There is always a crossing that suits you

"Father Hanishi, hello. I am John Constantine, and this is my partner Midnight. We are exorcists." Qiao Mu said to the young man in black in front of him.After all, Qiao Mu was a salesman, and with his natural affinity, it is easy to get people's favor.Especially in this psychic world, his bright and warm soul is as attractive to psychics as X medicine.

"I know." The young man looked about the same age as Qiao Mu, slightly fat, but he looked very energetic. "The telepathy between that stupid psychic."

"We are very sorry about your sister. But since you are also a psychic, you should feel it, right? This is a devil's provocation." Midnight handed the information bag to the young man, "We need cooperation, this is our sincerity .”

Hannessy took the file bag, opened it to look, and finally got out of the way to let the two of Qiao Mu enter the room.

"The demons in New York are getting more and more arrogant now." Qiao Mu and Midnight were sitting on the sofa, Hannessy placed the documents in the file bag on the coffee table one by one, pointing to some of the photos of the victims and said.

The girls in it all lost part of their bodies, and the murderer's methods were cruel and exquisite, and the incisions were handled skillfully and skillfully.

"My ability is a medium, and I can communicate with the world of Yin and Yang through various data media." Hannessy said, "If it weren't for the fact that my power is purely auxiliary, without the slightest attack power, I would have killed that bastard with my own hands! Lily is a good girl, I failed to protect her."

"That's why we got together. We will definitely find the murderer and send him to hell." Qiao Mu patted Han Nixi on the shoulder to comfort him.

"Not to hell." Midnight said, "We now have a priest! His power can completely save those half-breeds."

"Yes, but the demon must be very weak." Hannessy nodded. "It must be at the moment when you are weak enough to go back to hell to recuperate but you haven't been able to open the gates of hell."

"Leave it to us." Qiao Mu said that he knows nothing but fighting, "Midnight and I are responsible for the attack, we will restrain it, and you will take the opportunity to launch it."

"That would be great." Hannessy smiled for the first time in a few days, "We must make that guy disappear."

"The problem now is how we can find that demon." Qiao Mu put forward his opinion. "I compared the photos of these dead people with their bodies, and found that what they lack is the most beautiful part of their bodies."

Qiao Mu arranged the photos on the coffee table, put together the photos of each deceased before and after death, and directed the two of them to look at them.

"This devil may have a collection habit. And every girl is between 16 and [-] years old. They are all beautiful. It is not the beauty of the appearance, but the shapely beauty of the body."

"I'm a painting lover. If those girls don't die, they can all be qualified to be my most satisfying models."

"Take a beautiful girl as a trophy? Chop Suey!" Hannessy gritted his teeth.

"No, it's part of the beautiful girl." The witch doctor corrected seriously.

"..." [You might as well not say it. 】

"I checked your sister's memory, and at the end of her memory is a screen of snowflakes. But the last recognizable part before the snowflakes is a phone call with you. Didn't you find anything unusual?" Qiao Mu asked, "And the psychic Shouldn’t the psychic feel if someone close to the person encounters misfortune?”

"She is the adopted daughter of my parents. I did feel that something bad was going to happen that day, but it was not very clear. And I was very busy those days. I just took over the parish, and there were so many things that I couldn't finish."

Qiao Mu nodded, "Then try to feel it, isn't your power a 'medium'?"

"No problem." Hannessy flattened the paper documents on the coffee table.

He stretched out his hands and lightly tapped a photo with his fingertips.His eyeballs gradually faded, leaving only the whites of his eyes, and then his hands moved rapidly on the coffee table.

"No, no, no..."

The piece of paper quickly passed by his hand, and Qiao Mu could feel an unspeakable aura in the space around the other party, which was indescribable, as if it could penetrate the fluctuations of blood.

"this!"

The fluctuation dissipated, and Hannessy's pupils returned to normal.

Qiao Mu and Midnight leaned over together.Strangely, what Hanishi was holding was not the bloody photos, nor the family background information of the victim, but an entertainment newspaper that Qiao Mu bought from the newsstand just downstairs!

"How can there be such a thing?" Midnight frowned and asked his partner.

"This... was intended to be turned over, and it can be used as a table pad..." Qiao Mu would not say that it was because he saw the news about "Brad Pitt" on the headline!

"Whatever the reason, what did you find?" Without listening to his partner's nonsense, Midnight asked Hanishi directly.

"Here." He pointed to the small square in the gap.

『The pure and lovely female singer-Shirley Watt was brutally betrayed by her boyfriend, who cheated on her best friend for many years. 』

"I always feel that this stalk is very flawed~" Qiao Mu sighed.

"I saw the girl's death in the future," Hannessy said. "The murderer's weapon was not iron but his dirty claws. I saw a sharp claw reaching for the girl."

"Then what are you waiting for, gentlemen." The witch doctor put the information into the bag, "Let's act quickly! Time waits for no one!"

