Chapter 96 Twelve. Interrupted Clues and New Clues

  Bryan, whose full name is Ida Brian, lives at Gate 6, No. 308, Huayu Street, Shouwang Town, female.

  Yes, women. O'Connor occupies a female body.

  Whether it was O'Connor's choice or Richard's bad taste is unclear, in any case, Brian, who suffered this disaster, was a poor woman.

   "Although the victim is pitiful, I think the victim's husband is also pitiful..." Anna whispered.

  The carriage has arrived at Huayu Street and just passed No. 300 Huayu Street, where there is a ceramic shop.

   308 Huayu Street is a longhouse, similar to the longhouse on Sailor Street, but more rudimentary. The dilapidated wooden walls are thin and unable to keep out the rain, which may be difficult for those who live here in rainy days and winters.

  The carriage stopped, Lu Li got off the carriage, and Anna walked into the main entrance of the longhouse with her company.

  The corridor was quiet, and the gas lamps on the walls were dimly emitting a dim light.

   knock knock --

  Standing in front of door 6, Lu Li raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door, the knocking sound echoed.

  Kacha——

   The door rang, but not the one in front of him.

   An old man who was carrying garbage and was about to take it out walked out of the door behind him and said casually, "Little Ada is not here, do you have anything to do with her?"

   An unpleasant smell spread from the room behind her into the hallway, the smell seemed to be something rotting.

   Lu Li turned around and asked, "I'm a detective, and I want to find out something about her. Do you know where she is."

  The old man looked at Lu Li with his cloudy eyes, and those eyes made Lu Li feel awkward.

   Determined that Lu Li is not like a bad person, the old man shook his head and said, "I don't know. She just left and took a lot of things. Maybe she went to Belfast, you can try to find her there."

   "Okay, thank you." Thanks politely, and watched the old man slowly walk towards the corridor. Lu Li's gaze paused behind the old man's open door, then moved away, and said to the surrounding space, "Go in and have a look."

  Ana revealed her figure to answer, and floated behind the door. After a while, he came out and shook his head regretfully: "There is no one inside."

   "We're late." Lu Li frowned.

  O'Connor's hurried departure was too coincidental. It can almost be judged that O'Connor knew that Lu Li had dealt with Hall, and then packed up and ran away.

   As for how O'Connor knew... Lu Li is unknown.

   "What do I do next? Where can I find it?" The clue was suddenly interrupted, and Anna was a little annoyed. "I would have known that I would keep Hall for the time being."

   Lu Li couldn't keep Hall, even if he knew the truth. It has nothing to do with what he did. Lu Li was not someone who would entrust his safety to other things, even if it was just an ordinary ghost.

   Besides, Hall is not ordinary, the red eyes appearing on his body are enough to make Lu Li vigilant and fearful.

   "Go back first."

  Lu Li said calmly, and turned to leave the corridor.

   Back to the carriage, the falling curtains blocked the noise on the street, and in the small and quiet space, only the sound of raindrops falling on the roof, and the blinking eyes of Anna beside her.

  Anna felt that Lu Li had other ideas, because there was no fluctuation in those eyes like black gems, like stagnant water.

   Of course Lu Li has other ideas, but the hidden danger is very big: just tell the night watchman about Richard's conspiracy, and they will help Lu Li find Richard.

   But then the problem ensues. Contacting Richard first is a hassle. Joel's ability to talk and appreciate Lu Li is only based on him, and it is unlikely that the Night's Watch will allow Lu Li to approach Richard. And Richard would almost definitely maliciously leak out that Lu Li had been in contact with the door. This will make Lu Li passive until it is clear what the "door" is.

   Lu Li reached out under the car curtain and waved the reins. The obedient old horse stepped forward and walked slowly on the wet bluestone road.

  The roof of the car blocked most of the drizzle, and some raindrops fell on the face, bringing a slight coolness.

   Lu Li's black eyes slightly lost focus and continued his previous thoughts.

   In addition to this one, he has alternative plans: join the Night's Watch, or the Demon Slayer organization.

   By joining these two organizations, Lu Li will be able to use the resources to find Richard. But the drawbacks are also obvious: the former works for the Principality of the Ellen Peninsula or above, with an official background. Joining them is almost conceivable: restricted freedom, militarized management. The demon slayer organization looks a little better on the surface, because the prerequisite for becoming a demon slayer, "resolving a resentful spirit" Lu Li can already be regarded as complete - Michelia was indirectly resolved by Lu Li, she is a resentful spirit, Lu Li reluctantly It can be regarded as the threshold for joining the demon slayer.

   But the problem also appeared. The Demon Slayer Organization was a secret organization and would not appear in the public eye. Lu Li didn't know how to contact them. Maybe it would be a good idea to spread the word and wait for the Demon Slayer Organization to find it, but Lu Li knew very well that he couldn't really solve a grievance.

  Although he has no interest in pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, Lu Li doesn't want to see a reputation that exceeds his strength.

   That means trouble. Maybe from the same kind, maybe from the weird.

  In the carriage, Anna held her chin, leaning against the window to look at the street scenery.

  The raindrops that fell into the carriage passed through her transparent soul, and the breeze blew a strand of hair.

  Anna's tranquility didn't last long, and the carriage stopped with the sound of "single rhythm" in front of her.

   Turning his head in confusion, he saw Lu Li muttering to himself, "She just told you about you."

"what?"

  Lu Li turned his head and looked at Anna: "The old man who lives across from O'Connor told me 'you'."

   "That's right, didn't we go together?" Anna still didn't understand what Lu Li meant.

   "How can she see you?"

   "Of course... eh!?" Anna's clear eyes gradually widened, and she finally realized something.

   On the streets of Shouwang Town, a carriage made a U-turn in the cold and empty street and drove back the same way.

  …

  No. 308, Huayu Street.

  A slender figure walked into the corridor of the longhouse.

  The promenade is as quiet as ever, and occasionally the voices of other residents can be heard behind the thin walls.

   came to door 6, the door opposite it was open, it was the same as when they left.

   The rotten smell lingered at the door, standing in front of the door, quietly looking at the space behind the door. The room was covered in dust and it seemed that no one had cleaned it for a long time.

  The old man didn't come back, and the room didn't seem to have been lived in before, which intensified Lu Li's guess.

   "Ask the neighbors, who lives here." Lu Li tilted his head and said.

   "Huh? Me?"

"I."

   Remembering that Anna was a ghost, Lu Li ordered himself to turn and walk to the other room.

   Ten minutes later, within 12 doors.

   "The last tenant on the 12th door opposite the 6th door was a month and a half ago, and the last occupant was a middle-aged male. There are no elderly people living in the whole longhouse."

  Lu Li stood behind the door, quietly narrating the situation.

   This information almost confirms that the old man is O'Connor.

  Anna pouted: "It's a pity that he ran away and the clue was cut off again..."

  Lu Li shook his head lightly, his black eyes looking around.

   "No, Brian told us the clue."
