Chapter 172 Investigation
In a slum area on the outskirts of the metropolis, Cowen was sitting in a rented car and talking on the phone.
The call was from Bruce Wayne.
At this time, the other party has firmly established the idea of forming the "Justice League", and has begun to formally contact the members who participated in that battle.
Everyone else has already agreed, and now only Kewen and Farah are left.
So Bruce Wayne called Cowen, who could call the shots.
Of course, Ke Wen would not join the organization where Superman was in charge of justice and others were in charge of the alliance, so he directly refused, saying that he had to deal with angels and demons every day and had no time to care about other things.
Just as he was speaking, a figure came from the distance of the street.
Seeing this, Ke Wen immediately said: "Let's do this first, Bruce, I'm going to deal with a demon that possessed the world."
"As for the alliance, you can call Farah directly, but I guess we 'Kama Taj' can only be named with you, and we can only help in major disasters."
There was silence on the other side of the phone, and then Bruce Wayne responded with some helplessness and disappointment: "Well then, Kewen, but I hope you can also put your name on it, which will allow the alliance to have more opportunities to face the government in the future." The right to speak."
"You can do whatever you want."
Ke Wen agreed to this request. Seeing that the person was getting closer, he finally said: "My target has appeared here, hang up first, oh yes."
Thinking of something, Ke Wen then changed the subject and said with a smile: "Bruce, help me ask Diana when I have time, and tell her, I'm still waiting for her call."
"Is this okay?" Bruce Wayne said helplessly: "I would rather be your intermediary in other areas, but this topic..."
"Do me a favor." Ke Wen said with a smile: "Needless to say, just remind her."
"Okay..." Bruce Wayne agreed.
"That's it, see you later."
Cowen hung up the phone while pushing the car door open.
Putting away his phone, he walked towards the dwelling apartment not far away.
After walking to the door first, he waited for a while, and when the middle-aged man with a round hat approached, Ke Wen suddenly said, "Jacob Lacy?"
The man was taken aback, looked at Ke Wen through the small lenses of the brown glasses, then nodded and said, "It's me, are you the client? Isn't it a lady who contacted me?"
"No, I'm an intern sent by the church."
Ke Wen raised his hand and shook it in the air, as if he was holding some ID in his hand.
The man named Jacob looked at the air, and then suddenly said: "So that's the case, but what's the matter with you?"
"That's right."
Ke Wen said nonsense: "The church thinks you have a strong ability to exorcise demons, so they sent me to learn it."
"Learning? From me?"
Jacob was stunned, and then he smiled wryly and shook his head: "I have nothing to learn, I..."
"In return."
Ke Wen interrupted suddenly, and he said seductively: "In return for agreeing to let me practice with you, you will enjoy a discount when you buy holy water in the church in the future."
"Really?" Jacob confirmed with surprise.
"Yes." Ke Wen put his hand into his pocket while nodding.
He created a cross pendant and imbued it with a tiny amount of holy light.
Taking out the cross and showing it, Ke Wen continued: "This cross with the ability to exorcise demons is also the reward for this internship."
Jacob looked at the cross.
As he often dealt with all kinds of dirty things, he soon discovered the warm feeling emanating from the cross.
This made his eyes a little excited, and he nodded repeatedly while reaching out his hand and said, "No problem! I agree!"
However, Cowen held back.
He put the cross back into his pocket, and said with a resisting smile: "This is the reward that will be delivered after the internship is over."
"Ah, then, then..."
Jacob showed a disappointed look, but he soon regained his energy.
Pointing to the door of the apartment behind Ke Wen, Jacob said impatiently: "Then let's go in! There are still poor victims waiting for us to save!"
Corvin smiled and turned sideways out of the way.
Jacob lifted the leather bag in his hand, and then walked into the apartment.
The two went all the way to the third floor and walked along the long corridor without any lights.
While walking, Jacob looked up at the broken lamps on the corridor ceiling, then sighed and said: "Darkness breeds evil, and too many tragedies are caused by irresponsibility in various aspects, such as these public lamps. "
Raising his hand and pointing at a broken light bulb, Jacob went on to say: "People are too indifferent, otherwise for such a good lamp, just changing the light bulb can make the light reappear here, and it won't cause evil spirits. Breed here because of the long darkness."

"Been taught a lesson."
