Chapter 620: Morbid Crisis (IX)
"Sister, I'm sorry that I can't sit by your bed and communicate with you as usual. When you see this letter, I may have been in hell talking to the devil."
"I often tell you that I hope to go to heaven, but when I write this letter, I know that I'm afraid I can only go to hell."
"I'm sorry, you must be very sad now, sad about my death, but I want to tell you that it's all worth it, and now you don't have time to be sad, there is one thing you must do, so that my death will not be in vain."
"Our parents sent me to this mental hospital for 16 years. I have lived here for a long time and know every brick and tile, every blade of grass and every tree here, but about two years ago, a group of people came here, claiming to be geological researchers. Researchers are here to explore the underground water structure of the metropolis. "
"At first, I was very interested in their project because I didn't have the opportunity to go to school, and each of them had received higher education. I like chatting with them, and they can teach me a lot of knowledge that I don't know. "
"I met a very good friend, her name is Edith, who graduated from the Metropolitan University, which is my dream university. "
"But I know this hospital so well that I found some clues. I found that they are not studying the underground water structure of the metropolis, but doing more evil experiments. "
"I can't understand what they are doing, but I know that they have opened a laboratory underground for some chemical experiments. They may want to put the results of the experiment into the groundwater. and then contaminate all the citizens of the metropolis."
"When you see this letter, I should have died, but what may make you very sad and disappointed is that I did commit suicide, and the purpose was to allow you to come here, and then expose this terrible conspiracy and save those innocent people."
"The story started about two weeks ago. Edith, a researcher who had a very good relationship with me, suddenly rushed into my ward one night. She was seriously injured. Before she died, she told me that she was a Soviet spy who had infiltrated this mysterious organization and became one of them."
"And that night, she finally got the crucial research data, which contained the formula of the mysterious chemical agent. She had no way to pass this information out. So, she handed me the information in her hand. "
"She didn't ask me to pass the information back to the Soviet Union. She just asked me to stop all these conspiracies and not let innocent people suffer."
"She died in my ward. When I pretended to sleep, I buried my head in the pillow. No one could see my tears. They didn't care about me, so I escaped this disaster."
"I have spent most of my life in this mental hospital. I have never been to school, I don't have any friends, I have never completed anything, but I know that I must complete this thing."
"But I have no other way. I am not an agent. I have not received training. It is impossible for me to leave this mental hospital. The only way to reveal the information is to lead you here."
"I can't communicate with you rashly, and I can't even call. They monitor everything in this city. It's more terrible than you think, so I can only use this method to tell you all this."
"I know that you are an excellent detective. You will definitely investigate the scene of my death repeatedly, so you will definitely find this letter. "
"My dear sister, if you see this, I must tell you, don't be impulsive, because the darkness you see is just the tip of the iceberg."
"They rule this city, can see everyone, hear every word, everyone here is their prey."
"Find enough allies, find enough evidence to fight them. If you think you can't do all this, then take this letter and stay away from here, the farther the better... Never come back."
"Your sister who loves you forever, Isabel Dodgson, last words."
"Snap", Bruce closed the letter in his hand, put the letter back into the envelope, and then put the envelope back in place, and put the board back to its original position.
"Things are worse than we thought." Bruce knew more about the inside story than Isabel who wrote the letter. He said: "Although this is a suburb, it is not far from the urban area of the metropolis, and it is a regular mental hospital. "
"To conduct geological exploration here, or even to build an independent chemical laboratory, it is necessary to go through layers of approval, and funds are indispensable."
"At the same time, the president of the Central Bank and the boss of the Palo Company are aware of this. Their business may be to provide funds for this laboratory."
"This means that, as Isabel wrote in the letter, a mysterious organization rules the city, politics, economy, culture... They are omnipresent."
Bruce turned his head and looked out the window. The prosperous lights of the metropolis were not as bright as they seemed. There was a deeper darkness hidden in it. He murmured to himself, "Owl..."
Following his line of sight, a car slowly stopped in the weeds outside the wall of the mental hospital. Constantine and Angela got out of the car. Constantine jumped onto the hood of the car, stretched out a hand to cover his eyes, and looked into the mental hospital.
"Are you sure it's here? Why do I feel that this place is more like a military zone than a mental hospital?"
Angela took out her pistol and looked at the yard, saying, "Something's wrong. When I came here before, this was just an ordinary hospital. There were not so many guards. Where did these people come from?"
"No matter where they come from, we must get past them to get into the hospital." Constantine jumped out of the car, touched his windbreaker pocket, and made sure that the props for exorcism were brought. He waved his hand and said, "Go in first. I have to see the scene first to determine the type of demon."
But at this moment, Angela turned around vigilantly, raised her gun with both hands, and pointed in a direction. There, the headlights shone on the vines, shaking out a lonely ghost. Another car drove over and found someone in front. The car stopped, and a figure walked out of the cab with a gun in his hand.
