Devil in Marvel

In room 404 of a hotel in San Antonio, Texas, the United States, five men and two women gathered in a room of less than 70 square meters.

This made the lobby manager of the hotel wonder whether these people were doing those things.

Therefore, the lobby manager was afraid of an accident and turned on the "monitoring" of room 404.

But what made the lobby manager anxious was that the "monitoring" in room 404 suddenly broke down today, and he couldn't see what the people inside were doing at all.

At this time, in room 404 of the hotel, there are 5 men and 2 women: Coleson, a model worker from S.H.I.E.L.D. Ward, Sharon Carter, who became a field agent as he wished, and two other agents who are not even worthy of their names, are agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Of course, they are not gathering people to take drugs as the lobby manager of the hotel thinks, but because the S.H.I.E.L.D. Bureau does not have a station in San Antonio, and they opened room 404 of this hotel for the convenience of the mission.

Some documents and photos were scattered on the only large bed in the room.

Coulson picked up a few photos, looked at the people in suits and leather shoes on the photos, shook his head and sighed: "I really can't see that these so-called celebrities in various countries all believe in Satan in private..."

"Scumbag."

Coulson looked helplessly at Ward who had stolen his lines.

Seeing him looking over, Ward hugged his shoulders and shrugged at him, and said with a smile, "This kind of thing is perfectly normal. People who are more glamorous on the outside often have some dark things growing in their hearts."

Picking up a photo of a senior official of a small country and showing it to everyone in the room, Ward said with a smile: "However, I think that in this regard, we in the United States have done a good job, at least no one will believe in some shit Satan .”

Except for the two extras who smiled face-to-face, the others didn't say anything.

Even the sensible man Coulson thought to himself: That's because they were almost sent to meet Satan by a demon.

"Okay, Ward." Coulson put down the photo, looked at Rowling, and asked, "Ms. Rowling, I want to confirm what happened in the small town of Salem, after all, only you and your wife were here There. Although we have all read the information you provided, I still want to hear you explain what happened in detail, and I hope you don't mind."

"It's okay, this is what I should do." Rowling shook her head, and then fell silent.

Her husband Ed looked at her worriedly, reached out and grabbed her arm, and said with concern: "Rowling, if you really don't want to remember, then forget it, don't force yourself."

Rowling shook her head at her husband, indicating that it was okay, and then looked around at the crowd who were quietly waiting for her to speak. Then Rowling said slowly: "At that time, my husband and I were tracking down a man who used weird witchcraft to manipulate and hurt others. A witch. The two of us followed the clues she left behind, all the way to the small town of Salem, and then..."

Rowling paused, and continued: "By the time we found her, she was already dead. She committed suicide or sacrificed herself together with 31 other women in the only opera house in the town."

Having said that, Rowling stopped again, with a look of fear in her eyes, followed by another silence.

Rowling was silent for a while before continuing: "I touched a corpse, and through my unique ability, I saw that they knelt down to someone on the stage of the opera house before committing suicide, shouting My Lord Satan and Lucifer."

Judging from the narration, it may be nothing, but for Rowling who has psychic ability, it is completely different.

Rowling's psychic ability allows her to enter a certain period of time and experience everything the person has experienced, and all of this is not controlled by herself, she is a passive experience.

Not only the physical feeling, but also the mentality of the person involved will be experienced together.

If it wasn't for Rowling's firm mind and a few more experiences, she might have collapsed and gone crazy.

Recalling this experience, Rowling seemed to still hear the evil whispers at that time, smiled bitterly, and then said: "When I wanted to see the figure on the stage clearly, a bewitching voice appeared in my mind , It wants me to sacrifice my soul to Satan like those poor women. Under this sound, I almost stabbed myself in the eye with a hairpin on my head. Fortunately, Ed and a police officer present pressed me to the ground , subdued me, so that I can still chat with you here."

"We already know all of this." Coulson nodded, and continued: "Then, is that figure on the stage the missing Heidi Laloquete Hawthorne in the small town of Salem?"

Rowling nodded first, then shook her head, hesitated for a while before saying: "I didn't see her face clearly, and I'm not very sure. The information I gave you is just speculation, because these people who committed suicide The women are all descended from the original Salem village in 1636, and the only one left, Heidi Hawthorne, is missing, so we're going to make a wild guess."

At this time, after listening for a long time, Sharon Carter found a problem, but asked Coulson: "Did these people have any intersections before? Did they all live in the town?"

"No, except for the seven residents of Salem Town, the others were scattered all over the place, but they came to Salem Town on the same day as if they had made an appointment, and most of them had no interaction with each other." Rowling thought for a while. , added: "These 7 women are all surnamed Hawthorne, which is the surname of the village of Salem in the last century. Three of them are witches with some abilities, and the others should all be ordinary people."

Sharon Carter asked: "Did all the women in the descendants of the original Salem village come?"

"We don't know about this. The subsequent investigations were all carried out by your S.H.I.E.L.D."

Sharon Carter still wanted to speak, but saw the officer beside her, Coulson, looking at her with a smile on his face.

Coughing awkwardly, Sharon Carter took a step back, stood up blankly, and signaled that she would not interrupt.

Coulson glanced at her, the good old man didn't care about the impatient little girl's overreach, but just as he opened his mouth, Ward asked first: "It is mentioned in the materials that Salem Village was held in 1636. Is there any connection between the vigorous burning of witches and the current incident?"

Rowling nodded and said: "Because the people at the bottom of that era had very difficult lives, high taxes, and natural and man-made disasters, many people couldn't live longer. It may be that they are insensitive to God and despaired, and many people began to believe in God." and some women in Salem Village were even more fanatical. Perhaps they really communicated with Satan and obtained some evil witchcraft, which aroused the fear of some local people, so they launched a campaign against Salem Village back then. massacre."

No one asked why women were more fanatical. Unlike modern society, women's status was very low in that era, and of course women were the most oppressed.

In modern times, the status of women in many countries has been promoted and they have received equal treatment. In some countries, women even quickly...

Rowling picked up a file from the bed that Sharon Carter had spread out, opened it, and said to the crowd: "According to our couple's speculation, perhaps, what Satan, who believed in Salem Village, planned to do in those days, changed the The descendants of the survivors gathered in the present town of Salem to carry out this sacrifice. And we searched for the missing Heidi Hawthorne, but unexpectedly discovered that another group of Satan believers began to attack Texas states gathered."

"We are not sure what they want to do now, but judging from the current situation, they did not come here to sacrifice this time, but have other purposes."

Coulson looked around, very good, no one interrupted this time.

Coulson nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Thank you, Ms. Rowling, for explaining to us. The next step is our job."

Since the Warrens were recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D., S.H.I.E.L.D. has been consulting them and helping them. This is the first time they have seen S.H.I.E.L.D. working. Out of curiosity, Ed asked: "Mr. , what are you going to do?"

Coulson smiled at him, picked up all the photos, separated them one by one and put them on the bed, and said with a smile: "Since these people are all ordinary people, we might as well start with them."

Ward scanned all the photos on the bed, frowned and asked, "So, which one do you want to pick?"

Coulson said with a smile: "Be more democratic, let's vote together."
