Rooney was sitting at the desk, fiddling with something with a dull look on her face. Because of the angle, Roger could not see what Rooney had on her hands, but the expression on his face was very strange.

There is a little...obsession in the dullness.

Dongdongdongdongdongdong!

Roger knocked on the door casually.

The crisp sound seemed a little harsh in the empty hospital, but Rooney seemed to hear it at all. He lowered his head and immersed in his own world.

"What's going on?"

Henrik stopped and asked in a low voice.

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

Bang!

Henrik exerted force violently, and the door opened in response. Rooney, who was frightened, raised his head at this time, and Roger also saw the items he was fiddling with.

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

For some reason, Roger couldn't help feeling shudder when he saw this ordinary doll.

"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, with a hint of sharpness in his eyes.

"It doesn't matter yet?"

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

"What? Oh... are you talking about this doll?" Rooney was a little stunned, and he shook his dizzy head.

“It’s a courier.”

He flipped over the label on the box and said, "It's strange, it should be the data and video. How could it turn into a straw doll?"

"What is this?"

Roger asked in a low voice, he had heard of the voodoo doll, as if it was used to curse or something.

"Go and wash your face and have a good rest." Henrik said to Rooney, who nodded dullly and left the room.

"Let's go!"

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

"This is a kind of voodoo technique, and it is a core witchcraft. The doll has different effects depending on the material of the doll, straw, doll, pottery, bone, etc.."

"Like this one in front of you."

Henrik reached out and pulled 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 activated it through the ritual with mysterious power."

"When the practitioner gets this doll, he will involuntarily be attracted by it, be mentally disturbed, and do something terrible without consciousness."

“For example…kill someone!”

"Gilmore!"

Roger said in a deep voice.

Henrik nodded, "It seems that Hannam should know that he has been exposed, so he will take action immediately."

"No! No!"

Henrik frowned, as if he had thought of something.

"The ceremony requires a lot of things to be prepared, and it also requires a specific casting time, which cannot be so fast."

"This guy has obviously been preparing for a long time, and it was just because of our appearance that he planned ahead!"

"What a meticulous, cunning and insidious guy"

"He left a scapegoat in the manor tragedy, allowing himself to escape successfully, and attracted the attention of the police and public opinion at the same time."

"After getting rid of the suspicion, he did not immediately start killing and strengthening the evil spirits, but waited patiently, waiting for the matter to gradually calm down before finishing as planned."

Henrik analyzed.

Roger suddenly thought of a question, "You just said that the evil spirit that Hannam has mastered can already leave the birthplace."

"Will this new evil spirit not have such ability at the beginning when the ceremony was just completed, just after he led people to the manor last time?"

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

Henrik was stunned at first after hearing Roger's words, then his face changed drastically.

"not good!"

"This guy is going to run away!"

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

"Your analysis makes sense. If this evil spirit could leave the manor from the beginning, then there was no need for Hannam to stay here for so long and put the place where the first kill was killed! "

"He had already washed away the suspense and gradually faded the tragedy of the manor. He would create killings, which would only cause people to doubt."

"That is to say, he had a reason to do so. At that time, the evil spirits could not leave the manor. He had to take people there, nourish the evil spirits with the fear of everyone, and then strengthen them through killing!"

Start the car, "Now his evil spirit can leave the manor, and he starts the final finishing work again, as long as Gilmore dies."

"All clues will be completely cut off."

"Even if the guild sends people to investigate, no results will be found!"

"This guy!!"

Henrik let out a low growl.

From the beginning of the investigation, he was led by someone, and it was not until now that he could clarify the clues and wake up.

"What should we do now?"

After understanding the causes and consequences, Roger also knew that if he didn't find Hannam as soon as possible and let him leave Swamp Town, then the world would be so big that it would be impossible to find.

"The original package was dropped by someone. It must have been done by this guy. He shouldn't have gone far yet, and time may still be available."

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

"Can you drive?" Henrik asked.

Roger hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Yes, it's just that there's no certificate."

Roger was also an old driver in his previous life.

"You'll drive later!"

“I need to have a simple ceremony.”

Henrik said in a deep voice.

"It's so dangerous. If we don't come here tonight, Gilmore will be killed by Rooney early tomorrow morning, and all clues will be completely cut off."

"Although we don't know where Hannam is now, fortunately, we discovered this!"

Henrik tightly holds the voodoo doll in his hand.

"Thanks to you, Roger!"

Henrik pulled out a backpack from the trunk. He moved quickly and quickly cleared out a piece of open space, then arranged props and drew the voodoo doll on the placed magic circle.

This is Roger's first close observation of a truly mysterious ritual.

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

When the sound was approaching high, Henrik ignited the items around him, then pulled out a dagger, cut his palm, and scattered blood on the voodoo doll in the magic circle.

Oh!

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

His figure swayed slightly.

"I'll give you the way."

"I know where that guy is hiding!"
