Chapter 309 Night Detective

The night is already deep, and the faint autumn cold is gathering from all directions. In the distant streets, only dim street lights are flickering on and off, and intermittent music mixed with other unclear sounds are floating in the night wind, reaching the ears. There are only a few hallucinatory short syllables left in it. In this old city far away from the city center, time seems to have forgotten the flow, and there is a kind of silence and desolation everywhere from twenty or thirty years ago.

The sky near the city is not pure. Although it is close to twelve o'clock, under the everlasting city lights, the dark sky still only has a few cold stars twinkling like innocent passers-by, together with the not-so-perfect wheel. The moon also dimmed like dust.

And in this night, two black figures were nimbly approaching the dilapidated campus wall.

"I didn't expect you to offer to come with me."

Standing outside the tall fence surrounded by barbed wire, I moved my wrists and ankles and said to the little figure next to me. The latter shrugged like an adult and responded: "The main reason is that you came out alone. It's so pitiful that I have no choice but to accompany my strange uncle..."

This pseudo-loli...can really hit the mark with words and arouse the greatest anger from others.

The investigation during the day did not yield much. In fact, most of the information we heard from Liu Fan were facts that we had already mastered through investigators. The actions in the afternoon were actually only "confirmed with the client in person". "Situation" means nothing more. To really find out the situation, we still need to take action ourselves.

Well, in fact, as long as a few commanders or higher-level agents are sent over, the problem should be solved. But to be honest, this campus supernatural incident really aroused my curiosity. If such an interesting thing is not mixed with... I always feel that the loss is huge. I must not have been infected with some incurable disease by Lin Xue, that troublesome aggregation... This kind of dangerous mentality of asking for trouble should not belong to a dead house who is just waiting to die. said...

Lilina next to her suddenly muttered: "I always feel that there is something more dangerous than viruses and full of depravity going on in your mind. If you get too close, you will be corrupted into a bunch of walking zombies that are gradually growing hair... …”

By the way, psychology shouldn’t study such high-end things as mind reading, right?

Damn, this place is really desolate.

I looked at the shadows of the dark buildings around me and the scattered lights in the dark shadows, and sighed again in my heart.

Originally, Qian Qian and her elder sister were very interested in exploring the ghost campus at twelve o'clock at night. However, both girls have very regular schedules. Unless necessary, they will definitely yawn after ten o'clock in the evening. For several days, several children were also strictly ordered by their elder sisters, "Children must go to bed on time before ten o'clock." Even the most powerful iceberg Pandora could only obey the order unconditionally. As a result, due to various reasons, late at night The only ones who came to look for ghosts were the hot-blooded person myself and a certain fake lolita who happened to take advantage of onee-sama's system.

There was a sound of flapping wings in the sky. I raised my head and saw a black shadow quickly crossing the night sky.

Well, there is also a certain ghost.

It is really difficult for Anweina to leave the house. It may be related to the memory of her own death. This well-behaved but occasionally quite stubborn ghost has a huge fear of things "outside the home". Every time Any attempt to get the other person to leave the house and go out for a walk will fail when the latter cries out in tears while holding on to the door frame. Until now, our only result is to let Anweina take the form of a crow in the middle of the night when there is no one around. Just going out...and it has to be with me.

"Uh-huh..." Lilina suddenly opened her mouth wide and yawned loudly. Then she rubbed her eyes and said, "I'm a little sleepy. Let's end the action quickly and go back - children should get enough sleep."

"I don't know who it was that wanted to follow me for nothing, and even used the invincible reason like 'A loli with an adult heart is not a loli' to argue with my sister for a long time."

"As a qualified person who has returned from time travel, you must always keep in mind the rule of doing everything possible to obtain the greatest benefit for yourself...ah, it hurts!"

Lilina rubbed the corners of her eyes and said such immoral words without any shame, so she was accurately KO'd by my hand.

"I haven't said anything yet. Why are you so interested in following me this time?"

