Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 749 Forty. Cheap

  Human-faced hyena squatted down, and the freckled boy complained, "There must be another idiot who came down for the first time and made the textile machine angry."

"textile machine?"

  Lu Li looked at the cave, the tremors that made his scalp numb never stopped, and the rolling dust poured into the old sewer.

   "It's what's inside. We also call it the stationmaster of Ghost Town Station."

  Lu Li lowered his head and observed his left hand, wondering if the loom's anger was related to him.

  Human-faced hyena continued to take the initiative to say: "I can smell your body, this gentleman smells very good... Are you humans on the ground?"

   "Yeah." Lu Li nodded.

   Katarina did not respond. She was a little nervous, not knowing that "good smell" refers to human nature, and thought that Lu Li's pure human identity was detected.

   "Nice...I haven't been to the ground yet."

   got an affirmative answer, the boy's face on the hyena's body showed humanized excitement and some kind of anticipation, expecting Lu Li to continue this topic.

   "Why." Lu Li, who knew very little about the old sewers, really didn't mind talking.

   "Because the ground towns won't allow me to enter... Don't look at me like this, I'm also a human, my name is Pusius Kim, you can call me Jin or Pusius."

   The human-faced hyena spoke very quickly.

   "Human?" Katerina asked suspiciously.

   "Yes!" Katarina's questioning made Pusius raise his voice, obviously caring about his human identity: "I still clearly remember where I was born! Killer Whale Town twenty miles east of the Twisted Forest."

  The human-faced hyena was too detailed, as if he was worried that Lu Li and Katarina would not believe it.

   "I know there," Katerina said.

   "So is this your first time to the old sewer?"

   "What do you want to say?" Katerina put on alert.

   "Don't, don't be nervous." The freckled boy's face showed panic: "I thought you might need a trustworthy guide."

   "Guide?" Lu Li asked.

Prius' face turned to Lu Li: "Although we are on the surface, the old sewer area that is most friendly to outsiders. But there are still many dangers... If people who come down for the first time don't hire a guide, most of them will never have a chance again. back to the ground."

  Lu Li thought of the tall woman he met when he came down, and looked up into the depths of the old sewers.

   Is she a guide again?

   "The one who stops you is also a guide. We call it a model..." Prius said, "It is very powerful and can protect guests, but it is not trustworthy, and guests are often eaten by it..."

   "You're trustworthy, but you can't protect our guide," Katerina concluded.

  Prius was embarrassed.

   Although their credibility is questioned by the identity of Psyche, they do need a guide.

   "How do we know you're a qualified guide?" Katarina asked.

  Puseus sat up straight, his tail raised like a dog: "Our Boy Scouts around the city can find out everything you want to know!"

  The ring city refers to the old sewers around Midnight City, and the Boy Scouts are the rudimentary organization of Prius—two aliens who are as weak as Prius and cannot leave the old sewers.

   "One of my two companions is a squirrel and the other is a mouse. Like me, they became like this because of the curse." Purseus introduced Lu Li.

"Is that it."

  Luri looked at the outline passing outside the wooden shed.

  The rampage in the underground cave gradually ended, and before the dust settled, the beings waiting in the old sewers poured in, as if they had experienced many times, and skillfully used deterrence and fighting in silence to divide the vacated area.

   It was a weird looking man with the appearance of a strong man. With every breath, the man's ribcage inflates like an inflated balloon, propping up, pulling the skin translucent.

   A group of parasitic worms wriggling in the chest cavity appeared.

The    worms seem to control the burly man. The corners of his mouth were torn, his mouth was stuffed, and he was mumbling a snack. A fist-sized head drooped beside his mouth, shaking as he chewed.

  The ribcage bulged again, revealing more details - minced meat or blood falling down the throat into the hollowed chest cavity, into the worm swarm.

   "Dadai! Oh no..."

  Purse, who was looking at Lu Li's eyes, tucked his tail, put his ears to his head, and let out a painful groan.

   That is its companion.

   But Pusius didn't dare to go forward at all, that would only make him suffer the same bad luck as Dai Dai.

   "Two guests, do you want to hire me?" With a pleading, Purse looked up at Lu Li.

   "We're going to Midnight City."

   Lu Li said.

   "Thank you so much, kyi..." The excited Pusius even mixed in another language. "I mean you...you want to go to Midnight City, right? I know the way to get there in relative safety."

   "How much commission will you charge?" Katerina asked suddenly.

   "10 shillings...not 8 shillings is fine." Purse carefully observed Katerina's expression.

   "Okay, then 8 shillings, and if we're not satisfied, we'll deduct—"

   Katerina's voice stopped abruptly because Lu Lizheng handed 10 shillings to Purseus.

  Puseus was eager to look at this old banknote, and refused its temptation with difficulty: "No... Mr. Lu Li, according to the regulations, I should send kyi... You can only receive the commission when you send it to the destination."

  Lu Li is ready to put away the money. But all of a sudden Katarina wanted to leave.

   "You can't hold the money, it's too dazzling." Katerina said.

  Puseus, detached from the sadness of losing his companions, said to them, "Let's go quickly, before the models find out."

   At the entrance, follow the "loom" to calm down the anger and gradually restore order. Figures who came to the old sewers or left the old sewers walked around the cave.

   A silhouette familiar to Lu Li and Katarina emerged.

   The guy at the Cape of Good Hope tavern came with a bucket of swill, and the man who stole Katarina fell.

  The man fell into a coma and was thrown on the swill bucket.

   The newly moved middle-aged man greeted the man, and the yellow-green patterned mantis came out of its back, threatening the other silhouettes that gathered. In the end it won the right to the deal and came to the dude.

   "Where's old Olein?"

   The guy talked to the weird as usual.

   "I'm dead, just now." The mango ghost answered, with a big tongue.

   But no one associates it with weirdness if you only look at the front.

   "Because the loom is angry? It's unfortunate, I heard that it just gave birth to a litter of cubs." The man shrugged and patted the wooden barrel beside him. "A bucket of swill. Old fashioned, fifty shillings."

"certainly."

  Tangguiyiren said to accept the price.

   Finished the task, and the man pouted again at the unconscious man who was trapped by the twine. He was more concerned about the deal: "And this, a hapless man who angered the boss, how much are you willing to pay for him?"
