Beginning with the Marvel Omnibus

Chapter 43 is full of pitfalls!

"You said you chose the eve of Halloween to exorcise Emily?" Lin Bei couldn't believe his ears!
Halloween, which belongs to the West's ghost festival, is also a day when souls wander in the world. Father Moore chose to exorcise demons on that day, which is no less than wrestling with evil forces on Halloween, and comparing muscles with werewolves on the night of the full moon. Isn't it nonsense!

In an instant, Lin Bei began to question whether Father Dolan wanted to continue digging holes for himself by letting him learn exorcism from this Father Moore!
"What's wrong? Halloween is a festival to exorcise ghosts. I thought that day would increase the success rate of the exorcism ceremony and help me exorcise the demon possessed by Emily!"

What Father Moore said is plausible!On the contrary, it seemed that Lin Bei was ignorant!
"But you have overlooked that Halloween is also the time when the spirit world is closest to the human world, and on that night, when the evil forces are most active, increase the success rate! Ha! It's hard to find a worse day than that!"

As soon as Lin Bei's words fell, Father Moore's face turned pale, and big drops of cold sweat rolled down from his temples. It is not difficult to find that when he realized how serious his mistakes were, he always thought he was right. , I also know why he couldn't get rid of the demon on Emily!
"Besides reciting the Bible, what other means did you use?" Father Moore's exorcism ceremony is seriously like a joke in Linbei, but since Father Dolan asked himself to learn, he must understand clearly!

"We used the Bible in the name of God to force the demon on her body to tell her its real name. Once it told its real name, God would not let it stay in the world. I also used a cross to imprint it on its body, and the cross worked. , but the real name it said is simply false!"

Father Moore lowered his head, like a primary school student who made mistakes. He felt worthless in front of Lin Bei, and he was deeply guilty, which made him feel sorry for Emily's trust.

"Where's the holy water? Didn't you use holy water?" I've never seen pork, but I've seen pigs running. Lin Bei is a seasoned drama fan, so at least he knows that holy water is needed to exorcise demons!

"No, only the archdiocese has holy water, and I didn't carry it!"

Pit father ah!For such a priest, if the exorcism ceremony held by him can be successful, then he must have seen a ghost!But it's not useless, at least knowing that the cross has a restraining effect on demons, and holy water, these two things must be prepared by the people of the Holy See.

"I have nothing more to ask, Attorney Erin, do you have any questions?"

"Ah! I want to confirm one more thing! Father Moore, are you insisting not to sign the confession with the police? As far as I know, the police are sincere enough. As long as you sign the confession with the understanding of your family members, your The sentence will be shortened to twelve months, and if you behave well, you can be released in six months, this is the biggest concession for the police!"

Father Moore inserted his hands into his hair, held his head and said in a muffled voice, "I said, it's not my business anymore. If I plead guilty, it will encourage the forces of darkness, and they will become more unscrupulous. I will be ashamed because of this, and I will not sign the confession!"

"Okay, I will plead your innocence in court. If there is any problem, I will come to see you again! You can let me know if you need anything! First of all, these damn policemen should give you a blanket, and Not an orange prison uniform!"

Irene protested against the detention center and asked them to solve the problem of keeping Father Moore warm, and then followed Lin Bei out of the detention center.

When the three of them got into the car Irene rented, Irene finally couldn't restrain her curiosity, and asked Lin Bei, the co-pilot, "Mr. Lin, based on your experience, is what Father Moore said true? Is it true in the world?" Are there demons?"

Lin Bei looked at the curious Lawyer Irene, this ambitious lawyer who became famous in New York, actually cared about the devil!

Lin Bei looked at her very seriously, and said in a very serious tone, as if talking to himself, "There is a saying in Huaxia, which is groundless, which means that the spread of news and rumors is not completely without reason. Exaggerated exaggeration, I have never experienced demons, but I have encountered ogres who returned to the world, and I have also spoken to wizards who tried to destroy the world. In the world you and I live in today, science cannot explain it With all the things, who can guarantee that more evil things will not happen!"

What Lin Bei said made Irene a little confused. She didn't understand the meaning of the Chinese idioms Lin Bei said, but she seemed to have believed what Father Moore just said!Demons do exist, and they are around people, which somewhat subverts her perception of the world!

"Chloe, come and drive! Lawyer Irene may not be suitable for continuing to drive! Next, let's go to Emily's house to take a look!"

The car drove out of the detention center parking lot and headed directly towards Emily's house on the main road. The route had been set in the navigation, so even if Chloe was driving, she wouldn't go in the wrong direction.

The three of them were very silent along the way, no one was in the mood to speak, and they were all shocked by the devil's incident. They also expressed deep sympathy for what happened to Emily. A young girl was tortured to death by the devil in this way. This is tantamount to provoking God!

Lin Bei was also thinking. In the Marvel universe, there are not many descriptions of the gods in heaven, but hell does exist. Ghost Rider is a human being who has signed a contract with the devil. What Father Moore is worried about is that once he is If you are found guilty, God will disappoint the world. At that time, all the members of the Holy See will no longer be effective in exorcising demons in the name of God. That is the real disaster. Don’t think that God loves the world. When you are not there When you believe in Him, you will also not get shelter!
Emily's home is far away. It took three hours to drive from Charlotte to her family's farm. The sky has been gloomy since it was about to arrive at Emily's family's farm. The sky seems to be covered with a layer of haze. Even in the sun, there is no warmth at all.

The farm was very desolate. There was a dilapidated two-story wooden building next to a barn. Straw was piled up outside the barn. Four or five wild cats were looking at the three people who got out of the car with unkind eyes!He didn't intend to communicate with Lin Bei at all.

The three were greeted by Emily's mother, a traditional housewife who had no fashionable clothes and her face was full of marks left by the years. She was not surprised by the arrival of the three of them!But it's impossible to say welcome, she has not yet come out of the grief of Emily's death.

During the whole process, Lin Bei and Chloe were watching and listening to Lawyer Irene's conversation with her. There were also cats in the house, and they also looked at the three of Lin Bei. It seemed that Lin Bei's arrival had disturbed their lives!
Drinking bitter coffee, Lin Bei asked the first question, "Ma'am, may I ask what happened to the cross hanging upside down on the wall?"

On one wall of the living room, the cross was hanging upside down, which made Lin Bei feel very uncomfortable, not because he was so religious, but because all the bad feelings came from there!
