Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 175 Ninety. Last Question

   "A cup of coffee, add a piece of sugar, not too hot."

  Tesla, whose lips were dry, took off his top hat, revealing curly brown hair, and said to the old Pique next to him.

   "You wouldn't want to sit here and listen to another story, would you?"

   Even if Old Pique wanted to hear it, it was difficult to sit still under such teasing words. He glanced at Tesla unhappily, got up, left his seat, and walked towards the counter.

  Tesla watched Old Pique leave, the smile never disappeared from his face, he looked at Lu Li: "Are you going to ask another question next?"

  Lu Li didn't say nonsense and asked directly, "Are these fictional or real."

   "Both...you'll understand after a while." Tesla's smile became meaningful, answering all Lu Li's questions, he chose to hide this point

   "But you are really cautious..."

  Tesla sighed, he believed that if he gave Lu Li a few more days, he might thoroughly investigate the ruins before entering.

   "I've let go." Lu Li replied.

   "What does it mean to be very open?"

   "Literally." Lu Li and Tesla looked at each other. "The death of me in the story will not affect the real me, so my actions are relatively free."

   "Meaning you could be more cautious?"

"Yes."

  Lu Li is a cautious and bold person. This sounds contradictory, but it's understandable. He will be fully prepared before the action to avoid any unexpected events, and he will not hesitate to enter the ruins and ruined buildings. He would suspect Remy, who was acting weird and hiding secrets several times, but still kept his trust in her at the same time.

   "Maybe you can go further than I thought." Tesla gave Lu Li a comment.

   As I said before, people who are afraid of death will live longer.

   Caution is the same.

   "Let's finish the assessment before old Pique comes back."

   Unconsciously, half an hour passed, and Tesla did not intend to waste time.

   "Anything else?" Lu Li thought the assessment was over.

   "I haven't used this artboard yet."

Tesla knocked on the drawing board on the table: "This is what I prepared in advance. Because we are somewhat similar, I can probably guess what you think, so I prepared this drawing board and plan to finish it after you. After the "Investigator Introductory Test", the final assessment will be conducted, and by the way, I will teach you a truth."

"Although the process and results of the trial are a little different from what I imagined...but it can still be used. You know, it is not enough to be kind, even a very dangerous character. You will have pity, the enemy does not Yes. They're more wicked and indifferent than you think, and your kindness may cost you a tragic death while investigating an incident—"

   That's what Tesla wants to say. As one of the leaders of the Belfast city of the investigator organization, he has met many newcomers who have just joined the investigator, and many of them are compassionate and kind to the weird.

   They often end up badly, and those who survive are changed by tragic encounters.

   This is the fundamental reason why Tesla appreciates Lu Li: kind and cautious. Even though he has encountered a lot of weirdness, he has not abandoned this character.

   "Then next is the last question."

  Tesla slowly turned the drawing board, letting the content on it appear in Lu Li's eyes, and the words continued to ring in his ears.

"You picked up the incident and investigated a town that was destroyed. When you entered the town and walked along the dilapidated streets, you suddenly saw a little girl with a doll standing in the middle of the intersection ahead, four terrifying monsters. Surround yourself with the little girl. Because the situation is critical, you have to take action. Fortunately, you are strong enough to kill these monsters with one blow, but the bad thing is that these monsters also hide people who can easily kill you. Existence. You must eliminate the hidden danger within three attacks to ensure your own safety. You pick up the psychic gun and plan to kill one of the monsters first."

The    drawing board is full of scribbled graffiti, the dilapidated ruins on both sides of the street, and in the middle of the fork, a little girl with two ponytails is holding a doll, surrounded by four huge terrifying monsters.

   The first one has a huge body, short legs, and a hideous face, which looks a bit like a monster in a trial. The second one looks like a grass that has expanded several times, with more than a dozen eyes crowded behind the grass. The third is a strange humanoid creature with gills and webbed feet, holding a harpoon, like a fish and a frog. The fourth is just a twisted ghost.

   "Remember, you can only shoot, not communicate."

   This question tests Lu Li's observation ability and whether Lu Li will attack monsters.

   Although it's just a test question, it doesn't really kill the monsters.

  Lu Li quickly made a choice, targeting the twisted ghost.

  Tesla commented: "Ghost? A good choice. This kind of intangible existence is often capable of weird, maybe it can kill you easily. You still have two shooting opportunities."

  Lu Li gave the huge grass a second chance to kill.

   "Unknown monster? Well, the unknown often means danger, you don't know what kind of attack it has. You have one left."

   Lu Li stretched out his hand again and pointed to the middle of the drawing board - the little girl.

   "You gave the last chance to kill... the little girl?" Tesla couldn't maintain his grace and was surprised. "Am I wrong?"

   "No." Lu Li replied calmly.

   "Why did you kill her, she's just an ordinary little girl."

   "Ordinary little girls don't walk around with dolls in ruined towns."

   "Maybe she was just looking for relatives who were crushed under the ruins."

   "I don't see fear in her face."

   "Maybe I didn't draw it well."

   rustling…

   "Okay, I added an emoji."

   "Maybe it's fake."

   "...you need a more reasonable excuse to convince me. Otherwise your final grade may be deducted some points."

   "These four monsters are not of the same type, and their moving speeds are different, but they surround the little girl at the same time. They didn't attack each other, nor did they attack the little girl. It is enough to show that they are the little girl's subordinates, or the servants of the family."

   "...why do you have these two left?"

   "Because you can only hit three times."

   "I'm asking why you put these two last."

   "It has short legs, which means it's not fast enough to catch up to me. The other one has a harpoon. Knowing how to use tools means having intelligence and maybe communicating."

   sounds plausible.

  Tesla really can't find an excuse to refute.

   "So what is the correct answer?" Lu Li asked.

  Tesla looked at Lu Li strangely, feeling that he couldn't see through the young man in front of him.

   "There is no correct answer, this is just a test of the observation ability of the person being tested. But I think your answer may give this question a correct answer from now on."
