Chapter 518 The Strange Ancient Mirror, and the Somewhat Eccentric Client
When Kelly suddenly pushed open the door, he immediately saw that strange ancient mirror!
It stood there so conspicuously against the wall.
The coverings she had carefully placed over the mirror had all vanished!
When Kelly discovered that the ancient mirror had once again seen the light of day, he was immediately horrified.
She quickly turned around and shouted to her brother Tim:
"What's going on? Why did you open the packaging?"
Don't you know how dangerous it is!
Tim, who had followed them to the door, froze in surprise.
He pointed to the mirror behind Kelly with a somewhat surprised expression and said:
"Kelly, what are you talking about? The packaging is perfectly fine."
I only opened it for a glance, then sealed it back up.
Kelly was taken aback upon hearing this, and quickly turned her head to look at the ancient mirror again.
When she turned around again, she was shocked to find that...
That ancient mirror that was originally exposed to the air
It was indeed wrapped up tightly and placed perfectly intact against the wall.
Kelly rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
He then strode over and reached out to touch the packaging of the ancient mirror.
The smooth, oily feel of the black plastic confirmed to Kelly that it was all real.
She murmured, somewhat confused:
"What...what's going on? Did I just hallucinate?"
Tim, seeing his sister's puzzled expression, smiled and walked over to comfort her:
"Kelly, you're too nervous. That mirror isn't dangerous at all."
Upon hearing this, Kelly scratched his hair in exasperation.
Since the packaging was intact, the mirror shouldn't have affected her.
Thinking of this, she waved her hand somewhat angrily and said:
"It doesn't matter, the people from the agency will be here in a bit anyway."
As he spoke, Kelly took out his phone, glanced at the time, and said softly:
"And every half hour, Michael would call me to make sure I was safe."
"He's so thoughtful."
Tim chuckled and joked, then pointed to the anchor fixed to the roof.
Curious, he asked, "What is that?"
"Timed self-destruct device."
Kelly sighed softly and pointed to a button on the wall.
Tim explained:
"If we ultimately fail to resolve this mirror, then it will activate on its own."
The anchor will then fall down by itself and shatter the mirror.
At this point, Kelly smiled helplessly:
"However, we probably won't need it anymore."
Michael said that the Holy Light Agency is very powerful.
The completion rate of the commissions I accepted was 100%.
They should be able to solve this strange ancient mirror.
Tim rolled his eyes upon hearing this and muttered under his breath:
"This is just a waste of money; those people are all scammers."
Kelly gave Tim a long look and said softly:
"We'll find out soon enough whether it's a scam or not."
She then raised an eyebrow at her brother and strode out of the office where the antique mirror was displayed.
Seeing this, Tim shook his head helplessly and followed his sister out.
But just as Tim closed the door,
The black plastic covering the ancient mirror swayed without wind and gently floated to the ground.
It revealed the ancient, gray mirror that had been hidden beneath.
Two hours later.
The flight carrying Li Yuan and his entourage landed smoothly at Albuquerque International Airport.
After disembarking from the plane, Li Yuan and his group first rented a car at the airport.
They then drove towards the Abikhi Red Rock Valley.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Li Yuan carefully examined the map and said to Edward:
"It's about a two-hour drive from here to the address Kelly left behind."
Fortunately, there weren't many forks in the road; just keep following State Highway 84.
"Don't worry, Li Yuan, I promise I won't take the wrong road!"
Edward laughed heartily as he made his promise to Li Yuan, then boasted:
"When Jamie and I go on commissions, I always drive, and we've never had any problems."
Are you sure?
Li Yuan curled his lip and, without even looking up, directly complained:
"I've heard that Jamie is the one driving, and you fall asleep as soon as you get in the car."
Lu, who was sitting in the back seat holding Hell Detective, covered his mouth and chuckled upon hearing this.
Edward, somewhat embarrassed, offered his explanation:
"This is slander! Jamie must be making this up!"
He started talking on the phone and texting with the girl as soon as he got in the car; he didn't have time to drive!
"Okay, okay, I got it. Just watch the road and don't drive into the ditch."
Upon hearing this, Edward quickly straightened the car and gave a slightly disgruntled snort.
He then focused intently on the road and sped off towards his destination.
The scenery along the way consisted mostly of vast deserts and Gobi.
Occasionally, you can also see the ruins of some Native American tribes.
It wasn't until we entered the Chama River Valley that green vegetation gradually came into view.
After driving for nearly two hours,
Edward drove the car into a side road.
Only a few houses appeared here; it was a residential area with lush vegetation.
Li Yuan stared at an old mailbox in front of a house.
Pointing to the house number, he said to Edward:
"This should be it. Let's go in and take a look."
Edward nodded upon hearing this and slowly drove the car into the courtyard of the old house.
After the three people and the cat got out of the car,
Edward gazed at the beautiful scenery around him, smacked his lips, and
He subconsciously complained:
"This house is really nice. It seems the client's family is well-off. I should have charged more for the service fee."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan chuckled softly and instructed Edward:
"Don't underestimate what's inside. We're not here on vacation. That mirror must be something special."
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
As he spoke, Edward patted his chest with great confidence.
He turned and winked at Lu, who was holding the black cat, showing off:
"Lu, once you go inside, just watch my performance."
This can be considered an exorcism tutorial!
After saying that, Edward ignored Li Yuan and Lu.
Alone, he strode arrogantly toward the old house.
Looking at Edward's funny expression, Li Yuan helplessly covered his forehead.
As he followed, he whispered an explanation to Lu beside him:
"Lu, not all servants are like him."
Most of my subordinates are exceptionally talented elites.
"I know, Lord Li Yuan."
Having met the other attendants, Lu covered his mouth, chuckled softly, and nodded.
Then, in a soft voice, he defended Edward:
"However, Edward is indeed a kind-hearted person who is very warm-hearted towards his companions."
Li Yuan nodded slightly upon hearing this.
Lu is right, Edward is indeed a kind-hearted person.
This is why Edward was able to stay by his side all this time.
Recalling the past, Li Yuan chuckled softly, about to say something.
But then they saw the door of the old house in front of them being gently opened a crack.
Edward looked at the face peeking through the crack in the door and said with a smile:
"Hello, Miss Kelly, do you remember me?"
I am Edward, an exorcist from the Holy Light Agency.
However, Kelly, peeking through the crack in the door, seemed to have forgotten about Edward.
She gently shook her head and whispered:
"Excuse me, sir, I don't know what you're talking about?"
Edward was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and thought to himself:
What's going on?
This Ms. Kelly, she talked to me for over two hours!
How could you not remember who you are?
Thinking of this, Edward became more vigilant.
He frowned and lowered his voice to ask:
"Miss Kelly, are you in some kind of trouble?"
Kelly's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this, as if he were pondering something.
Just then, the door was suddenly pulled open.
A young man Edward didn't recognize stood next to Kelly and politely said:
"Excuse me, sir."
My sister has paranoia.
There must be some misunderstanding here.
At the same time, Li Yuan walked closer.
Suddenly, a low whimpering sound was heard from the Hell Detective, who was being held by Lu.
As its eyes turned into vertical pupils, the fur on its tail also stood on end!
