Chapter 070: Tracking

Rooney was sitting at his desk, his eyes glazed over and fiddling with something, because of the angle, Roger couldn't see what Rooney was doing, but the expression on his face was weird.

There is a little bit of ...... in the woodenness Obsessed.

Knock knock!

Roger knocked on the door.

The crisp voice seemed a little harsh in the empty hospital, but Rooney didn't seem to hear it at all, bowing his head, immersed in his own world.

"What's going on?"

Henrik stopped and asked in a low voice.

Roger pointed casually, the burning heat in his chest became more obvious, based on previous experience, Rooney must be holding some kind of mysterious object in his hand.

Boom!

Henrik's body slammed into the door, and the frightened Rooney looked up, and Roger saw the object he was fiddling with.

A doll woven from straw with eyes adorned with two white buttons on its rough face.

I don't know why, seeing this ordinary doll, Roger couldn't help but feel furious in his heart.

"It's a voodoo doll!"

Henrik stepped forward and snatched the straw doll from Rooney's hand, and he checked it up and down several times, and there was a hint of sharpness in his eyes.

"And say it's okay?!"

Henrik suppressed his anger, "Where did this thing come from?!" ”

"What's that? Oh...... Do you mean this doll? Rooney was a little stunned, and he shook his somewhat drowsy head.

"It's a courier."

He flipped through the label on the box, "It's strange, it's supposed to be information and video, how did it become a straw doll?" ”

"What is this?"

Roger asked in a whisper, he had heard of voodoo dolls, and it seemed to be used for curses or something.

"Go wash your face and get some rest." Henrik said to Rooney, who nodded sheepishly and left the room.

"Let's go!"

Henrik took the doll and walked briskly with Roger to the elevator.

"This is a kind of voodoo, and it is a kind of core witchcraft, depending on the material that makes up the doll, straw, puppets, pottery, bones, etc., the doll has different effects."

"Like the one in front of you."

Henrik reached out and pulled a strand of hair from the straw on the doll's head, "bury the recipient's hair in the doll's head beforehand, and then activate it with mysterious power through a ritual." ”

"When the recipient gets this doll, they will be involuntarily attracted to it, and their spirit will be disturbed, and they will do something terrible without being aware of it."

"For example...... Kill someone! ”

"Gilmour!"

Roger said in a deep voice.

Henrik nodded, "It seems that that Hannum should know that he has been exposed, so he will do it immediately." ”

"Nope! Wrong! ”

Henrik frowned, as if thinking of something.

"The ritual requires a lot of preparation, and it also requires a specific casting time, so it can't be so fast."

"This guy has obviously been preparing for a long time, and it was only because of our appearance that this plan was advanced!"

"What a thoughtful, cunning and sinister fellow"

"In the tragedy of the manor, he left a scapegoat so that he could successfully get out of it, and at the same time attracted the attention of the police and public opinion."

"After getting rid of suspicion, he didn't immediately start killing and strengthening the evil spirit, but waited patiently, waiting for things to gradually subside, and then ending according to the plan."

Henrik analyzed.

Roger suddenly thought of a question, "You just said that this evil spirit in Hanam's possession can leave the birthplace. ”

"Could it be that at the beginning, when the ritual was just completed, this newborn evil spirit did not have such abilities, only after the last time, after he led people to the manor."

"Through killing, this evil spirit has grown stronger, and then has the ability to break away from the manor!"

Listening to Roger's words, Henrik was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed greatly.

"Not good!"

"This guy is going to run!"

The elevator doors opened, and Henrik sped towards the car.

"Your analysis makes a lot of sense, if this evil spirit could have left the manor from the beginning, then there is no need for Hannum to stay here for so long, and put the location of the first killing in the manor!"

"He has already cleared the suspense, and gradually downplayed the tragedy of the manor, and then created the killing, which will only arouse suspicion."

"That means he has a reason to do this, at that time the evil spirit has not been able to leave the manor, he must take people there, nourish the evil spirit with the fear of the people, and then strengthen it by killing!"

"Now that his evil spirit can get out of the manor, he's back to putting the finishing touches on Gilmour." ”

"All the clues will be completely broken."

"Even if the guild sends someone to investigate, it won't find any results!"

"This guy!!"

Henrik let out a low roar.

From the very beginning of the investigation, he was led by the nose, and it is only now that he has sorted out the clues and woken up.

"What should we do now?"

After figuring out the cause and effect, Roger also knew that if he didn't find Hannum as soon as possible and let him leave Swamp Town, the world would really be impossible to find.

"The original package was dropped, this guy must have done it, he shouldn't have gone far, and there may still be time."

It was already completely dark outside, and Henrik took a deep breath, he quickly calmed down and parked the car in a wasteland not far away.

"Do you know how to drive?" Henrik asked.

Roger hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Yes, it's just not a certificate." ”

Roger was also an old driver in his previous life.

"You'll open it in a moment!"

"I need to have a simple ceremony."

Henrik said in a deep voice.

"It's really dangerous, if we don't come here tonight, wait until tomorrow morning, Gilmour will be killed by Rooney, and all clues will be completely broken."

"We don't know where Hannum is hiding right now, but luckily we've found this!"

Henrik clenched the voodoo doll in his hand.

"Thanks to you, Roger!"

Henrik pulled a backpack out of the trunk, and with quick movements, he quickly cleared a clearing, then set up the props and drew the voodoo doll on the placed circle.

This was Roger's first time observing a truly mystical ritual up close.

Henrik poured himself an unknown bottle of liquid, and after 10 seconds, he was refreshed and his voice had a strange rhythm in his voice.

As the sound approached its high-pitched apex, Henrik set fire to the surrounding items, then drew a dagger, slitting his palm, and sprinkled blood on the voodoo doll in the circle.

Whew!

A puff of white smoke rose as if the doll was howling in pain, and then the voodoo doll spontaneously combusted without fire, turning into a wisp of black smoke and burrowing into Henrik's eyebrows.

The figure shook slightly.

"I'll show you the way."

"I know where that guy is hiding!"

Henrik said in a deep voice.
