Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 1404 Forty-six. Behind the scene

  Chapter 1404 Forty-six. Behind the scene

  The Immortal Giant stranded on the beach is like a giant whale.

  Especially standing at its feet, you can feel small and lonely.

  The beach was scattered with traces of luggage and rescue. The hemp rope tied to the ship's side and hanging into the shallows was the only way for Lu Li to return to the deck.

   Picking up the hemp rope floating with the waves, Lu Li said to Kate who was standing in the shallows, "You can't get up."

"you help me."

"I can not do it."

   During the two days since the Immortal Giant left and returned, Lu Li hadn't had a rest.

   "Then I will climb by myself."

  Lu Li stopped talking to the stubborn Kate, grabbed the hemp rope, climbed up with his hands and fixed it with his feet, slowly climbed to the top, turned over the side of the ship, and smashed onto the deck.

  The deck sprinkled with dried blood was silent, and the waves slapped on the dull conduction deck of the hull, vibrating into the mind, turning into the wailing of dead souls...

  Lying on the deck, Lu Li who didn't know when he was tired and fell asleep woke up, propping himself up on the deck.

  The hemp rope was stretched straight, and Kate only climbed a third of the way, holding on to the rope weakly.

  Lu Li had no strength in his arms, so he couldn't help, so he temporarily left the side of the ship and stepped up to the upper deck.

   If the lead is on the big ship, the suites of the first-class passengers are suspicious locations.

   The aristocrats and the rich love to carry eccentric objects and antiques from time immemorial, and they often have something in common with the weird.

  Ignoring the dark brown stain on the carpet, Lu Li pushed open the half-closed door, stepped past the scattered pantyhose, shillings, gold coins, and pipes, and observed those things that were not originally part of the suite.

  There are no clues in the first room. Unexpectedly, a flintlock gun and a few bullets were revealed in the opened drawer, which is not what Kate looks like.

  Lu Li picked up the flintlock gun and the bullets, and went to the second room, then the third, fourth, and finally the last room.

  There are many antiques, and there are many rare things, but there is nothing Lu Li is looking for.

   This doesn't work.

  Because even if Lu Li encounters a clue, it is difficult for Lu Li, who has become an ordinary person, to detect its existence and ignore it.

  At this moment, Lu Li held the flintlock gun and looked out the door.

  The sound of dull footsteps echoed from far to near in the corridor.

   Kate appeared outside the door barefoot, clutching the hem of her wet skirt.

   Kate showed up just in time.

  Lu Li asked her: "Did noble merchants behave strangely or strangely when they came into contact with them?"

  Kate's eyes frequently fell on the bed: "What kind?"

   "Like being controlled, different from usual, out of character identity."

  Kate recalled the passengers she came into contact with, and remembered the female companion of a first-class passenger. During the last supper, she showed obvious abnormalities, such as standing unsteadily and making strange ravings.

   Sounds like being weirdly controlled or possessed.

  Lu Li asked Kate to lead him to his cabin. Pass through the blood-stained corridor and push open the broken wooden door.

  Scattered stockings, wet stains on the bedside, discarded underwear, pink and purple embedded toys and strings...

   What Kate saw that night was just a taste.

   "Is there no clue here?"

  Kate, who was confirmed by Lu Li, let him go out. She opened the closet, changed into a loose long skirt and shoes for easy movement, and then went to the next place where there might be clues, the cargo hold.

   The Immortal Giant was silent, and those who could be saved had been brought back to Bay Town by the townspeople. Just them and... the victims stranded to death.

  Raising the oil lamp, the faint light illuminates a few meters. Shadows lurk in the depths of the cargo hold.

  Lu Li and Kate walked in the cargo hold where there might be some weird things hidden, the shadows changed with the movement, and the smell of newness and wood penetrated into the nose.

   Trying to find an unknown specific thing in a cargo hold full of cargo is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

  Lu Li didn't have much time to waste.

  Ten minutes later, Lu Li suddenly searched with a clear target, and quickly found what he wanted - a barrel of kerosene.

   "...you want to burn this place?"

  Kate took the oil lamp and watched as Lu Li unscrewed the oil barrel and poured brown kerosene on the flammable wooden boxes and cars.

   "If it's on a ship, the fire will make it float."

  Some kind of psychology based on destruction and birth, Kate quickly accepted that Lu Li wanted to burn the Immortal Giant.

  If the analysis is correct, Lu Li will get the answer. Get the analysis wrong and you get a ship on fire.

  Throwing away the empty kerosene barrel, Lu Li took back the oil lamp, opened the lampshade, and brought the weak flame close to the wooden box soaked in kerosene.

  The orange-yellow flames gradually spread, tracing upstream along the spilled traces, revealing the outline of the entire cargo hold.

  Lu Li and Kate stood at the entrance of the cargo hold, with the blazing fire shining on their cheeks.

   Just when the flames were about to swallow the cargo hold irreversibly, the cheerfully dancing flames fell into a standstill.

  A long sigh sounded slowly in the silence of all things:

   "Why do you destroy the tranquility that people long for..."

   Lu Li, who was waiting for this moment, was not surprised by the sound, and glanced at the fire on the still Kate's cheek: "Tranquility means that there are only a few of the 2,000 people on board."

   "On land, countless people live carefree..."

   "Are they really alive?"

  The voice fell into the same stagnation as the flame.

   "Who are you?" Lu Li broke the silence.

   "You call the land of hope... Sorahim... the garden of the cultivated land..."

  Lu Li was only half right: he believed that the existence behind the scenes that caused everything to happen was on the Immortal Giant.

  It is the whole cultivated land garden.

  Just as Lu Li witnessed the dying of the Lennon Islands, now it's the turn of the farm.

   "Why did you bring me here at this hour?"

   "Because only this time is safe..."

   "Please send me away."

   "Why? Is it not good here?" The consciousness was surprised.

   "How long has the reality passed?"

   "Three days..."

   "I don't need to stay here."

  Equal proportion of time means that Lu Li has wasted three days, and the illusory beauty is no better than the cruel truth, "I want to go to Heim to find the spirit sculpture, this is the only chance to save the barren land and even the world."

  Best-case scenario is when the swamp spreads to Midnight City and is obliterated by nameless beings.

   Worst case, the swamp swallows the world.

  The self-proclaimed Cultivated Land Consciousness agreed to Lu Li, but it had to prove that Lu Li could survive in the real Cultivated Land—it would send Lu Li to the time of disaster a few days from now.

   "Where's Andrea?" Lu Li asked.

   "The ship? It hid when you came in..."

   After confirming that Andrea was safe and sound, Lu Li let Geng Di Yuan send him into a new dream.

   This is the territory of the Cultivated Land Garden, and the cursed title given by the world is useless in front of the "world" itself. Lu Li had no other choice but to accept.

  The sound of waves sounded in his ears, and Lu Li opened his eyes.

  The pungent smoke, the shaking of the feet, the surging tide, scorching and blood and death...

   What emerged in front of my eyes was the Immortal Giant after suffering a catastrophe.

  It seemed to be repeating his experience in Belfast-everything was falling irretrievably into the abyss.
