Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 502 Seventy-nine. Homecoming

   In the gray and foggy space, only the stone bricks under his feet and Richard, who was rushing with his head down, were clearly visible.

  .

  Richard slammed into Lu Li's chest. Lu Li took a few steps back under the rushing momentum, and suddenly frowned.

  The soles of his hind feet were in the air.

   Sounded the psychic gun that Richard had thrown before, but there was no sound of landing, Lu Li grabbed Richard in front of him, turned the direction, and retreated away from the unknown edge.

  Richard did not notice the problem, he staggered a few steps away from Lu Li, and then took the initiative to move forward in an attempt to make the retreating Lu Li fall——

   His plan was half-successful. The too fast retreat made it difficult for Lu Li to maintain his balance and fell backwards.

   Lu Li knew nothing about fighting, but he knew what to do at this time. The moment he fell, he bent his legs, kicked Richard's lower abdomen, and opened his body.

  嘭——

   A muffled sound of falling came from overhead.

   Lu Li turned around and got up, just like he was getting up, Richard suddenly jumped up again, riding on Lu Li and waving his fists.

   "You should understand me! Only great power can protect everyone!" The fist fell like raindrops, and Richard roared with red eyes.

  Lu Li raised his arms to cover his head, and his calm black eyes stared at Richard through the gap between his arms: "You are right. But you are wrong."

  Richard's physical strength has long been exhausted, and the fist he waving can only make Lu Li feel a little pain. Seizing the gap between the punches, Lu Li turned over with force, turned to hold Richard down, and looked down at the crazy Richard: "Power that can be controlled is power."

  Richard's head tilted back slightly, and suddenly hit Lu Li's forehead hard.

   As if the entire deep-sea ruins were shaking with it, there was a buzzing in the ears. Lu Li leaned back uncontrollably, and Richard took the opportunity to run away from Lu Li and climbed up in confusion.

  !

  Richard raised his leg and kicked Lu Li's lower abdomen, which was lying on the ground. His face flushed because of the excessive force, and he roared, "Why do you think I can't do it!"

   "The rabbit can't understand why the lion doesn't eat grass like it does."

  The vibration of his mind made Lu Li unable to keep his balance, and his clear beating heart squeezed blood to his head and even his eyeballs.

   The feeling of swelling and pain made Lu Li unfamiliar and uncomfortable, but the dizziness was quickly fading.

   "What nonsense are you talking about!"

  The irrational Richard kicked Lu Li again, Lu Li suddenly stretched out his hand to grab his ankle and dragged him.

   One person was exhausted, and the other person’s brain was hit and it was hard to resist. The two seemed to be in the most primitive and backward fight, rolling in this foggy space.

   No one noticed that they were approaching the eerie edge.

  Lu Li realized that when dealing with a mad Richard, the more complicated the words were, the more difficult it would be for him to understand. Direct may be more effective, but also irritates the other person: "Do you think you are better than me?"

   "That's because you are a timid guy!" Richard opened his mouth and bit Lu Li's arm, but was blocked by the thick woolen coat.

   Lu Li, who was deadlocked with Richard, replied: "A moth to a fire is not brave, and sacrificing others is not justice."

   "I'll never believe in justice like you hypocrites." Richard threw and bit Lu Li's arm and let out a low growl like a beast.

   "I'm just a despicable and unwilling poor man. I want to save many people and gain the praise and trust of those who are sheltered by me!"

   Lu Li's resistance suddenly weakened.

   "From your childhood?"

   He peeped into a corner of Richard's heart at the moment when he finished his words - it seemed to be a ragged, dirty little boy standing on the street but no one cared, his eyes were full of helplessness and sullenness.

  Crazy people often have unfortunate childhoods with twisted minds.

  Street-born Richard, who has never met his parents, seems to be the same.

   Lu Li's words completely angered Richard, and lifted the last tile covering his heart.

   "You are not entitled to know this."

   His head jerked back, but before he could repeat his old trick, Lu Li kicked him away.

Something like    wrapped in cloth fell out of his arms, Richard reached for it subconsciously, and this action saved his life. His body suddenly fell to the edge, and only his outstretched arms lay **** the edge.

   He didn't have the strength to get up, but luckily he wouldn't fall off.

  Broken forehead, Richard squinted his left eye that was dripping with blood, panted and stared at Lu Li, who had fallen out, as if resigning his fate and no longer struggling: "Want to know what that is?"

   "Part of the ancient god." Lu Li replied.

   To be more specific, tentacles, eyeballs, pieces of meat.

   "That's right." Richard grinned with difficulty, the blood on his forehead made him look grim. "Hold it, and you will win the ancient god's body in the end."

   "Or as you keep saying, reject the power... Come on, let me see how you hypocrite will choose."

  Lu Li lowered his head to look at the cloth strip silently, Richard bent over and picked it up with a wide smile on his mouth.

   "I once got this kind of power." Lu Li walked slowly towards Richard and whispered, "It came from a weak evil god."

   "The feeling is indescribable, it doesn't let me fly or manipulate objects, it just fills my soul and makes me feel omnipotent."

  Richard listened carefully, and Lu Li told him at this time: "Yes, as you think, I finally gave up on it."

   "Because this is not a good thing, this power has never belonged to humans. Even if it has no ill intentions against me and wants to protect me, it still cannot change the fact that it is destroying my sanity."

   "Fire doesn't actively harm anything, it just stays there."

  Lu Li stood in front of Richard, looking down at him, and the dark abyss behind him that seemed to be blown by the wind.

   "I stopped you because of everything you did, the people you experimented with in the lunatic asylum, the people you parasitized, the thousands of innocent citizens who died in the port—you claimed to want to protect the world, with all due respect."

   "You can't be trusted."

   Gently raised his hand, the piece of cloth that Richard regarded as everything fell into the abyss together with the contents inside.

Richard lowered his head, his face turned gray and defeated, he suddenly raised his head and laughed madly: "You won...but do you think I will be like the villain in the story, doing a useless fight to give you an epic ending! Don't even think about it!"

  Richard suddenly let go of the arm that grabbed the edge.

   His figure fell quickly, but stopped for a moment.

  The rushing Lu Li grabbed his wrist.

Richard suddenly raised his head at this moment and saw Lu Li's unchanging calmness. He suddenly suppressed all his emotions and said calmly, "The **** tentacles are the key to stepping into this place, and when we reach this coast, it has disappeared. You are safe."

  Richard raised his hand and broke Lu Li's fingers with all his remaining strength.

   "Now...I don't owe you any more!"

   With the last shout, Richard's body fell into darkness.

   The strange wind whimpered past under the abyss, as if saying goodbye to the person without a surname.
