Lu Li had no intention of looking at those love letters filled with gorgeous words and filled with the sour smell of love, so he put it into the deepest part of the drawer along with the previous letter.
There began to be vague voices in the bedroom. Lu Li was not interested in listening to the whispers between the girls. However, occasionally, a few words that were difficult to control and slightly clear were heard in the living room.
"You still look the same as you did then..."
"Well, you have grown up, your appearance...and your figure."
"Pfft...what do you care about?"
Lu Li silently withdrew his attention and started today's "Belfast Today"
The most conspicuous bold font is printed on the first page of the homepage: [Rain will come soon, and the haze that fills the sky of Allen Peninsula is about to end]. Most of the content is related to the weather. Some scholars have analyzed and commented on the effects of rainfall on Allen Peninsula.
What kind of benefits can come from it, such as plants?
Thanks to the lingering fog, it's already June, but Belfast is still bare and gray. The trees have no green buds, and the wild grasses that have always grown vigorously are nowhere to be seen.
Belfast is a seaport city, and the lack of plants will only make it look bare and ugly. However, I heard that farmers in the interior who rely on growing crops to survive have begun to panic. If the crops do not sprout, it may be too late before the winter snowfall.
reward.
The second edition is also related to the weather. Belfast Municipal Council issued information that the rainy season is coming on the Allen Peninsula, reminding residents to pay attention to moisture prevention and to stock up on kerosene.
Belfast's kerosene is transported from other cities. After the rainy season begins, the surrounding land in Belfast will turn into a swamp due to terrain reasons, making it extremely difficult to pass. By then, Belfast will be like a desert island, almost like a desert island.
Isolated from the world.
Turning to the third page, it was no longer about the weather, but tidbits about a certain baron.
[A gigolo took Baron Joseph to court: claiming that he was assaulted by Baron Joseph at a private dance a few days ago]
It can be seen that there is a lack of news in Belfast, and this piece of entertainment-oriented news actually occupies an entire page.
After taking a few glances to understand the general news, Lu Li continued to turn the pages. The following news became much more normal, such as a murder in Heijin Street, a scholar who went to prostitutes without paying and had a lot of hair ripped off in a fight with a young lady, Desai
Si became the chief of the Xingchen District Police Station and so on.
Time passed quietly until almost an hour had passed.
Squeak——
The door suddenly opened, and Daisy walked out with a smile in her eyes.
Anna floated behind, her eyes like crescent moons, and she was also smiling.
Daisy first said goodbye to Lu Li politely, then took Anna and whispered some girls' whispers, waved and reluctantly left.
"I thought you would stay a little longer."
After Daisy left, Lu Li said to Anna who floated over.
Anna floated to Lu Li's side and sat down at the desk: "I drove her away. I told her that I couldn't come out for too long."
Lu Li said nothing, waiting for Anna to continue.
There was a hint of worry in her eyebrows: "I have been thinking about one thing since I woke up. Am I still a human being now? I can think, speak, and affect things around me, but I am already dead...
It’s different from you.”
Anna's bright eyes fell on Lu Li, with some kind of expectation - as if she expected Lu Li to say some comforting words that would inspire her heart.
But she was obviously overthinking it. Lu Li never comforted others, just like he never talked nonsense.
Anna waited stupidly for a long time, and found that Lu Li showed no sign of speaking. Her delicate cheeks gradually turned red, and she shouted in embarrassment: "You have nothing to say to me!"
"...There are still some." After a few seconds of silence, Lu Li nodded, and when Anna's eyes suddenly lit up, he said, "Why did you drive her away."
"???"
In just a few seconds, Anna's mood changed rapidly, from confusion to confusion, from shame to relief. She finally sighed quietly, not sure if it was because of Lu Li or Daisy: "I'm afraid that staying with me for too long will be bad for her health.
Isn’t it written in those ghost novels that ghosts and living people will affect living..."
Anna's voice stopped suddenly, and she quickly covered her mouth and glanced at Lu Li secretly.
"I feel fine right now."
Lu Li replied that he didn't care about it.
Anna breathed a sigh of relief and sighed a little lonely.
A ghost doesn't want his friends in life to get hurt because of him. At first glance, he looks like a heart-warming ghost.
"Times have changed." Lu Li suddenly spoke, his tone a little strange.
"What?" Anna was slightly stunned, unable to understand.
Lu Li pointed to the phone and continued: "If you are worried that contact with her may cause her physical problems, why don't you call her."
"...I'm going to get the phone!"
Anna looked restless and rushed out the door in shame, calling for Daisy who had not gone far.
Lu Li looked away and raised the newspaper again. Then he remembered that he had finished reading the newspaper and folded it up beside the table.
He began to think about the commission he was going to make next.
The current situation is a bit embarrassing. Lu Li's savings are 700 shillings, which means he can go to Hades to inquire about the truth if he accepts a commission of more than 300 shillings.
The problem is that Lu Li does not have any commissions with a reward of more than 300 shillings. This means that Lu Li has to accept two commissions to collect 1,000 shillings.
He took out the pile of commission information in the drawer, and the ones ranked first were the haunted house and the lunatic asylum.
The former is easy enough, and you only need to investigate and confirm whether the ghosts in the haunted house are real people or real ghosts. The latter is a bit dangerous, but it is related to Athena. His husband disappeared near the lunatic asylum, and there may be some clues there.
Apart from these two commissions, one of the remaining two commissions was the Belfast Library, where Lu Li met a wraith - naturally he would not try his luck.
The last thing left is the ghostly figure of Stover's Lumberyard.
[This commission was jointly posted by several loggers. They claimed that there would be walking figures and strange sounds of communication in the forest every evening. After several secret observations from a distance, they discovered that even in the dark, there were strange shadows in the forest.
It won't go away. Those loggers hope to find out the truth and exorcise the ghost.]
This was what was written on the commission message. The clues revealed in just a few words gave Lu Li a hint that something was wrong.
More importantly, it was far away from Belfast and close to the countryside. If he encountered some kind of danger, Lu Li wouldn't even be able to contact the police station in time.
At this moment, Anna floated in from behind the door.
"Caught up?" Lu Li said without raising his head.
"Yeah." Anna nodded, her cheeks still slightly red.
Lu Li put down the commission message, raised his black eyes and looked directly at Anna: "Do you want to go for a walk?"
Anna was stunned for a moment, and after a few seconds, her clear, light blue eyes became brighter and brighter, bursting with bright light like stars.
