They found the stairs leading up behind a secret door near the stage, and finally entered Mary Shaw's former residence after walking through a dim corridor.
"Shh, be careful," Rowling said.
Over the years, the residence had become dusty and cobwebs were everywhere. There were dolls on the shelves on the wall, not only that, but also a baby seat, and there was also a doll wearing a small dress lying on the floor.
Rowling walked over and picked up the doll, turned it over and found that there was another mechanism pulling the string. She pulled the doll in her hand, and it suddenly called "Mom". Mr. Warren glanced at the doll, and then walked towards the old suitcase on the ground.
Rowling stared at the doll and said, "Mary Shaw regards the puppet as her own child, and she actually longs to be a mother."
When she said this, Winnie keenly sensed a cold gaze coming from behind another wall. She glanced at the mobile phone strap hanging around her neck. The mobile phone was currently making a video call with Lisa. It was not easy for her to move alone. She did this before to find an excuse to follow him, but now that she's in, she doesn't have to carry a surveillance camera with her.
Lisa, who was sitting in the car and staring at the phone screen, saw the video screen distorted and fluctuated, which startled her. She thought it was a sign that a ghost was coming: "What's wrong over there? I can't see you clearly." ”
Jamie, who was bending down to open the box, looked over and saw that Winnie's cell phone video seemed to be stuck, and Lisa's voice was intermittent.
Jamie hurriedly asked: "What's going on?"
Winnie also picked up the phone in confusion and poked at the screen a few times: "I don't know, it was fine before. Is there something wrong with the magnetic field?" Then she poked and turned off the video call.
When they mentioned that the magnetic field was wrong, the Warrens looked around vigilantly, trying to see if Mary Xiao was coming. Immediately afterwards, Jamie's mobile phone received a call from Lisa. After making sure that there was no emergency on their side, Lisa felt relieved.
"It was probably caused by accidentally falling into the water last time." Winnie said. She untied the rope and handed it to Jamie who hung up the phone: "Here it is, if you need to have a video call with Lisa."
Jamie thought for a while and took the call. Knowing that Lisa was worried in the car, he also hung the phone around his neck, turned the camera and made a video call to Lisa, and the call was quickly connected to the other end.
Jamie: "Winnie's phone is probably broken."
Lisa: "Just be okay, you just scared me."
"Look at this." Mr. Warren greeted them holding a notebook.
Jamie and Rowling immediately walked over and stood next to Mr. Warren to watch together.
This notebook records the puppet designs hand-drawn by Mary Xiao. The drawings are very detailed. Looking back further, Mary Xiao is no longer satisfied with making ordinary puppets. She wants to design a "perfect puppet."
While the three of them were looking through their notes attentively, Winnie quietly approached a certain wall in the room and pretended to be searching for clues. With a silent flick of her wrist, a chain extended from her hand, winding around the wall and leading to the room at the other end.
The next moment, the room suddenly became cold!
This instant change in temperature made the three people who saw Ella's head shiver violently, feeling a chill in their bodies and hearts at the same time.
"What's going on?" Jamie looked around warily. Having experienced last night's experience, he already knew that the air would cool down when the evil spirit arrived.
Could it be that Mary Xiao is here?
They had just discovered that stepmother Ella was Mary Shaw's "perfect puppet", and the next moment Mary Shaw came looking for her.
Lisa, who had been paying attention here, asked anxiously: "What's wrong? What happened over there?"
Winnie frowned, the movement was still too big. Does this world have such settings for ghosts?
Mr. Warren had already taken out the Bible and the cross, and looked around quickly. Rowling, who cooperated with him tacitly, quickly flipped through the notebook, looking for important clues. And she soon found newspaper clippings from decades ago, which recorded the disappearance of a small town boy, and this boy happened to be named "Eisen".
Behind another wall, a little girl with her head lowered, wearing a red dress and holding a rabbit doll, appeared in the center of the room. Opposite her, Mary Xiao held a clown puppet and stared at the ghost who suddenly broke in.
The little girl's hair was disheveled, and her long hair completely covered her face.
"Want to play with dolls together?" (Chinese)
Mary Xiao didn't understand, but she sensed the malice coming from the little girl, so she suddenly opened her mouth and spit out a long tongue connected by countless tongues to stab the little girl.
The little girl disappeared in the next second and appeared in another corner.
"Want to play with dolls together?"
Outside, Rowling looked at Jamie and spoke quickly: "I probably know why Mary Xiao wanted to kill you. The boy who disappeared back then was named Aisen. He should be a relative of your family."
The town residents and the child's family killed Mary Shaw because of him, so Mary Shaw took revenge on the Eisen family and killed all the town residents involved.
"Snapped!"
