Dean sighed: We don't want to either.
Late at night.
Sam gently opened the door and walked out quietly. He looked around to make sure there was no one in the corridor, and then walked quickly to the parking lot.
Bai Haorui actually never fell asleep. He heard the sound of the door opening, quietly walked to the window, lifted a corner of the curtain, and looked out.
Under the moonlight, Sam walked to the darkest corner of the parking lot. He looked left and right again, and after confirming that no one was there, he took out a small glass flask from his pocket. It contained a dark red, viscous liquid, which glowed strangely in the moonlight.
Sam hesitated for a moment, holding the flask with his fingers so tightly that his knuckles turned white. Then he suddenly uncorked the bottle and drank it all in one gulp. His body trembled suddenly, and his face showed a twisted expression of pain and satisfaction. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and threw the empty flask into the trash can next to him.
Bai Haorui was behind the curtain and sighed softly.
Bai Haorui: Sam, what are you doing? Do you know that you are heading towards the abyss step by step?
He decided to find time to have a good chat with Sam.
At the same time, the window of Jimmy's room was gently pushed open. Jimmy climbed out of the window and ran into the darkness without looking back. His steps were fast, with endless longing and longing for his family.
A few minutes later, Sam returned to the room.
Sam slammed open the door of Dean: Dean! Dean! Get up!
Dean drowsily sat up from the bed and rubbed his eyes.
Dean: What's wrong? Is it on fire?
Sam: Jimmy ran away!
Dean: I jumped up all of a sudden, angry and anxious: What?!
He grabbed his coat and paced back and forth in the room.
Dean: Isn't it funny? The big prison guard, Jimmy McMurk, slipped away from under your nose?
Sam shrugged, his tone a little unnatural: It was indeed funny.
Dean stared at him: What were you doing at that time?
Sam: I'm going to buy a Coke.
Dean raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully: Is it a refreshing Coke?
At this moment, Bai Haorui walked into the room.
Bai Haorui: Okay, stop arguing. I saw him running eastward, probably going home. We still have time to chase him.
Sam immediately picked up his coat: Can you leave?
(one year ago)
In the kitchen of Jimmy's home, the water in the pot was boiling, emitting white steam. Amelia stood by the sink to put away the tableware, and the dishes collided with each other, making a crisp sound.
Amelia: Jimmy, the water is boiling.
Jimmy didn't answer. He stood by the stove, looking at the boiling water with empty eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
Suddenly, he stretched out his right hand and plunged his whole hand into the scalding boiling water.
Amelia screamed in horror and rushed over: Jimmy! What are you doing!
She wanted to pull him out, but couldn't.
Jimmy slowly took out his hand. There were no signs of burns on his hands, the skin was intact, and there was not even a red mark.
Jimmy said calmly: It's okay, I'm okay.
Amelia burst into tears: Jimmy! What's wrong with you? Are you crazy?
Jimmy: He asked me to do this.
Amelia: Who asked you to do it?
A pious smile appeared on Jimmy's face: Castiel. To show my faith. Look, I'm fine. It's a miracle. This is God blessing me.
Amelia looked at Jimmy blankly: Who is Castiel?
The Impala was driving on a country road. Outside the window was the endless cornfield. The wind blew and the corn leaves made a "rustling" sound. Dean complained while driving.
Dean: Damn Jimmy. If I had known earlier, I would have locked him in the bathroom. Now, we have to chase him again.
Bai Haorui was sitting in the passenger seat, closing his eyes to relax, tapping his knees unconsciously with his fingers.
Suddenly, the air in the back seat was distorted. A woman appeared out of thin air in the back seat. She was wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans, and a pair of white sneakers. Her skin was fair and her eyes were blue, as clear as the sky. She had a faint smile on her face, looking gentle and beautiful.
Dean was startled, turned the steering wheel suddenly, and the Impala almost drove into a ditch.
Dean patted his chest in shock: Oh my God! Can't you just call me first?!
Anna smiled and said: I like the feeling of surprise. Your expression looks great now.
Dean cleared his throat: Well... now is not the time to talk about this.
Anna: You let Jimmy run away?
Dean pointed at Sam: Ask this big guy. He is responsible for guarding.
Bai Haorui slowly opened his eyes, turned his head and looked at Anna, with a faint smile on his lips.
Bai Haorui: Anna, long time no see. Why are you still so beautiful?
Anna smiled: Not bad, at least he was not killed. But you, Haorui, your strength has become much stronger. I can feel the anger on your body from across the street. It seems that you have improved a lot.
