The change of the city gate "guard" towards Lu Li illustrates this point, what does it mean, such as some kind of talent.
Weird as well.
Otherwise, they could have looked for the reflection that did not appear in the Upside Down City, instead of pretending to play games with humans in the "Paradise".
"It has nothing to do with you." Lu Li replied calmly, walking around "Madam" and leaving the bottom of its stomach.
The more you speak before you understand the situation, the greater the vulnerability. Silence is the best way to deal with it.
"You treat a lady so roughly?" Angry words sounded from behind, with a hint of complaint, and no one could guess its true identity.
"I don't like women." Lu Li didn't look back, and a simple reply floated in the air, attracting a burst of teasing side glances.
The "lady's" expression became cold, but "she" could not continue to pester Lu Li for the time being, because the figure of a young "gentleman" walked toward it.
All existence is of the same image.
All existences are suspicious of each other.
After leaving far enough, Lu Li, who was standing at the crossroads, stopped and waited for the carriage to pass by. He took out the pocket watch in his pocket and opened it as if to check the time.
There was no warning from the pocket watch, the sanity counter never came to mind, and the keen premonition disappeared.
There is no atmosphere at all in the royal city, except for the weird city itself.
Several skeletons pulling the carriage finally passed by, and Lu Li's vision suddenly brightened.
People come and go on the streets, and the figures of customers appear in shop windows. They live in this underground city as humans, temporarily.
Lu Li didn't know where to look for Anna, but for now it was the safest choice to follow the identity given by the "Lord", and use his talent of spying on the Upside Down City to gather the surviving humans in disguise.
But Lu Li first had to gain their trust.
After waiting for more than ten seconds at the intersection, a figure invisible in the Upside Down City came towards me.
That man was a middle-aged man. Lu Li whispered before he walked away from him: "Senior Investigator Lu Li, I have the ability to distinguish between humans and weirdos. I know you are human."
A flash of panic flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, but he covered it up again, frowned and cursed a madman in his mind, and walked away in disgust.
This doesn't seem to work.
The wet ground in the city tells of what happened in the past few hours. Those who would show off their mistakes and trust others easily are long dead. Only the smart, vigilant, and wary of everything are still alive in the city.
Therefore, the results of several contacts on the way to Xiutes University were the same - the best one was that the person was interested, but still shook his head and walked away, failing to believe Lu Li.
However, when I came into contact with the eighth person, the situation took a turn for the better.
"Senior Investigator Lu Li was hiding in Rico Farm before because his assistant went missing while investigating the royal city. I have the ability to distinguish humans from weird ones. I know you are human."
Opposite Lu Li was a middle-aged man with messy brown hair and an unkempt appearance. The edge of a sanity counter was exposed under his sleeves. When the middle-aged man who wanted to avoid it heard the content, his eyes suddenly flickered.
He was hesitating whether to believe Lu Li.
"If you are an exorcist, you should have heard of me. Recall carefully: Allen Peninsula, the person who sounded the death knell of the evil god."
The middle-aged man frowned and thought for a moment, and suddenly a vague excitement and surprise flashed across his eyes. He remembered something, but still did not speak.
"The Tesla family, the Foley family, the Ma Fulin family, the Council of Exorcists, the Dandelion Incident at Night." Lu Li successively told the information that the middle-aged man might know, which had some effect. The suspicion in the middle-aged man's eyes was almost
fade away.
"I was asked to go to Xiutes University. Do you know there is a hotel there?" Lu Li changed his plan. This is not the place to discuss things.
Perhaps because of the long conversation, or perhaps because of Lu Li's appearance, some malicious eyes were cast on him.
"...I've never been to that street." A few seconds later, the middle-aged man answered slowly.
"I will rent a room there and draw crow marks on the windows. When you have time, go there and wait for me, and I will find a chance to come out."
Feeling that the eyes around him were beginning to move, Lu Li stopped lingering and prepared to leave.
The middle-aged man suddenly whispered, grasping the faint hope that emerged in front of him: "My name is Jiminy Reid. At the cost of my life, I believe you... I am an exorcist, the kind outside the joint organization... Be careful
It’s weird, their temperaments are very different, a cautious person will continue to observe if they suspect you, and a wanton person will attack if they suspect you.”
"Thanks."
Lu Li nodded lightly and walked away across the intersection.
There are only a few people who are exorcists like Jiminy Red and believe in Lu Li.
After that, Lu Li didn't meet anyone who believed in him for a long time, and he also encountered trouble once——
"Human?!"
The old man screamed, loud enough to be heard by the weird people around him: "Do you think I'm a fool... luring me to attack you and then be punished?"
Then he deliberately retreated to distance himself from Lu Li, repeating what Lu Li had said before and taunting the gathered weirdos.
Even without looking at the Upside Down City above his head, Lu Li could sense the unconcealed malice in the silhouettes of those figures.
"Why don't you do it yourself?" Lu Li just looked at the old man calmly.
The seeds Lu Li planted quickly grew into suspicion, and some malicious eyes fell on the old man. Then, the moment the old man exclaimed on his face, the weirdos swarmed up.
Lu Li lowered his eyes slightly, ignored the calls for help that stopped suddenly, and turned to leave.
A few of them stared at Lu Li in the distance with strange and covetous eyes, but he didn't show any clues that would make them suspicious - if they guessed wrong, they would be severely punished.
Lu Li didn't blame the old man for his actions, it was just a selfish act to stay safe - he had already paid the price for his actions.
However, there are still some hidden dangers. For example, Lu Li no longer has contact with the survivors. He entered the royal city to find Anna. Whether it is to save more people or to find out the truth, it is best to do it after finding Anna.
And the weirdness that follows behind.
Easily shaking off the undisguised follower, Lu Li arrived at the block where Xiutes University is located.
Walking into the hotel closest to the university, Lu Li took the key from the owner whose identity he could not identify, and walked up the stairs to the second floor while observing everywhere.
It is worth mentioning that the currency of transaction is still shillings, not flesh and blood, which is more in line with "common sense".
Click——
After closing the door, Lu Li checked the closet and under the bed to make sure there were no weird things hiding, then turned on the stove in the corner, took out a piece of charcoal and drew a crow mark on the window.
After doing this, Lu Li left the hotel and came to the main entrance of Xiutes University.
An obscure and ethereal whisper sounded in the depths of my mind at this time.
