Mystery: Starting from Meeting Amon

Chapter 75 Curse
In the morning, when Lewis opened the door of the detective agency and prepared to open for business, Blau was already dressed.

"Lewis, I completed my promotion last night and will be leaving today."

"Congratulations." Lewis nodded. He also noticed changes in Blau. He thought this was the result of the promotion.

Promotion to Destiny Path Sequence Five seems simple, but it is not simple. As long as you meet the right person and find the right opportunity, you can be promoted quickly.

On the contrary, if you don’t meet the right person or find the right opportunity, it will be difficult to get promoted.

"Let us follow the guidance of fate and hope that we will meet again." Blau took off his hat, bowed to Lewis, then turned around and pushed open the door of the detective agency.

Lewis saw something floating out from Brown. He subconsciously stepped on the flying object and sighed silently:
"Even if he is promoted to a winner, he still loses money. Did he really succeed in the promotion? Or was the potion he drank fake?"

Lewis picked up the 5-pound note and put it in his pocket. If Brough had not been in such a hurry to leave, he would have considered paying him a few pounds as a reward for his assistantship during this period.

After Blau's back disappeared in the distance, Lewis boiled some water, made a cup of black tea, and then quietly sat in front of the coffee table to read today's Backlund Daily.

Mr. Azik left last night. He left in a hurry, as if he had something important to deal with.

"Qilingos is dead, shot to death by Duke Negan's bodyguards." Lewis smiled calmly. As expected, the Backlund Daily did not publish the real cause of Qilingos' death. After all, that was too unbelievable.

For ordinary people, this statement is easier to accept and can be widely circulated.

In the afternoon, Lewis was a little depressed as he still hadn't received any business. This made him doubt that all his luck was spent on picking up money.

"I will attend Miss Windsor's dinner party tomorrow night. This will be my first time attending a dinner party in this world. I hope to have a pleasant evening."

Lewis left the detective agency and walked on the bluestone brick road. He suddenly felt a piercing gaze.

"Tsk... someone is observing me? Who could it be? And for what purpose?"

Keeping calm, Lewis left Alter Street and walked away from the city center, while using the characteristics of the "monster" to search for the person who was following him.

The final result was a little unexpected. It seemed that there was only one person following him, and it was not certain whether it was a transcendent:
"I've only been in Backlund for less than two weeks. It's impossible for me to offend too many people in these two weeks. And that Sequence 7 from the Blood Cult? I just saved Mr. Dick. We don't have an enemy. He has no reason to hunt me down."

Lewis walked and stopped as if he was just shopping normally. He would occasionally go to the billiard hall to play a game of billiards, or drink a beer in the bar and chat with those tipsy drinkers.

Finally, he met a pretty street prostitute on the roadside. He chatted with her about life, gave her a sola tip, and persuaded her to find a job and stay away from the decadent life.

It was not until the evening that Lewis finally left the Hilton District. This was the outskirts of the city, and the light from the city roads could not reach here. Only the crimson moonlight brought some light to the earth.

"This kind of scene is most suitable for evil spirits to appear."

Lewis muttered in his heart. He realized that the gaze staring at him had not disappeared, but had always kept a certain distance from him.

Walking into the shadows, Lewis used the power of his cane to blend himself into the shadows, and his figure became less and less obvious.

“I still have two lucky charms left in my hand. With these two lucky charms, I can fight against Sequence Six in a short period of time without being at a disadvantage.

Even if you really can't defeat the enemy, you can use the magical item in your spirituality to trap the enemy for a short period of time, and then escape calmly."

Lewis felt more confident when he thought of this. On the side of the road, a dilapidated Gothic-style building was dyed crimson by the moonlight. The wind blew through the broken windows, bringing a humming sound like a low cry.

Lewis sneaked in here quietly. He used the characteristics of the "machine" to make no sound when he walked.

From above, he saw the man following him, a strong man with a slightly bald head.

Based on the feedback of inspiration, Lewis recognized that the man who was following him was the one who had an affair with Mrs. Joan, and might even be the murderer of Mrs. Joan.

"He's not very strong. I should be able to beat him."

Lewis quietly took off a silver ring from his hand, silently chanted "destiny", and threw it towards the figure of the extraordinary person.

"boom!"

Suddenly, the bald man turned around and fired a shot. The bullet hit the fallen brick, making a dull sound.

After firing the shot, the bald man quickly hid in the shadows, avoiding the lucky charm Lewis dropped.

Lewis quickly pulled out his gun, then hid behind the wall, using the cover of the wall to hide.

“That guy’s intuition is very sharp, probably as good as mine.

He should have discovered my purpose when he was tracking me, and he dared to show up because he was confident that he could defeat me."

Lewis couldn't help but get nervous. The shot just now was very subtle. If a brick hadn't happened to fall from the roof and blocked the bullet, the bullet would have penetrated his left shoulder.

While trying his best to sense the target's location, Lewis also tried to find the other party.

The Sequence Seven of the Abyss Path were not very strong. Apart from the use of weapons, their only remaining combat abilities were some weak curses.

As for the ability to summon demonic projections, it is not easy to use in encounters because it would waste too much time and there is no guarantee of success.

"The Abyss Path is somewhat similar to me. Without the help of magical items, my battles would only be guns, fighting, and a little bit of luck."

As time went on, Lewis found that his left foot was hurting, and it seemed as if he was being pricked by thousands of needles with every step he took.

At the same time, he began to have a headache and couldn't help sneezing.

"Wait, is this the other party's extraordinary ability? He has been cursing me?"

Lewis began to realize that things were not going well. If he couldn't deal with the other party as soon as possible, he might be in trouble today.

No matter what kind of Sequence Seven they come from, they should not be underestimated. They may not be good at frontal combat, but their methods are just as disgusting.

“A magical item that belongs only to Lewis Harvey;
The key to the light hidden in spirituality;
The great power to rewrite the course of fate..."

Not daring to delay any further, Lewis prayed to himself in a low voice. As most of the spiritual energy in his body was drained away, the magical item was successfully activated.
