The paper was rolled up by Lu Li and stuffed into the mailbox. The black crow had finished eating. After Lu Li opened the window, it flapped its wings and flew out of the window, blending into the rich night.
Anna thought that was the end, but then she saw Lu Li fish it out on the desk, holding something in his empty palm, and threw it out of the window——
His confused eyes fell on Lu Li.
"The other crow you can't see." Lu Li explained.
Briefly confused, Anna suddenly remembered that there was something that others could not see.
Anna called out the object whose name no human being could pronounce: "That door?"
"Um."
"Hmm...how should we deal with it?" Anna then remembered that there was still a big trouble surrounding Lu Li.
"Waiting for a reply from the investigator headquarters."
If the "door" remains unchanged, Lu Li can still persist for a long time.
【When you hear it, they can see you. When you see it, they can touch you. Never touch them——】
The content in the diary ended abruptly, and the following content was predictable - he had to be close to the door to retain his remaining sanity, which meant that his range of activities was limited. If he was touched by the door or someone belonging to the door,
After bringing it in.
Lu Li hasn't heard it yet, which means that Lu Li has not been affected by the door, it is still trying to find himself, and once it finds Lu Li... Lu Li should hear it.
Lu Li did not write all the contents in the diary. First of all, it was written by Bill Eddy when he was on the verge of madness. Secondly, Bill Eddy may not have written the true contents in the diary, or he may not know the true contents.
The crow that Lu Li threw out of the window did not come back, and lay dormant in the darkness, waiting for the next attack.
The time has quietly moved to 10 o'clock. Anna lay on the bed to rest for a while, and then let Anna go to rest after she stopped dreaming about Annie.
Lu Li did not refuse. However, before going to sleep, a familiar "duh" sound came from the window.
Anna heard it too.
Opening the window and letting the black crow in, Lu Li sat up on the bed, put the coat on his body, took out the note and unfolded it.

【Investigator House of Himfast】
The local investigator base responded quickly, but verification took some time, and that was already after returning to Belfast.
Anna stayed by Lu Li's side with the love she brought over, and the night was peaceful. There was no emergency, and the resentful spirit that was forced away did not come to take revenge.
What woke Lu Li was the sound of subtle footsteps downstairs. He opened his eyes. Under the bright and uncomfortable light, Anna lowered her head to read a book. The alarm clock's hour hand was only a few hairs away from the number 6.
Dawn has arrived.
Anna, who was sitting behind the desk, realized something. Her long eyelashes trembled. She looked up at Lu Li and her eyes curved beautifully: "Are you awake?"
"Um."
Lu Li sat up, and Anna opened the curtains at this moment. The windows were covered with water marks and fog. There was no trace of vitality in the eastern sky facing them, and it was drizzling darkly.
Anna put out the oil lamp and thought about keeping the electric lamp.
Lu Li sat up, bent down, put on his shoes, ignored the coat beside him, and went out to the bathroom.
Anna followed him and stopped outside the bathroom, looking downstairs from the corridor, where Aunt Mary was preparing breakfast for them.
A few minutes later, Lu Li returned to the guest room with wet hands and cheeks. He looked out the window. The sky was brighter than before, but still dark.
The street lights on the street below are no longer on, and the light in the buildings stretching in the distance has also disappeared by half.
The visibility outside increased at a slow speed until it no longer became bright. Mary's call came from downstairs and breakfast had been prepared.
Lu Li and Anna returned downstairs. The breakfast prepared by Aunt Mary was still rich, including slices of bread, eggs, bacon, and the milk she bought on the street not long ago.
There are also 5,000 shillings stacked together.
Mary pushed it in front of Lu Li and Anna.
Lu Li did not reach out to pick it up.
Anna blinked and saw that Lu Li seemed not interested in money, so she simply picked up the stack of shillings and accepted it instead of Lu Li.
The smile on Mary's face became stronger: "When will you go back?"
"We'll dig out Annie later and then go back." Anna thought for a while and said.
Mary was slightly startled: "Are you going back so early?"
"Well! We have to get back to Belfast before dark."
"That's right... Black Sky will be very dangerous..." Mary murmured, and her smile reappeared to talk to Anna.
Probably because Lu Li was here, Anna talked a little more than when she was in Mary's room yesterday.
After breakfast twenty minutes later, Mary cleared the table and returned to the room to change clothes.
"We will return the money to her later," Lu Li said.
This made Anna unable to understand: "Aren't you short of money? Why don't you accept it?"
"Because of favor," Lu Li said to the stunned Anna. "Mary helped us. If the world collapses and she is in danger, we must help her."
This is the reason why Lu Li started to avoid meeting more people when he realized that the world was getting worse and planned to build an evacuation site.
He couldn't stand by and watch a stranger, let alone an acquaintance.
"Well..." Anna hesitated, but soon thought of her own unique solution: "Build the shelter first. And I received the money. If it doesn't work, just borrow it from Aunt Mary."
That’s it.”
Lu Li did not recover and seemed to acquiesce.
Anna was very happy to be able to persuade Lu Li, but soon she became worried when she remembered something: "If your prediction really happens, what should those people we know do? Daisy, Aunt Mary...
"
"We can remind them, just like I always do." Lu Li has been subtly changing Tesla's mind.
"Is that all?"
"Do you remember the Deep Sea Stone?" Lu Li asked, and Anna nodded and continued: "The price of Deep Sea Stone has been rising, and some people are considering buying the Deep Sea Stone. I think the three major organizations have realized that the world is becoming dangerous.
, setting out to build a real refuge.”
"I am an investigator and can shelter some people in the shelter."
Anna breathed a sigh of relief and no longer worried about her good friends and elders, but she was still a little puzzled: "Then since they are already building a shelter...why do we have to do this alone?"
"Rather than placing our own safety on others, I believe in ourselves more."
Lu Li answered, treating everything calmly and coldly.
But Anna was concerned about another thing.
He told us...
Anna felt as if her heart, which had long since cooled down, was beating again.