Suddenly, a sound of glass bursting startled everyone! They all looked in a certain direction. Winnie took two steps back in horror, moving away from the wall: "What's the movement?"
Mr. Warren held up the cross and cautiously approached it. As he walked over, he discovered the visual deception caused by the wallpaper on the wall. There was another wall behind one wall. Rowling followed her husband behind the wall. At this time, there was a continuous sound of glass breaking.
The little girl in the red skirt felt the invisible chain on her wrist move, and her blood-red pupils hidden behind her black hair looked in the direction of the living person.
So, when Mr. Warren, who was walking at the front holding a cross, almost reached the door of another room, he didn't know why but didn't go in. Instead, he turned around and walked back toward the other wall. Rowling and others who were following him also followed suit. He followed silently without saying a word.
Lisa, who was looking at the situation here through her mobile phone camera, saw them circling back and forth in the short corridor, and couldn't help asking curiously: "What are you doing?"
However, neither Jamie nor anyone else responded to her.
The expression on Lisa's face was a little frightened. The phone was hung on Jamie's chest, and the only thing the camera could see was Rowling's back. There was no conversation, only the sound of footsteps as they walked in circles unconsciously. Through the camera, Lisa felt a chill coming over her.
Lisa called out tremblingly: "Jamie?"
When there was no response, Lisa increased her voice: "Winnie?"
Lisa held the phone and her pupils trembled: "Don't scare me, what are you doing?"
A thin layer of sweat broke out on her forehead. She hung up the video in the background and dialed Winnie's phone. Not long after, Winnie's cell phone ringtone came from the other end of the video. She hurriedly cut the video back, but their walk continued. It was as if they couldn't hear or feel. No one spoke or answered the phone.
The camera of the video shook slightly, always looking at Rowling's back.
With a pale face, Lisa looked towards the gloomy theater in the middle of the lake.
In the theater, in a room separated by a wall from the living people, Mary Shaw is possessed by puppets all over the wall. Every time she moves, she will be attacked by a large piece of black hair. The sound of glass bursting that Rowling and the others heard was caused by this.
They are all ghosts. Mary Xiao's attack methods obviously have limitations. Even if she is older, she cannot match the sharpness of the black hair. Not to mention making the little girl who was also a ferocious spirit scream. She tried to attack the little girl with her tongue, but a long section of her tongue was twisted into pieces by her long hair.
Knowing that the little girl was not easy to mess with, Mary Xiao could only keep moving among the puppets.
Until, two strands of black hair entangled her.
Mary Xiao's voice was like the voices of many people coming together: "Why are you going against me?"
She couldn't figure out how the little girl appeared, and the twisted and crawling male ghost last night. She has existed in the town of Ravensfield for so long, and she has never met another ghost, let alone this kind of evil spirit that scares all ghosts.
Little girl: "You won't play with my dolls." (Chinese)
The little girl slowly raised her head, her black hair sliding to both sides to reveal her pale face, her scarlet pupils full of hatred and violence: "I will crush you." (Chinese)
The two strands of black hair entangled in Mary Xiao's upper and lower body suddenly twisted in opposite directions, like twisting a towel, and Mary Xiao's ghost twisted in pain.
Her body, which had been made into a puppet, howled in pain, and long tongues made up of countless tongues were flung out. The round wooden puppet eyes were squeezed out of their sockets, and her mouth was torn and widened...
If it were a living person's body, it would definitely crack the muscles and bones, and twist out the blood from the whole body like a towel.
As for the ghost, Mary Shaw was twisted into "thin threads" and finally disintegrated into the air.
The black hair fluttering in the air shrank back a little, and the little girl in a red skirt walked to the door of the room holding a rabbit doll, and silently held Winnie's hand as she passed by.
Lisa, who had been staring at the phone screen and shouting, felt that the video quality was distorted, and the next moment the four people spinning in circles finally stopped.
"Jamie! Winnie!" Lisa yelled.
Jamie was stunned for a moment, hearing the fear in his wife's voice, picked up the phone and asked: "What's wrong Lisa? What did you meet?"
He thought something had happened to Lisa over there.
Finally there was a response, and Lisa's suppressed tears immediately flowed down: "Thank God! You finally heard me! You just kept spinning in circles, and you didn't respond no matter how I called."
"What?"
Indeed, their current direction is obviously heading back.
Jamie felt like his scalp was exploding!
"There's no movement." Luo Lin rolled her eyes and whispered.
The sound of breaking glass stopped at some point.
The world seemed to suddenly become silent, except for the sound of their increasingly heavy breathing.
Rowling took a deep breath, slowly turned her stiff body, and walked towards the door of another room.
Winnie calmly curled her lips slightly and shook the hand she was holding.
