Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 551 One Hundred and Twenty Eight

   The Peters brothers lived in the civic area of ​​Tower Wind.

  The wooden houses and street lamps are also being built here. The longhouse is the most popular building after the fog emerges from the deep sea. Not only can a single-family house not be able to accommodate too many people, it is also difficult to escape to the neighbor’s house when the light inside the house unexpectedly goes out.

   found their place of residence, Anna found the ancient book hidden in the wooden box under the bed in the uninhabited house, flipped through a few pages, and confirmed that it could not harm Lu Li.

   "It's very broken." Ana handed it to Lu Li.

  The ancient book seems to have been eaten by animals, leaving clear torn marks on the fracture. Only a few pages survived. And a few pages are still missing most of the information.

  The only thing presented in full is the evil priest used by Jonah Peters.

  Sacrifices can deprive other lives of vitality to supplement the designated existence, but the price is astonishingly expensive, as can be seen from Jonah Peters' sacrifice of more than a dozen people just to restore Mary's body.

  Anna pushed Lu Li out of Tafengcheng City. Lu Li in his wheelchair was quietly flipping through the broken pieces of broken paper.

   Through just a few words, Lu Li judged that most of the records in this ancient book were such evil and barbaric sacrifices.

  Lu Li gave the book to Anna for her to destroy.

   "Won't you stay?" Anna asked.

   "I remember it, and it's better to destroy it." Lu Li replied.

   A gust of breeze blew, and this severely missing ancient book fell into pieces and fell on the damp stone road, passing Luli and Anna gradually away.

   A few minutes later, a carriage bearing the Reeves family drove by quickly, crushing the soaked pieces.

   This carriage had just left Jonah Peters' home, and after asking passersby, it went straight to pursue Lu Li.

   But until the carriage arrived under the city wall, Reeves and his daughter did not see the figure sitting in the wheelchair.

   "He may still be in Tower Wind."

   Viscount Reeves said in a low voice, and asked the guard standing beside him: "Did you see the person in the wheelchair leaving the city?"

   "Just a while ago..." replied the guard who recalled a moment.

   "We should still be able to catch him. The groom—"

   "No need for your father." Mary's gentle voice came from the carriage.

   "He doesn't seem to want to meet us, and it's hard to find him when we go out of town."

   "Always ask clearly." The Viscount frowned. He didn't think that the purpose of the tricky guy was just to save a few unimportant civilians, no matter if the guy was an exorcist or "He" in the priest's mouth.

   "It's not that I got nothing, at least we already know his name, right?" Mary replied softly.

   Viscount Reeves loved his daughter very much, so when Mary was involved, it was difficult for him to keep his composure.

   But just like what Mary said, the guy named Lu Li didn't want to tell the truth and didn't want to contact them.

   He could only remember the name reluctantly, and took the carriage back to the Viscount Manor.

  The carriage drove past the breeze and lifted the corner of the curtain, and the faint whispers drifted away with the wind.

   "Maybe we will meet again. I hope you will be willing to communicate next time..."

  …

   "I thought you would meet Mary."

   Hundreds of meters above the ground, Anna said.

  The veins of the earth extend all around, and migrating human beings can be seen on the small road.

   "No need."

  Mary had countless problems. Although Lu Li had plenty of time, he didn't intend to waste it on meaningless conversations.

   Especially if he can't change Mary's status quo.

  Anna stopped talking about this topic, and instead asked: "How far are we from Ellen's King City."

   "Less than two hundred miles."

   "You can be there before morning," Anna said. "We came too early."

The meeting of the    Exorcist Association will start the day after tomorrow, and Anna will be able to travel from the Elm Forest at the end of the Ellen Peninsula to the Ellen Kingdom in the east of the Lord's Continent in less than a morning.

   They would be faster if it wasn't for a few stops on the road in a few cities.

   "Sufficient preparation time allows us to deal with some troubles calmly." Lu Li is used to planning everything in advance, such as hoarding resources, such as shelters. Even if the plan usually changes - at least it doesn't stop his thoughts.

  Thinking coherently helps you stay in shape.

   After traveling for a while, they were already very close to the city of Ellen. That majestic, thousand-year-old ancient city may appear at the end of the earth at any time.

  On the ground, small towns and villages that depended on the existence of King Ellen began to become common, scattered around the barren land that was supposed to be a large farmland, and the small towns and villages have long been uninhabited and uninhabited.

   is lucky to be close to the city, maybe.

   Soon after, a city surrounded by ancient walls appeared on the horizon.

  It's hard to compare it with Belfast or Shymfast. The vastness of Ellen King City is so shocking that it even makes people think that it can compete with the weird and is the strongest reef in the shallow sea.

   "No wonder people think that hiding in the city is a way to avoid the weird, rather than using the city as a bigger can of meat..."

  Ana whispered, and suddenly heard Lu Li's murmur in her ear.

   "Maybe it doesn't need to be weird..."

   "What do you mean?" Anna was puzzled.

"King Ellen has a population of about two million. Residents of small villages and small towns will go to cities. Residents of cities will go to larger cities. King Ellen is the core of the entire kingdom, and there are not too many people who go to refuge. It won't be difficult to double the population of King Ellen."

   "The King City of Ellen may be able to easily accommodate all the refugees, but it is difficult to solve the consumption of doubled food and resources, especially in the disaster of plants, so."

   Lu Li's eyes fell on the ground, on the cobweb-like road around King Ellen.

   "The supplies in the royal city won't last long."

   The trouble doesn’t just come from the outside world.

  Anna once again looked at the vast ancient city in the distance, but this time, there was no other emotion than pity.

   When she was only a dozen miles away from the city of Ellen, Anna landed in the wilderness that was once farmland, returned to the road, and blended into the crowd of cars on the road.

  Like Lu Li said, people are crowding into Ellen King City, and there are hardly any figures on the road leaving in the opposite direction.

   Perhaps because of Lu Li's appearance, or because of the investigator badge on Lu Li's chest, more than one carriage was willing to take Lu Li for a ride.

  Lu Li declined their help, was pushed by Anna, and rushed into the King City of Ellen with the crowd.

   A grey sky hangs over the city.

   There is an investigator base here, and Lu Li intends to go there to inquire about the details of the council. But before that, he and Anna rented a room on the street not far from the city gate.

   Entered the room, the windows were open and the curtains fluttered.

  The Allen King City does not have the constant humidity of the Allen Peninsula. On the contrary, the floors, windowsills and desktops are covered with a layer of dust.

  The inland city is not like the Ellen Peninsula, where the sea breeze can blow away the dust.

   Putting down the luggage, Lu Li and Anna headed to the investigator base.
