After Mi Gao left, Lu Li got up from the bed, opened the window, and went to wash up.

Fog.

Today, this title has become worthy of its name, and the entire city has experienced the thickest smog.

Sometimes it’s sunny, sometimes it rains heavily, and sometimes it’s foggy. Local residents talk about this unpredictable and weird weather.

In addition, stories about ghosts and ghosts have also become popular among the people.

"morning."

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Duke. This guy came out of the bathroom. His face was full of excitement, without any trace of tiredness as if he had just woken up. He said hello to Lu Li, and then said:

"It is now 6:13. When the boy comes back with breakfast, it will be about 7:30. We will set off for the Scotland Yard headquarters on Whitehall Street at 8 o'clock."

"You can see the mechanical monster you've been dreaming about by nine o'clock at the latest."

Lu Li agreed with a smile, and at the same time, he took a glass of water from the faucet and prepared to wash up.

Then, the strong smell of blood in the cup made him frown.

"Dead people."

"Well, there was probably something wrong with the water plant, and someone threw the body in."

The first thing Duke did when he got up was to go to the bathroom to fill the water, but he didn't have the habit of flushing it away, so the guy came over, got close to the cup in Lu Li's hand and smelled it.

There is no doubt about the smell of blood.

"The murder case is closer to us. In the past, we had to take the initiative to find it, but now..."

Squeak.

Before he finished speaking, the sound of the door downstairs being pushed suddenly sounded.

Soon, Pan Ming and others appeared in the living room on the second floor. The first thing he said was: "The tap water cannot be used. The smell of corpses and blood is too strong."

"To us, the smell is particularly obvious, but ordinary residents may not be able to distinguish it. If an unknown person spreads the plague through the water plant, at least 100,000 households will be affected."

Everyone began to discuss the newly discovered things with great interest and even excitement.

"Our group of idle classmates must have been busy all night last night. There were strange phenomena everywhere." Duke sat on the sofa and asked curiously, "I just don't know if anyone is out."

Because they went to bed early, everyone did not intuitively experience the various perceptions brought about by the drastic changes in the world, but they felt that a phenomenon similar to the Oriental Ghosts Walking at Night appeared in many neighborhoods.

"When the newspapers arrive soon, we can roughly estimate the scale of the spiritual tide."

After the initial freshness, Lu Li became calmer. He briefly washed himself with the half bucket of water he had collected last night, and sat down with the members of the investigation team.

Everything is expected, isn't it?

Somehow, Lu Li thought of Yang Yuanyuan, who was acting outside the team. She was investigating the Tuli Street fire case on her own and didn't know what the situation was.

There is a high probability that you are in trouble.

After all, it is not an easy task to get the reward that makes all private detectives and bounty hunters crazy. Coupled with the sudden surge of spiritual tides, the difficulty will increase exponentially...

After thinking for a while, Lu Li settled his thoughts. Their current goal was very clear:

Investigate the Queen's assassination.

In the long run, we have to consider the uprising route.

While working hard for the royal family, he also thought about giving a heavy blow to the aristocracy and black-hearted capitalists headed by the royal family.

It can only be said that adults consider interests the most, and Lu Li didn't think there was anything wrong with him jumping sideways repeatedly.

"There are opportunities everywhere. I can't say that everything is weird, but as long as you are willing, you will definitely find something."

Bai Yu didn't mind that the matter was too big at all. He whistled and looked forward to what changes the actors would bring to the city——

A group of powerful people who want to cause trouble have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. It is almost foreseeable that the police station will have a headache today.

"There is no limit to the climb, keep climbing higher and higher." Lu Li poured cold water on him and said in a deep voice, "The real drama has just begun. Although we have not encountered any life-threatening trouble, based on past experience, in another month at most, the world will change.

Extremely dangerous.”

"That person... won't make it easy for us."

As soon as he finished speaking, the room became quiet.

Bai Yu and others quickly adjusted their mentality. They admitted that after joining a team composed of class leaders, they felt a sense of security and could not hide their pride.

However, these are actually all illusions.

Even Lu Li can only guarantee that he will not be at a disadvantage in the early stage. However, as the intensity of the spiritual tide increases, even he will be exhausted to cope with it.

[No capping, climbing higher and higher]

This comment can be called a curse, and it applies to everyone. Whether you are a freshman or a junior, whether you are an ordinary student or an outstanding student who is known as a seed player, no one can pass the exam comfortably.

In the silence, a shadow emerged from the fireplace, it was the witch who only had one life left.

At this moment, she became even more dangerous, exuding an enchanting charm, and her originally curvy figure became even hotter.

