Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 652

   The night was dark, and the thick fog that could not be dispelled surged outside the house, and even the fire was dark.

   After waiting for more than ten seconds, the second knock on the door did not come again.

   There was no breathing outside the door, and there was no obscurity.

   "You stay to protect Lu Li, I'll go take a look." Remi, worried that the knock on the door was a bait, went through the wooden door.

  Lu Li and Anna waited, and after a while, the wooden door was pushed open from the outside, and Remi's illusory palm was holding a lump of rough hemp rope: "There is a lump of rope on the ground at the door...Is it the séance rope you said?"

  The sea breeze blew into the wooden house, the fire became even weaker, and the black cat lying beside the fire ran to Lu Li's legs.

  Remi closed the wooden door, and Anna came to her and took the hemp rope. It was just a piece of ordinary hemp rope that was badly frayed, shaggy and curled, with no breath on it.

   But ordinary twine won't suddenly appear at the door in the weird fog.

   At the same time, old Miklos' weak and weak whispers suddenly sounded in the hut: "Please...help me..."

   Anna, who was holding the hemp rope, seemed to hear more and said to Lu Li, "It wants you to help her free her."

  Remi's eyes were filled with surprise, and she didn't think that the evil spirit who visited the door wanted to express this meaning.

   "Is there still a chance to be rescued?" Lu Li looked at the hemp rope calmly, as if he didn't notice anything: "Old Miklos can become a new resident of Elm Forest."

  Remi put aside her unfounded suspicions about Anna because of these words. Maybe thinking about it too much. How could Anna, who regarded Lu Li as more important than everything else, didn't know that the evil spirit could protect Lu Li better, and the humanity gained by killing it would only make Lu Li sweeter and more delicious.

   "It won't last until dawn if we don't do anything." Anna shook her head and replied.

  Old Miklos was too weak to make a sound, knocking on the door and mutilated pleas seemed to be the last strength.

   Without any hesitation, Lu Li picked up the holster and poured salvation on the old Miklos body on the floor.

  chi——

  Colorless, steam-like smoke gushed out from the hemp rope, and the next moment, Lu Li's consciousness was brought into the retrospective of old Miklos' death.

  …

  The dim yellow light of the autumn sun filtered through the mottled windows and spilled into the theater.

  The empty seats stretched out, and the dust drifted in the air.

  Lu Li was standing in the aisle, the sunset pouring into the theater fell on the vamp. Make him look more lively.

  Kacha——

  The sound of the organ resounded in the empty theater, and a hemp rope fell from the stage where the audience could not see it.

The    echoes dissipated, and the humming of the twine could even be heard in the silent theater.

   But soon, slow footsteps broke the silence, and an aging figure walked onto the stage from behind the scenes.

   Old Miklos looked older than he was, perhaps because his back was too curved. He trembled toward the dangling séance rope, but his steps were firm.

   Lu Li leaned forward slightly.

   But at this moment, old Miklos seemed to have discovered something. He lay down on the floor slowly and awkwardly, took a breath at his sleeve, and carefully wiped a stain on the stage.

   This action made Lu Li stop what he wanted to block.

  The old Miklos who stood up almost fell again. He was too old. He took a rest for ten seconds before walking to the hemp rope again, and he took a few breaks to tie the rope.

   The hemp rope that was finally tied was half a head higher than him, but old Miklos suddenly straightened his back, tucked his head into the rope, and slammed his legs like a naughty child.

  The empty theater, the empty stage, the struggling old Miklos quickly lost his vitality, hanging in the hemp rope and swaying slightly like a swing.

   "I really want to... go back and take a look..."

   A faint sigh rang in his ears.

  …

  The fire came into view, and Lu Li escaped from the death retrospective.

  Ana took the holster from Lu Li's hand and picked up the redemption where the twine disappeared and fell on the floor: "How much humanity did you get?"

   She could clearly feel the changes in Lu Li when the seance rope disappeared.

   This kind of change is not on the surface, at least there is no change in the appearance of Luli. It's more of a smell-like feeling.

   "Hot and delicious food" Anna subconsciously thought, and was disturbed by the thought.

  Because in the beginning, she contradicted Lu Li's humanity, but now it's the exact opposite...

   "A little less than Sarah Adam..." Lu Li replied after feeling it carefully.

  After the increase in the Doomsday Apocalypse, Sarah Adam brought nearly 9 copies of humanity. Old Miklos is less than 7 servings. Now Lu Li has nearly 20 copies of humanity.

   "Lu Li's breath is more difficult to hide." Remi said that she and her brother existed in the book and would not be affected by instinct. "Fortunately we can build the safe house tomorrow."

  This is destined to be a tortuous road. Without elevating humanity, a dangerous environment can devour the sanity. To enhance human nature, it will turn to the young deer that strayed into the dark forest.

   Fortunately, Elm Forest, Anna and the others and the deep sea stone built a barrier to protect Lu Li from the strange invasion.

  The flames returned to calm, and the black cat soon came to the fire again to keep warm. Lu Li also reopened "Sound of Misery"

  The title of the book already reveals that this will not be a work with a happy ending.

   Now this has been slowly revealed.

   Jamie, who drank the elixir of immortality for the fourth time, lost his emotions.

   Nothing makes him happy, sad, distressed, or excited.

   This is within Jamie's acceptance - emotions do more good than harm to an alchemist. Compared with the flash of inspiration when excited, it is more important not to fail alchemy due to emotions.

   Of course, I think this is not because Jamie doesn’t care about emotions, but because he has lost his emotions, naturally it will not lead to pain and sadness.

  Losing emotions means that it is hard to have anything in this world that he cares about. wealth? status? woman?

  It all comes from emotion, and it will naturally be destroyed by Jamie.

   Only inertia propels him to continue his alchemy experiments, and he does not wait to grow old again.

   Then the sense of touch disappears.

   This is similar to pain, but more severe than pain. Because it means Jamie can't feel everything. Only eyes and ears could prove what he was doing.

   It took him several hours to even come out of the basement after drinking the potion, and his bruised face frightened the servant.

  Jamie thought he could get used to losing touch just like any other lost thing, but he couldn't do it at all. Days passed and he still fell while walking because he didn't know how much force to use because there was no feedback from his body. Experience is meaningless here.

   It's not that bad. Perhaps for bad taste, Flo Mitchell describes Jamie's incontinence.

   But even so, Jamie did not give up on the transformation of the immortality potion.

   He succeeded and miraculously returned to his 20-year-old appearance when he drank the potion while in a wheelchair.

   Then Jamie developed an emotional potion, which can temporarily give him the emotions he lost, but unfortunately the others can't come back...

   In short, he got eternal life.

  No one can kill him, no one can deprive him of time.
