13 Mink Street

Chapter 23: My mistake, it's up to me

　　 "I'm going back now."

　　 Karen tried his best to keep his voice smooth, and with the appearance of Diss, his confidence was indeed stronger than before.

　　 Although Diss has been holding his own life,

　　 But Xiao Ming was held by someone, which is better than being outside with a dandelion floating in the wind.

　　 However, in the final analysis, he is still a "pretended" magic stick, and the fake one is fake after all, so after saying this, he immediately added another sentence:

　　 "What else do you want to say?"

　　 Alfred took out a business card and handed it up respectfully.

　　 Karen reached out and took this business card. The position on it was "Roja Radio Host", plus a phone number.

　　 "I look forward to hearing your call again."

　　 Alfred took two steps back, stepped aside, and continued:

　　"You can choose to make this call, of course, you can also come directly to the door of this room;

　　Your call, to me, is like this sunrise and sunset, a rule that cannot be violated. "

　　 Karen took the business card back in his hand and let out a sigh of relief.

　　 No request is the best, because he really doesn’t know what he can give;

　　 More than 20,000 yuan in private money?

　　 Plus a Miffitt gold watch?

　　Or, what day after your death, the 50% discount coupon from the Funeral Club of Immeles?

　　 Fortunately, I'm so sensible, I didn't ask for anything.

　　 But then,

　　 Ms. Molly knelt directly in front of Karen.

　　 She was kneeling, but she raised her head;

　　 If someone kneels down in front of someone, it will inevitably give birth to a sense of control in my heart that belongs to the superior, but this feeling does not hold true for Ms. Molly. When she kneels down, it seems that she is staring at you.

　　 "Please forgive my irrationality, but hope that the great you will give me a purified body."

　　 Body?

　　 Corpse?

　　 There is no shortage of corpses in the house. There are still three lying in the basement.

　　 I can find a way to steal;

　　 But what does the purified body mean?

　　 This particular reference is definitely not ordinary.

　　 Otherwise, the body of Jeff and the body of Mrs. Seuss were all full-tailed, but Ms. Molly did not use it.

　　 But if you ask at this moment: "So, what is the purified body?"

　　 It is very likely that the "unpredictable" that I pretended to be previously distorted directly, like a physics professor, pointing to a capital "E" and asking what it means.

　　 However, what I need to do most now is to leave here, so Karen gave his own answer:

　　 "Wait."

　　 "Thank you for the great, I will always crawl in front of you and offer you all my loyalty."

　　 Karen did not respond, but nodded slightly, first slowly put Mrs. Seus’s relic into the hiking bag, then lifted the hiking bag, stepped forward, and walked towards the door.

When 　　 walked out of the master bedroom, Karen noticed that the two had not followed.

Down the stairs,

　　 floor by floor,

　　 Out of leisure, out of indifference, out of randomness;

　　Perhaps he took it too seriously,

　　 Karen actually walked out of Shunkui,

　　 I forgot whether to move the left leg or the right leg first;

　　 Inadvertently, he stepped down two stairs with one foot, and he was also holding a hiking bag, which caused his body to lose his center of gravity, so he could only walk forward quickly.

　　 "Dodo Do..."

finally,

　　 propped the railing with his right hand,

　　 body shape turned,

　　 "Boom!"

　　 Jump to the ground.

　　 In order to hide the embarrassment,

　　 Karen also let out a big laugh:

"Ha ha."

　　 try to hide his gaffe as a kind of childlike innocence.

　　 open the entrance door,

　　 Karen went out.

　　 When he passed the yard, he didn't look back to the window sill upstairs, but directly opened the yard door, forward, forward, forward, and finally, stood in front of Diss.

open mouth,

　　 exhaled heavily,

　　 took another sharp breath,

　　 This strong sense of security makes his brain a little drunk.

　　 Diss looked at Karen, did not speak, but walked a few steps forward and came to the courtyard gate.

　　 "Mr. Alfred."

　　 At the window position on the second floor, Alfred smiled slightly and responded:

　　 "Your Lord Inquisitor."

　　 "Please remember the agreement between us."

　　 Alfred replied:

　　 "I never broke the agreement between us, and Ms. Molly did not leave this room. Although another person died today, I assure you that she died of guilt as well."

　　 Diss turned around and looked at Karen.

　　 Karen pointed to Mrs. Seuss’ red "Kayman" sedan, and said, "I can explain it."

　　 Seeing that Diss had no objection, Karen opened the door, put the hiking bag in, and then sat in by himself.

