Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 290 Two hundred five. Plan to restart

   Bad things followed.

   Lu Li should have had time to buffer, but the disaster disrupted everything; Lu Li should have had time to accumulate, but the terrifying giant disrupted everything; Lu Li should have had time to build a refuge, but the rainy season disrupted everything.

  Everything is getting closer to the worst.

   Can't wait any longer.

  Lu said to himself in a heartbeat.

   After reading the content at the back of "Investigator Weekly", he stacked this issue with several other issues.

   "What can I do?" Anna said to Lu Li, her clear eyes carrying an emotion called firmness.

"a lot of."

  Lu Li picked up the phone, paused for a moment, found the string of relatively unfamiliar numbers in his memory, and dialed the dial.

   didn't wait long, a coherent and fast tone came from the microphone.

   "Here is a healthy and happy every-"

   "It's me." Lu Li interrupted the words on the other side.

  Marcus paused for a moment, and his tone became more enthusiastic, still equally fast: "It turned out to be our Investigator Your Excellency! I don't know what is your visit?"

   "I have something to entrust."

   "Uh...I heard that right...Delegation? We are healthy and happy. Only the two of us are successful every day. I mean...What event do you want to delegate?"

   "Find me someone in Belfast who is familiar with the Northern Elm Forest."

   "Uh... this kind of thing we can't do 'healthy and happy every day', you know, we are only responsible for solving supernatural problems."

   In other words, only solve the supernatural problem that Lu Li promised to solve.

   After all, Lu Li was the only one who promised to cooperate with him.

"never mind."

   "Uh... ok, I'm still contacting you about the big deal you want, don't give up waiting!"

  Kara.

   Marcus shouted and hung up the phone.

   This kind of thing really needs to be done by professionals, such as a brother and sister who are about to fade out of his sight.

   Oliver and his sister Jojo.

   A month ago, Oliver received a private shipment from Shadowswamp or Zernster to deliver a shipment to Belfast.

   Generally speaking, a week is enough for him to finish his trip, but until a month has passed, he has never heard any news.

   Only the Slavs who are derived from him still keep sending love letters with a frequency of a few days to a week.

   Maybe something happened to him, or maybe he found a better job, after all, he never had an employment relationship with Lu Li.

  According to his own personal experience analysis, Lu Li believes that the former is more.

   After thinking for a while, Lu Li still got through the phone number left by Oliver's sister Qiaoqiao.

   It wasn't Qiao Qiao who answered the phone, but after Lu Li said he was looking for Joanna, the person on the other side of the phone told him on his behalf.

   Ten minutes after hanging up, the phone rang on the desk.

   "Hey, is that Lu Li? I'm Qiao Qiao... Are you looking for my brother?"

   "Is he back?"

   "He's back...but he's gone again..." There was a hint of guilt in Jojo's hearty voice in the microphone. "He got paid a lot for the new job last month, so he went again..."

   "That's all right."

  Lu Li took off the phone, ready to hang up.

   A hurried voice came from the microphone: "Wait! You... have a commission for him to do it?"

"Um."

   "He should still be waiting in Shadow Town now...but I can do it!"

   "I need it asap."

   "What a coincidence, I also need it as soon as possible!"

   As a young girl who grew up in a slum with her brother, she also possesses a shrewdness that does not belong to her age.

   And the few things Jojo helped the detective agency do before are really good.

   So Lu Li said directly: "Look for a person in Belfast who is familiar with the Northern Elm Forest for me. It's best to find him before noon. You know the address of the detective agency. Bring him here."

   "Now? It's raining heavily outside."

   "So I said ASAP."

   "Well... OK, so how much are you going to pay for it? Let's say first, this money is not for me, I will only take a share of it, just like you and my brother did."

   "Find the person who knows the place best as you can, and let him set the price, as long as it's not excessive."

   "Don't worry, I won't let him open the crocodile's mouth, let's talk back!"

   Jojo on the other side hung up the phone.

  Lu Li put the microphone back in place.

   "It's a girl's voice."

   Anna's random question floated from the side, if she didn't have to glance at Lu Li from the corner of her eye, she might seem to care less.

   "Oliver's sister Jojo, you've met her." Lu Li said.

  Anna seemed to be relieved, and her tone became more lively: "I remembered, it's that girl named Anna. Did she take over this commission?"

"Um."

   "Oh~"

Maybe in order to express herself, maybe she just met the right person. Half an hour after hanging up, the phone rang. Qiao Qiao told Lu Li that she had found the person he needed, but he had a lame leg. Time consuming -

   "You come in carriages."

   "First of all, I won't use my meager share to pay for the carriage."

   "I'll pay for it."

   "This one works! We'll be there soon!"

  The phone was hurriedly hung up again.

   "She's almost there."

   Putting back the microphone, Lu Li said to Anna.

   "I'm going too!" Anna, who was cleaning the floor, stood straight and crossed her hips.

"certainly."

  …

  Twenty minutes later, a carriage slowed down outside the window and stopped in front of the longhouse door.

   "They're coming."

  Lu Li said, taking some change and standing under the eaves outside the door from the corridor.

  An old man with an empty right trouser leg was helped out of the carriage by Jojo, and the groom held an umbrella by the side to cover them from the rain.

   Walking under the eaves, Lu Li inquired about the fare and gave double the price: "Send this lady to where she is going."

   Jojo, who was going to help the old man into the corridor, was stunned: "Don't you need my help?"

   "No, how much is the commission fee you negotiated?"

  The old man said for Jojo: "If you need me to take a trip, it's 50 shillings, and asking some questions is just 10 shillings. After all, I'm just answering some questions. You are still a friend of Jojo and Oliver."

   "Mr. Barton, our brother and sister have known each other for a long time." Jojo explained.

   "Do you need to take a trip to ask another question?" Lu Li asked.

   "It's still fifty shillings."

  Lu Li nodded and handed Jojo a 10 shilling reward. In fact, it only cost 5 shillings, but the only 5 shillings were given to the groom by Lu Li.

   "Wow, thank you boss."

  Qiaoqiao whistled, pulled the 10-shilling bill, turned and got back into the carriage, waving at Lu Li, "If you have other requests, remember to call me handsome."

   Lu Li had a cold aura around him.

  The groom drove the carriage away from the door of the long house, Lu Li turned around and stretched out his arms to help the old man.

   But the old man has already moved his empty trouser legs and walked into the dark corridor.
