Sean opened the door suddenly: "Aaliyah!"
A look of disbelief appeared on Aaliyah's pale face: "You are really here..."
"Come in!" Even at this moment, Sean did not relax his vigilance. He helped Aaliyah into the room and quickly closed the door. The spiritual essence spread, paying attention to the situation in the building, "How did you escape?"
Sean noticed that Aaliyah’s hands were cold and greasy. He turned on the light in the living room and found Aaliyah's hands covered in blood.
If you look carefully, you can see that there are two penetrating wounds on her palms, and the blood that cannot coagulate is still flowing slowly.
"Did they do this?" Sean wrapped Aaliyah's hands in the elixir mist.
Aaliyah's body temperature dropped very quickly. After seeing Sean, she couldn't even stay standing and slipped and sat on the ground.
Only then did Sean realize that Aaliyah had more than two wounds on her body.
She was barefoot, and there were horrific wounds on both insteps.
"These beasts!" Sean roared, tightened all the ectoplasm, and used the elixir mist to treat Aaliyah with all his strength.
But my sister's wounds showed no signs of improvement. Her blood and body temperature were still draining rapidly.
Aaliyah huddled in Sean's arms, her long hair messy: "It's useless..."
"They told me that if I ran away, the holy wound would not heal and I would die... It seems that what they said was true."
Aaliyah's lips were so pale that they were the same color as her face, and the blood spots on her face looked particularly bright red: "Sean, I knew you would come to me...you fool..."
Sean was thinking hard about what to do, but he had no other choice but to drain all the spiritual power in his body to try to heal the so-called "holy wound."
Aaliyah's eyes began to lose focus: "Go home, Sean. Take care of yourself and your father - his heart has been broken since his mother left, and his father is very pitiful...
"You are pitiful, too, Sean." Aaliyah stroked Sean's cheek. Her eyes became more and more distracted, as if she could see things in the distance through Sean, "It's so cold. Winter is coming. , I have to knit sweaters for you quickly. Remember to buy wool when you go to the city tomorrow...
"Daddy wants the black one, and you want the blue and white one."
Sean's mouth opened, but he didn't know what to say.
"Brother, why did you turn off the light? I haven't finished speaking yet..." Aaliyah scolded with a smile, her eyes narrowed, her soul was passing away.
Sean opened his eyes suddenly. He was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling of his bedroom.
The tears fell cold on the pillow, but they were still warm on the temples.
The sun hid behind the curtains, as if it didn't dare to disturb his sleep.
He stood up, rushed to the living room, and looked at the ground where Aaliyah lay - there was nothing there, no body, and no blood.
"Oh my God..." Sean took two steps back and sat down on the chair.
He had never felt so lucky that a dream was a dream.
He held his forehead: "This damn dream is too real - shit!" He cursed, venting his unnecessary emotions.
After waiting for a long time, I was finally able to seriously analyze the cause of the dream: “Ever since I found out that the person who kidnapped Aaliyah was Judas Ring, I was too anxious, which is why I had such a dream.
"On the other hand, my subconscious is also urging me to continue investigating..."
Sean took out the Explorer playing cards, split the words in his mind, translated them into codes, and injected spiritual power into them rhythmically.
The related playing cards will emit the same vibration, and the other party can transmit the message as long as they translate the spiritual vibration into letters.
However, the special effect of the Explorer Poker Card has a limited distance and cannot exceed twenty kilometers.

Sean once again came to the "Haileywood Textile and Garment Factory" where the witch's body was found before, and where there had been a fire.
This time he did not plan to go in through the main entrance, but walked to the alley of the building next to the old textile factory site and put on the mask of "Unknown Sea" in a deserted place.
There was a steel fire escape on the side of the old building, but the bottom ladder was not lowered, so Sean could not climb up directly with his bare hands.
After confirming that no one was around, Sean wrapped his ectoplasm tentacles around the fire escape about four meters above the ground. With the help of the force of jumping up, the ectoplasm tightened at the same time, just like using ectoplasm to do pull-ups. Climbed the fire stairs.
