Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 280 One hundred and ninety-five. Enter

   Nobody would do that.

   Try to be able to communicate with each other in the face of weirdness.

  So the night watchmen didn't understand what happened, they only saw Lu Li's light gray figure reaching out and touching the wall for a while, then retracted and retreated to the street.

   "I don't know what you just did, but it doesn't seem to be working."

  Price said to Lu Li who walked up to them.

  Lu Li nodded, not delving into this topic: "How long until the tool is ready?"

   "Should be soon." Price replied, and it wouldn't take much time.

   "But can you tell me what to do for a while?"

   "Find the ladder first." Lu Li said to Price.

  Petra's bedroom and study are both on the second floor, and the most likely location for the ancient book is only before the two.

   His plan was to find the ancient book and use tools to take it out.

  If the consciousness of the evil thing will not stop it.

  The night watchman quickly borrowed a wooden ladder from a neighbor and put it under the bedroom window. When Lu Li stepped up the stairs, no night watchman stepped forward to stop him—because this was the job of an investigator.

​​​​​​

  Lu Li raised his hand and pulled the window, which was locked from the inside without moving.

   The rain all over me covered up the subtle sounds from the windows.

"Let me do it."

  Anna's voice sounded in his ears.

   "No, you don't come near here."

  Lu Li stopped Anna, it is unknown whether this evil thing will attack the ghost.

   "I don't take risks, and neither do you."

"Um……"

   wiped his palm on the glass, and Lu Li could see the situation in the bedroom in an inaudible subtle voice, but after a second, the falling rain made the glass blurred again.

   He can only see the outline of the bedroom, such as the position of the bed, the position of the dining table, and the position of the bookshelf.

   repeated several times, Lu Li gave up this observation and got down from the ladder.

  The rain boots fell on the ground, and Lu Li found that a night watchman was quickly moving away from here, while the number of players around him remained the same.

  Lu Li looked at the extra figure approaching the rain screen and disappeared: "What's wrong?"

   "An investigator entered Elm Street and was approaching here," Price said.

   Matthew had already told Lu Li about this, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

   "I see." Lu Li replied, and said to Anna next to him, "Hide all the breath and don't let him find out."

"Um."

   After Lu Li finished speaking, Price asked, "How is the situation?"

   "I can't observe, I hope the senior investigator can do something."

  Standing under the eaves and waiting for a while, in the distance of the empty and noisy street, a figure holding an umbrella appeared in the rain curtain.

  The figure was wearing an old-fashioned woolen coat, almost reaching the length of the calf, wearing a dark gray round felt hat, two goatees extending under the bridge of the towering nose, the tip turned up, and leaning on a cane in his right hand.

   He looks like a detective.

   This middle-aged man with a high nose bridge came to the crowd, his eyes fell on Lu Li and Pulis, and he introduced himself: "Thomas, Rudolf Thomas, senior investigator."

  The tone of his speech is a bit strange, and he has a tone that can only be heard in opera.

   Usually the nobles of the upper class will pretend to make a similar accent.

   "Captain of the Seventy-Eighth Squad of the Night's Watch, Pulis."

"Land from."

  Price and Lu Li said separately.

   "I know you, I've seen all the processing." Thomas looked at Lu Li with a smile, raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "You're doing a good job, but I didn't do as well as you did."

  Thomas's familiar and senior-like tone made Plath a little uncomfortable, but Lu Li didn't say anything, and he couldn't say anything.

   "What else do you know about [Cannibal House]? The kind that isn't in the documentation." Thomas asked in a weird tone.

  Lu Li nodded: "The house will spit out clothes after eating people. At the same time, most of the infected are objects such as cups, floors, doors, etc. Books and clothes are not included. It is temporarily judged that only furniture will be infected."

   "Very good information, then—"

  Thomas suddenly stopped speaking and turned to look at the other side of the street.

   Several night watchmen arrived here with various tools, including what looked like a fishing rod.

   "What is this?" he asked in surprise.

   "Some gadgets that let us take out ancient books without going in," Price said.

   "We don't need this thing, I brought the cognate to deal with this big guy... help me get it. Thank you."

   He handed the umbrella to a member of the Night's Watch standing beside him, and picked up a box of battered music boxes and a pair of earplugs from his pocket.

  Thomas took the umbrella from the team member, handed him the cane, shook the music box and said, "This is the thing, I'm going to start using it, cover your ears, unless you also want to sleep."

   Lu Li covered his ears first.

After   Price, the other night watchmen also blocked their ears one after another.

  Thomas walked to the door, looked inside, put on earplugs for his left and right ears, and then twisted the music box.

  In the silent world, Lu Li quietly watched the villain on the music box start to spin. He seemed to hear a wonderful music sound in a trance, but when he followed the music, there was nothing.

   After more than ten seconds, Thomas at the door turned around, opened his mouth and said to them, his mouth changed, and he said a word: "Okay."

  Lu Li released the palm that covered his ears, and heard a night watchman whisper: "I feel the aura of the evil thing has weakened."

  Price heard the words, looked at Lu Li, Lu Li nodded and said, "Its consciousness has become very weak, it seems to be in a deep sleep."

   "If you hear any existence of the music box, you will fall asleep for half an hour, which is enough for us to act." Thomas put away the music box and said to Lu Li, who came to his side, "Let's go in."

   "Then you go first." Lu Li said.

  Thomas nodded half-smiling and called to the vigil, "Do you want to follow?"

   "If necessary," answered Price.

   "Forget it." Thomas waved his hand and walked in behind the door as easily as if he were wandering in the garden.

   Ignoring the weird tone and the familiar attitude, his character is not bad.

  Price and the others frowned while observing, Thomas, who had walked into the inside of the evil thing, turned around and opened his arms to signal that he was safe.

  Lu Li waited at the door for dozens of seconds, but nothing happened. The door didn't close, and Thomas wasn't caught by the tentacles that suddenly stretched out. He thought about it and said to Anna, "You stay outside and don't come in unless the evil thing suddenly wakes up."

   The voice fell, and Lu Li walked into this cannibalistic house.
