Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 447 24. Go back to the old business
Chapter 447 Twenty-four.
Anna pursed her lips lightly, she knew that Lu Li's words were definitely not what he meant, he just comforted himself, silently watching Lu Li and asking the townsman, "You don't have to be afraid, I am the exorcist, she is my assistant. "
Lu Li will not comfort anyone, except Anna. But it was enough as a life-saving straw thrown to the townspeople.
Lu Li motioned for Anna to release the townspeople and said, "I have a few questions."
"When...of course!"
The townspeople who realized that they could move looked at Anna in fear, trembling all over, and hurriedly said.
"Who asked you to deliver the letter?"
The terrified townspeople searched their memories with great difficulty: "I don't know her...she's a very strange woman!"
"woman?"
Ana and Lu Li looked at each other.
The townspeople told Lu Li that the exorcists in Shadow Town hired him and some townspeople with carriages to pull things from Shadow Town to Rose Town. When he was about to go out to work a few minutes ago, a mysterious woman in a robe approached him, asked him to hand over a letter to the carriage that had just left the town, and gave him dozens of shillings.
The townspeople thought she was an exorcist, and there was no reason not to do anything that paid, so they caught up with Lu Li, and the previous scene happened.
"What is there about her that you remember vividly?" Lu Li asked, and added: "Tone tone, accent, body shape."
The townspeople glanced at Anna secretly, and quickly glanced away as if burned: "Is she tall enough...? Almost as tall as me..."
"It's alright, thank you for the information." Lu Li said, letting Anna hide her figure.
The disappearance of Anna made the townspeople even more terrified. He almost cried and asked Lu Li if he could leave. After getting the answer, he took the reins and hurried towards the way he came.
Thinking of coming to this shadow town job, he is afraid to do it for the time being.
"Is it possible that the townspeople are pretending to be the person behind the scenes?" Anna's voice came from the void, and she still questioned the identity of the townspeople.
"It may be very small, the people behind the scenes should already know that we guessed his existence, and there is no point in taking the risk to take the initiative to show up."
"Women..." Anna murmured, thinking about how many women Lu Li knew.
Baron Joseph...The Slavic lady who sent a love letter that he peeked at...Jojo, who has left the Ellen Peninsula...
A mysterious and eerie silhouette suddenly appeared: "Is that the woman in the beak mask we met in the swamp cabin?"
Anna remembered that she was also tall, wearing a beak mask with her hat brim almost as high as Lu Li.
"It may also be an illusion to get us into misunderstandings."
Lu Li was not disturbed by the new clues added, he just had to remember one thing clearly—the only people who knew the **** tentacles could be Tesla and the investigator headquarters, and the initiator Richard.
The reason why Tesla didn't do this. There may be a possibility of information leakage, but along with the **** tentacle news, there is also the information of the terrifying source of pollution, the "door".
The blood-colored tentacles between the eyebrows have not affected Lu Li so far, but the "door" has never been tired and pulled Lu Li into the door again and again.
What is in it is unknown, but it can be seen from the diary I have read.
If it is a leak, those who spy on the information should be more worried about the threat of the "door", not the insignificant blood-colored tentacles-compared to the insignificance of the door.
Behind the letter, Richard's outline is becoming more and more clear.
However, even if it is confirmed that the person behind the scene is Richard, it will not fundamentally change the status quo of Lu Li.
unless Richard is quoted.
Lu Li looked to the south again. In the gloomy clouds, blood-colored tentacles tens of thousands of meters long windingly landed beyond the end of the line of sight. There was the Lord's Continent.
If all the blood-colored tentacles disappear, will Richard continue to remain secretive?
Lu Li had done this before, trying to force out the hidden Richard. It's just that Richard hasn't shown up after all the **** tentacles on the Ellen Peninsula have been solved, and the **** tentacles of other continents have gathered too far and gave up.
But now—
Their location has changed and seems to be closer to the Allen Peninsula.
Maybe, like Lu Li, he was summoned by someone behind the scenes?
In any case, this is the best chance to solve the problem completely and bring out the existence behind the scenes.
looked back, Lu Li tilted his head and asked Anna who was emerging: "Want to go to a new place to see."
Anna knew what Lu Li was referring to, she frowned and said softly, "The letter tells you to stay on the Ellen Peninsula."
Lu Li replied, "That person just didn't want me to leave the Ellen Peninsula for too long. Although the other tentacles are close to the Ellen Peninsula, they are still outside."
"The other tentacles are approaching the Ellen Peninsula? What does that person want to do..."
"Perhaps his plan is about to begin."
Just as Lu Li felt the increasingly dangerous world wanted to seek refuge in the Lennon Islands, the people behind the scenes sensed the same crisis and started planning.
In any case, as a victim of the passive pull-in plan, Lu Li couldn't keep it going.
"I'll go wherever you go."
Anna's soft voice sounded in his ears, and Lu Li pulled up the reins.
"Let's go then."
Turn right at the fork, and the carriage passes Shadow Town.
The scorched smell of gunpowder smoke that filled the sky above Shadow Town still seemed to exist, and some figures shuttled through the streets of collapsed houses.
After a while, Lu Li saw that the tallest and most sturdy church in the town had collapsed into ruins and lost its former glory.
The final outcome of the battle between the old and new Swamp Mother, ended with the victory of the New Swamp Mother and the defeat of Shadow Town. The few dozen who survive will be sent to live in other towns. If the world is no longer dangerous, the swamp road may be reborn here, and a town will re-emerge.
But its more likely ending is that over time, the ruins will become an untouched wilderness, withering along with the thousands of undead who died in Shadowtown.
bypassed Shadow Town and reached the swamp road that was temporarily blocked due to the Shadow Town incident. The carriage drove on the straight swamp road.
This time, the behind-the-scenes existence did not send any more letters. On the swamp road separating the north and south swamps, there was only a carriage that was moving slowly.
"The existence of the Swamp Mother in the Northern Shadow Swamp is taboo, but there are no strange rumors about the Swamp Road, and the existence inside may not be active."
Lu Li answered Anna's first question at this moment.
As time passed, dark silhouettes began to appear among the dead woods in the southern swamp on the left.
Yingchuoren is the shadow of the Swamp Mother.
The Swamp Mother is watching Lu Li passing by.
They just watched silently, not approaching the moving carriage.
The long journey, Yingchuo's observation never disappeared. As time passed near morning, the carriage was about to reach the other end of the swamp road.
At the end of the line of sight in front of , a low and dark mountain range gradually emerged.
The Continent of the Lord, the birthplace of civilization, is just ahead.
