Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 568 One hundred and forty-five. Later

   Lilia Toyaragon.

   Lilia, who had been calling herself an anonymous person for decades, began to call herself that.

   But she is still just an ordinary old man wearing old civilian clothes with years left on her face.

   She was grateful for the news that Lu Li brought, so she served Lu Li like a servant. Lu Li had to tell her that Anna would take good care of herself, so she dispelled the only repayment that the old man could do.

  Lilia seemed to see that Lu Li was very interested in Princess Roland's past, so she told him everything she knew, and vaguely asked about Princess Roland's current situation.

  Although she knew that this ancestor became a "god", Lilia, who was only a commoner except for her bloodline, knew nothing about some secrets.

   After Lu Li told her that she knew the price of being weird, Lilia replied that she was old and had nothing to cherish, including her life.

   So Lu Li told Lilia about the weird system, and briefly told Lilia the origin of the Swamp Mother and the subsequent split between the old and new evil gods in Shadow Town.

During the    period, Lu Li and Anna felt a faint sense of gaze coming around, and the Swamp Mother noticed that they mentioned their names.

Most of the    evil gods have this ability. The stronger the presence, the stronger the induction. If it is the evil **** that has existed since ancient times, just mentioning its name will be instantly deprived of consciousness by chaos and evil.

  The Swamp Mother, who was forced to split, accepted the legacy of the old mother, but the consumption of division and confrontation left less than half of her strength. It is even imperceptible to talk about its own existence.

   This time it will be sensed because Lu Li has its mark on him.

   The consciousness in the shadows lingered around Lu Li, and two invisible threads were scattered to lead Anna and Lilia.

   The consciousness that led to Anna was shattered by her aura before it even got close, and the consciousness that led to Lilia was haunted and returned to Lu Li, leaving a weak and incomplete voice in his heart, which disappeared silently.

【familiar……】

   Lu Li told Lilia that the mother of the swamp had just come, and the latter was so excited that bloodshot eyes appeared in her eyes: "If I don't get to the swamp road, tell Princess Roland that her descendants have never forgotten the glory of their ancestors."

"I will."

  Lu Li agreed to Lilia's last wish, and watched the trembling old man leave the room.

The whole afternoon after   , Lu Li didn't go out again and stayed in the room.

  Anna couldn't understand it. If they don't go out just to understand the content of the council, they can also know this through the merchants at the top of the cliff, and there is no need to take the risk to the inland king city.

   After all, how do you think most of the exorcists get together, those weird and pagans with wisdom can't be indifferent.

   "The original plan was to go out, but the hostility towards the weirdness of the Lord's Continent exceeded my expectations." Lu Li replied.

  As evening comes, the street lamps on the streets come on one after another, dispelling the looming darkness.

   "Because... me..." Anna felt sad and thought of other things: "Then let's go back now? I always have a hunch that something bad will happen."

   "So we live here." Lu Li said. He has the same unease, so at the end of this street is the city gate. And a city wall could not stop Anna.

  After dinner, night falls completely, and then it sets off the prosperity of the city that never sleeps.

  Ana looked at the street with people coming and going outside the window, and suddenly suggested to go for a walk outside, it won't go very far——

  Lu Li agreed to Anna's request, went back upstairs to greet Lilia, and left the hotel with the oil lamp and the "lighthouse".

   At night, when the lanterns are on, the afternoon drizzle makes everything wet, and the bluestone road glows with hazy water, reflecting the silhouettes of street lamps and pedestrians.

   Humidity and coolness penetrate into the nasal cavity, the taste of Ellen King City and Belfast are completely different - thicker and more profound.

   There are many specialties here, and a button doll stuffed with black cotton and shredded fabric is unexpectedly popular. Vendors tie the dolls to a rope and hold up wooden sticks to hoist them. This allusion comes from people who reclaimed new land a long time ago. They hung dolls on the doorstep of their house to represent that the house had an owner.

  Anna suggested buying one to hang outside the shelter, so Lu Lihua bought a little girl doll with brown braids for 5 shillings.

  Rough linen as skin and button eyes doesn't give the doll any weirdness, it's just an ordinary little object.

   Put away the button puppets, Lu Li and Anna, who had already reached the crossroads, were about to go back.

   At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the street ahead.

  …

   knock knock --

   "Mrs. Jonathan?"

   A middle-aged couple stood in front of the door and knocked gently on the door.

   "Maybe they're not at home," said the bald husband, because there was no light in the window.

  The wife said strangely: "But I told Mrs. Jonathan when I visited in the morning..."

   "Maybe there is an urgent matter, let's come back tomorrow."

   "Hmm." The wife put down her palm and pushed the wooden door subconsciously.

  Squeak-

   A gap was revealed in the door, and a bright oil light penetrated into the gap.

   "Is the door unlocked?" The wife asked in surprise, "Will something happen to the Jonathan family?"

The husband's smile disappeared, he turned his head around, and saw the police officers not far away, he quickly pulled his wife over and said, "Mr. police officer! One of my wife's friends has no lights at home. They should be at home at this time. Shall we go see?"

   The constable looked at the dark window pointed by the bald man and nodded.

"Five Wangcheng children, afraid of the thick fog, went to the fire; the flames were haunted until they died, and only four of the five remained. Four Wangcheng children went out in groups and suffered great disasters; they swallowed one blood-stained, and the four were only three. Three Wangcheng children , the house was plagued with disaster; dead bodies suddenly fell from the sky, and only two of the three remained—"

   A group of children ran after shouting something.

  The police officer looked at the children who had burrowed into the crowd, feeling a little uncomfortable. He had heard it many times today...as if all the children suddenly learned this nursery rhyme that disturbed the adults.

   shook his head, walked to the door with the oil lamp, and gently opened the door with the top of his foot.

  Squeak——Yeah——

   In the slow and elongated sound, an arm carrying an oil lamp entered the house, followed by the police officer who came in carefully and the couple who followed behind.

  Call——

  The invisible wind blows, disturbing the blooming dandelion fields in the room, they leave the farmland, rise aimlessly, and drift everywhere.

   The sanity counter on the constable's wrist didn't go off, which made him less disturbed.

   Quietly walked a few steps, and suddenly a shriveled, strange black object like a mop appeared on the edge of the light of the oil lamp. It was covered with fluffy fluff like fluff.

  The air there also seemed to have a layer of mist, and it was hazy to see the real thing.
