Toast, fried eggs, sausages, freshly ground coffee...
Although they are all simple things and the ingredients can only be said to be fresh, Yang Kai eats them very deliciously.
At Lu Li's request, the puppies surrounding the door were also able to enjoy the delicious food.
"This place is so much like London in the Victorian era. Of course, I have never been there. I have only seen it in documentaries."
His eyes fell on Lu Li.
After all, he had previously said that he knew Conan Doyle, the author of Sherlock Holmes.
While watching, Lu Li sighed: "Two times, I'm already very familiar."
Different from his first visit, when he performed a mission in the foggy world for the second time, he really spent a not-so-brief time.
As Yang Kai said, there are many similarities with the Victorian era, such as:
The filial piety of the city.
Also known as, noise.
Similar to the watchmen in the ancient East, there is a profession called watchmen here. Every half hour, they will patrol the streets and shout to ensure that everyone who is interested can know the time in time.
However, they were able to accurately call out the weather conditions for the next two hours, which surprised Lu Li. After all, there were no weather satellites at the moment. If the forecast could be error-free, it would really mean something.
Added to this was the constant noise of church bells, each in hundreds of tunes.
Unfortunately, it is not faith in Christ.
On the way here, Lu Li saw a church temple. It was completely dark and exuded a divine aura, which made people think of... his mother?
To be more precise, it should be tranquility, which extends the previous feeling.
That is probably what the Knights said, the Church of the Dark Goddess responsible for investigating the large disembowelled eucalyptus.
"There are still a lot of differences."
"The reason why you feel this way is probably because when civilization develops to a certain level, such phenomena will appear."
Yang Kai could not refute or agree with Lu Li's remarks, because the original owner was a homebody and rarely went out to interact with other things. From his own observation in this short period of time, he felt that it was very similar to the foggy city during the reign of Queen Victoria.
After all, even the iconic Ripper has one!
While the two were communicating.
boom!
A muffled sound came from the next table.
The middle-aged man who was eating silently slipped from his seat, as if he had drunk too much, and kept moving his hands in front of his eyes, as if swimming, or resisting the approach of others.
"Help me, my belly!"
"my stomach!"
While begging for help and waving his arms, other diners who gathered around felt confused.
Just as Lu Li was about to move closer, the man let out a roar, like a beast with a severely injured throat. Then a trace of saliva flowed from his mouth, his eyes widened, and he lost the strength to struggle.
"Food is poisonous!"
"Quickly, go to the church and get treatment."
The gentlemen who had not yet given the money fled one after another.
A guest was eating quietly, and suddenly he looked like this. Before he died, he shouted:
my stomach.
If Lu Li hadn't been able to identify these and had a clear understanding of his own status due to the werewolf's special skills, he would have thought the same thing.
at the same time.
Yang Kai looked at the seniors, as if he was worried that they were also poisoned, but since he had no faith, which church should he go to for treatment?
Moreover, Lu Li, who seems to be omnipotent, did not show his tact and provide timely warning in this matter, which can't help but make people feel disappointed...
"Don't think too much, the food is not poisonous."
"Really?"
An exclamation came from the side. Before Yang Kai could speak, an old woman wearing a headscarf rushed over, grabbed Lu Li's hand tightly, and begged:
"Please be sure to testify for me."
"The knights will come to investigate in a while, and maybe the attendants from the nearby temple."
Knights=Police Department√
Temple = Paranormal Research Institute?
Lu Li thought for a moment and thought that the latter should not be described in this way. They themselves were representatives of supernatural powers, and they might not be able to talk about research.
For some purpose, perhaps due to the power of faith, these groups will help solve supernatural events and take the initiative to maintain the stable lives of ordinary people.
The above are Lu Li's guesses based on his own experience. Because Yang Kai has just traveled through time and is still shrouded in fog, don't expect to be able to provide any valuable information.
There is no doubt about the speed of police dispatch in this era.
A little less than a quarter of an hour?
Anyway, Yang Kai only said a few words when the sound of horse hooves came from outside, and four strong men wearing ancient armor and stomach bumped in.
Unfortunately, there is no way to escape the law of violent law enforcement. The old woman was controlled immediately, followed by the junior student whose combat effectiveness was negligible.
Secondly... there is no second place.
Peng! Peng!
The two guys who tried to get closer were instantly knocked to the ground by Lu Li. Because the punch was too fast, no one could see the relevant action clearly.
Lu Li did not rashly intervene in the investigation of the dismemberment incident at night, but this did not mean that he was afraid of trouble and allowed himself to be pinned to the ground by two weak people and undergo interrogation from above.
"He and I were just guests passing by for dinner and had no intention of being involved in this emergency."
Looking at Lu Li, who seemed to have never moved, and his two companions who were paralyzed on the ground and unable to get up, the two people who had already controlled the target silently released their hands.
The moment he regained his freedom, Yang Kai immediately approached Lu Li and retracted his previous thoughts.
This senior is really good at fighting...
How fast does it take to achieve the effect just now? The man still maintained the posture of holding the wolf-headed cane, but the two knights had flown out upside down.
"Sorry, sir."
A pair of green eyes looked over:
"I apologize for my companion's rude behavior."
In response, Lu Li just nodded and looked at the corpse on the ground, indicating that they could investigate.
Because this incident happened too hastily and there was not much testimony to provide, the investigation quickly got on track:
Seal the kitchen and check the ingredients.
Find out the identity of the deceased.
Wait for the medical examiner to arrive.
During this period, those diners came back again and again, so don’t expect them to give you money for the meal, even if the church clergy of their respective faiths gave a clear answer:
There is no risk of poisoning.
The reason why I came back now is to find out what happened.
"How about we go out and avoid it first?"
"If you can't bear it, you can leave for a while."
After hearing what Lu Li said, Yang Kai felt that he should not be underestimated and decided to stay.
"When I cut him open, something might fall out, and someone would have to help me then."
"When the time comes, pull this tissue back."
The forensic doctor said while drawing lines on the body:
"Then the sternum will be exposed. Hold this side and continue to pull... When I use the knife again, I have to pull the meat slowly and evenly..."
Correct
The knights retreated one after another, feeling that it was too bloody, and their expressions were full of resistance.
Only Lu Li was interested.
When he first played the role, he served as Duke's assistant. Later, in anatomy classes, he frequently came into contact with dead bodies and saw various creatures from different races.
