Mystery: Starting from Meeting Amon

Chapter 50 Psychic
Lewis ran away. Although it was not convenient for the other party to use guns in a crowded place, it was also not convenient for him to use his supernatural powers.

At present, he still doesn’t understand whether the other party is a superhuman. If the other party is really a superhuman, then today’s battle is bound to not be easy.

"Destiny!" Lewis used a lucky charm while running. He quickly bent down, picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the other party, then continued running.

"No!"

Suddenly, Lewis heard a roar from the other party. He turned around and saw that the pursuer was no longer on the road. There were only pedestrians and an unsealed sewer entrance on the road.

"What's going on? Is this luck?" Lewis spread his hands and left the block with some boredom. The fighting method of the Destiny Path is indeed unique. The opponent always makes mistakes unconsciously, or even disappears casually.

Of course, the disappearance of the gunman did no harm to Lewis. It saved him time to take action and did not put his identity at risk of being exposed.

What's more, he didn't know whether the other party had accomplices. If this could solve the problem, it would be great.

As we got farther away from the Eros Center, the number of pedestrians on the street became fewer and fewer. Only the sparse gas lamps on the roadside were still on, making the street look particularly deserted.

Lewis' inspiration was suddenly triggered. He looked behind him and saw a stray dog ​​holding a wallet in its mouth, looking at him not far away. The dog's eyes reflected the crimson moonlight.

Seeing the traces of banknotes sticking out of the wallet, Lewis had an idea and he whistled.

"Woof..." The dirty hound gave a vigilant bark, and as it opened its mouth, the wallet fell to the ground.

Lewis walked over and picked up the wallet, but the stray dog ​​had already run away with its tail between its legs, barking in alarm as it ran.

Opening the wallet, Lewis saw two ten-pound notes and some change inside, as well as a crumpled full-category gun certificate.

"This should be the wallet of the gunman. Being able to pick up this money should be a gift from fate after using the lucky charm just now?" Thinking of this, Lewis tapped his chest four times, praised the goddess, took the money, and threw the wallet to the stray dog ​​again.

……

In a sewer not far from the Eros Center, a sturdy middle-aged man was looking at the sewer exit above his head and fell into deep thought. The exit was just three meters above his head, but due to lack of climbing equipment, he could not get out.

"Damn it! I don't know which idiot threw a stone, and I got hit when I jumped over the well." The middle-aged man could only choose to move forward and hope to find another exit.

After walking for about ten minutes, the middle-aged man saw many green herbs in the sewer, which were obviously cultivated by someone.

This slight change gave him confidence and made him believe that there must be another exit nearby. He continued to move forward and finally saw a ray of crimson moonlight shining down in the distance.

The middle-aged man hurried towards the moonlight. He noticed the stairs leading to the ground, but did not notice the scarlet eyes opened in the darkness.

……

After taking the money and watching his wallet being taken away by the stray dog, Lewis smiled with relief. This way, his fight with the gunman would not leave any traces.

As he walked back to the Ort Street Detective Agency, Lewis suddenly saw a scene from the future: just as he opened the door of the detective agency and was about to walk in, a bullet suddenly flew out from the shadow behind him on the right.

Lewis remained calm, and just as the door of the detective agency was about to open, he decisively rolled into the house.

Suddenly, a very low gunshot was heard, and the bullet hit the place where Lewis had stood before and was embedded in the ground.

Obviously, the shooter must have installed something like a silencer on the muzzle of the gun, which made the gunshot not obvious. Lewis hid in the corner, trying to think about today's situation and who wanted to kill him.

It was obvious that the people chasing him had nothing to do with Cherry. If the gang chasing Cherry wanted to kill him, the middle-aged man would have drawn his gun in front of the Eros Center.

Of course, it is also possible that the gang is not strong enough and dare not act openly.

"Damn it!"

Just as Lewis was hesitating, a thin man in a black shirt rushed into the detective agency. He had a machete in his hand, the muscles on his arms were bulging, and the veins under the skin could even be seen.

"Destiny!" Lewis used a spell and rolled to the side, avoiding the attack of the machete.

The man in the black shirt immediately changed the horizontal chop to a vertical chop and chopped towards Lewis' waist.

Lewis stepped forward, grabbed the opponent's wrist while the machete was passing, and then hit the opponent's Adam's apple with his elbow.

Although he moved quickly enough, his clothes were still torn.

The man in black groaned, and with a strong flick of his left hand, a dagger fell from his sleeve into his palm. With the sudden force of his left hand, the dagger shot out from a very close position and stabbed Lewis' head.

Lewis quickly rolled backwards and just managed to avoid the dagger. Fortunately, the dagger hit the wall and bounced back, landing right in his hand.

With the tool at his disposal, Lewis suddenly exerted force and stabbed the dagger hard into the opponent's throat.

The man in black's eyes swelled with bloodshot. He tried to take a deep breath, but could only make "ho ho" sounds, and finally fell to the ground.

The intense battle made Lewis' nerves tense to the extreme. It was not until the opponent finally fell that he thought about the follow-up matters.

Now, there are only three options before him: one is to call the police, another is to destroy the body, and the last one is to flee for fear of crime.

Of course, he has to wait until after the psychic communication to decide what to do. Only after confirming the other party's identity can he make a more reasonable choice.

Lewis prepared candles, essential oils and holy night powder, set up the altar and prayed to the goddess of night.

It was not easy to complete this ceremony, but fortunately Lewis had already mastered a lot of ritual magic, which made it so smooth.

“I pray for the strength of the night;
I pray for the power of crimson;

I pray for the favor of the goddess;

I pray that you will allow me to communicate with the spirits of the dead within the altar."

……

As the spell was recited, Lewis suddenly felt the majestic, hidden power coming, and his eyes turned completely black.

Then, Lewis saw a transparent, illusory figure floating out from the corpse.
