Chapter 15 More Deaths Are Required
"Officer Ryan."

Peter lifted the cordon and walked into the living room of his cousin Louis's house.

Many neighbors gathered outside the room to watch the fun, and several police cars were parked outside.

Peter walked in and asked Officer Ryan, "What happened?"

"We received a report from Louis's neighbor that he heard screaming here."

Officer Ryan pointed to a pool of blood in the living room and said, "When we arrived, Louise and her wife were gone. There were only traces of blood and a fight at the scene."

Peter frowned and looked around, "That is to say, Mr. and Mrs. Louis may have met with an accident."

"It's very likely. We need to check the blood at the scene."

He patted Peter's shoulder and said, "But it is also possible that the two were kidnapped. Things have not reached the worst point yet. We will find them as soon as possible, no matter whether they are dead or alive."

Peter nodded, lost in thought.

Clark said he saw little Terry at Lewis's house.

I also went to the burial site and confirmed that the soil was broken.

In other words, little Terry, whom Vanessa buried in the charnel ground, returned home like the resurrected son of old White in "The Monkey's Paw."

Little Terry, who has turned into a zombie, killed Louis and his wife?

He had seen how ferocious Bill's hounds were after they turned into zombies.

But if little Terry did it, then where’s the body?
Even if he tore his parents' bodies into pieces, there should be traces left at the scene. It is impossible that there was nothing.

Looking at the dark sky outside, Peter always felt that there was a spreading evil aura covering this place.

After talking to Ryan for a few words, he turned and left.

Not long after Peter left, a figure stood in the distance, staring at the Louis Mansion.

Father Norma, who was also the host of Louis' son's funeral, was observing everything in the crowd.

He waited until the police left before turning around and leaving.

The thin priest was driving the car, coughing and slowing down.

After his coughing subsided, he stopped the car and took out the medicine on the roadside.

Suffering from lung cancer, his life is already on the countdown, and he can only rely on these expensive drugs to prolong his life.

"It's almost successful."

After calming down, he whispered to himself and started the car.

The car stopped in front of a blue house that was already very old.

The shutters were in tatters, and the walls were covered with vines that were twenty or thirty years old. The dense crowds of little feet were almost tearing the walls apart.

A cold wind blew by, rolling up the fallen leaves under the porch. The tangled wind chimes made a messy tinkling sound. Two gray cats were startled by the bells and jumped down the steps and ran to the back of the house.

Father Norma opened the door, threw the car keys on the table, and went into his study.

After locking the study door, he pushed open the bookshelf.

Behind the bookshelf appears an entrance to a basement.

Father Norma walked slowly down the stairs.

The basement was dark and filled with a rotten smell, with an altar in the middle.

In the middle of the altar was placed a thick black book made of human skin.

In order to cure his terminal illness, he has given up his faith in God and started to believe in evil forces.

The book of black magic in front of him is his life-saving straw.

The dark magic books contain dark magic for controlling the undead, which is why he can control the zombies.

Yes, he can control the walkers.

After accidentally discovering that the swamp outside the town could "resurrect" corpses into zombies, he revealed this secret. As expected, there were people who believed in resurrection from the dead and buried their bodies there.

The result is that the corpse turns into a zombie and is controlled by him.

"These are not enough, I have to convert more."

He stared at the black magic book and his expression became ferocious.

The more dark creatures he controls, the stronger his power will be, and he will be able to cure his terminal illness.

"More people need to die!"

He cast a gloomy look at the calendar on the wall.

A date on the calendar was crossed out with a big red cross.

"Are you okay, Peter?"

Kent Farm, Jonathan asked Peter with concern.

"I'm fine, it's just that a lot has been going on lately."

In the living room, Peter stood at the window, looking at the cattle grazing leisurely on the farm.

After returning to Kent Farm from Louis's house, his expression became a little solemn.

"I heard about the Louis family. Tragedy always befalls them."

Jonathan thought Peter was grieving for his cousin Louis.

In fact, he didn't have any deep feelings for his cousin's family.

But who is behind this?
That suspicious priest?
He had previously used his super speed to search the middle-aged priest's residence, but did not find anything suspicious.

Do we need to arrest the other party and interrogate him?
After the interrogation, in order to avoid exposing your abilities, you kill the other party?
"Jonathan, do you know Father Norma of the church?"

Peter stopped his wild thoughts and asked Jonathan about Father Norma.

"I don't know much about him, but I heard he has a good reputation."

Jonathan thought for a moment and said, "He is the host of the Harvest Festival every year. By the way, the Harvest Festival is about to be held soon. If you want to get to know him, you can communicate with him more at the festival."

The "Harvest Festival" that Jonathan mentioned is an annual festival in the small town of Smallville.

The origins of the festival can be traced back to the 17th century, when Puritans who settled in the small town of Smallwell organized celebrations to thank God for the good harvest.

During the festival, people wear traditional costumes and hold various celebrations, such as "bread grabbing" or "apple stands".

"Harvest Festival?"

When Peter heard Jonathan say that the Harvest Festival was coming soon, he subconsciously looked at the watch on his wrist, but forgot that the watch he was wearing was not an ordinary watch.

"Yes, Clark and Zu should be looking forward to this festival."

"Really looking forward to it."

After Peter drove back home, he asked the two boys about their opinions on the Harvest Festival.

The two expressed their anticipation for the Harvest Festival in unison.

"Dad, what does it mean to grab the bread?"

A Zu asked curiously, "Are there many people fighting for one piece of bread?"

"Yes, the young men would throw the bread into the air and the others would try to grab it."

Clark blinked his eyes curiously, "Where's the apple stand?"

Peter ruffled his hair. "The 'apple stand' activity is that people take out their own apples to sell, and these apples are usually made into applesauce or apple pie. Are you interested?"

"Yes, Godfather."

Clark was obviously interested in the apple stall activity and he was already thinking about how to get his godfather to teach him how to make apple pie.
