Salomon left the library and found a taxi in the town to go to Angel Bay, located outside.

When he got on the bus, Salomon made up a lie and chatted with the driver. He just didn't like socializing, and he would still cheat people when it was time to cheat. According to the taxi driver, he lived in this town since he was a child. The name of this town is very ordinary and has no scarce mineral resources. There is almost no way out except fishing. The grades of public high schools in the town are also very poor. Young people cannot find a way out and can only go to big cities to make a living.

In general, this town is just a microcosm of countless ordinary agricultural and fishery towns in the United States.

But Salomon still used the method of guiding the conversation to let the driver reveal more information unintentionally. He mentioned the Collins family intentionally or unintentionally. This made the dark-skinned mixed-race driver who lived in the town "since childhood", and according to him, the hostess of Angel Port was a heartthrob before he disappeared. She was a kind and beautiful woman. He had met Angelica Butchard when he was a child. He talked endlessly with that unique accent, and waved an arm while talking. If he had not had to hold the steering wheel, he would dance.

"Hey, brother, I told you that I have seen her, just when I was a child. Damn, I have never seen such a beautiful woman. I am still the protagonist of Chunmeng. Don't tell my wife about this. Are you questioning me? I tell you, as long as you see her, you won't ask that. I will definitely not forget her appearance in a red dress. I tell you that you will never see such a beauty when you go to any big city. Even if you are in New York and Los Angeles, I promise no woman can look better than her..."

Salomon had extremely difficult for the driver to organize some information from his rhythmic words. The general meaning was that after Angelica Butchard disappeared, the Corinthian family's Port Corinth once again occupied the dominance of the fishery in the town. No one knew where Angelica Butchard went. Every elderly man in the town missed the woman who was as unpredictable as a dream.

"Have you heard of where Angelica Butchard disappeared?" Salomon asked casually, "I think the police will try their best to find such taxpayers, right?"

"I don't know either." The driver shrugged his shoulders. "It is said that the Butchard family suddenly appeared and disappeared suddenly, which is reasonable."

"Yes, it's very reasonable..." Salomon looked out the car window with worry. The vehicle slowly drove into Angel Port. Since Angelic Butchard disappeared, the situation has deteriorated and has frequently occupied resources by Corinth Harbor. Fishermen have refused to sell the catch to Angel Port. The former canning factory has been dilapidated, and there are still decaying fishing boats and nets in the safe haven. Only hungry seagulls will visit here. They stand on wooden stakes that extend into the sea, trying to pick up some rotten fish to eat.

Salomon felt that the thin net made of black silk thread extended from the Corinthian family and enveloped the entire town, just like the fine net used when catching sardines, fishing everything that could not pass through the mesh, such as the police and the media. If Salomon had not found enough suspicious points and clues in the library's old paper pile, no one would have thought that the Corinthian family, which seemed to provide economic sources for the town, would have such deep darkness.

Since 1972, there have always been murders in the town, but police investigations and media reports have always given up halfway and closed the case. At first, some people were interested in mentioning the tragic situation of the bodies, but later, no one was interested in the victims who were bitten by their throats.

Salomon spent a lot of money to hire the driver and asked him to take him around the town for a whole day until late at night. After they made an appointment to see each other the next day, Salomon opened the portal in an uninhabited corner and returned to the headquarters of Kama Taj. Kama Taj is not at night now, but Salomon still fell asleep. It was too much trouble to investigate and search for useful clues from it.

When he woke up, he began to prepare for things that the vampire needs to prepare, such as silver, and some specific spell casting materials. After Salomon hurriedly finished it and didn't know which of the three meals it was, he opened the portal again and returned to Port Corinth.

There, the driver was waiting for him.

"Colin Manor." Salomon's first sentence was said after the passenger seat. His face was cold and hard, as if he was mentally prepared. In fact, he planned to ask the witch's clues from Barnabas Collins, and if necessary, he would clear the vampire by the way.

"They are cursed." Perhaps because Salomon spent a lot of money, the driver didn't want Salomon to go to the gloomy place. Even though the Corinthians supported many people in the town, they were still not popular.

"It's okay." Salomon murmured, "I went to find them just for the sake of curses."

"Willie! Stop drinking! You bald drunkard without a single hair! Clean the hall quickly! Didn't you hear it!" Caroline Stoddard stood on the wide steps at one end of the living room and shouted. Even during the day, the thick black wool curtains in the living room were still tightly pulled, with only a few rays of light coming in, and the rest of the living room was still immersed in the shadows. Caroline is a girl with a graceful figure, slightly plump, and even time has not stayed on her body for long. At middle age, she has not distorted her figure at all, and still has an extremely charming buttocks.

There was no reason for her standing on the steps and yelling. Her younger brother David Collins, who had a little autism, dropped the food on the carpet. Under her roar, David, with black curly hair, couldn't help but tremble, and the curly hair on his forehead trembled.

"Calm down, Caroline." A silver-haired woman sitting on the sofa moved the pawn one step and said. Although she was already very old, her thinking and movements were still quick. She said, "Don't make David too nervous. Also, Willie is old, be considerate of his slow movements."

"You still don't want me to transform you into a vampire. I think you have experienced the consequences of aging, Elizabeth." Sitting on the sofa opposite was a pale man, with short black hair and a classic 18th-century British man's clothing. His black jacket was inlaid with many gems of different colors, both on the cuffs and on the hem of the clothes, and a white lace bow tie on his neck. He moved the chess pieces after a little thought. He said, "We have reconstructed the Corinthian family. Look at everything in this living room, after that fire, these exquisite sculptures and collections are all obtained by you, and this one."

He pointed to the crystal chandelier above his head, "I hope you can keep watching and witness the Corinthians move back into glory."

"Aging is the joy of life, which you can't understand. I'm already very tired, so I'll leave the rest to Caroline and David." Age did not affect Elizabeth's elegance, she said: "Barnabass, it's time for you to leave."

"Willie! Willie! Where are you?" Caroline raised her voice when she saw that Willie did not appear in front of her.

Then the sound of rushing footsteps came, and the door of the hall suddenly opened.

Willie, who had no hair on his head, ran in panting, "Master...huh,huh,huh..."

"Relax, relax." Barnabass picked up a glass with his palms with sharp nails. He stood up and walked towards Willy and handed him the cup. "Drink, Willy, tell me what happened?"

"Someone... is here..." Willie drank the sparkling wine in one sip, "Himmer..."

"Is it the police? Or the newspaper?" Barnabas turned around and stopped paying attention to Willy. He looked at Elizabeth, "I promise I've solved it all."

"No, it's not the police, nor the newspaper!" Willie said with a wide eyes and a look of horror. "He looks like a... a wizard!"
