Chapter 1017
At 3:30 pm, the first group of people who needed to be checked were taken to the auditorium (banquet hall) on the first floor.
He and Professor Kazer, as the main force responsible for the check, sat in the teacher's seat, with Professor Lily and Sister Kallen as assistants.
The staff and merchants who were taken to the auditorium were still confused at this time, and Professor Sylph did not reveal any information to them.
For this group of people, Professor Dake and Professor Kazer used the simplest and fastest method of checking.
They placed the complete "brain fluid demon" in the middle of the table, and then placed a desk in front of each of them, and then let Professor Lily control the goblin to put the pre-printed answer sheet on the desk, and wait until someone finished answering and then replace it with another one, and repeat this process.
Those who needed to be checked lined up in two rows behind the two desks, and sat down one by one to answer the questions.
In this way, Professor Dake and Professor Kazer did not need to waste their breath, nor did they have to worry about the leakage of the answers.
Although it didn't matter whether it was leaked or not, they needed to show a message to the outside world.
Let those people mistakenly think that they are conducting an investigation by answering questions, and not anything else.
Especially, they cannot let people know that they have the ability of "reading minds"!
...
The investigation went smoothly.
The first question that Professor Dark and Kazel wrote on the answer sheet was: "What is the creature on the table?"
"Brain Fluid Demon" was a term that countless people feared during the war, but it quickly disappeared after the war.
And there are only a handful of people who have actually seen the "Brain Fluid Demon" in person.
The vast majority of people, including warriors who have faced the demons implanted with "Brain Fluid Demon", think that it should be as ugly as a devil.
And no matter what, they would never have thought that the "jellyfish" on the table, which is as pure as water, would be the body of the "Brain Fluid Demon".
The merchants in Traveler Street and the general staff of the academy rarely have enough knowledge to have an understanding of it.
Therefore, there are almost no people who can answer this first question.
- But this has little to do with this investigation.
The other party is a person who can cultivate "brain fluid demons". It is not an exaggeration to regard him as a researcher who has special research on the brain.
For this kind of people, memory manipulation is probably just a trick.
He is very likely to have anticipated that he would work on his own memory after this investigation and completely seal the memory of "brain fluid demons".
In this way, his answer will be no different from that of ordinary people.
What Dak and Professor Kazel need to do is to use the ability of "reading minds" to find flaws in the surface of their thoughts while they are answering questions!
Of course, to be precise, it is the "Goddess of the Heart's Eyes" and Professor Kazel.
…
Whether it is the "brain fluid demon" on the table or the questions on the answer sheet, they only exist to elicit thoughts.
Dak quickly gave up his position to the "Goddess of the Heart's Eyes".
And in order to be more solemn, he changed the skin of the "Goddess of the Heart's Eyes" into an older version.
Only half an hour later, the results of the first batch of investigations came out.
Except for a few people including Eve, no one knew the "brain fluid demon".
There are quite a few people who know the name "Fern Morse", but when they mention him, these people don't have any special thoughts in their minds.
"It's impossible to be 100% sure that they have nothing to do with the "brain fluid demon", but they can be sent back first." Professor Kazel concluded.
After the investigation, Dak took the opportunity to find Eve, made an appointment with her, and let her go.
Then, the professors who were notified also came one by one.
In fact, most of the professors at St. Marian College rarely go out except for teaching.
They rely on the rich resources of St. Marian College and are obsessed with research all day long.
And this time, in order to conduct a comprehensive investigation, Professor Sylph called all the professors who could be reached.
And during the investigation, she watched the whole process.
Once a professor reveals his feet and suddenly hurts people, she will immediately suppress him!
Dak sat next to the "Goddess of the Heart's Eye", replenishing her magic while observing the professors present.
There were many professors whose names he couldn't even name, but each one was more powerful than the other.
For these professors, simple answer sheets were no longer effective.
Professor Kazel set up a one-way barrier around the teacher's seat, so that people outside the barrier could not see or hear, but people inside the barrier were not affected at all.
Then Professor Lily controlled the goblins to shuttle freely around the edge of the barrier and ushered in the people waiting in line one by one.
Professor Dak and Professor Kazel asked them verbal questions inside the barrier.
But after just a few people, they ran into trouble.
"Professor Holder Bode, can you open up your brain a little bit?"
Facing the professor of "magic language" - Holder Bode, Dak said helplessly.
The ability of "mind's eye" is not impossible to defend.
It's just that the means required for defense are relatively rare, and the level of the magician is extremely high.
And in daily life, few people will guard their brains tightly.
But unfortunately, Professor Bode in front of him is one of them!
The "goddess of the mind's eye" could not see through his mind at all.
And since she could not see through it, she could not investigate it.
Dak had no choice but to ask him to open his brain area on his own.
But Professor Holder Bode immediately frowned and said, "Why?"
Professor Holder Bode has naturally curly dark brown hair as always. The skin on his face is slightly dry, his nose is as prominent as an aquiline, and his eyes are slightly sinister.
When he asked aloud, his tone was as sharp as a knife.
But Dak had become accustomed to his tone, and immediately said: "Cooperate with the investigation."
Professor Holder Bode raised his eyebrows and said, "Although I can roughly guess the reason, I'm sorry, but I can't let people peep into my brain."
Dak tried his best to persuade: "Professor, you are only temporarily open. I will not pry into your other thoughts."
