Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 1049 One hundred and sixteen. The long secret road

   Chapter 1049 One hundred and sixteen. Long secret passage

  Lu Li's eyes fell on this mottled and delicate oil painting itself again.

  The monster occupied the manor house and broke into and destroyed it with the players. The giant oil painting was unharmed. No doubt luck.

   Lifting the oil lamp, the rough texture and fading make the oil painting full of history.

"Who are you?"

  Claire asked the voice in the painting, but approached without getting a response.

   "Please don't come here..."

   The cowardly voice sounded again, and Claire stopped temporarily.

   "We are from Giant Tree Academy." Lu Li replied.

   After the painting, the female voice exclaimed: "Giant tree... We have taken back Midnight City?"

  Lu Li waited for Claire to answer "Almost so", but she didn't say anything, so she replied: "It's doing it."

   "That's great...you guys are back...the disaster came, I only had time to hide here, it's been a long time..."

   "You've been kept inside?"

  Lu Li observed the bay window next to the giant oil painting, and estimated the space behind the oil painting from the thickness of the wall: you can curl up and hide in a person who is not too burly, that's all.

   And nearly four months have passed since humans hid underground because of the Dark Ages.

"Yes... Monsters took over the manor after the people left. They didn't see me hiding here, and a long time passed... Not long ago I heard loud explosions and screams outside, then footsteps sounded outside, I I was so scared that I didn't dare to come out until you brought the token."

   The gentle female voice who spoke slowly had a hint of urgency: "Where did you find it?"

   "In the barrels of the cellar."

   "The barrel...?"

  The woman in the fresco doesn't know that there is blood in the barrel, and what that means, pay attention to what she cares more about: "Ole... Do you know my Orle?"

   Lu Li's back of the melancholy and exhausted departure appeared in Lu Li's mind.

   "Aure Lorenzo?"

   "Yes, my boy...you know him? Is he okay? Is he here too?"

  Lu Li was unable to answer the mother's anxious question, summoned the merchant Anthony, and asked again, "Can I contact Ole Lorenzo."

   The merchant's answer did not change.

"cannot."

  Death is only the most pessimistic prediction, and it is still possible that Ole Lorenzo or Margarita are still alive.

   "Oh no...he'll be fine right...right?"

   "We'll help you out first."

  Lu Li approached the huge oil painting, confirming the initial speculation. After painting, it is not a professional shelter, but a safe for storing wealth or secret documents. But no matter whether it is moved or moved, the frame cannot be moved.

"Let me do it."

  Claire took over from Lu Li, grabbing both ends of the frame with both hands.

  Whoa——

  Cracks spread on the wall, and the dust fell with the rubble. Claire used brute force to remove the metal picture frame embedded in the wall.

  The dim butter lamp sprinkled into the space behind the mural.

   The complete skeleton of a floral dress pajamas is curled up over the scattered gold coins and shillings.

   "So I've already..."

   The suddenly lost voice slowly dissipated as the truth was revealed.

   After returning to silence, Lu Li looked at Claire: "You already knew that?"

  Claire nodded in response.

  Because of Ole Lorenzo, Lu Li planned to collect her body and bury her bones.

   "Lu Li... that gold coin of Emperor Gudmelin... take it with you."

  Will Ken's old whisper sounded again, this time pointing to an exquisite gold coin with a profile carved in the gold coin pile.

  Lu Li put away the gold coins as suggested by Will Ken, Claire was fiddling with the scattered books with the tip of her shoe, but didn't find it.

  Two minutes later, Lu Li came to the backyard of the manor holding a bulging blanket in the curiosity of the contestants who had not left the mansion to search for weirdness and materials.

  Claire stopped Lu Li from digging a hole in the ash-covered dirt and overturned a landscape rock weighing several thousand pounds.

The    depression was just enough to hold the skeletons.

  Lu Li put the blanket wrapped around the skeleton into the pit, Claire stepped on the edge to bury the pit, and then erected a simple tombstone with the name on the lower right corner of the giant oil painting.

  【Marlene Lorenzo】

   After doing this, they returned to the wine cellar, walked across the **** red carpet, and entered the red brick secret passage.

  The entrance to the dark passage closes automatically shortly after they leave.

  The narrow secret passage made it impossible for them to walk side by side. The cramped, turbid, deadly silence, and the depression brought by the dark secret passage only illuminated by oil lamps made it difficult to suppress their thoughts.

  For example, the darkness in the depths of the secret passage rushes out of the monster, for example, the secret passage is narrowing and squeezing.

  Claire, who was quietly walking in front, seemed to be hiding a secret.

Will Ken's reminder planted seeds for Lu Li's heart - perhaps some kind of cobweb centered on Lu Li is weaving, and a vortex is forming; perhaps what we encounter now is the delirium of the Emerald Dream; perhaps everything is just before death after entering **** phantom-

  In any case, fantasies are meaningless because there is no solid memory pointing to them.

   This secret passage is long enough, as it leads straight from the outskirts to the estate of Earl Hunter. Even if the manor was not in the center of the city, it was in Midnight City—a corridor 8 or 9 miles in length was incredible, especially under Midnight City.

   It's hard not to speculate on whether the Earl of Hunter was digging the secret passage for any purpose - it couldn't really be just to contact his family.

   Now that Earl Hunter and the city of Midnight are hidden underground, this abandoned secret passage is cheap for Lu Li and Claire, leading them to avoid the weirdness on the ground and quickly approach the weird lair.

   But a collapse lay ahead of them.

  Claire didn't use her brute force and motioned to Lu Li, "You'll need your help now."

   refers to those worms.

  The worms quickly came from the ground, wriggling and swallowing the collapsed soil layer, while expanding the width of the tunnel.

   Lu Li and Claire followed. At some point, Claire's bandaged palm pressed against the shaking rock wall.

   "We were found."

   She motioned for Lu Li to follow the worm away, and when she was far enough away, tremors and dust rushed from behind like waves of dust.

  Claire collapsed the corridor again, and the existence on the ground couldn't find anything——and also blocked their retreat.

   The length of the collapsed tunnel is nearly two miles, and this desperate distance only takes dozens of minutes for the worms to respond to the call.

   The narrow passage resurfaced, and Lu Li let the worm hide underground and wait.

   Afterwards, the secret passage was no longer blocked. When the sloping stone steps showed the edge of the dim butter lamp, it meant that they were approaching their destination.

   "The Viscount may not be strong. What can really cause trouble is the number of servants and slaves that come in frantically, so we have to sneak into the manor and get close enough to it."

  Claire opened his stomach bag, took out two pairs of potions and distributed one to Lu Li: "Remember the alienation potion? This is the key to us being able to approach the Viscount."

   Saying that, Claire pointed to the smaller bottle of the paired potion.

   "Don't worry, this time I improved the potion and prepared the antidote."
