[Comprehensive British and American] Almighty Witch

Although Adeline was a little surprised that the Wen family brothers came to visit on Christmas Eve, it was not too unexpected. She saw the slightly obsequious smiles of the two brothers, and she couldn't help laughing, and then let it be The two of them were invited to the Christmas dinner without hesitation, and the Wen family brothers naturally happily agreed.

Then Adeline continued to go into the kitchen to prepare, and the Wen brothers played with Lilith, who was only as tall as their knees. He was not afraid that the Wen family brothers would notice her abnormality.

Soon, Josh, Luo Luke and his son also appeared in formal attire. When they saw that it was the Wen family brothers who opened the door, they were naturally overjoyed after being surprised.After entering the house, the four men chatted together very quickly. It was rare for Lilith to see so many people appearing in the family. Except for Grandpa Luo Luke, who was very good to her, all of them were handsome guys. She couldn't help being a little excited, Ed Lynn could hear her amused giggles in the kitchen.

At nearly seven o'clock in the evening, the meal was officially opened. Adeline and Josh looked out while setting the table. Josh saw her and asked her, "Are you waiting for Constantine?"

"Well, didn't he say before that he would visit us during Christmas? I think it should be today." Adeline didn't have any special feelings for Constantine, but she knew that Constantine's hand There are a lot of good things, and she is going to take him to find that mysterious person. After all, the more powerful people on your side, the better. From Man Shu and Zhenzhen, you can know that that mysterious person has a lot of talents. Helper's.

"Oh Adeline, do you think we want to invite him to join us in our cooperation with the Wen brothers?" When they were chatting in the living room before, Dean and Sam had already asked Josh for cooperation, but At that time, Adeline was still busy in the kitchen, and they didn't talk about it in detail, so Josh was able to say "cooperation" with certainty at this time.

Adeline smiled back and said, "That's exactly what I mean. However, I feel that Constantine is not as easy to deal with as the Wen family brothers. If he doesn't pay a price, I'm afraid he will be too lazy to do it."

Josh thought about Constantine's every move in the Kangchamei Hotel before, and found that the man was really a little uninhibited, so he nodded in agreement and said: "Indeed, but even if he doesn't want to go with us, You can also exchange some good things with him, he has a lot of treasures."

As soon as Josh finished speaking, the knock on the door rang again.Josh and Adeline looked at each other, thinking in their hearts: Constantine must be here this time.

This time it was Adeline who opened the door, and Lilith seemed to be running to open it, but she had already been put in the child seat by her mother at this time, and she couldn't get off the ground without mana.

As soon as the door opened, what Adeline recognized was the back of a tall man. This back was not Constantine's, but Sheriff Burke Hansen, an old friend of her and Josh's father and son.

"Hey Adeline, I came to visit you suddenly today, didn't I disturb you?" Burke turned around when he heard the door opening and saw Adeline, and immediately greeted her with a smile.

Adeline hurriedly invited him into the house. Burke walked into the living room and saw that the four men and a cute baby girl on the long dining table were all looking at him. They were taken aback for a moment, and then immediately greeted them with a smile.

Josh even stood up and brought Burke to sit beside him. By the time Adeline sat down beside Lilith, several people at the table had already introduced each other, and they all knew each other.

"Burke, why didn't you notify in advance when you came back? Fortunately, Adeline prepared enough ingredients, otherwise you would be hungry." Josh and Burke were the most familiar, and their words seemed the most casual.

Burke explained with a smile: "I followed the criminal psychology team to a nearby city to handle the case. I thought it was a few days before the case was closed, so I didn't contact you; but who knew that I suddenly found strong evidence, and the murderer was arrested last night. He was arrested and brought to justice. The team leader announced a three-day holiday as soon as he went to work this morning, and I immediately came back."

"What case? Are you a policeman?" Dean himself had pretended to be a policeman several times. He didn't feel embarrassed at this time, but he felt a little like a colleague to Burke.

