Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 566 One hundred and forty-three. Pain in peace

  The dandelion is as light as a petal of ash.

   It came from a far away place, and the smell attached to it was as if it had drifted to the land with the monsoon, over the mountains and valleys, across the straits and hills, to this inland.

   Its direction is clear and straight - in the center of the gray plain, countless roads lead to the land, and it holds the majestic royal city for dozens of miles.

It's just that the long journey seems to have worn away the last bit of patience of the dandelion, or the humidity of the Allen Plain makes the dandelion heavier, and the dandelion in the sky is getting lower and lower... and finally landed on a carriage. .

  The road extends forward until it reaches the gate of Wangcheng.

   The groom and the passengers in the carriage were unnoticed by the insignificant dandelion falling on the roof, which swayed with the carriage.

  The carriage followed the long dragon in front of the city gate into the king city, and there was another passenger on the roof: Dandelion.

   It fell off and drifted towards the passers-by—

   Now, it's bonus time for the dandelion who made the long trek over the mountains.

  Da da da da da!

   At this moment, the rapid galloping sound of horseshoes sounded, and the galloping carriages rammed through the streets where the crowds were avoiding.

  The carriage stopped in front of a hotel, and a man hurried into the hotel.

  …

   In addition to coming to tell the news of his death, Fulai also had a hint of suspicion against Lu Li. Rhodes was indifferent when Lu Li was almost dragged away by the drowning ghost, and by coincidence died tragically two hours later.

   But he didn't see the calm and unexpected emotion on Lu Li's face.

  Lu Li's eyes drooped slightly: "Is it weird?"

   "No, it was an accident... an accident full of coincidences."

   Maybe he thought too much, the whole thing has nothing to do with Lu Li.

Fulai thought and told Lu Li what happened last night: "They quickly found out the truth: there was a dead mouse in the backyard of the tavern. It might have been starving when it was alive, accidentally opened the wooden barrel containing kerosene, and drank some oil. Later, Rhode's carriage was used as a storage point, and a lot of kerosene was transported there."

"The kerosene in the tavern will be checked several times in the backyard every night. If he usually finds that the kerosene barrel was bitten by a mouse, he happened to be lazy that night and didn't check it. After Rhode separated from us, he sat on a kerosene bed. The carriage, coincidentally, a drunk beggar rushed out of the street and knocked down the oil lamps, igniting the kerosene..."

   "The beggar disappeared after that. Nearby residents and buddies all know the beggar. He always wanders around Meteorite Street... so it's not a conspiracy."

Foley sighed, they were drinking together a few hours ago: "Unfortunate Rhodes, when we were in the pub, he also said that he would bring a gift to apologize to you tomorrow, you just terrified him when you fell into the water, who knows …”

   "When is his funeral?" Lu Li asked calmly.

   "Five days later. It will take a long time to tell him apart from the burnt wagon..."

   "I'm too late to participate, please send my apology to his family for me."

   "I'll talk to them."

  The death of his friend made Foley depressed, and he no longer had the time to talk, he walked out of the hotel and took a carriage to leave.

  Lilia seemed to guess something, and after eating her breakfast, she would go to the upstairs room.

   "You shouldn't do this." Lu Li said to Anna who was sitting beside him.

   A whisper came from the black robe: "It wasn't me who killed him."

   "It's me." Lu Li replied calmly.

After the black robe trembled lightly for a long time, a slightly excited voice sounded: "I tried to put it down, but I couldn't control my hatred... Whenever I recall that you were struggling in the lake, and he was indifferent on the shore, I felt It will invade your senses...I can't tolerate anyone hurting you, even if you just stand by."

   And at that time, Anna was not by Lu Li's side, so she could only blame herself and Rhodes. If she blames herself, she will fall into the abyss faster...

  Lu Li silently swallowed the last piece of bread: "We owe the Tesla family and Tesla."

  Anna didn't find an excuse for "Lord will die sooner or later", she knew that it was useless to Lu Li: "You can find a chance to repay."

   "I hope so." After taking the last sip of the broth, Lu Li and Anna left the dining table and returned to the room on the second floor.

  Anna sat down next to Lu Li and gently touched Lu Li's shoulder: "Are you angry?"

   "I don't want to see you fall into the abyss." Lu Li replied.

   "Even if I become an evil spirit, I will not forget to protect you."

   "But there is no essential difference between being a dehumanized evil spirit and being a dehumanized evil spirit who only remembers to protect me."

   They are just puppets driven by instinct, like the lower demons of hell.

   "Well... so you're not angry anymore?" Anna gently bumped into Lu Li again.

   "If you don't do it anymore."

   Rhode's death was a pity, and Lu Li was silent. Even if Rhodes had nothing to do with Tesla, the mere fact that a young exorcist died just because he fell into the water was worthless.

   And he couldn't expose Anna and hand over Anna.

   This is destined to be difficult to choose, but fortunately it is not a multiple-choice question.

  Anna suggested to take advantage of today's free time to stroll around the city. This kind of liveliness as if there would be no crisis would not last too long. Lu Li refused. The Exorcist Council will start tomorrow, and it can be expected that the exorcists from all over the Lord's Continent in Aaron King City will reach their peak today.

   The exorcist possessed by the exorcist is like a weird one, and it has incredible functions. No one knows whether any exorcist will sense Anna's presence.

   So just in case, it’s safest to stay in the room.

  Lu Li didn't plan to actually enter the parliamentary scene. After arriving at Ellen King City, he had a vague sense of unease, as if something would happen.

   Anyway, if you stay in the royal city and wait until the end of the council, you can know the content of the council. He and Fleming and others have already agreed.

  Thinking like this, Lu Li suddenly saw a snow-white dandelion falling from the open window.

   Dandelion?

at this time?

  A white arm stretched out of the window from beside him, catching the falling dandelion.

   As if a breeze was blowing, the dandelion avoided the illusory palm and fell to the crowd below.

   "It's a pity..." Anna still wanted to bring a dandelion seed back to the top of the cliff.

   "Seeds are easy to buy." Lu Li looked away from the street.

   Seeds are everywhere, but they can no longer sprout and grow.

   Another gust of breeze blew, and entered the room with a coolness.

   Delicate goose bumps appeared between Lu Li's neck. Anna gently closed the window and helped Lu Li back to the bed to lie down.

  The piece of dandelion that they had skipped was getting lower and lower. During the period, it was blown up by the wind several times and flew diagonally for a certain distance, and finally landed on the felt hat of a passerby.

   It certainly won’t attract anyone’s attention, including middle-aged men in felt hats.
