Chapter 154 Sixty-nine. Sanity test

   The next morning was still cloudy and rainy.

   It was not as cold as yesterday, but it was not too cold. The people on the street had an extra coat on them.

   The order on the streets was restored to the past, only a few collapsed wooden houses and the depressed expressions of the residents silently told what happened before.

  Anna stayed in the detective agency, while Lu Li went out alone to the coastal streets.

  The rain was mixed with the sea breeze. Standing in front of the old Pique Laundry, which still had no door, Lu Li stepped into it.

   The noise of chatting came into my ears, the tables and chairs were as lively as a tavern, and nearby residents gathered to chat and wait for their clothes to be washed.

  Old Pique came over from behind the counter, chatted with the residents who passed by, and came to Lu Li to let him follow.

  Lu Li followed Old Pique to a darker corner of the hall, pulled out the chair and sat in, motioning Lu Li to sit opposite.

"right here?"

"right here."

   "They won't hear?"

   "They won't hear."

   Yesterday's conversation seemed to be on a different side, with the same meaning. Every time Lu Li asked, it seemed like he wanted to confirm something.

   Standing quietly for a few seconds, Lu Li sat in the seat in the corner under the gaze of Old Pique.

  Here you can see the whole store.

   "What would you like to drink?" asked old Pique with his arms on the table.

"Need not."

   "My treat."

   "A hot drink."

   "Wait a minute." Old Pique got up and walked to the counter.

  Lu Li thought that there would be a sanity tester at this time, until Old Pique came back with two cups of hot coffee.

   "No doubt, it is indeed me."

  Lu Li didn't show any emotion, but Old Peak still guessed what Lu Li was thinking. He pushed a cup of hot coffee in front of Lu Li, and another in front of the empty seat next to him: "Many exorcists who come to test for the first time will doubt it, this is normal."

  Lu Li's sight was withdrawn from the dark and crowded shop, and landed on the vacant seat beside Old Pique.

  A palm covered with thick calluses stretched out and held the back of the chair, pulled out the chair and sat down, picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip: "Evil...Aren't you willing to put sucrose?"

   This old man with dangling eyes and a hot-tempered seems to have a good relationship with old Pique.

  Old Pique shrugged: "I'm confused, this cup of yours is his. Oh, I just want to see other expressions on your face, you won't blame me?"

   Lu Li was silent.

   "It has a personality." The old man laughed, sitting on his side with his arms on the back of the chair.

"It's so prudent... Maybe you can live longer than me." Old Pique didn't know whether to praise or sarcastically muttered, and said to Lu Li, "I'm in charge of asking questions, you're in charge of answering, he's in charge of grading, do you have any other questions? ?"

   Rating? Is this old man related to evil spirits?

   "Let's start." Lu Li's words were still brief.

  Old Pique didn't care about Lu Li's attitude, he coughed lightly and said, "You have to make sure your answer is accurate. If you're not sure, say you're not sure."

"Can."

  Old Pique stared at Lu Li and asked the first question in the buzzing shop.

   "Do you think the world is getting worse?"

   An indescribable and obscure aura pervaded the table, gloom, sadness, and fear seemed to be attracted by the aura and emerged from the deepest part of my heart.

  Lu Li realized that the consciousness of evil spirits had already appeared. It is affecting itself, and it is only affecting itself.

  In the eyes of ordinary people, this is just some ordinary problems, and it is a bit strange at best.

"Yes."

   Silence for a few seconds to feel the obscurity, Lu Li replied.

   "Wow." The old man's mouth moved exaggeratedly, but no sound came out.

   "When faced with those weird and grotesque things, are you afraid?"

  Lu Li replied calmly, "No."

  The old man's eyes gradually became weird, and the old Pique asked the third question: "Will you do anything to survive?"

"Won't."

   "You and a stranger are on a leaky wooden boat in the deep sea. The wooden boat can only carry the weight of one person. In order to survive, will you push that person down?"

   Lu Li's brows furrowed indiscernibly, but he still replied, "No."

   This question makes the whole session weird. The previous two questions were related to sanity, but the third question became a kind of psychological test.

  Although Sanity and Psychology are related, they are only related.

   "You and an enemy are on a leaky wooden boat in the deep sea. The wooden boat can only carry the weight of one person. In order to survive, will you push that person down?"

   Old Peak's fourth question just changed characters.

   "Yes." Lu Li answered directly.

   This question may have many preconditions, such as the enemy is a good person, or the place where the wooden boat leaks is blocked. But when answering questions, Lu Li would not take these into account, making the answer ambiguous.

   replied without hesitation.

   "You and a dog are on a leaky wooden boat in the deep sea. The wooden boat can only carry the weight of one person. In order to survive, will you drop the dog?"

"Won't."

  The old man who had been silent all the time suddenly interjected: "That might make you drown."

  Lu Li's indifferent black eyes looked at the old man: "I can't decide other people's lives."

  The old man grinned: "That enemy was pushed down by you."

   "He has a grudge against me, doesn't he?" Lu Li replied.

  The old man was speechless, and the old Pique seemed to smile: "The next question is you and your good friend, but I don't think I need to ask."

   will have the greatest degree of kindness towards strangers, let alone close ones.

   "Will you hurt a ghost that can't hurt people?" Old Pique read the sixth question, and then looked at Lu Li as if he knew the answer long ago.

"Won't."

   Lu Li's answer was not what he expected. After all, he saw a ghost following Lu Li last night.

   On the contrary, the leisurely old man next to him sat up straight and widened his eyes as if he had heard something incredible.

  Old Pique continued: "The next three questions are similar. Let me ask you together: Will you harm evil spirits, evil gods, and weirdos that won't hurt people?"

"what is that?"

   Except for the last one, the first two Lu Li had no contact or understanding at all. And the only weirdness you know may be that the weirdness you have in mind is not the same kind.

  Old Peake said: "I thought you knew, then go-"

   "These are the four weird systems that humans have sorted out."

  The old man suddenly took over the words and explained Lu Li's confusion: "The slayers at that time divided the frequently-occurring strange beings into four systems: the evil spirit system, the evil **** system, the evil spirit system, and the weird system."

   "So boy, if they don't hurt people, will you hurt them?"
