Chapter 136: The Missing Girl
London, a cosmopolitan metropolis.
Because it is shrouded in dense fog all year round, the air is cold and damp, and it is called the fog capital. However, after a long period of environmental protection policy, it is now significantly better.
Here, tradition and modernity meet, and the afterglow of the ancient rigidity of the empire stubbornly welcomes the impact of the new century.
One of the impressions that London gives Li Mo is that there are many museums, but there are very few people visiting them.
There are also many bars, almost every section is one, but there are a lot of people in the bar, all of them like to walk around with wine glasses.
The atmosphere of the bar here was completely unsuitable for Li Mo, and he turned around and left the bar called "Bill's Barrel" after two drinks.
When he came to the street, the drizzle began to fall at some point, and Li Mo, who was helpless, called a black taxi back to the hotel.
After his events in the small town of Baden-Baden, Germany, he came to England.
If it weren't for the fact that the Nine Realms were about to coincide from the demon's mouth, he really forgot about the invasion of the dark elves.
To be honest, although it was a big event in the movie, it seemed to him that it was the same thing.
There will always be so much hatred in this world, does Odin have to be righteous, the unlucky and dead witch Keith doesn't think so.
There will always be so many villains who want to destroy the world, but the sun still rises as usual.
In addition to the reason for agreeing to Odin's conditions, he also wanted to avoid the death of the queen of heaven, Friggia, after all, he taught himself carefully for a while.
There is also the reality gem, can your own vine absorb the energy in it, and if so, what kind of benefits will it bring?
He remembered that in the original plot it was Jane. Foster discovers the aether particle, but when he investigates, he discovers that the woman has been staying in Norway and doesn't know what to do.
After coming to London, he didn't hear about any strange spatial overlap, so he could only wait here helplessly.
The taxi stopped in front of a historic hotel called Besly, and the Indian doorman in a crimson suit and black bow tie immediately opened the door with a smile and said hello when he saw Li Mo, and received a five-pound tip.
There are very few people in the hotel, one is because of the people in the off-season, and the other is affected by the subway bombing some time ago.
In front of the elevator, the back of a woman attracted Li Mo, she had long black curly shawl hair, a black tight dress that reflected her skin fairer, and her two long legs were even more seductive.
Li Mo glanced at it appreciatively, then walked to the side and waited for the elevator together.
With a ding, the elevator door opened, and the woman walked in and turned around.
"Jessica?" Li Mo's eyes widened, he didn't expect to meet the old man here, and when did this woman know how to dress up?
"Wow, long time no see, what are you doing here?" Li Mo smiled and said hello.
However, Jessica. Jones looked at him indifferently, ignored him, and directly pressed the elevator switch.
As the elevator door gradually closed, Li Mo's smile gradually stiffened, no matter how he said it, he was a former bed partner, so why did he turn his face and not recognize anyone.
What am I doing wrong?
Li Mo pursed his lips, wanting to catch up but couldn't save face, so he called Matt.
"Jessica? She took a case and went to London to investigate... Nothing happened, she saw you appear on TV and made several jokes in a row..."Li Mo listened, and his face gradually sank.
Something is wrong!
After returning to the guest room, Li Mo immediately connected to the McQueen through nano glasses, and McQueen, hidden in the sea, had long been connected to the earth's network, and easily got Jessica's room number.
After Li Mo opened the window, he jumped into the night, and the flight hovered outside the window of Jessica's room.
The bedroom can be seen through the glass window with half of the curtains drawn. The scene in front of me is very beautiful, on a large bed, three beautiful women in erotic lingerie are grinding dishes with each other, and their eyes are full of confusion.
Jessica, dressed in a dress, stood by like a puppet and stared.
A Caucasian man in a purple suit with oily hair sat on a chair and drank red wine in a sip of wine, occasionally showing a twisted smile.
TMD's perversion!
It must have been the bastard named Kilgrave, and Li Mo was a little annoyed, remembering the helplessness of every time Jessica was awakened by nightmares in the middle of the night.
