Bizarre Detective Agency
Chapter 592: One hundred and sixty-nine. Remember us
Chapter 592 One hundred and sixty nine. Remember us
The "carriage" is left in the backyard, and it is easy to miss the survivors in the carriage, and the church is not too far from the safe house.
The long and humid street with gray and dark tones, Anna Wang Luli walked on the street, they were like a pair of lovers.
The reason made Anna's eyes more crooked was that Lu Li took the initiative to let her hold him - even though the reason was that Lu Li needed to spy on Upside Down City, and he had to be supported by someone to avoid bumping into pedestrians.
On the way to the church, a shrill scream that didn't look like a disguise cut through the night sky, not far from them. Lu Li and the others were late, and by the time they arrived, the poor fellow had already been gathered and eaten by several monsters. One of the middle-aged people with a blood-stained face cursed loudly, it should have enjoyed its own flesh and blood, if not for the screams of the human being.
Ana showed a trace of fear and panic when it looked here, which of course was fake, Lu Li almost saw the demon tail swinging behind Anna's back.
Lu Li acquiesced to Anna's tricks. Compared with the previous Anna, now this kind of flesh and blood Anna, who will take the initiative to do something and express her emotions, is more like a person.
That monster was really hooked, it didn't dare to disturb the other monsters, and secretly followed behind Lu Li and Anna, while Anna deliberately embraced Lu Li and walked into a dark alley not far away.
Weird followed into the alley, and after dozens of seconds, only Lu Li and Anna walked out from the other side of the alley.
"How much humanity is there now?" Anna asked softly.
She calculated that after entering the Upside Down City, they killed about 30 monsters. Although they were all weak and ghost-like, they added up.
"1.2...or 1.3."
Human nature is difficult to quantify, so Lu Li can only make a rough guess based on his intuition. Coupled with the increase in the Doomsday Apocalypse, the human nature should be around 2.5 ordinary people.
This means that every 50 monsters hunted will increase the amount of one person. The good news, of course, is that Upside Down has tens of thousands of weirdness.
It’s a pity that Anna can’t do it alone, with redemption, she can clear an entire block in less than ten minutes.
Echoing Church, several renovations of this almost three-hundred-year-old cathedral still haven't lost it's characteristics of that period - the towering top of the hat is like an ancient knight's spear piercing the sky, and the edge is carved with a demigod stone statue of a god, compassionate Looking down at the weirdness of the disguised man below.
When Lu Li and the others arrived, it was exactly three o'clock in the morning. The bell on the tower rang, and three long bells rang in every inch of the ground.
The tombstones lined up behind the low wall are more suitable for this scene than any other moment. A figure in a robe was digging with a shovel in the open space next to the church, and he didn't care that the corners of his clothes were soiled by the wet soil.
Lu Li raised his head, saw that he was not in Upside Down City, and walked over with Anna.
The figure found them, put down the shovel, and the darkness under the cloak watched Lu Li as he approached.
"I'm from the same place as Emma." Lu Li said directly.
"We've been waiting for your arrival." The figure nodded lightly, then looked at the church door behind him. "They're all in there."
The figure continued to raise the shovel and dig the wet soil.
Behind him, there were more than a dozen earthen pits on the brown ground that could accommodate the next body.
Without saying anything, Lu Li walked towards the church.
The solemn murmurs echoed in the ears as they approached the church, which seemed to be singing and prayers. Dim lights dotted the church, dozens of figures in robes with their heads bowed sitting between the pews, mass-like whispers scattered from between them, gathered together, and constantly echoed and washed in the Echo Church, forming a strange and eerie scene. .
Frankly, no one would believe that these bizarre believers were human.
Lu Li and Anna stood at the door waiting, not disturbing their prayers.
After a few minutes, their whispers faded into meditation.
It's hard to imagine that a church with dozens of people will become so quiet. But soon, the silence was broken by the sound of footsteps. The figure on the podium walked between the benches and softly called a believer to follow him, walking towards Lu Li and Anna at the door.
The called believers lifted their cloaks and revealed Emma's face: "Mr. Lu Li, Miss Anna, he is our priest."
She introduced each other.
Father's old voice came from under the cloak: "Emma told me about your strange ability... That's a gift God gave you, right?"
"Maybe."
Lu Li really couldn't find the reason why he could spy on the Upside Down City, maybe it was because of human nature?
Anna stared at Emma with disgust, disliked her betrayal and informant, Lu Li didn't care, he didn't intend to hide this ability, if they didn't conspire.
"Welcome, children." The priest opened his arms and said softly.
"But you didn't even show your face." Anna sarcastically said.
"It's just an ugly face." The priest answered slowly and carelessly, walking towards the confession room in the corner. "Please come with me, there will be some trials before joining."
"We don't plan to join you." Lu Li said.
But the departed godfather didn't hear it, or didn't care... Emma followed behind like a devout believer.
"You call the shots." Anna gently said to Lu Li, who was looking at her.
Lu Li nodded, because of some speculation, he chose to follow.
Father walked into the confession room, while Emma stood at the door. Looking at the hazy figure behind the hollow wooden window, Lu Li felt some familiarity.
"Just a few very simple questions... Have you ever believed in a god?"
"No."
"Will you help those in need?"
"meeting."
"Will you sacrifice yourself to save others?"
This question made Lu Li no longer answer immediately, but at this moment, Anna next to him replied for Lu Li, "We won't."
"It's a selfish one!" Emma said excitedly, looking at Lu Li and Anna's eyes from friendliness to disgust——
"Emma...don't let emotions guide your thinking."
The old voice from the confession room made Emma drop her head and hide her emotions. The wooden door of the confession room was pushed open, and the priest came out with a regretful tone: "You can't be His people."
"If your ears are not decorations, you should be able to hear what Lu Li said." As Emma's attitude changed, Anna's hostility towards them was no longer concealed.
Father didn't care about the conflict, and asked gently, "Can I ask you one thing?"
"what."
"There's weirdness among us, it's well-camouflaged... Please help us find it."
This is not very troublesome, Lu Li agreed: "I can't do it in the church, come to the cemetery outside."
After a few minutes, all the believers gathered outside the church, and Lu Li also found out the weirdness mixed into them.
"What are you going to do with it?" Lu Li asked the priest beside him.
"God will punish it for us."
Anna didn't like this oppressive atmosphere, so Lu Li didn't plan to stay any longer. Before leaving, he remembered something and asked the priest, "Will you let me remember?"
Father paused.
"Yes, please remember us."
