Chapter 454 Want to go out and have some fun? I'll broaden your horizons!

Catherine's mission is to help Damon break the seal on the tomb and kill all the vampires inside, including the non-existent Catherine.

Task completed.

Carol Lockwood's mission is to kill all the sealed vampires in the tomb.

Task completed.

Damon's task is to help break the seal on the tomb.

The mission has been completed.

One fish, three birds with one stone; this mission was indeed completed quite nicely. Catherine and Carol Lockwood have already paid their money, and only the money Damon owes him is still unresolved. However, given his current state, it's unlikely he'll be able to go out and get the money for himself anytime soon.

Sue thought it was a good idea to lock him in the tomb for a while to calm him down; she hadn't had enough of Damon yet.

After Sue and Carol Lockwood emerged from the tomb, they nodded slightly to the crowd, then leaped up and disappeared.

The group looked at each other, but Sheila reacted quickly. She nudged Bonnie and immediately used magic to reseal the cave.

As for Damon still inside—there are countless others, of course. Caroline and the others were originally thinking about whether to stop him out of consideration for the fact that they were all 'ninjas'. Although Damon was not a ninja, the Akatsuki organization he belonged to was. However, after thinking about it again, they realized that Kakuzu hadn't said anything and had just left, so they decided not to interfere.

They had made many preparations to deal with potential crises, but things went surprisingly smoothly. The seal on the tomb was broken, Kakuzu went in and burned all the vampires inside to death, and Damon was also imprisoned in the tomb. It was a happy ending for everyone.

Even Sheila, who should have died from exhaustion of magic, was spared because she didn't use her magic as frequently as in the TV series. Of course, she was definitely weak, and judging from her current state, she probably won't be able to use magic again.

After coming up from the cave, everyone went home. As for the hole they dug, with Ricky Neller and Jessica Hamby watching over it, there wouldn't be any problems. Besides, the tomb was going to be renovated anyway, so it saved them the trouble of digging it again.

Everyone goes back to their own homes, each looking for his own mother.

After leaving the tomb in the form of Kakuzu, Su Shi did not rush to revert to his original appearance. Instead, he walked in a certain direction for a while and then saw Catherine wearing the Akatsuki uniform.

The black fiery cloud robe on Catherine exuded a unique and indescribable aura. Although she was not wearing a hat or headband, she was wearing a black face mask and had her collar turned up, which perfectly matched the style of the Akatsuki organization.

Moreover, only those who are particularly familiar with her or Elena can recognize her at a glance.

“You’ve done your job. Damon saw me burn Catherine to death with his own eyes, and everyone present knows. You should know as well,” Su said.

Catherine nodded: "Thank you. If Damon hadn't ruined my plans, I wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble."

"Damon is sealed in a tomb. If you want to save him, I can help you. Since you're a full member, I can give you a discount."

"No need, I'm satisfied with this result." Catherine shook her head coldly. Rescue Damon? Forget it, she didn't want to create trouble for herself, and besides, Damon was no longer of any use to her.

"Deep affection, yet utterly worthless," Su sighed.

Catherine paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "This seems to be the first time I've heard you comment on matters of the heart. Do you have someone you like?"

"Women will only slow down my earning speed," Su said calmly, brushing past Catherine and leaving.

In the TV series, there are two main events after the tomb sealing incident. One is Elena searching for her mother, and the other is that the tomb vampires, led by Pearl Anna, have escaped and are preparing to take over the town. In order to keep her secret, Catherine has to ask Elena's biological father, John, to lead a committee to find the magical mechanism left behind from back then and wipe out all the vampires.

Now that all the vampires in the tomb are dead, Catherine should not let John return for the time being. The storyline of Elena searching for her mother should also not be too tense for the time being. Elena is not weak, and she also has shadow clones protecting her in secret, so there is no need to worry for the time being.

The events that are about to happen on the side of evil forces are quite interesting and can enrich one's collection.

Night passed quietly.

The next day at noon, Su met Caroline and Bonnie at home in her own name. The two told her about what happened the night before, and Su also contacted Elena to tell her what was going on in town, and asked her if she needed any help.

