Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 1060 One hundred and twenty seven. Four lords go to three

  Claire walked towards the remaining two cooks in shock.

   "Where is the farmer."

  The cook woke up, and seemed to be snarling fiercely at her.

Snapped-

  Claire waved, and the gust of wind dissipated, turning into a breeze blowing the sticky hair of Lu Li not far behind.

   The lower limbs of the cook who had erased the torso collapsed back, tearing the brownish-yellow fat in the cross-section and quivering.

   "Where is the farmer?"

  Claire turned to the last cook.

   “…Grumble…”

  The cook cowardly muttered in a language that no one understood.

   This time, Claire controlled her strength a little bit, and only made the cook's chest dent, not broken everywhere.

   "We can't understand." Claire shook off the blood on her palm in disgust, listened to the movement outside the kitchen, and said to Lu Li, "No one found us, the assassination was successful."

   "Can't you solve the Viscount directly?"

   The black cat's eyes reflected Claire who wrapped the bandages around her palms, and her body was surging with surging power.

   "Remember the musket theory?" Claire said, wrapping her wrists, "It depends on who pulls the trigger first. Our muskets have a shorter range and thinner leather."

   Like Claire and the Head Maid. As long as you get close to Claire, you win, as long as the floating maid wins.

   "And we still don't understand the power of the Viscount." Claire wrapped another palm.

  Fear stems from the unknown, which is a terror beyond cognition and an incomprehensible force. There is no other way but to accumulate experience, and accumulation of experience usually means "dealing with human life".

   That's why evil spirits are so hated. The good news that can be found from the bad situation is that because of the decline in the population, the proportion of new evil spirits is gradually decreasing, and the old evil spirits are also gradually decreasing - the weirdness also covets their body.

   "Are you going to return to human form?" Claire asked Lu Li.

   "Not for now."

   The advantages of the black cat form are temporarily irreplaceable.

   "Do you need me to clean it for you then?"

  Lu Li said after being silent for a while, "I can wash myself."

  The kitchen does have a water source. The level of contamination cannot be determined, but just taking a shower is enough.

  Claire found an iron basin and filled it with water, and when Lu Li jumped into the basin, the water was smeared with filth and blood, she heard something, and walked to the narrow window of the kitchen to look out.

   The filth that melts into the clean water reduces the stench that hits the soul. The price is that the clean water will soon turn into a rancid sewage that cannot be swallowed with the fluttering hair, and is more filthy than the sewers.

   The smell of Lu Shi's hair can still be smelled from a few meters away. He stepped out of the water basin, jumped straight into the water tank storing fresh water, held his breath and gradually sank to the dark bottom.

  The water tank did not change color, the dirt visible to the naked eye has faded, but the smell will not dissipate. After soaking for a while, Lu Li climbed out of the water tank and walked towards Claire wetly.

  Dangjang—

   Hearing the movement, Claire retracted her gaze and saw Lu Li approaching with wet marks, and the plate behind him vibrated and returned to rest.

   "Do you need a towel?"

"Need not."

  The kitchen doesn't have much to call it clean.

  Claire watched Lu Li walk to his feet, bent over and held him by the back of his neck and lifted him to the window.

   But Lu Li didn't look out the window, the dark cat pupil stared at Claire calmly.

   "What's wrong?" Claire wondered.

   "You can use a more friendly gesture."

   "Oh sorry, mother always carries weird cubs like that when she catches them."

  Claire didn't care that the bandage was wet, and instead held Lu Li with both hands under Lu Li's armpits. Although the posture is equally strange, it is much better than before.

   Water drops dripped along his tail, and Lu Li's eyes fell to the dim darkness outside the window.

   Convergence and loose firefly-like light adorn the surrounding gardens on the other side of the moat.

   "The other players are here, they appeared too soon... than expected." Claire whispered back to her ear.

   It took Lu Li and Claire less than an hour from leaving the utility room to solving the head chef. And within an hour, the players pushed from the edge of the manor to outside the moat...

   But it seems normal. Whether the lizard maid or the little gardener, or the bat guard, they are just physical monsters like beasts. It fits into Claire's musket theory, that is: human muskets have a longer range and thicker leather armor.

  The only dead tree forests and nurseries that could be blocked a little were also reminded not to attack humans.

   "We have to hurry up."

  Claire said, put down Lu Li and left the kitchen.

   The backs of a few cooks in the distance disappeared at the end of the corridor.

   Lu Li and Claire followed to the porch, the garden was empty, howling and roaring echoed in the night sky.

   At this moment, the statues of bat monsters sitting on the towering spires on the outer walls of the castle suddenly shook off the lime, spread out giant wings that cover the shadows, and swooped towards the garden light spots.

  Not the expected carnage - Bat phantom joining the battlefield was blocked by the players. They fight in small groups and have a clear division of labor. To deal with such low-minded monsters, you only need to attract attention, and others will take the opportunity to attack.

   Wiener Antifreeze did nothing wrong.

   The divergent thinking brought about by restoring his memory made Lu Li think of the scene where the battleship artillery bombarded the body of the bat monster.

   They're just wrong at the extreme, and Midnight City does a better job of it.

   Without stopping too much on the porch, they walked across the garden to the main castle building.

   Here you can still see the lizard maids passing by.

  Claire stepped on the floor tiles, turned into an afterimage and grabbed the unsuspecting lizard maid: "Where is the farmer."

   The lizard maid was about to screech and scream, when she suddenly found the black cat following Claire, hoarse hatred and growled: "You betrayed the master...!"

   "Where is the head maid?" Claire asked again.

   "She was imprisoned in the dungeon because of you! The master will not forgive you..."

"thanks."

  Claire raised her hand and knocked the lizard maid unconscious instead of hammering it. She lowered her head and said to Lu Li, "I think we have enough time for you to visit her."

"Um."

  Claire led the way, and the defenses leading to the dungeon were adjusted by foreign enemies, and they did not have any obstacles to enter the dark and damp dungeon.

   "Lu Li." Claire gestured to Lu Li in the passageway with the wall lamp burning.

  “Meow~”

   Lu Li made a cat meow.

   "Remi...?"

   A surprise cry rang out, and a silhouette emerged from behind the sealed head maid's cell: "You are here to save me... Who are you?"

   "Hello, Claire." Claire's introduction sounded strange.

   "Claire...human...you betrayed me?" The bandages covered his face, but he could feel the pain in it.

   "... Leimi didn't betray you." After a brief silence, Lu Li said calmly, "But I'm not Leimi."

"Do not…"

   The head maid staggered back into the shadows.

   "...I...Lord...I must... surrender!"

   The roar of the surface roared into the cellar.

  Claire and Lu Li looked at each other and waved at the shadow: "Goodbye little maid, we will let you out when we deal with the farmer and the viscount."

   The dungeon returned to peace as they left...like the peace before the storm.

  Call—

   A weak cyclone swept the corridor outside the cell.

  …

   They came a little later.

  When Lu Li and Claire returned to the surface, they appeared under the city wall, and the head of the farmer opposite the moat had been cut off by the great sword.

   Four lords go to three.