Burke shared his recent case with several people at the dinner table. The case is now closed, and a press conference will be announced after the finishing work is completed, so there is no need for Burke to hide it.As a result, as soon as he said that several people present had seen the report of this case from the TV news, they immediately became interested. Sam also suggested that Burke should not name the murderer in advance and let them guess.

Adeline stopped aside for a while and looked at the clock on the wall. The pointer was pointing to seven o'clock. She was just about to speak to announce the opening of the meal when the doorbell rang again.

"Oh, it must be Constantine this time, right?"

"Anyone else coming?"

"Hey, Adeline, your house is still buzzing."

Adeline opened the door amidst the chatter and saw that it was indeed Constantine. Not only was he, even the clothes he was wearing were still the ones he wore in the Kangchamei Hotel, but they looked so clean. many.

Just as Constantine was about to say a few words of greeting, Adeline pulled him into the room and said, "Come in quickly, I'll wait for you to come and start the meal."

After Constantine was seated, the dinner party was finally full, and Adeline didn't hesitate, and immediately announced the opening of the meal, and everyone happily ate and drank.

Except for Adeline and her daughter, all the people present here are men. Since their mother passed away in a strange way, the Wen family brothers basically haven't celebrated Christmas normally; Josh is similar. The relationship between father and son has dropped to freezing point again when they grow up, and they seldom eat together at the same table on weekdays, let alone eat Christmas dinner; We live in a family, so this bustling Christmas Eve dinner has touched everyone's heart differently from previous years.

After drinking and eating, Lilith rushed to the Christmas tree to unwrap presents. There were outsiders in the house, so she couldn't use her power to help. Such a large pile of presents was enough for her to unwrap all night.The adults all sat on the sofa in front of the TV, drinking tea and chatting.

Soon, several people brought up the topic of finding the mysterious figure.

"Mysterious person, who is that?" Burke was the most ignorant person here, and Josh hurriedly explained to him in a low voice.

Constantine, who thought he didn't know anything, asked the Wen family brothers in surprise, "The mysterious person you're talking about isn't the one who sold the 'teleportation array' to the vampires, right?"

"'Teleportation array'? What is that?" This was the voice of the Wen family brothers.

"You also know that person?" This is the question of Rohreck.

"How did you know that mysterious person had a deal with the vampire family?" These were Josh's curious words.

Seeing that the information of the people present was clearly out of sync, Constantine glanced sideways at Adeline, and then slowly said: "It seems that everyone has a lot of information that no one else knows, um, then Let's start with me, let me tell you about the mysterious person I know first, and you can add later."

Everyone else nodded in agreement, and Constantine continued to speak. It turned out that after he and Adeline separated outside the Conchamei Hotel, he began to investigate the history of the vampire clan in Boyard City on purpose, and found that it was probably in More than 30 years ago, that hotel—then it was also called Kangchamei Hotel, but the scale was not as large as it is now—had a kidnapping case by robbers. According to the hostage data, there were 232 people, and only 53 people survived. That is to say, at least 179 hostages were killed in that incident.However, because the hijacking case had too much bad influence on the city of Poyard, which is famous for its tourism, the local government forcibly suppressed the whole thing.

More than 30 years ago, the information was not transmitted as quickly as it is now. In addition, although the government suppressed the whole incident, the robbers were shot immediately after being captured and brought to justice. The families of the victims also paid a huge amount of money. down.

"It is said that the bodies of those victims were collectively disposed of by the local government. After the family members received satisfactory compensation, they only took away the cremated ashes." He glanced at the other people who were watching, and then continued: "I think the last process must have been tampered with by the vampire clan."

At this time, the Wen family brothers and Burke were also told by Josh that he and Adeline had eavesdropped on the content of the "Captive Breeding Plan" from the vampire nobles, so when Constantine said this, the expressions of the few people became bad stand up.

"30 years ago?" Luo Luke silently read the time, and then asked strangely, "Do you think this time point was accidental or deliberately chosen?"

Burke has the richest reasoning experience. After thinking for a while, he asked Constantine, "Is the information you checked true? What is the age distribution of the 179 people who were declared dead?"

