People are in Marvel, and the system is working as a worker

"No, no, no." Melinda waved her hands repeatedly, "My husband is a very nice person, but something happened to him. I don't know who to tell."

Kate grabbed Melinda's hand, "Caitlin, you can say anything to me, really."

Melinda hesitated for a moment, but finally told Kate what she had experienced, and then stared at Kate slightly nervously.

Kate probably thinks I'm crazy...

Unexpectedly, Kate hugged Melinda and said, "It must be very despairing to experience such a thing."

Melinda couldn't help but hug Kate and cry again.

She needed an outlet so much.

After a while, Melinda gradually calmed down and said sheepishly: "Sorry, Kate."

Kate said, "It's okay."

Then he complained about Melinda's husband, and finally asked Melinda what her plans were.

Melinda said she would pick up Robbie from kindergarten after get off work and then stay in a hotel that night.

Kate said: "This is good, but it is not a long-term solution after all. In fact... I have a friend who also experienced something like this, and later..."

"What happened next?" Melinda asked anxiously.

"Later I found professionals to deal with it and it was solved." Kate approached Melinda and said mysteriously: "There is a small building with an ivy on the outside in the west of the town. It belongs to the Winchester family. They are the professionals who my friend found person'."

"Winchester." Melinda imprinted this last name deeply in her mind.歭

Melinda is not an ignorant woman.She knew that nine out of ten so-called "professionals" were liars.

I can only try...

A dead horse is a living horse doctor.

After the meal, Geralt sat on the sofa and turned on the computer.

Log in to the official Witcher website.

There is a short website:

[No.: TGW20020621-18-D, acceptance completed, task completed, reward paid. 】歭

The guild is known to have five special types of work:

Operator [Miss Elizabeth]

Messenger [Mr. Raven]

Investigator [Hound Boy]

Scavenger【Master Vulture】

Acceptance Officer [Mrs. Owl].

The existence of Mrs. Owl is more mysterious than Miss Elizabeth.歭

Next, Geralt wandered around the mission area while watching TV series with his dog.

The protagonist in the play is a high school student who is in the nerd camp and is the target of bullying.

She has a weak and low self-esteem, and has a crush on the school beauty.

On the eve of his 18th birthday, a meticulously dressed old white male gentleman suddenly appeared.

The gentleman told the protagonist that his father was a great demon hunter and wanted his son to be an ordinary person, so he sealed the protagonist's talent and gave it to his sister-in-law to raise.

Now the protagonist's seal is beginning to loosen, and monsters and ghosts who covet the talent are about to swarm in.

The protagonist definitely didn’t believe it and warned the gentleman that he would call the police if he didn’t leave.歭

The old gentleman left calmly.

On the second day of his birthday, the protagonist is attacked by a little devil.At the critical moment, the protagonist's talent awakens and he fights back at the critical moment.

The old gentleman appears again.

Now the protagonist believes in the existence of the devil, but he tells the old gentleman, I'm sorry, I want to be an ordinary person.

Seeing this, Geralt was speechless.

Be an "ordinary person" who is bullied every day?

Well, everyone has their own ambitions, and this kind of thing cannot be forced.The problem is, if you want to be an ordinary person and others won’t let you, the devil will come to kill you!歭

Can't stand it...

Cerberus, on the other hand, was elated, especially when the powerful demon was killed by the protagonist.

Are you so happy when your kind is beaten to death?

Are you afraid that you are a fake devil?

Cerberus looked comfortable, "It's Asmode's turn in the next episode."

"Ok?"

Geralt was stunned, "How do you know?"

"This is a replay," Cerberus said.

Geralt: "..."

Dare to love for the second time, how much hatred and resentment?

Asmodeus, the demon representing [Lust] among the Seven Deadly Sins, is also one of the four supreme pillars of King Solomon's 72 Demonic Pillars.In terms of strength and status, the three-headed dog of hell is far behind. How can the two intersect?

What did Asmodeus do, smash the Cerberus kennel?Or did you attack Cerberus's [favorite dog]?

……

...years old

Ding dong.

Doorbell rang.

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

Rebecca stood by the door, staring curiously at the visual access control screen.

This is the first time anyone has visited since moving here.

"I, I...is Mr. Winchester here?"

"Are you looking for the young master?"

"Forehead……"

Melinda was stunned, what the hell is going on, young master?

