Bizarre Detective Agency

  Chapter 1198 One Hundred Thirty Six. Head Maid Claire

   Under the solitary candlelight, the bushes cast eerie shadows.

   A lizard maid with a disgusting head roams in front of the mansion.

  The oil lamp held by the strange claw was dimly lit, and the surrounding objects dragged long, swaying strange figures.

   This eerie tranquility continued as the Lizard Maid slowly trimmed the manor bushes, until a shadow streamed over the edge, and the Lizard Maid's protruding, sturdy eye mask turned and followed the quietly flowing shadow with an oil lamp.

   As if the shadow of the lurking black mist had a clear target, it used the bushes and corners to hide itself, avoid the lizard maids along the way, and got into the mansion.

   Only the original lizard maid found it and walked into the mansion.

  The shadow flickered on the second floor at the corner of the stairs. It came upstairs and saw the dark and slender shadow pull down the doorknob and enter the master's bedroom.

  The lizard maid stopped in front of the bedroom with the door ajar and stretched out her strange claws.

  The invisible breeze that lifted the corners of her clothes suddenly surged in the corridor, and a thin girl wrapped in bandages and dressed in a maid outfit fell into the corridor from the window.

"what are you doing here."

   The lizard lowered its head: "Master, there is an intruder."

   The head maid waved gently, and the strong wind slammed open the door, revealing the situation in the bedroom: an elegant black cat sat on the bed.

   "Little Leimi!"

  The bandaged girl screamed in a gaffe, fell back to the carpet, rushed into the bedroom, and hugged the black cat tightly.

   "Remi, are you here to find me... I miss you so much..."

   The whispers of reliance and longing touched her heart, but this tenderness was only for "Little Leimi". When the conscious lizard maid was still in the corridor, she turned back and scolded: "Get out!"

  ——!

   A gust of wind slammed the door shut, and the indifference of the head maid melted into gentleness: "I've been looking for you...are you looking for me too?"

"Um."

   Lu Li did not make a cat meow.

   This time, the infiltration without alerting other lords is perfect, but there are still hidden dangers: the land dweller business and the swamp will learn of Lu Li's whereabouts due to the theft of the ancient stone seal. They know the story of "The Sunken Land", the road paved by the undead of Midnight City for Lu Li, and the identity of Lu Li's disguise.

   It no longer makes sense to tangle whether The Sunken Place was the inspiration of writer Clarence Wilkin or a swampy conspiracy, the existence of which has broken the road paved by Midnight City for Luli.

   And even if you can follow the predetermined route...and lose the people of Midnight City, it no longer makes sense to recast the order of Midnight City.

  The lie is fragile and the head maid may still believe that the black cat in front of her is her little Remi, but it is not difficult to break the lie.

   Must be closely linked with the head maid, even if the truth is revealed, it will not change the relationship between Lu Li and Claire——

   What could Claire believe better than telling the truth?

   "You can talk!?"

   The head maid was delighted by the response of "Little Leimi".

  Claire's imprint was deep enough that even opening her mouth wouldn't affect the head maid's trust in Xiao Leimi—this was Lu Li's chance.

   "Follow me." Lu Li tried to jump off the head maid, but was hugged by her and couldn't break free.

   "Put me down first."

"don't want."

   The head maid's chin rested on Lu Li's head.

  Lu Li had to let the head maid carry him away from the mansion instead, and fell in front of the woodshed standing alone on the edge of the garden.

  The struggling Lu Li finally slipped from the gap between the head maid's chest and arms. Before the cat's claws landed, Rou Feng lifted him up and carried him back into the head maid's arms.

   "Open the door, don't use the wind." Lu Li had to give up his struggle.

   "Okay."

   The head maid approached the wooden door and pushed open the wooden door that was rubbing against the floor.

  The dusty old firewood house appears in front of you, but if you look closely, you will find uneven dust and cat paw prints on the floor.

   "Put me down."

  Lu Li landed on the floor, jumped on the debris accumulated in the corner, got into the back, and soon his cheeks were stained with dust and he took out a stomach bag.

   Before the head maid picked herself up and wiped off the dust, Lu Li bit the stomach bag, the cat reached into the stomach bag, bulging and rummaging for "The Sunken Place"

  .

   There is no Doomsday Apocalypse book increase, dragging a book is a bit difficult for him, before closing the stomach bag and swallowing Lu Li, his head barely burrows out of the stomach bag, holding a corner of "The Sunken Land".

  A thin arm wrapped in bandages jumped over Lu Li and picked up the "Sinking Ground".

   "The answer is in this book." Lu Li said.

   The head maid took Lu Li back into her arms before opening the title page of the book.

  【Death is not inescapable, people engraved into history are just eternal sleep. --Land from】

   The head maid, who didn't know what this meant, looked on curiously and saw the protagonist Lu Li entering the Giant Tree Academy, pointing to the outline of the giant tree far away outside the door: "Is that the tree?"

After receiving the answer, the head maid gently stroked Lu Li's head and continued to look down. From Lu Li's integration into the lower grades, he became interested, to Lu Li being sacrificed by Professor Hagrid and became nervous, and then to the top ten competition, he became euphoric. .

  The swamp to the filthy sewer, the strange jungle to the fourth level, and when Lu Li got out of the dark passage and turned into Remi, the euphoric breeze around the head maid disappeared.

  Lu Li jumped down when the head maid finished reading the postscript, and came to the hidden cellar door: "The tunnel is under here."

  The breeze blew up Lu Li and brought him to the head maid.

   "Are you Lu Li?"

"Um."

   "I'm Claire?"

"Um."

"You were deceived by this book, Xiao Leimi." The head maid didn't read the following content, the tiny whirlpool raged in her palm, tearing "The Sunken Land" to pieces: "It's dangerous outside, and many weirdos want to deceive you. trust.”

  Lu Li's black gem cat pupils reflected the head maid who was surrounded by the turbulent wind: "This is the truth, how much do you know about the outside world? Do you still remember the past? Why is Xiaoleimi so important to you?"

  The silent head maid defended: "Because you are my family!"

   "But you never doubted me, that itself says something."

   "Then why do you believe me?" whispered the head maid.

   "The same reason you believe I'm Remi."

   Because of trust.

   The bizarre dream suddenly blurred from the black cat, wrapping the head maid in the halo.

   "Don't resist, you will see what happened."

   Waiting for the unsuspecting maid to fall into a dream, Lu Li restrained the person who fell into the dream and followed him into the dream-the dream would not lose humanity like the person who released the dream, and he had enough time to tell the story of the head maid. .

   From when Lu Li came to the Giant Tree Academy, to the end of the Midnight City Illusion, which was annihilated behind Lu Li, the head maid watched quietly and left the dream.

   Lu Li also followed Yoyo to wake up.

   "Little Leimi~"

  The head maid, or rather Claire's cheeks were close in front of her eyes, watching Lu Li wake up: "Do you like this title?"

   "Restore your memory?"

   "No, I'm just learning what the other self can say in my memory."

   "You believe it?"

   "I don't believe it, but I know that Xiao Leimi will never lie to me." Claire hugged, cheeks against Lu Li.

  Lu Li heard the confused and familiar smell from the wind under the bandage.

   "Welcome back," he said.
