Chapter 136 grotesque
"It seems that our missing person seems to have a soft spot for horror videos?"

Hearing Angela's report, Amanda and his team quickly came to the computer.

Looking at George's viewing history on YouTube, Agent Phil subconsciously said something.

Looking at the video on the computer screen, Amanda turned her head and cast a questioning look at the girlfriend of the missing person.

"George likes horror-themed works very much. He often scares me with some horror clips. Although every time I scream because I am frightened by the horror pictures in the video, he never tires of it. He has warned him more than once before. Don't scare me with this horrible video anymore, he didn't do it again afterwards."

Catching Amanda's gaze, George's girlfriend immediately replied in a low voice.

It also proves the authenticity of the browsing records on these video websites from the side.

"Very good, what kind of horror video are you watching?"

Hearing the answer from the missing man's girlfriend, Agent Phil turned his head and glanced at the horrifying screenshot of the video on the computer, and couldn't help complaining in a low voice.

"So, you're scared?"

Hearing Detective Phil's murmur, Detective Zhou immediately turned his head and looked at him expressionlessly.

"How is it possible, it's just a video."

Hearing Agent Zhou's words, Agent Phil immediately refuted, and looked at the video channel on the computer with a nonchalant expression.

"Head..."

In front of the computer, Angela glanced at Amanda behind her.

The latter crossed his hips, stared at the screenshot on the screen, frowned and looked at Spike, who nodded to her with a noncommittal attitude.

Then he turned his head and replied to Angela.

"Play the video."

Hearing Amanda's order, Angela took a deep breath, and then, under the gaze of everyone, moved the mouse and clicked on the play button of the video.

Accompanied by Angela's actions, Agent Phil's face showed an expression of facing an enemy.

On the screen, the video starts playing.

"Mary Shaw, Mary Shaw, heed my call..."

"At this very moment, appear before us and answer our call..."

The scene of the soul-calling ceremony appeared in the video.

Standing next to Amanda, Spike's drooping eye corners slightly raised when he heard the soul-calling prayer from the video, and his expression couldn't help but dignified.

At the same time, the progress bar of the video has reached the second half.

"...the puppet, the toy puppet in the candle moved!"

In the video, with Jamie's exclamation, the camera lens began to shake.

As soon as he saw it, the camera was about to focus on the fallen puppet.

Suddenly, an arm holding a teacup appeared in front of the screen and pressed the space bar on the keyboard.

The shaky video came to an abrupt end.

"it is ready."

Under everyone's surprised eyes, Spike replied softly.

"If you continue to play it, it's not just a horror video."

Understanding the meaning behind Spike's words, Amanda immediately shouted to Detective Zhou at the side.

"week."

Hearing Amanda's signal, the latter immediately nodded understandingly, turned around and said to the missing girlfriend who was still a bit dazed.

"Ma'am, I have a few more questions for you about missing George."

"However, I already know everything..."

"Please cooperate with my working lady if you want George back."

"Ok."

Looking away from the backs of Detective Zhou and the girlfriend of the missing person, Amanda looked back at Spike in front of her, and asked straightforwardly.

"So, what did you find, Spike?"

"Trouble and danger."

Facing Amanda's questioning, Spike withdrew his gaze from the computer, shook his head and said helplessly.

"Spirits are the most elusive existences in this world. They are harmless and dangerous. Under normal circumstances, they will not affect the human world, but there are always accidents in everything, such as what is done in the video now... ..."

"It's done in the video, so what did they do?"

Hearing Spike's answer, Agent Phil looked puzzled.

"Soul summoning ceremony."

Under Agent Phil's puzzled eyes, Spike opened his mouth to explain.

"A common and long-standing ritual of summoning spirits. According to legend, the original purpose of this ceremony was to look forward to the return of the spirits of dead relatives. However, with the development and changes, it gradually became a special means of summoning souls. The objects are no longer limited to the dead souls of relatives."

While speaking, Spike's eyes stayed on the title of the video for a few seconds.

"Theoretically speaking, there is very little chance that such a simple soul-calling ceremony can attract a spirit, but I don't know whether it is luck or misfortune. The group of people in the video seem to have successfully recruited a spirit through such a simple ceremony..."

"Boss, we have found out. The name of Mary Shaw in the video seems to be from a scary nursery rhyme that has been circulated on the Internet recently."

Listening to Spike's introduction to the spiritual summoning ceremony, Angela's face flashed a thoughtful expression.

She clicked on the computer and entered the name of 'Mary Xiao', and soon the scary nursery rhymes related to Mary Xiao appeared in the search interface.

"Beware of the stare from Mary Shaw; she has no children, only dolls; if you see her puppet, don't scream; otherwise she'll come to your head with the puppet..."

Click on one of the websites, and soon the complete nursery rhyme lyrics appeared in front of everyone.

Taking a fancy to the nursery rhyme lyrics on the website, Agent Fil subconsciously recited a few lines.

Feeling the penetrating feeling in this horror nursery rhyme, I stopped immediately.

"You mean to say that George and the previous cases of disappearance are related to the successful evocation ceremony in the video?"

"Like I said, spirits are both harmless and dangerous."

"Harmless because the spirit world they live in does not intersect with the reality we live in. Instead, they are like two sides of the same coin. Spirits cannot touch reality, and real people cannot easily enter the world of spirits."

"However, in this world, there are always exceptions. For various reasons, spirits enter the real world. They are either because of an unintentional action, or they are simply called by someone with a heart through a ceremony. In short, once The spirit comes down to reality and finds support, then it becomes the grotesque."

"weird?"

Hear Spike's introduction to spirits and grotesques.

Subconsciously, everything that happened in Texas appeared in Amanda's mind.

Finally, is the existence carried by the wolf girl the grotesque that Spike said?