The two parties faced each other. Angela was the first to see the other party clearly. It was a woman who was dressed very capablely, but she didn't look like a police officer. When the person on the other side saw them, he raised his gun and said, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
"We are just about to ask you." Angela held the gun in one hand and took out her badge with the other hand, saying, "Metropolitan Police Department Detective, we are investigating a case, who are you?"
Unexpectedly, the other party also took out a certificate, showed it, and said, "FBI agent, Kayla, I am also investigating a case."
The two sides confirmed the authenticity of the evidence with each other, and both put away their guns. Kayla walked up, shook hands with Angela, and said: "Officer Dodgson, I've heard of your name. What are you investigating here?"
"In the previous serial murder case, witnesses revealed some information about this place, but the details are kept secret for now."
"I understand." Kayla said very straightforwardly, and then before Angela asked, she said: "One of our agents disappeared in this area. I came here to investigate. The details of what happened can only be kept secret."
Angela and Constantine looked at each other, and Angela asked: "Is the place you want to investigate in the hospital?"
"Yes, the last message sent by the agent is located in the ward of this mental hospital." Kayla nodded.
"FBI agent missing?" Constantine frowned and asked, "This should be a big deal, why not just seal this place off?"
"Confidential mission." Kayla simply answered. Angela bumped Constantine with her elbow, and then said to Kayla, "In that case, we can cooperate. We are also doing a secret operation this time, and we need to sneak in. Which floor are you going to?"
"4th or 5th floor." Kayla frowned and said.
"Great, let's go to the 4th floor too." Angela turned around and shook her head, saying, "Let's go in first."
When they came to the side door, the female agent and the female detective climbed over the wall nimbly. After a while, Angela's head popped out from the wall, looking at Constantine who was still on the other side of the wall, and said, "What are you doing? Hurry up!"
"I..." Constantine stretched out a hand, gestured up and down at the wall, then gestured horizontally at his head, and then stepped back two steps to observe the whole wall.
Angela showed a helpless expression. After a while, Keira also climbed to the top of the wall. Looking at Constantine who was reluctant to jump up, she turned to Angela and said, "Isn't this colleague you brought a little..."
"Come up quickly!" Angela said with gritted teeth. Constantine sighed helplessly, then glanced at Keira with his eyes. So Angela deliberately said, "Forget it, you just wait here and cover us."
Then, she turned to Keira and said, "Let's go, let's go in, don't count on him."
Keira glanced at Constantine, then jumped down, and Angela followed, and the two of them successfully entered the hospital.
After making sure that the two of them had completely disappeared, Constantine used teleportation to enter the wall, then cast a stealth magic on himself, swaggered through the guards, and came to the hospital.
After meeting Angela on the 4th floor, Angela said to Constantine: "The agent went to the 4th floor of another building. I will take you to my sister's ward."
After entering the ward, Constantine keenly caught a hint of blood. He wanted to stop Angela, but Angela walked straight in. She looked back at Constantine and said: "I know, do you think there is a bloody smell here? My sister committed suicide by cutting her wrists, so some blood stains remain in the ward and cannot be removed."
"My condolences." Constantine said as he began to investigate every corner of the room. Angela, who was in a sad atmosphere, also wanted to find something to do, so she also began to investigate the crime scene.
When she came here to investigate for the first time, Angela was too sad to concentrate at all. She just checked it hastily, got on the car with the body, left here, and buried her sister.
This time, she investigated again, and then she turned every corner, and then found the letter hidden under the wooden board of the closet.
The letter that was glued back was no longer sticky. When Angela found it, the envelope had fallen to the bottom of the cabinet. When Angela looked down at the bottom of the cabinet, she happened to see the envelope.
She took out the letter and froze there. After that, she opened the envelope like crazy and began to read the contents inside. Then, she covered her mouth and began to cry constantly.
Constantine noticed her abnormality, he came over and also looked at the letter, but after reading the contents, his face changed.
"Wait a minute, your sister really committed suicide, she wasn't taken away by the devil?!" Constantine raised his voice.
Angela was extremely sad, squatting on the ground and crying uncontrollably, but Constantine pulled her up with an extremely tough attitude, and then dragged her to the center of the room. Angela looked at him, and Constantine's face was very serious. He said:
"I said before that I am also one of the twins, so I know that the devil will give the twins the same curse, and then choose one of the souls to take away when they are 27 years old."
Then, he turned his head and looked at Angela and said: "But there is another situation. If the soul they choose leaves early, that is, before they reach the age of 27, they die..."
"Then, the curse on him will be transferred to his brothers and sisters, that is to say, now, you and I are the bearers of double curses."
"Then...what will happen?" Angela asked with sobs.
Without Constantine's answer, Angela saw that the walls of the whole room suddenly began to twist.
Countless shadows climbed up along the base of the wall, and the cabinets, tables, and beds all began to shake. Constantine took out a Bible from his pocket, and Angela took out a gun. The two stood back to back in the middle of the room. Constantine shouted in a low voice:
"Get ready! They are coming!!"
