A Weird Theater That Started In London

Mr. Lu, people like you will definitely not stay somewhere all the time, when are you planning to take another adventure?

Although the blood of an explorer is still boiling, a man should enrich himself in addition to satisfying his desire for exploration and gaining an illusory reputation. I am going to study in the New World on the other side of the ocean.

Study! The landlady seemed very excited and asked curiously, Can you tell me which school it is?

Of course, Miskatonic.

Oh, it turned out to be this university. It used to have a branch in our country and was very famous. Later, because of its continuous expansion, it chose to relocate to the New World.

Looking at the smiling Lu Li, the landlady's eyes were filled with admiration, and she half-jokingly said:

If my granddaughter is here, I will definitely arrange for you to meet.

……Land from.

... Yang Kai.

Other tenants: ...

Thanks to the hospitality of this kind lady, everyone had a sumptuous dinner, and the price of the meal was equivalent to three months' rent of a large suite.

As Yang Kai said, the landlord's wife chooses to rent out the apartment purely for the sake of fun, and she reduces or exempts the rent from time to time, and defaults in arrears.

As for where are her children?

Wandering everywhere.

It is known from more than a dozen surrounding streets that an old woman lives here with a wealthy life. She gave birth to a group of wandering children and worked hard for the empire in a foreign land.

...

This apartment seems to hold a lot of secrets.

dangerous?

uncertain.

In the dark attic on the top floor, Lu Li picked up his suitcase and walking stick, and prepared to move to the suite downstairs.

There is a living room, a bathroom, a bedroom, and a spacious balcony.

This made Yang Kai, who had lived in the kennel since the beginning of time travel, envious, but right now he couldn't care less about other things, and began to ask where the secret came from.

That... little bastard with... the card pattern tattooed on his hand?

Lu Li found a suitable adjective and added:

He's on his way to something extraordinary, and it may be over soon.

extraordinary?

gangster?

This field is probably too easy to step into.

Yang Kai felt that it was a coincidence that he had gone through all kinds of hardships and traveled through time. He touched this mysterious area. He didn't expect that the little bastard who ate women and wandered on the streets could do the same.

With this complicated state of mind, he watched Lu Li move out of here, and then began to pack his luggage to escape from this beast den full of insect corpses.

From the beginning to the end, neither of them thought about in-depth investigation. After all, they will buy tickets to cross the sea in ten days or so, and go to the University of Michigan to study together——

Lu Li had to add another reason here, he just didn't like the low-level gangsters, and he still couldn't get on the stage if he came into contact with extraordinary little bastards.

The next day, early morning.

old district.

The dust sweepers were the first to take to the streets.

Sweep—ash!

Sweep—ash!

There were long-sounding yells one after another.

Then the ash collectors rang their bells and came to collect the ashes that had been swept from the fireplace.

For middle-class families, it is best to clean it once a quarter, and for poor people, it can be done once a year to prevent the chimney from catching fire.

Because there are more than a dozen families and nearly forty people living in the seventh-floor apartment, the landlady chose to call for these two services.

However, the noise was so loud that it woke Yang Kai up from his sleep, and when he couldn't fall back asleep, he decided to send the manuscript to the publisher.

In any case, this story must be published in the newspaper as soon as possible so that more people can see it.

Only in this way can the previous guess be verified.

And Lu Li didn't have the habit of staying in bed, and he didn't want to be a personal nanny. He heard from Yang Kai that he was going to find the publisher of the newspaper, but he just nodded and reminded him to come back early, and he didn't say anything else.

well.

Once he didn't believe in the senior's ability and was worried, but now he found out that it was a real thigh, but the other party refused to let him hug him all the time. One can imagine the depression in Yang Kai's heart.

It was close to noon.

This house located in the deepest part of the alley welcomed a special guest. The landlady who was sitting in the hall doing needlework raised her eyes when she heard the knock on the door and said, Who is it?

The dinner yesterday had only one purpose, to remind the tenants to reduce their activities so as not to bring the Pluto plague in.

Because of this, only four people have entered and exited the apartment since this morning.

Dust sweepers, ashes collectors.

Miss Meacham's street boyfriend.

Mr. Yang Kai who went out to contribute.

The former promises not to return anytime soon, so...

When the door was opened, the oppressive feeling brought by a tall figure made the old lady take two steps back. The visitor stood in the shadows, fully armed, and couldn't see his face clearly. It was extremely mysterious.

But after she saw clearly the exaggerated outfit of the visitor, she immediately dispelled her fear.

Ma'am, can I come in?

What do you want to do?

The landlady moved away, wondering why the Knights came to such a place.

Find a gentleman, we need him to provide the necessary assistance.

What is your name?

I don't know, but it looks like this.

The visitor was quickly brought in front of Lu Li.

After a while, a note was left on the desk, and Lu Li accompanied the knight out of the apartment, leaning on his sword and crutches.

Unfortunately, the Pluto plague is spreading.

As the discoverer of the first death case, an extraordinary person, and an enthusiastic citizen who had voluntarily cooperated with the forensic officer to complete the autopsy, the Knights invited him to serve as a consultant to accompany the investigation of the case.

After reading the book all morning, Lu Li found that he was not suitable for studying the Bible. He just memorized the full text and understood the specific meaning so that he could use it accurately according to the relevant situation later.

Why don't you just find something interesting to do.

It is worth mentioning that the power of holy light has not been weakened in this world and can be used normally.

What beliefs do you have here?

Lu Li asked.

The knight who was leading the way didn't talk much, and asked him if he was an outsider, but instead replied seriously: Goddess of the Sun, Goddess of the Night, Goddess of the Earth, God of War, Goddess of Wisdom, God of Steam and Machinery.

These are the six orthodox gods who can freely spread beliefs in the capital without restraint.

Other regions have their own circumstances.

A country can't even unify its beliefs?

A bit like the ancient Greek city-state era.

In addition, four of the city's six orthodox gods are women, but according to Lu Li's observation, the status of women is not high, similar to the fog in the Victorian era.

Then again, Queen Victoria, didn't she also fail to change that situation?

The base of the Knights in the slums is a small castle. Because of its remote location, it looks extremely desolate, and there are not many garrison personnel. Judging from the number of horses——

Two hundred people.

Because when passing by the stables, Lu Li saw that there were about 400 war horses raised here. To form a fighting force and avoid animal tension, one person and two horses were the basics.

Mr. Lu, the head of the regiment has recently been unable to perform his duties due to illness, and the affairs are all handled by the knight commander.

I'll take you to see him.
