Chapter 87 Internal Carving and Exorcism Bullets (35)
Xu Yi carefully observed the photo. The photo was obviously taken in Mia's room. The girl in white robe was sitting against the wall, her head lowered.
The cameras of this era had limited pixels and were not very clear, but Xu Yi could still recognize it at a glance. The girl in the photo was the evil spirit he had encountered before.
There was a dagger stuck in the girl's chest. Both the autopsy report and the police who witnessed it showed that the other party committed suicide.
And the girl is only 18 years old.
What is the reason that would make an 18-year-old young girl willingly commit suicide?
The most bizarre thing is that according to the police investigation, before the murder, the girl named Annabell had no contact with Mia's family and was simply an ordinary person.
There was no grudge or interest entanglement. The two people ran into a stranger's house inexplicably. One was shot dead by the police and the other committed suicide.
No matter which angle you look at this matter, there is something strange about it.
In the picture, a girl named Annabell is holding the weird doll. I don’t know if it is a coincidence or for other reasons, but the name of the doll is also called Annabell.
Xu Yi had already turned to the next page, but he suddenly turned back and came closer to the photo, his eyes widening.
The pixels of the photo were really poor, but fortunately the Eye of Obscure gave him powerful vision, allowing him to see more subtle things.
In the photo, the blood from the girl's chest is dripping on the doll, but strangely, the doll is very clean with no blood at all.
This can only mean one thing. The girl's blood was absorbed by the doll. Xu Yi even guessed that the girl's soul was swallowed by the doll along with the blood, and then turned into an evil spirit.
"Why do I smell a conspiracy?" Xu Yi whispered.
What concerned him most about the photo was not this, but the wall behind the girl. To be precise, it was a mark on the wall.
The mark was written in blood, with no meaning at all, as if it had been accidentally smeared on by hand.
"It's really strange. Why does this mark appear on such a clean white wall?"
Xu Yi couldn't find the answer for the time being, so he could only continue to look down.
In the case file, he saw even more explosive news. Before entering Mia's house, the girl went to the neighbor's house next door.
No, it can't be said to be the neighbor's house next door. To be more precise, it should be "Annabelle went back to her own home."
The Higgins couple lived next door. More than ten years ago, they adopted an orphan from the orphanage, the girl Annabelle who committed suicide.
About three years ago, Annabell suddenly disappeared.
The first thing Annabell did when she came back was to brutally murder her adoptive parents.
According to the investigation, Higgins treated Annabell very well and treated her as his own. After Annabell disappeared, they were sad for a long time and tried to find Annabell everywhere.
"What a human tragedy!" Xu Yi mourned for the Higgins couple.
The smell of conspiracy is getting stronger and stronger. First, he kills his adoptive parents, and then runs non-stop to the house next door to commit suicide. Even a lunatic would not be able to do such a thing.
"If you want to find out more about this matter, the breakthrough point should be with this girl named Annabelle. As long as you find out where she went during the three years she disappeared, everything will be easily solved." The exorcist's
job It’s an exorcism, but it also occasionally has a guest role as a detective.
Not to satisfy curiosity, but because knowing the origin will make the exorcism work much easier.
Knowing the origin of evil spirits will help to find the host; knowing the origin of demons will be even more useful. The real names of many demons are their weaknesses.
In this unfamiliar place, it may not be an easy task for him to investigate on his own.
Xu Yi's eyes fell on Father Bonn.
Father Bonn noticed Xu Yi's gaze and nodded with a smile. He had no idea that he had been targeted by someone and was about to start a life of "coolie".
………… Joya Gemstone Processing Workshop.
"Mr. Xu Yi, if you engage in work in this field, you will definitely have a chance to become a master." The old man with a gray beard praised.
"Master Mark is serious, I'm just a fan!" Xu Yi replied tactfully.
He was holding a carving knife in his hand, and in front of him was a beryl the size of an egg. Most of the beryl had been carved, and the carving was an eternal flower, which actually had seven to eight points of charm.
Mia and his wife were sitting not far away, chatting quietly and drinking scented tea comfortably.
The miserable Father Bonn is currently looking for connections and investigating Annabell's affairs under the bright sun.
Father Bonn refused at first, but after Xu Yi said something, the other party could only agree depressedly.
"Father Bonn, I need to protect Mia. You don't want Ms. Mia, a devout believer, to follow us around, right?" These were Xu Yi's exact words.
Mia's husband is engaged in the gem processing industry. After Xu Yi found out, he made a request to visit, and the other party readily agreed.
After learning that Xu Yi was interested in carving, Mia's husband specially invited the "master craftsman" in the workshop, Mr. Mark, who has won multiple world awards.
[Sculptor +5, current progress is 30/100. 】
Xu Yi learned carving at an astonishing speed, but this is not incomprehensible.
He already had an entry as a painter, and the basis of sculpture was copying, so this was not a problem for him at all. Coupled with his previous experience in carving undead incantations, he is very familiar with the carving knife and has a very steady hand.
If you can't learn quickly like this, you can just find a piece of tofu and hit it to death.
"Master Mark, I want to ask you something." Xu Yi suddenly changed his voice.
He took out a revolver cartridge from his pocket. The base of the cartridge had been removed and the powder inside had been emptied.
He handed the cartridge case to Mark, "I want to engrave something inside the cartridge case. I wonder if Master Mark can do it?"
On the train, Xu Yi had this idea. He would engrave the necromantic incantation on the bullet to make a low-end match. version of the exorcism bullet.
The initial idea was to engrave necromantic incantations on the surface of the bullet. Unfortunately, this approach had major drawbacks. The bullet would have more lines on its surface, which would affect its stability and accuracy.
It may be nothing at ordinary times, but once a critical moment comes and the bullet is inaccurate, it can be fatal.
But he couldn't bear to give up.
The power is really increased too much. Compared with ordinary bullets, the power of bullets engraved with the undead mantra has been doubled!
The power of a low-quality imitation exorcism bullet has increased so much. What if it is a genuine bullet? Xu Yi suddenly remembered the demon-breaking flame bomb.
If the demon-breaking flame bullet was copied and then engraved with the undead incantation, how powerful would it be?
In order to solve the problem of affected accuracy, Xu Yi came up with a new method, which was to engrave the undead curse into the inside of the bullet.
"You can use the internal carving method. I happen to have research in this area." Mark is indeed a famous master and quickly gave advice.
Master Mark took out a set of strange carving tools. Each carving knife was shaped like a "7", slender and sharp.
Xu Yi's eyes lit up and he instantly understood the principle of this set of tools.
Throughout the afternoon, Xu Yi was immersed in the world of sculpture, and the progress of the sculptor's entry was soaring.
[Sculptor +2, current progress 48/100]
Before he knew it, the sculptor entry was almost halfway through. The speed of progress was simply terrifying, and Martin was shocked to the point of numbness.
Xu Yi was focused on nothing but the carving knife and bullet casings in his hands. He didn't withdraw from the state of concentration until Mia came over.
"Mr. Xu Yi, Father Bonn called and said there was an important discovery."
