Evil Spirit Consultant

Chapter 74 Exploration
Saturday, 3pm.

Although she had been "predicted of death" by Koizumi Ling, Yang Liu packed up and still arrived at the venue of the "Happy Life Church" lecture on time.

It was easier to enter the venue than Yang Liu had imagined. Church staff with Happy Life Church nameplates outside the venue didn't even bother to check his background or credentials. Instead, they handed over the admission ticket after Yang Liu paid a 5,000 yen admission fee.

"Although I had expected this, isn't this too simple?"

Yang Liu stood in a corner of the venue in a daze. The admission ticket in his hand was actually a piece of paper with a unique badge printed on it, and even the usage time was handwritten.

But it is understandable. After all, the other party is a legal sect, and if it wants to develop, it needs to constantly absorb new members, so the review naturally cannot be too strict.

Even some larger sects would go door to door to preach, and Yang Liu had encountered this when she was in Tokyo.

At first he refused on the grounds that he was not Japanese and could not understand Japanese, but he did not expect that after a few days these guys actually found a Chinese to preach to him.

After being clearly rejected several times by Yang Liu, and even being too lazy to open the door, those people finally gave up.

Casually stuffing the paper certificate into his clothes, Yang Liu walked around the venue to gather information.

There were all kinds of people in the venue, but most of them didn't look very wealthy.

There were only a few guys who were dressed in fancy clothes and had wealthy looks. Judging from the reactions and expressions of the church members around them, they should be the high-ranking officials in the church.

Although it was a lecture, there was actually a row of long tables arranged in the corners of the venue, which were filled with various cheap snacks and drinks as a buffet.

Judging from the atmosphere in the venue, it was probably more like a neighborhood social gathering.

Maybe because Yang Liu arrived early, there weren’t too many people in the venue.

Yang Liu found that although most people seemed to be talking, they would actually quietly sneak over to the buffet table to grab some snacks.

But considering the admission price, it is almost impossible to make back the money spent on these cheap snacks.

In addition, there were two other groups of people. One group arrived earlier. They gathered at the front of the venue, sat together and excitedly discussed various things.

Although he didn't look wealthy, it was obvious that he disdained the buffet next door.

As for the other group, they were dressed similarly to the people around them.

However, according to Yang Liu's observation, these people were scattered in small groups in the venue. Some were leading the pace, while others were contacting people scattered around them and trying to get familiar with them.

"Ordinary onlookers, fanatical believers, and...disguised church staff?"

Yang Liu quickly labeled these three types of people.

The first two did not need to be taken care of, and he focused on the disguised church staff.

Under Yang Liu's close attention, he finally found a guy who looked like a senior executive.

He was a middle-aged man who looked very ordinary in appearance, with a fat belly and a slightly bald head, which most middle-aged people have.

The way he is dressed doesn't seem like he is very rich, and he even looks a little sloppy. You can say he is the type that is completely inconspicuous.

But basically all the staff members who were disguised as believers would pass by him from time to time. With Yang Liu's eyesight, he could see that the staff members' lips moved quickly when they passed by each other, probably reporting the situation. For a cult like this that was specifically used to make money, whether it was the "seniors" dressed in rich clothes or the hosts who went up to give speeches, most likely they were not the real senior staff of this church.

Only this kind of guy who secretly controls the overall situation is the real mastermind behind the scenes.

Keeping this guy's appearance in mind, Yang Liu did not leave immediately, but waited quietly for the lecture to begin.

Soon, after waiting for about half an hour, as more and more people came into the hall, the reception staff around began to restore order and invited people present to sit on the chairs.

Yang Liu ignored the invitations of some middle-aged ladies who tried to strike up a conversation with her and just found a seat at the back and sat down.

When the door of the venue slowly closes, it means that the lecture has officially begun.

A kind old man in a suit and tie, with an extraordinary demeanor and who looked like a successful person at first glance, walked onto the stage, took the microphone, and spoke his opening remarks with an approachable smile:

"Everyone, how are you? It's been a week since we last met. Have you changed at all?!"

"It's Mr. Shangcun!"

"Hello, Mr. Shangcun!"

Voices rose one after another in the venue, especially from the fanatics sitting in the front rows, who seemed even more excited and thrilled.

Under the guidance of these fanatics and the staff members interspersed among the crowd, the man on the podium known as "Mr. Shangcun" just said a few greetings and the atmosphere in the venue became heated up.

Yang Liu lost interest after listening to just a few sentences of the other person's speech. The guy's speech reminded Yang Liu of some lectures that were occasionally held in school when she was in elementary or junior high school.

They all guide people's emotions through various motivational languages and environments, making people's emotions become quite impulsive in a short period of time.

Although it wasn't a long time, Yang Liu had already discovered that some of the people he had previously classified as onlookers were also beginning to fall into his rhythm.

But because of this, it became easier for Yang Liu to find the disguised staff - just pay special attention to those who don't have much emotional fluctuations.

Focusing his attention on these people, Yang Liu subconsciously tapped his legs with his fingers.

"They all look like ordinary people, not like there are any extraordinary people. It seems to be just an ordinary cult..."

As he comes into contact with more and more extraordinary people, although there is still no better method, with his enhanced perception, Yang Liu can now barely tell whether a person is a extraordinary person by whether he has a sense of crisis.

But no one present gave Yang Liu a sense of danger, which meant that these people were most likely not extraordinary people, and even if they had extraordinary powers, they were probably only mediocre.

Various thoughts flashed through Yang Liu's mind. She closed her eyes slightly, no longer caring about the outside world, and instead focused on cultivating her spirit.

The lecture lasted quite a long time, and it took five or six hours in fragments before it finally ended.

After sitting in the chair and waiting for a while, Yang Liu saw that the middle-aged man he had been paying special attention to was about to get up and leave. He stood up first and walked out of the venue before him.

Controlling her walking speed, Yang Liu seized the opportunity and got into the same elevator with the other person.
