Chapter 605 The Book of Taboo

kill.

No matter where, no matter what era, it is a felony.

However, when Lu Li was brought back to the police station by the police who arrived later, he only made two phone calls.

One for Sergeant Wensley.

One to the Royal Home Secretary.

Immediately afterwards, the police sub-station released them without hesitation. Not only that, the Minister of Internal Affairs also promised that a permit would be issued to Lu Li and the others in order to deal with the more complicated forms in the future.

Probably after killing "people" in the street, they don't have to accept the review and detention of law enforcement agencies.

There are indications that the world will become less and less familiar, as official institutions have been given wind and drastic changes are being made.

"Perhaps, when I wake up tomorrow morning, I will find that everything around me becomes very strange."

On Baker Street, Duke said half-jokingly.

But Lu Li nodded calmly. For the actors, it would be a good thing only if the weirdness no longer hides its whereabouts and becomes traceable.

"I'm not afraid of death, but I'm worried that I won't be able to get into orbit." Before leaving, Bai Yu smiled and said frankly: "If we hadn't met you big guys, I'm afraid we would still be like headless chickens, wandering around. Rampage."

Everyone is waiting for dawn, because there is a strong premonition in their hearts that when they open their eyes again, earth-shaking changes will take place.

To use the words summarized earlier, the spiritual tide is revived, and tonight is likely to be the time when the first big tide comes.

"The drama has begun."

A look of anticipation appeared on Pan Ming's face.

He prefers to be straightforward rather than to collect evidence, analyze it and try it out.

Of course, Lu Li is also very willing to use force to solve the problem without using his brain.

In this way, after participating in a palace banquet and witnessing a paradoxical episode, a group of seven separated.

Lu Li, Duke, and Mi Gao lived at No. 23 Baker Street, while Pan Ming, Bai Yu, Gao Qian, and Zhao Feng lived at No. 169, a hundred meters away, not far from Holmes' home.

click.

The door closes.

Lu Li slandered and lit several kerosene lamps one by one, lighting up the clinic.

"I'm really not a good doctor."

"But you're a good detective, the officially certified one." Duke took over, and he casually hung his coat on the rack. "Go to Scotland Yard's headquarters as soon as possible tomorrow and get the relevant information."

In fact, Duke has always been curious about the mechanical monster that Lu Li said.

After all, in the era when gas and internal combustion engines were just popularized in cities, who on earth created something that could talk and fight, and what was the motivation?

If it weren't for the remains being transported, Duke wouldn't even be in the mood to sleep right now.

"At present, the royal family's knowledge of the assassination case is almost zero."

"If there is progress, they don't need to entrust Scotland Yard and invite the private investigation team to help."

During the conversation between the two, the boy Michael hesitated to speak. He was loyal to the country and supported the royal family headed by Queen Victoria, but the master did not hide himself, saying that he would secretly contact the Brotherhood and start a bloody incident— —

Vested interests will not give up all kinds of power for no reason. These people have guns and cannons, and they have a lot of social resources. They will definitely suppress them.

Although Mi Gao couldn't express the above truth, he knew the analogy:

The poor gather together and want the owner of a bakery in a prosperous area to give each of them a piece of bread and half a glass of milk, but they will definitely get rejection and abuse.

When it rises to the national level, violent agencies will mobilize all of them to suppress them all, and throw the leaders into prison.

In this way, countless irreparable tragedies will occur, and the two princesses who may temporarily live in Buckingham Palace may also be implicated and affected.

The monarch of the neighboring country was sent to the guillotine in a movement.

And Mi Gao didn't want such a violent and bloody incident to happen in his own country. At the same time, he was born in poverty, and he also desperately hoped that the people in the East District would no longer be oppressed and could support their families through hard work.

Amidst the entanglement, the three returned to their respective rooms.

Mi Gao was tossing and turning in bed unable to fall asleep, while Duke was lying on the sofa by the fireplace, snoring soon.

Inside the master bedroom.

The light was dimly lit, and Lu Li was lying on the bedside flipping through the wordless cowhide book, which was left by the previous owner, a crappy doctor who graduated from Miskatonic University.

After taking the time to consult Holmes, he got the correct way to open it: taking sanity potion.

After drinking this special liquid, you can see things that you can't normally see, including but not limited to hidden text, but the legendary detective didn't introduce too many other functions, just gave the potion formula.

[Son of the Green God: With slender ears, sharp rodent-like teeth, bulging eyes, and hair covering the whole body, he lives underground with the Green God in Warrentang.

They hate the sun and are quick to move. They usually advance by jumping. At the same time, they are not brave. When encountering enemies, they use numerical superiority to win...]

[Giant Devouring Worm: A huge meat worm hundreds of feet long, covered in mucus, with a large forked mouth on its head, the summoning conditions are as follows...]

This is an illustrated book of strange monsters, some of which have summoning conditions attached.

In the Dharma-ending era, these messages are equivalent to nothing, but with the return of the spiritual tide, the things recorded in the book finally have value.

According to the doctor, combined with the content of the book, the reason why his close classmate fell on the way to find the truth was because a certain ritual was successful.

It's just that Lu Li doesn't know which ritual it is for the time being, because he can only read two pages a day.

"Looking at the thickness, it may take two or three years to read all of it."

"Perhaps, the further you get to the back, the more taboo the knowledge you come into contact with, and the reading conditions will increase accordingly, so you have to stay sane throughout the process."

After closing the cowhide casually, Lu Li turned off the bedside lamp and closed his eyes to rest.

Although these are not necessary, he can see things at night, and he doesn't need to rest for a long time like ordinary people, but their existence satisfies the sense of ritual, and makes Lu Li always remember that he should not "consider himself too high." , what a god.

...

Before dawn, on the roads leading to various blocks, there was an endless stream of horse-drawn carriages, and the owner of the coffee stand carried the burden of coffee cans on his shoulders. The charcoal fire in the small cans had already been lit, and the burnt aroma spread outward.

The residents of Baker Street walked out of the house one after another. The young man lost sleep all night and walked towards the market with his purse. Soon, his figure disappeared into the thick fog, as if swallowed by something.
