Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 303 Two hundred and eighteen. A dream

   Chapter 303 Two hundred and eighteen. A dream

   The steady rise and fall of his chest indicates that the man has fallen asleep.

   He was as peaceful as most people were asleep, and it was difficult to connect the man's previous remarks to this time.

   Lu Li tilted his head and looked at Anna, who appeared beside him. The latter shook his head gently at him. She didn't feel any existence appearing while the man was sleeping.

   Lu Li too.

   Lu Li tried to call him, but got no response. Pushing the man's arm, only a wet smear was squeezed out of the wet clothes warmed by the body.

  Lu Li used some other wake-up methods, such as splashing water and shaking, and the man couldn't wake up like a strong sleeping pill. Opening his eyelids, the bloodshot eyeballs were turning rapidly.

  The man has begun to enter the dream state.

   And according to the disparity between his reality and his dream, he may have spent months in his dream after falling asleep for a few minutes.

   checked the man's pockets again and found nothing but shillings and matches in a waterproof bag.

   The man also told Lu Li when he was awake that he had never touched anything strange.

  Lu Li took a few steps back and said to Anna, "Try if you can wake him up."

  Anna's wake-up method is very direct. The man is controlled by Anna to float up, and then starts to turn like the hour hand on an alarm clock.

   But he still didn't wake up.

  Lu Li asked Anna to put him down and said, "It seems that his dream can't be forcibly awakened."

   "Can't we help him." Anna said with a sigh.

   This person is really pitiful, trapped in his own dream in despair and unable to escape.

   "Perhaps." Lu Li answered vaguely, looking towards the corridor outside the door where the footsteps walked.

  The merchants are coming today, they should know something.

   After confirming that the man could not be awakened, Anna went back to the kitchen to prepare food, Lu Li opened the newspaper and checked the weather for the last three days.

  The good news is that the heavy rain will stop briefly tomorrow, and there will only be some light rain the day after tomorrow, which gives ordinary people some buffer time.

  The news of the terrifying Faceless Giant on the waters of the port of Zenster did not make it to the newspapers, and it may be a few days before it reaches Belfast.

   But some well-informed people have already begun to prepare.

   When he came back early in the morning, Lu Li saw a rich man transferring his property and fleeing Belfast. His wagons lined the streets one after another.

   Of course, it could just be a coincidence.

   Half an hour later, Anna placed the steaming pot on the dining table and asked Lu Li, "How long will he sleep?"

  The man always sleeps in a lying position without any small movements.

   "Maybe you will wake up in five or six hours." Lu Li walked around the desk and sat down at the dining table.

  Ana said puzzled: "He hasn't slept for several days."

   "So he couldn't sleep too long."

  Anna didn't quite understand and nodded ignorantly.

   Anyway, she never saw Lu Li saying she missed it.

   It was just eight o'clock in the morning. After Lu Li had eaten this brunch, he waited for a while, and the businessman arrived as promised.

Lu Li thought that the merchant would use some kind of tool to carry the deep-sea stones that had turned into countless small cubes, or use its unusually large backpack, but the result was very dull. The merchant who appeared outside the door only brought two one. The cubic meter-sized wooden box contains nearly a thousand cut deep-sea stones and some scraps.

  Lu Li picked up a deep-sea stone, and it was slightly heavy. A small deep-sea stone of 10 cubic centimeters weighed about two to three pounds. The cutting surface is smooth and flat, like a Rubik's cube that has not yet been colored, with an inexplicable artistic sense.

  The deep-sea stone is thicker than expected. It can be expected that if this thing is spread all over the bedroom wall, the bedroom space will be crowded a lot.

   But it will be safe.

   Putting down the deep-sea stone, Lu Li first asked about the current price of the deep-sea stone.

   "10,100 shillings." The merchant replied coldly.

   "It was only 8800 shillings a few days ago." Lu Li said.

  The businessman didn't answer, Lu Li said calmly, "It seems that I can't afford to buy a third stone in a short time."

[Cries for help in the alley] The reward for the incident was replaced by 3+1+1 boxes of canned food and a part of the supplies prepared for the rainy season. Now he only has more than 1,000 shillings left - 700 shillings of which are still Monday. Weekly pay for investigators sent by coalition personnel.

   "You can buy it," the merchant said at this time.

  Lu Li looked up at him, and found that the businessman turned his head, and his eyes from under the hood fell out of the window.

   A black crow landed in front of the window and tilted its head to look at the figures in the house.

"excuse me."

   Lu Li told the businessman, go outside to retrieve the note on the messenger Black Crow's leg and return to the detective agency.

   "How many survey points do I have now."

   "960 Contribution Points." The merchant replied.

   is the same as the event reward on the note.

  Because of the harmfulness of [Cannibal House], it was finally rated as easy difficulty without difficulty.

   This means that Lu Li's progress in the event will be rewarded by a multiplier of five.

  The root cause of the incident was discovered and resolved, bringing Lu Li a 100% information reward. The way of dissemination of ancient books and the mining of clues such as danger and hidden time bring a reward of 92% information.

   Multiply them by five, and finally bring 960 investigation points to Lu Li.

   At the same time, Lu Li completed the simple event with more than 100% progress for the first time.

  If Lu Li completes more than two simple events with a completion rate of 100% or more, he can be promoted to senior investigator.

   "Then next time bring me the third deep sea stone."

   "Yes, is there any other transaction content?"

"and also."

  Lu Li turned his body so that the businessman could see the sleeping figure on the sofa: "I want to know his condition."

  The merchant reported a number: "1750 contribution points."

"Solution?"

   "His problem."

   In other words, if Lu Li wanted to know the cause of the man instead of the solution, he would have to pay 1750 contribution points.

   Lu Li couldn't even afford to know the man's cause.

   To a certain extent, this is also a message: what haunts men is an extremely terrifying existence.

  Ana looked at the man with a hint of pity.

   "Then it's all right, please cut the third deep-sea stone and send it."

"Um."

   After the transaction, the merchant leaves the detective agency.

  While the man was asleep, Lu Li went out once, went to several bookstores to rummage and bought a book on planting.

   It may be useful for either Annie or Elm Forest.

   Time passed, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, there was some movement from the figure on the sofa.

"here is……"

   A hoarse and obscure voice came, and the man sat up on the sofa and looked around in confusion.

   He stared blankly at Lu Li, who raised his eyes to look at him, and seemed to recall it for a long time: "You are still so young after so long..."

   His memory seemed to be a little confused. After a while, he rubbed his forehead and whispered, "I remember, you are an exorcist."

   "How long has it been in the dream?" Lu Li asked him.

  The man raised his head again, it was a deep gaze that had been through the vicissitudes of life.

   "Twenty-three years."

   The man spoke hoarsely.