With Damon's situation resolved and Bonnie safe, the two friends decided to go find Elena, but Elena politely declined.

Elena hadn't figured out how to face her mother yet. She just felt that if she had a clue, she should go and find it. She hadn't thought about what would happen after she found it, so she didn't want anyone else's help or involvement at this time. This was also why she declined Su's offer.

"If you guys are free these next few days, would you like to go out and have some fun with me?"

"Going out to play? Where to?" Caroline immediately became interested upon hearing this, and naturally took Su's arm with her little hand, asking curiously.

Su said with a smile, "The world is full of wonders. If you stay in town, you'll only see some vampires and werewolves. I'm going to take you to see other supernatural beings. Caroline, your chakra refining technique is almost perfect now. I'll teach you a few suitable ninjutsu this time."

“Bonnie, now that your witch powers have officially awakened, you have begun to learn magic and witchcraft. If you are lucky, you may encounter other types of wizards outside, and it will be beneficial to learn from each other.”

"You will inevitably come into contact with more supernatural beings in the future, so this trip is a good opportunity to broaden your horizons."

Needless to say, even without the reason of ninjutsu, Caroline couldn't wait to go out and play with the Su family. Besides, although Caroline is a popular figure in the town's school, Mysterious Waterfall Town is still a small place after all, and she doesn't really have much experience.

Bonnie originally didn't plan to go, wanting to calm down and study magic properly. Besides, she knew what was going on between Caroline and Sue, so she naturally didn't want to be a third wheel.

But the prospect of meeting other witches was appealing to her, and after everything that had happened, Bonnie didn't think she could go back to her ordinary life. She felt it would be good to broaden her horizons, so she decided to go back and talk to her grandmother Sheila before making a decision.

Chapter 455 The Murderer: Ghost or Wax Figure?

In a small town café, the afternoon sun shone through the window onto Su Shi. The afternoon was so peaceful and tranquil that it seemed to soften even the roughest and hardest soul, making it clearer and gentler. Past sorrows and griefs seemed to turn into shards of jade in the warm and gentle afternoon, drifting away with the wind.

Mr. Su sat there, drinking coffee and gazing at the street scene outside the window. It seemed that he had left his worries behind, stripped of all the glitz and glamour. His calm and composed demeanor made him appear even more simple and pure.

Well, the above is just the artistic fantasy of a girl in love with Su in the coffee shop. In reality, Su was simply daydreaming, or rather, spacing out, while waiting for Caroline and Bonnie to return from their investigation.

The Su family knew perfectly well what cases had occurred in this town, what cases would follow, and who had instigated them.

However, since the purpose of this trip is to broaden Caroline and Bonnie's horizons, it would be pointless to tell them the answer directly. In any case, the result will not have any impact. Letting them investigate the process themselves will satisfy their sense of accomplishment, broaden their horizons, and most importantly, train their intelligence gathering skills.

As a ninja, intelligence gathering is the most important skill.

Not long after, Caroline and Bonnie returned, and their investigation results did not disappoint the Su family.

Not long ago, a wealthy man in this small town died under mysterious circumstances. It is said that he bought a cursed sports car. This sports car is very famous, but every owner who has owned it has died a violent death.

The tycoon died after crashing into the windshield of his car. Only one of his friends was present at the scene, and he has now been detained as a suspect.

He's the prime suspect!

However, the investigation revealed that he had no motive for the crime, and the results of the on-site investigation were insufficient to prove that he was the murderer.

"What do you think?" Su asked the two of them.

Caroline shook her head without speaking, while Bonnie frowned and said, "It shouldn't be him."

"What's the reason?"

“I sensed him, and although it may not be accurate or complete, it shouldn’t be him. Besides, this case is so strange, and you specifically brought us here to investigate, which is enough to show that this incident is not normal.”

Bonnie's analysis was reasonable and well-founded, and Su nodded: "Did you find anything else?"

Bonnie nodded: "On the way back, I heard that another murder case has occurred. According to eyewitnesses, the murderer is President Linkin Park."