Ke Wen, who followed behind, praised it seriously.
Jacob nodded in satisfaction. He said no more, and led Kewen all the way to find the house number.
He raised his hand and knocked on the door.
The two of them didn't have to wait long, and soon someone opened the door.
The client was a very haggard woman, about thirty years old.
After opening the door to see Ke Wen and the two of them, she couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and fear and sadness appeared on her face again.
"Hello, Ms. Bess."
Jacob took off his hat in greeting, revealing a large bald scalp.
"Thank you very much for coming!" The client took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then prayed, "I really hope you can help my poor sister! She, she, I don't know how she became like that! I'm scared!"
"Please calm down Ms. Bess."
Jacob calmed down gently: "It's okay, let me take a look."
The client nodded repeatedly, and turned sideways to let the door open.
Ke Wen followed Jacob into the dark room, and the two looked towards the bedroom at the same time, because there were terrifying roars and collisions in it.
Under the signal of Jacob's questioning eyes, the client nodded to indicate that he was there.
Seeing this, Jacob walked straight to the bedroom door without any fear.
Click!
The doorknob was twisted, and Jacob pushed the door open without any defensive action.
This made Ke Wen stunned.
Are you so reckless?
He was quite sure that the Jacob in front of him was just an ordinary person.
But looking at the confident look of the other party... Could it be that the other party really mastered some special method of exorcism?
Interest arose, and Cowen followed Jacob's footsteps into the bedroom, and saw a woman with her limbs bound on the bed.
The woman is struggling and screaming, her twins are completely covered in white.
The temperature in the room was very low, and while the woman roared, she exhaled a white mist from her jet-black mouth.
Ke Wen, who walked into the bedroom, glanced at the woman, and he found that what was possessed in her body was just a little devil that couldn't even be called a trash fish.
A little devil of this level can only frighten people, and he doesn't even dare to harm others after possessing him.
Not limited by any rules, but unable to beat.
They don't have the ability to fully control the possessed body, and they can't even control the balance of the body.
So if you control your body to hurt others, you may be easily knocked down with a punch.
After discovering this, Ke Wen looked at Jacob who was not at all nervous.
The other party's calm made him doubt again.
Is it because of his great ability, his familiarity with strange things, or other reasons that made Jacob so confident when facing the devil?
Before Kewen could think about it, Jacob made a move.
He put the handbag on the desk next to the door and took out a Bible from it.
Jacob didn't look at the screaming devil at all, but calmly opened the Bible, looking for the exorcism scriptures to be used later.
At this moment, the little devil who was struggling and screaming on the bed suddenly froze.
It leaned back halfway, and carefully looked at Jacob's side face.
In the next moment, the milky white eye mask in the middle of its pair disappeared instantly, and turned into a vertical eyeball.
After looking at Jacob again, the little devil couldn't help probing, "Jacob?"
This call made Jacob finally lose his composure.
He turned his head to look at the woman on the bed, and asked tentatively in the same tone: "Valak?"
"Heh, heh heh haha..."
The woman on the bed suddenly laughed, as if she met an old friend in a foreign land.
And Jacob smiled, too.
He pointed at the woman on the bed happily and said, "Shit, are you kidding me?"
Saying that, Jacob directly pulled a chair and sat down beside the bed.
Like a conversation between old friends, Jacob asks the devil how he's been doing, in a mix of swear words.
The devil named "Valak" said that he was still the same, always being careful in hell, and looking for every opportunity to go to the human world to steal some fear to eat.
Then, the devil asked Jacob how he was doing recently.
Jacob said helplessly that the exorcist industry is too involved, and most of the business has been robbed by a force called "Kama Taj".
And most of the remaining small part of the business was taken away by a man named 'Konstantin'.
Complaining to this point, Jacob couldn't help but raise his hand to slap the devil in relief.
Slapping it on the woman's chest, Jacob smiled and said with emotion: "Fortunately, I have you, Valak. If it weren't for you who often provide me with business, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to afford holy water."
"Ha ha ha ha--"
The devil possessing the woman couldn't help laughing out loud as if listening to a joke.
Jacob also seemed to have told a successful joke, and he also opened his mouth wide and burst out laughing.
Snapped!
Ke Wen, who was standing at the door, couldn't help raising his hand to cover his forehead, what the hell is this...