Such a retro title?

"Yes……"

"Oh, wait a minute." Rebecca jumped to the living room, "Master... someone is looking for you!"

"Who?" Geralt asked.

"I don't know." Rebecca tilted her head, "Shall I ask?"

"Forget it." Geralt stopped Rebecca, "I'll ask."

"Also, be careful not to turn around."

"Yes!" Rebecca clenched her fist hard, "I will work hard to become a qualified maid!"

What a great goal...

Come to the door.

I saw a woman in a long skirt on the screen. She was in her early thirties, exuding a haggard look that could be felt through the screen.

A voice came from the intercom on the iron door: "I'm Winchester."

Melinda's voice was calm and powerful, and she said, "Hello, Mr. Winchester, my friend told me that you can handle some special things."

"Something special..." Geralt pondered for a moment, looking for something to do when he was idle.

"Please come in."

As the intercom came out again, the iron door clicked open.

The yard was full of flowers and plants, and it was obvious that someone had carefully taken care of it.

The house door opened.

The person who opened the door was a girl wearing a black and white maid dress. She stood sideways, her face filled with inexplicable joy.歭

Then came a dark haired teen.

Melinda guessed that the teenager was the "young master" the maid called him.

So...who is the Winchester with the calm voice?

"Hello, my name is Geralt Winchester."

"I'm Melinda Benjamin, hello Mr. Winchester?"

Geralt's voice was so similar to the "Mr. Winchester" on the intercom that Melinda couldn't believe it.

If so, then "Mr. Winchester" is too young.歭

"If you are referring to the 'Mr. Winchester' who spoke to you before, then yes." Geralt guessed what Melinda was thinking, it was nothing more than "too young" or something like that. I have met him once or twice, and I know him well.

Geralt continued: "Miss Melinda... is here, so why not talk about those 'special' things. Maybe I can help."

Yes, it's coming... Melinda thought to herself.

"Rebecca, make two cups of three-flower tea."

"Okay sir."

"Three-flower tea, a drink made with honeysuckle, chrysanthemum and jasmine as its main ingredients, can clear away heat and detoxify, and help you meditate." Geralt explained the three-flower tea to Melinda.

"Thank you, thank you." Melinda knew that she must have looked too haggard.歭

There is no woman who does not love beauty.It’s just that some people put “mother”, “daughter”, “wife” and other identities before “woman” in life.

Therefore, before complaining about your yellow-faced woman's slovenliness, first ask her if she is too tired, just like a wife before questioning her husband for being drunk, think about whether he is socializing for the sake of the family.

Melinda told her story from beginning to end.She noticed that Geralt was listening very carefully.

"Mrs. Melinda, I have a few questions that I need you to answer truthfully."

"no problem."

"Did you experience similar incidents before moving to Black Pine Town?"

"No...absolutely not." Melinda shook her head, "I'm not afraid of your jokes. I don't have much courage at the moment. If I did, I would definitely remember it deeply."

"Logically speaking, when something like this happens, the first person to ask for help should be your family. In your description, the number of appearances your husband made...is a bit small."

"My husband is starting a business, which is not going well and is very hard. He is a staunch atheist and thinks that I am just hallucinating due to my inability to adapt to the new environment, so he asked me to see a psychiatrist." Melinda continued: "And It’s strange that as long as my husband is home, everything is fine.”

Melinda smiled bitterly, "Sometimes I also think that maybe I am just crazy."

Geralt shook his head and said:

"No. Mrs. Melinda, I assure you with my personal professionalism that you are not crazy. There is indeed something happening in your family that cannot be explained by science for the time being. This is my first judgment."

"From your description, I can feel its or their cunning, but its tricks just show that it is not strong enough to directly harm you and your family. Everything it has done before is to weaken your will , make you collapse, make you despair, and then take advantage of it.”

"Is that so?"

"That's right." Geralt looked at Melinda with encouraging eyes, "Mrs. Melinda, as long as your will is strong enough, it will be the weak one."

Hope gradually rose in Melinda's heart, "What on earth is it."

"Usually we call it 'weird' or 'malicious entity.' As for the specific type, I cannot make a direct judgment from a simple description, otherwise I would be irresponsible."

"Have you called the police?" Geralt asked.