Bai Haorui: Hehe, small progress, small progress.
Anna put away his smile and his expression became solemn: Okay, let's get down to business. It's Cass. He was sent home. To be more precise, he was dragged back.
Sam: Reply to Heaven? Isn't that a good thing?
Anna shook his head, his eyes full of solemnity: No. This is a very bad thing. Very painful, very bad. Heaven will give the betrayer the cruelest punishment. They will tie you to a cross. They will burn your soul with holy light, over and over again, until you forget who you are. They will wash away your memory, twist your mind, and turn you into an emotionless war machine again, only knowing how to execute the orders of Heaven.
Dean frowned: He must have pissed someone off. Cass said he had something important to tell me. Do you know what it is?
Anna: I don't know. But no matter what it is, it is very important and can change the direction of the entire Apocalypse. You must find out. This is the only chance to stop Apocalypse.
She looked at Sam, looked at him sharply, and frowned slightly. She could clearly feel the strong demonic aura on Sam, like a layer of black mist, wrapping around his body, getting thicker and thicker.
Anna: Sam... You look... different.
Sam smiled unnaturally: I? I don't know. I cut my hair?
Anna shook his head: I'm not talking about that. The devil's aura in you is getting stronger and stronger!
Sam's expression suddenly changed. He avoided Anna's gaze and looked out the window, looking a little unnatural.
Sam: I don't know what you are talking about.
Anna sighed: You will regret it.
She turned her head and looked at Bai Haorui, her expression becoming more solemn.
Anna: Hell will definitely take action, so be careful. They know that Cass has left Jimmy's body, and they will definitely send many People come to arrest Jimmy and ask for the whereabouts of Cass or the information Jimmy knows. Moreover, I think their target is not just Jimmy.
Bai Haorui's eyes are cold: It doesn't matter, I'm not easy to deal with now either.
Anna: Anyway, you have to be careful, they are very cunning. This time they will definitely come out in full force to catch Jimmy.
Dean patted the steering wheel: It's okay, come one and let's kill a pair!
Bai Haorui's tone was cold: It saves me having to go find them one by one. I'll kill as many as they come.
Anna smiled, then his body gradually became transparent and disappeared into the air.
(one year ago)
Amelia was sitting on the sofa, holding a bottle of antidepressants in her hand, tears streaming down her face. Her eyes were red and swollen, her face was pale, and she looked haggard.
Amelia looked at Jimmy, his voice choked with sobs: Take the medicine, Jimmy. Please. Go see a doctor.
Jimmy turned his back to her and stood by the window: I'm not sick.
The moonlight shone on his body, leaving a lonely and stiff back.
Amelia: Jimmy, take the medicine. I know this is difficult to understand...
Jimmy interrupted her: But he chose me. Castiel angel. He has told me many times, Ames. Hey, you believe God, right?
Amelia: What's the problem? Of course I believe it.
Jimmy: Then do you also believe in angels?
Amelia: Yes, Jimmy.
Jimmy: So why is it so hard for you to believe they are talking to me?
Amelia: Jimmy, you are a radio advertising salesman. Your daily job is to sell advertising, not to save the world.
Jimmy: No, he said that I am special and it is determined by my bloodline.
Amelia: What do you mean by "this is determined by your bloodline"? Huh?
Jimmy: He didn't say. He just said that God chose me to fulfill a higher mission.
Amelia: What to do?
Jimmy: This is God's will. It's not my place to question. Hey, come here. This is a blessing. This is the most important thing that has ever happened to me.
Amelia cried even harder: I thought we were the most important thing that happened to you.
Jimmy: You must have faith.
Amelia: Jimmy... You scared me. The way you look now makes me feel strange.
Jimmy: God will bless us.
Amelia: If you don't take medicine and don't seek help... then I will take Claire to my mother's house tomorrow.
Jimmy said nothing. He walked outside the door alone and looked up at the dark sky. The stars were twinkling in the sky, like countless pairs of indifferent eyes.
Jimmy clasped his hands together and prayed devoutly, with a cry in his voice: I'm about to lose my family. If you don't tell me what to do, please, Castiel, talk to me. What do you want me to do? I'm willing to do anything.
A soft white light fell from the sky and enveloped Jimmy. He closed his eyes, with an expression of relief on his face.
Jimmy said softly: Yes, I understand. As long as my family is safe, I will do anything. So... okay.
Claire was wearing pink pajamas, holding Teddy bear, rubbing his eyes and walking out: Dad?
Jimmy slowly turned around. His eyes turned pure blue without any emotion, like two bottomless lakes.
