97. Mutual trust

The dense scratches that appeared on the surface made the dark branches badly damaged, but they did not turn into ashes like the previous two times.

"As we guessed, the hallucination period is early..." Tesla said to himself. "And you just saw the projection and were indifferent to the breath oozing out of the projection."

"Can you guess why this is happening?"

Since he was most familiar with Lu Li, Tesla was responsible for questioning Lu Li.

Under the gazes of the four persons in charge, Lu Li lowered his eyes and thought.

Being from another world is the most likely possibility. But without evidence, it can only be close to the truth but not equal to the truth.

So is there something unique that you have that no one else has?

Anna...Shadow Swamp...Black Eyes...

Lu Li thought of all the ways in which he was different from ordinary people. Could the "door" and "bloody tentacles" be among them?

"I thought of a possibility." Lu Li raised his head and said.

He told the relevant parts of the madhouse incident about Richard, including the bloody tentacles in his mind.

He has nothing to hide, he joined the investigators just to solve his hidden dangers.

It's just a pity that Lu Li can't talk about the door.

If Lu Li told the story about the "door", the result would be predictable: the highly contagious door would infect everyone in the room.

He doesn't have to do this.

Therefore, Lu Li can only pursue the clue "Gate" alone unless he encounters other victims.

"It sounds like some kind of curse or mark of an evil god." After listening to Lu Li's narration, Tristan said hummingly.

Tesla didn't think so: "Maybe not. I had erased the Mark of the Swamp Mother from him two days ago."

Rachel was applying nail polish and did not participate in the conversation. Occasionally her narrow eyes under the gauze would glance at Lu Li.

"What if it's a higher-level mark?" The man in black robe said thoughtfully. "If it's an evil god that can block the projection aura, its strength must be at a higher level. How can an evil god's mark of that level be blocked by

Wipe away with an edge wipe."

Tesla nodded: "This is also a possibility."

The man in black robe asked Lu Li: "Can you still remember the appearance of the bloody tentacles?"

Before Lu Li spoke, Tesla stopped him. He turned around and took down a quill pen and ink and a piece of paper from the bookshelf, placing them in front of Lu Li: "Write on the paper. If serious consequences may occur, everyone will not suffer."

Lu Li was not used to using a quill pen, but he knew how to use it. He dipped some ink into the tip of the quill pen and wrote the description of the bloody tentacles on the paper.

After washing, Lu Li folded the paper and handed it to the man in black robe.

The man in black robe took the piece of paper, folded it several times, put it in his arms and said, "I will take it back to the regional branch to check and make sure there is no breath on it. It may take three to seven days."

Lu Li nodded. If the bloody tentacles can be solved, it doesn't matter whether it has something to do with his condition, but at least one less problem will be solved.

After thinking about it, Lu Li asked Tesla for another piece of paper: "I thought of another possibility."

He intended to write about the "Gate" situation.

If the information on the "Bloody Tentacle" on the previous note would be opened after inspection, then he could also let the investigators use this method to test the information on the "door".

Just in case, Lu Li added: "But it may be more dangerous than the former. People who hear and see its body, or are related to it, or describe its content may be infected."

Lu Li was not sure whether he was infected by the "door" because of the diary or because of contact with the door.

In any case, Lu Li wanted to avoid any possibility. Except for the note, he would not reveal any information, and he could not even tell them that it was a "door".

"Including you?" Rachel asked.

The shaking quill tail paused briefly, then returned to normal: "...Including me."

"How did you get infected?" Tesla suddenly frowned.

"I read a diary, and was led around it by Richard's design, and saw it. So if you want to avoid greater danger, you'd better find Richard as soon as possible."

Lu Li's voice was calm and steady, with no emotion audible.

He took a huge risk by doing this.

Just like Richard can infect Lu Li with "Gate", Lu Li can also infect others with "Gate". If the characteristic of "Gate" is that anyone who knows "Gate" will be infected, that means Lu Li only needs to shout and leave

A few streets away, and in a few days there will be no one left in Belfast.

But Lu Li still told the investigators. He believed them and hoped to find a solution.

Lu Li wouldn't shout in the street, but Richard would.

"Where is it?" the man in black robe asked.

"One of the sewers leading to the beach from Agate Lake. It's 400 to 500 meters inside a rotten fence gate under the coastal block. I can't describe what it is." Lu Li wrote the description of the door and folded the paper a few times.

Once, he pushed it in front of the man in black robe. "Don't let it be lost."

"I will keep it safe." Dylan put away the second note.

Afterwards, the three persons in charge asked Lu Li questions related to his sanity. Tesla was attracted by the hidden dangers in Lu Li's body, and frowned and remained silent.

After the last question, the man in black robe said: "That's enough. Thank you for the information you brought to the investigator organization. After the investigation is completed, we will reward corresponding contributions based on the information you provided. You will be able to use them after you become an official investigator.

.”

Lu Li said nothing, stayed with the four of them for a moment, stood up and left the room.

After the door closed, the room fell into dead silence.

Three eyes fell on Tesla.

They know that this guy has a good relationship with the new guy who just went out.

Tesla also knew what they were waiting for. An irritability appeared on his face that he had not seen for a long time. He tapped his cane on the expensive velvet blanket: "I just want to say one thing - we are investigators, not night watchmen."

Hundreds of years of development have allowed the two organizations born out of the Demon Slayer to develop in two opposite directions.

The Night Watchmen are strict and disciplined, just like the Royal Guards. The investigators are free and spontaneous, like the bards.

If Lu Li's situation appeared among the Night Watchmen, it is very likely that they would secretly execute Lu Li or imprison him for research in order to ensure the safety of the people.

But among investigators, they don't care about the past of the people who join, or even whether the members are human.

Loose and Free Investigators will never restrict a member's freedom unless they are extremely unstable.

The man in black robe said casually: "Then just like those guys, mark it as the source of infection on the file and let people who come into contact with Lu Li know about the hidden danger. It's enough. We can't let down the members who trust us."

Tesla finally relaxed a little, stroking his beard and thinking about something.

After Lu Li asked about the matter, the man in black robe did not plan to leave for the time being. He looked at the three persons in charge.

"Aren't there four newcomers to be reviewed? I will stay in Belfast for half a day and see them by the way."
