Chapter 72 The Evil Spirit Retreats

Looking at the muzzle of the black hole pointing at his forehead, James seemed stunned, just sitting on the ground, his mouth open blankly. Ella looked at Xie Lun with a solemn expression, and smiled faintly: “Okay, shoot, anyway, it’s definitely not me who died in the end.”

Xie Lun raised his eyebrows and was about to pull the trigger.

“Hold on…” Ella sighed and said helplessly, “You are so boring, you can’t make a joke. Don’t forget, you are a police detective, why are you so cold-blooded.”

Xie Lun sneered: “A guy who made a big life into a puppet, doesn’t seem to be qualified to say that others are cold-blooded, right?”

“That’s art, you mortals don’t understand.”

Ella seemed to shook her head resentfully.

“Stop talking nonsense,” Xie Lun said coldly, “or let us go, or I will take James to death, you choose one.”

Ella pursed her lips: “Don’t be so anxious, Mr. Detective. Didn’t you just say it, this matter can still be discussed. Then, you can just say what you want, as long as I can do it. I promise to satisfy you.”

“real?”

“real!”

“Well,” Xie Lun said solemnly, “I want to know everything about Mary Shaw, including the reason you lured James back.”

Ella’s face changed in an instant, and she looked at Xie Lun coldly: “You didn’t plan to give James to me at all, did you?”

Xie Lun shrugged: “I am a police detective. It is my task to pursue the truth. Don’t worry, as long as you tell me everything, I promise to leave James to you.”

“No, you are lying!”

Ella suddenly changed from a beautiful blonde woman to a gruesome old lady with white hair. Accompanied by a harsh scream, her long tongue shot out and pierced Sharon’s throat.

“James, it’s now!”

Sharon shot the transformed Ella frantically, and James, who had been pretending to be a fool, turned around and slapped the wooden door severely after hearing Sharon’s call.

Only then did Ella see that James did not know when to draw a strange symbol with blood on the wooden door behind him.

“Τακακ?πνε?ματαδιασκορπ?ζονται. (The evil spirit retreats)!”

James almost yelled out this Greek word, and the rune under his palm immediately emitted a scarlet light, and then an invisible wave burst out suddenly.

“Do not……”

Ella seemed to be hit head-on by an invisible truck and flew back into the flames. At the same time, the wooden door that had been closed finally opened.

“run!”

Without a word between Xie Lun and James, Sa Yazi rushed out. But as soon as they rushed out of the narrow corridor, that weird scream faintly came from behind them.

“Quickly…that monster is going to catch up!”

Two people one after another, ran out of the corridor quickly and just stepped on the sky bridge. Suddenly the overpass shook violently for no reason, and the two finally grabbed the iron chains on both sides, and they didn’t fall off the overpass.

But then, a tongue shot out from the darkness across the sky bridge, and Roar whistled and rolled towards James.

At this critical moment of the electric flint, Xie Lun grabbed James, turned over and jumped out of the overpass, dragging the curtain and quickly slid down from above.

With a crisp sound, the wood that has been eroded by moisture all the year round broke without waiting for the impact force this time.

With a “plop”, Xie Lun and James fell heavily into the lake below the theater.

“Swim, don’t look back, swim!”

Xie Lun pushed James a hand, then pulled the grenade away, and threw it through the hole in the floor with his backhand.

“Boom!”

The Shockwave produced by the explosion forced Xie Lun and James to dive underwater. When they really couldn’t hold their breath, the two men emerged. At this time, they had already swimed out of the foundation of the theater, and by the blazing fire of the theater, the two struggled to swim towards the lake.

The lake was icy and bitter, and Xie Lun could bear it with his physique surpassing ordinary people and amazing endurance. But James quickly lost it. In the end, Xie Lun dragged him and finally swam to the shore and climbed up to the shore with great difficulty.

After lying on the ground to rest for a while, Xie Lun stood up again. He must find a way to find a warm place, or raise a bonfire, otherwise James will be in trouble if he has hypothermia.

As Xie Lun dragged James and walked inward, a person suddenly appeared out of the tall grass in front of him. The sawn shotgun pointed at Xie Lun’s forehead, and a familiar voice sounded: “Is it you?”

“John?” Xie Lun breathed a sigh of relief, “Don’t point the gun at me, come and help. I can warn you, but there is an evil spirit chasing us behind, and it will be troublesome if we don’t run quickly.”

John looked at James, who was trembling slightly on the ground, and sighed helplessly. Together with Xie Lun, he erected James and walked inland quickly.

Passing through the tall grass, a small road appeared in front of him, and a yellow car stopped on the small road.

After the three of them got in the car, John didn’t speak, and quickly started the car, backed up from the side road to the road, and then swiftly moved forward along the road.

“Do you have any clothes?” Xie Lun touched James’ forehead and said in a deep voice, “You have to find a warm place and change his clothes, otherwise it will be troublesome to go on like this.”

John sighed, “I know, or where do you think I am driving?”

Soon building after building appeared on both sides of the highway, Xie Lun thought at first that he had come to the town of Farravens again. But after careful identification, he soon discovered that he was wrong.

Most of the buildings in the town of Farravens are dilapidated, with spider webs everywhere. The buildings here are still very tidy. Although they are not new, they are at least cleaned and repaired.

“Thank God,” Xie Lun let out a long sigh, “Finally came out of the unlucky place in Farravens. John, you don’t know what I met in that damn small town.”

John’s face was ugly: “Don’t be too happy, Agent. I bet you, you will regret coming to this town in a while.”

Xie Lun’s face changed: “Damn it, don’t tell me, this town also has problems.”

John didn’t speak, just drove the car.

After John’s reminder, Xie Lun immediately found the suspicious point. Yes, although I don’t know the specific time, it must be late at night. But in addition to the street lights in this small town, the lights are also on in every household.



Don’t people in this small town need to sleep?

What’s more noticeable is that no one has ever passed by the window. It seems that all the residents in the town are sleeping, just sleeping with the lights on.

The car turned left at the crossroad in the middle of the town, drove to the end, and stopped in front of a magnificent building.

Xie Lun poked his head and glanced, and saw a sign standing at the gate of the building with a series of large English letters printed on it.

“Ambrose Wax Museum!”

For some reason, Xie Lun struck a spirit, and a trace of unknown feeling passed through his heart.
