Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Helper
By the time the bandmate and his mother asked RenΓ©, the manager of the Breeze Ballroom, to leave, the drums were beating again, and a new round of twerking began.
Lumian glanced sideways at Jana, who was standing beside him, and casually chatted:
"I thought you'd go for a few comforts, after all, you know him and often work with their band."
Jana, who was wearing a long red dress studded with sequins and a large area of skin on her bare chest, pursed her lips and said with a calm expression:
"In that situation just now, what he needed was not comfort, but venting, and any comfort was a sword stabbing at him for him."
Lumian looked Janna up and down for a few seconds:
"So knowing? How can I feel like I've experienced it myself.
Janena looked down at her toes and smiled:
"I was in a similar state a few years ago when my father died.
"Then, one day, before dawn, my mother took me to the roof of the apartment and accompanied me until the sun rose.
I saw the distance light up little by little, I saw the sky gradually turn from black to deep blue, and I saw the clouds dyed bright gold, and other colors.
"At that moment, she told me that the darkness would eventually pass, the sun would rise, and the light would surely shine on the earth.
"When he gets back into the band, I'll find an opportunity to say something like that to him."
Lumi listened quietly and sighed: "You have a good mother."
"Yes." Jane accepted the compliment with some pride.
Lumian turned to laugh and said:
"I just said so much, and I didn't even bring a word of swearing, unlike you."
And it seems to be quite literate.
"! In your heart, I'm the kind of person who is low-quality and swears constantly? Janna cursed hatefully and walked to the break room, ready for the next song.
Lumian sat back at the bar and thought about something else:
He's going to go to psychotherapy tomorrow afternoon, and Louis. Lund is likely to be present in every time slot on Sunday.
When the time comes, what if you miss it?
Lumian's first instinct was to write to Ms. "The Magician" and ask her to ask her psychiatrist, Ms. Susie, if she could postpone the treatment for a day, but she felt that her condition was a little unstable in the past two days, and if she didn't return to the clinic in time, she might be tracking Louis in the future. Lund suffered a big loss on this line.
You know, if Lady Pualis is not exactly equal to "Lady of the Night", it is not something that Lumian can confront head-on now, and his main purpose is to find this survivor of Cordu Village and have a friendly chat with her.
There was not much hatred for Lady Lumian of Pualis, although she also believed in evil gods and did some things in the village of Cordu, but for now, it seems that she was forced to leave some time before the murderer ritual that caused the disaster.
What other people believe, Lumian doesn't care, and he doesn't plan to care.
Therefore, if he is in an unstable state, and does something excessive, exacerbates the conflict with Madame Poalis, and becomes her enemy, then the matter will become extremely troublesome, and may even cost him his life.
As for the conflict with the Stinger Gang, the problem of "Lady Moon" is not the same as the matter of "Lady Night".
After thinking about it for a while, Lumian planned to find a helper to guard Louis and Lund in his place, and follow him to find his residence in Trier.
"If you don't have extraordinary ability, you can't do it at all.
"There are two options at the moment, one is the intelligence monger Anthony. Red, the extraordinary person in his suspected "psychiatrist" pathway, has enough tracking skills, and he has accepted my commission, taken my deposit, and knows that I am going to find Louis. Lund, tracking the other party and determining their whereabouts is also included in the task, it's really not good, I'll add some more money.
"The second is Franca, she and Aurore belong to the same curly baboon research society, know my true identity, show a certain amount of care, and be trustworthy to a certain extent, well, she still owes me a favor, and her strength is enough to follow Luis. Lund, who could even control him halfway......" Lumian stood up, went up to the bedroom on the second floor, and left the Breeze Ballroom through the window.
Golden Rooster Hotel, outside room 305. Lumian knocked on the wooden door.
"Please come in." Anthony. Rhett's words came out with an accent from the west coast of the sea.
This answer was accompanied by a slow opening of the door to the back.
Once again, the intelligence monger appeared in front of Lumien.
The oil on his face seemed to have just been cleaned up, and the whole person looked more and more honest.
At this time, he was wearing a gray-blue worker's uniform, as if he had spent the whole day in the market area and the south side of the botanical garden.
"I saw the note you left." Anthony. Red touched the yellowish hairline that had receded a lot, "I've been staring at Market Boulevard. β
Lumian did not show that indescribable uneasiness, glanced left and right, and said bluntly:
"I have something else to do tomorrow from half past two to five o'clock in the afternoon, if you find the target during this time period, don't use it to notify me, follow it down, lock down where he lives."
Anthony. Red stared at Lumian with dark brown eyes for a few seconds:
"Okay."
He didn't mention the money, and Lumien was too happy not to talk about it.
No. 3 White Coat Street is a relatively new condominium with a beige building with curved dynamics, numerous concave walls, and various statues, angels, animals, celebrities, legendary objects, large windows, pilasters, cartouches, etc.
