Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 1238 One hundred seventy-six. Funeral

   "He is a man to be respected."

   "is a man of high moral character."

   "A firm and kind man."

   "Pure and sane man."

   Broken clouds briefly blocked the mild morning sun.

  The solemn crowd stood in the shadows, and the vicissitudes of the eulogy floated over the cemetery.

Swamp Mother, Twisted Shadow, Elena, Ophelia, Physius, Hades, Chris, Claire, Undead, Margaret, Valendor, Exorcists, Knights and Hugs Dracula stood in the breeze, quietly listening to Tesla put a stop to everything:

   "He's always on the front lines of fighting weirdness."

   "His fame is revered by men and feared by the monstrous."

   "He shielded us from bad luck."

   "He passed on hope to us."

   "Even though he has left us, he is always by our side."

  People standing in a semi-circle stood on the lawn in front of the tombstone, and an oak coffin lay quietly in the tomb pit. The exorcists got Tesla's instructions, waved their shovels, pushed the earth into the grave pit, and gradually buried the oak coffin.

   After a few minutes, a low hill appeared in front of the standing crowd.

   They stepped forward one by one and dropped the flowers they had picked from the garden of the Swamp Mother.

  The mother of the swamp, with a dwarf worm body, placed the flowers on the mound, and stared at the tombstone with sad eyes: "This world can't be without you."

   The Twisted Shadow quietly put down the flowers.

   Elena bent over and placed the flowers on the mound, and said softly, "Thank you."

   Ophelia sadly put down the dry flower: "I didn't wait for the day you let me wear a wedding dress."

  Puseus put the flower in his mouth in front of the mound and whimpered sadly.

   Haders put down the flowers and made the biggest concession he could make in a complicated and distressed way: "I only need to pay half of my salary in the future..."

  Chris lifted her cloak, revealing a face as beautiful as the mother of the swamp, and laid down flowers under the brilliance of the sun shining through the broken clouds.

  Claire did not dare to step forward, and the undead placed the flowers with broken rhizomes on the mound for her.

  Margaret quietly put down the flowers she dyed white.

  Valendo put down himself and the two flowers offered to Mayor Mateus.

  Dracula, who was picked up by the knight, twisted a red rose in the oil painting, respectful and elegant: "To the only man I respect."

Thousands of    knights and exorcists came one after another, and the barren mounds were gradually filled with flowers.

   They held another moment of silence at the tomb, then turned and left.

  Claire followed her mother away. She stopped and looked back before she went far.

  [R.I.P]

[Land from]

  [The eternal exorcist is buried here]

  People left the cemetery and saw that there were still many residents who were not willing to leave.

   "I want to take another look at Mr. Exorcist..." Evelyn, who was not eligible to join the funeral, prayed.

   "It's just a tomb." The Swamp Mother told her.

"I know……"

  The Swamp Mother nodded, allowing Evelyn and the residents surrounding the cemetery to mourn Lu Li.

   The entire land of light, or the entire human world is mourning this news.

   People in black dresses or black dresses are invited by the Swamp Mother to go to her courtyard.

  …

   "I saw with my own eyes his body and soul annihilated in the aftermath of terror."

  The tea party of the Mother of the Swamp, the people who have not taken off their solemn dresses gather in front of an increasingly large round table.

  Claire recounted everything that happened that day - Lu Li sacrificed himself to activate the alchemy tower, and Claire returned with the souls and his men.

   "The Lord of Dreams said that Lu Li will come back." Ophelia believes in the Eternal Dreamer, or the good news represented by the Eternal Dreamer: "He also said before that Lu Li would not have a bad ending..."

   "Lu Li died once, but 20 years later, he came to the Shadow Swamp again and appeared in front of me again, never getting old... Maybe it will still be the case this time," said the Swamp Mother.

   "Too long," Elena said.

   Although it is not difficult for them at the tea party to live to that day, only Ophelia needs to restrain her connection with the inner world.

   But the world will not be static, no one knows when disaster will come.

   Before Lu Li returned, they could only cover up the news that he was still alive.

   "My flowerbed..."

  The Swamp Mother swept anxiously across the flowerbeds that were no longer blooming, only green and buds remained.

   "Can we still control Midnight City?" Twisted Shadow asked Chris.

   "Yes, but it doesn't make sense. Midnight City is just an empty shell now, and we have no flesh and blood to fill the interior." Chris put back her robe and hood: "And I don't think you will abandon this place and migrate."

   "It's us." The Swamp Mother corrected her, "Can you bring things from Midnight City, such as the Alchemy Tower?"

   "If we want to claim Midnight City's relics, we need to clear it first, but if we can clear Midnight City, we no longer need the relics."

   And the alchemy tower can also check the spread of the swamp. And despite the disappearance of Night City, the old sewers took over part of the role of Night City - limiting the swamp.

  If the land dweller trades in the land of light, the news of the land guardian being solved by the land dwellers will soon appear in the old sewers.

   The lawful monsters of the old sewers will not tolerate traitors among them.

   "Do you know how to build an alchemy tower?"

   "I can try." Chris replied.

  The Swamp Mother found that Claire's depression was different from the story, so she asked her what was wrong.

   "She hasn't recovered her memory yet, and she's blaming herself for Lu Li's death," Chris said.

  The Swamp Mother found some topics and returned to the essence of the tea party.

   "Why are all women?"

During   , Chris noticed that the tea party was all women.

   "I can call Tesla over here."

  Chris didn't mean that, but the Swamp Mother had already called Tesla.

  Tesla is also one of the insiders, and favors hiding the message: "People have been led by Lu Li for so long, it's time for them to go alone."

   And he hopes to still call Lu Li the only exorcist - the only exorcist sounds much better than two exorcists.

   Hades does not count.

After Lu Li gave the "exorcist" a new meaning, Tesla didn't think that guy was an exorcist, no matter he was or is now, including the exorcists who have graduated from apprenticeships, they don't think they are worthy now. Get the status of "The Exorcist".

  Because of Tesla's participation, the tea party then became the next arrangement of the Land of Light.

  Chris promised: "I will restore the mysticism in the land of light to the level of the late night city as soon as possible."

   "We not only need to restore, but also to integrate with science." The Swamp Mother said.

   "I've seen Lu Li's plan to stay in the hut and know what to do."

At the end of the tea party, the Swamp Mother said to everyone, "I hope we can avoid conflicts."

   "I don't want to see the land of light fall into strife and disappoint the returning Lu Li."