“That’s ridiculous,” Caroline chimed in. “Even if it were a supernatural event, and a ghost were to kill someone, it couldn’t possibly be Lin Ken, right? To put it another way, even if it were Lin Ken’s ghost, based on the supernatural knowledge you taught us on the way here, it couldn’t possibly appear here and kill someone who has nothing to do with him.”

Bonnie nodded: "Ghosts should only cause trouble in familiar places, and ghosts need to attach themselves to corpses and their belongings from their lifetime. Lin Ken could not have been buried here, nor could any of Lin Ken's belongings be here."

This time, when Su left Mysterious Waterfall Town, he did not choose to use the Flying Thunder God Technique for teleportation, but instead specially bought a four-seater sports car as his means of transportation.

Firstly, he wanted to relive the feeling of his past road trips. Secondly, it was inconvenient to travel without a car, and since he could easily throw the car into another dimension and teleport people along if the journey was long, it wouldn't have any impact or trouble.

Su took a sip of coffee and asked with a smile, "So what are your conclusions and the direction of your next investigation?"

Bonnie and Caroline exchanged a glance and remained silent. Not long ago, they were just ordinary high school students. Although they now had their own abilities, they were complete novices when it came to investigating supernatural events. In the current situation, they could only describe it in four words—completely clueless!

Su smiled and changed the subject: "Do you know any fun places to visit in this town?"

Bonnie shook her head. Caroline thought for a moment and said, "I think I saw a celebrity wax museum. It looked pretty good. Shall we go take a look?"

Bonnie looked at Caroline in surprise. The two of them had been together the whole time, so how come she hadn't noticed any celebrity wax museums? But—given Caroline's personality, it was normal for her to notice such places. Unlike herself, she hadn't come out here purely to broaden her horizons.

A wax museum is a great place for a date.

"You guys go ahead, I'll wander around." Bonnie wasn't going to be a third wheel, and besides, she was more interested in investigating the case than visiting the wax museum.

Caroline's eyes lit up, and she gave Bonnie a grateful look.

After leaving the coffee shop, the three split up. Bonnie wandered around continuing her investigation, while Caroline, arm in arm with Sue, went to the Madame Tussauds wax museum with great interest.

The wax museum didn't seem to be doing very well. Although the tickets were cheap, there weren't many visitors. Well, it seemed like there were only Sue and Caroline. There were no other visitors, not even staff. It was a completely free-for-all visit.

· ····Requesting flowers·· ······

Caroline was quite pleased with this.

The wax museum is very spacious and divided into multiple exhibition areas based on different eras and regions. Each exhibition area has a different environment and layout. Although the wax figures on display can be recognized at a glance, they are made to be lifelike and very realistic.

Caroline, arm in arm with Su, looked at each wax figure with great interest. When they encountered a wax figure they recognized or found interesting, they would take selfies with Su. Before long, the two stopped in front of a wax figure.

“This is Abraham Linken, it’s so lifelike…” Caroline looked closely at Linken’s wax figure and felt a chill for no reason. She hadn’t felt anything at first, but now she suddenly felt that the quiet and dimly lit wax museum was a bit cold and eerie, and the more she thought about it, the stronger the feeling became.

.... ... 0

"Wait... Lin Ken???" Caroline instinctively grabbed Su's arm with both hands, suddenly realizing an absurd era.

In the previous case, witnesses said the murderer might be Lin Ken. Caroline and Bonnie initially thought it was impossible, but what if the killer wasn't Lin Ken's ghost, but... a wax figure?

Wax figures murder?

Caroline grew increasingly frightened. Although she knew that Su was right beside her and that she was in no danger, she couldn't control her fear and pulled Su away from the wax figure.

Knowing full well what was going on, Su asked, "What's wrong?"

Caroline shook her head and whispered, "You... do you think this wax figure might be related to that case?"

"This is just an ordinary wax figure."

"Really?"

"real."

“Okay, but I still feel something’s off.” Caroline trusted Sue’s judgment, but that strange feeling wouldn’t go away.

Some people say that Lin Ken killed someone, but it couldn't be a ghost. Then there just happens to be a wax figure here that fits the criteria. Although it may be a coincidence, isn't this kind of coincidence too coincidental?
