Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 798 Eighty-nine

   Mayor Mateus Knox looked at the silhouette hanging from the ceiling in horror.

   It is only a short distance from the bed.

   "Don't get too close, Your Excellency Lu Li." The mayor's assistant carefully blocked Lu Li from entering the room.

"It's alright, it's a filthy spirit, a weird one in a dream." The old woman rubbed her dirty yellow and necrotic teeth, took a deep breath in offending, and wiggled her snake-like slender tongue: "It was stolen by our exorcist. Great scent."

   "Smell?" Purse sniffed hard, remembering that she might be talking about human nature.

  The old woman started the exorcism ceremony. She didn't mind watching from outside the door. She sprinkled powder like bone powder around the bulge, raised her spine crutch, and gently and solemnly tapped the floor.

  嘭——

Strange ripples that can be seen by everyone spread across the spine where the crutches hit, touching the sprinkled powder, and suddenly igniting a vicious yellow flame that looks disgusting and dizzy, like flowers swaying and scattered, floating, sticking to the raised outline , like falling on kerosene and spreading.

  The sudden increase in nausea made people shudder in their skulls, and they couldn't help but step back from the exorcism ceremony.

  Caterina closed her eyes to block her vision, Pusius was safe and sound, the merchant was not here, it was always elusive, disappearing and reappearing suddenly.

  Lu Li was only slightly uncomfortable.

   For a moment, everyone present heard a shrill scream dissipating into nothingness.

  The vicious flames that lost their fuel were extinguished, and the ashes turned into fluorescent light.

   A scene of astonishment suddenly happened. The old woman let go of her crutch and crawls down like a wild beast, sticking out her slender tongue to greedily lick the ashes falling on the bed and the floor.

   The wrinkled skin with the mysterious lines spread out slowly and relaxedly. The old woman climbed up from the floor, picked up the spinal crutches lying on the side, and leaned back to the door.

   "It's dead."

   "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Roseanne." The mayor's assistant thanked respectfully.

  The old woman who was called Miss Roseanne said nothing, just looked at Lu Li with coveted eyes, and walked away with the soft sound of the spinal cane hitting the floor.

   "Miss?" Katerina asked the mayor's assistant.

   "Rosanna is only twenty-six years old, and she became like this because of weird powers." Mayor Mateus Knox volunteered to explain: "That's why we hate weirdness... Contact with them always pays a price."

  Lu Li remained silent, thinking that if she touched the old woman with her left hand, she wouldn't be hurt.

   "So the Wiener Unfrozen Harbor is the same as Midnight City?" Pusius was disappointed, he thought that the Wiener Unfrozen Harbor would be different and the purest human habitat.

   Although he is already one of the weird ones.

"The difference is very big. For example, we don't take the initiative to use weird powers." Mattius Knox was inconvenient to say, and could only be conveyed by the mayor's assistant: "And our cutting-edge personal combat power is not them, it is The Steam Knight of the Inquisition."

   Assistant's words made Matthaus Knox sigh and look around silently.

   There is still trouble waiting for him.

  Although the weirdness has been resolved, it is impossible to hide what happened. Before dawn, it will get into all members of parliament and nobles, and then it will be published as news by the newspapers under the banner of those political enemies, and spread all over the Wiener Antifreeze.

  The only good thing is that the city hall solved the problem by itself, and it was not so severe that it sent a steam knight.

   Tribunal, Wiener Antifreeze to deal with weirdness In addition to another pillar of battleships, it is even more important than battleships - ships cannot set foot on land and can only sail on the sea.

  The Steam Knights are the combat troops attached to the Inquisition. They are only dispatched by the mayor, only to fight against the weird, and they are fully armed. They are like the night watchmen of the old days, but they are more extreme and more extreme than the night watchmen.

   When Lu Li arrived, the Tribunal was one of the actively invited members, but after learning that Lu Li was following a strange person, the leader of the Steam Knights went to the Tribunal and directly rescinded the invitation.

   This is not a bad thing in a way, combat troops need extremes to maintain their purity.

   The deformed ceiling was still hanging on the bed, like a corpse.

   Just in case, they changed the room for Lu Li, a guest room away from the accident room.

   The view here is better, not only can you see the distant port and half of the Wiener ice-free port, but you can also see the industrial area from the side window, but people on the street can also see it here.

   Mayor Mateus Knox quickly pleaded guilty and left, the sky was bright, and he had to deal with the troubles left behind.

   After everyone left, only Katarina and Pusius were left in the room, and a whimper came out of the hood.

   Big sister rubbed her face with her hands and pretended to cry, and complained that Lu Li got up and got rid of it.

   Rather than needing an apology, it’s more like a coquettish act to someone you know.

   The assistant mayor appeared outside the door shortly after, saying that something happened around the city hall last night, so he didn't need to be nervous.

  The weird fog slowly retreated into the deep sea, and Lu Li walked to the bed. Early morning mist shrouded the streets, and the damp, cold air condensed dew.

   He saw the busy crowd on the street, and surrounded by them, like a deep ravine plowed out by anchors and opened by stone, brick and soil.

   That's what the assistant mayor said. The existence in the weird fog was destroyed, and the traces extended intermittently from the port to the industrial area.

  Workers scrambled to repair it, preparing to restore it to its original appearance before the citizens showed up on the streets.

Before    left the window, Lu Li saw a group of figures dressed in strange costumes, dressed in robes similar to believers but with cumbersome dark gold inscriptions, approaching the ravine.

   They are what the mayor called the Tribunal.

   The spreading traces of destruction aroused the vigilance of the inquisition, and they came to investigate the source of the traces.

   The members of the courthouse on the street watched Lu Li upstairs without knowing it.

   "Was anyone attacked in Midnight City last night?" Lu Li tilted his head and asked.

   "Uh...a little less than usual." The Assistant Mayor chose his words carefully.

   "This is common?"

   "...The weirdness doesn't like it here, but there are still troubles from time to time. You know, a lot of weirdness is invisible, like a foul spirit."

  The evil spirits moving in the dream are indeed difficult to guard against, and it is difficult for the attacked person to be awakened by the outside world.

   And these are always unavoidable, unless the Wiener Frozen Harbor learns the Badlands, but then the Wiener Frozen Harbor will no longer bear the name of "Old Glory".

   This is also part of what Mayor Mateus Knox said dirty?

   "Is there any news about the girl's shadow and the merchant?" Lu Li asked.

"not yet."

   There is still only one clue, the Cat of the Hillewig Mountains.

  Luri also asked about the maintenance status of the big ship.

  It is very cooperative, and the damage is more serious than the surface. The engine compartment is all flooded, and most of the lower compartments are also filled with seawater due to the cracked porthole. If it is not weird but ordinary ships would have been buried at the bottom of the sea.

   The assistant mayor said the repairs could take a week, not counting renovations and rust removal. He also revealed that they are investigating which ship the big ship is.

   "It's been too long." Lu Li said.

   "What do you mean?" The mayor's assistant was puzzled.

   "I'll be leaving tomorrow."
