Detective Agency of the Bizarre -
Chapter 671 - 671 One hundred ninety
671: One hundred ninety.
The second conversation 671: One hundred ninety.
The second conversation A Cleaner absentmindedly extended his palm, and as a snowflake landed on the black glove, he subconsciously twisted it lightly, merging the snowflake with the glove.
They gazed at Lu Li and Anna in front of the charred ruins that no longer burned, their eyes filled with awe.
“This one…” the City Lord’s Assistant looked towards Anna with unusual excitement.
“Anna.” Anna spoke indifferently.
The City Lord’s Assistant paid no mind to Anna’s indifference, perhaps not even noticing, “Miss Anna, do you still have the strength to perform such…
magic?”
“I can.”
Guiding the wind would save a lot of energy, especially with a continuous supply of the Inner World’s essence replenishing her soul.
The excitement of the City Lord’s Assistant trembled, perhaps a few more times, and the entire city could be completely cleansed—
“Doing this will only clear away the visible Dandelions.
Leaving here is the only option.” The calm voice of Lu Li was like ice water poured on the City Lord’s Assistant’s head, instantly calming him down.
The Cleaners murmured among themselves due to Lu Li’s words but soon calmed down.
Compared to residents in the safety zones or hiding in residential buildings waiting for rescue, they could clearly see how troublesome and difficult these Dandelions were.
They were like weeds in a field, always regrowing after a while no matter how many times they were eradicated.
Lu Li raised his head; the sky cleared by the fire looked like the eye of a hurricane, the outer blood-red veils still remaining: “Before the Dandelions cover again, take the nearby residents to the safety zone.”
Temporarily, this street was as clean as the safety zone—at least the Dandelions that permeated the street were swept away.
The Cleaners spread out to knock on the doors of the surrounding homes, while Lu Li, Anna, and the City Lord’s Assistant returned to the safety zone.
Although Anna could still stir up a few more hurricanes, it would be difficult to replicate the initial might, and even less effective—unless the drifting swarms of Dandelions filled up this gap.
The square in front of City Hall, fenced by flames, lay ahead when suddenly the surroundings became dim and narrow, and the still oblivious City Lord’s Assistant bumped into the glass on the wall, clutching his nose and crying out in pain, whereas the glass remained unscathed.
Anna suddenly turned around, her sharp, icy gaze from beneath her black cloak stared at the figures behind the dining table, pieced together like a man and a woman.
“We meet again…
my friends…” Sara, with a half-smile, looked at Anna and Lu Li, who had turned around, “Why are you…
here?
In our…
hometown…”
The City Lord’s Assistant, holding his nose, stared in terror.
He had already realized what the figure behind the table was…
“The Lord of Lund asked for our help, and I agreed,” Lu Li replied calmly, as if he did not remember Adam’s note.
“What about you?”
Sara’s beautiful cheeks softened as she raised her slender hand to gently caress Adam’s face: “Adam might have wanted to come home…
We…
came back to check…”
Adam’s eyes moved, seemingly trying to look at Sara on the other side, but he could only see his own nose: “You don’t remember…
my hometown is in another town…”
Sara’s hand stiffened, and tears began to well up in her eyes and slide down: “I’m sorry…
I actually forgot your…”
“It’s nothing…
after all, it’s been so long…” Adam pursed his lips, grasping Sara’s hand gently to comfort her, looking up at Lu Li: “My friend…
we’ll be leaving soon…”
His words were suggestive.
“Before we catch up…
I…
we need to clear up the pesky insects…” Sara’s tenderness was replaced by coldness, her gaze fixing on the City Lord’s Assistant hiding by the window: “Your game is—”
“Wait a second.” Lu Li interrupted Sara, looking straight at her: “Don’t kill him, we need his help.”
Sara slowly stood up, her gaze shifting to Lu Li not much less cold: “There’s no need to harm our friendship…
over one person…
is there…?”
Anna didn’t speak, she just stood in front of Lu Li.
Just then, the City Lord’s Assistant gently tugged at a corner of Lu Li’s cloth and, trembling, mustered the courage to say, “Mr.
Lu Li, my house is at 138 Plorin Street.
The key is under the doormat… My sister has hypersomnia, please do not wake her.
Just pick up the bell on the table and shake it three times to wake her up, then… then… take her to the Lord.
Lord Valenteel will make arrangements for her.”
After the City Lord’s Assistant finished speaking, Lu Li looked at Sara, “I agree, so please ignore him.”
In the tense atmosphere, Adam suddenly said, “Since you have asked… but we… hope there won’t be a next time…”
“There will be no next time,” Anna replied softly.
Sara’s icy presence faded, and she walked around the dining table to gently lift the ethereal palm of Anna’s black robe, “Anna… your shell is gone…?”
The recently rescued City Lord’s Assistant stared wide-eyed in shock.
“It vanished along with the ‘Paradise’,” Anna replied stiffly, unaccustomed to the changes in Sara’s emotions.
“Your mood seems off… Is it because of the missing part…?
Maybe I can help you… come with me…” Sara seemed to treat Anna like a sister, holding her pale, ethereal hand as they walked into the bedroom.
“Can’t we talk here?” Anna turned her head to glance at Lu Li, her reluctance to leave him behind evident.
“Just some words…
don’t worry…” Adam comforted.
His words seemed to have a dual interpretation.
Anna followed Sara Adam into the bedroom, leaving only Lu Li and the City Lord’s Assistant in the living room.
“I will keep the secret,” the City Lord’s Assistant said, his expression complex.
He was not as extreme as the Exorcist family, but like most people, he harbored hostility towards the bizarre.
Just like no one likes tsunamis, except those who have never seen one.
“What secret.” Lu Li pulled out a wooden chair and sat at the table.
“Miss Anna is… is…” He felt that the word “bizarre” would carry a derogatory connotation if used to describe Anna.
“No need, that’s not a secret.”
“But Miss Anna wears a robe to hide herself…”
“Just to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
…
“Do you know why I can still maintain sincere…
love…?” Sara’s cheeks unconsciously softened as she thought of Adam, “Because dealing with reptiles…
playing games with them keeps my strength and fiery emotions.”
And also twisted.
Anna thought and replied to Sara, “Lu Li doesn’t like that.”
“What’s most important is that lovers can be happy together… isn’t it…?” She took Adam’s other hand and gently tilted her head as if leaning against him.
“But not doing things that each other dislikes is equally important.”
“You are wrong…”
Sara clearly did not realize this, otherwise Adam wouldn’t have slipped that note to Lu Li.
Although they disagreed on this, they still ended up chatting harmoniously.
About twenty minutes later, they left the room, and Sara Adam bid farewell to Lu Li and Anna.