Castiel's tone was cold and without any fluctuation: I am not your father.
He turned around and left, never looking back. Claire stood there blankly, hugging Teddy Bear, and cried loudly.
The Impala parked on the street in front of Jimmy's house. It was an ordinary small single-family house with white walls, a red roof, and some flowers and plants planted in the yard. It looked warm and peaceful.
Bai Haorui got out of the car first. He closed his eyes, Divine Sense spread out, and explored the situation around the house.
Bai Haorui opened his eyes and lowered his voice: There is one in the bushes on the left, and one behind the trash can on the right. They are low-level demons, keeping sentry. Their aura is very weak, and they should be responsible for surveillance.
He made a gesture to Dean and Sam, and then quickly made a seal with his hands. Two yellow Evil-Suppressing Talisman flew out from his fingertips, with a sound of breaking through the air, and accurately attached to the foreheads of the two demons.
The two demons froze on the spot for an instant, the red light in their eyes extinguished, and they remained in their original posture, motionless, like two statues.
Dean and Sam quickly rushed forward and used demon daggers to kill the immobile demon. Dean turned back and gave a thumbs up to Bai Haorui.
Dean: Awesome, brother.
Bai Haorui shrugged: No big deal. Let's go.
Jimmy rushed into the house impatiently.
Jimmy shouted: Amelia! Claire!
Amelia walked out of the kitchen. She was wearing a blue apron and holding a spatula in her hand. Seeing Jimmy, she froze, and the spatula in her hand fell to the ground with a clang.
Amelia's voice trembled: We... we are no longer looking for you. We all thought you were dead.
Jimmy stood at the door, not daring to go forward: I'm fine.
Amelia turned to face the stairs and shouted: Claire, go back to your room!
Jimmy said eagerly: Can I take a look at her? Just one glance.
Amelia shook his head and shed tears: Oh... no. I'm not sure yet. It's been almost a year, you know? During this year, I have been worried about you every day and waited for you to come back every day. But you haven't even called me.
Jimmy: I know. My daughter must want to know that I am okay.
Jimmy took a deep breath: I was in a mental hospital before. I just wanted to adjust myself before seeing you.
Amelia: No phone, no...?
Jimmy: No. I know. You're right. I... I'm sorry. But it's over. I'm really fine.
Amelia: What does it mean?
Jimmy: I... I was so confused, Amelia. I was completely crazy. I thought God was calling me to do something, I thought it was important. But I was wrong. I really was an idiot. Heaven, Hell... None of this matters. The only thing that matters to me is you and Claire. I can't undo what I did, but I just want to go home now. I want to stay with you.
Amelia whispered: I don't know if I can do it. Not yet.
Jimmy: It doesn't matter. Whatever makes you feel comfortable. Maybe we can start with something small? For example... have a meal together?
During dinner, Claire sat next to Jimmy, hugging his arm tightly and refusing to let go for a moment. Her eyes were red, and she kept looking at Jimmy, for fear that he would suddenly disappear again.
Claire asked in a low voice: Dad... have you stopped praying?
Jimmy's tears instantly flowed down. He shook his head and touched his daughter's head.
Jimmy's voice was choked with sobs: No, honey. I don't think so.
Amelia looked at him: Why are you crying?
Jimmy wiped his tears and smiled: Because I am so happy. I finally went home.
In the living room, Bai Haorui, Dean and Sam stood by the window, observing the surrounding situation vigilantly. As the sun set, the golden sunlight shone in the yard, giving everything a golden halo. But the devil's aura in the air became stronger and stronger.
Bai Haorui suddenly frowned: something is wrong.
Dean: What's wrong?
Bai Haorui: The demonic aura in the air is getting stronger and stronger. And there is a very powerful demonic energy approaching quickly. The level is not low.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
"Ding dong--"
Bai Haorui whispered: Coming. This guy is already possessed.
He quietly walked up to Dean, touched Dean with his elbow, and gave him a look.
Amelia came over and opened the door. Standing outside the door was their neighbor Roger. Roger was a man in his forties, slightly fat, and always had a simple and honest smile on his face. But today, his smile seemed a little stiff, and his eyes were cold, without any warmth.
Roger: Hey, Ames. How are you?
Amelia: Very good.
Roger looked into the room: Did I see it wrong? I thought I saw your husband coming in half an hour ago?
Amelia: Yes, you read that right. But Roger, now is not the time...
When Roger saw Jimmy walking over, the smile on his face became even brighter.
Roger: Hey, he's here. What's wrong with you? We're worried to death.
