonly used by them. Even if Rowling was born with yin and yang eyes, in fact she is still a human being, and she does not have the power to kill evil spirits, unless that evil spirit has something to restrain it.

So instead of going to the remote town of Ravensfield to trace their roots, the Warrens are more inclined to seal the puppets. And it was sealed when Mary Shaw was possessed by the puppet.

Now that the world's professional exorcists have given solutions, Winnie, a "layman", is no longer talkative. She just didn't want these things to appear in her life to bother her again, and Winnie didn't really care how to deal with Mary Shaw. Now I just hope that the exorcist couple's plan will succeed.

Mr. Warren puts the puppet Billy back into the crate and leaves with it.

Standing in the garden and watching the Warrens' car drive away, Lisa breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's finally settled." ”

But Jamie's brow was still furrowed, and they hadn't yet found out the identity of the woman who had placed the puppet on their doorstep. A person who is full of malice towards them is still hiding in the shadows, which makes Jamie unable to reassure.

Lisa, on the other hand, seemed to be back to her old liveliness, and she turned to Winnie and smiled and said, "Come to my house tonight!" I must thank you so much! ”

Winnie winked and smiled, "I'm already looking forward to it now." ”

Lisa grabbed Jamie's hand and walked in the direction of home: "Quick, while it's not dark yet, let's go grocery shopping." ”

It was getting dark, and the Warrens were driving home. Rowling sat in the passenger seat and looked up in the rearview mirror from time to time, and the box containing the puppet Billy was in their trunk.

"You can sleep for a while." Mr. Warren, who was driving, said.

Rowling pinched her eyebrows and looked tired: "I can't take them lightly, I can only feel at ease if I seal them." ”

In the darkness, a puppet was lying quietly in a small wooden box, its eyes suddenly turning in the direction of the sound, and a dry hand silently stretched out from the puppet's body.

The car that was moving smoothly away suddenly slammed in one direction and drove towards the side of the road as if it were out of control. The screech of brakes lengthened through the space, returning to silence after a "bang-" thud.

……

After the Warrens took the puppets away, the Eisens lived a peaceful life, Jamie returned to work the next day, and Winnie continued to learn to drive in order to get her driver's license as soon as possible.

Today Winnie came back on the bus, wearing a goose-yellow dress and holding a parasol and getting off the bus under the gaze of passengers. When the bus went forward again, the men and women sitting in the bus whispered about the beautiful girl just now.

The weather was hot, the scorching temperature baked the air and distorted, and the bus stop was still some distance from Winnie's house, and she walked briskly in the direction of home with her umbrella, and she was sweating hot not long after she stepped off the bus.

"Crunch—"

A bicycle that burst out of the corner almost hit Winnie, and Winnie raised her umbrella to look, and the boy on the bicycle was obviously startled.

"I'm sorry!"

The boy who wanted to slip away after apologizing was stunned for a moment after seeing Winnie's face, and suddenly spoke: "I don't seem to have seen you." ”

"You still know everyone in this town?" Winnie asked with a smile.

"Of course." The boy wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I grew up here. After speaking, he patted the handrail of the bicycle: "I've been to many places, even if I don't know the name, I've seen faces." ”

"Well, I moved here recently." Winnie said.

The boy thought for a moment and said, "Oh, I know, the family moved here recently. He pointed to the bus stop not far away, meaning that Winnie lived nearby.

Winnie felt the tip of her nose start to sweat and didn't want to stand in the sun with a child she didn't know, so she smiled and said goodbye to him: "Goodbye, little friend who knows a lot of people." ”

The boy pursed his lips, apparently disliking the term "little friend": "My name is Daniel Coleman. ”

"Yes, Mr. Coleman." Winnie waved at him and walked away.

Daniel wiped the sweat from his forehead again, his cheeks were already red from the sun, and he regretted that he didn't wear a hat when he came out. He pedaled the scooter and drove forward, riding for about ten minutes before stopping in front of a large house.

Although the houses on the streets of the town are different, they are all about the same size, the same orientation, the same specifications, and all of them are neat and tidy. The Colemans' house was built a little further from the street, not in the center of the town, so it was built very large, and it looked like a rich man's house.

He leaned his bicycle against the wall of the garage and rushed into the house like a gust of wind, aiming for the large refrigerator in the kitchen. The cooler door opened, and Daniel pulled out the ice cream drawer and picked out his favorite flavor.

Grandma, who heard the movement, got up from the sofa in the living room and walked over, looked at Daniel and said, "Don't eat anything so cold when your body is so hot, be careful of your stomach." ”

Daniel didn't pay attention to this, and ran upstairs with his ice cream. At this time, a little girl of five or six years old came out of her room, and when she saw her brother, she gestured with her hand to say hello.

Daniel glanced at his sister, nodded absentmindedly at her, and headed to his room.

The little girl watched her brother go back to the room with no special emotion on her face. Because she is deaf and mute, she can rarely play with her brother, so she has long been accustomed to her cold attitude towards her brother. But because of this, she is looking forward to having a sister who can play together.

……

Only two days after the peaceful routine, and just when they thought they could forget Mary Shaw's curse, the Eisen family received a call from the Warrens. They learn from the phone that the Warrens were in a car accident on their way home that night, and they were found and taken to the hospital, but fortunately, although the injuries were not serious, the puppet Billy had been placed in the collection room by them, waiting for Mary Shaw to possess the puppet and seal it.

Mr. Warren said on the other end of the phone: "The woman who gave you the puppet has not been found, so recently be wary of the sudden appearance of the courier, lock the doors and windows, and no one can guarantee that Mary Shaw will not possess another puppet." ”

Lisa, who leaned next to her husband and listened to the phone, looked worried, if Mary Shaw couldn't be sealed, would they have to live in fear for the rest of their lives?

"Thank you, please let us know if you seal Mary Shaw." Jamie said.

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Lisa hugged Jamie and said lowly, "Fortunately, the Warrens are fine...... Who is it that wants to kill me? "Obviously, she has always been kind to people, and she rarely has conflicts with people, why did that woman want to kill her?

Jamie's heart was also very heavy, he gently kissed his wife's forehead and said, "I will protect you, and in the future, you should close the doors and windows at home or when you go out, and wait until the matter is over." ”

Lisa nodded, "Okay." ”

Winnie is also keeping an eye on the movement next door after learning from Lisa that Mary Shaw has not been sealed. Fortunately, Mary Shaw had to use puppets even if she wanted to move remotely, and the puppets had already been taken away by the Warrens, and it couldn't harass the Eisen family by dealing with experienced exorcists like the Warrens.

In order to catch the man, Jamie also installed a surveillance camera in front of his house and waited for the woman to come to the door again.

As a result, before waiting for the good news from the Warrens, Jamie first received a call from his hometown.
