Jiminy Reid planned to turn off the radio or tune to another frequency, but at this moment, a weak curse suddenly came from the noisy radio.
[Damn...can anyone hear me...I...need help...]
Jiminy Reid paused and turned to look at Lu Li.
Intermittent noisy sounds are still coming from the sound source, sometimes far and sometimes near: [...everywhere...they...rustling...be careful...go to No. 44 Lime Street...basement, before I cough...whatever
Who is it!]
It seems that people who use radios realize the importance of addresses. That address is particularly clear and loud, as if they are shouting close to the microphone.
As it ended, the shouts disappeared into the rustling noise.
"It could be a trap." After waiting for ten seconds to make sure that the other party would not repeat it, Jiminy Redton reminded Lu Li: "Not only can we use it and know the frequency, but the address is too clear."
Clear as a conspicuous trap placed on a flat road.
Lu Li didn't answer and raised his eyes to look at Anna.
He was more inclined to go because the voice on the radio felt familiar to him and it was difficult to recall its origin. However, it was certain that at some point, this voice had said something to Lu Li, and it was still fresh in his memory.
"When trouble comes, I will solve it." Anna responded to Lu Li's gaze and walked to the back door of the clothing store to lead the carriage in the backyard.
"Whether it's a trap or not, the people on the radio should know something." Lu Li nodded lightly and said to Jiminy Reid, "You know where the Lyme neighborhood is."
"Of course..." Jiminy Reid told Lu Li the location of Lime Street. He also knew that this was the best opportunity to get to the truth. If they missed it, it would be difficult for them to know the meaning of the intermittent warnings.
"I will protect these people and swear on my own life." Jiminy Red could only make the greatest guarantee he could.
"Just try your best."
Anna, who was holding the carriage, had already arrived outside the display window. Lu Li looked away, and got into the carriage with Jiminy Reid's gaze, and drove off into the distance amidst the clear sound of horse hooves.
"Would it be better if we all hid in the cellar?" York behind the counter asked. "The cellar of the house next door is big enough to hide all of us."
Jiminy Red hung up the door latch and returned to the lounge chair in front of the fireplace: "It was possible before, but now it's like telling the weirdos that we are human beings."
There are fewer and fewer humans showing up on their own initiative, and the rules of the park have changed from looking for moles to hide and seek. Places where people can hide, such as houses, basements, and cellars, will inevitably be searched by weirdos, so pretending to be them is the safest move.
Bang bang bang——
A rapid knock on the door suddenly entered the clothing store.
The rustling dust on the wooden door indicated that it was not Lu Li and the others who had returned.
Jiminy Red and the uneasy York looked at each other, and he stood up and walked to the door: "You are the boss now, and I am the buddy."
York's inability to hide his emotions could lead to disaster, and he knows how to be more weird.
Jiminy Reid unbolted the door latch and opened the wooden door. His eyelids were lowered halfway, his face was straight and stiff as he looked at the figure outside the door, and his tone was cold: "...Guest?"
"I want to buy something." The guest outside the door grinned ferociously, and an unconcealed cold aura spread from his body toward Jiminy Reid.
…
The Lime neighborhood was some distance away from them - it was closer to the central area of the royal city. Lu Li had been avoiding that area because, as the center, the dangers there were visible to the naked eye.
It is indeed true. The silhouettes wandering on the streets here are denser, and the reflections in the upside-down city are more terrifying and indescribable.
The weirdos wandering around the periphery are more like poor people who are not qualified to step into the center and are driven and squeezed to the edge.
Anna had to take the initiative to exude a weak aura to show her identity to avoid being intruded by strange things. The price was that the nearly stagnant sanity counter slowly sounded again.
"They are spreading outside..." Anna told Lu Li what she had discovered in a low voice.
There were more "people" going the way they came than there were "people" going along the way with them.
The carriage entered the Lyme neighborhood, and when the number plate on the roadside was about to count to number 40, Lu Li noticed a human figure on the street heading in the same direction as them.
Anna pulled the reins and approached him. Lu Li on the carriage asked, "Are you because of the broadcast too?"
The middle-aged man wearing a coat over a black suit looked at him strangely: "I don't know what you are talking about."
A cold aura suddenly came out of him.
Lu Li noticed that he had glanced at Anna covertly.
Signing Anna to calm down, Lu Li said directly to him: "I am a senior investigator, Lu Li."
Lu Li was not good at impressing others with words. At least the exorcist who was also attracted by the broadcast did not believe him, so he made an impatient look and warned Lu Li that this "weird" not to disturb him, put down the brim of his hat and left.
"Admit it?" Anna asked in a low voice after he left.
Lu Li shook his head slightly and watched as this man of his kind paused briefly as he passed No. 44 Lime Street, then opened the door and walked in.
"We'll go there too."
The carriage stopped on the side of the road, and Lu Li and Anna walked towards No. 44. Anna held his arm and looked around, paying attention to the windows of the houses.
Are there other surviving exorcists attracted by the broadcast who are watching from the shadows?
And weird.
【Amples Noble Bank】
This three-story, angular masonry building was a bank not long ago. Now through the broken door, only the emptiness and chaos inside the dark interior can be glimpsed.
Tap tap tap tap——
Chaotic footsteps suddenly sounded in the dark and empty hall, and a vague figure stumbled towards Lu Li and Anna running toward the door——
"Save--" The frightened syllable was stopped by something as soon as he uttered it. A tentacle-like shadow in the depths of the darkness grabbed him, wrapping up his body and shouts layer by layer, dragging the struggling outline back into the darkness.
Disappeared.
"It's a trap." Anna stared at the door and whispered in the dark.
Lu Li removed his hand from the holster of his gun. Everything happened so fast that it was too late to save people. He recognized the figure that was dragged away - the exorcist who had just entered the building.
"uncertain."
Maybe they arrived late and Weird got here first, maybe...
"Bait can be used to catch more fish." Lu Li said.
"Are you saying that the monster in the bank deliberately sent the exorcist to save the man who was calling for help?"
Lu Li raised his head and looked to see if there was any other place in the bank where he could enter.
"Leave it to me." Anna said at this time.
Lu Li had no objection: "Pay attention to safety."
Pursing her lips and gently nodding, Anna left Lu Li's side and stepped onto the steps. With every step she took, Anna's aura became colder and obscure, surging with the undisguised aura of the other world. The distorted projection reflected on her
His feet stretched out, blending into the darkness of the hall together with his body.
