   Chapter 267 One hundred eighty-two.5000 shillings

  The paper was rolled up and stuffed into the letterbox. The black crow had finished eating. After Lu Li opened the window, it flapped its wings and flew out of the window, blending into the rich night.

  Anna thought this was the end, but she saw Lu Li fishing on the desk again, as if he was holding something, and threw it out the window—

   His eyes fell on Lu Li suspiciously.

   "Another crow you can't see." Lu Li explained.

   After a brief moment of confusion, Anna suddenly remembered that there was something that other people couldn't see.

  Anna called out the object whose name cannot be pronounced by humans: "That door?"

"Um."

   "Hmm... how should we deal with it?" Only then did Anna remember that Lu Li was still in a big trouble.

   "Wait for the reply from the investigator headquarters."

  If the "door" remains the same, Lu Li can last for a long time.

  【When you hear it, they can see you. When you see it, they can touch you. Don't touch them-]

The contents of the diary came to an abrupt end, and the following contents were predictable - he had to be close to the door to retain the only remaining Sanity points, which meant that his range of activities was limited, being touched by the door or belonging to the door, bringing After getting started.

   Lu Li hasn't heard it yet, which means that Lu Li is not affected by the door, it is still trying to find itself, and once it finds Lu Li... Lu Li should hear it.

  Lu Li has no content on Quanxin's diary. First of all, it was written by Bill Eddy when he was on the verge of madness, and secondly, Bill Eddy may not have written the real content in his diary, or he did not know the real content.

   The crow thrown out of the window by Lu Li did not come back and hid in the dark, waiting for the next attack.

   The time has moved silently towards 10 o'clock. Anna lay on the bed for a while and let Lu Li rest after she stopped dreaming of Annie.

   Lu Li did not refuse. But before going to bed, a familiar "duo duo" sound came from outside the window.

  Anna heard it too.

   He opened the window and let the black crow in. Lu Li sat up on the bed, put the coat over his body, and took out the note and unfolded it.

  【Hello Investigator】

  【The content of the [Sound for Help in the Alley] submitted by you has been received, and we have recorded your participation and information provided. The information will usually be reviewed within three days and you will be notified of the result]

   [At the same time, you can choose to follow this event, and we will deliver new content to you when the event is updated. If you want to continue to follow, you can leave this note]

  【Shimfast Investigator Home】

   The local investigator base responded quickly, but the verification took a certain amount of time, and that was already after returning to Belfast.

  Anna held the romance novel she brought over and stayed beside Lu Li, and the night was peaceful. There were no emergencies, and the wraith that was forced away did not come to take revenge.

   The sound of footsteps downstairs woke Lu Li up. She opened her eyes, and under the uncomfortably bright light, Anna lowered her head to read. The clock hand of the alarm clock was only a few hairs away from the number 6.

   Dawn has come.

   Anna, who was sitting behind the desk, realized something, her long eyelashes trembled, she looked up at Lu Li, her eyes curved into a beautiful arc: "Awake?"

"Um."

  Lu Li sat up and Anna opened the curtains at this moment. The window was covered with water marks and mist, and the eastern sky facing him could not see the slightest vigor, and it was raining darkly.

  Anna put out the oil lamp and thought about keeping the electric lamp.

   Sitting up, Lu Li bent over to put on his shoes, ignored the coat beside him, and went out to the bathroom.

  Anna followed him outside the bathroom, looking downstairs from the corridor, where Aunt Mary was preparing breakfast for them.

   After a few minutes, Lu Li returned to the guest room with his hands and cheeks wet. He looked out the window. The sky was brighter than before, but it was still dark.

   The street lights on the street below are no longer on, and the light in the buildings that stretch into the distance has also disappeared by half.

   Visibility outside increases at a slow rate until it is no longer bright. From downstairs came Mary's call, and breakfast was ready.

  Lu Li and Anna went back downstairs. Aunt Mary still prepared a hearty breakfast, including slices of bread, eggs, bacon, and the milk she bought from the street not long ago.

   And 5,000 shillings stacked together.

   It was pushed in front of Lu Li and Anna by Mary.

  Lu Li didn't reach out to pick it up.

  Anna blinked, seeing that Lu Li was not interested in money, she simply picked up the stack of shillings and accepted it instead of Lu Li.

  The smile on Mary's face became stronger: "When are you going back?"

   "We'll go back when we dig out Annie." Anna thought for a while and said.

  Mary was slightly startled: "Are you going back so early?"

   "Hmm! We're going back to Belfast before dark."

   "That's right... the black sky will be very dangerous..." Mary murmured, and smiled again to talk to Anna.

   Probably because Lu Li was here, Anna spoke a little more than when she was in Mary's room yesterday.

  Twenty minutes later, after breakfast, Mary packed the table and went back to her room to change her clothes.

   "We'll return the money to her later." Lu Li said.

   This made Anna unable to understand: "Aren't you very short of money? Why don't you accept it?"

   "Because of favor." Lu Li said to the stunned Anna. "Mary helped us, and if the world collapsed and she was in danger, we had to help her."

   This is the reason why Lu Li began to avoid meeting more people when he realized that the world was getting worse and planned to build a refuge.

   Strangers he can't stand by, let alone acquaintances.

"Well..." Anna was hesitant, but she quickly thought of her own unique solution: "Build the shelter first and then talk about it. And I took over the money. If it really doesn't work, it should be borrowed from Aunt Mary. already."

   Lu Li did not recover, it seems to have come down by default.

  Anna was very happy to be able to persuade Lu Li, but soon, she became sad when she remembered one thing: "If your prediction does happen, what about the people we know? Daisy, Aunt Mary..."

   "We can remind them, as I always do." Lu Li has been subtly changing Tesla's mind.

   "Is that just the way it is?"

"Remember deep-sea stones?" Lu Li asked back, and Anna nodded and continued: "The price of deep-sea stones has been increasing, and some people are buying them in large quantities. I think the three major organizations have realized that the world is becoming dangerous. , is setting out to build a real sanctuary."

   "I'm an investigator and can shelter some people to the shelter."

  Anna breathed a sigh of relief and stopped worrying about her good friends and elders, but she was still a little puzzled: "Then since they are already building a shelter...why do we have to do this alone?"

   "I believe in ourselves more than trusting our own safety on others."

   Lu Li replied, treating everything cold with calmness.

   But Anna cares about another thing.

   He said we…

  Anna felt that her heart that had already cooled down seemed to be beating again.