　　 Diss took the passenger seat, while Pu'er jumped in from the car window and landed in the back seat.

　　 Karen started the car.

　　 On the balcony on the second floor, watching the car disappearing at the end of the street, Alfred let out a light cough, and glanced down at the three cigarette butts on the ground:

　　 "I still don't understand why humans want to invent this chronic poison to kill themselves."

　　 Ms. Molly replied: "From the moment human beings are born, it is equivalent to embarking on the road to death."

　　 "Ms. Molly, your answer is getting more and more philosophical. Maybe I can invite you to be a special guest on my show in the future. Well, the audience and friends can't see you anyway."

　　 Ms. Molly looked at Alfred and asked:

　　 "Your succubus eye, don't you plan to put it away?"

　　 "Oh? Ah, haha."

　　 Alfred's blood-colored eyes began to converge, returning to ordinary people's pupils, but they had a slightly more grayish feeling than normal people.

"Alfred, I really don’t understand you. It’s obviously that you discovered that great existence first, and today you took the lead in making the most humble gesture, but why, you have been open to that great existence. Your succubus eye?"

　　 Succubus’s eyes have the ability of insight, which can break away the falsehood, and at the same time, it can also capture the hearts of people.

　　 Therefore, the succubus is in the different magic sequence, no, in the entire social sequence, it belongs to the higher IQ group, because they are not easy to be deceived.

　　 Many times, if you can't be deceived, you are already smart.

　　 Karen had a similar feeling when facing Alfred earlier. In front of him, he must not lie.

　　 Because of this, no matter how humble Alfred was in the previous answer, Karen always responded with "big truth".

　　 "I just want to show respect, so that the great being can see who I am. This is a symbol of loyalty."

"I do not believe."

　　 Alfred shrugged.

road:

　　 "Actually, the more you believe in something, it also means that you will be more suspicious of it. This is why some great scientists will embrace theology in their later years."

　　 "Are you...still doubting him? I thought you would have been succumbed to that great being a long time ago."

　　 "Do you know what my biggest suspicion is?" Alfred laughed at himself, "That is he has no doubt."

　　 "I know, you said to me, chants, words."

　　 "Not only that, do you remember that I left Roja to go to Belwyn a month ago?"

"remember."

　　 "Many churches have sent people, and even the army of the Ruilan government has been dispatched to block off that area. Do you know what happened there?"

"what's up?"

　　 "Someone held a surrender ceremony on the outskirts of Belwyn."

　　 "God surrender ceremony?" Ms. Molly's face was very calm, "what am I."

　　 God descending ceremony, many church sacrifices will use it, praying that the gods they serve will show the glory and will to guide the believers who are lost.

　　 "Oh?" Alfred lowered his voice, "But the **** descending ceremony, summoned, is a Cthulhu, and it is an unknown Cthulhu!"

　　 Cthulhu does not specifically refer to a single existence, he is a collective term.

　　 Churches with a huge orthodox position and continuous heritage, their gods are regarded as true gods;

　　 Their gods have nothing to do with the "evil gods", because all those who dare to call their gods as evil gods will be exterminated by them.

In addition to the large orthodox churches, there are also many small churches. Their number of believers is not as large as that of the large churches and their influence is not so great. However, the gods they serve can be respected on the basis of "survival". And recognized.

In addition, there are branches of "gods", that is, the system of gods that are branched out of the orthodox church. These gods may be disciples of true gods or founders who have served large churches and gradually evolved into new branches. , In the narrative structure, it can be integrated.

　　Even, some evil gods, such as extreme doctrines, fierce believers, who have suffered siege and even extinction, their beliefs, and the gods they serve cannot be regarded as evil gods.

　　 Cthulhu... There is no faith, and it exists without relying on faith. His definition, to explain it simply and crudely, is probably a single existence. Wandering between the heavens and the earth, or being sealed in a corner of myths and legends, they can be "received" by the method of "descendance".

　　 This is an act of disrupting order,

　　Because this behavior is likely to cause catastrophe, God knows what will be summoned in the end.

　　 For many years, such catastrophes, although there have been, have not happened many times, and there are very few records in ancient books.

　　The reason is the specification limit.

　　The specifications of the God descending ceremony need to be prepared.

The level of 　　 specifications directly determines what kind of existence the "god" you invite down is.

　　 This does not only refer to material preparations. In fact, material preparations are simple. Even most of the materials can be bought directly with money, even "sacred objects";

The level of 　　 specifications is linked to the ability of the ceremony host.

