I'm a spy in the film

Chapter 208 Past events

Notan waited patiently for Bourne to finish retching before saying:

"You shouldn't have pushed her too hard. I think she will take some risk tonight, and her target will be you."

"Isn't this just perfect? ​​When she comes, we'll destroy her completely."

Bourne wiped the corner of his mouth and said nonchalantly.

Seeing that Notan didn't say anything, Bourne asked again: "Why, is what I said wrong?"

“No, Master, the puppeteer is notoriously difficult to destroy because you don’t know which is her real body and which is her puppet.

Many people fail at this point, and the puppet master escapes, leaving the tiger behind to become a threat.

Besides, puppet masters are very resentful. Master, you don’t want your loved ones to be secretly threatened by a puppet master all day long, right? "

Hearing this, Bourne finally took it seriously. He had not thought of this just now.

If tonight really goes as he expected, using fireballs or holy light to deal with Mary Shaw will certainly be able to repel the opponent, but he will also be exposed. By then, he will be fine, but his relatives who are related to him...

No, we must completely destroy the enemy!

Only then did Mary Shaw enter Bourne’s must-kill list!

But how to completely eliminate the puppet master? Bourne did not give up.

"We must find the other party's lair and destroy all of their puppets!" Notan replied: "There is only one way."

"What if we can't find them all?" Bourne asked.

“Then at least destroy the opponent’s core puppet!

Each puppeteer has no more than three core puppets.

These puppets are like relay stations, managing and commanding the puppeteer's huge puppet army; they are also like memory storage devices, carrying and recording some of the puppeteer's emotional memories.

Moreover, these core puppets are closely connected to each other. If you get one, you can catch all of them by following the clues."

"You mean the doll called Billy that Jamie got?"

"Yes, you also read in the investigation report that in the 40s, when Mary Shaw performed in the theater in this small town, the puppet she used most often was Billy. Jamie also said that when he got this puppet, he felt that the puppet was sometimes secretly watching him.

Only the core puppet can carry the puppeteer's soul power for a long time and make delicate movements like a human. Other ordinary puppets can only allow the puppeteer's soul power to attach temporarily and not for a long time. Therefore, the puppet named Billy must be the core puppet. "

Bourne suddenly realized, "So, you didn't let me bring the puppet because you were afraid that the puppet would find out that we were fake. You also asked John Zhao to bring the puppet along for this reason!"

"That's right, so, Master, it's time to act!"

"Okay, let's go visit the last key person now."

Henry Walker is the director and undertaker of a small town funeral home.

Thanks to Jamie Ash's father, Edward Ash, the business was neither good nor bad, but it was always able to survive.

This funeral home is his family's ancestral property.

Today, he met an unexpected person and was asked an unexpected question.

"You want to know Mary Shaw's story?"

He looked at Bourne, who was wearing a Jamie simulation mask, in surprise, and had no doubt that the person in front of him was a fake.

"Henry, you know the reason I came back is that my wife was murdered, and it is very likely that Mary Shaw killed her!"

Bourne walked around the office pretending to be excited, and from time to time he pulled his hair with both hands. This hair was his own, so he was not afraid of damaging it.

"Come on, Jamie, come on."

Henry quickly stepped forward and grabbed Bourne's hands, saying sincerely:

"I can only tell you what I know. You need to ask Mr. Edward for more details, because your family built the theater, and Mary Shaw was invited by your grandfather from another place."

what?

Bourne didn't expect that Mary Shaw was so deeply involved with the Ash family.

Seeing that Bourne had calmed down, Henry pulled him to sit on the sofa and began to tell him a story of love, hate and passion.

That was in the 40s, when Jamie's grandfather, Mr. Edward Sr., was still alive, and it was he who led his people to build the town of Ravens.

To be honest, the geographical location here is very good: located in the northeast corner of the Appalachian Mountains, guarding the only road into the mountains, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery, it is a Feng Shui treasure land whether for living or doing business.

Old Mr. Edward was very smart. On the one hand, he built many warehouses at the foot of the mountain to purchase and store the hunters' mountain products. On the other hand, he built hotels around the Lost Lake and used low room rates to attract merchants to stay for a long time. Finally, in order to retain more people, he also built a puppet theater on a small island in the lake.

Mary Shaw was invited by him at that time.

Mary Shaw was already quite old at that time. Although she was well-known for her puppet performances, her favorite thing was making puppets. Every child in the town was proud to have a puppet made by Mary Shaw herself.

The more exquisite the puppets Mary Shaw made, the better her performances became, and the more audiences came to watch her performances.

The town soon ushered in its second wave of prosperity, and old Mr. Edward went to the theater more frequently.

Oh, some people said they saw old Mr. Edward naked in the theater. How is that possible? Mary Shaw is almost sixty years old, and old Mr. Edward is seventy years old. What can they do?

Henry shook his head and continued.

Mary Shaw was a strange person. She didn't like to buy rouge and powder and floating skirts that ordinary women liked. She spent all her earnings on buying all kinds of strange materials and didn't have any money left, so that later those people didn't find any valuables in her house.

Some people say that she loves dolls more than she loves children, and some even say that she is possessed!

The accident happened at a pre-Halloween performance.

Mr. Edward's nephew Mike, who was not even ten years old, suddenly said in front of everyone that Mary Shaw's doll could not speak at all, and it was she who was speaking. He also swore that he saw Mary Shaw's throat moving.

No one cares about this because no one believes that the puppets will really make sounds. People watch the show just to kill time and have fun, not to find out the truth!

But something went wrong that night!

Mike disappeared without a trace.

The adult men in the town spontaneously organized themselves to search for her, and two teams even went into the mountains, but none of them found her.

Finally, some women who stayed in the town said that they heard a child crying in the Grand Theater on the Lake Island.

The returning men rushed into the theater and demanded to know the whereabouts of the little boy, but when they got no result, they cut off Mary Shaw's tongue and destroyed her home.

Mary Shaw died.

After she died, her body was sent here and my father took care of her funeral.

Having said that, Henry looked straight ahead, as if he was thinking of some bad experience.

Bourne waited patiently for a moment before asking, "And then, Mr. Henry?"

Henry was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Bourne. A look of horror suddenly appeared on his face. He stood up and pointed at something in the hand of a person walking towards him outside the window, and said in panic:

“Billy, that’s the Billy that Mary Shaw uses most often in her performances. Mary Shaw is back!”

Bourne looked in the direction of Henry's finger and saw a tall young FBI agent standing at the entrance of the funeral home, looking at the inscription on the sign.

In his hand, he was holding a one-meter-tall wooden doll. It was Billy that Henry mentioned, and the doll found in Jamie's house.

Bourne knew this agent, his name was Zack.

"Now that all the supporting roles are here, only the main character is left, Mary Shaw. I hope you will be satisfied with the farewell ceremony I prepared for you."

A smile appeared on Bourne's lips.
