Chapter 399: 256. Don't walk on unknown paths

Lu Li did not sleep soundly that night.

Not for any other reason, but from midnight onwards, the shouts of neighbors resounded continuously outside the Detective Agency. Some had leaking rooms, while others had rainwater flooding the corridors.

The landlord's shouting echoed throughout the night in the corridor outside the door.

Lu Li's unique status meant the slightly overweight landlord took deliberate care of him, such as ensuring the Detective Agency was damp but not leaking, and not calling anyone out to fix the leaks.

He was the honored guest on this leaking "Long House" ship.

Early morning, 5:30.

Anna woke him up as per Lu Li's request, then leaned against the window, continuing to gaze at the blurred rain-draped streets and pedestrians.

The torrential rain seemed to pour down from the sky like seawater, dark and showing only the outlines in a cyan-gray color.
