Chapter 636 Hell Dark Tide

"Next, what should we do?"

Bai Yu drank the spoiled milk in the glass bottle and asked a good question.

Because the assassination of Queen Victoria entered a bottleneck, Duke rescued a giant who had lost key memories, and the activity of uniting various forces to launch a violent petition to the parliament was also due to the cooling-off period.

"Didn't the royal family require us to report the situation regularly?" Duke said helplessly, "I will write the report in the afternoon and go out later to try my luck."

"Have ideas?"

"Not sure, but gotta try."

After saying that, Lu Li looked up at Bai Yu and the others.

"The skating accident in Regent's Park has not been investigated yet, but there must be something weird at the bottom of the lake. The three of us will continue to go there."

His eyes fell on Pan Ming.

"And you?"

Everyone is looking for things to do for themselves, and there is no shortage of opportunities in London right now. If you go around any block, you can hear strange things, and then follow the clues to find strange creatures.

"Go to the clinic you opened. On Sunday they will send people in today. I have to follow and help take care of it for a while."

This is something that was discussed earlier.

Seeing that everyone except himself had arranged their schedules properly, Lu Li nodded and said, "After the mission entrustment letter is delivered from the nearby police station, you can choose a practice hand for Mi Gao."

In any case, he was also his own cheap apprentice, and he couldn't keep it stocked all the time. Besides, without experience, the ability of the dragon vein warlock would never get used to it.

"Do not worry."

Pan Ming readily agreed to Lu Li's request. Regardless of friendship, he also felt that Mi Gao was worth cultivating. Maybe after the actor left, the boy would write a legend of his own.

"Then... act on your own."

Lu Li looked at the sip of spoiled milk left in the bottle, got up and left the room——

A simple backpack containing the Bible, the Book of Taboo, and holy water.

Both books are good stuff.

The former can provide Lu Li with various divine spells, turning him from a warrior with a lot of blood and a thick shield into a combination of a mage and a priest.

The latter records taboo knowledge about the origin of the world. You must take sanity potion to see the content recorded on it, and you can only read two pages a day, and you will lose part of your sanity if you read more.

According to Mr. Holmes, if you don't hold back your desire for "true knowledge", don't restrain yourself, and keep scrolling down, all kinds of accidents will happen. By then, even death is a luxury.

After nearly a week of reading, Lu Li is still stuck in the monster illustrated book, from the son of the green god, to the giant worm, to last night's God of the Labyrinth, and there is still a thick pile of "Book of Taboo", maybe even The editors don't know how many things are recorded on it.

In addition, Lu Li also had a small-caliber revolver pinned to his waist. It was destined to be ashes, because the Sadhu Sword disguised as a walking stick returned to its owner.

Generally speaking, Lu Li would choose not to use weapons when encountering trash fish that could be killed at will. If the opponent's strength was barely enough, Lu Li would choose to use sword crutches.

When he claws at an enemy, it proves that he has encountered a worthy prey.

...

"Missing?"

Baker Street was extremely noisy at noon, and a tall, thin man with a sharp diamond face was taking notes.

Next to him, stood two police officers, and opposite was a weeping woman.

"Will he encounter misfortune..."

Facing the middle-aged woman in front of him, Holmes' gray eyes still showed no emotion, he was very restrained.

However, from Lu Li's point of view, the great detective dressed up in an "ostentatious" way today, with his hair combed back and a pipe clenched in the corner of his mouth.

In order not to spoil Boss Zhou's plan and allow Holmes to join the detective agency smoothly, Lu Li did not accompany Pan Ming all the way. Of course, Pan Ming's first stop was not Baker Street, but the club in the East District.

Knock Knock Knock——

There was a knock on the door.

Holmes looked up and saw Lu Li standing outside the door. At the same time, a voice came:

"Can I help you?"

"certainly."

Frankly speaking, Holmes had a very good impression of Lu Li, and he was very close to him, and the more he chatted, the more he felt affectionate. Unfortunately, the inseparable friend beside him was disgusting for no reason.

However, this time he came alone.

After beckoning Lu Li to sit next to him, Holmes smiled apologetically and explained, "This is Mr. Lu who lives at No. 23, a general practitioner."

"Besides, he is also our special advisor. He has led a team to solve important cases and has close ties with the royal family."

A policeman speaks.

In an instant, the woman who saw the tear-stained face rushed over, grabbed Lu Li by the corner of his clothes, and asked him to save her child.

Could it be a rescue operation...

But the person involved is in such a hurry, why not just sit here and take notes, and take immediate action?

Lu Li felt that things were not that simple.

Holmes, on the other hand, threw himself back, crossing one leg over the other, with a serious countenance which would have been serious had Dr. Watson been present, for an old partner does this only when he is in deep thought.

"What happened to your child?"

After comforting the woman, Lu Li sat on the sofa next to him, with his fingers facing each other, waiting patiently for the next chapter.

"He... disappeared...hasn't come back for a whole day..."

The voice was intermittent, with uncontrollable sadness, and the woman buried her head and covered her face with her hands.

"Try searching?"

As he said that, Lu Li looked at Holmes, who shook his head with a very solemn expression.

Apparently, things were so tricky that even he couldn't make up his mind.

"I searched, but found nothing."

Another police officer spoke up.

While speaking, the crying became louder.

On the left, Holmes shook his head again. He was hinting to Lu Li: There is nothing he can do on his side either.

It's a pity that the current scene is not suitable, and the reporter is still here, so there are some things that are difficult to say.

Since he was new here, Lu Li didn't know much about the situation, so he asked, "When did the child disappear?"

"yesterday morning."

"I remember it's been foggy in London lately."

"That's right."

The woman was too flustered to speak, but fortunately Holmes had made notes in advance and could answer for her.

To be honest, Lu Li was also quite pessimistic.

After all, in terms of insight and erudition, all ten of them combined cannot compare with Holmes.

"Madam, please calm down."

After receiving the paper with the relevant information, Lu Kai comforted the woman, "Ninety-nine times out of a hundred times when children disappear, they are with their parents or relatives."

"It says that you divorced your ex-husband? We can send someone to the man's house to take a look, maybe it's just a false alarm."
