Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 616 One hundred and ninety three.

  【The unknown deep sea is as mysterious as a dream - the great explorer Solasylvia Simm】

  Humans spend one third of their time immersed in a magnificent and bizarre world called dreamland.

   Countless poets and authors refer to dreams as the second world of human beings. Although dreams are broken, irrelevant, and most of the time just projections of the real world, there is one thing that people agree on: dreams may have mysterious powers.

  Lu Li met two people who were related to the mysterious power of dreams.

   The "Eternal" who may have dreamed for millions of years now, and Doreen in front of him.

   "When will you fall asleep next time?" Lu Li asked.

  Doreen shook her head: "I don't know...it could be a while, it could be a few hours later."

   Narcolepsy makes Doreen's sleep time uncertain.

  Lu Li nodded and accepted the request: "Next, Doreen will follow us. If you fall asleep, we will check the surroundings."

   "I beg you all to solve the nightmare..." Dom didn't have any objection, he clearly knew how powerful Lu Li and Anna were. If even they can't detect the approaching dark shadow in the dream...

  Lu Li didn't go to the dark passage to observe the fork in the road. If it was related to the Bottomless Abyss, the presence of Lu Li couldn't make the situation better.

  Dom went to the city hall to report the situation of the secret passage to the city lord. Doreen and Luli Anna returned to the guest room.

   "Take it off, it won't be used around us." Anna said to Doreen who entered the guest room wearing a protective suit.

   The latter nodded lightly, took off the bird's beak mask and took off the protective clothing, revealing the image of a frail girl of fifteen or sixteen. It's hard to imagine her once cheerful side.

   She sat quietly in front of the deserted window, not disturbing Lu Li and Anna, with an indelible weight between her brows.

  If there is a painter here, maybe he can make a painting that can be called a work of art.

  The new situation of the dark passage came soon after—the exorcists blocked the fork with wooden boards and continued to explore to the exit of the dark passage. It was an ancient sentry tower in the eastern wilderness of the city-state, and the blood-colored dandelions also shrouded there, but the number was limited.

   There is on the edge of the dandelion colony, and the scavengers continue to explore, looking for areas that are not polluted by dandelions.

   The follow-up plan will be for workers to reach the other end through a secret passage and build rudimentary buildings around them that can block them. If the scavengers have good news, such as successfully finding the uninfected area, the plan will make small changes, such as creating a corridor to the uninfected area.

  Anna turned on the radio, and the broadcast kept repeating to remind the citizens not to go out while hiding in the houses, and announced part of the evacuation plan to ease the anxiety of the citizens.

During the    period, Valentine and Dom came to Lu Li and asked how likely it was for a strange invasion at night—the broken Lund could no longer bear the invasion from other strange things. But if the evacuation plan starts in the afternoon, not only will there not be enough time to establish a temporary safety zone on the other side of the dark passage, but the people will be torn in two.

  Lu Li couldn't answer Valentine, because it was more elusive than the weather.

   Valentine sighed and left, and Dom followed after saying a few words of concern for his sister.

   At two o'clock in the afternoon, Flareund, who was surrounded by disaster and in distress, finally got some good news. They managed to get in touch with St. Ann's Bunker, 230 miles east of Lund, which was not in the wind direction of the Dandelion, and promised to take in the citizens of Lund.

  The scavengers also explored the distance between the exit of the dark passage and the periphery of the dandelion group: 13 miles.

   A long, but not let people despair distance.

   Fortunately, there is no shortage of building materials for the time being. They demolished the unowned house, carefully sterilized it with flames, and sent it to the other end through a dark channel to build a long corridor.

   However, even if all the workers are dispatched, the night will not stop, at least tomorrow will be noon to build a 13-mile long corridor.

  Citizens have to spend the night in Lund in fear - though some are not included.

  Anna walked to the window and looked down at the square with Doreen.

   A group of nobles and wealthy people gathered in the square wearing better protective clothing, and asked the city lord Valentine to let them evacuate first. Dom stepped forward to explain, but was slapped by a lady. If it weren't for the jeers and laughter that he stumbled over, perhaps the lady would have let the squire beat him half to death.

  The people in the square were angry and helpless. Although the city of Flalund was destroyed by the dandelions, there was no order. One day before the order completely collapsed, these people were destined to be privileged.

   Didn't look at the city lord and didn't say anything, just let the scavenger take these arrogant guys into the garden and leave directly from the dark passage?

   But Valentine also made his own protest: he never showed up in front of this group of nobles from beginning to end.

   "It's hard to imagine that there are such stupid people at such a time..." Anna said with disdain towards them.

   "It's not stupid, it's just that they care more about themselves than their reputation." Lu Li, who was flipping through Lilia's books in front of the fireplace, replied.

   Fame is the most important and most useless thing.

Aristocrats and rich people don’t worry about their reputations. Bad reputations can’t trip them. Even if they can, as long as some insignificant, insignificant, and worthless things are leaked out of their hands, those commoners will gratefully advertise that this noble is a good person. .

   "Human..." Anna murmured while watching Dom in the square being comforted by others.

   At this moment, Doreen's head in front of the window suddenly drooped and fell to one side.

  The invisible hand held her up, Anna raised her eyes and looked at Lu Li: "She fell asleep."

   "Take it to the bed."

   Lu Li by the fireplace buckled the book, got up and walked to the bedside, took off the sanity counter and put it on Doreen's wrist.

   There was no sound, he looked at Anna.

   "I can't feel anything..." Anna replied, staring at the peaceful sleeping appearance of the girl with her brows stretched out: "She didn't wake up, maybe it wasn't that nightmare?"

"Maybe."

  Lu Li opened the door of the guest room and asked the waiter outside to call Dom and bring the bell to wake Doreen.

   A few minutes later, Dom hurried up with a worn-out bell that he had taken from somewhere.

   "Do you want to wake her up..." He looked at his sister distressedly and asked urgently.

   "Wait, this is just asleep," Lu Li replied. "Will there be any side effects to waking her up?"

   "May fall asleep again..."

   "Then wake up."

  Lu Li stepped away from the bed, Dom stepped forward and shook the bell gently.

   ding bell - ding bell -

   The same comforting chime of the fireplace blared over, and Doreen awoke slowly to the chime.

   "I... fell asleep again?" She looked around in confusion and sat up from the bed.

  Dom put down the bell and breathed a sigh of relief.

   "What did you dream about?" Lu Li asked.
