Facing the aggressive Caroline, Nick suddenly refused to back down.
He said in a low voice, "Didn't you already check it? When we first moved in, I found an excuse to go to the toilet and found that even the bathroom in this house didn't have a mirror. At that time, you should have been rummaging through our luggage! None of this escaped my eyes! "
"I'm an FBI agent — Nick Fury!" Nick took out his ID and showed it to the two.
"Are you sure you want to search the belongings of a public official?" Nick said. "I don't think you have the authority!"
Chen Ang continued, "We are here to investigate the case that happened twenty years ago. I remember that it was you who called the police, Ms. Caroline. You called the police and claimed that you were being persecuted by witchcraft in this house. However, when our police arrived, you said that nothing had happened. You were too nervous at night, so you were hallucinating."
"Then, Mrs. Violet suddenly had a stroke!"
"She even left this house to you!"
Chen Ang continued, "From then on, the local police began to pay attention to you. If Violet and me had died, the police would have immediately launched an investigation. But they lived for another ten years, which was really not easy for two old people who had a stroke, so the police ignored you. "
"Until the FBI noticed this case … Caroline's aunt called the police before she passed away. She was already delirious at that time, and the doctors and her family suspected that there was something wrong with her, so they didn't pay attention to it. She said that Caroline's soul told her in a dream that someone had killed her and taken away her body. We later found out that in the letter that Caroline's aunt had sent twenty years ago, Caroline had written down some of her doubts at that time. "
"She suspected that her employer had poisoned the patient she was taking care of. She even sent a bottle of medicine and asked her aunt to help her examine it. However, her aunt neglected this matter and still kept the bottle of potion! "
"We later examined the potion and found that it was not an anticoagulant or stroke medicine, but a local herbal preparation. It contained hallucinogenic plants and some neurotoxins. Because the ingredients were very complicated, we did not know what they were used for."
"But I found a familiar ingredient — tetrodotoxin."
"In Haiti's primitive religion, this toxin was used to create a terrible witchcraft product. Witches would secretly feed a powder containing tetrodotoxin to living people and turn them into resurrected corpses to enslave them. An appropriate amount of tetrodotoxin can indeed cause a stroke. "
"The primitive religion in Haiti later spread to the United States. In Louisiana, it was reorganized by the legendary witch Lavelle and established the Voodoo Sect."
Nick nodded and said, "Therefore, we reasonably suspect that this case from twenty years ago is related to cults and witchcraft."
"So, you think that we killed Violet and me, and used the Voodoo Cult's medicine to cause them to have a stroke. Then, we joined hands and occupied their property?" Luke said. "That inheritance was also an excuse for your investigation, a lie, right?"
"No, the inheritance is real!" Chen Ang said. "But its owner clearly wants us to investigate whether the woman using her niece's name is her!"
Lawyer Nick said, "What does that mean?"
Chen Ang replied, "It means that we suspect that Mrs. Caroline might just be someone using Caroline's identity. Our reasonable speculation is that someone might have occupied her body, used her identity, enjoyed her youth, and survived. It's as if we suspect that Lawyer Luke is not Lawyer Luke. "
"We've interviewed a lot of people who knew you and found out that after that incident, you've been living in seclusion and cut ties with a lot of people who knew you. And you, Lawyer Luke, your subsequent cases have been handled very poorly — this is not something a young and promising lawyer should do."
"Ms. Caroline, your friend who is familiar with local witchcraft has long suspected this!"
"Enough!" Caroline yelled. Her hair was disheveled, and she looked a little crazy. She shouted, "I've had enough of your nonsense!"
Lawyer Luke hugged his wife and asked coldly, "I can't believe that the FBI believes in witchcraft."
"No …" Chen Ang smiled. "We don't believe in witchcraft … We just suspect that your body has been swapped. This kind of thing can be scientifically proven."
Nick flashed a set of white teeth. "After all, aliens have appeared in New York, and the Norse gods have come to Earth. These kinds of absurd things have already happened. It doesn't seem that impossible to take over a person's body, right? There are many technologies that can do this. Besides, what if you guys are aliens hiding on Earth? "
The two fake FBI agents did not hide their suspicions at all.
The two wizards were caught red-handed. They had mixed feelings about this. In the past, the witchcraft wizards of the Voodoo Cult could always rely on their anti-science and anti-common sense skills to escape the net of the law. But now, common sense itself had been subverted. The law enforcers did not believe in witchcraft, but they were convinced that aliens and extraterrestrial technology existed in this world.