　　The stronger the ability of the ceremonial host, the higher the specifications of the **** descending ceremony.

　　 People who can hold high-level ceremonies basically only exist in the Orthodox Church, because only the Orthodox Church can achieve this development.

　　 The priests of the small church held the same ceremony of surrendering the gods. It was already the limit to be able to summon a piece of brilliance, and I even had to be grateful for it.

　　It is normal for the priests of large churches to summon miracles, and even the higher priests or grand presiding officers, the summoning of the "artifacts" are all written in ancient books.

Ordinary "Cthulhu" summoning rituals, the lowest end, you can go to "Play Pen Fairy" to summon the weak and weak monsters nearby. Of course, even the weakest monster, even if it has no ability to kill, it is enough to treat ordinary people. Frightened to death.

　　 Further up, with the continuous improvement of specifications, the strength and type of the alien monsters summoned will also increase.

but,

　　 These are all tolerable.

　　 In this world, it is OK to have an extra power, or a strange monster with a powerful strength. It is not a big deal. The Orthodox churches have a profound background, and they can be annihilated with a wave of hands.

　　 Because of this, the strange monsters either live in seclusion in the corners of the inaccessible, or they are also very cautious in human society and dare not make too much trouble.

　　 is often solved, but it is the kind of low-end kind of mindless goods similar to the possessed Mrs. Seuss.

　　 and really make the big church intolerable,

　　 is the Cthulhu Summoning Ceremony with higher specifications.

　　Because the large church monopolizes this high-level ceremony, the call of the "evil god" in the ancient records can be called, without exception, it is all done by the high-level personnel of these orthodox large churches.

　　 This type of person is also called a "rebel". It is not just the church in which they are rebelling, but also an attempt to subvert the entire framework of order.

　　They are capable of receiving miracles in the daytime through the rituals of descent from the gods;

So,

　　 At night, you can have the same ability, summoning and attracting powerful monsters beyond the tolerable range... also known as "Cthulhu".

　　 Every time the "Cthulhu" comes, it is a catastrophe, which will cause extremely terrible turmoil, and even lead to the demise of a large orthodox church;

　　Because the evil **** that was summoned may have been fighting against a certain true **** in the last epoch or in myths and legends, or was suppressed and sealed by that true god.

　　 Once he returned, even if his strength was weakened a lot, but the hatred for the sects left by the previous enemy is beyond words.

Even more bizarre is that no matter how strong the orthodox churches have been throughout the entire epoch, at most they have summoned "artifacts" or "phantoms of God", but no church has the ability to call the "True God" again. .

　　 Under the premise that the true **** cannot come, if you want to suppress the evil **** again, you must pay a terrible price.

　　 Ms. Molly's face finally showed a look of shock: "Cthulhu!"

　　 immediately,

　　 Ms. Molly rolled her eyes and asked:

　　 "Did you succeed?"

　　 Alfred seemed to be satisfied with Ms. Molly's emotional change, and said: "If it didn't succeed, why did it attract so much attention? By the same token, the specifications of this **** descending ceremony must also be extremely high.

　　 Otherwise, even if one more you is summoned, or one more me is summoned, then...what's the point? "

　　 "No, Alfred, I mean, you mean..."

　　 Alfred nodded.

road:

　　 "A powerful judge, hehe.

　　 After that matchup, do you know what I was afraid of last?

　　 But after thinking about it carefully, I discovered that the curse he used was only taught and used at the judge level of the Church of Order.

　　 A member of the Order of God, who was obviously stronger than the judges, deliberately used the curse of the judge level to fight with me.

　　 can only explain,

he,

　　 is hiding strength. "

　　 "So, actually, you shouldn't be able to beat him?"

　　 "Ms. Molly, this is not the point!"

　　 "Ok, sorry."

　　 "Furthermore, I didn't use my full strength, and I was afraid that I would be killed in all directions by the Order of God."

　　 "Okay, keep talking."

　　 "Today, tonight, I understand."

　　 "Is it him?" Ms. Molly asked, "Grandpa in the sense of the blood of a great existence? But the ceremony of God's surrender took place in Belwyn..."

　　Speaking of which, Ms. Molly shut up;

　　Because of how stupid it is to hold this taboo ceremony in the city where you live? It must be changed.

　　 "So, Ms. Molly, what I suspect is not his greatness, he must be a great being, there is no doubt about it!

　　 I doubt and fear, under the appearance of a true god, what if it is the essence of an evil god?