If left to the outside world to speculate, his true age will definitely be completely opposite to the guessed results!

She had no memory of anything during her lifetime, and it took less than two months for her to recover after her death, which turned her into this.

If the witch is not controlled early, she will definitely become extremely troublesome. After experiencing at most two spiritual surges, she can fight Lu Li head-on.

Fortunately, the Soul Binding Bolt still works.

At this moment, the witch stood obediently in front of her without any drastic actions, which is the best evidence. She regretted in her heart:

If he hadn't provoked the other party that night, he would have definitely become stronger when the spiritual tide surged for the first time, and by then, he would have been able to carry out his revenge plan.

It's a pity that she doesn't have the ability to go back in time, which belongs to the realm of gods.

"It seems that your abilities have been enhanced, congratulations." Lu Li congratulated the witch, who was becoming more and more proud, and asked, "Can you tell me the specific extent of the enhancement?"

It seemed polite, but the witch had no right to refuse the answer. She replied: "On the original basis, various abilities have been strengthened."

"As long as there are negative emotions nearby, I can use them to resurrect, but the number of times is not unlimited..."

Speaking of this, the blonde witch thought of the night when she was violently captured. Wolf claws, sword blades, and strange bloodthirsty spells made her reborn dozens of times.

If you hadn't experienced it yourself, it would be unimaginable that there could be such boring people in the world.

The next period of time passed very quickly. When the discussion was coming to an end, Mi Gao came back with a pile of ingredients and newspapers.

"Sir, today the market is full of all kinds of strange stories, as if they appeared overnight."

As he spoke, the boy placed the Times on the long table, followed by fresh milk and meatloaf.

For safety reasons, Duke lowered his head and took a sniff. He wasn't very worried before, but after the drastic changes in the world, it was better to be cautious to avoid eating anything weird.

Lu Li, on the other hand, focused his attention on today's headlines——

Tragedy, Regent's Park ice skating accident.

[Last night, the temperature dropped abnormally near Regent's Park and the river froze. Countless men who were excited about the parade were skating here.

Although "the staff responsible for monitoring ice conditions at the Royal Humane Society" warned people that there was something strange about the cooling and the ice was very thin, more than 5,000 people still gathered friends and skated in the round pond...

In the end, it led to tragedy.】

According to the editor of The Times, the lake in Regent's Park comes from the Tiber River, which has a turbulent undercurrent. The Humane Society asked the police to disperse the skating crowd and keep the excited tourists away from the place——

But the head of the association was told that the police did not have such power. After all, skating may be dangerous, but it is not illegal.

In this way, more and more people gathered, thinking that this was some strange natural phenomenon that could not be seen in thousands of years.

When the number of people reached more than 5,000, the ice surface suddenly cracked into countless squares like a chessboard, and water seeped out of the cracks. All the tourists came to their senses and rushed to the shore desperately, but there were still a large number of people.

Trapped on rapidly cracking ice.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, the Humane Society had no time to rescue them and could only watch the unlucky ones fall into the water and then disappear under the ice.

As of press time, the bodies of only thirty tourists have been recovered by the association.

Judging from the black-and-white photos of the scene attached to the newspaper, there was nothing special about the Humane Society. They used ropes, wicker ice boats, sleds, boat hooks, and cork life belts, and there was no special equipment.

At first glance, it seems that the tragedy was caused by blind obedience of the people, but it happened at this juncture, which means it is destined to be anything but simple.

The river suddenly froze?

At the moment, Baker Street is filled with thick fog, and the air is filled with water droplets and small ice crystals, but it is not enough to freeze the river. Therefore, only the Regent's Park area is experiencing a sharp drop in temperature.

A city can have a variety of weather conditions coexisting?

Moreover, it is still extreme weather.

If you think about it with your toes, you will know that something is going on.

In addition, the residents near Regent's Park are all from middle-class backgrounds and have received a certain level of education. There is no chance that they cannot understand warnings. Just like when the Tully Street fire broke out, they fell into a group obsession.

Regarding this point, the newspaper also pointed it out. They interviewed a resident living nearby——

When the terrible accident happened, I had just finished the parade, rested at home for a while, and was about to go to the Garrick Club to meet Germaine Reed, a young musician.

At about 3:15 in the morning, I passed by Regent's Park. Many people were skating. This was really a wonderful phenomenon. Such good things did not happen in other areas.

Looking back now, I didn't even question this unusual scene. Instead, I came up with the idea of ​​renting skates to see if I had forgotten my skating skills. But an agreement with a friend saved me.
