I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 336: A Murder Case with a Strange Timing: A Refugee Girl from the Middle East

My friend's crisis has been resolved, and by the way, a scumbag who killed his wife has also been sent away.

Tom seemed to be in a good mood now, and he took the initiative to chat with Su Fan in the back seat.

"Sue have you ever been to London before?"

"Never came."

Su Fan answered truthfully.

No matter which country you are in, not many people have the time and money to travel.

Old Man Su supported him to go to school, and it was already very difficult to repay the student loan. Before he became financially independent, Su Fan did not ask for too many enjoyable activities such as traveling.

I originally thought I would be hanging out in California for the rest of my life, but now I'm running around performing exorcisms and have seen a lot of things.

"Do you need to go for a walk around the neighborhood?"

Tom suddenly asked this question.

"Anyway, there's still some time before dark."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt Su Fan's gaze from the back seat sweeping over as if he could see through everything.

Tom immediately sat up straight.

There has never been much nightlife, and he has to move around at any time, so he doesn't have much chance to travel around.

London itself is also a world-renowned financial center, so there must be a lot of things to do.

"Not interested."

"Then let's go back now?"

"Ah."

Su Fan answered casually.

The cultural landscapes in this world are all pretty much the same, Europe and the United States are almost the same, there is nothing to see.

Besides, where was he going? London's iconic attractions had little appeal to Soufan.

Buckingham Palace? Hanging around the gate?

Big Ben? He's not some internet celebrity who likes to check in.

The British Museum? Forget it, because when you see the cultural relics of the great Eastern country, you will not be reminded of the glorious history of the Qing Dynasty.

Compared with these, Su Fan had some ideas about the scenery of the north.

[My health is good now, so even going to the North Pole wouldn’t be affected much.]

Sit by the campfire at night and watch the northern lights, next to the calm lake reflecting the starry sky.

Maybe we can catch a few Erhala sleds...

It seems that even in the second life, southerners cannot get rid of their obsession with ice, snow and the north wind.

Thinking of Erha, Su Fan thought of Ron again.

There has been no news about this witch for a long time, and I don't know if she is still dealing with internal family affairs.

Just as Su Fan was thinking this, he felt that the speed of the car under him suddenly slowed down.

"It seems like there was a case ahead, and the traffic is blocked."

As Tom explained, Su Fan looked out of the car window.

Sure enough, I saw the familiar cordon set up and relevant staff were carrying a body covered with a white cloth in and out.

It's over. I've dealt with so many death cases that this cordon seems so friendly to me.

But this is not the point. The point is that Su Fan and Tom have now arrived at the entrance of the temporary housing community.

[It's a bit strange.]

Su Fan's mind moved, and his spiritual sense immediately spread out.

After a moment, a look of doubt appeared on his face.

There is no strong yin energy left... nor any trace of demonic activity...

There was nothing in the room except blood and the collected murder weapons.

It looked like a completely ordinary homicide case with no supernatural powers involved.

But Su Fan always felt something was wrong.

"parking."

Tom heard this without saying anything. He immediately went to the side of the road, found an empty spot, turned off the engine and took out the key.

"Do you need to get off?"

"Need not."

This place is only about two hundred meters away from the house, and the spiritual sense can completely illuminate it, so there is no need to deal with the police and the onlookers.

Su Fan released his spiritual sense again, this time increasing the intensity of the scan.

But right now.

"Knock Knock Knock..."

The sound of knuckles hitting glass windows came from my ears.

Su Fan frowned, looked up and rolled down the window.

The person I saw was a white lady.

The heavy makeup could not cover the rough and wrinkled skin, and the pair of eyes on top of the hooked nose were wide open and full of anger.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your chat, but I have to make it clear that you can't park here."

The other party made his request, but Su Fan did not answer.

Although the word "sorry" was said above, the other party's tone was sarcastic.

If you have a parking problem, you should go to the cab and talk to the driver, but this white lady came to the back seat.

I feel that the other person’s IQ is not very high.

“Why can’t we stop here?”

Su Fan didn't say anything, but Tom in the driver's seat would not remain silent.

"I just checked, this shouldn't be a private parking space."

"No reason, you'd better drive your junk car away now."

Tom's attitude was acceptable, but the white lady didn't give him any face at all and spoke in a rude tone.

"If you disturb my grandson's sleep, I will ask my son Ben to come out and give you a good beating!"

The vicious tone did not scare Tom, but made him laugh.

"I haven't honked the horn once since then."

"And I live in this community, but I've never heard of such a rule... If you want to find your son, let him come."

Firstly, this is not a restricted area that requires a parking permit, and secondly, it is not private territory, so short-term parking is not a problem at all.

Tom's answer made the aunt's already unhappy expression even more angry.

"Is it fun? Driving a worthless junky car and wandering around the community with your mediocre out partner, homosexuals like you should go to hell."

Before the aunt finished speaking, Tom's face turned into shock, and then into anger.

But just when he was about to get off the car and have a good talk with this old lady, a voice rang out.

"You said we disturbed your grandson's sleep?"

"But he should be in his room right now, bingeing the movie playing on his computer."

His tone was calm and slightly joking, as if he didn't take the other party's threat seriously at all.

"Why don't you go back and check on him, lest he faint and die."

Tom, who was sitting in the front seat, knew that what Su Fan said was generally correct.

So this aunt's grandson is probably really doing some handicraft.

The white lady's face changed drastically, and then she spoke with a sneer and pronounced each word slowly.

"I don't know what kind of terrible place the country you were born in is that allows you to spread rumors and slander others at will."

"Unfortunately, I won't be so kind as to let you go. Now, I will file a complaint against your actions to the community."

"Go ahead, but remember to put on more perfume. I can smell the old man odor on you from such a distance. Of course, that's assuming you can say it out loud."