　　 Cthulhu,

　　 That is even our two strange demons, we are extremely afraid of the existence of fear. "

　　 Alfred glanced at the area previously annexed by Mrs. Seuss.

　　 murmured:

　　 "The Light of Order.

　　 Maybe,

　　He is a terrifying existence that has been suppressed by the **** of order. "

　　 Ms. Molly said with some doubts: "Then my...physical body?"

　　 Alfred pressed the brim down and reminded:

　　 "Relax, whether it is the true **** or the evil god, in front of him, we only need to play our own role, not noisy, no interruption, or prying, and when he needs it, we will be there on call and give everything."

　　 "Alfred, can you describe this role more clearly, I'm afraid I won't perform well?"

　　 "Okay, you heard clearly."

　　 Alfred opened his arms,

road:

　　 "Wow! Wow! Wow!"

　　...

　　 "It's like that."

　　 Karen unreservedly told Diss what happened tonight while driving.

　　 don’t know why,

　　 When driving and talking, every time I see Pu'er sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror;

　　 Karen will have an impetuous mood in his heart, but he thinks he is definitely not the kind of pervert who will abuse cats.

　　 "Grandpa, did you think those two were stupid? I was really scared to death at the time. Fortunately, I fudged them and saved my life at the same time."

　　 Diss, who was sitting in the passenger seat, did not speak.

　　 Pu'er sitting in the back seat, his personified smile became clearer.

finally,

　　 The car stopped,

　　 stopped at the door of the Seuss Cremation Club.

　　Since the death of the old Darcy, the Seuss Cremation Club has been closed, and even if it hadn't closed so late, it would have been closed long ago.

　　 "What are you doing here?" Diss finally said.

　　 Karen explained: "Sergeant Duke should be able to find clues soon, and found that Siushus is the real murderer."

　　Unless Sheriff Duke is a stupid ass, no, even if the stupid **** is Sheriff Duke, he will solve the case.

　　 "So, I plan to send Mrs. Seuss' clothes and car back to the crematorium, creating the illusion that Mrs. Seuss has escaped after knowing that the incident has been exposed. After all, we can't find Mrs. Seuss again."

　　 She is gone.

　　 Diss heard the words and nodded.

　　 Karen got out of the car holding Mrs. Seuss's clothes, which also belonged to Mrs. Seuss.

　　 In the relic, there is a bunch of keys. Karen unlocked the door and walked in with the hiking bag. Diss followed Karen.

　　 Pu'er took an elegant catwalk, followed by the moonlight stretched its shadow.

　　 Karen came to the office, which was separated from the incinerator by a wall.

　　 In the cremation club in the early morning, there is a depressing silence.

　　 Karen placed Mrs. Seuss' clothes on the ground and on the table, then opened the mountaineering bag and laid out the utensils inside. Well, it's really rich.

　　 Although Mrs. Seuss has a very average level of art, she is well prepared with art tools, just like she always likes to prepare new stationery before studying hard.

　　 Karen pulled a chair over and sat down;

"Grandpa, I think the police should be able to find out who the murderer is tonight. They will definitely send police to the cremation club as soon as possible. Of course, if they don't come, Grandpa can call the police when they return. , Said your grandson lost contact after sending Mrs. Seuss home tonight.

　　 In addition, please ask Grandpa to tie me to this chair and make the illusion that I am the next victim.

　　 As for Mrs. Hughes, it can be said that she noticed the movement when the police came here and ran away.

　　 Mainly tonight, Aunt Mary, Aunt Mary, and Mrs. Hughes cannot hide from the police, so I have to do this as a finishing touch. "

　　 Diss nodded,

　　 walked around behind Karen, silently took out a dagger from a pile of utensils in his hiking bag, and played with it.

　　 Karen sitting in a chair is still waiting for grandpa to tie him up, not knowing everything behind him;

　　 only saw the black cat Pu'er squatting in front of him, and the smile on his face made him feel more and more uncomfortable;

　　 "Grandpa, there is another way, that is, you can use some utensils to knock me unconscious, so that when the police come, the effect will be better, and I can be better fooled.

　　 Or find out if there are any psychotropic drugs like sleeping pills here, mainly so that I can explain to the police a lot easier afterwards. "

　　 "Don't have to be so troublesome."

　　Dis walked up to Karen.

　　 Karen smiled,

road:

　　 "Of course, everything depends on grandpa. You choose what you choose. I believe grandpa..."

　　 "Puff!"

　　 A severe pain came,

　　 Karen lowered her head in disbelief,

　　 he saw,

　　 on his chest,

　　 was inserted with a dagger.
