Chapter 430: Murder

Xu Mo suddenly scolded, "Don't struggle anymore, come in." ”

With this shout, Tess felt the speed at which the demon was being sucked in suddenly increased. Faintly, she seemed to hear a sharp exclamation.

Immediately after, an extremely strong suction burst out from the bottle, and the demon was sucked into the vial in its entirety.

Tess had an incredible look on her face, and for a moment, she thought she was dazzled. I blinked, and when I looked again, I realized that the demon was still on the mural, as if it had never moved.

"Xu, what did you do?" Tess couldn't help but ask.

At this time, Xu Mo had already taken the vial down and plugged it with a stopper. He put it in his hand and said to Tess, "Look at that picture again, Tess." ”

"Oh!" Tess looked at the picture, and was taken aback again, because the blood stains on the devil's fork on the picture were gone.

"Why is this happening?" said Tessage.

Xu Mo said: "The demon is still there, but the demon in Fils's heart is no longer there." ”

"I don't understand, Xu. Tess was so confused that she couldn't help but ask.

At this time, Jarris suddenly cried out, "God, he ...... He...... Come and see. ”

Tess heard Jarris's voice, and hurriedly turned her head to look at Fils, who was relieved at this glance, Fils seemed to have calmed down, and the whole person looked much calmer. Obviously, Xu Mo's arrest of the demon has already had a certain impact on him.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. I feel that my heart seems to be much lighter all of a sudden.

"Is he healed? Tess asked Xu Mo again.

Xu Mo walked over to Firs, stared at him carefully, and then shook his head, "It's still early, it's just the beginning." ”

"Hell!" Jarris couldn't help but curse, the scene just now was really impressive to him, like a nightmare. For a certain period of time. He was even frightened, hearing Xu Mo say that it had just begun, and his face couldn't help but show a look of cringe and fear again.

Tess was also taken aback and looked at Fils. Look at Mark. Look at Fili again. Then he glanced at Old Lady Seth, and then scolded, "Why did this old lady hurt them in her dreams?"

Xu Mo shook his head and said, "You're mistaken. Tess, Old Lady Seth didn't hurt them. ”

"No?" Tess was stunned again, "Didn't they have their nightmares?"

"Nightmares are indeed caused by Old Lady Seth, and they wouldn't have dreamed like this without Old Lady Seth's influence. When Xu Mo said this, his tone suddenly changed, "It's just that in Old Lady Seth's dream, the demon didn't harm anyone. Demons harm people, in fact, Mark, Fils, and Fili are their own ideas. To be precise, it is they themselves who instinctively think that the demon will harm them as soon as they see it. ”

"The demon was indeed created by Old Lady Seth, but when it came to their consciousness, they created a new soul for the demon. That's why I say, in the final analysis, it's themselves who harm themselves. ”

"That's right!" Tess didn't quite understand, but nodded.

After a while, she said, "What should we do now?"

Xu Modao: "Wherever you take them, it's the same, no matter where you go, Old Lady Seth can also influence them." ”

"Hell, what do you say?" said Jarris.

"Tess. Xu Mo suddenly called Tess.

"What's wrong? Tess hurriedly agreed.

Xu Mo said solemnly: "I need you to help me do something." ”

"What's the matter?" asked Tess.

Xu Mo instructed: "I need you to go to Mrs. Seth's apartment, use your mobile phone, and take pictures of the demon patterns in the common areas of the apartment and in Mark's room, can you do it?"

If he wants to communicate with the demons in the demon world, he must see the pattern of the demon with his own eyes, if he can't see anything, he imagines it out of thin air, even if he communicates, it is not the same as the demon that affected Fils.

"Apartment?" Tess couldn't help but hesitate a little, if she hadn't experienced these things now, it would have been fine, these things at the moment made her feel a little in awe of that apartment from the bottom of her heart, and she didn't want to approach.

"It doesn't matter, Tess, as long as you're not afraid, nothing can hurt you. Xu Mo stretched out his hands and pressed Tess's shoulders and looked her in the eye, hoping to give her some confidence.

"But. Tess was still a little hesitant, listened to Xu Mo's words, and said, "Xu, what you said is true? As long as I am not afraid, the demon will have nothing to do with me." ”

"It's true. Xu Mo smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what I said to you?" Tess, all demons are the products of man's own subconscious, and they are false forms of existence, and in reality, it is impossible to exist in existence. Demons harm people, that's because you imagine that the demon will harm you. Think of them, Tess. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to Firth and continued: "Firs was injured because of his own subconscious, his own subconscious thought that he was injured, and his subconscious mind controlled the cracking of the flesh and skin, causing scars, all of which were his own reasons. The demon was created by the old lady Seth and affected the three of them, but the demon created by the old lady Seth, although it affected them, did not mean to harm them, it was they who thought that the demon would harm them, so they gave the demon the factor that would harm them, so they suffered damage. If they hadn't thought that way, it wouldn't have happened, and it wouldn't have happened today, you know what I mean? ”

Tess nodded hurriedly, "Xu, I understand what you mean, but ...... But ......"

