Bizarre Detective Agency

  Chapter 617 One hundred and ninety-four. I will personally set you free

  Doreen recalled carefully and shook her head gently: "I can't remember, it seems like it's just an ordinary dream..."

  Nightmare is not pressing step by step - at least in Doreen's first two nightmares, the appearance of the dark shadow was separated by several ordinary dreams.

  Dom felt fortunate, but also a little disappointed. He left the bell to tell his sister a few words and left with anxiety.

   At this time, someone should say "your brother is so kind to you" to appease Doreen, but neither Lu Li nor Anna are the ones who can do this. Lu Li only stopped Doreen when she wanted to leave the bed: "You may fall asleep at any time."

   The room was not always silent, save for the crackling of the firewood burning and the occasional shout from the square outside the window, and sometimes the maid outside the door was passing the hallway talking about something.

   "Those stupid nobles actually want the carriage to go in...how is this possible!"

   "I saw blood when I was clearing Valentine's trash..."

   "Why let the nobles go first? The scavengers are complaining that they are arrogant and greedy, and even speak ill of Lord Valentine!"

"They're all over again, and I heard that a house in the safe zone was infected because one was hidden in a woman's hair..." "Sir Valentine will we cut our hair? ?" "Who knows...but if Lord Valentine decrees it, I'll cut it off."

   Apart from the few words from the maids, Dom would bring Valentine's arrangements and outside news to Lu Li from time to time, and visit Doreen by the way.

The construction of the "Asylum Corridor" at the other end of the dark passage has begun. This narrow passage, which is expected to be thirteen miles in length, is a spectacle and is divided into several parts, extending towards each other and the dandelion group at a speed of 60 meters every ten minutes. If the night is relatively safe, they will be able to continue building at the same speed, and then reach beyond the dandelion swarm the next morning.

   But this is the most ideal situation - there is no reason for the weirdness to spare the workers in the wilderness, and the dandelion group may also float eastward.

   At four o'clock in the afternoon, Doreen fell asleep again due to narcolepsy, but it was still just an ordinary dream, and was awakened by Anna with a bell.

   As evening approached, the area that Anna had emptied at noon was shrouded in dandelion clusters again. Lu Li accepted the request of City Lord Valentine to clean up the dandelion clusters again.

  Scarlet dandelions have no cluster consciousness and no weird smell, just like ordinary dandelions - the only difference is that their breeding ground is flesh and blood, not soil.

  The blaze that lit the dark sky was more spectacular than it was a few hours ago, and Valentine's intention to build confidence in the citizens and let them go to the window to watch the broadcast let more people see this magnificent scene.

  Perhaps it is difficult to change the status quo, but it is enough to make the people feel at ease through this difficult night.

   In addition to this fire show, which is more meaningful than its effect, Valentine entrusted Lu Li and Anna to follow a team of exorcists, scavengers, and workers to clean up the suburban power plant.

  The lit street lamp can't dispel the dandelion, but it can dispel people's inner unease and avoid some weirdness.

  Anna's hurricane of fire first cleared most of the dandelion colonies occupying the power plant, the exorcists and scavengers scattered to clear them in the corners, and then the workers went to work.

  The night fell slenderly, there was a roar in the power plant, and the street lamps in the distant streets lit up with faint spots of light, gradually becoming stronger, and then radiating toward the deep red haze in the distance.

  Lu Li and Ana have completed their tasks, Valentine has not. When Lu Li came back, he was still busy in the city hall, the only difference from the day was that the lights were on in the city hall.

  Lund's only dozen exorcists left three in the power plant, three in the safe area, and all the rest were sent to the other end of the dark passage to protect the workers.

  The scavengers are also working around the clock to clear out more safe areas around the city hall, and place citizens on the edge of the city in it. The large amount of coal stored in the power plant is not suitable for dispersing dandelions, but it can be used to heat and protect residential buildings.

After    came back, the city lord Valentine asked the maid to bring them dinner, and because of Doreen, she sent three servings. Lu Li still ate Anna's share, Doreen was a little strange, but didn't say anything.

   At seven o'clock in the evening, Doreen fell asleep again, and no one woke her this time, because it was still just an ordinary dream, as if the nightmare brought by the dark shadow in the dream gradually drifted away with the arrival of Lu Li and Anna.

  Time passed quietly, and it was approaching nine o'clock. Dom knocked on the door again, visited Doreen who was asleep, and told Lu Li that the security corridor on the other side of the secret passage was going well.

   The **** dandelion may have blocked out some weird prying eyes, and the workers were not attacked by weirdness, although construction had to be slowed down due to darkness.

In addition to this, there is another piece of good news: the outside observation post reports news. Due to the change in wind, the edge of the dandelion group going south is becoming narrower, which means that the original 13 miles away from the dandelion-covered area may become 12 miles or even 11 miles. Will speed up their completion by hours.

After    finished speaking, the excited Dom left the room, and the room returned to silence.

  Anna retracted her gaze from looking at the busy figures in the square outside the window, picked up a piece of processed wood and put it into the fireplace with her invisible hand, and returned to Lu Li to crouch down beside Lu Li.

   "Let's go after reading it." Lu Li turned the book slightly so that Anna could see the text on it by the fireplace light.

   The story of the mother of the swamp was written on it: aside from the artistic processing itself, Princess Roland is indeed worthy of the public's love. Helping the elderly and the poor, fighting against bad people, being approachable, not hating someone because of their class, although sometimes they hate someone for no reason because of their character-although the Princess Roland in the story is still full of limitations and exaggerated parts of the times, there are One thing is certain, Princess Roland at that time was not a person with a dark heart.

  It is hard to imagine that now she is surrounded by rotting and fetid silt and dead woods, forgetting all the memories of the past, including emotions and humanity.

   Will I be like this one day?

  Anna couldn't help but think.

   She has no body, but she feels a dull pain in the position of her heart. Anna knows her future clearly, becoming an evil spirit who has lost her humanity and feelings, and is more thorough than the Swamp Mother, and that is very close...

"Land from……"

  Ana softly called Lu Li, not noticing that her voice was trembling.

  Lu Li's eyes left the page.

   "If one day I become an evil spirit, like the mother of the swamp..."

  Lu Li was silent for a moment, then replied to Anna: "I will personally set you free."

   He gently turned over the scratched pages, as if he was just answering at random.

   Anyway…

  Anna looked at Lu Li's half face that was not illuminated by the fire.

   She will never hurt Lu Li.

   Absolutely.
