Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 1358 Two hundred and ninety-six. Good night, have a good dream

  Ana woke up early today, as did Lu Li.

   The sun has not yet risen from the roof. Lu Li turned his back to the window and quietly listened to Anna busy cleaning up the housework outside the door.

   Anna took a day off for today's camping. Before the sun was shining on the curtains, Anna gently pushed open the bedroom door.

   "It's cloudy today and it's cold outside. Wear more clothes before going out."

  Opening the curtains, Anna found an old sweater that had been washed and faded from the closet and helped Lu Li put it on.

The    collar went from his head to his neck, and his black hair was blown up by the friction of the wool, so Anna smiled and stroked the raised hair with her hand.

   Breakfast was some leftover oatmeal from yesterday, which Anna reheated and boiled another egg. Lu Li shook his feet gently, sat in the chair, and watched Anna's back busy.

  The oatmeal and eggs were cooked quickly, Anna returned to the table with the steaming food, peeled off the eggs, and put them into the porridge bowl in front of Lu Li.

"And yours?"

  Anna was completely empty.

   "Mrs. Tom said yesterday that she will prepare rich ingredients, I will eat it later." Anna said.

  Lu Li thought for a while, and pushed the egg oatmeal porridge towards Anna: "I won't eat it either."

   "Smart little guy." Anna reached out and scratched Lu Li's nose, "Half of us?"

"it is good."

  A bowl of oatmeal and an egg is obviously not enough for two people to eat, so one person is not hungry to two people are not full.

  Ana brought Lu Li's socks and teddy bear from the bedroom.

   "With it, you can play with Percy and Moore."

   "I don't want to share it." Lu Li hugged the birthday present Anna gave.

   "It's not good to be selfish."

  Anna put the teddy bear into Lu Li's small backpack, gently caressed Lu Li's scabbed knee, and put on socks for him.

Jingle Bell-

  Ana stood up and picked up the phone, the voice that came out made Lu Li recognize Mrs. Tom's voice.

   "Yes, we're ready. Elm Street? Well, here we go."

   Hanging up the phone, Anna went back to her room, changed into a long white dress, tied her long hair in a simple ponytail, and pulled up the hand of Lu Li, who was carrying a small backpack, and walked out of the house.

   It rained in the second half of the night, making the morning slightly cooler, but the bright sunshine overflowing from the broken clouds meant that it would be a comfortable sunny day later.

   The broken flagstone road is full of potholes, water is everywhere, and occasionally passing vehicles splash large pieces of mud.

  Anna crouched down in front of a "stream" and motioned for Lu Li to climb up.

  Lu Li climbed up on Anna's back and put his arms around her neck. Anato landed away, stepping nimbly over the stones in the stream.

  The thick dark clouds gradually faded, scattered brilliance, the accumulated water reflected the sky, and there were two figures sticking together in the distance.

   came to Elm Street, Tom and his wife and their children were waving to this side. The two families gathered and headed to the campsite in the elm forest.

   Here you can see the vast sea in the distance and enjoy the tranquility of the forest.

  Mrs. Tom and Anna spread the floor together and put out the food in the basket.

   "Anna, you are not too young, and you are bringing Lu Li. You need a man at home..."

   Mrs. Tom and young Anna were talking in low voices.

   "No, I still have to take care of Lu Li..." Anna politely declined.

   "You are like siblings." Mrs. Tom sighed helplessly, looking at Lu Li who was sitting quietly beside her: "Take good care of Anna in the future."

  Lu Li nodded seriously.

  Percy and Moore ran after the butterfly, and Mrs. Tom asked Lu Li and Percy Moore to play.

  Anna urged Lu Li again before following them reluctantly.

   Pesci and Moore ran and beat the bushes with the branches they picked up, and they gradually moved away from the camp to an overgrown path leading to a cliff.

   "Let's explore the cliffs!"

  Percy and Moore walked through the grass, and Lu Li followed, as if watching over them. But after walking through the bushes, they were gone.

  The overgrown weeds made Lu Li unable to see anything. He subconsciously moved forward, but he ignored that there was no way under his feet.

"Land from!"

   Lu Li was taken aback by the sudden shout, the rubble rolled down, and then a familiar figure rushed over and hugged him tightly.

   "I'm fine."

  Lu Li was a little breathless, and then he saw that he was standing on the edge of a cliff, with Belfast so far away under his feet.

   "My fault... shouldn't have let you out... go back to Mrs. Tom."

  Ana watched Percy and Moore snickering beside her, her gentle eyes gradually turned cold.

  Lu Li nodded obediently and returned to the camp the same way.

Not long after    came back, there was a rustling sound from the grass. Anna, who had scratched the skirt and had bloodshot scratches on her arms and calf, ran out in a panic and shouted to Tom and his wife:

   "Percy and Moore fell off a cliff!"

   Dazed Lu Li stayed at the camp.

   Anxious, angry and crying Tom and his wife ran out after Anna. They couldn't find the child, so they called the police. They took over the campsite, Tom and his wife joined them to find the child, and Lu Li and Anna were taken to the police station.

  Lu Li was sitting on the bench, with the teddy bear showing his head in the backpack next to him, as if he was peeking here.

  Some police officers noticed the little boy sitting on the bench and discussed sending him home first, but every time, Lu Li would say "I want to wait for Anna".

   "She's a suspect now."

   "Don't tell the children this..." The companion stopped the police officer.

  Lu Li sat alone on the bench, watching people busy, it was getting darker and darker outside, and the street lights gradually turned on.

   Finally, he saw the tired Anna come out, grab the backpack and jump off the bench.

   "It's all right. The two children were found, and a tree caught them." The police officer who followed and the little boy who had been waiting for a day said.

  Anna hugged Lu Li and went home together.

   Seemingly back to business as usual, Anna **** her apron for dinner. Lu Li, as usual, sat at the dining table and looked at Anna's busy back.

  The only thing different from usual is that only Anna is talking.

  After dinner, Anna folded the dishes and said, "Are you scared? Go to bed early today" and walked into the kitchen.

  Lu Li quietly climbed off the chair and went back to the room to lay the quilt for himself.

   Putting the clothes he took off on the bedside table, Lu Li looked at the door. Not long after, Anna pushed the door and walked in.

   "Are you waiting for me?" Anna smiled softly, "There is no story today."

   "Did you make Percy and Moore fall off the cliff?"

   The pure black eyes reflected the silent girl.

   "It's not right to do this..."

   "It is only children who distinguish right from wrong."

  Anna sat on the edge of the bed, hugged Lu Li, and gently stroked his hair, "I won't let anyone hurt you."

   "…I want to hear stories."

  The smile reappeared on Anna's face. She helped Lu Li tuck the quilt and grabbed the rope of the chandelier.

   "You will have a fantastic dream. In the dream, you will carry a sword to protect the kind and hard-working people and drive away the bad guys..."

   The girl leaned over and kissed the boy's forehead.

"Good night, sweet dreams."
