55. The conspiracy of birth

"Don't be so wary Cesar, think about it, this is the best opportunity for us to promote our 'appearance'." Professor Daisy Schmidt tried to persuade Professor Cesar: "Everyone will know that we discovered it.

hero!"

Professor Cesar wanted to defend something, but it turned into a weak sigh: "Nuno and the others know that you are using Mr. Lu Li and they will not let you go."

"This is not considered use, Professor Cesar." Dean Lawrence said with excitement. "It's just about letting a hero who has sacrificed a lot get the honor he deserves."

"And then achieve your own goal?" Professor Cesar sneered.

"What if that is a noble purpose?" Professor Daisy Schmidt shook his head. "We have been immersed in superficiality for too long... How many students do you have in linguistics? Six or seven? Not even as good as Nuno's archeology.

Study...look out the window at the real University of Crans. There is only one manor, a few professors and dozens of students. We don’t even deserve to be a facade.”

"Nuno will not accept this excuse," Professor Cesar simply said.

"I will lobby him there," Dean Lawrence said quickly.

Professor Cesar stopped being tough and looked at Lu Li beside him: "Have you obtained the opinion of this suspected legendary exorcist?"

"We are about to do this." Professor Daisy Schmidt, who believed that the exercise was noble rather than exploitative, said to Lu Li: "Sir, Lu Li, we want to——"

"I don't mind."

Lu Li interrupted Professor Daisy Schmidt's follow-up lobbying, and he pieced together their plan from the conversation.

"Just don't forget your promise."

"Promise...?" Professor Daisy Schmidt was stunned for a moment and thought of something: "You mean the girl's shadow and the businessman?"

"Um."

"Don't worry, we will mobilize all the people we can to find their whereabouts for you!" Professor Daisy Schmidt said excitedly.

It was easier to convince them than imagined, and Dean Lawrence was equally excited.

The appearance of Klein University has been silent for too long. Even though it is part of the real Klein University, no students go to study there. There are only a few dozen poor students. Many of them use the appearance as a springboard, hoping to attract attention with their outstanding performance.

The gaze on the giant tree, entering the real Crans University...

"I don't understand, what are you going to do to Lu Li?" Catalina suddenly said at this time.

Thinking that there was another hunter, Professor Daisy Schmidt told about their cooperation with Lu Li.

It appears that Crans University helped Lu Li find the person he was looking for, and they gained popularity by promoting Lu Li.

"What can I get?" Catalina's question was very direct.

And there are direct benefits.

"Everyone will know that you brought back Mr. Lu Li, and you will gain a lot of fame." Professor Daisy Schmidt replied.

Sounds...not bad.

Caterina was easily convinced.

The first benefit of the cooperation quickly emerged. Lu Li and Catalina, who were supposed to be waiting for the arrival of the giant tree in the conference room, were warmly received. They were each taken to the luxurious suites on the top floor of the university, which were used to receive aristocratic dignitaries.

Prepare hot water, food, and clothing.

When the clothes were delivered, Lu Li asked them for a set of clothes.

The warm hot water dispelled the chill and fatigue. Lu Li's face sank into the water, feeling the brief peace that his thoughts were separated from reality.

While Lu Li and Catalina were resting, Dean Lawrence was working.

He hired many people to spread gossip in the streets, used his connections to contact nobles, officials, newspaper reporters, and even theaters, told them about Lu Li, and rehearsed and performed a script about Lu Li's story as soon as possible.

Of course, all this is based on Lu Li really being Lu Li. If not——

"You will become a joke."

Dean's Office.

Said a tall woman wearing a wizard's hat and a purple robe that barely concealed her figure.

"We have always been, Ms. Lelia." Dean Lawrence replied bitterly.

Ms. Lelia did not dwell on this topic for too long: "Bring that 'hero', the truth and falsehood will eventually be revealed."

Dean Lawrence left his chair: "Please follow me. Professor Daisy Schmidt, please call Mr. Lu Li."

Professor Daisy Schmidt agreed, walked out of the dean's office, went to the top floor and knocked on the door of the suite.

"Sir Lu Li, I am Professor Daisy Schmidt."

Click——

After a while, the door opened, Lu Li was revealed after washing away the dried mucus and dust, and putting on brand new clothes.

He was wearing a snow-white shirt, which outlined his slender body. His slightly dry black hair rested on his forehead, making his black gem-like eyes even more mysterious.

"That's great..."

Professor Daisy Schmidt couldn't help but sigh and bowed slightly: "Your Excellency Lu Li, someone from Jushu has arrived and is waiting in the conference room."

"Um."

Lu Li put on his black coat, subconsciously touched Kong Kong's waist, and then retracted his palm.

"The person here is Ms. Lelia, the professor of occult science on the giant tree." Daisy Schmidt said after Lu Li came out and closed the door.

"Why don't you call Caterina?"

When he came to the corridor and passed Catalina's room, Lu Li said, "She is very wary. It's best to tell her our whereabouts."

"Of course." Professor Daisy Schmidt signaled to the guard at the door, or the guard guarding the door, to knock on the door and call Catalina, and then continued to lead Lu Li to the conference room.

Many people gathered in the conference room, including professors from "Appearance" and some unfamiliar faces that Lu Li had never seen before. They looked at Lu Li curiously.

Except for Professor Nuno Alexandrovich. He was not in good condition and in case something happened again, he was left in the ward to await the results.

Lu Li became the center of attention when he walked into the conference room, attracting everyone's attention.

"He's so good-looking..."

The girl assistant next to Ms. Lelia whispered.

"Heroes usually have elegant appearances, and so do liars." Ms. Lelia, whose face was covered by a wide wizard hat, said, placing a rectangular stone with a hole on the table.

"Put your finger in."

"What's this."

Lu Li stared at the stone, which seemed to have been cut from something, with the outline of lips vaguely visible on the front.

"The mouth of Theloness can taste purity and filth, truth and falsehood." Ms. Lelia said, looking at Lu Li.

In the conference room where there was only the sound of suppressed breathing, Lu Li faced everyone's gaze and walked to the table. He stretched out his right index finger and peered into the unsettling dark hole deep inside.

"I'm warning you in advance, if you're not so clean, it's best not to do this." Ms. Lelia, who was crossing her arms, suddenly said: "The mouth of Theronis will bite off your fingers, and the wound cannot be healed.

"

Lu Li paused slightly and put his finger into Theronce's mouth.