Tess frowned again as she spoke. "I also want not to be afraid, but I always can't help but feel scared, I can't control myself, Xu. ”

When Xu Mo heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "I see, I understand, okay." ”

Xu Mo said, plucking a hair from his head, "Tess." In case of danger. No matter what danger it is, no matter how powerful the demon is, as long as you have this hair, you can save your life. You hold it. No demon in the world can come near you. ”

Tess will be skeptical. "Is that true? ”

"Of course it's true. Xu Mo did not hesitate. He even gave an example: "Didn't you see it just now? I used that bottle to put away the demon in Fils's heart." As you can see, I'm not an ordinary person. Isn't it? Tess. ”

Hearing this, Tess looked at Xu Mo and couldn't help but nodded.

Xu Mo continued: "This hair was plucked from my head, so if I say that it has that function, it must have that function." I'm not going to lie to you, put it away, Tess. ”

Tess then took the hair, thought about it, and took out a necklace hanging around her neck, the pendant of the necklace was a small golden pendant, very delicately made, with a lid on the top, Tess opened the lid, the inside was empty, and Xu Mo's hair was clumped, stuffed inside, and then closed the lid again, and hung the necklace back around her neck.

After doing this, he glanced at Xu Mo deeply, "If this is really the case, I will rest assured." ”

Xu Mo nodded, continuing to strengthen Tess's inner belief, "No matter what, remember, Tess, no matter what danger you encounter, in your dreams, this pendant can save you." ”

"I see, Xu. Tess nodded repeatedly, "I'll go." ”

"Go ahead. Xu Mo glanced at her deeply, and then commanded.

Tess then took the keys to the three of Mark, turned and walked out. Out of the living room, down downstairs, Jennifer was still sitting in the hall, and the three children ran out to see the mural.

Seeing Tess, the three children hurried over and ran to Tess's side.

Leon said, "Mom, you're finally out, where is Uncle Xu?"

Tess said: "Uncle Xu is still on it, Leon, Angela, and Angela, I'm going out to do something, you wait here quietly, don't go away, if something happens, call Uncle Xu, you know?"

"Got it, Mom. Leon replied.

Angelbella asked, "Mom, what are you going to do?"

Tess said, "Uncle Xu asked me to go out and do something, Angela, don't ask." Stay here and take care of your brother, you know?"

"Got it, Mom. Angela replied.

Angela said, "Mother Tess, goodbye." ”

"Well, goodbye. Tess replied, and hurried out the door.

It wasn't until she walked to the courtyard gate and saw the closed courtyard door that she remembered that only Mrs. Seth knew how to open this courtyard door, and now that Mrs. Seth was asleep, how could she get out?

She was about to go back and ask Xu Mo about it, but the courtyard door suddenly opened, and Xu Mo's voice came from the intercom, "Go quickly, Tess, time is pressing." ”

Tess didn't have time to think about how Xu Mo opened the courtyard door for a while, so she agreed, walked out of the courtyard gate, and walked out.

As soon as she went out, she hurried to Mrs. Seth's apartment.

Coming out of Old Lady Seth's house was a north-south avenue, and along that avenue, there was a short road, and there was another east-west road.

Tess's home is on this east-west road.

The location of the apartment, after crossing the east-west road, will continue along the north-south road.

In the meantime, there is a park in Guò, which is the garden that Fils dreamed of just now.

After the garden, it's the apartment.

It's complicated to say, but in fact, there is not much way to walk, and Tess trots over.

When he came to the east-west road, he glanced in the direction of his house, and did not stop, but continued to walk along the north-south road.

When I saw the garden, I suddenly heard the sound of a police car, and when I looked forward, I found that some parts of the park had been sealed off by the police and forbidden to approach.

A large crowd of people gathered around it, several police officers were questioning nearby residents, and even reporters had arrived and were interviewing people one by one.

Tess was taken aback and said secretly: What happened?

I was amazed. One of the police officers also saw her and shouted, "Ms. Acheson, Ms. Acheson." ”

Tess saw the man at a glance and hurriedly asked, "Officer Bacon, what happened?"

This policeman is the officer Bacon I met when I went out just now.

Officer Bacon then walked over to Tess, and a policeman approached her, as if to ask Rose a few words, and Officer Bacon raised his hand. He said to the policeman, "This is the resident here." I know, let me do it. ”

The policeman nodded, and walked away, handing Tess over to Officer Bacon.

Tess asked again, "Officer Bacon." What happened?"

