Bizarre Detective Agency

Chapter 1376: 18. Ghoul Lu Li

  Although they don't want to admit it, they must face the truth: the eastern part of Midnight City really invaded the southern part.

  They have to figure out if this is some kind of heuristic or a major invasion.

   "We still have room for maneuver in the former, and the latter can only leave with the weirdness of signing a contract."

   Head-to-head is the most stupid behavior.

   Hunters who harvest enough berries to feed themselves should no longer venture deep into dangerous jungles. So Lu Li will lead Wei Qi back to the farm until the True Sight Eyeball arrives.

   While the ghoul group and Mist Manor were still trying to investigate, Lu Li and the others decisively retreated to the farm outside Midnight City with the weirdness that signed the contract and some weirdness that did not sign the contract but was willing to follow.

   "You don't think it's a coincidence?"

  Lu Li asked Claire who got into the hood and turned into a baby bird again.

   "How could it be such a coincidence, they invaded the south as soon as we arrived."

  Lu Li inspected what he was carrying that might be exposed.

  Humanity, the apocalypse and the apostles, the body itself.

  Lu Li was able to come all the way from Black Box Town to Midnight City to prove that they won't be exposed... So leaks appear around?

  Lu Li looked around the team, scanning for Alina and Ophelia whose identities he knew, and the creep monsters he might know.

   Returning to the farm, Lu Li placed Wei Wei in the manor.

  If a full-blown invasion of the south follows, they'll fall back to Ghosttown. If the invasion is slow, they can continue to contain the exiting monsters until the invasion spreads outside the city before evacuating.

   But instead of sitting still, Lu Li prefers to investigate why the eastern part of Midnight City invaded the devastated southern part: the activated Alchemy Tower stands on the ground, and the strange ethnic group has not yet recovered from the turmoil Lu Li brought last time.

  The best case scenario is that the weirdoes choose to migrate from top to bottom, to the south where there are fewer hostile forces.

  The worst situation is that the eastern part is integrated by a powerful existence and spreads outward.

  Claire seemed to have anticipated what Lu Li was going to do, and took out the alienation potion from the study.

   "If the south has been occupied or I haven't returned when the scouts approach the manor, take them back to Ghost Town first."

  Lu Li pulled off the cork and drank the creamy alienation potion.

  Claire fell towards Lu Li who was gradually shrinking—

   "Little—ghoul?!"

  Claire, who was about to fall, flapped her wings and flew up screaming, "Why a ghoul!"

  Sharp teeth and claws, curved protrusions covered with **** cervical spine, scarlet protruding eyes, and the black robe hanging loosely on the body reveals the fascia-wrapped heart in the chest cavity after taking off.

   "After taking the alienation potion, I feel that I can control the mimicry."

  The sound made through the throat and mouth is like bone stubble rubbing.

   "That can't become a ghoul!"

  Claire seems to have a certain prejudice against ghouls, and this stems from the childhood shadow brought by her mother: never stand next to the chest full of organs, digesta, and feces when Chrissy dissects a ghoul.

   "Even a ghoul I can be...evil."

  Claire hesitated and couldn't get down, and shouted to Ophelia next to him: "Ophelia, can you please cover my eyes? I really can't stand the psychological test."

   "He just looks like a ghoul." Ophelia said, and then looked at Lu Li, "You didn't mimic the plague."

  Lu Li didn't have the filthy plague and rotten stench that ghouls were born with. It made him look unusually...clean and frail.

   A ghoul without the ability to infect the plague can't even beat an adult.

  Lu Li asked Elena to take the meat from Eumendis's body, crush it and smear it on her body.

  Now Lu Li doesn't look so malnourished.

   "Are you going to join the ghoul group?" Elena asked, "They won't accept a strange ghoul."

   "But if there is chaos, they won't notice the extra member."

  And most importantly—Lu Li can protect himself, or leave at any time.

   "But how do you communicate with them?"

   "I can understand the language of ghouls." Lu Li raised his sharp claws like scissors and tapped his skull, "After becoming a ghoul."

   "Lighthouse?"

  Claire's guess was affirmed by Lu Li, she deliberately said jealously: "What does this world want to do, make you the savior?"

   "Lu Li is already." Ophelia agreed.

   After handing over the farm affairs to Ophelia and Elena, Lu Li sneaked into the collapsed wine cellar tunnel and quietly returned to the castle.

  The castle maintains the clutter of their retreat, wandering spooks sneaking into the gardens, stealing food from the table or each other. Lu Li ignored them, walked through the castle, and quietly approached the ghoul's lair in the dark.

   Along the way, there are many strange people weaving traps waiting for Lu Li to throw himself into the trap, but Lu Li is not a real ghoul.

  As a ghoul as weak as a human, it is very reasonable to have the same cursed title as a human.

  Easy to avoid or ignore the traps along the way, as he approached the ghoul's lair, the attacks Lu Li encountered began to decrease.

   The ghoul cleaned up all the hidden dangers and food around the lair.

   Lu Li broke into a church that was several hundred meters away from the ghoul's lair, and crawled past the spacious auditorium and the dusty idol, and climbed to the top of the tower, grabbing the spire pointing towards the lead cloud with his claws.

   While Lu Li was looking at the high wall of flesh and blood, the ghoul's lair seemed to be mobilized, several entrances squirmed and opened, and the ghouls were busy in and out of the nest like a colony of ants.

   Now is an opportune time to infiltrate a ghoul lair.

  Lu Li climbed down the eaves, fell back to the ground from the collapsed wall, and joined a team carrying wood debris.

   None of the ghouls noticed that there was an extra companion among them.

   A ghoul missing a front tooth unloads the basket and dumps the wood residue. Just as he was about to grab the basket, a claw stretched out from the side and snatched the basket away.

   The ghoul was in a daze, mumbling something and crawling away.

  Lu Li understood the meaning of the grunt—to laugh at himself for not being lazy.

   Ghouls aren't as stupid as they look.

  Following the ghoul into the ghoul's lair that he had glimpsed in the dream, Lu Li realized why the toothless ghoul released such emotions.

   Ghoul commoners, or ghoul slaves. They are the real bottom of the ghoul colony, slaves, hard labor, hard work, all the dirty work is done by them.

   Like now. Lu Li's alienated ghouls are only less than 150 centimeters after the spine is bent. It's not special to mix with ghouls and civilians, and follow them to transport wood residue and gravel.

  Ghoul warriors with skeletons and sharp claws covered in tendons and dura mater patrol around.

   Lu Li, who successfully infiltrated the lair, needs time to investigate, but pretending to be a ghoul civilian can't do anything.

  If the alienation potion can control the form advanced...

  When Lu Li thought this way, his flesh and blood suddenly squirmed, bones collided with each other, fascia came out of the skin, and his body was about to grow.

   Then suddenly suppressed this tendency to transform into a ghoul warrior.