This is a question that puzzles me. Although Lilina claims to join us, the most powerful abnormal human group in history (this title should be ignored...), in fact, this guy has never Despite being an employee, she actually took the initiative to follow me out to investigate the situation today. This is really abnormal.

Facing my inquiry, Lilina was silent for a moment, then suddenly shrugged and said in a calm tone: "I went to school here."

I was instantly embarrassed.

Lilina's memories of her past life have basically become a default taboo.

"...Ah, you went to high school here. I never thought that a genius psychology graduate student would also have a gray high school life...ah...haha..."

"This way of diverting attention really suits your idiotic personality, but...thank you anyway."

"Pullingleng..."

A sound of flapping wings came from above us, and then a big black crow landed lightly on my shoulder. Its sharp beak reached to my ear, and the sound it made was ethereal and soft. A girl’s voice said: “Master, you can go in.”

"Work has started - Lilina, be careful, this is no joke."

"I know -" the little girl drawled, and then several light blue runes suddenly flashed under her feet. With the release of anti-gravity magic, Lilina jumped up to three meters lightly and deftly. The high wall, "After all, she is also a priestess blessed by the god himself, and after such a long time, she is almost familiar with this body that contains divine power. A little magic can still be released... Wow. !”

Can I trouble you not to fall back so neatly after saying the above words with confidence?

Looking at Lilina who had just jumped up the wall and landed neatly at my feet with mosquito coils in her eyes, I felt cold sweat on my forehead.

"Well, first of all, it's over there in the laboratory building!"

With a cry, Lilina, who was lying on the ground looking like a corpse a second ago, jumped up without warning, pointed her hand forward, and announced this with high spirits.

Hey Hey hey! By the way, you recovered too quickly! After falling from a three-meter-high wall, at least you gave me a normal recovery process! Also, your finger must be pointing in the wrong direction now, right? In other words, you fell back outside instead of inside the wall!

Thirty minutes later, our pair, estimated to be the most unprofessional stealth team in history, finally arrived at the experimental building that we had missed four times in a row after getting lost, lost, lost, and lost. A beam of light illuminated the three characters "Experimental Building" in a striking way, making the two of them burst into tears.

Speaking of which, Anweina, the crow who acted as a scout, was of no use at all!

"I'm sorry, Master," a certain ghost lay on my shoulder and apologized sincerely, "The perspective from the sky is different from that from below. I didn't see these three big characters..."

"It looks like nothing unusual."

Lilina trotted to the outer wall of the laboratory building, hopping on her feet to observe the movement on the other side of the window, and talking to herself.

"Report to the boss! The corridor is very quiet, there are no lights, and there are no ghosts."

The little girl jumped at the window for a long time, and then ran to me and whispered the report.

Please don't think of yourself as a child. You are almost a year older than me!

"Anweina, go and take a look above."

I raised my shoulders, and the crow version of the ghost maid immediately flew into the sky - then hit the street light and fell back crookedly.

After bouncing on the ground twice, Anweina shook her head, looked at the direction again, and flew into the air.

"Master, this is what I saw."

Anweina's voice sounded in my mind, and then a closer spiritual connection was instantly established, and the unique perspective of a crow was reflected in my left eye.

"Anweina, could you please stop circling?"

The perspective of birds is really weird. After a while, I felt dizzy.

"It does look normal," I shared Anweina's perspective, "Except it's darker than a normal school, Anweina, it flies a little higher."

The vertical field of vision in my eyes climbed again, more information came into my mind through my left eye, and then, I finally discovered something.

"Anweina, descend—to the left, do you see it?"

"I saw it, Master. It was a figure, looking for something on the garbage pile."

"Remain invisible in the sky, Lilina and I will go over and take a look."

After receiving my order, Anweina immediately transformed into an invisible spirit state, while Lilina and I immediately ran towards the large scrapyard located between the experimental building and the dormitory area.