----------------

"Shirley Watt, 17 years old, was the No.10 of American Idol last year. Because her appearance is pure and sweet, and her personality is not special, she has been tepid after the game. She is not even a second-rate star." Qiao Mu in the car He opened his laptop and read out the information he had just found, "Her boyfriend, Victor Smith, comes from a typical middle-class family. His father is a lawyer and his mother is a high school teacher. They are quite famous in the local area. The two are junior high school classmates. The two later went to the same high school, and they were considered childhood sweethearts. His parents were originally in favor of the two young people getting together, but since Shirley entered the entertainment industry, they have opposed it."

"As for that best friend, she is a high school classmate of the two, named Emily Carter, an orphan."

"Sounds like a simple high school romance." Qiao Mu finally concluded.

"The problem now is that he's out of the scope of a normal school romance. After all, there won't be demon killing plots in Xiaoqing's school romance." Midnight turned a corner and said.

"It's obvious, buddy." Qiao Mu shrugged and asked Hannessy, who was sitting in the back seat, "Have you ever been to the place where your sister was found dead?"

"Yes, but I didn't find anything more than the police." The man frowned, "There was nothing there except a faint sulfur smell, which made me sure it was a demon."

"Did the police smell it?" Qiao Mu asked.

"Probably not. The sulfur smell on the demon's body is difficult for ordinary people to detect except the psychic."

"Okay, we're here." The witch doctor interrupted Qiao Mu's nagging, and after showing the ID issued by the police chief, he entered the community smoothly and parked the car in the parking space.

"The law and order in this community is very average." Qiao Mu thought of the security guard who only glanced at the certificate and let him go without checking.

"It's not a high-end community here. Most of them are single apartments, which are barely medium." Midnight sniffed.

"Let's act quickly." Hannessy didn't want to discuss the grade of the community with the two, he just wanted to find the murderer quickly.

Qiao Mu thought about the basement of his own house, and immediately didn't want to talk anymore, although he wondered where Midnight's sense of superiority about the house came from.This is a single apartment after all, with a balcony, a kitchen, and a bathroom, and they still live in the basement...

"Ding dong~~"

"Hello, who is it?" The young female voice sounded very sweet.

"Is that Miss Watt? We are detectives from the New York Police Department." Qiao Mu's voice was gentle.

"I am, what's the matter?" The female voice revealed the owner's vigilance.

"There is something that requires your cooperation in the investigation."

"...I want to see your documents."

"No problem." Qiao Mu took out his ID card, "You can search online, I belong to the special office, and my number is there."

"Give me five minutes."

2 minutes later……

"There seems to be only the ID code but no photos." The girl's voice was full of hesitation, as if hesitating whether to believe it or not.

"Yes, there are no pictures of the people in the special office attached, but you should be able to see that if you don't enter my code, you won't find anything about the office on the web. Our code It is confidential, and it will be updated in real time every time the task is completed, and the coding is the best proof”

"...Okay" the girl was persuaded, and only heard a "ding", and the door was unlocked.

"Go on... ah!!!!!!"

"Miss Watt?! Miss Watt!!" Hannessy shouted anxiously, but there was only a busy tone from the intercom.

"Quick! Let's go up!" Midnight ran up first, followed by Qiao Mu.

Shirley Watt's apartment was on the seventeenth floor, but neither Arbor nor Hanesy mentioned the elevator.Although human life is at stake, knowing that the culprit is a demon, they would not choose that unsafe path no matter what.

Fortunately, the three of them are not ordinary people, even climbing up the seventeenth floor is not slow.

But it takes less than 2 minutes to reach the destination.The door was half-closed, and there was a faint smell of sulfur in the air. Qiao Mu put on his gloves and gently pushed open the anti-theft door.A girl's body appeared in front of her eyes.

"Damn it!" Qiao Mu was sure in an instant that the murderer had left, and there was no high-energy fluctuation in the room. "That guy ran away."

"Shit!" It's a shame to let a demon kill people right under your nose, let alone let it escape? !

"The murderer doesn't seem to have taken any spoils this time, is it because time is too tight?" Hannessy asked while looking at the girl on the ground.

"No, it took it." Qiao Mu squatted down and opened the mouth of the girl who had just died, revealing the bare tooth sockets inside, "It took the teeth."

"What a pervert!"

"Come and feel it while the person is still dead and the soul is still there." Midnight reminded Qiao Mu.

"Okay." Qiao Mu was also unambiguous, and immediately opened his yin and yang eyes to the maximum, and felt an unspeakable feeling of being wrapped in jelly.After a while, scenes of the girl's life began to appear.Scenes flashed, and finally it was fixed on the huge sharp claws, the blue-glowing scales, and the ugly veins.

"Here!" Qiao Mu opened his eyes, and went to the corner of the sofa to search for something before the memory faded.

"This!" Qiao Mu spread out his hand, it was a piece of horny horn like a tiny insect's wing, like a wing but not entirely.Thumb and index finger intersect, gently pinch, bring up the finely divided phosphor powder.
