While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

Soon, Cao Kun noticed another bruise on her snow-white thigh.

This bruise is also quite large, but its color is a bit darker.

Cao Kun nodded: "Alright."

Anne-Heather breathed a slight sigh of relief and quickly pulled her pants back on.

Cao Kun noticed that her face was a little red, and she seemed a bit shy.

Cao Kun pretended not to see it and asked, "Doesn't it hurt?"

Anne-Heather replied hurriedly, "Yes, I hadn't even noticed it myself."

I first noticed the patch on my leg, and then I deliberately looked in the mirror before I saw the patch on my back.

Cao Kun sighed inwardly, "Come out and talk."

Seeing Cao Kun's solemn expression, Anne Hathaway also became a little nervous.

He followed Cao Kun back to the rest area outside and sat down, immediately asking, "Master Cao, is this really a paranormal event?"

Cao Kun: "This is not just a paranormal event, but something extraordinary."

"what!"

Anne Heather's face paled instantly: "Is it very serious?"

Cao Kun: "The bruises on your body are no ordinary bruises; they are a curse."

"A curse?" Anne Hathaway and her agent both paled.

Cao Kun: "That's right, it's a curse."

Cao Kun was all too familiar with this curse.

The Brotherhood we took down before were experts in this area.

Cao Kun: "It is precisely because of these curses that no matter where you hide, it will be useless."

You will still have nightmares, and even experience bad luck...

"Yes, I've had a lot of bad luck lately," Anne-Heather said hurriedly. "I cut my hand while peeling fruit, lost my wallet, and got splashed with water from upstairs..."

Cao Kun: "These are just the beginning. The further you go, the more unlucky you will become."

Anne-Heather panicked slightly: "What should we do?"

Cao Kun: "You have two choices. First, I will remove the curse power attached to you, and the bruises on your body will disappear immediately, and you will never have nightmares again."

However, you must never go back to your current home; if you do, it will immediately bring about a second curse.

Anne-Heather's eyes lit up with hope: "What's the second option?"

Cao Kun: "Resolve the source of your curse, which is the problem within your house."

Now your house is clean, and you can go home and live normally.

Anne-Heather thought for a moment and asked, "How much will each cost?"

Cao Kun: "The first option is $5. The second option starts at $10. I will not charge extra if it is not necessary."

This necessity refers to the fact that the monsters we are facing are far too powerful; under normal circumstances, I would be unable to handle them.

A sum of 5 yuan can only make things better for myself; I can't keep the house.

With an additional 5, the house can be saved.

There's no need to think too much about which one to choose.

Anne Hathaway: "I choose option two."

Cao Kun was not surprised: "A $2 advance payment, with the balance due after the matter is resolved. If it fails, the advance payment is refundable."

Anne Hathaway, who had recently made some money, had no objection to this and immediately wrote a check for $2 to Cao Kun.

After putting away the check, Cao Kun stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go to your house and take a look."

"Wait a minute," Anne-Heather said softly, "Didn't you say you'd help me break the curse first?"

Cao Kun: "Since you've chosen the second option, the curse can't be resolved for now, otherwise it will alert something."

"Okay." Anne-Heather thought about it for a moment and agreed that it made sense.

Seeing that Cao Kun's hands were empty, Anne-Heather asked, "Do you want to prepare something?"

Cao Kun: "No need, let's go."

Anne Hathaway didn't ask too many questions, so she and her agent Molly got up and followed Cao Kun out the door.

"Keep watching the store. Call me if anything happens."

After giving Fleischer a few instructions, Cao Kun drove behind Anne-Hathaway's car.

The cars drove away one after the other.

More than half an hour later, they arrived at an affluent neighborhood.

But Anne Hathaway didn't stop; she kept driving until she came to a house that was quite a distance from the others.

From a distance, Cao Kun could tell that the house was quite old.

Under the aura-gazing technique, the house was shrouded in an eerie and sinister aura.

Cao Kun's expression darkened; this item seemed to be more than just ordinary.

After the car was parked in the yard, Cao Kun got out and felt the sinister power even more strongly.

If a person stays in this power for a few days, they will be affected, cursed, and targeted from then on.

After Cao Kun and his two companions got out of the car, Anne Hathaway's agent showed no intention of going inside.

"Annie, I have to go now. I wish you a successful exorcism."

After saying that, the agent drove away quickly without waiting for Annie to say anything.

Anne-Heather paused for a moment, then looked helplessly at Cao Kun.

Cao Kun: "Ms. Heather, your agent doesn't seem very reliable."

"Just call me Anne." A hint of displeasure flashed in Anne-Heather's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. "It's normal to be afraid in this kind of situation."

Cao Kun nodded secretly.

Don't be fooled by Anne Hathaway's current popularity; it won't be long before she becomes increasingly disliked by Americans.

She even ranked second in a survey of "the female celebrity you hate the most".

The actress who plays Pepper Potts, Iron Man's wife, is ranked number one.

The reason why people in the US dislike Anne Hathaway is that they think she's too pretentious.

They always present a perfect image.

This kind of persona used to be very popular, but over time, it has become perceived as too fake by the audience.

On the contrary, a down-to-earth persona is more popular.

For example, a certain female celebrity known as "Big Sister" quickly became popular by cultivating a "silly big sister" persona.

But in reality, she often washes her face with milk in private.

Anne Hathaway is clearly cunning as well.

She clearly disliked her agent's actions but didn't show it; no wonder she became famous so quickly.

And afterwards, she joined the ranks of top-tier actresses.

Cao Kun didn't say anything more and followed her into the house.

As soon as Cao Kun entered, he felt that the temperature inside the room was a few degrees lower than outside.

He felt it; that familiar chill.

Cao Kun: "Take me on a tour."

"Master Cao, this way please."

Although the house in Anne-Hathaway is old, it looks really nice.

It's big enough and made of sturdy materials.

The interior design style, when viewed today, has a retro feel.

With some furniture that Anne Hathaway herself sourced, the house has a truly artistic feel.

Why did you buy such an old house?

Cao Kun asked questions as he toured the place.

Anne-Heather sighed softly: "I didn't think much about it before; I was just attracted by the house's retro style. I never expected it to turn out like this."

As they spoke, they arrived at the backyard.

The backyard is large, with a swimming pool and a tree next to it.

Judging from its lush foliage, this tree is quite old.

Cao Kun stared at the tree for several moments before looking away: "Let's go inside."

Cao Kun then went to the basement, kitchen, and second-floor bedroom to take another look.

After Cao Kun finished his tour, Anne-Heather asked softly, "So, Master Cao, did you figure anything out?"

Cao Kun: "Almost there. I already know what it is that wants to harm you."