Then, the two wizards were in trouble!
"I … I don't want to listen to your nonsense anymore!" Caroline trembled. "Now, get out of here!"
"This is your legal right, Ms. Caroline!" Nick smiled. "But according to the latest Alien Threat Safety Protection Act, if there is a reasonable suspicion of an extraterrestrial threat, we have the right to take level 2 surveillance measures and apply to the judge for further investigation. You can kick us out, but next time, we will visit you with a search warrant from the judge. "
Lawyer Luke's face darkened. "Don't stop them, Caroline! We didn't do anything. God is watching us. Let them investigate! They don't need a search warrant. God will prove that we are innocent. "
"That will save us some trouble!" He glared at the two of them, then turned around and returned to his room with his wife. As soon as the two of them returned to the room, Lawyer Luke made a shushing gesture and then whispered in a Haitian dialect, "There's a problem this time. They found out part of the truth, but they don't believe in witchcraft, and they're pestering us!"
'Caroline' said fiercely, "After that incident, our witchcraft has changed. Now, even if they don't believe in witchcraft, we can still curse them."
"No, Cercy!" 'Lawyer Luke' said, "If they don't believe in witchcraft, it's not a problem to complete some insignificant witchcraft and curses. But if they want to complete the 'Blessing of Lavelle', we can't do it."
"Queen Lavelle bless us!" Caroline said. "We must hurry up! They don't believe in witchcraft, so we have to prove it to them! "
"You mean …" Lawyer Luke said, "Our abilities are not strong enough. If we want to make them fear us, we have to borrow their power. However, we can't control them. They have been looking for us, wanting to take revenge on us. With the power left behind by Queen Lavelle, we can only protect ourselves."
"If we let them out, the situation will be out of control!"
"We can only race against time!" Caroline said. "Let them out and let those two hotheads feel fear and take the initiative to complete the 'Blessing of Lavelle'. Before they find us, we have to run far away! If we don't complete the 'Blessing of Lavelle', no matter where we run, we won't be able to escape their pursuit. "
Luke felt fear.
He trembled and said, "If we let them out … we'll be in danger! And who can guarantee that those two hotheads won't be killed by them? "
"That's even better!" Caroline said. "Without them in the way, we can trick a few ordinary people into coming in at any time."
Luke was silent for a long time before he raised his head and said, "What are you going to do?"
Carolyn took out a cigarette and lit it up. Sitting on a chair, she took a deep puff and slowly exhaled a ring of smoke. "Take out the mirrors in the attic. Tonight, let them stay on the second floor. Put the mirrors in their rooms, as well as the rooms around them."
"With them around, those things shouldn't have time to find us!"
Chen Ang stood at the door of their room with a mysterious smile. There was a button-sized tool on the door. This small thing that looked like a suction cup sensed the sounds inside, then amplified them, converted them into electromagnetic signals, and sent them to the earphones in Chen Ang and Nick's ears.
Nick turned on the automatic translation software, and Chen Ang could understand the Haitian dialect directly.
The two of them looked at each other, removed the suction cup, and left the room!
"Something interesting might happen tonight!" Nick said. "That's what you want me to see, right?"
"Install a few mirrors downstairs!" Chen Ang turned to look at Nick. "I think you should have a way to prevent them from finding out. All the secrets will be solved tonight! "
From that moment onwards, the things that happened in this house took a more interesting direction.
Each of the people here was more capable of courting death than the other.
This caused the originally controllable situation to develop in a direction that no one knew what the consequences would be.
Chen Ang used the silver mirror reaction in the house to manufacture a small number of mirrors. Nick was responsible for hiding it in a place that no one could find. On the other side, Caroline and her husband came to the attic and opened the door. Both sides moved at the same time. Sometimes, Nick and Caroline would walk past each other with a mirror in their arms, separated by a corridor.
Behind the door of the attic were dozens of mirrors of various sizes.
There were also various witchcraft materials, but those materials had mutated.
Flesh grew out of the masks made of gorilla skulls. Dolls with eyes and mouths sewn on them revealed a creepy smile. Human faces appeared on the leaves and flowers of the plants that grew out of the flower pots on the windowsill. The faces were even screaming. The walls and the floor were covered in charred marks as if they had been set on fire.
Under the charred walls were blood vessels and muscle tissues that squirmed as if they were alive.