The policeman said with a sad face: "There was a girl in a bar who was killed. He died a miserable death. The heads were all cut off. ”

When Tess heard this, she couldn't help but be taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "So vicious." Who did it? Did you catch it?"

Officer Bacon said, "It's still investigating, that's right." Suddenly he remembered something, and looked behind Tess, "What about Xu from Country C? Ms. Acheson?"

"He's at Old Lady Seth's house. Tess replied subconsciously.

"Old Lady Seth, that weird old lady, hasn't he slept yet?" asked Officer Bacon in passing.

Almost everyone here knows about Old Lady Seth going to bed early.

"Just fell asleep. Tess casually said, "It's Jarris talking to Xu." ”

Officer Bacon knew about Jarris, so he didn't suspect it, and continued: "Did Old Lady Seth agree to rent the house to Xu? By the way, I forgot to mention that this girl just now was also a resident of Old Lady Seth's apartment before." ”

When Tess heard this, her heart suddenly jumped, "What, she...... She is also a resident of Mrs. Seth's apartment. ”

"What's the problem? Ms. Acheson. Officer Bacon asked, confused.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, it's just weird, old lady Seth, it's always weird, hasn't it?"

"Yes, she has always been a strange old lady, and it is really difficult for ordinary people to get along with her. Officer Bacon clearly agrees.

Tess deliberately made the topic more light, and said, "But when Old Lady Seth talks to Xu, she is very speculative. ”

"Really?" replied Officer Bacon, "there must be a special way, otherwise it would be impossible to please the old lady." ”

Of course, Xu Mo has a special method, and Tess has also seen it with her own eyes. However, on this topic, she no longer wanted to continue to dwell on Officer Bacon, and asked again: "Officer Bacon, when did that tenant live in Mrs. Seth's apartment?"

Officer Bacon said: "I think it was the year before last, I lived there for almost a year, and in the year after I moved out, this girl somehow contracted some very bad habits, often drank heavily, said some crazy things, and some people called her a madman." ”

"Oh, what did she say?" Tess couldn't help but jump again.

"Demons or something. Officer Bacon replied casually, then glanced at Tess, and said meaningfully, "Does Miss Acheson seem to be interested in her affairs?"

"Oh! I'm just asking. Tess was startled and quickly changed the subject, but for no reason she remembered the girl whose head was cut off by the demon that Xu Mo had told her in Fils's dream.

"Miss Acheson, have you seen any suspicious people before?" Tess was an old resident of the neighborhood, and Officer Bacon knew her well, so he did not suspect that the girl's death would have anything to do with Tess, and after thinking about it, he asked Tess.

"Suspicious people?" Tess quickly shook her head, "Not really." ”

Officer Bacon then asked, "Have you heard anything happening?"

Tess said, "No, I've been at Mrs. Seth's house just now, and I've just come out and come here." ”

Officer Bacon let out an 'oh' and asked, "Where are you going, Ms. Acheson?"

Tess said, "Go to Old Lady Seth's apartment and get something." ”

"Is it in Old Lady Seth's apartment that she told you to get it?" asked Officer Bacon again.

"No, Mrs. Seth is already asleep, and it was actually Xu who asked me to get something. Tess replied.

"Xu, Xu is staying in Old Lady Seth's apartment so soon?" said Officer Bacon, puzzled.

"No, I was allowed to take it, but it was Mark, Fils, and Fili. Do you know them? Officer Bacon. Tess asked, pretending to be light-hearted.

"Mark, Fils, Fili, it turned out to be the three of them. "Officer Bacon certainly knew about these three men, and not long ago he had just mediated their dispute with Old Lady Seth.

Tess said, "The three of them are also at Mrs. Seth's house." ”

"Still trying to get out of the house?" asked Officer Bacon.

"No, the three of them mean, they just want to decorate the house, you know, those demon patterns in Old Lady Seth's apartment, it's really scary. Tess rejects Officer Bacon's words.

"That's just as well. Officer Bacon nodded. He was still a little suspicious that Tess was deceiving himself, of course, doubts did not mean that he suspected Tess had something to do with the murder, in fact, Officer Bacon did not suspect Tess at all about this murder.

His doubts were just that he felt that there was something wrong with Tess, hiding it from him. Hearing these words, my doubts were dispelled at once.

But Tess continued: "Old Lady Seth is already asleep, let Jarris and Mark negotiate with the three of them, and Xu just wants to rent a house, so he will sit and listen." When it comes to apartments, Mark and they all strongly advise them not to rent them, and I actually agree with their statement, the demons in Mrs. Seth's house are really terrible. So I quietly came out and prepared to go to Mrs. Seth's apartment, take some pictures of demons, and show them to Xu, hoping to dispel his idea of renting. ”

"That's right. At this point, Tess suddenly remembered something, "That girl is crazy, I'm afraid it has something to do with the demon in the apartment." (To be continued......)
