Chapter 96: 80 pounds reward

In the midst of the crowd, Elena suddenly sensed something wrong, and she trembled as she followed her companions to push and shove all the way outside the cemetery.

Probably due to the curse, she watched her classmates trip over the scattered bones, and she herself accidentally fell in front of a tombstone with a grinning portrait of the deceased and a scalp-tingling epitaph:

"Why sleep for a long time before you die, you will sleep forever after death!"

It was the first time Elena had seen such a scene, and she looked down at the tombstone, her heart as if it were clutched by something.

"Knock knock!"

The sound of the coffin board being knocked right below her body was like a drumstick hitting her body, and every time it was struck, it was like a drumstick hitting her heart, and she couldn't help but want to vomit.

She lay back, her eyes rolling abruptly, and she passed out, accompanied by a fishy smell.

Lewis watched the group of unfortunate boys and girls stumble out of the cemetery, and finally did not dare to look into the cemetery, and dispersed.

He wrapped the Azk bronze whistle with his spirit again, and the corpse's reaction came to an abrupt end, and the neat knocking of the coffin board disappeared as well.

After today's malicious intimidation, in a short period of time, this group of unlucky eggs should never return to Grimm Cemetery.

"It's a little small, but it can scare pee."

Lewis came up to Elena, helped the girl out of the cemetery, and hired a night carriage to throw her on the carriage seat.

It took about ten minutes for the carriage to finally return to the home of the real estate developer, Wilbur, and Lewis rang the doorbell.

After a few minutes, the butler in the tuxedo uniform opened the door, and he glanced at the girl Lewis was holding on, and exclaimed, "Miss Elena, why is she here?" ”

"You can take a look in her room and you'll understand." Lewis calmly explained, "I think I've found the cause of Miss Elena's anomaly, and if Mr. Wilbur is still awake, I'd like to go and deliver the task now." ”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wilbur has already slept, I'll arrange a bedroom for you, please wait until tomorrow."

The butler took Elena from Lewis and sent her back to the room.

Lewis found a room that was not formal under the arrangement of the servant, and rested temporarily, and the gorgeous bedding smelled of rose essential oil, which was very exquisite.

"I also saw two unlucky people today, unlucky people who were haunted by resentful spirits, they are really miserable, but I can't find the door to do the exorcism activity, that will expose my own abnormality."

……

In the morning, Lewis received a notice from the servant, and he dressed up in his formal attire and came to the living room to meet the real estate agent Wilbur.

The round gentleman was still sitting in the rocking chair, as if he didn't want his feet to touch the ground.

"You may be seated." Mr. Wilbur nodded.

Lewis sat aside, he quietly examined the round gentleman, and said:

"I think I've found Miss Elena's anomaly."

As Lewis glanced at the waiters in the living room, Wilbur, the real estate merchant, sent the waiters away, saying:

"Now that you can talk about the situation, I hope to hear really useful information."

"Of course." Lewis smiled indifferently and described in detail what he had seen at Grimm's Cemetery the previous night, including the boys and girls who had stolen the bodies and danced strange dances.

Finally, he also made a point of highlighting the bald adult male who danced with young boys and girls.

"Mr. Wilbur, this is the truth of Miss Elena's affairs, and I feel that the fruits of my labour are worthy of the twenty pounds." Finally, Lewis took a sip of black tea and added lightly.

Wilbur's face became more and more ugly, and the theft of a corpse without permission was a crime, and according to the laws of the kingdom, the circumstances were serious and punishable by about ten years in prison.

If this matter spreads, not only Elena's life will be ruined, but even his reputation will suffer, and a real estate developer with a bad reputation will inevitably mean losing his wealth.

"No!" Wilbur squeezed out a smile and said, "Mr. Lewis, I admire your ability to handle cases, and the reward of 80 pounds is the reward you deserve." ”

Am I just that like a detective who likes to talk around?

Lewis was a little helpless, but he still stood up and saluted: "Mr. Wilbur, I admire your generosity, and I hope that Miss Elena will soon be able to come out of the shadow of being threatened." ”

Elena was threatened? This detective is so smart, like my business partners, their ability to tell the real from the fake depends only on whether the matter is good for them.

"Mr. Detective, this is what you deserve, I never expected to receive results in just one day, your efforts are worth my money."

The two looked at each other and smiled, reading the meaning of each other's words.

With £80 in cash, Lewis said goodbye to the estate agent Wilbur and got into the horse-drawn tram bound for the Hilton borough.

……

Towards noon, Elena woke up from her large bed of velvet and mosquito nets, and she looked at her surroundings in surprise and shook herself out of her fright.

Recalling the sound of the corpse rising from the ground last night and the coffin board under the tombstone being slammed, her body trembled slightly.

"I'm never going to participate in this kind of ritual again, it's terrible." Elena drank some water, and all she remembered was that she was clutched by the palm of a dead man's hand sticking out of the ground.

At that moment, she understood that beyond the scope of what the naked eye could see, there really was a real, but inperceptible world.

It may be the world where the dead live, and what they do to resurrect the dead is an act that provokes the Grim Reaper.

"I don't know what happened to me, did the dead at Grimm Cemetery come out of their coffins and look for those of us who disturbed the dead's rest."

Not knowing what had happened to her after she had fainted, and even less what had happened to the rest of the people, she called the butler and asked:

"How did I get back last night? I mean...... When I went to bed last night, was there anything unusual? Suddenly remembering that she had snuck out last night, Elena hurriedly excused herself.

The butler helped Elena prepare the clothes she was going to wear today, and explained truthfully: "You passed out last night, and it was Mr. Detective who sent you back. ”

Of course, he omitted the embarrassing scene of Elena, which would be a shame for a lady's life if he said it.

Elena Huo Ran thought of the uniformed Mr. Detective, and her heart felt like she was trembling strongly.

"It's him! He brought me out of the cemetery, from the encirclement of the dead, from the curse of death......

He's really an amazing, powerful detective, at least stronger than my teacher! ”

"I'm going out and meeting the detective in a minute." Elena got dressed, tidied up, and said.
