I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

Most men have a habit of showing off their "trophies" to their friends.

Even a rigid guy like Ed couldn't escape the common fate.

Ed was quite proud of his family's collection.

As he led Li Yuan to the basement,

He talked incessantly about the collection inside to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan echoed with a smile.

With a touch of curiosity, I followed Ed into the basement.

This is the legendary "Warren Supernatural Museum".

This is a basement that isn't very big.

The wooden walls were covered with all sorts of antique decorations.

In the very center of the basement, there were several wooden display cases.

The surface was almost entirely covered with all sorts of supernatural items.

Ed stood in the basement, proudly introducing himself to Li Yuan:

"These items are souvenirs that Rowling and I brought back from various crime scenes."

Some of them are actually supernatural items.

Some of them were possessed by evil spirits or vengeful ghosts.

As he spoke, Ed picked up a music box and waved it at Li Yuan:

"Remember this? I brought it back from the exorcism at the Perrins' house in Rhodes Island last time."

Li Yuan smiled and nodded, recalling his exorcism experience:

"I remember there seemed to be a vengeful spirit of a boy living inside, but he disappeared later."

"That's right, this music box really got Rowling into trouble."

Ed looked at Li Yuan gratefully, and said with some lingering fear:

"If you hadn't intervened in time, Rowling might have been in danger."

Li Yuan shook his head and said softly:

"I believe that you could have handled that incident even without me."

Li Yuan didn't stand on ceremony.

In the original storyline, it was this incident that the couple resolved.

However, the devil found their daughter Judy through Rowling's necklace.

And, they secretly broke Annabelle's seal.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan slightly turned his head.

Just then, I saw the depths of the basement.

The 'cute' doll displayed in the glass case is Annabelle.

She was wearing a white dress and had two braids.

The blush painted on her face looked eerie and sinister.

Ed looked in the direction Li Yuan was looking and saw Annabelle's figure.

"Honestly, this is the last piece of my collection I want to introduce."

Ed, still shaken, recounted its origins:

"Its name is Annabelle, and we brought it from a nurse's house."

It harbors a powerful demon within it.

Then, he looked at Li Yuan and said seriously:

"I think it might be even more evil than Basshiba."

On the way back with Annabelle that day, it kept causing trouble.

My car was almost overturned.

Ed stood before the glass case, pointed to the seal on it, and explained:

"This cabinet was sanctified by God the Father."

It can firmly lock the demon within Annabelle, preventing it from escaping and causing evil.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan's heart stirred, and he wanted to reach out and touch the cabinet.

Let's see what the differences are.

But Ed, who was beside him, grabbed his arm.

He warned him somewhat nervously:

"Li Yuan, this is the most dangerous piece of artifact in the museum."

The seal must not be broken, or it will cause serious trouble.

"Of course I won't open the cabinet, I'm not crazy!"

Li Yuan, who had been misunderstood, quickly and loudly defended himself:

"I just wanted to study this special seal."

Seeing Li Yuan's somewhat anxious expression, Ed smiled and said:

"You're an experienced exorcist, so I'm sure you won't do anything stupid. This is just a routine reminder."

At that moment, Ed's daughter, Judy, also cautiously entered the basement.

Looking at the collection displayed inside, she felt a little scared.

But his eyes were full of curiosity, clearly showing his great interest in them.

Hearing the noise, Ed quickly turned around and looked towards the door.

Upon discovering it was Judy, Ed smiled and warned her:

"Judy, didn't I tell you you weren't allowed to come here?"

Upon hearing this, Judy turned her gaze away from the collection, pouted, and said:

"Mom sent me to call you. The meat is marinated, it's time to go light the charcoal."

"Okay, we're coming right now."

Ed reached out and patted Li Yuan, who was still studying Annabelle:

"Let's go, Li Yuan, let's go upstairs and set up the grill."

Li Yuan snapped out of his daze, nodded, and said:

"Okay, let's go."

Just after the three left the basement and locked the door again,

Annabelle, sitting upright in the glass case, suddenly shifted her eyes slightly.

Li Yuan and the Warren family of three cooked an American BBQ together.

While grilling the meat, Ed also introduced Li Yuan to his family's secret barbecue marinade.

It is said to have been passed down from his maternal grandmother.

During the meal, Li Yuan praised his secret marinade, saying it tasted really good.

This made Ed very happy.

After the meal, Li Yuan left Luo Lin a set of alchemical potions for self-defense.

He emphasized the uses of the Shadow Protection Potion.

This is the most useful of all the protective agents Li Yuan currently possesses.

Dark magic and curses are also things Rowling often encounters.

Rowling intended to refuse Li Yuan's gift.

After all, these medicines look extremely precious.

But considering their situation, Rowling ultimately put the potion away.

"Mr. Li Yuan, I don't know how to thank you enough."

Li Yuan smiled and shook his head, then said earnestly to Luo Lin:

"These things are nothing compared to the method you taught me to enter the spirit world."

Then, he waved to Rowling, who still wanted to say something.

"I have to go now. My schedule is pretty tight recently, and I still have to go to Alaska."

When the Warrens heard that Li Yuan had other things to do,

She then abandoned the idea of ​​having him stay overnight.

Ed picked up the car keys and said:

"In that case, I'll take you to the airport."

"Alright."

Li Yuan did not refuse, and he instructed Luo Lin:

"Remember to call me if you have any problems. I'm always ready to come over."

Then he waved to Judy:

"Goodbye, Judy. If you ever want to visit Los Angeles, feel free to come find me!"

Judy nodded happily and waved goodbye to Li Yuan.

Rowling stood up and said earnestly to Li Yuan:

"Please be careful on the road, and don't hesitate to ask for our help if you need it."

"I will."

Li Yuan nodded, got into Ed's car, and left the Warrens' house.

"Li Yuan, where should I take you? New York?"

After a moment's thought, Li Yuan said to Ed:

"No need, just send it to the nearest airport."

I need to research the route to Alaska.

Ed nodded upon hearing this, but still asked with some doubt:

Why do you want to go to that godforsaken place?

It's not safe there at this time of year; there might be a polar night.

"Heh, I took a jerk's job to deal with some things for him..."

At this point, Li Yuan was stunned.

He turned to look at Ed, staring at him and asking:

"What did you just say?"

"I said, what are you doing going to that godforsaken place?"

"No! Not this sentence, the next one!"

Ed looked at Li Yuan with a puzzled expression, but still continued:

"It's not safe at this time; there will be polar night there."

"That's right! It's polar night!"

Li Yuan said excitedly:

"Holy crap, I know which movie it is!"

Ed looked completely bewildered. He glanced at Li Yuan and asked with some concern:

"Li Yuan, are you alright?"

Li Yuan recalled the numerous vampires in that movie and said happily:

"Ed, I'm fine! I'm just a little impatient; I can't wait to experience the polar night in Alaska!"
