Demon Hunter and His Hut - Chapter 70

Chapter 70 Tracking

Rooney was sitting at his desk, his eyes fiddling with something blankly. Because of the angle, Roger couldn’t see what Rooney was holding, but the expression on his face was weird.

There was a little…obsessed in the dullness.

Boom boom boom!

Roger knocked on the door of the room casually.

The crisp voice seemed a bit harsh in the empty hospital, but Rooney didn’t seem to hear it at all. He lowered his head and was immersed in his own world.

“what happened?”

Henrik stopped and asked in a low voice.

Roger pointed his finger casually, and the scorching heat on his chest became more obvious. Based on past experience, Rooney must be holding some kind of mysterious object.

Bang!

Henrik’s body slammed, and the door opened in response. Rooney, who was frightened, raised his head, and Roger also saw the objects he was playing with.

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

I don’t know why, seeing this ordinary doll, Roger couldn’t help feeling hairy in his heart.

“It’s a voodoo doll!”

Henrik stepped forward and snatched the straw doll in Rooney’s hand. He checked it up and down several times, and there was a sharp look in his eyes.

“Said it doesn’t matter?!”

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

“What? Oh… are you talking about this doll?” Rooney was a little dazed, and he shook his head, a little groggy.

“It’s a courier.”

He turned over the label on the box, “It’s weird. It should be information and video. How could it become a straw doll?”

“What is this?”

Roger asked in a low voice. He had heard of the voodoo doll, and it seemed to be used for curses.

“Go wash your face, and take a good rest.” Henrik said to Rooney, who nodded dumbly before leaving the room.

“let’s go!”

Henrik took the doll and led Roger to walk quickly to the elevator.

“This is a kind of voodoo, and it is considered a core witchcraft. According to the materials that make up the doll, such as straw, puppets, pottery, bone, etc., dolls have different functions.”

“Like this one before me.”

Henrik stretched out his hand to pull out a strand of hair from the straw on the doll’s head, “Buried the subject’s hair into the doll’s head in advance, and then used a ritual to activate it with mysterious power.”

“When the subject gets the doll, he will be attracted to it involuntarily, mentally disturbed, and do some terrible things without realizing it.”

“For example… kill someone!”

“Gilmore!”

Roger said in a deep voice.

Henrik nodded, “It looks like that Hannum should know that he has been exposed, so he will do it immediately.”

“No! No!”

Henrik frowned, as if thinking of something.

“The ceremony requires a lot of preparations and a specific casting time. It can’t be so fast.”

“This guy has obviously been preparing for a long time, but only because of our presence did he advance the plan!”

“Really a thoughtful, cunning and insidious guy”

“In the tragedy of the manor, he left a scapegoat so that he could escape successfully, and at the same time attracted the attention of the police and public opinion.”

“After getting rid of the suspicion, he didn’t immediately start to kill and grow the evil spirits, but patiently waited, waiting for the matter to gradually calm down, and then finalized according to the plan.”

Henrik analyzed.

Roger suddenly thought of a question, “You just said that the evil spirit in Hannum’s grasp can already leave the birthplace.”

“Could it be that at the beginning, when the ceremony was just completed, this new born evil spirit did not possess such abilities, it was just after the last time he led people to the manor.”

“Through killing, this evil spirit grew stronger, and then had the ability to leave the manor!”

Hearing Roger’s words, Henrik was taken aback for a moment, and then his face changed drastically.

“not good!”

“This guy is going to run away!”

The elevator doors opened and Henrik ran to the car quickly.

“Your analysis is very reasonable. If this evil spirit can leave the manor from the beginning, then Hannum doesn’t need to stay here for such a long time and put the place of the first killing on the manor!”

“He had already cleared the suspense, and gradually played down the tragedy of the manor, and then the killing would only arouse people’s suspicion.”

“That is to say, he has a reason to have to do this. At that time, the evil spirits could not leave the manor. He must take people there, nourish the evil spirits with the fear of the people, and then grow them through killing!”

Start the car, “Now his evil spirit can leave the manor, and he has started the final finishing work, as long as Gilmour dies.”

“All clues will be completely cut off.”

“Even if the guild sends someone to investigate, it won’t find out any results!”

“This guy!!”

Henrik let out a low growl.

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

“What should we do now?”

After figuring out the causes and consequences, Roger also knew that if Hannum was not found as soon as possible and let him leave Marsh Town, then the world would really be impossible to find.

“The original package was dropped by someone. This guy must have done it. He probably hasn’t gone far yet. Time may not be too late.”

The sky outside was completely dark. Henrik took a deep breath. He quickly calmed down and parked the car on a wasteland not far away.

“Can you drive?” Henrik asked.

Roger hesitated and nodded, “Yes, but there is no certificate.”

Roger was an old driver in his previous life.

“You will drive in a while!”

“I need to hold a simple ceremony.”

Henrik said in a deep voice.

“It’s very dangerous. If we don’t come here tonight, Gilmour will be killed by Rooney early tomorrow morning, and all clues will be completely cut off.”

“Now we don’t know where Hannum is hiding, but fortunately, we found this!”

Henrik clenched the voodoo doll in his hand.

“Thanks to you, Roger!”

Henrik pulled out a backpack from the trunk. He moved quickly and quickly cleared an open space. Then he set up the props and drew the voodoo doll on the placed circle.

This is Roger’s first time to observe a truly mysterious ritual up close.

Henrik poured himself a bottle of unknown liquid. After 10 seconds, he was refreshed, with a strange rhythm in his voice.

When the sound approached the high-pitched apex, Henrik lit the surrounding objects, then drew a dagger, cut the palm of his hand, and sprinkled blood on the voodoo doll in the circle.

Boom!

A white smoke rose, as if the doll was howling in pain, and then the voodoo doll spontaneously ignited without fire, turned into a plume of black smoke, and penetrated into Henrik’s eyebrows.

The figure shook slightly.

“I will show you the way.”

“I know where that guy is hiding!”

Henrik said in a deep voice.