Melinda nodded, then smiled bitterly, "It's good that they didn't think of me as a crazy woman."

It's useless for ordinary police to come, they don't care about this.

I can't control it even if I want to.歭

"What about the church? Most people trust the church more than other professionals," Geralt said.

"The church...my husband hates the church very, very much, and I don't know why." Melinda used three "very"s, "I secretly wore a cross and hid several idols. But...is it useful to ask the church for help? ?”

"Yes. Of course, an organization that has existed for tens of thousands of years has its reasons for existing. But..." Geralt said: "Don't expect the priests in Black Pine Town. They are only familiar with the Bible and are relatively good at deceiving... Well, they are eloquent. It’s just a good way.”

"Furthermore, the church's exorcism procedures are very cumbersome. First, they need to be reported at various levels, and then undergo strict medical examination to confirm that it is not a mental illness. Finally, priests with the ability to exorcise demons are dispatched from the headquarters or other places."

"The most efficient ones in the church are the Inquisition and the Knights Templar. However, the main responsibility of the Knights Templar is to defend the church headquarters and protect the pope, and do not move easily. The Inquisition...their goal is to eliminate heretics at all costs. Everything. Do you understand the price? Many times the target of exorcism is 'all costs'?"

……

...years old

"5000 Baileys."

After Melinda was convinced, Geralt quoted an amount.

According to the guild's D-level standards.

Not too expensive.

But for Melinda, it was not a small sum, especially since she had just spent all her money to buy a house.

Melinda lowered her head and said nothing.

Geralt sighed and said: "Church exorcism is free, but first of all, distant water can't save close fire. Secondly, 'free is the most expensive', have you heard of this saying?"

Gritting her teeth, Melinda opened her wallet in front of Geralt and poured out the steel.

I counted more than 3 beli in total.

……

……

Geralt shook his head, "Miss Melinda, 5000 beli is not expensive. In fact, I am not short of money. Witcher is one of the most dangerous professions in the world. Any action, even the lowest level mission, will be dangerous." There is a possibility of facing fatal danger. Then..."

"Miss Melinda, should I work hard for strangers regardless of reward?"

"Why? Because you are pitiful?"

"You know, if I die, there will be people who are also grieving for my death. I am also a child that my parents love."

“Or do I have to do it just because I can do it?”

"In fact, even if the asking price is 1 or 2 Baileys, when you are desperate, you will sell your blood, sell your body, mortgage your house, and risk your life to get it together, right? After all, it is about your son."

"Think about it again, business cannot be done without righteousness."

There is no denying that there are some great people in the world who are willing to sacrifice themselves to save others.

There are such people among the witcher community, but they usually die quickly.Because the Witcher is a special profession.

"Special" with a particularly high mortality rate.歭

Once sensibility defeats reason, death has already marked your body, waiting for the opportunity to be harvested.

Geralt picked up the tea cup.

Then I remembered that there is no custom in this world of "bringing tea to guests".

Melinda gritted her teeth and took off the diamond ring from her ring finger, "This is my wedding ring. It's worth 2000 beli. I will redeem it, for sure."

"Okay." Geralt nodded.

Geralt took out two jars from the cabinet, "Today you and your son are staying in the hotel. One is filled with fire tree seeds and the other is filled with salt. Of course it is not ordinary salt."

Geralt handed the two jars to Melinda, "Mix fire tree seeds and salt, and sprinkle them on the edges of doors and windows. Watch carefully the next day to see if the salt has turned gray or black."

Melinda put the jar away like a baby and asked, "What if it turns gray or black?"

Geralt said: "It means that thing from your house has followed you."

As soon as these words came out, Melinda's face suddenly turned ugly.

Geralt comforted: "It's just a possibility. Besides, there are fire tree seeds and salt to protect you."

Melinda came out during her lunch break and had to go back to work.

Geralt suddenly thought of a question, "By the way, you just moved here a few months ago. Did you buy the house from the owner or through an agent?"

"Agency...Roman Agency."

"Oh."

Roman intermediary, haha, what a coincidence.

……

At noon the next day, Melinda came to Geralt's house again.

Looks much better.

During this period, her sleep quality was extremely poor. She was half asleep and half awake, and she always felt like someone was talking in her ear.

I slept until dawn today.歭

Melinda had a little more confidence in Geralt, and she told Geralt that the salt had not changed color.
