Chapter 52: The Living Corpse

Sitting anxiously at the window all morning, Lewis did not meet anyone to inquire about last night's battle, and thought that last night's situation had not attracted anyone's attention.

At the same time, however, Lewis did not receive any commissions for detectives.

"It's a lot of competition to be a detective in Beckland." Lewis sighed, when he was in Tingen, his only rival was Detective Bernie, and even if he didn't advertise it, he could always wait for some customers to come to his door.

In the afternoon, Lewis closed the door of the detective agency and went to the newspaper office of the Tasok Daily, which was not far away.

Walking into the newspaper office, you can smell the smell of ink, and the huge, bloated printer is constantly working, making a deafening noise.

Newspapers are born in such an environment, and then the workers organize them and prepare them for publication.

Lewis found a more secluded room, he pushed open the door, and several ladies sat in the cubicles, their hands moving.

Lewis found a window for advertising cooperation, leaned down and said, "I want to register an ad in the Tasok Evening News for a month." ”

The most influential newspaper in Beckland was naturally the Beckland Daily, but this daily newspaper was distributed throughout the kingdom of Rune, and the advertising price was quite expensive, and it was generally only used by the big companies.

Although the Tasok newspaper has less influence and only faces the inside of Beckland, the price is also relatively cheaper.

"Two pounds and six souls." Said the lady in charge of the advertising space.

Lewis pulled the money out of his pocket, and in distress paid two pounds and six soles, which he had prepared for the advertisement of the detective agency, and by the evening he would be able to see it in the evening newspaper of Tassock.

……

The next morning, when it was just dawning.

Lewis woke up from his sleep naturally, washed up briefly, changed into his gray-blue workman's uniform and went out.

After three successive carriage rides, costing a sule and eightpence, Lewis finally arrived in the area of Beckland Bridge.

He got out of the car in a less crowded place, and then made several circles before arriving at the Brave Bar before half-past eight.

When you enter the bar, you can see a cold scene.

The bartender, who was supposed to be at the counter, was not there at all, and the tables and chairs were messily arranged, as if the maid hadn't had time to clean it up.

Lewis sat at the counter for a while, and waited for about half an hour before the bartender arrived late and stood in front of the bar.

"I'm looking for Caspers. Kanlinin. Lewis said bluntly that his goal for today is clear, and that is to attend today's gathering.

"You may be able to find him in billiard room two, but Mr. Caspers will probably be here in an hour." The bartender replied nonchalantly as he wiped his wooden glass.

Lewis frowned, and said okay, come early?

But he also needed Mr. Caspers as a guide, and this was to be a test, and there was nothing to complain about.

The morning bar was maddeningly quiet, and Lewis asked for a South Wie beer and drank it as he made his way to billiard room two, where he pushed open the door and saw a few people playing.

If you look closely, the movements of those people are quite numb, like several corpses capable of moving.

Among these numb people, only one man in a white shirt and black vest was noticeably different, with a club in his hand, glanced at Lewis and frowned.

Lewis hurriedly blinked his right eyelid three times in a row to turn on his vision, and in the state of vision, he saw that the aura of these players was dark black, except for the man in the white shirt and black vest.

"The players are all living corpses, so the only living person should be Marić of the prisoner sequence, and now he should be the sixth sequence." Lewiston thought of Miss Sharon, and now Miss Sharon should be in Sequence Five, even in Beckland, she can be regarded as a transcendent of a considerable level.

If Miss Sharon could be invited, maybe it would be a little easier for him to get the seal 0-08.

Just as Lewis looked around and tried to find Miss Sharon, the living corpse holding the club next to Marić suddenly lifted the club and aimed it at Marić's head......

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the club in the living corpse's hand smashed on Marić's head, breaking it directly.

Marić turned his head and looked at the living corpse in amazement, and behind Marić, another corpse picked up a billiard ball......

"Tsk...... If I don't do anything, Marić won't be killed by the living corpse he raised, right? Seeing that the situation was not good, Lewis hurriedly wrapped the Azk bronze whistle with spirituality.

The Azik Bronze Whistle is related to Mr. Azik in the Death Pathway, which gives it some supernatural powers that can affect necromantic creatures.

Provided, of course, that these necromantic creatures have not been requiemed by the priest.

As Lewis wrapped the Azk Bronze Whistle with his spirit, the living corpses in the room fell silent, and Marić glanced at the living corpse that had picked up the white billiard ball and was about to smash it, his eyes full of puzzlement.

"Mr. Marić, I need to hire a bodyguard." Lewis glanced at the room again, but there seemed to be only one living person in the room, and Miss Sharon was probably not there, or she didn't want to be discovered.

"Bodyguards?" Marić snatched the white ball from the hands of the living corpse, then sat aside and wiped the cue with chocolate powder, and said, "You want me to be your bodyguard?" My prices are not cheap. ”

Looking at the other party's confident appearance, Lewis was a little embarrassed, wondering if he would be kicked out of the room by the angry Marich if he said "you are too weak" now.

However, this is the case, if he wants to play the idea of the seal 0-08, he needs a more powerful assistant, and Marić really can't see enough.

"Actually, it's a bit difficult." Lewis thought for a moment and said truthfully: "This matter may involve a demigod ......"

"Demigods?" Marić looked at Lewis suddenly, and the club in his hand fell to the ground, and the original breezy image disappeared in an instant.

"You can go, I won't be an enemy of a demigod." Marić directly asked the living corpse to drive Lewis out of the room, and after locking the door, he trembled and picked up the club.

No matter how much you try to hide it, I know you're terrified...... Lewis complained inwardly.

Perhaps, this matter can only be done by asking Mr. Azik for help, and I don't know how much memory Mr. Azik has recovered so far, and to what extent his strength has recovered.

Of course, he can also wait for Klein to hunt down Ince. Zangwill, but it's not a good idea.

At that time, the goddess of the night and the god would also be involved, and he didn't believe that taking the two gods would help him, after all, Crane was more useful.
