Apostle of Cthulhu

Chapter 229: Corrosion

"Where is Miss Ivana? Why didn't I see her when I came here?"

Isaac said: "You want to borrow her... She took a day off from me today, and I don't know what she is doing. I usually don't ask about the whereabouts of my people."

Out?

Si Wei nodded slightly, glanced at the watch on his wrist, estimated that the time was almost up, and stood up and said: "It's almost time for me to leave. I hope Miss Sidi can still be happy these days. Even if she doesn't go to Isaac Sir, you can also gain a lot of happiness. I live in the pirate hotel next to the police station. If you are interested, you can ask the maid to bring you to me. "

Isaac did not interrupt Si Wei's words, and he did not have time to accompany Sidi during this period. Now that Si Wei took the initiative to help him deal with this trivial matter, it was also a considerable relief for him.

Sidi tapped her chin slightly and made a still weak sound, "Well..."

Isaac also stood up and said, "Let me see you off."

Si Wei didn't even need to ask, he knew that Isaac must have something that he wanted to talk to him alone. He didn't decline, but just nodded.

After walking out of the reception room, Isaac personally told the maid: "Take care of Sidi's daily life during this period. I will see this guest off personally, and you don't need to follow him."

The maid bowed and bowed, complying with Isaac's request.

The two walked to the center of the garden without saying a word. At this moment, Hering was filling his watering can with water from the fountain.

"Mr. Isaac, Mr. Siwei." He Ling put down his watering can and saluted the two of them.

Isaac stretched out his hand and interrupted He Ling's behavior, "That's not necessary. Now I want to have some secret conversations with Mr. Siwei. You can check to see if anyone is listening around."

"Yes." He Ling responded normally, then closed his eyes, and a very peaceful power of grace spread out around him.

After about six or seven seconds, He Ling opened his eyes and said, "No one is listening within 500 meters."

After receiving He Ling's definite answer, Isaac felt relieved and turned to Si Wei: "I know you are interested in Ivana's ability, so you want to borrow her for a while, but I still have some I need to warn you about this, otherwise... I'm afraid something might happen to you."

"What is it?"

Isaac hesitated for a moment, "Ivana is a child I picked up when I was young. At that time, I was still a young soldier in the imperial army. During a certain raid mission against the followers of Pantheon, I came from Ivana was found in the abandoned cellar.

"Ivana at that time might have been as old as Sidi now, but at that time Ivana had been tortured terribly by the followers of the Pantheon Cult. Even when Sidi suffered the pain of the gift bug, It can’t compare to the hell on earth that Ivana has experienced.

"So this child is very good at hiding her emotions. Even I can rarely completely guess what she is thinking. She cares about the people who have helped her, but when doing things, she does whatever it takes and prioritizes achieving the goal. matter.

"Her body seems to have been stuffed with something by followers of the Pantheon Cult. As for what it is, I don't know, but it seems to affect Ivana from time to time. Her fiery red hair was affected by that thing. Influenced.”

Si Wei felt that Isaac was reminding himself that Ivana was a madman, a madman who still had reason.

Isaac continued: "I am not doubting Ivana's loyalty, I am just doubting that the thing in her body will gradually erode her heart, and finally make her fall out of control."

"Is that so... It turns out there is such a thing. I understand. I will pay more attention to it."

The main reason why Isaac told Si Wei about this matter was because Si Wei had too many unsolved mysteries. If even the gift bugs are afraid of him, then can the thing that was stuffed into Ivana's body be taken out through Si Wei's means?

This incident was something Isaac wanted to witness.

At the same time, there was an abandoned residential building.

This residential building had been under the jurisdiction of Chadril's gang members before, but for some reason, the entire gang was missing during this time. According to rumors, it seemed that someone had taken it away.

As for whether it is true or false, no one has verified it. After all, no one wants to get involved in this kind of mess.

There is a mixed bag of good and bad people in Chadril now. If he accidentally kicks an iron plate like Si Wei's, what he will lose is not his legs, but his life.

Today, Beverly did not wear a veil or an overly gorgeous dress, but simply wore trousers and a shirt. Her face was dotted with some disguised freckles, but it still could not hide her eyebrows.

But when she walked into the abandoned residential building, few people were willing to take action.

Beverly took out a silver key from her pocket. The end of the key was decorated with carefully carved flowers, which looked expensive.

Opening the door, Beverly walked in. The entire first floor of the residential building looked as if no one had lived there for hundreds of years. Even the living facilities were from a long, long time ago, and there was no electricity.

The water pipes were full of vomit and gave off a disgusting smell. It was hard to imagine that a beautiful person like Beverly would live in such a filthy house.

Beverly's expression remained unchanged, and she calmly walked to the bedroom. However, at this moment, the bed in the bedroom had been moved, and the secret passage hidden under the bed leading to the basement was open, as if she was inviting someone into a trap.

Beverly frowned slightly, and seemed to have guessed who was in the basement.

Da, da.

The crisp sound of high-heeled boots echoed in the secret passage. After a few steps, Beryl had already entered the basement.

The basement was relatively simple, but the living facilities were relatively complete, at least there was water and electricity.

A small sofa that was not too expensive was placed in the corner of the wall, and on the other side was a single bed and a bedside table that could accommodate one person sleeping soundly, with some information and photos on it.

The small electric light above the head emitted a faint orange light, diligently illuminating the entire room.

A dark brown desk faced the wall, with ink and feather pens quietly displayed on it, and some clothes for changing were placed on the chair of the desk, piled up like a small mountain.

Norris sat on the sofa without smoking. The air in the basement was not very well circulated. If he still smoked, he would probably choke to death in it.

"You are back?" Norris asked.

Bai Fuli was silent and pulled out a hatchet from her waist. "Before you die, let me ask you, why did you invade my house?"

"First of all, this is just something you took from someone else by force. It has no legal effect. Secondly, I don't want to invade your simple home. I have always paid for a room in the Pirate Hotel for you, but you just don't come to live here."

"You are a wanted criminal! I finally returned to the position of a judge. If the cooperation between you and me leads to my impeachment, will you help me assassinate those people?"

Norris spread his hands, indicating that he would not be responsible for it.

Bai Fuli was a little bit intolerable, "What do you want to do?"

"Si Wei wants to meet you." Norris got straight to the point, "We are ready to make a big move now."