Jimmy: It's a long story. But it's over. I'm fine.
Roger: Really? Can I have a word with you? Alone.
Jimmy: Of course. I'll get you a bottle of beer.
Roger: Great. Thank you.
Roger walked into the living room. He looked around and then looked at Jimmy.
Roger: Man, you scared a lot of people. We all thought you were dead.
Jimmy: I know, I know.
Roger: Seriously, what happened?
Jimmy: Honestly? It was the worst year of my life. You won't believe a word I said. But it's all better now. I swear.
The smile on Roger's face suddenly disappeared, and his tone was cold: Actually, no.
Jimmy: What does it mean?
Roger grinned, showing yellow teeth: I mean, I want to disembowel your daughter in front of you.
He rushed towards Claire and grabbed her arm. His eyes turned pure black and a ferocious smile appeared on his face.
Jimmy rushed over and shouted: What are you doing! Let her go! You are a devil!
Amelia didn't see clearly what happened, thinking that Jimmy was sick again, and shouted at Jimmy: Stop! Jimmy! Calm down!
Jimmy shouted anxiously to Amelia: Run! Amelia! Run!
Amelia was even more frightened when she saw him like this. She pulled Claire back: Don't come over! Roger is your best friend!
Jimmy: Roger is a devil! Don't cross this line!
Amelia screamed: Jimmy, I thought you were cured, but you are even worse!
Jimmy shouted in despair: I'm not crazy!!
Amelia: Stay away from us!
Jimmy: This is true! Claire! No! Run!
Dean shouted: Hey, friend!
Dean rushed forward, pulled out the demon dagger, and stabbed Roger hard in the chest. Roger couldn't dodge and was stabbed by the dagger. He let out a shrill scream and disappeared into a ball of black smoke.
At this moment, a female demon rushed out of the kitchen and pounced on Amelia. She was wearing the same apron as Amelia, with a weird smile on her face.
Sam: Get away!
Sam stretched out his hand, trying to control her with the power of the devil. But his power suddenly became very weak, his vision went dark, and he almost fainted.
The female demon sneered and hit Sam on the chest. Sam flew out like a rag doll and hit the wall hard with a muffled sound. He covered his chest and kept coughing, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
The female devil said sarcastically: Isn't it possible, Sam? It seems that your power is only that.
At this moment, Bai Haorui moved. He tapped his toes and rushed forward like a bolt of lightning, appearing in front of the female devil almost instantly.
He made a fist with his right hand and condensed the purple-gold True Gang cultivated in "Three Altars Body-Refining True Fire Art" into his fist. True Gang rotated on his fist, forming a small golden vortex. Then, a little red flame appeared on the fingertips, and the flame spread along True Gang, wrapping the entire fist in the light red True Fire.
"Bang!"
A punch hit the female devil's face firmly. The female devil's head was instantly smashed to pieces, and black blood and brains splashed all over the floor. Her body twitched, and then disappeared into a ball of black smoke.
Bai Haorui walked to Sam and stretched out his hand to pull him up. Sam looked pale and lowered his head, not daring to look into Bai Haorui's eyes.
Bai Haorui looked at him with complicated eyes. There was disappointment, sadness, and a trace of deep worry.
Looking at all this, Amelia finally believed what Jimmy said. She collapsed on the ground, trembling all over, and tears kept flowing down.
Everyone came behind the bushes outside the house, and Amelia and Claire hugged each other in shock. The night was already dark, and the surroundings were dark, with only the faint light of the street lamps in the distance.
Sam leaned against the wall, covering his chest with his hands, coughing constantly. His face was as pale as paper, and his lips had no trace of blood.
Dean walked to him and lowered his voice: You and that little bitch. What happened just now?
Sam: What?
Dean: You almost fainted when you killed a demon. You used to be able to deal with a dozen demons by yourself, but now you can't even deal with a third-rate demon?
Sam: I didn't faint. I was just a little dizzy.
Dean sighed and softened his tone: Whatever you say. The point is, you were strong enough to kill Alastair before. What about now? What happened to your magic power? It's good and bad. I don't want to quarrel with you, okay? I just... you scared me, brother.
Sam whispered: I scared myself too.
Bai Haorui stood aside, looking at Sam without saying anything. He could feel that the demonic power in Sam's body was becoming chaotic, like an out-of-control flood that could erupt at any time.
Amelia looked at Jimmy, his voice trembling: I'm sorry I didn't believe you before.
Sam looked at Jimmy at this time, with a cold tone: I'll tell you again. You are putting your family in danger. You must follow us.
