A few minutes later, Lu Li finished writing the last part of the "Book Ghost"'s thanks to him. The crow was no longer interested in the food at its feet and lowered its head to preen its wet black feathers.
It's already full.
Anna put the bread back, and when she came out of the kitchen, she saw Lu Li rolling the notes he had written into a round shape, stuffing them into the mailbox and sealing the stopper.
"Trouble."
He said, opening the window on the sofa.
"ah--"
As if in response, the crow let out a shrill cry, spread its wings and flew out of the window, leaping over the house and turning into a black dot.
Some passers-by looked up in surprise. When they looked back at the window, the window had been closed again.
"Can it understand what we are saying?" Anna said a little disappointed, with regret that she could not touch it.
"have no idea."
After closing the window, Lu Li returned to his desk, put away his notebook and pen, made the desk clean, and then picked up the phone and dialed a number.
"Is it Lu Li?"
After a short wait, Tesla's distorted voice came from the microphone.
"Can you tell me about evil spirits?"
"Did you get the message?"
"The crow has just left."
"That's it...it's okay, but I don't know much about evil spirits. They are too mysterious. These guys are very different from weird ones. Some are like evil spirits and evil gods but not exactly like them. Hmm...let me think about it. According to
The information I know so far is that evil spirits have the ritual sense of evil spirits and the sanity of evil gods. They are generally chaotic. That is to say, they can think and communicate like humans. Some are malicious towards humans and some are kind.
Like the one you met."
This description made Lu Li instantly correspond to the girl holding an umbrella he had met before.
"How can I find out more about what I want to know? Is the only way to go to the library?"
Lu Li could only find relatively normal books in the library, but there was no weird information there.
"Go to the merchants. They are people from our three major organizations, and they are also a good place to buy information. If you want the information, you can directly buy it from them with property or information or contribution points. The stupider way is to ask other drivers
Demon, but be careful of the lion's mouth."
"By the way, you already know the merchant, right?"
The usefulness of contributions is internally equivalent to another currency.
"Yeah." Lu Li replied, capturing the special content in Tesla's words: "Them?"
"You'll find out later."
After saying a few words, Tesla invited Lu Li to visit his home when he was free, and then hung up the phone.
With no way to go to the real library and no commissions to do, Lu Li, who was used to being busy, found that he was actually becoming more relaxed.
There is literally nothing to do.
The basic salary of a trainee investigator of 350 shillings per week allows Lu Li to earn 50 shillings a day even if he does nothing. It is not every day that Lu Li can find a commission, and not every commission comes with high remuneration.
Marcus, who is "healthy and happy every day", has not contacted Lu Li for a while, maybe because he was caught and put in jail, or because there are more exorcists or fewer customers, Lu Li is not needed.
Oliver almost faded away. Only the occasional love letters from Mrs. Slav reminded Lu Li of this guy. Her sister also didn't visit her for a long time.
There are still only four bloody tentacles deep in the clouds. There is no increase, no decrease, and no movement.
Lu Li has handed over Richard's matter to the investigators. They will solve the problem between him and the Scarlet Tentacle. Lu Li just needs to wait patiently.
The same is true for the door. The investigator organization that knows the general information will study countermeasures for Lu Li.
The sanity level has to wait for the reply and arrival of brother and sister Remi.
To convert the event into a regular event, you need to wait for the investigator base to release the task.
The shopping list I received from the merchant last time will have to wait until the next time they arrive, but I don't know when they will arrive.
This happened to Lu Li. The rare inactivity lasted until ten o'clock in the morning a few hours later.
Lu Li went out to buy ingredients. Since he had nothing to do with Anna to improve his cooking skills and improve the food, he bought three ounces of carrots and some spices this time to enhance the taste.
Back to the detective agency, Anna began to prepare breakfast and lunch in the kitchen.
Ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door, and the postman delivered today's newspaper.
In all three newspapers, hurricane-related news no longer appears. The first page news is different.
The first page of the Daily News was the successful germination of artificial greenhouse plants.
The first page of the "Ellen Principality Bulletin" reported that the whereabouts of the Kodak Sylsen was still unknown, the farmland was still unable to be contacted, and the navy of the Principality of the Lennon Islands would soon arrive near the missing ship at Cape Wanghai, the farmland.
The first page of the "Walson Post" focused on Baron Joseph's lawsuit. After Baron Joseph handed over strong evidence, the plaintiff was preparing new testimony and evidence.
The rest are some news that often appear in newspapers. Unnamed bodies were found somewhere and could not be identified. A family of three in Elm Street, Belfast, died in the darkness due to a sudden failure of the oil lamp. The author warned that you must be prepared at night.
More than one lit oil lamp. A sperm whale washed up on the beach of Crescent Bay. It was highly decomposed and dead for a long time, and its body was covered with black sticky substances. The price of kerosene in the Allen Peninsula area is stable, and a company that mixes kerosene with water has been taken away by the police.
Go investigate.
When there was still one page left in the last newspaper, the knock on the door rang again.
It was still the postman in dark green uniform, and he delivered two letters this time.
Will it be a reply from Remy and Jimmy?
Lu Li took the letter and closed the door. Before he could turn around and walk away, a letter suddenly slipped from his fingers and stuck to the floor.
At this time, Lu Li still had two letters in his hand.
Lu Li bent down to pick up the letter. Anna poked her head out of the kitchen door and asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Lu Li held up the envelope and asked thoughtfully, "Can you see it?"
Anna shook her head.
"Where are these two letters?"
Anna nodded quickly.
"Gate" is mixed in once again.
Prioritize opening the letter sent by the "door", which uses Tesla's tone and assigns Lu Li to become a full-time official——
"Gate" still keeps pace with the times.
After returning to the desk, Lu Li opened the drawer, put it together with the previous letters, and then opened the second letter.
The letter paper was strange, as if it had been torn from a book. The edges were uneven, and there was something written in clumsy handwriting on the back.
This scene is full of déjà vu.
Lu Li turned to the back of the paper and looked at the few lines of scrawled writing.
[... Some adults said that there seemed to be some kind of swamp ahead... What is a swamp? April 12th. I was very sad... I didn't know what happened. My father and mother rushed in in a panic and hugged me. They took me and ran in
In the woods...]
Lu Li raised his eyes and looked deeply at the kitchen door.