I didn't expect this guy to get entangled with Jessica again.
Li Mo didn't think much about it, he directly stretched out his right hand, and a vine suddenly stretched out from the void next to Kilgrave, and before he could react, it was strangled into four pieces, and the huge pressure made the red blood spurt all over the room.
The four women in the room woke up at once, and Jessica looked around with horror on her face. The three women on the bed saw the bloody scene in front of them, screamed and ran out, and the occupants of the other rooms in the corridor poked their heads out curiously, and soon someone called the police.
Knock knock, Li Mo suspended in the air and knocked on the window.
Jessica, who was a little frightened and overwhelmed, looked over, she hurriedly ran over and opened the window, "Lee, why are you here, what happened to this TM... Kilgrave..."
"Then let's get out of here." Li Mo grabbed Jessica's waist and flew back to his room.
Draped in a blanket and thinking clearly about the cause and effect, Jessica's thoughts and emotions were a little confused, trembling all over, her eyes were full of tears, and she kept muttering to herself in horror.
Li Mo hugged her tightly and kept comforting: "It's all over, that bastard has been pinched to death by me, you are safe..."
It wasn't until the second half of the night that Jessica fell asleep, but she was still awakened by nightmares from time to time, and Li Mo could only stay with her.
In the dark night, the sound of rain outside the window is getting louder and louder,...
In the next two days, although Jessica was much better, her mood was still a little unstable, and she kept drinking heavily to anesthetize herself, and Li Mo had no choice but to call her sister Tracy.
Tracy, who arrives in a hurry, takes Jessica back to New York for psychotherapy, while Li Mo has to complete a disappearance case for Jessica.
The client was a female professor at New York University named Laurie. A year ago, her husband died, and because of her grief, she was immersed in work, and she had no contact with her daughter Angelina, who was studying in the archaeology department at the time.
About a month ago, she received a text message from her daughter: Mom, I was right!
After that, the female professor called again and prompted her to turn off the phone, and her daughter could not be contacted again.
…
A café in the city of Cambridge.
The layout here is very elegant, with light and dark booths, intricate tablecloths, and flowers everywhere, which has a strong British petty bourgeois atmosphere.
Portraits of scientists and writers and a bookshelf full of books add to the café's bookish atmosphere.
Most of Cambridge's cafes are of this virtue.
It's afternoon class, so there's very little crowd in the café.
Li Mo sat in a quiet corner, drinking coffee and looking at the file that Jessica had left for him in his hand.
The missing Angelina in the photo definitely belongs to the top group of beauties. She has a youthful 19-year-old and a perfectly refined face.
But a few strands of purple hair in front of the short waves, strong smoky makeup, angry red lips, black studded leather jacket, tattered jeans with martin boots, and a black sweatshirt with a middle finger pattern printed on the chest. A rebellious cyberpunk girl alive.
Jessica got information from the police that the missing Angelina and several classmates had traveled to London. As soon as she found out that the young men had come to Cambridge to visit a professor named Robert, she was hypnotized by Kilgrave.
Li Mo wanted to follow this clue to find it, and it happened that astrophysicist Eric Murphysicist was looking for it. Dr. Schavig is also a visiting professor here.
Li Mo remembered that this guy was the first to discover the signs of the overlap of the Nine Realms, so he called in advance and visited them together.
Seeing that it was almost time for class to end, Li Mo turned around and walked out of the café.
The café is not far from King's College Cambridge, and Li Mo enjoys the scenery as he walks.
Cambridge is full of greenery and has an English pastoral style.
Everywhere you can see tall, old Gothic, Tudor buildings. The rough stone pavement and granite façade are rustic and generous.
On the River Cam, small bridges made of wooden block collars connect the greenery on one side and the fairytale old school buildings on the other. On the river, there are many tourists who take artemisia boats, and on a huge rock on the river bank, the words of a famous Chinese poet are engraved: "Gently, I am coming..."
Passing through the towering minaret and Gothic gatehouse at the entrance of King's College, and past the bronze statue of Henry VI in the green space of the atrium, Li Mo met Eric who was waiting in front of the teaching building. Professor Dr. Schavig.
