217. Trieste Detective Agency_1

The police carried the person away, and Shia placed the book on the table.

Lu Ban felt the cover looked familiar. It depicted a man in a suit engrossed in his work at a desk, surrounded by various ugly and abstract monsters. The entire scene emitted a strong sense of discordance, appearing quite mad.

The title, translated from 'Silent Lands', read 'Shadow of Terror'. Looking back at the cover illustration, one would realize that these monsters were all emerging from the man's shadow.

Lu Ban subconsciously looked at his own shadow, which was empty and pitch-black.

""This is a book from the Ancient Capital.""

Trieste picked up the book.
