Before leaving the room, Chen ang glanced at Nick's doll head hanging on his waist and had to remind him, "throw that thing away!"

"Why?" Nick wondered, "didn't you ask me to see these things with my own eyes? I still want to take it back to the bureau!"

"Will you put this back on the poor man!" Chen ang sighed.

"We're here to investigate, not to dismantle the house. It's hard for me to explain to the two homeowners like you!"

Nick said with a smile, "but they are not the homeowners, are they? They are just two bandits who occupy the dove's nest, parasitize in this house, turn this place into their magic cave, and devour one innocent person after another who have been lured by them."

Chen ang grabbed Nick's head and put it back on the plastic doll. He walked out of the room with a flashlight. It was dark in the corridor. Chen ang took a flashlight and took photos everywhere. They checked the rooms on the first floor one by one and found a room with traces of people living in it. There was also a tortured doll in it. It had been torn apart, All parts of the body are hidden in hidden corners of the room.

It was a Barbie doll. It was only about 40 cm tall and had been torn down.

Nick felt his head from under the bed. On Nick's hand, his big moving eyes blinked. A little girl's laughter suddenly came out of the silent room.

It's a child of six or seven years old who hasn't changed his voice.

The sound came from the corridor. When Chen ang heard it, she quickly opened the door. They saw a petite figure in a white dress flash past the corridor. She ran quickly through the corridor in the ladies' and children's clothes of the golden age and disappeared at the turning point of the corridor.

Nick asked calmly, "what do you think that thing is?"

"Relax, Nick!" Chen ang said calmly. "Maybe she just wants to play hide and seek with us!"

There was nothing unusual in the back rooms. When they got to the last room in the corridor, they came back again. The room was close to the stairs. When Nick and Chen ang came in, they found that the house was a room often used by the couple, so they kept it until the end.

There are some ordinary things inside. If there is any difference, it is a little more breath of life. There are many old photos on the cabinet next to the door, as well as some small ornaments - Copper peacocks, old alarm clocks, and oil paintings on the wall.

Chen ang picked up the photo frame containing old photos. The black-and-white photos on it have been for some years. They have turned yellow, and some photo papers are beginning to be brittle. The photo shows two young children wearing the clothes of the last century - also known as the golden age.

Nick suddenly noticed the white dress the girl was wearing in the picture.

He opened his mouth: "Er! Isn't this the child who just played games with us?" Chen ang opened the drawer under the cabinet. There were a lot of old sundries in it, but Chen ang noticed a black book at a glance. He took out a small black book and sat down in the next chair to read it.

The beginning is very concise and clear——

"Quitting my job as a nurse and coming to the terib parish as a nurse may be one of the craziest decisions of my life. My friends say I'm crazy. The terib parish is notorious here - because of religion, ignorance and conservatism. But I can't stand the indifference of the hospital. We send away the patients, which looks like throwing away the garbage we don't use at home."

"I decided to do something more meaningful. After all, I'm only 25 years old. What's wrong with changing?"

Chen ang continued to read, skimming over some meaningless words, and their familiar names suddenly appeared in the middle.

"Lawyer Luke is a little too enthusiastic about the hostess here. It's like having an affair!"

When Nick saw this, he whispered, "25 years old and lawyer Luke... We seem to have turned to her old diary. Caroline Ellis, 25, looks very different from Caroline Ellis we've met. Is there such a person in time?"

Chen ang continued to turn - "my employers are violet and Ben devrieux. Ben was seriously ill and he had a stroke in bed, so Violette asked me to take care of him at a high price. But Ben saw me in pain and his eyes seemed to say something to me."

After a long inner monologue, the diary wrote: "the former owners of the house are a pair of brothers and sisters, Martin and grace. They are the children of bankers and inherited the house from their parents. However, they live alone and unmarried all their lives. If I say two lone men and few women, even if they live together all their lives, what good conjecture will it cause..."

"God forgive me! I shouldn't think so dirty."

