Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 321

"What's up."

   "Oh don't be so cold, listen, I have a big deal that you'll be interested in!"

   To a certain extent, Marcus is very professional. He usually uses the word "entrustment" to describe it. This time he said a big deal, indicating that this time it is likely to be a real big deal.

  Lu Li didn't speak, waiting for him to continue.

   Marcus on the other side waited for more than ten seconds and couldn't help asking: "Hi? Are you still there?"

"exist."

"Uh... you're not curious about what it is, let me tell you directly, you know Baron Joseph, who is famous in the Ellen Peninsula recently, right? She is recruiting exorcists! You may not know how rich this beautiful baron is, Let me tell you, her assets could buy a dozen streets in Belfast!"

   "And Baron Joseph has always been a big spender, I can already predict how much we'll get paid when we successfully complete the commission! Dude, we're going to make a fortune!"

   "What is the entrusted content?"

   "I don't know yet, it may be long-term protection or solving troubles for her, whichever is great... This news has spread in the eastern part of the Ellen Peninsula, and many exorcists are rushing to Agate Lake."

"many people?"

"Of course, this time it's an open recruitment, and Joseph will choose the person she thinks is suitable, it may be one or several, but we will have many competitors. How about the commission fee? Are you excited by what I said!"

  Emotional change is of course impossible, but Lu Li is really interested, he really needs money now.

   "When?" Lu Li asked.

   "In a day's time, the Baron's Manor will start a dance tomorrow night, and all exorcists who are interested in commissions will be there!"

  Marcus paused: "Wait, I remember that you and Baron Joseph seemed like..."

  Marcus does know a lot.

"No."

"I haven't had anything yet... well, when I didn't say it. Then... don't forget to rush over in the afternoon, and my assignment! I'll call you earlier the day after tomorrow, although you're unlikely to forget it. But...hehe, you know, just in case. This commission won't be needed for a long time if we get it—"

   The voice stopped abruptly, and Lu Li hung up the phone.

"Um?"

   Anna in the kitchen appeared.

"fine."

"Oh."

  Anna's head retracted behind the door frame.

   It was not yet six o'clock, and the sky was still slightly bright, because there was no rain and the sky was brighter than the previous days. However, in the rainy season, the storm will come, and it will be as dark as evening at eight in the morning.

   The sound of boiling water just wafted from the kitchen, and while the food was not ready, Lu Li called someone.

   After a long delay, Jojo's voice came from the other end of the microphone.

   "There is something for you to investigate."

  Lu Li told Jojo about the commission of Baron Joseph, and asked her to investigate the specific content of the commission, and offered a reward 1.5 times higher than the market price.

   Qiaoqiao happily took it and told Lu Li that he would tell him about the situation before the night, whether it was found or not.

   Hanging up the phone, Lu Li tore off another neat page from the half-torn notebook, and wrote the content on it.

  【I am Lu Li, I have received your reply. 】

  【Thank you for the way you provide, I will follow the content when needed. 】

  【Do you know about the incident in the port of Zenster? If you know the details and can tell me, I would be very grateful. 】

  【I set up a shelter in the Elm Forest outside Belfast, let me know when you are going. I will tell you the location. 】

   After writing the content and confirming that there is no missing information, Lu Li dried the ink on the paper, folded it and put it in a brand new envelope, and wrote the recipient Remy & Jimmy on the envelope.

   For Remi and Jimmy, Lu Li's initial attitude was not to resist, not to touch. They represent variables, and variables are often associated with trouble.

   But now that the world is collapsing is a foregone conclusion, as the end draws near, engaging with them is not necessarily a bad thing.

   After all, they have been showing goodwill to Lu Li, and Lu Li has also helped them a lot——

   They are friends.

  If Remy & Jimmy didn't hold ill intentions and officially arrived in the real world, Lu Li will have two more weird companions.

   As for why Lu Li revealed the information about the refuge to them... In theory, the more weirdness there is on the cliff, the safer it is.

   Half an hour later, Anna took the pot and put it on the dining table, Lu Li took off his coat, went to the kitchen to wash his hands, sat at the dining table to eat, and then left the detective agency with Anna.

  Rent a carriage and pick up the four Jones brothers to head to the cliff again.

This time there was no more annoying sound of gouges. The Jones brothers observed for a while, and according to Lu Li's request, they began to set up a deep-sea stone wall outside the excavated space first, and crushed the remaining waste after cutting. After the water is poured, it is used as a filler to build into the space between the stones.

  Because it was no longer noisy, Lu Li stayed in the cave, watching them busy with mud and building walls, and occasionally helped them fill the wooden barrels with sea water.

The    Jones brothers were very fast. An hour later, a watershed-like dark wall appeared in the depths of the cave. 10 cubic centimeters of stones were neatly stacked, and a door was reserved in the middle.

  I don't have a proper idea on how to make Lu Li's door, maybe you can ask the old craftsman.

  The walls were piled up, and the Jones brothers began to lay the ground, this time more quickly, but what ended them was not the completion of the laying, but the exhaustion of deep sea stones.

  Only seven-tenths of the ground is paved.

   "How far is it?" Lu Li asked.

   The boss thought for a while and gave Lu Li a relatively accurate number: "At least four boxes of this kind of stone are needed."

   "Then first."

   After obtaining the deep sea stone, Lu Li can lay it by himself. After watching it for a long time, he basically learned how to stack the wall. It's not complicated, ordinary people can do it too, it's just slow because of rusty.

  There is nothing to do at the refuge point, but it is still early, it is not yet ten o'clock in the morning. The Jones brothers had already received the payment from Lu Li in advance, and they felt a little uneasy, so they offered to help Lu Li expand the cellar.

   It happened that tools like pickaxes were brought over by them.

   Lu Li did not refuse, and went back to the carriage to wait.

  The four Jones brothers dug until one o'clock in the afternoon, and they expanded the one-meter-deep cellar in the cave to a size of nearly nine square meters, which is completely sufficient for use.

   Not in a hurry to move the things in the cave into the shelter, Lu Li drove the Jones brothers down the mountain.

   There are four deep-sea stone gaps. According to the current increase, Lu Li needs to earn 50,000 shillings to complete the basic defense construction of the refuge point.

   It seemed inevitable to participate in Baron Joseph's invitation.
