Chapter 276 Upstairs and Downstairs

"Huachu Psychological Clinic" is not far from the Tianen Group campus, and there is no need for Delphinium to drive to and from it.

After taking the Skytrain to the entrance of the park, it takes less than 20 minutes to walk.

And to be more precise - it was near the restaurant where Russell went out to eat barbecue when he first dated Delphinium.

After Russell followed the navigation to the place, he saw the familiar barbecue restaurant diagonally across the road.

——Although I am not hungry, some greed is inevitable.

After all, when Russell learned that the suspected demon was Hua Chu, he was actually not so nervous.

The logic is simple.

If the devil is not Hua Chu, then Russell can definitely get Hua Chu's support and help as long as he explains the situation clearly to Hua Chu.

And if this demon is Hua Chu... then Russell still can't catch her.

She has been the Queen's psychiatrist at the Tower of Babel for who knows how long. She has been in contact with everyone from Bad Day to Deer Head Statue. Not to mention identity-sensitive newcomers like The Inferior and Russell.

If Huacheng is arrested, the secrets of the entire Tower of Babel may be revealed.

Therefore, at that time, Huachu would either rejoin the Tower of Babel as a demon, or internal members such as Bad Sun would take action to silence her.

——No matter which answer it is, it will not be Russell's turn to make the decision in the end, let alone his "Godfather of Babel" who is not good at fighting.

Moreover, in Russell's opinion, Huazhuo is the least likely to become a demon.

Bad Sun himself has successfully communicated and reached cooperation with his demon "Dead Sun"... He even taught himself such techniques.

After that, Russell did follow Bad Day's instructions and successfully pulled out the "God Container".

This shows that this technology is quite mature, and I should not be the only one who has learned it inside the Tower of Babel.

And Bad Day is only in his thirties this year.

He has never studied the knowledge of psionics and psychology. It is obviously impossible for him to develop this technology by himself... If Russell guessed correctly, Miss Huatou should be the person who taught Bad Sun this technology.

Even taking a step back, Flower Touch has nothing to do with this technology, and is really a psyker.

But her importance alone was enough for Bad Sun and Babel to teach her this technique.

...However, there is no way to tell Delphinium about these things.

So it's hard for Russell to explain why he is in such a relaxed state...

Russell stood in front of the psychological clinic. He stood on tiptoe and looked at whether the barbecue restaurant opposite was open, whether there were many people inside, and what were the half-price dishes at the door today. Then he turned around and walked leisurely to the psychological clinic.

Although considering the location, the rent in this location is quite expensive.

But from the outside, there is no telling that this is a shop run by an elf...

Because Miss Huachu's psychological clinic is not even an independent building.

Her clinic is on the second floor. The first floor is called "Water Divination" and is a fortune telling shop.

The layout of the door is extremely narrow, with thick soundproof curtains, and a pile of boxes that look like unopened express boxes stacked on top of each other and covered with dust. That is to say, Russell has a relatively slender body, and it may be difficult to get in if he is strangled.

After barely squeezing through the door, you can see the layout like a milk tea shop or a burger shop.

The air conditioner inside is turned on very high, and it can even be said to be a bit cold. Russell felt a chill in his ankles, as if there was a cold air above the floor.

There are several round tables in the hall, with a box of playing cards, three dice... and two empty cups next to them.

And in the symmetrical position of the door, like the bar counter of a bar, there are quite a lot of messy divination tools - compasses, crystal balls, tarot cards, and even several of them. It's not so much a divination shop as it is a wholesale store selling divination supplies.

Perhaps to enhance the atmosphere, the lighting inside is particularly dim.

Only dark blue and purple lights illuminated it, and at first glance there were no customers at all.

There were people sleeping behind the bar - there was even a bed behind the bar, covered with a thick quilt.

But this person's exposed hair isn't pink... it's dark purple.

Russell looked at the ceiling keenly and found that there was no camera installed here.

——Isn’t this boss afraid of stealing?

Feeling a little strange, he walked through here and followed the stairs to the second floor.

Then I found that the door of the psychology clinic was locked...or rather, it wasn't opened yet.

Russell was suddenly shocked.

They were already late when they came to work today, and they were delayed for a while... It's already past ten in the morning!

It's not open at this hour... Doesn't Miss Huachu not go to work in the morning?

As expected of an elf, opening a store is just for fun, right...

Just when Russell was hesitating whether he should return the same way or wait here for Hua Chu to arrive, he heard a somewhat lazy voice coming from the first floor:

"Are you going for psychological counseling?"

"...Ah, yes."

Russell walked over following the voice and responded: "Excuse me, when will Miss Huachu upstairs come to work?"

"Huh? I'm Hua Chu."

It was a girl's voice full of laughter.

The man sleeping behind the bar yawned, threw back the covers and stood up.

She wore a waist-baring sports vest, hot pants on her lower body, and sandals on her feet. It looks like a very cool outfit.

...Paired with the thick quilt behind her, it looks particularly unique.

When he saw her ears, Russell could tell that this was indeed an elf.

It’s just this hair…

"Ah, I forgot to turn off the light last night."

Noticing Russell's gaze, Miss Elf suddenly realized something.

The next moment, the blue-purple light flowing above the head that was reminiscent of a KTV went out.

Without the light, her hair turned light pink.

"This hair can change color," Huazhu said ostentatiously. "It doesn't just show different colors due to the light, but it changes color according to the light. It will turn into violet under blue light, and it will turn into violet under red light. It will turn orange under black or yellow light!”

"Sounds a bit like an anti-counterfeiting sign."

"You can also think of it as an anti-counterfeiting mark. If you shine it with a light, if the hair doesn't change color, it's not a flower touch - wouldn't it be more useful if you think about it this way?"

Hua Chu stood up with a smile, walked around the table, went to the second floor and opened the door of the clinic.

Russell followed her and couldn't help but ask: "Does the store on this floor also belong to you?"

"yes."

"I still don't quite understand...why should a psychological clinic be opened together with a divination house?"

"Some people need psychological counseling, some people need divination. But actually they all need the same thing."

Hua Chu’s tone was light and lively, like a girl’s, full of affinity: “They are just a little confused and need an answerer who has nothing to do with their interests.

"For those who need divination, I am the fortune teller 'Water Sign'; for those who need psychological counseling or treatment, I am the psychotherapist 'Hua Touch'..."

With that said, she opened the door of the psychological clinic.

Very different from downstairs - the decor here is cozy, bright and warm. As soon as Russell walked in, his eyes lit up.

It wasn't that his eyes lit up when he saw something, but he really felt that his field of vision suddenly became brighter, as if the air he breathed became sober.

Russell suddenly realized something.

"You opened the shop here, and then put it above the fortune telling shop... and used heavy sound insulation cloth, unreliable decoration, dusty barriers and other things to prevent people from coming - just to Screening guests?”

"Yes."

Huachu said with a smile: "My place is a regular customer introduction system, both upstairs and downstairs. But since it is you, there is no need for introduction. I know you."

She walked into the hall, gave Russell a glass of hot water, then sat opposite him, crossed her legs, took out a small notebook and opened it.

“But I still need to register...

"——Excuse me, are you an ultramarine or a barber now?"