Nick picked up the old photos on the table. They should be Martin and grace, but another photo fell out behind the photo frame. Nick picked it up and found that it was the photo of Martin and grace when they were young, but behind them stood a black couple. They stood behind their brothers and sisters like servants. Behind the photo was written - father jastifa and mother Selsey.

Nick laughed: "black servants again, you know? Many rich whites in America grew up under the care of black servants. They call them father, mother, uncle and aunt. However, they are not soft when they sell them. Just like Uncle Tom..."

"Have you read gone with the wind? There are those loyal black servants in euge. They write them as part of the family, but they can cruelly abuse their 'family' when they turn around!"

"I bet... Father jastifa and mother Selsey will come to no good end in the end!"

Chen ang smiled: "that's not necessarily... Sometimes, the identity of the abuser and the victim can be transformed."

"It depends on which side is more evil!"

The diary tells a story in the back - a story that may be related to the strangeness of the big house. While taking care of Ben, Caroline gradually felt the strangeness of the old house. It seems that some strange things often happen here, and the two old people living here are also very strange.

Ben often rejected his wife's approach, and even tried to turn over the window to escape on a rainy night. As a result, he fell into the yard. He was a stroke patient! Caroline found him writing in mud on the sheet - help! So Caroline has a terrible guess that Mrs. violet may have poisoned Ben and caused him to have a stroke.

Mrs. violet had an ambiguous relationship with lawyer Luke. She had a stroke in the attic, but violet claimed that there was a door in the attic that they had never opened - another attic!

Finally, Caroline retelled a story Mrs. violet told him:

"This mansion was first built by a rich banker. He had two daughters, Martin and grace, and was taken care of by a black couple. Needless to ask, it was naturally jastifa's father and Selsey's mother. Their children trusted their 'jastifa's father and Selsey's mother' very much, but one day, after the adults went out to dinner, they didn't come back See these two children. "

"So they began to look around, and finally found two children doing witchcraft ceremonies and their black servants in the attic. Although the two children claimed that they wanted to learn witchcraft and let the black servants teach them, the adults didn't give the two black servants a chance to speak."

"They angrily dragged two blacks downstairs, and a group of white elites hung them on a tree and burned them! But later, perhaps because of retribution, the banker suddenly killed his wife, then committed suicide and left his property to his two children."

This may be the origin of all strange phenomena!

Nick sneered, "looks like you lost! I knew those 3K parties couldn't do anything good!"

"That's not necessarily..." Chen ang said: "Mrs. violet in this diary is full of suspicions everywhere. How credible is the story she tells?"

Nick said calmly, "we'll find out the truth. What's our bet?"

"There seems to be nothing suspicious about Caroline in the diary, but the former owners of the house, violet and Ben devrioux, are like a woman who murdered her husband and poor, tortured victims. Ben even asked Caroline for help after the stroke, but the help writing on the bed sheet was mysterious after Caroline found Luke's lawyer to complain Disappeared! "Nick analyzed," maybe Caroline has mental illness, and everything is her delusion. "

"Then lawyer Luke discovered this, controlled her, murdered two old people and took their property?"

After the diary, Caroline gradually believed in witchcraft. She began to write some mysterious rumors about the local gods, as Nick guessed - her mental state was deteriorating.

In the diary, both Caroline and Mrs. violet are normal, at least it seems so, and the Caroline they saw is a reserve murderer. Her mental state is basically close to madness. The whole person is gloomy and terrible

Finally, Caroline was in a bad state of mind. She didn't dare to write more clearly in her diary, but vaguely put forward some strange concepts. She copied many materials and rituals with a pen - including sulfur, lime, blood and hair. It seemed that she was preparing a strange witchcraft ceremony.

She also mentioned a local witchcraft Legend - there is a kind of witchcraft that can get immortal life. As long as you sacrifice a living person, you can get all the rest of his life.

Seeing this, Nick's heart trembled. He seemed to connect all this. The sharp smell of the king of agents made him connect all the clues in an instant.
