Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 32 Thirty-two. Ignorance is a blessing

   Get a kitchen knife from the kitchen and pry open the crate. Lu Li took out the sculpture from the pile of stuffing.

   The living room of the detective agency is quite large, or it looks spacious because it is empty. Except for the desk and bookshelf in the corner, and the dining table and sofa under the window, there is no other arrangement.

  Lu Li couldn't find a suitable place to place the sculpture, so he simply stood it by the door.

   The snow-white stone made it a little out of tune with the shabby nature of the detective agency. Lu Li took off his top hat and put it on casually, which made it seem a little more harmonious.

   Then came the oil painting. Lu Li had no tools to bind it on the wall, so he simply put it in the empty bookshelf.

  With two more exhibits brought from the gallery, the Detective Agency is finally no longer as lifeless as before.

  Empty bookshelves brought Lu Li new thinking. For example, the library has been burnt down, but books can be obtained from other places through purchase.

  Lu Li took out the only biography book in the drawer, and took out the piece of paper.

  【Important: Know where you are (Complete) - Collect 1000 shillings and trade more with Hades】

  【Secondary: Find a new place to live】

   Picking up the pen, Lu Li wrote the new content below.

  【Minor: buy books, learn about here through books】

   After sorting out his thoughts and making sure there was nothing else to add, Lu Li took out seven sheets of 100 shillings and put them together with paper, and put them in the book.

   Lu Li still has less than 200 shillings on him, which is his next daily expenses and Oliver's 30 shillings reward.

   About buying books, maybe you can ask Oliver to ask about the price first. But before that, Lu Li had other things to do.

   It was a long time before dark, and it was time for him to ask some questions.

   Free.

  …

   Jingle Jingle——

  Lu Li pushed open the wooden door, and the breeze blowing in made the wind chimes ring a little hurriedly.

   "Oh, look who's here? I didn't read the wrong person. You've saved enough money so quickly. You're the gold nugget among our exorcists... I mean a new star."

  The exaggerated exclamation particle came out of Hades' mouth, and he opened his arms as his golden teeth flickered.

   "You've said it for the third time." Lu Li looked around, the tavern was still empty and dark, and there were no customers - neither anyone who wanted to drink nor a client.

   "Because you came to ask three times." Under the shadow of the oil lamp, Hades' face behind the counter was gloomy. "No money."

   He bites down the accent, adding syllable by syllable.

   "Hopefully this isn't the third time."

  Lu Li walked to the counter and sat down, straight to the point: "I haven't saved enough 1,000 shillings."

   Haders' enthusiasm was fading at a rate visible to the naked eye, manifested as his outstretched arms fell and rested on the counter.

"I do not know anything."

  Lu Li ignored Hades' coldness: "The thousand shillings will be yours sooner or later. And the farther I walk in the exorcist, the more good it will be for you, right?"

   Hades sneered, and the golden light flashed from his mouth: "Why do you think that the rise of a peer will benefit me?"

  Lu Li's dark eyes reflected the flame of the oil lamp, and said calmly, "Because that fellow has a lot of questions in his heart, it just so happens that...you know a lot."

   "Rich people tend to be more stingy, they refuse to be kind and do things that don't get the slightest benefit."

   "You know what, I met other exorcists."

   "Oh? They're willing to tell you this and for a lower price than me?"

   "No, I just asked about the normal price of exorcism guns."

  “…”

Hades was silent for a moment, then suddenly showed an exaggerated smile of joy, and said enthusiastically: "Oh, look who this handsome man is, our new star of exorcism, Your Excellency Lu Li! Your patronage is my honor, and I will definitely know everything. , is inexhaustible.”

   "That's good. Hopefully next time we can go straight to the point and save you and me time."

  Lu Li ignored Hades's flamboyant behavior and asked directly, "Where will the ghost go after death?"

   Hades also quickly put away his false enthusiasm and replied, "I don't know either. I didn't lie on purpose. Most exorcists don't know where the ghosts are, maybe the top exorcists will know."

   "Slayer?"

  Lu Li was aware of the change in words.

   Exorcism and exorcism are two different meanings.

   "Literally, you can think of it as an upgraded version of the exorcist that can remove ghosts rather than exorcise them."

   Clear the ghosts...

  Lu moved slightly in the heart, does this mean that he is already a demon slayer? But is it really that simple...

"Of course it's not as simple as you think." Hades noticed Lu Li's expression, shrugged his shoulders and said: "The premise of becoming a demon slayer is that you can deal with a ghost at the level of resentment. If you do it, even if You don't need to advertise the whole exorcism world to spread your name."

   "The exorcist's special means of communication?"

"uh-huh."

   "Can I know?"

   "This question is worth 200 shillings. A friendly reminder, don't try to ask other exorcists, they are not generous enough to tell secrets to new people casually. You might even get beaten up if you have a bad temper."

   "How many slayers are there in Belfast?"

   "No more and no less."

   "Is there any other level above the Demon Slayer? Does that level need to have the ability to deal with evil spirits?"

   Haders sneered, not knowing which of Lu Li's questions, or both.

   "I don't know the first question, but the second question is easy to answer."

   Hades leaned forward and leaned closer to Lu Li, the drooping eyebrows and the oil lamp beside him made him a little more ruthless.

  He generally expresses his words in this way, which is important and dangerous.

   A low voice sounded slowly.

"Evil spirits will not die. What they appear in our world is just a projection. No matter how much they do, it is impossible to hurt their true body. Even if their projections are broken up in some way, they will still be there. Reappears after a period of time. The speed of this reappearance depends on their likes and dislikes, it may be a long time, or a short time. So if you encounter an evil spirit, run as far as you can, don't try to solve it ."

   "Is there really no solution?"

   "Maybe there is a way, but I don't know."

   "What if you can't escape?"

   "Hope that the evil spirit can communicate, or that it has a strong sense of 'ceremony' - it will make you live longer."

   "Sounds really bad." Lu Li replied.

   Hades grinned, but no longer had that upstart temperament. There was an indescribable bitterness and an imperceptible fear hidden in his smile, and he sighed softly.

   "Who's to say no, we exorcists may have one more choice than ordinary people to face ghosts, but it also means... we have to face that horror head-on."

   "Ignorance is a blessing."
