sixty-six. go home

The carriage drove through streets one after another, and Anna and Lu Li also saw scenes of all living beings.

Most of the collapsed houses were wooden houses in disrepair, which made Anna somewhat worried about the safety of her detective agency cabin and the sculptures.

The sculpture has consciousness and can move, but her body is just plaster. This causes her to be broken into pieces if she falls down casually.

Anna prayed that the detective agency would be safe, and the carriage returned to Sailor Street.

Like most of the streets it passed, several houses collapsed on Mariner Street. Fortunately, the residents underneath had been rescued.

But this was the place with the most depressing atmosphere that Lu Li and Anna had seen.

The carriage drove through the bluestone road, and the sound of mourning came from the houses on the roadside. The residents on the street looked numb, and the children, without the laughter and laughter of the past, stood under the eaves with red eyes and a daze.

Sailor Street is one of the streets where most sailors gather.

Most of yesterday's fishing boats did not return...

Anna had already seen the long house that appeared in front of her. It was intact. Only the windows were broken by the wind. At most, it would take some time to clean.

But Anna found that she was not as happy as she had imagined.

Only Lu Li could maintain a calmness that never changed, as if he had no emotions.

The carriage stopped outside the window of the detective agency. Unexpectedly, a layer of wooden boards was put up outside the window to prevent the window from being damaged. The detective agency was in a mess.

Anna disappeared as a ghost and walked into the detective agency. Lu Li took down all the personal belongings in the carriage and got out of the carriage.

The owner of the longhouse, a middle-aged man with Mediterranean hair, walked over with a smile and told Lu Li that he had installed the window panels before the hurricane arrived, and then asked Lu Li politely if there were any ghosts around.

Lu Li did not refuse his request and held the psychic gun briefly. To his surprise... there was not a single ghost around.

Lu Li didn't know whether this was normal or unreasonable. But this answer was enough to make the longhouse owner breathe a sigh of relief, and it seemed that he could sleep peacefully tonight.

Passing through the corridor of the long house, the door of the detective agency was ajar. As Lu Li pushed it open, a gleam of light came from the oil lamp on the table.

Anna flicked out the match and threw it into the wastebasket, floated to the door, took the things from Lu Li's hand, and put them back where they should be.

The sculpture still stayed in its original position, except that there was an extra woolen coat from Lu Li - it was very cold today.

The detective agency is no different from the one they left two days ago. Everything here is familiar, but it really makes people feel at ease and at ease.

The only regret is that there was no bouquet of shillings or anything stuffed under the door.

Lu Li brought another oil lamp and told Anna the itinerary of returning the carriage and meeting Hades. As he said before, he would not hide anything from Anna.

Except for his origins.

This time Anna chose to follow Lu Li, even though he was about to meet an exorcist. As she had decided before, she wanted to protect Lu Li.

The umbrella is held above the head, and the rainwater gathers along the edge of the umbrella to form a water curtain.

Holding the oil lamp that was not turned on, Lu Li walked towards the carriage.

There were many residents standing under the eaves on both sides of the road, including children, women, and elderly people, as if they were waiting for something.

The attitude of these residents towards Lu Li became more respectful, and... there was a strange expectation in everyone's eyes.

Suddenly, a little boy broke away from his mother's arms, rushed into the rain curtain with a sudden exclamation, and ran to Lu Li.

"Mr. Exorcist, can you help me?"

The little boy, who stood under the rain, his thin body quickly getting wet, raised his head and asked.

Lu Li silently moved the umbrella forward to cover the little boy's head. As soon as his back exposed outside the umbrella got wet, the distressed Anna used her telekinesis to block the rain.

"Can you see my dad?" Those big eyes were full of sadness and pleading.

Lu Li did not answer the question immediately. He raised his dark eyes and focused on his mother with her arms folded under the eaves.

Her expression was equally sad, with a fragile and cautious expectation.

Lu Li suddenly realized how the residents looked at him earlier.

Their families have never come back and are unlikely to come back.

Withdrawing his gaze, Lu Li looked down at the little boy and nodded: "I see, he is beside you."

The little boy stared blankly at Lu Li, then suddenly turned around and rushed into the rain, into his mother's arms, and couldn't wait to shout: "Mom, did you hear it! Mr. Exorcist said that daddy is with us! Mr. Exorcist--

"

The little boy turned his head, but only saw the carriage curtain falling.

"thank you."

The horses passed by the woman with crisp hooves. The woman couldn't stop the tears on her face, covered her cheeks and cried bitterly.

"thanks, thanks……"



In the carriage, Anna looked at Lu Li's profile.

She knew that Lu Li didn't see anything.

He never touched the psychic gun at his waist from beginning to end.

Anna kept taking peeks, and ten minutes later, the carriage arrived in front of Hades' detective agency.

His detective agency also appears to have been untouched by the hurricane.

Ding bell~ding bell~

The wind chime swayed gently behind the door.

"Look who's back, this sludge smell... you actually went in there?" Hades' old friend behind the bar said in a casual greeting, and then asked: "You brought me the information to look for.

Have you been paid?"

He always has an extraordinary memory when it comes to money.

"How can we destroy the Demon Organization?" Lu Li ignored his request.

Hades' eyes became suspicious and he looked at Lu Li and then at Anna behind Lu Li: "Why do you want to know this?"

"personal reason."

Hades shook his head and said: "I don't know, I have nothing to do with them."

"Really not?"

Hades was about to answer when something suddenly occurred to him. After thinking for a few seconds, he said: "Not entirely... your reputation is almost enough now. It won't be long before a businessman will go to your detective agency to sell goods. He may know something.

"

"merchant?"

"He's a guy with a mysterious background, selling all kinds of weird homologous products. You don't think that the psychic gun and silver-plated bullets are all made by me, right? Of course it's from a businessman... Damn it! How could I do such a thing?

Told you!"

Hades held his head in pain.

This pain is not false.



dizziness!

The dizziness that makes the soul almost collapse!

Ice cold!

Biting cold enough to freeze the soul!

pain!

Pain everywhere in my body!

The sound of waves echoed in his ears, and Haben opened his eyes weakly.

I...I'm back...?

I'm alive……?

Haben pushed himself up with difficulty, feeling the beach beneath him and the sea water lapping behind him.

His head still had a splitting headache, and a sharp pain like an explosion would occur if he thought about it for a moment. He recovered for a long time and could barely think slowly.

Gradually, the confusion in Haben's eyes dissipated and was replaced by ecstasy. He got up, stumbled and ran on the beach, running towards the distant streets and towards his home on Sailor Street.
