Chapter 1972: Let me lend you a helping hand (1 more)

Views:

With the primary sound waves activated, Luke quickly found his target—the oldest nun, Mary, who was already seventy-three years old.

As soon as the thought came to her mind, the old nun told Anna Esek her real name: Sister Bell.

What surprised Luke was that Sister Bell did not live with other people, but in a meditation room deep in the convent.

The term "meditation cell" is a modified term. In fact, it refers to the ascetic room or confinement room from early times, which is specially used for ascetic nuns to meditate or for punishing nuns who violate the rules.

Therefore, the only people in the convent who knew Sister Bell were the two oldest nuns and the mother superior.

It was the previous abbess who allowed Sister Bell to meditate there.

Sister Mary also said that Sister Bell had dedicated everything to God and was the most steadfast believer.

Luke looked strange: From the information left in the mental hospital, this Anna Esek didn't seem to be that kind of person.

He stepped into a secret corridor. The stone-paved road was very flat, but the surroundings gradually became cold and damp.

This is the bottom of the hillside behind the convent.

The 1.5-meter-wide corridor was lit only by a few dim incandescent lamps.

Various crosses were placed and hung along the way, and the lights cast various sharp shadows in the corridor, making the place even darker and more eerie.

Luke cancelled his invisibility, revealed his form as Beidou, and continued forward in a swagger.

When it’s time to take the blame, the number one scapegoat will never be afraid!

Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. In certain situations, it is important to let your opponents know who is responsible for punishing them.

After walking more than fifty meters, the corridor came to an end, where an old wooden door stood.

The knife flashed and chopped straight through the thick gap in the door. With a few slight clinking sounds, the bolt on the back was cut off.

Luke sheathed his sword and pushed the door open, as calmly as if he were walking into his own home.

A round room, not small in size but with a low roof.

This is normal, after all, it is an antique that has been built into the hillside.

Opposite the door of the room is a cross, on which Ji Ge carved a cross in the same shape that has remained unchanged for a hundred years.

Below is a row of white candles, emitting a hazy and dim light.

Hmm, it feels like that. Luke's eyes fell on a nun kneeling in front of the cross and praying... and on the dark lines crossing the ground below him, he commented in his heart.

"Anna Esek." He greeted her as soon as he opened his mouth.

The other person's body trembled, and after a moment she slowly stood up and turned her head, revealing the face of a middle-aged woman, vaguely resembling Anna Esek in the file.

She asked in a dry voice: "Who are you?"

Luke: "It doesn't matter who I am. I just want to ask you, do you know a ghost who can kill people through a mirror?"

Anna's body trembled, and she seemed terrified: "You, you were bewitched by her!"

I found the right person so quickly! Luke laughed in his heart: "No, you can think of me as that... um, demon hunter, the kind that specializes in hunting these monsters."

Anna was stunned: "You were sent by the Vatican?"

Luke shook his head calmly: "The Vatican said that this task was entrusted to me."

Anna: “What?”

She had never heard that the Vatican would entrust such a task to... someone like this

But she, who had long since left society, was a little skeptical: Could it be that times have changed? Now exorcists don't wear priest robes, but knight armor

Luke was not interested in delaying any longer, so he used pheromone control + real dream: "Okay, tell me the origin of that thing?"

Anna: "I... I don't know either. My father bought me a doll named Annabell that year, and then a lot of strange things happened at home. Later, someone said that I had mental problems and sent me to a mental hospital for treatment."

Luke became interested: "Why are all the patients in the mental hospital dead?"

Anna: "I was taken to a room surrounded by mirrors, and then they powered up a chair, saying that this would heal me. Then Annabelle was forced out of my body and into the mirror. The people around me suddenly went crazy and started killing each other. It wasn't until the next day that a priest took me out of there and sent me here to live."

Luke seemed to have figured out the connection: "So, the ghost is the Annabell doll? What's her origin?"

Anna: "I only know her name, and it seems she was once a little girl."

Luke waited for a few seconds but heard nothing further. He asked in surprise, "That's it?"

Anna lowered her head, looking helpless: “That’s all I know.”

Luke hesitated for a moment and said, "Then why are you imprisoned here?"

Anna shook her head. "I just live here. The priest and the dean said that if I leave here, Annabelle will probably find me and control me again."

Luke held his chin, as if he was thinking about something.

"Where's that Annabell doll you were talking about?" he suddenly asked.

Anna hesitated for a long time this time: "I haven't been back since I was sent to the mental hospital. Maybe... I'm still at home?"

Luke: "OK, tell me your family information."

After a moment, Luke closed the door again, walked out of the corridor, and flew into the sky invisibly.

At this moment, the convent in the mountains was shrouded in the bright morning sunshine, appearing exceptionally peaceful and tranquil.

He looked down at it, a playful smile in his eyes: This matter... is quite interesting!

Ms. Esek, let me lend a helping hand and help you escape from the sea of suffering as soon as possible! Luke's mind turned, and the armor slowly accelerated and flew towards the more remote mountainous area in the northeast.

Anna Esek's home is in that direction. There are indeed a few old houses there on the satellite map, and there are also signs of human activity.

Luke only used the lowest stealth cruise speed and it took more than ten minutes to arrive.

Looking at the old house that seemed like a haunted house, he walked in stealthily and used a real dream to control a man in his fifties inside.

This man is Anna's brother Tom Esseck, a self-sufficient farmer living in seclusion here.

Tom didn't resist at all and confessed everything to himself.

Luke didn't meet him, but went straight into the basement storage room and found a glass cabinet in the corner.

In the closet was a little girl doll wearing a lace dress.

It has deep nasolabial folds, two dark blushes, and the smile on its face looks very strange.

Luke stood in front of the glass case and looked closely.

In fact, his gaze quickly shifted from the doll to the glass of the glass cabinet—these pieces of glass actually had a faint power of faith.

This thing is extremely rare nowadays.

There are too few devout believers and priests who grew up in modern society. The crosses and holy water in most churches do not have even a trace of faith and are absolutely just for show.

These pieces of glass may not have meant much a hundred years ago, but now they are considered a powerful weapon for exorcism.

If you meet someone who really knows what they are doing, they would be willing to spend millions of dollars to buy them.
