Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 578 One hundred and fifty-five. Disguise

  Javier York held his breath and stared at the door nervously, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

   The sofa that was moved to the side exposed the wooden door without any cover, which made Javier York lose his sense of security, even if Lu Li was beside him.

  The sound of footsteps just passed by the door and gradually disappeared.

  Not afraid to relax, Javier York motioned Lu Li to keep quiet again, confirming that his footsteps really left, and then he resumed his breathing and rapid heartbeat.

   "What do you want to ask?" He asked Lu Li like he woke up from a nightmare.

   "I have nothing to ask."

"Oh……"

  Javier York suddenly remembered that Lu Li didn't speak. He listened to the movement in the corridor outside the door and said, "I think you should also have a password so that each other will not admit mistakes, right?"

   "Where's your Sanity counter."

   "What's that... oh this is your secret code, of course..." Gavier York came back to his senses and said hurriedly in embarrassment.

   His condition is not very good. The arrival of Lu Li didn't bring him a sense of security, but instead his sanity was taken away by the footsteps of the "safe house" outside the corridor.

   "Keep calm, don't show your flaws, weirdness won't take the risk to kill you." Lu Li reminded. Gavill York has I'm human written all over his face now.

   "Thank you..." Javier York hurriedly took a deep breath. "I have to adjust my mood for a while... Do you want to stay?"

  Lu Li shook his head, and the deep whisper in his mind told him that it was time to go to the second class.

   Walking out of Gavier York's office, Lu Li glanced into the depths of the corridor where the footsteps disappeared, and returned to the corridor downstairs.

  On the only way to return to the classroom, Lu Li saw Doreen Fry who was returning - she was sitting on the bench by the window and looked at it, as if she was waiting for Lu Li here on purpose.

   Maybe the footsteps heard in Gavier York's office are hers...

  Lu Li approached Doreen Fry, or walked to the other end of the promenade.

   At this moment, a cold and disgusting touch and a sticky squeezing sound suddenly came from under his feet.

   A piece of **** intestines was stepped on by Lu Li, it was obviously not the intestines of an animal... A strange claw grabbed one end of the intestines from the depths of the mouse hole under the wall.

  This shadow creature is trying to pull back the intestines that Lu Li stepped on.

   Not far away, Doreen Fry looked at it, whether it was intentional or just a coincidence.

  Lu Li raised his feet calmly, and waited until the strange hand with a missing claw in the hole grabbed the intestines and retracted, and then continued forward with the horrific chewing sound.

   "I don't dare to go back alone so..." Doreen Fry stood up and said shyly to Lu Li who approached, as if she hadn't seen the scene just now.

  Lu Li nodded lightly, his eyes suddenly fell outside the window, he frowned and stretched his hand out of the window: "Is it raining..."

  Doreen Fry did the same curiously, and together with Lu Li, looked up at the sky shrouded in fog and overcast clouds: "No... Maybe the water has fallen?"

"Maybe."

   Seeing the dead bone sticking out of the window in the Upside Down City, Lu Li calmly retracted his gaze.

  Doreen Fry withdrew her hand, and suddenly said as if she had thought of it inadvertently, "Lu Li, can you contact the other exorcists?"

   "I'm not human." Having gotten the result, Lu Li doesn't need to be ambiguous with Doreen Fry again.

  Doreen Fry was stunned, with obvious disappointment on her cheeks: "You... don't trust me?"

   "I trust you, but you shouldn't trust me."

  Lu Li said, sat on the bench, and stood up suddenly.

  嘭——

   In the muffled sound, Lu Li's body fell back to the bench and his head hung down. Leaving an illusory and transparent soul standing in front of Doreen Fry.

"I am already dead."

   he said to the girl.

The voice of    fell, and Doreen Fry's expression began to change.

   The smile on his face faded like a mottled wallpaper, revealing the real undisguised disappointment and gloom inside, like an evil ghost.

   "What a disappointment..."

   "Doreen Fry" also did not hide his malice towards Lu Li, but the rules of "Paradise" prevented him. Staring at Lu Li's soul resentfully, he whispered and slowly backed away, disappearing into the corner of the corridor with a slight chewing sound.

  Lu Li watched it leave, and the soul returned to the body on the bench. Slowly moving her limbs a few times, she walked in the direction where "Doreen Fry" disappeared.

   Back in the messy and noisy classroom, "Doreen Fry" was still resting on her chin in boredom, but she stopped looking at Lu Li who walked in.

   Instead, the fat student behind the seat was staring at him, and some peeping eyes.

   Soon after we got back to our seats, the second class started.

  Professor is a young woman with a single ponytail - a hairstyle that is not uncommon in Ellen King City, and the uniqueness usually expresses suspicion.

  The fact that the young professor can always be undisturbed by the weird may have something to do with her eyes: her eyes are curved, and most of them are covered. Compared with the curved eyes formed by a smile, it is more like malicious intentions piled up.

  This is a painting class. The young professor, who did not reveal his name, handed out drawing boards and paints, then put a rotten apple on the podium, stopped talking, and stepped aside to let the students play freely.

   Frankly speaking, fresh apples are as rare as rotten ones. Those were fruits grown from the hotbeds that only the upper-class nobles could eat.

   And the rotten fruit is indeed more suitable for the current state of the royal city.

  Lu Li slowly looked around the front. Only less than half of the students picked up the brushes. Most of the students were doing their own things, such as mechanically rubbing their eyeballs. The students who choose to take the brush are not all painting apples, such as "Doreen Fry" on the right, who is drawing a skeleton on the drawing board, which may be a self-portrait——

   Looking back, Lu Li also began to paint on the drawing board.

   At some point, he suddenly felt the hot gaze surrendering to himself, but he looked away from the drawing board and swept around, and the gaze disappeared again until Lu Li focused on the drawing board again.

   This game of hide-and-seek continued several times. Lu Li stopped looking for the source of his sight and drew the outline of the rotten apple on the drawing board.

   Thirty minutes later, the second class ended.

   Next class is in an hour. Because the obscure whispers echoing in the back of his mind reminded Lu Li that it was cafeteria time.

  Free food is always the best.

  Lu Li followed the students in the classroom into the dining hall. On the way, he saw Gavill York with a wry smile. He was blocked by the "crowd" and it was difficult for him to reach Lu Li's side.

   After finally entering the cafeteria and approaching Lu Li, a commotion suddenly broke out among them.

   An exposed human student screamed and was bitten by his "classmate", his struggle was weak and powerless.

  Javier York stopped subconsciously, then saw Lu Li walking towards them, and was suddenly pulled by a figure——