But Professor Holder Bode still shook his head and said: "Impossible."
Dark felt helpless and had no choice but to turn to Professor Kazel for help.
But after Professor Kazel checked out a professor, he immediately said: "Forget it about Bode, it won't be him."
Dark was startled for a moment, then turned to look at Professor Silver.
It wasn't until Professor Silver nodded that he said to Professor Holder Bode: "In that case, I will only ask a simple question here. Professor Bode, do you know Fern Morse?"
"Of course I know." Professor Bode said directly, "Fern Morse, a fifth-year student in the House of Fools, is a clown."
Duck blinked and said, "Professor, it's not good to say that about a student."
But Professor Holder Bode said indifferently: "He is not my student."
Dark said, "Okay, Professor. Get out of here, please. Next."
After Professor Holder Bode left, the next professor was invited in by the goblin.
As soon as Duck asked, he knew the professor's name, and then asked him questions as planned.
Although this professor was a bit stubborn, he was not as difficult as Professor Holder Bode. Duck quickly completed his investigation, and then came the next one.
Since it takes a relatively long time to investigate each professor, the entire process progresses very slowly.
After that, Duck also met Professor Ryan Harkes.
As a second-year history of magic professor who has officially joined the job, Professor Ryan Hax has fully adapted to the environment.
Including the teaching style, he is also adapting quickly. Recently, there has been a trend of moving closer to Professor Didi.
After a brief conversation with him, Dark asked casually: "Professor Hax, your purpose of joining Saint Marian has not been achieved yet?"
"Purpose? What purpose?" Professor Ryan Hax asked with a puzzled look.
Dak looked up at him and said, "Isn't it re-employment?"
"Oh, that's what you're talking about!" Professor Ryan Hakes suddenly realized, "That was just last year's goal. I already have a new goal this year."
Duck asked curiously: "What goal?"
Professor Ryan Hakes turned his head to look at Professor Kazel and said, "Kazel said I have some magical talent."
Dark was moved in his heart and said, "Professor Hux, do you have to learn magic from scratch?"
Professor Ryan Hakes suddenly said with some distress: "Yes. I know it is difficult, but there is always hope, isn't it? Isn't St. Marian College always known as a place of miracles? I hope miracles will favor me."
Duck nodded and said: "Come on, professor! Your problem is over. Please leave from over there."
After Professor Ryan Hax left, Dark immediately turned to look at the "Goddess of the Heart's Eyes".
However, the "goddess of the mind's eye" just shook her head and said: "His words and deeds are exactly the same as his thoughts, but this is very strange. Human beings' thoughts are always slightly different from their words and deeds, because human beings are making decisions all the time."
Dark pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Professor Ryan Hacks may have other ideas, but he is not a researcher, and the probability of being related to the "Cerebral Fluid Demon" is low. Let's ignore it for now."
Then the next professor walked into the barrier.
It was an arithmetic professor.
…
The entire investigation process lasted until six o'clock in the evening.
Dark directly ate with Professor Kazel and others in the auditorium and had a quick discussion.
Most of the professors were very cooperative, and the few who were tough like Professor Holder Bode also received the guarantee of several professors.
The end result was a relief.
"As long as the "cultivator" is not a professor, the situation is not bad." Professor Kazel analyzed, "As for students, the threat they can pose is limited after all. Maybe this "brain fluid demon" is just a student who is curious. product of the following.”
Dark said: "But no normal student would implant the "Brain Fluid Demon" into a classmate out of curiosity."
Professor Kazel laughed and said: "In short, since the target has been circled among the students, then based on this analysis, in fact, the students who have the ability to implant the "Cerebral Fluid Demon" into the brain of Vern Morse are not A lot. We can narrow it down further..."
Dak shook his head and said: "No one can ensure that it is not a first-year student. Professor, you should know that bringing down a fifth-year student actually only requires a sleeping potion."
"That's right." Professor Kazel said, "Then I can only continue to work hard for you."
Duck said; "It's nothing."
Professor Silver raised his head at this time and said: "I have already asked someone to make arrangements. How about checking on the students in the Knights Academy tonight?"
Professor Kazel said: "It's not a big problem. After all, Lily caught the "brain fluid demon" near the tower of the Knights Academy. The possibility that the "cultivator" is a student of the Knights Academy is not low."
Professor Silver said: "Considering that Vern Morse is a student of the House of Fools, the second choice should be the House of Fools. Then there is the more likely student of the House of Magic, and finally the House of Nobles.
That's basically it. I hope we can indeed find the "cultivator". I don't want to see anyone else have "cerebral fluid demon" implanted in their brains. "
After hearing this, Dak asked curiously: "Professor, what should we do if we find a "cultivator"?"
Professor Silver couldn't help but frown.
Her first thought was of course to fire the "cultivator".
But considering that the other party can cultivate a life like "Brain Fluid Demon" from scratch, he must have strong attainments in this area. If he is a plastic person...
"Principal Arte will make a decision on this matter."
The sternness on the surface is just a cover-up, but Professor Sylph is actually a gentle person at heart.
She continued: "Depending on the specific circumstances, different decisions may be made. If it is really bad, we do not rule out the possibility of taking it to court."
Duck nodded slightly and thought carefully.
He is actually very interested in the information about the "Cerebral Fluid Demon".
Because this thing always gave him a feeling very similar to the "Magic Brain Dropper".
And his "Magic Brain Dropper" has gradually become different.