The Wen family brothers and Josh understood Burke's question as soon as they heard what he said. Their eyes immediately turned to Constantine. They didn't know where Constantine obtained the information. Tilting his head and frowning for a while, he really remembered some relevant content, and replied: "Most of the people staying in the hotel are young and middle-aged people who come for tourism or business trips. There are also old people and children, but the proportion Smaller; but the dozens of people who died did not report their ages, but it is certain that none of them were children. Oh, by the way, my sources of information are absolutely true, so you can rest assured."

As soon as he said this, Burke felt that his thoughts became clearer. He sat on the sofa and moved forward, looked at the other people who looked at him and said, "Do you think the whole thing is like this?" To put it bluntly, the vampire family's "captive breeding plan" is to secretly raise humans in captivity for them to drink blood; but the disappearance of too many people in modern civilized society will eventually arouse human vigilance, so the vampire family bought After the magical "teleportation array" you mentioned, they came up with such an idea. They first planned a large-scale hijacking case, and then created the illusion that a large number of hostages were killed. In fact, those hostages had long been killed by vampires. They smuggled it away from the 'teleportation array'. And the so-called ashes returned to the family by the government, I guess they are all fake, or the ashes of someone I don't know."

"Is this really okay?" Josh still couldn't believe it. "What will happen when the family members come to identify the corpse?"

"It's not difficult," Luo Luke said. "There are many things that can put people into a state of suspended animation. The key is that when they were cremated, they dropped bags in such a large number. Did no one notice?"

Burke frowned and thought for a while and said: "If the vampire clan in Boyard City has infiltrated into the local government, then it is not difficult; in addition, there are already corpses, and it is too late for the family members to be sad, so there will be notice. many."

The Wen family brothers and Josh nodded when they heard this, so it seems that the 200 people back then were really likely to be secretly raised by the vampire clan.

"In more than 30 years, the age of the people who were looted back then must be getting older. Although the vampire clan must have used other means to loot many people over the years, but after all, that incident gave them a taste of the sweetness, so ..."

"So they want to do it again, right?" Josh said angrily. He couldn't imagine what kind of life the nearly 200 people who were looted back then lived.

"It seems that we underestimated those villains who couldn't see the sun before, and we must not meet them in the future." Dean said sternly to Sam, and Sam nodded.

The characteristic of vampires feeding on human blood is destined to be a sworn enemy relationship between the two.

"According to what you're saying, that mysterious person had already made a deal with the vampire family at least 30 years ago? Then he should be quite old." Adeline brought back the somewhat off topic. On the body of the mysterious person, after all, vampires have not existed in this world for a day or two. They already have their own rules of conduct in that world. As long as they are not directly hostile to humans, Adeline feels that they are more threatening than that mysterious person. The figures are much smaller, who knows who is standing behind that mysterious figure?Or, what is it?

Constantine nodded and answered her: "Yes, I guess he should have trained a large number of subordinates, and his subordinates run errands for him when doing business with these supernatural races."

"Yes, I mentioned to Adeline before that the person who wanted to do business with the old patriarch of the elk clan was not him himself, but the two weasel spirits, Manshu and Zhenzhen." Dean continued Constantine's words Said.

After hearing this, Josh immediately asked him, "Did you catch those two weasel spirits in the end?"

Sam nodded and said: "Caught it, when we found the parking lot that Adeline said, the two of them were still unconscious? Dean and I tied them up and threw them in our in the car, and then drove straight back to Wyoming to find the Elk Patriarch."

"Yes, the patriarch said that after meeting the two of them, if you can't ask anything, you can just bring them back to him. He has a way to make him speak." Dean added.

At this time, Josh whispered the story of the elk family to Burke again, and Adeline asked the Wen family brothers with some interest: "Did they wake up later? How are their minds?"

"Well, they didn't wake up until Wyoming. Their reactions were a little slow, but their minds were still clear." Dean explained for Adeline, and Adeline asked: "Then they mentioned that they had a relationship with them back then?" When the old patriarch talked secretly, did they want anything from the elk clan?"

