Bizarre Detective Agency
Chapter 43: 43. Once the best friend
Chapter 43 Forty-three. Once the best friend
The next day, a little earlier.
"This is the reception desk. The number you are contacting has been cancelled due to a large number of reports. It is recommended that you use other methods to contact the other party. Do you have any other questions, sir?"
The female voice came out intermittently from the microphone, and today there was a mist in Belfast, which affected communication a little.
"there is none left."
said Lu Li, who was sitting in the chair behind the desk, and hung up the phone.
It seems that the remaining commission fee is temporarily unavailable.
The street outside the window is hazy, and the residents walk through the bluestone road in the morning mist. Anna was not sitting by the window, she was a little surprised. She floated her cheeks by the door and stared at the sculpture.
She had been like this when Lu Li woke up.
"How long have you watched?"
"It's been a while." Anna opened her mouth, her head bit by bit as she spoke.
"Isn't it moving yet?"
"Yes, I didn't even blink." Anna was a little discouraged and sighed.
Lu Li realized something from his words and asked, "You've been looking at the sculpture, aren't you observing it?"
"No." Anna shook her head, as if she wanted to turn her head but was afraid to do so. "It's so boring so find something to do."
"so?"
"I'm keeping my eyes open longer than Miss Sculpture."
Lu Li didn't know if the sculpture would blink, but he knew that Anna must be very bored.
It’s okay to say it’s fun in the midst of hardship, or it’s boring to look for something, but the truth is that Anna is trapped in the painting after waking up in ghost form, facing repeated scenes day after day – and no one is willing to communicate with her.
This situation changed when Lu Li brought her back, but the problem was still not resolved. Like in the gallery, she can only stay in the small detective agency and cannot go out.
This is undoubtedly a prison for a girl who died of a disease at the age of 18, and whose personality remains at the age of 18.
Maybe find a chance to take her out for a walk?
Lu Li's black eyes softened slightly, and his still calm voice sounded: "Friendship first, competition second."
Ana sneered without looking back: "If you want to compete, you must work hard to be the first!"
"..." Lu Li fell silent.
The atmosphere gradually became dull. Silence and mist drifted in the slightly deserted detective agency.
knock knock --
Two gazes landed on the door at the same time, and one of them blinked subconsciously...
"Ah shit, I lost!"
Anna sighed, her cheeks filled with unwillingness.
"Continue tomorrow, you go to the bedroom and hide."
"Oh."
Anna floated into the bedroom dejectedly, and at the same time did not forget to close the door with her mind.
Lu Li got up and came to the door, and opened the door - the visitor had a relationship with Lu Li.
Just yesterday.
…
"My name is Daisy, we met yesterday, and you gave me a business card..."
Daisy was sitting on the sofa by the wall. She had always been carefree and a little reserved, her legs wrapped in trousers were together, straight and tense.
"I remember."
Lu Li sat in the boss chair, stared at Daisy for a few seconds, and said after the smile on the latter's cheek stiffened, "Is something wrong?"
"I have... I have a commission I want to commission."
"Please say."
Lu Li stretched out his hand to signal her to continue, opened the drawer, took out the notebook, and picked up the pen.
"You should know that I am a supernatural detective agency. Is your commission related to supernatural events?"
"Yes... I have a good friend who died of illness some time ago..."
"You suspect her death was abnormal?"
"Well... not only me, but also some classmates at the time thought she died abnormally..."
"why."
"I don't know...intuition maybe? I know this sounds...incomprehensible, but please listen to me."
"continue."
"Thank you...my friend's name is Anna...we are deer in Shymfast..."
"Please wait, I have something to confirm." Lu Li suddenly closed the notebook and put it on the table together with the pen.
While watching Daisy nervously, Lu Li tilted his head slightly and said to the bedroom door, "Anna."
didn't reply, maybe because Lu Li wasn't loud enough, or Anna didn't want to be exposed to outsiders.
Lu Li continued: "Anna, I have a question."
After a few seconds of silence, a cute voice came from behind the door: "Shh~~~"
Lu Li ignored Anna and asked directly, "I remember you said before that you had a good friend named Daisy. Where is she from?"
Anna was distracted, forgot to hide this, and subconsciously replied: "Belfast, what's the matter?"
"nothing."
Lu Li replied, withdrew his gaze, and his eyes fell on Daisy, who was in disbelief and hesitation: "Miss Daisy, I have accepted your commission. But how much are you willing to pay for this commission."
Daisy didn't answer Lu Li, she suddenly stood up, her eyes were covered with a layer of water mist, complex emotions appeared on her face, she stumbled and shouted to the bedroom: "Anna, is that you!"
"Daisy!?"
A few seconds later, a crisp sound of a prisoner also sounded, and Anna, whose face was full of joy, penetrated from behind the door.
She looked very happy and rushed towards Daisy impatiently. But he stopped abruptly a meter away, and the joy on his face quickly faded away, replaced by fear and withdrawal.
Anna may have thought about it a lot, but Daisy didn't care about it. She jumped at Anna with a cheer like a young girl. It wasn't until she passed through Anna's ghost that she seemed to remember something, and there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
One person and one ghost stared at each other at close range, Daisy had tears in her eyes, and Anna was silent.
Lu Li sighed imperceptibly.
Not because of this scene, but if the idiot didn't come out, he'd have saved up a thousand shillings by now.
knock knock --
At this moment, a sudden knock on the door broke the frozen atmosphere.
Anna and Daisy looked at the door, and then looked at Lu Li behind the desk.
Lu Li raised his hand and pointed to the bedroom: "You can go inside for a while to catch up."
Anna and Daisy looked at each other, suppressed various emotions in silence, and entered the bedroom together.
The door was closed, and the living room returned to calm.
"come in."
Lu Li said to the door.
Squeak-
The door opened, and Oliver sneaked in and looked around.
He just seemed to hear the voice of a woman talking in the room?
"Anna's friend came to visit her." Lu Li explained.
Oliver was stunned, as if thinking about who Anna was, then shuddered and said with a dry smile, "Oh, what an enviable friendship."
"So what are you doing here?"
"The book has been returned, and...give it."
"Letter? A new one?"
"Um……"
"What does the Slavs mean."
"You do not know?"
"Some understand, but don't quite understand."
"She wants you to be Mr. Slav."
"Close the door, from the outside."
