Nikolai and the team were stunned for a few seconds at the sight before them. After a stretch of silence, Maksim said slowly, "I think our mission is over."
Nikolai cleared his throat. "All right, team. Let's spread out and clean the scene. The police will come to search the house. It would be better if they do not find any items or documents related to supernatural activities. Clean the magic circle thoroughly. Do not leave any DNA belonging to those two. Anna, come upstairs with me."
With that, he headed upstairs, Anna in tow.
Half an hour later, Nikolai and Anna returned downstairs, having gathered all documents connected to supernatural activities. Maksim, Andrey, and Tatyana had already cleared the ground floor. The blood, the magic circle, and the ashes were gone. No ordinary person would believe that anyone had died there.
The team packed all the evidence into several bags and boarded the car. No one was in the mood to speak.
