Mystery: Starting from Meeting Amon

Chapter 99 You Understand
Lewis had already made a plan. The underground building that he was about to explore was densely populated with snakes, and Miss Sharon's ability could effectively eliminate these snakes.

Of course, if he just wanted to get rid of these snakes, he had many ways to do it without revealing any of his own secrets.

The reason for bringing Miss Sharon along is, firstly, to use Miss Sharon's status to make the Red Angel realize that he is not a simple person; secondly, to use the Red Angel's status to make Miss Sharon feel that she is capable of dealing with a Sequence 4 demigod.

After getting off the carriage at the Backlund Bridge area, Lewis went to greet the street girls and then stopped to think. It took him more than half an hour to reach the Brave Bar.

He felt a little nervous, but appeared to be very calm on the surface. Going to see the Red Angel was a rather risky thing to do, but fortunately the Red Angel was still tied up underground.

As soon as he walked into the bar, Lewis quickly confirmed that Maric and the zombies were in billiard room No. 2 because of the noisy noise coming from there.

Following the sound, Lewis pushed open the door of billiard room No. 2. He saw Maric being ridden on the face by a zombie, and quickly wrapped Azik's copper whistle with his spiritual power and silently apologized to the other party.

After closing the door, Lewis said calmly: “I’m looking for Miss Sharon. I have a simple commission to ask her.”

"You're the lunatic again? You want to take advantage of a demigod. I really don't know what you're thinking." Maric wiped the blue blood from the corner of his mouth and said dissatisfiedly.

"It's nothing to target a demigod. As long as the reward is appropriate and the risk is within an acceptable range, we can definitely consider the Medici Ghost, who is comparable to a High-Sequence Powerhouse and the former King of Angels."

Lewis did not argue. He saw Miss Sharon slowly walk out of the wall, lifting her skirt and bowing slightly.

“Ms. Sharon, I want to explore a construction area, which requires your strength.” Lewis did not take the initiative to reveal more specific information.

"Four hundred pounds," Sharon said simply.

"No problem." Lewis quickly took out his wallet. Four hundred pounds was indeed not a small amount of money. Even though he always picked up money, the total amount of money he picked up was only a little over one hundred pounds.

After almost spending all his family savings, Lewis finally managed to scrape together 400 pounds, which he gave to Maric with a heavy heart.

"You are such a lunatic. I have seen a freak similar to you. He is only a Sequence Eight, but he provoked a Sequence Five." Maric took the money with great dissatisfaction and said in a cold voice.

Lewis smiled calmly. If he guessed correctly, the freak was Klein. Judging from the time, Klein should also come to the party.

"Life always needs some excitement to be interesting, doesn't it?" Lewis took off his hat and bowed to Miss Sharon, made an appointment to meet in the Hilton area tomorrow morning, and left.

……

In the early morning sunshine, Lewis sat in a rented carriage and read today's edition of the Backlund Daily. He felt a chill coming over him.

Looking up, Miss Sharon's figure gradually appeared in the carriage. She got off the carriage and sat opposite Lewis.

"Details."

Miss Sharon is so quiet...

Lewis folded the newspaper and put it in his pocket, then explained:

"The area we are going to explore this time is a house left behind by a viscount. There is a large building area under the house, which is suspected to be a Fourth Epoch building. There is a powerful evil spirit bound there." Lewis explained while looking at Miss Sharon's expression, but unfortunately he could not see any emotion on her face.

After a pause, Sharon asked, "Are you sure?"

"We are just confirming the state of the evil spirit and seeing if we can get any benefits. As long as we don't do anything out of line, it should be fine." Lewis spread his hands and pretended to be relaxed. Sharon didn't say anything else. His figure gradually became illusory and transparent, and finally disappeared in the car.

Lewis drove all the way to Williams Street, where Queens meets the West End, and paid the driver 3 soli, where he met the waiting servant outside House No. 8.

The servant, wearing a red vest and light-colored trousers, bowed respectfully and said:
"Good morning, is this Detective Lewis?"

"Yes, I have an appointment with Mr. Carter." Lewis nodded slightly and followed the butler into the mansion with a lawn in front and a garden on the side.

Mr. Miller was not wearing a top hat. He walked over with his nose covered and suddenly frowned:
"Detective, you didn't bring an assistant? There might be some danger hidden in that building."

Of course I have an assistant, but you can't see it... Lewis coughed lightly and said seriously:
"I am a professional in exploration. It is not suitable for too many people to go with me for the first exploration. Assistants who don't cooperate well with me will cause trouble for me. This is something that experienced detectives understand."

"So that's how it is. I understand." Miller nodded and said.

What do you understand? I don't even understand what I'm saying... Lewis smiled calmly and asked Miller to take him to the underground building.

Passing through the messy living room and walking down the stairs, you will enter a spacious basement.

There is no gas pipeline here, but there are four metal candlesticks embedded in the wall, and the dim candlelight flickers.

At the end, there is a gray-white stone door.

Lewis took the lantern from the old gentleman Miller and walked into the stone gate, where there was a corridor paved with stone slabs.

After passing through the corridor, Lewis pushed open the stone doors, and suddenly a hall came into view. In this hall there were countless long snakes with triangular heads and red patterns.

This creature is really scary... Lewis secretly complained and asked:

"Ms. Sharon, is there any way to get rid of these snakes?"

Sharon's figure appeared. She said nothing, but just floated up, causing a sudden biting cold wind to blow in the corridor.

The temperature here dropped rapidly, and the densely packed snakes suddenly dispersed, looking for a warmer and more suitable place for survival.

When the snakes disappeared somewhere, Lewis rubbed his nose.

Thanks to the abilities of the "machine," he didn't sneeze or shiver, which could easily have ruined the inscrutable image he created.

There are two huge seats in this hall, as if giants once sat on them.

There are symbolic patterns on these two seats, a black crown and a hand holding a scepter.

Miss Sharon frowned and looked around the place, feeling suspicious.

Lewis suppressed the itching in his nose as he walked through the hall, through the room with the statue of the goddess of night, and finally saw a road completely blocked by mud.

When he walked to the mud, Lewis was delighted, because he knew that he was very close to the room he was looking for, the one that bound the Red Angel.