Lumian stood in front of room 601 and rang the doorbell.
The sound of a jingle bell made Franka open the dark red door.
Her long, flaxen-colored hair was draped naturally and fluffy, and she wore a knee-length light silk nightgown with a large neckline and white flowers.
Seeing that the other party looked defenseless and didn't even wear underwear, Lumian couldn't let his eyes wander.
Franca, who seemed to know who the visitor was before opening the door, asked with a smile:
"Ask for occult knowledge?
"After talking about it for so long, I finally came to the door."
"No, one more thing." Lumian gestured inside the room and motioned to go inside.
Franka turned and walked to the couch area.
Lumian followed closely behind, habitually sweeping around.
This is an apartment with two bedrooms, a bathroom, a living room, and a kitchen, and the sofa, coffee table, dining table, chairs, cabinets and various furnishings in the living room are either beige, or iron black, or silver white, or light gray, with fewer colors and no showy, which not only looks simple and clean, but also has a concise and cold texture, which is completely different from the living room style of most families at present.
Lumian sat down on the couch and watched Franca's legs curl up on the easy chair diagonally opposite, revealing her unusually beautiful curves.
"What's the matter?" Franka asked. Lumian pointed at her:
"Aren't you thinking about a change of clothes?"
Franka looked down at her nightdress and suddenly realized:
"It may be that you know what gender I originally was, and when I stay with you, I always have the illusion that I am still a man and forget to pay attention to these details."
She immediately smiled, and instead of changing her clothes, she changed her sitting posture and looked more and more seductive.
After a few seconds, she even left her easy chair and sat directly next to Lumien.
Feeling Lumian's puzzled eyes, she smiled and said, "Anyway, you don't look at it, why should I change it?" β
She struck an unabashedly teasing post.
"Ma'am, you're having a bad taste." Lumian sighed.
Franka smiled and said:
"Life is already hard, you have to find some fun on your own.
"I'm okay, the group of people in the research group have no hope for the future, and they have set up a group called 'April Fool's Day', your sister should have mentioned it, right? β
"I mentioned it." Lumian had seen it in Aurore's witchcraft notes.
Without further explanation, Franka looked at Lumian with lake-colored eyes, waiting for him to explain.
Lumian spoke fairly directly, "I'd like to ask you for a favor. β
"Huh?" Franka was very cooperative, questioning.
Lumian pondered the words and said:
"Now that you've seen my wanted warrant, you should know about it.
"I received information that one of them was called Louis. Lund's man will be on Market Avenue tomorrow, and he has a close relationship with the big man behind the Stinger Gang.
"I want to catch him and find out the truth about the disaster in the village of Koldu, but I have important things to do tomorrow afternoon, and I can't personally guard him, I hope you can help me, if he appears, follow him, determine his whereabouts, and if you are sure, you can also arrest him for me." He previously possessed the extraordinary power equivalent of Sequence 8 and was supposed to be the 'Gardener', which is now unclear. "After taking that mirror, didn't you say that you would give me some compensation, this is."
Slightly annoyed, Franka said:
"It's related to the death of the 'Muggle', I'm sure I'm going to help, how can it be compensated?"
"Tracking doesn't count, hands-on counting?" Lumian tried to suggest.
Franka saw that there was still a lot of politeness and detachment in his bones, and he didn't insist, nodded and said:
"Okay."
She immediately expressed curiosity:
"There's nothing better than grabbing that, that one called Louis. Are people in Lund more important?
"I thought you'd care more about the truth about the village of Cordu." Lumian thought for a moment and said calmly:
"After the disaster in the village of Koldu, I developed certain psychological problems and am currently receiving regular treatment. I was afraid that if I didn't have a follow-up in time, I would lose control of my emotions and let my efforts to find the truth be undermined. β
Franka nodded a little sympathetically, indicating that it was understandable.
She offered to propose:
"Do you need me to help you find a real psychiatrist, the kind with extraordinary abilities?"
"That's my psychiatrist." Lumian didn't hide it. Thinking that the "Muggle" brother had other occult gatherings, Franka didn't ask.
Lumien also mentions the characteristics of "villains" and "gardeners", as well as Anthony Lumian. Rhett's presence and describes his appearance so that Franca doesn't mistake him for Louis. Lund's helper, unnecessary conflicts.
After explaining the matter, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"You're all here, why don't you ask for occult knowledge by the way?" Franka laughed and stood up.
"Louis. Lund is also likely to be seen tonight. "Lumien just wants to get back to the Breeze Ballroom as soon as possible.
At that moment, he and Franka looked at the door at the same time. There was the sound of light footsteps coming down the stairs, stopping there.
Franka looked at the cat's eyes from a distance, and her expression suddenly became strange.
She suppressed her voice and said to Lumien:
"Jana!
Some people died, but not completely......
