Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 171 Eighty-six. Investigator Mock Incident Five

   "Your pockets are full of stones, and that's when they come into play. Every distance you go, you throw a stone behind you, attracting what might be in the dark..."

  Tesla didn't say "next", meaning that it's not yet the turn of Operation Luli. But Lu Li still said at this moment, "I threw the stone so that his sister could hear it."

   "...And, let his sister hear. If she is still alive, she has not eaten for more than ten days, and it is easy to miss the rescue when she is weak."

"You kept the frequency of throwing stones, and walked all the way along the right wall in the dark ruins. The palms that touched the wall were cold and numb, and the stones in your pockets began to fall. You have forgotten how many times you have turned. Fortunately, you always Lean to the right so that you won't get lost in the ruins. You can turn your head back anytime you want."

"Boundless darkness hits your face, and your eyes adjusted to the darkness still can't see anything. This absolute darkness and stillness starts to panic and make you unable to keep your composure, 'a small amount of inner strength disappears'. You start to run wild, maybe yourself It's not time to explore any further. The investigator incident task is almost completed, and I can go back the same way. As long as I tell the villagers that his sister has disappeared, he will understand him. After all, nearly half a month has passed. Thinking of this, you Decide-"

  Lu Li: "Calm yourself."

"Your palm touched the raised stone on the wall, a tingling pain. You suddenly woke up, recalling the thought just now - that kind of withdrawal shouldn't have happened to you. You realize that your Sanity points have been reduced by exploring the ruins. Down to a somewhat bad level. You need to hurry up."

   "As before, you took a stone out of your pocket and threw it behind you. The sound of the stone bouncing to the ground echoed in the empty passage. Just as you were about to move on, a weak voice sounded out of nowhere."

   "'Is your brother you?' It was a girl's voice, which bounced off the wall, so that you couldn't find the source of the voice, you were surprised and planned to—"

  Lu Li: "Keep silent."

"The strange voice made you vigilant and didn't answer. 'Brother?' The voice sounded again, a little more anxious, but you still couldn't tell the position of the voice. You waited quietly for a while, the voice no longer rang , the surroundings are calm again. Next you will-"

  Lu Li: "Ask who she is."

   "You seem to think that the opposite is not weird, so you can't help breaking the silence and ask: 'Who are you?'"

   "'It's me, brother, I'm Remy...' That voice was a little more surprising, you're going to—"

  Lu Li: "Tell her: The great-grandmother brought the villagers to rescue you."

   "'What are you talking about? Isn't our great-grandmother already um-' the voice stopped abruptly, no longer. You confirmed her identity this way, and you intend to-"

Lu Li: "Tell her: I'm not your brother, I met your brother outside, he escaped from the ruins, but when he wanted to take you out, he found that the entrance to the ruins was occupied by monsters again, he couldn't find a chance to save you, Until I came. He proposed to distract the monster himself, and I came in to find you."

"Perhaps because of sympathy, or because you didn't tell Remy what happened to his brother when it wasn't an explanation, but made up something. 'Do you really know my brother...?' Be careful.

  Lu Li: "Answer yes, then describe her brother's appearance."

   "In order to convince Remy, you described her brother's appearance. This made Remy confirm that you knew her brother, and coughed in excitement: 'Can you take me away...'"

  Lu Li: "Answer: Yes, but before that I have a question. What do you do for a living these ten days?"

"Your inquiry silenced Remy for a moment. '...Bugs.' She replied after a dozen seconds. 'There are worms in the cracks in the floor, I don't know what it is, I'm starving and can only catch these worms Put it in my mouth...they are still moving, I'm afraid they will bite my belly, so I bite them and swallow...then I frantically lick the water droplets on the wall to make the smell go away, I...please... Don't ask any more...'"

   "Remy's voice is very painful, and her spirit is on the verge of collapse. After all, she is only a young girl, and she has been trapped in a strange ruin for more than ten days. Perhaps her sanity has dropped to a very terrifying level."

   "'Come in quickly!' Suddenly, she hurriedly urged, her voice full of anxiety, which made you a little uneasy."

  Lu Li: "Approach her."

"You suppressed your unease and asked her where she was, discerning her voice leaving the wall and walking towards the direction it came from. 'I hear your footsteps', Remy's weak voice sounded in front of you.' Help I, I have no strength at all'"

  Lu Li: "Carry her on her back, covertly **** her body in the process of carrying her."

   Sitting aside, the old Pique, who was immersed in the story, couldn't help raising his palms to applaud.

  Tesla is not so vulgar, he guessed what Lu Li did, and continued to tell the story.

"'I'll carry you,' you said, approached Remi, and pulled her up against the wall. The movement of you carrying her inevitably touched her body, and you suspected that you intentionally touched her body. Much. The girl's soft body is cold with a hint of warmth, except that it is very light, there is nothing unusual, she is indeed a human being."

   "You can also understand the strange weight. After all, she stayed here for more than ten days, relying only on bugs to maintain her life, and she will lose at least ten pounds."

   "'Thank you...' she put her hands on your shoulders and whispered in your ear. 'Never burn a torch,' she added, and you already knew that."

"You walked out of the side room with Remy on your back and walked towards the opposite side according to the position you remembered. After taking a few steps, you started to feel uneasy. Because you should have touched the wall long ago, but your outstretched arm didn't touch anything. …”

   "You started to speed up, but after walking more than ten meters, there was still no end in front of you. You couldn't help but move closer to the side, and finally touched the wall. Your unease became more and more intense, and you found that you couldn't seem to tell the direction..."

   "Remi noticed your strangeness and asked you what happened, and your answer was—"

  Lu Li: "Answer truthfully."

   "You're telling the truth, surprisingly, Remy sighed as if she already knew. 'Is it too late...' she said, and you asked her eagerly what was going on."

"She told you that the passages and rooms in the ruins change positions every so often. This is what she found after walking out of the room the day after her brother left. In fact, she was rescued by you. That side room is no longer the room where she and her brother hid in the first place."
