Bizarre Detective Agency

Chapter 997: Sixty-four. The last floor

   Chapter 997 Sixty-four. The last floor

   is like a similar surface. The senior grades were dark and cold, damp and gloomy, and the dark corridors like an ant's nest seemed like a maze that could not be escaped in a lifetime.

   The gatekeeper stopped at the edge of the dark passage and retreated to the top of the steps.

   They won't set foot in the senior years.

  Lu Li retracted his gaze and calmly fell to Claire who was waiting with an oil lamp on the corridor not far away.

   "Are you sure you don't want to team up with me? The two of us can definitely overwhelm the seniors."

   Along the maze-like corridor, Lu Li followed Claire with a flower pot. Full of energy, she is out of tune with her surroundings. Lu Li is the same, but this kind of change originating from breath cannot be obtained visually.

   "I won't stay too long in the senior year."

  Lu Li is fundamentally different from other students. He doesn't need to complete heavy schoolwork, meet fellow teammates, or pick a mentor. He came to the Giant Tree Academy for the sole purpose of learning to be the master of the cursed title.

  Claire, who got the result from her mother early, regretted: "You will miss a lot of interesting things and the top ten tournament..."

   In fact, Lu Li has missed a lot. It took him only two months to reach his senior year at the three-year Giant Tree Academy.

   "Where's your luggage?"

   "Part of it was sent to the Holy Light Team, and part of the businessman Anthony was sent back to the Land of Light."

   Now wearing a cape, Lu Li is only holding a flowerpot with buds growing.

  Because Lu Li had no intention of forming a team, Claire led him to the hunter, or the lone traveler's residential area. Compared to the team living quarters, this place is more chaotic and worse.

  Lack of gatekeeper management and order, it is difficult for sloppy students who choose to be loners to actively maintain the environment.

  The residential area is like a tavern where drunkards and smokers gather, which is lively and chaotic. Claire finds an unoccupied room for Lu Li. There are no windows inside, and it is cramped like a hotel. Except for the bed, desk, and wardrobe, there is nothing left, and it has not been cleaned.

   "A sequence of potions to clean the room."

   A figure approached the hesitant Claire in front of the door and offered to make an offer.

   "No—" Claire shut up in time and looked at Lu Li.

"Can."

   Students who have attracted business are happy to approach. Soon, his expression turned amazed, staring at the outline of the cloak that filled the air with comfort.

   "Boy, remember the rules of the senior year, don't look around and snoop on secrets."

  Claire whispers threats.

   The student returned to his senses, entered the room, and prepared to take out the broom and clean bedding in his backpack. Apparently, his part-time job as a sweeper is not short.

   It may seem incomprehensible for a senior of Giant Tree Academy to be a sweeper, and they can easily get a well-paying job and inner city status even if they leave Giant Tree Academy without graduating. However, there is no way to clear the room outside to harvest a sequence potion.

  Students neatly cleaned up the **** under the bed and the cabinet, then wiped the dust off the tabletop with a rag, and waited for the dust to settle and put on a new mattress.

   It only took a few minutes to clear the room, and the students went back to the corridor and greedily stayed beside Lu Li. Before Lu Li paid the payment, he gently leaned over respectfully: "Free, it's my honor to be able to clean your room for you."

   "He seems to recognize you."

   Watching the students go away, Chris entered the room to check carefully.

  Because of Lu Li's identity, people naturally form a prejudice against him.

   Most of the time, prejudice and delusion are wrong, but this time, because of some coincidence, students are pointed to the correct answer.

   When Lu Li put down the flowerpot on the desk and stroked his hood, Claire asked, "Would you like to watch a performance prepared for you first?"

   "Prepare for me?"

  …

   is like the abyss of the deep sea. Figures in cloaks and uniforms pass by the corridor, holding fluorite or oil lamps, like a ferocious fish that devours people.

   This atmosphere to some extent reflects the uniqueness of the lone traveler's residential area: a dark and solemn church and a lively and noisy tavern.

   Follow the looming crowd through the arch.

   "We're here," Claire said.

   In the center of the auditorium, a duel was going on, and dozens of students were sparsely watching from the sidelines.

   The opponent is not a student. The middle-aged man plays cat and mouse with his opponent: a senior.

   "You forgot what to do."

   The student who stretched out his stomach stagnates, thinking confusedly about what he had forgotten, until he closed his stomach and bit his palm, and he woke up in pain.

   "You forget who I am."

   A new whisper echoed.

   "Who are you?" The slightly sober student was as drunk as a drunkard, and looked around blankly: "Why am I in the arena?"

   "This is your home."

  The arena seems to change, familiar and warm. The student gradually relaxed and looked at the middle-aged man strangely: "Who are you...? Why are you in my home."

   "I am your father."

   The unfamiliar man in front of him gradually made the students feel familiar, and the family affection from blood made him impulsive: "Father..."

   In a burst of laughter on the sidelines, the middle-aged man waved his palms to disperse the obscure power formed by language. The student regained consciousness, showing embarrassment—

  Lu Li is able to recognize the source of power: the power of the blind idiot pantheon, and the skills of divination.

   "A divination tutor...I can't say names. Divination is more sensitive to someone calling names." The arch on the edge of the arena, Claire said.

   On the duel arena, the fortune-telling tutor looked around the field and said, "I am Aldous Berg, the fortune-telling tutor—"

   "Usually students exchange duels here, and the appearance of a tutor may only be to recruit students, he is coming for you."

  Senior grades have a unique tutor system. In addition to teaching as professors, tutors recruit students to work as assistants or apprentices. Students gain experience and grow. Mentors can develop their own strength.

   As Claire said, Aldous Berg then began to make conditions for recruiting students.

   Because the number of tutors is limited, and not all tutors like to teach students, many students who do not have tutors are motivated.

   "But don't worry. You've been branded as a mother. Others who dare to recruit will only blow their heads... unless you actively seek out a mentor."

   Of course Lu Li wouldn't do that. As the deputy dean, Professor Chris is enough to be a shelter to shield him from many troubles.

   Leaving the arena, Claire sent Lu Li back to the room, and left reluctantly after being rejected again.

   In the next few days, Lu Li will take the room as the center, gradually explore outwards, familiarize himself with the life of the seniors, and get used to the real world after the Giant Tree Academy is no longer sheltered.

   Lu Li had difficulty hiding his identity. In other words, as long as you get close to him, you can feel the surging vitality, and then guess Lu Li's identity through "prejudice".

   At the same time, Lu Li began to prepare for the final prerequisite: Mysticism level 7.

   Compared with the previous 6-level trials, the 7th-level trials dedicated to senior grades are somewhat different——

  It enters a new field.
