There's only one funeral parlor in this town, and Winnie is going there. It's just that before leaving, the Warrens stop the emotionally stressed Jamie.

"What's wrong?" Jamie asked inexplicably.

He had just established that Mary Shaw had really existed, and now he had all the speculations in his head. Thinking that there were fewer and fewer people in the town, I wondered if these people had all died outside because of Mary Shaw's curse. Thinking of this, he was a little panicked, but fortunately, he was not alone in his investigation, and he was surrounded by his wife, friends, and exorcism experts to help him.

"We've found something, and we thought it would be better to tell you that you had prepared for it." Mr. Warren took out his phone and pulled up the chat log from the surveillance video sent by Jamie.

Jamie glanced at the video and Lisa made eye on him, casting a puzzled look at Mr. Warren.

"This woman's back is very similar to your stepmother." Mr. Warren did not talk nonsense and directly stated his guesses.

Hearing this, Jamie and Lisa were shocked, and when they looked at the video, they couldn't help but compare with their stepmother's figure in their hearts, but they didn't say that it was okay, but the more they compared, the more similar they became. Thinking of the way my stepmother tried her best to keep them here not long ago, I couldn't help but feel a chill down my back.

"Why would she do that?" Lisa asked with a pale face.

If it weren't for those nightmares that made her so wary of puppets, she would have died in Mary Shaw's curse by now.

Winnie spoke at this time: "If it is really her, taking the puppet out of Ravensfield all the way without accident can only show that she is colluding with Mary Shaw, otherwise it is impossible to tell why Mary Shaw did not attack her." ”

The Warrens had a car accident on the day they left with the puppets, and some ghosts kill people without a reason or even trigger any killing opportunity, as long as they come into contact with it, they will be killed by it.

Jamie's face was very ugly, he never expected that the person who sent the deadly puppet to their family was actually his stepmother.

Then he remembered another question: "Isn't my father dangerous?" ”

Even if he didn't have a good relationship with his father, Jamie didn't think about asking him to die. If the stepmother was possessed by Mary Shaw, what about his father? Thinking that his father was suddenly paralyzed by a stroke, Jamie had to suspect that his stepmother had done it to bring them back and kill them on Mary Shaw's turf.

After thinking about it, he was angry and afraid, if he agreed to stay in the old house today, he didn't know what would happen. If you don't have any defense, maybe a glass of water will bring them all down.

"Don't panic yet, what matters now is to find out the truth. As long as we investigate the origin of Mary Shaw's curse, we may be able to find a way to restrain her. Telling you this is to warn you of your stepmother, who has always been by your father's side and would have done it if she wanted to. Rowling reassured.

Rowling had a point, and Jamie nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the Walker funeral home now." ”

In any case, they have to investigate the truth, and now the biggest threat is not the stepmother but the evil spirit behind her, Mary Shaw, and the five of them drive to the only funeral home in the small town of Ravensfield again. As if to foreshadow the difficulty of their journey, the sky suddenly darkened, and soon it began to rain.

Jamie looked ahead with a calm face, and the wipers swayed on the front windshield, smearing away the rain that hit the glass. Lisa also became silent along the way, her hand on her lower abdomen, looking out the window at the view. Winnie sat quietly in the back of the car, she only knew part of the truth, but she couldn't reveal it to them, the only thing she could do was to save people in a critical moment.

If you can, you can quietly get rid of Mary Shaw.

The owner of the funeral home is an old man, and this funeral home was inherited from his father's generation, and he is currently the only one left to support it. Now there are fewer and fewer people in the town, and those who leave will only return here when their relatives die, and maybe when all the old people who remain here die, the town will be abandoned.

The two cars stopped in front of the funeral home one after another, and the doorbell rang twice and the door was opened from the inside, and an old man with gray hair looked at them with a puzzled expression: "Jamie? ”

Usually people who come to the funeral home are people who have passed away in the family and come to buy a coffin to tidy up the remains, and after seeing Jamie and Lisa behind him, Henry Sr. has a moment of suspicion that Edward Eisen has died.

Jamie: "Hello Henry, I have something to ask you. This time he didn't ask Mary Shaw directly, fearing that she would be shut out again.

Old Henry slowly moved out of the way: "Okay, please come in." ”

In the living room, a white-haired old woman sat on the sofa, holding a crow doll in her hand and muttering something she didn't know what she was talking about, looking at her as if she was not in a normal state. Even when a group of strangers came into the house, the old woman didn't react, she didn't even raise her head, and she was completely immersed in her own world.

Old Henry beckoned, "Sit down." ”

Jamie was in no mood to catch up, so he turned to old Henry and asked, "Do you know Mary Shaw?" ”

No sooner had Mary Shaw's name been uttered than the old woman muttered a pause, and she looked up at them for the first time. Apparently the name Mary Shaw had a special meaning to the people of the town, even if the old woman was mentally disturbed.

Old Henry, who originally looked relaxed, had a stiff expression: "Why do you ask this?" ”

"I received a puppet a while ago." As Jamie spoke, Mr. Warren, who was sitting on the other side, turned on his phone and pulled up a picture of Billy the puppet.

After seeing this puppet, old Henry leaned back as if frightened, and immediately looked away as if he had been electrocuted. He fidgeted a little, as if he wanted to stand up and sat down on the couch with restraint.

The old woman who had sat there and stopped chattering stood up nervously, and said something in her mouth: "It's her, it's her back." She took her crow doll and walked briskly out of the couch area to the back room, still muttering, "I should hide, hide where she can't find it." ”

"Who's back?" Winnie asked.

Old Henry opened his mouth, his eyes rolling with fear on his face: "No, you shouldn't have this puppet, it should be buried next to her grave." ”

"Where is Mary Shaw buried?" Jamie asked, "How did she die?" Why is there that nursery rhyme? ”

"Shh Old Henry was stimulated by the name to sit up from the couch, and just lifted his ass and sat back again, trying to hide his panic: "We don't usually call her by her name. He said in a low voice.

The last person who couldn't be named was Voldemort, Winnie thought to herself.

"Please, Henry!" Jamie pleaded, "Lisa is pregnant, and she's been having nightmares about having her tongue pulled out by a puppet. ”

Winnie noticed that old Henry's exposed arm immediately developed goosebumps, and the fear in his heart could be seen.

He took a breath and calmed down, and slowly talked about the past of the town's puppet theater under the gaze of five people.
