Chapter Forty-Eight: Clams?

Although Sherlock Holmes and Watson are veterans of demon hunting, they don't know much about Shadow London, and the approximate location that can be determined is only the intersection of Rick Road and Belyut Road on the River Thames. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info can only rely on a half-informed knowledge of the enchantment to find the hidden nodes of the Thames. Whether it's the bronze statue of General Horatio Nelson on the riverside road, or a tree on the side of the street that is said to have been planted by Cromwell, these two guys have turned it over, but still found nothing. The frenzied Sherlock Holmes even planned to pry open the floor piece by piece to see if there was any magic circle buried underneath.

"Hell!" Holmes, who had nothing to do, kicked the innocent street lamp on the side of the road, and said viciously: "The demon hunter who built this node must have been an out-and-out miser!

"Could it be that your Empress's little coffers have been investigated by you?" Gu Ran on the side complained: "Not being sent to the gallows for a guy like you is simply the most serious dereliction of duty since the establishment of Scotland Yard!"

"Uh......" Holmes was momentarily speechless.

At this moment, there was a sharp whistling in the sky, and everyone looked up, only to see that in the distance of the sky, a UFO appeared in the dark sky, this thing seemed to be on fire on its body, exuding a blazing red flame, and was flapping its wings in their direction.

"What is that?" Gu Ran asked.

"It's not going to be a good thing for us anyway. Holmes shrugged.

Lin Xi took a step forward, squinted his eyes, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a demon of the Fire Bird Race. And if I'm still not mistaken, if we don't hide now, we should be pressed to the ground by it later. ”

"So where did you come from to be so leisurely!" Watson shouted, "Since you know that you can't fight, don't hide quickly!"

Sherlock Holmes and Gu Ran have never disappointed in the field of escape, and before Watson finished speaking, the two of them turned their heads behind him almost at the same time and slipped away, Lin Xi and Watson didn't even react, and these two shameless people disappeared.

The two men rushed to the door of the nearest house on the side of the street, simply broke the doorknob, kicked the door open, and then slammed into it with a brow on their heads......

“...... I don't read much, can you explain to me what is going on at this time? Gu Ran was full of black lines.

"Actually, I don't read more than you......" Holmes also had a dog's expression on his face.

I saw that in the living room of the house, a humanoid toad wearing black-rimmed glasses was leaning on the sofa, holding a newspaper and looking at them with a confused expression.

"What are you still doing here...... Lin Xi and the others who came after were about to urge them into the house, but they were also stunned when they saw the scene inside the house.

"Clam?" the toad looked very pleasant in its pajamas, carrying a newspaper, with the belt of its pajamas tied to its chest, and a blazing fire burning in the fireplace. However, these uninvited guests who broke into the door without saying hello obviously put it in a state of downtime when it was enjoying itself.

"%&%&$&!@&#^$*^*%$^?" After both sides had stayed for a while, the toad was the first to speak.

Although he was in the UK, Gu Ran still understood what this guy said, which was the magic language that Xi Yue asked him to learn. It seems that the demons all over the world only use one magic language, and they don't want human society to have so many languages.

The words of this thing should be to say, "What are you demons, why are you in my house?", and it seems that they have broken into this demon's house like a group of robbers. This somewhat embarrassed Gu Ran and Lin Xi, who were righteous and orderly, completely forgot their responsibilities as demon hunters. In their minds, demons should be evil and chaotic, but this toad looks like an ordinary resident of a demonic society.

However, Juan Fu and Watson obviously fulfilled their duties as witchers, and the two rushed forward without skin and facelessness, and put the knife on the toad's neck, so frightened that the toad shook off the newspaper in his hand, and shouted tremblingly: "You, you can't do this, you are a bandit." ”

"Eh, when did we refuse to admit that we were robbers?" said Holmes naturally, "you say yes, Watson. ”

After that, he said coldly to the toad: "There is a trouble outside, we want to hide from the limelight here, if you don't want to die, cooperate with us." Otherwise, I have 10,000 ways for you to meet Satan!"

"Actually, I often see his ......"

"Less nonsense!"

The toad kowtows like pounded garlic. Seeing this, everyone immediately found a place to hide, Gu Ran and Lin Xi unfortunately chose the wardrobe next to the fireplace at the same time, the two of them were crowded in the narrow cabinet, and they were out of breath, if it wasn't for the two of them deliberately avoiding it, the two faces would almost stick together.

There's no time to change places now!

"Get out, the soul is faint!, squeeze to death!" Lin Xi scolded in a low voice.

"Obviously, I came first, whether it was choosing this cabinet or squeezing in, it was obviously me first!" Gu Ran replied in a low voice.

"Abominable ......"

The hot breath exhaled by Lin Xi sprayed on the tip of Gu Ran's nose, leaving a mist and itchy touch, just like when he first met her. The air in the narrow cabinet was damp, and Gu Ran was a little dizzy and blushing, so he had to turn his head slightly and look at the door through the gap in the cabinet.

Outside the door, the fiery bird unexpectedly landed where everyone had just been. At this time, Gu Ran was able to peek at its full appearance, this thing has a wingspan of more than ten meters, a slender torso, and a pair of small wings born around the neck. There were no feathers on his body, but he was surrounded by red flames, and from a distance it looked like a burning fireball.

However, Gu Ran didn't think of fire dragons, flying dragons and the like because of its appearance, but thought of another creature - well, chickens.

A slightly curved beak, a fiery red crown, and a mass of unknown objects hanging from the chin...... This girl actually has a chicken head under her domineering and mighty appearance!

The fire bird that landed on the ground turned into a human form smoothly, but it still retained some of the characteristics of its demonic form, which made him look like a birdman.

"Hey, can a demon still turn into a human? It looks like it has a few brushes. Gu Ran complained in a low voice.

"Ignorance!" Lin Xi said, "Most demons will do this, okay? Basically, demons have two forms, demonized and humanized, but I heard that demons who have signed a contract have a third form......"

"Shhhh

......