"That's not true. They seem to have completely forgotten what happened during that time, but the Elk Patriarch himself thought about it seriously. He said that there were really no treasures in their clan at that time. They were poor and white, except There are many people."

Lots of people!

This word made Adeline's mind flash. She seemed to have caught something, but she didn't fully realize it, and her brows furrowed unconsciously.

There are many people in the elk clan, and there are also many people in the vampire clan. Is there any connection between the two?

"However, the head of the Elk Clan has already proposed to Manshu and Zhenzhen that he wants to trade the 'gold and silver antlers'." lost. "

When Constantine heard this, he looked up at the two brothers of the Wen family, then at Adeline, and finally asked both of them in doubt, "You guys, do you want to find that mysterious person? Why?"

The Wen family brothers and Adeline who had been named by him glanced at each other, then nodded in unison.Sam was the first to speak, and he said: "Actually, there is no purpose, but the remuneration paid by the elk patriarch is quite high, and this matter is also within the scope of our work as a demon hunter, so let's take it."

Only then did Burke look sideways at the two brothers of the Wen family with a look of surprise, and sighed, "You two are demon hunters?"

Then he glanced at Adeline belatedly, thinking: She is a witch.In the end, they skipped over Josh and Rollek, the father and son of Green, and finally set their eyes on Constantine, and asked him, "Excuse me, what is your occupation?"

Constantine shrugged and said back to him: "Where is there any fixed occupation? I can do everything. Strictly speaking, what I do overlaps with what they are doing." He said, Constantine pointed to Green, witches and witchers sitting beside him.

"Oh, so I'm the only ordinary person here?" Burke held his forehead and exclaimed exaggeratedly, but unfortunately no one paid him any attention.Josh, who was sitting next to him, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, with an expression of "we won't dislike you", which in Burke's view was very indecent.

Adeline followed Sam's words and continued: "My reason is similar to that of Dean and Sam, let's just treat it as a business deal. And I'm really curious about who that mysterious person is, because, um, why? Speaking of which, the 'Teleportation Formation' he sold to the vampire family has something to do with my, um, family bar, so..."

Constantine nodded knowingly. He thought for a while and said, "Then let's get straight to the point. If you want to invite me to participate, what benefits will you give me?"

What kind of promise Dean and Sam got from the elk patriarch, others don't know, but judging from the conditions they offered to Adeline and Josh, it must be quite rich, so it can be seen that whether it is among humans or in The elk family, which is not very eye-catching in the Weisen world, has been passed down for hundreds of years and is still quite rich.

So Sam, who temporarily became the spokesperson of the elk family, asked Constantine for his mobile phone number, and then secretly sent him a text message. Constantine looked down at the content of the message and locked the phone. He seemed to be in a good mood and nodded to Sam, then waved to Adeline, Josh, and Dean and said hello again: "Hey everyone, I will hang out with you as soon as the New Year is over."

After the cooperation was reached, several people began to discuss the action plan. There were only five adults and one baby girl participating in this operation to find the mysterious person. That's right, they were brothers Josh, Dean and Sam, and Kang Standing and Adeline, and Lilith.After all, Luo Luke was old and his legs and feet were not very agile, so he stayed to take care of the shop.

The ultimate goal of Adeline's participation in this operation was to solve Lilith's troubles, so although the Wen brothers didn't agree, she still insisted on bringing her daughter with her.

The departure time has also been set, which is on the first day of the new year.

Burke sat on the sidelines and didn't participate until they finished all the discussions. He said that during the time when Josh and Adeline were away from home, he would definitely come to help Rowler often, and he also I will say hello to the former colleagues of the police station in the town and ask them to take care of Adeline and Josh's shop more.

After that, several people dispersed separately.Luo Luke and his son naturally returned to the house next door, but the others didn't seem to intend to stay in Andrew Town to wait for the departure, but drove away by themselves.

It was not until the day before that Adeline's mother and daughter and Josh boarded the plane to Germany in light packs, and met at the German capital airport as they had agreed before.
