In the evening, Lu Li sat on the leather sofa in his independent office, reading various cases by the warmth of the fireplace.

At this point in time, Bai Yu, Gao Qian, and Zhao Feng had left to fight alone for the case they chose.

"Have you found a case you're interested in?"

Next to him, Pan Ming stood up.

"Yes, by the way, please contact the Brotherhood Association. This line cannot be broken."

"Proceed with caution."

"Do not worry."

With that said, the office door was closed, and Lu Li was the only one left in the room, immersed in reading various documents.

[Childswell Street Dog Dismemberment Case]

After a period of reading, he fell in love with this case, and the ins and outs of the matter were actually not difficult to understand——

As the title of the police report goes, a group of vicious dogs attacked passers-by indiscriminately and cut into pieces the bodies of at least 20 people.

Obviously, this is a shocking and extraordinary event in the context of the revival of the spiritual tide.

As for the place where the incident occurred, it was naturally Chidswell Street. According to the district police station, this place is filled with men "leading well-decorated dogs" every night because it is an underground dog trading center.

Dogs stolen from the country are brought here to be sold, and dogs stolen from London are sent to the country so that the dogs can never come near their homes.

"Dog dealers act arrogantly. They not only commit crimes in other neighborhoods, but also often target local citizens. In the past ten years, extortion cases have been frequently reported."

"Generally speaking, these guys use food to lure the dog, and then take the opportunity to steal it. If the dog owner chases him, they will claim that they are charities and help find the dog, and ask for three to eight shillings.

compensate."

"Dog stealing, dog selling, dog meat processing, extortion... a series of black industries combined will bring illegal income of at least 200,000 pounds to the traffickers every year."

The information quoted many veteran police officers' statements. Through them, Lu Li established a preliminary impression:

The place where the dog was trapped.

And this group of dogs that were brutally trafficked became extraordinary creatures when the spiritual tide surged for the first time, and began to take revenge. They first killed the underground dealers, and then began to attack passers-by indiscriminately.

When the sun rose, they disappeared into the mist.

However, it is almost foreseeable that as darkness once again covers the city, vicious dogs will appear and harvest lives along the way home.

"If you kill an innocent person, you will naturally be punished accordingly."

Lu Li raised his eyes and looked out the window.

There is still a little light outside, and it will be dark in about twenty minutes.

Seeing this, he didn't hesitate anymore and looked at the last document. The incident happened in Chizwell Street as well——

To improve efficiency, each person is responsible for one area to avoid overlapping cases.

【Weird Cafe】

The police couldn't think of a suitable name to name this case, so they could only add a general prefix in front of it.

"There is a cafe on the corner of the street. It has been open for about ten years, but the business has never been very good. It has nothing to do with the taste."

"People say that the service attitude and environment here are poor. Although the boss is a very beautiful woman, she is indifferent to others and often ignores the guests because she is distracted."

"In addition, due to disrepair, the house has become somewhat dilapidated, and there is an unspeakable dark substance stuck to the floor. Just like the female boss, she is indeed beautiful, but her temperament is very depressed and sad. Everyone thinks she may have been widowed at a young age.

's sake."

"But this morning, the coffee shop suddenly changed its appearance. The beautiful boss is still the beautiful boss, but the temperament is no longer gloomy, and the decoration pattern has become particularly luxurious."

"When the devil dog was hunting passers-by, a witness hurriedly fled into the cafe and tried to use the glass door to block the vicious dog..."

"Here, the key witness Jennifer received a warm reception. The indifferent female boss personally ground coffee for her and brought hot towels, bread, steaks, knives and forks with a smile."

"According to Jennifer, the boss's craftsmanship is excellent and it is the best coffee she has had in 20 years."

"It is worth mentioning that there is a handsome, tall man in the cafe, smiling and grilling meat for customers and preparing various foods."

Seeing this, the story began to become dull, because no one came to report the crime at all. It was a police officer who passed by and was counting the impact of the spiritual tide on the jurisdiction. He accidentally discovered this scene and did a simple investigation.

“Take refuge—be warmly received—and depart safely at dawn.”

Lu Li whispered, it was very easy to summarize the context of the whole incident, and the doubts were obvious.

First of all, the demon dog, which had become a supernatural being and lost its mind, actually gave up its goal. According to the description, it ran away without even crashing into the glass door.

Why is this happening?

A small hunter was chasing a rabbit in the grassland and accidentally broke into the lion's territory. The moment he smelled the scent, he immediately gave up the hunt and left the forbidden land.

The above is Lu Li's answer.

Secondly, the originally shabby cafe became magnificent at this special node.

This is definitely not the credit of the decoration team. Which team can improve the efficiency so much? The incident happened in the middle of the night, in a span of ten or twenty minutes at most.

So, the revival of spiritual tide can also help upgrade buildings?

Lu Li became even more curious. He happened to have no lunch or dinner, so he could go to the corner cafe and try the delicious coffee that the witness, Ms. Jennifer, would never forget.

By the way, let’s solve the last doubt.

The handsome guy who suddenly appeared and was responsible for the barbecue, where did he come from?

With this in mind, he jumped out of the office window, skipped the stairs, and went directly to the police station's special carriage.

…

Six o'clock in the afternoon, dinner time.

The braised pork cooked in a small Chinese restaurant is very authentic, and the aroma can be smelled from a long distance away. Usually, if you come late, you can't buy it at all.

Officer Wensley, who left the police station early and was supposed to go home to rest, appeared inside. He was very sleepy, but the feeling of hunger in his stomach made it difficult for him to fall asleep.

Therefore, according to his habit, he came to this little famous restaurant and bought a pound of rice and two portions of braised pork.

The rice mixed with potatoes, carrots and meat was piled up like a hill in an extra-large dining basin. When all the diners nearby saw this scene, they looked surprised and prepared to pack up and leave.

The sequelae of the spiritual tide outbreak are gradually being revealed. While everyone is surviving, they are also wary of the special things happening around them.

Of course, Wensley thinks this is a good thing. Citizens who are more vigilant can reduce unnecessary deaths and reduce the pressure on Scotland Yard.

Other than that, he didn't feel there was anything wrong with his state. He had been too busy and stressed recently, causing his body to feel tired, leading to sleepiness and hunger.

"I ate so much when I was twenty. Every time I went out, she would exclaim like a country girl who had never seen the world."

Wensley recalled the past.
