Bizarre Detective Agency

  Chapter 35 Thirty-five. Love Letters from the Slavs

   "嘚嘚嘚嘚..."

  The unique smell of early morning is mixed with the smell of the sea wafting from the harbour, wafting in from the window, blowing off the window towel, and drifting into the living room of the detective agency.

  Oliver huddled in the corner of the sofa, shaking all over.

   A few books bought on the road lay aside.

   "Anna, this is Oliver. Oliver, this is Anna." Lu Li introduced each other.

   "Hello, I'm Anna." Anna lifted her skirt slightly, slightly arrogant to aristocratic etiquette.

  In front of the stranger she met for the first time, Anna still maintained a certain degree of restraint. Of course, except for Lu Li.

   "嘚嘚嘚嘚..."

   Oliver trembled more violently, his cheeks trembling endlessly.

  He turned his head stiffly, not daring to look at Anna, his eyes were full of help, and he looked at Lu Li.

   "I'm an exorcist, and you work for me. Sooner or later, you will have to come into contact with these ghosts." Lu Li explained, walking to Oliver's side, picking up the book in the stack, the top one with a dark red cover.

Oliver looked like he was about to cry: "I work for you, doesn't it mean I'm not afraid of ghosts, and can't you do it step by step! It's too sudden, I'll bring a ghost back with a click, and I don't care if others can't stand it... …”

   The voice fell, and a faint tone came from beside him.

   "The way I look now...is it scary!"

  Oliver showed a very twisted, weird expression.

   That is to turn your head subconsciously after hearing the sound, and then realize what is next to you. The expression of wanting to turn his head and not wanting to turn his head, a mixture of subconsciousness and resistance.

   Then Oliver froze.

  Anna floated beside her, looking down at Oliver.

   The sophistication of a teenage girl is irresistible, especially when she is wearing a beautiful white gothic dress.

   "...It's still acceptable." Oliver smacked his lips, suddenly feeling less scary.

   Some even felt that it was a good decision for Lu Li to bring home such an exquisite ghost lady...

  Ana floated from Oliver's side to Lu Li's back. The latter was relieved and stumbled, "Then this Miss Ghost... is now a member of our detective agency?"

   "That's right." Lu Li said without raising his head.

   He opened the title page of the book, but his eyebrows gradually wrinkled. He quickly flipped through a few pages and then turned the book over and showed it to Oliver: "What is this?"

   "The history of the growth of the Principality of the Ellen Peninsula."

  Oliver shrank his neck and leaned back. He was illiterate, but it didn't affect him counting the words on it. One, two, three, four, five... nine words are correct. The bookstore owner also said it was this book.

   "Then did anyone tell you..." Lu Li closed the book and threw it on the dining table. "This book is a long novel."

   "Uh...what do you mean?" The word was beyond Oliver's comprehension.

   "It means fantasy literature." Anna, who was floating behind Lu Li and her eyes fell from his shoulders, said casually, "The content in it is all fiction."

  Sasha—

  Oliver scratched his head, as if he understood, but he didn't.

  Lu Li looked at the remaining books, "My Love History with Baron Joseph", "One Hundred Fables", "Roadster Harbor Style", and "Martin and the Dog".

   He didn't think there was anything he needed in these books.

   "That's all."

   Even so, Lu Li turned over a few pages to make sure that there was no knowledge in it, so he gave up.

   Maybe because of Anna's reasons, Oliver was a lot more polite to his boss, and whispered: "The bookstore owner said that the ones you want are all sold out."

   "What about other bookstores?"

   "The same thing, they don't sell those historical and geography books anymore."

   "Sold out...the library burned down...what a coincidence." Lu Li whispered, tilted his head and asked Anna. "Do you remember the general history?"

  Anna comes from the upper class, and usually comes into contact with some books and has a teacher to impart knowledge.

"I do not remember……"

  Ana said humbly, "I forgot a lot of unimportant memories after waking up..."

   "Is that so." Lu Li nodded, but didn't give up.

   There are schools in this world, and there are several in Belfast alone, and it’s not just fairy tales all day long.

   "Speaking of which, I seem to have remembered something... I remember that my mother had a similar conversation with a certain government worker." Anna suddenly spoke up, her expression was slightly confused, and she fell into memory.

  Lu Li didn't ask aloud, waiting quietly for Anna to recall.

   "I remember, that government officer asked my mother to destroy some exhibits related to history."

   "Related to history? Why did he do this?"

   "I don't know...I just overheard some behind the door."

"and then?"

   "My mother doesn't agree, but these guys in black uniforms are tough..." Anna bit her lower lip lightly, her clear eyes dimmed a little, as if thinking that her mother was gone.

   "Wait a minute, you said they were wearing black uniforms?" Lu Li noticed a key word, and his black eyes narrowed. After getting a nod from Anna, he asked, "Do you remember if they have armbands?"

  Anna tilted her head slightly: "A half-open eye?"

   This coincides with the group of people Lu Li had seen at the port.

  The night watchmen are also in black uniforms, and the armband is an eye. The only difference is that the former's eyes are fully opened, while the latter's eyes are only half-opened in Anna's description.

  If they are the Night Watch, then the question...why should the Night Watch forbid people to know history?

   The duty of the night watchman is to protect the town and solve the weirdness. Their office has nothing to do with history in any way, unless... history goes wrong.

   In other words, history is weird.

   But this kind of speculation is too exaggerated and unreasonable, even Lu Li would not dare to regard it as a possibility.

   was temporarily in the bottom of his heart, and Lu Li paid attention to the current matter: "Can the book be returned?"

   "It doesn't seem possible...but I'm willing to try it!" Oliver quickly changed his words and couldn't wait to get out of here.

   Although Anna is pretty and cute, she is a ghost.

  Like a piece of shit, a made-up tulip, no matter how beautiful, is just a disgusting shit.

   This description is frowned upon.

  Oliver was in a hurry to pack a few books, but an envelope fluttered from the books.

"what is this?"

  Lu Li picked up the envelope that fell on the table.

"Uh……"

  Oliver glanced at Anna with a guilty conscience, and pursed his dry lips: "This is a letter from Mrs. Lu... Slavic to you. Then I will return the book, Mr. Lu Li, and Miss Anna before I return!"

  Oliver finished speaking and hurried out, leaving the detective agency,

   On the other side, Lu Li retracted his gaze, opened the envelope in Anna's curiosity, took out a piece of kraft paper sprayed with perfume, and unfolded it.
