Chapter 457 The Story Behind

"Candy man?"

Washington, BSI headquarters.

Through the clues that Spike got at the home of the victim Natalie, Amanda and others quickly found out the result of the investigation.

"This is a very small urban legend..."

While handing over the results of the investigation to Amanda, Angela said.

"It is said that as long as someone silently says the name of the candy man five times in front of the mirror, it will come out of the mirror and kill him."

Opening the file given by Angela, there are not many urban legends about the candy man. It only records some information about the appearance of the candy man, and the emphasis is on the wrist connected by the iron hook of the candy man.

"According to legend, the candy man wore a brown fur coat, a white bow tie around his neck, gray trousers and a pair of polished leather shoes all year round. His right hand was replaced by a bloody hook on which there was a The blood of the victim remains, but there is no skin under the windbreaker it wears, the ribs are directly exposed, and the chest cavity is full of bee nests..."

"bee?"

Hearing Angela's mention of the appearance under the candy man's coat, Amanda frowned, but she remembered the candies in the mouths of those victims.

If she remembered correctly, the candies seemed to be made of honey.

"So, the murderer who caused the series of deaths in Washington is this so-called candy man?"

After closing the file in her hand, Amanda turned her head and glanced at Spike, and asked.

"Before, because of the existence of masks and corpses, we mistakenly thought that the incidents caused by the homeless man were related to objects, but obviously, the curse can also achieve a similar effect. The other party told Nata the legend about the candy man Li, with Natalie's death, the legend of the Candy Man spread again, and it will also wander the world with death..."

Meeting Amanda's eyes, Spike immediately opened his mouth to answer.

With that said, Spike got up and came to Amanda, reached out to take the file in her hand, and added.

"In addition, about the legend of the candy man, there is another most important point that has not been recorded here."

"Impossible, I have collected all the information related to Candy Man."

Hearing Spike's words, Angela on the side reacted immediately.

In order to collect information related to the candy man, she spent a lot of effort. After all, most of these small urban legends are only spread on the streets, and there are no official records. That's a lot.

"The spread of any urban legend is especially contextual, and the same is true for legends like Candy Man."

Not in a hurry to refute Angela, Spike just looked down at the documents in his hand, and said in a recalling tone.

"It was mentioned in the legend that the right hand of the candy man was replaced by a bloody iron hook, while its body was occupied by a dense honeycomb. Naturally, such a specific image cannot be fabricated out of thin air."

"what do you mean?"

Hearing Spike's words, Amanda showed a puzzled expression on her face.

"Do you still remember the poignant love story about the painter Daniel Robitelle that we heard at the National Gallery of Art exhibition?"

Faced with Amanda's doubts, Spike in front of him suddenly changed the subject and asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

"You mean?!"

However, as a BSI agent, Amanda naturally wouldn't think that Spike was talking about Daniel Robinette casually.

Therefore, after thinking for a while, she quickly reacted.

"Yes."

Nodded, under Amanda's gaze.

Spike said slowly: "About the story of Daniel Robitelle, there is not much problem with what the organizer said, but the only thing he ignored was the process of Daniel Robitelle's brutal murder. Angry The people hired by the rich man cut off the painter's right hand with a rusty saw, leaving dense wounds on his body and covering it with honey. Because of this torture, the nearby witnesses Children of the process dubbed Daniel Robitelle 'Candyman'."

"This is Candyman, the original source."

Although it was just a description, through everything Spike told, Amanda could still vaguely feel the despair that arose when Daniel Robitale was killed.

And it was these despair and pains that made Daniel Robitale turn into a candy man after his death, with an iron hook installed on his right hand that was sawed off by a saw, and his body covered with honey turned into a dense honeycomb.If all this is just like this, then it is just an urban legend about the evolution of tragic love stories in the last century.

However, by chance, the behavior of the homeless man turned the candy man, who originally only existed in urban legends, into reality.

It became a ghost driven by anger and hatred, awakened by the spell that the tramp cast on Natalie, and wandered in Washington.

On this piece of land where it was once executed, people who called its name were constantly being killed.

"I don't know."

After listening to Spike's story about Daniel Robitale or Candyman, Angela took a deep breath, and then spoke.

"If the candy man kills all those who have summoned him, then how does it survive?"

Facing Angela's doubts, Spike was silent for a moment before opening his mouth to explain.

"In the past, the legend of the candy man or just the legend."

"However, what the tramp has done has awakened his true incarnation as an evil spirit. The longer people discuss the candy man, the more they fear him, and the candy man will continue to wander. The legend will become the sustenance of the candy man in reality, as long as the legend exists, the candy man will never disappear."

Speaking of this, even Spike couldn't help but become a bit more dignified.

The legend of the candy man has begun to spread with the appearance of the victims, and even Angela can find the legend about it through collecting information.

From this, it can be imagined that it is almost impossible to eliminate or stop the candy man's actions.

Unless, BSI can find a way to completely block and eliminate the legend about Candy Man.

However, compared to the existence of Candy Man.

What makes Spike feel even more heavy is the homeless man behind the story. He keeps spreading various items or curses, and there is definitely a purpose.

　Thanks for the reward of 100 starting coins for thinking, consciousness and memory.