From a non-spiritual perspective, Sean had just completed a high jump that was far beyond ordinary people.
After climbing up the fire escape to the roof, Sean saw the back of a man wearing jeans and a work jacket, staring blankly into the distance.
"New dressing style." Before, Yueguang would choose a shirt, suit or windbreaker to go out.
At this time, he was wearing work clothes, and his back looked a little funny and helpless. Sean is wearing a brown windbreaker, which looks much more high-end than Moonlight in terms of demeanor and appearance.
Moonlight turned around, looked up and down Sean's outfit, and sighed: "Winnie said that you can only wear this kind of... stain-resistant clothes when going on missions in the future."
Sean suppressed his smile: "It doesn't matter, since you are wearing a mask now, others can't recognize you as the 'Ocean Pianist'."
Moonlight could hear Sean's pride, his eyes under the mask narrowed, and he took out a cigarette with a slightly exaggerated movement.
Click, click. Sean's arm seemed to be not his own, driven by the "willful" lighter, sending the newly lit flame under the smoke.
Yueguang raised her eyebrows happily: "Oh, a gentleman dressed in a fashionable style actually lit a cigarette for me, a worker boy. It's really flattering..."
Sean took back the lighter bitterly, already regretting not exchanging this unfortunate thing for fifty New Zealand dollars.
In order to prevent Sean from getting another chance to win back the victory, Moonlight brought the topic to the right track: "The address of the mission should be the house next door that suffered a fire, right? It's the Haleywood Textile Factory you mentioned to me? "
Sean nodded: "That's right. I found the corpses of witches here before. But at that time, I noticed that the lingering thoughts here, their symbol was covered with their mouths - this symbol means that they have something to say. .
"There is currently no clear direction of investigation for the Judas Ring information, so I decided to find out what happened at the Haleywood Textile Factory. Maybe I can find clues about the Judas Ring, or clues related to Aaliyah's whereabouts."
Moonlight made a fist and pinched her knuckles: "It looks much brighter here than Levin underground...
"What happened last time was not a good thing - after encountering King-level trouble, I don't feel nervous anymore wherever I go."
Sean thought of Yueguang's heartless performance before, and wondered in his heart: Have you really been nervous?
The two jumped directly from the rooftop to the top of the old textile factory site, opened a door that had been sealed for a long time, and approached the interior of the building.
Although Sean just complained about the lack of tension in Moonlight, he also discovered that he had grown in mental strength - he clearly remembered the first time he walked in the old fire site, looking at the sunlight coming in from the window, illuminating When I saw the dark and dilapidated abandoned factory, I felt a clear sense of fear in my heart.
But at this moment, he was under the mask of the unknown sea. Although he was still vigilant, it could hardly be called "fear".
Sean and Moonlight have different perceptions: "Without fear, you won't be blinded by fear..."
Go down the stairs from the top floor and reach the third floor again. Sean stood at the place where he saw the vision before and said to the moonlight: "I try to communicate with them. If there is anything abnormal, you can wake me up with the sound of the piano."
After saying that, Sean closed his eyes and devoted his attention to the divine roots. The spiritual essence that was much richer than last time spread out.
The flames from many years ago began to burn again. The thirty-three female workers without mouths stood quietly in the flames, with tears in their eyes, silently protesting this inhumane tragedy.
The unknown sea seemed to have cut off the heat wave of the fire. This time, Sean felt that he was much calmer and taller: "Under your guidance, I once found a lost soul. However, I found that you are still If you have anything to say - please say it, I will listen to your experiences and difficulties with piety and solemnity..."
Conversations with spirits or past wills must be formal. This is the only way to show respect and convey kindness after crossing the gap between life and death. So Sean had already drafted his words beforehand.
The female worker standing closest did not answer, but just raised an arm - there was bloody flesh under the cracked black skin, and even so, the eternal flame was still burning on this arm.
The meaning of this vision from the past was conveyed to Sean's mind: Only after you have experienced our pain can you be qualified to listen.