Su Fan said lightly.

His words did not receive a rebuttal as before. Tom turned his head and was surprised to find that the white woman could not speak a complete sentence, but could only utter meaningless syllables such as "wooooooah". Realizing that she could not speak, she covered her throat in disbelief, and then suddenly let out a terrified howl and crawled away from here.

Although she couldn't speak, Su Fan could still understand the words she repeated before she escaped.

devil.

"Su, did you take away her ability to speak?"

Tom looked at Su Fan with horror.

Silently destroying the other person's language function... It's so terrifying.

"It's just to silence the noisy toad for a while."

Su Fan answered casually.

He had actually heard of this kind of white lady before.

A group of people that are abundant in Canada and Europe, the indigenous people who think they are superior to others, are keen on racial discrimination, like to interrupt others when they are talking, and complain about everything. The words they always say are "You should go back to your country"...

The high-frequency name Karen among this type of people is used directly to refer to similar sarcastic women.

Su Fan was quite impatient to be interrupted by this foreign idiot, but fortunately he used the ability of Nightmare to confuse the five senses, causing the idiot to temporarily become speechless.

It was only about a week, but it was enough for her to feel better.

"So are we leaving here now?"

"Leave? Then what was the point of me teaching that old woman a lesson just now?"

"you're right……"

After dealing with "Karen" who came to cause trouble, Su Fan continued the investigation that was interrupted just now.

The absence of Yin energy does not mean that nothing is playing tricks. Apart from direct evil spirits taking lives, there are many other ways to manipulate humans into murdering those around them.

For example, the voodoo that Sufan had encountered before, and the curse that Basshiba buried in the water.

In order to prevent it from happening again, he must get to the bottom of this strangely timed murder and see if there is some other existence behind it.

The spiritual consciousness, like a tide, passed through the walls and spread to every corner of the house.

Dining room, bedroom, kitchen...

All areas are free of any evil objects.

Su Fan thought about it for a moment, and with an idea, he let his spiritual sense penetrate the floor to search if there was any hollow area underneath.

Sure enough, a dark object was lying quietly under the floor...

……

After arriving at her new residence carrying her bags, Katie closed the door immediately.

【There's something wrong with this building. 】

The previous conversation with the landlord and tenants emerged in her mind.

Judging from the prices and the people living here, it seems that the people accepted here are women with poor financial conditions and illegal identities.

Including but not limited to fallen girls and illegal immigrants.

The money that can be obtained from them is very little, but the decoration here is not that shabby.

The only explanation is that the landlord paid for the renovation.

In this case, why would he be indifferent to the rent she paid?

unless……

[His main source of income is not from renting out houses.]

Of course, there is a slim chance that the other party is kind-hearted and trusts others, but to do so without government subsidies is probably a sign of mental disorder.

Katie took off her boots and prepared to put on slippers.

But considering that the house was not as warm as before, she did not choose to go barefoot but put on cotton socks.

When passing by the huge mirror, I couldn't help but stop.

This thing was just a fake prepared to confuse the ghost nun, but if it was broken, she would have to spend money to prepare a new one, so Katie hung it on the wall.

But this time, she didn't come to get it, but to take out the coins she often used for fortune-telling.

There are no special requirements for the coins used for divination, but Katie used the same three coins that she used for her first divination.

Also known as a lucky coin.

But just as she was about to tell the fortune, there was a noise at the door.

Katie was quite alert. She immediately stopped all movements and listened attentively.

The footsteps were very light, and the other person was lingering at the door, not knowing what he wanted to do.

She got up from the bed, took out the knife for self-defense from her bag, walked to the door, and pulled it open.

What I saw was a thin young girl with a sallow complexion, appearing to be malnourished.

Perhaps Katie's action frightened her, and the girl dropped the plate in her hand to the ground.

Their eyes fell on the stained toast on the floor at the same time, and then they looked at each other.

After a long moment, Katie spoke awkwardly.

"Sorry... I thought it was a thief..."

"fine."

The girl shook her head, but the next second loud bowel sounds were heard.

"Why don't you come in and have something to eat... I have some instant biscuits."

Katie looked at the girl who looked a little embarrassed and extended an invitation.

She caused the other party to have nothing to eat, so this can be considered as making up for it.

By the way, get some information.

The girl hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

The two entered the room, Katie took out some dry food and poured a glass of water, and they sat at the table, eating and chatting.

Her kindness was reciprocated. Although the girl was a little hesitant at the beginning, she later showed trust and talked about the reasons why she came here.

Her name is Anbei, and she is a refugee from the Middle East.

There was war in that country, so I had no choice but to come to England.

The reason she came to London was because her uncle's family lived here.

"Although my uncle is good to me, my aunt and cousin..."

Amber didn't say anything more, but Katie guessed what was going on.

She herself grew up boarding at a relative's home and was very familiar with that feeling.

An Bei moved out to live on her own, probably because she was worried that her uncle would be in a dilemma.

Now the former works illegally in a factory, relying on the microblog salary offered by his boss to support himself.

"Where are your parents?"

Katie asked curiously.

"My father died in the army, and my mother...died of cancer some time ago..."

"Feel sorry……"

Both my parents are gone, I have no worries but I am also alone. No wonder I am in this situation now.

Hearing that this little girl from the Middle East was in a situation very similar to her own, Katie couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.

"Are you still hungry? I have more here."

Seeing that the other party had finished eating, she asked very warmly if he wanted more food.

"No, thanks. I'm full."

Amber waved his hand.

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Katie."

She paused, hesitant, and then spoke.

"From the way you dress and talk, I don't think you'd stay here. Did something happen to you?"

"If I have offended you, I would like to apologize in advance."