"I'm sorry you didn't come at the right time." Eric. Dr. Shavig was wearing an outdoor suit, his face was anxious, "I was about to go out to investigate, what is there when I come back, you must not believe what I found, oh my God... Hope I'm wrong. ”
With that, Dr. Eric hurried away. Li Mo shrugged his shoulders, it seemed that the Nine Realms Overlap was about to happen, but he didn't know where the specific location of the collected ether particles was.
Simple. Foster had no intention of coming to London at all, the timeline had changed, and it was not known who would be the first to discover the aether particle. Take advantage of this time to find the missing girl first.
Thinking of this, Li Mo turned around and entered the academy building.
He had investigated Professor Robert, a senior professor at King's College, Cambridge, who had a deep understanding of ancient Celtic culture.
In a quaint and elegant office with shelves full of old books, Li Mo met Professor Robert.
It was a man in his 60s, with a typical British face, freckles on the bridge of his nose, gray hair that had thinned out of his head, a brown plaid suit, and a black waistcoat and white shirt. Wearing a delicate red bow tie.
"The children are missing? What sad news. Professor Robert shook his head, "They did come here and asked me some questions. ”
"About what?" Li Mo frowned and asked.
"A strange parchment scroll with inexplicable words written in Old Celtic language." Professor Robert touched his brows and thought for a long time, "I'm old, and my memory is really poor, oh... That's right. ”
The old man suddenly remembered something, turned around and pulled out a thick book from the shelf, and took out a note from it, "Fortunately, I wrote a paragraph when I was translating for them. ”
The old man put on his glasses and read: "I am the beauty of the green land, the white moon among the stars, the mystery of the waters, and the desires of the human heart..."
"That's all?" Li Mo was confused, "What do these words mean?" ”
"Who knows." Professor Robert shook his head, and muttered to himself, "But I heard one of the children talking about the fairy of the lake, is they looking for the legendary sword?" It can't be, those are just myths and legends... But who can be sure that even the god of thunder in Norse mythology has appeared, so what about Celtic mythology..."
"Hey, Professor, what's on that parchment?" Li Mo interrupted the old professor's thoughts.
"What do you say, it's time to take your medicine?" Professor Robert sat down, muttering to himself as he poured out a pill from his arms and swallowed it, "That girl at the head is so beautiful, if I were younger..."
The old man was a little demented, Li Mo shook his head, and just wanted to continue asking, he heard the old man's snoring.
“shit!” Li Mo was a little helpless, it seems that this is all the news that can be obtained here.
But fortunately, it was finally confirmed that Angelina and the others had been here. After Li Mo walked out of King's College, he immediately asked McQueen to call up the nearby camera footage to find out where Angelina and them were.
McQueen soon spotted images of the young men, who had come out of King's College and drove back to London in a rented car.
Li Mo also hailed a taxi and followed the route of the young men back to London, all the way to the southeast of London, on the south bank of the River Thames.
Li Mo frowned, this was the center of life where the Tudor dynasty was at that time, where the prime meridian passed, Greenwich.
Looks like the dark elves are invading here, isn't it?
Li Mo's expression became excited, urging the driver to continue walking down and came to a nearby abandoned factory.
This is it!
Li Mo looked at the somewhat familiar scene nearby, but he didn't expect that because he helped find the missing girl, he actually let him find the place where the aether particles were stored in advance.
Happily sending the driver away, Li Mo hurriedly walked to the depths of the factory, but as soon as he passed a corner, he frowned and quickly hid in the shadows.
There are already people here!
A factory building has obviously been occupied, and dozens of shrewd and strong men are patrolling around vigilantly in civilian clothes, holding dicks under their bulging clothes.
Who is this TM?
Li Mo shook his head and took out a miniature beetle detector produced by McQueen from his arms.
The little beetle quickly flew into the factory, and Li Mo received and watched the image in real time.
Soon, his eyes widened in disbelief: "Isn't this Jin He, why is he here?" ”
