Chapter 63 Psychological Experiments in Haunted Houses
  "...Have you actually seen the famous exorcist Warren couple? What kind of people are they?"

In Professor Charlie's office, Zhu Mingyao asked with interest while holding a cup of hot tea.

After calling Clay, the two continued to sit there and chat. Although Professor Charlie was just an ordinary person, he had seen many strange people and strange things in his decades of studying mysterious folklore. It can be said that he has a lot of experience.

However, it is difficult for others to believe things involving supernatural powers if they have not witnessed them with their own eyes, so he basically never talked about them in class, and Zhu Mingyao only heard some of the stories today.

"Oh, Mr. and Mrs. Warren, I have only met them once. That was more than ten years ago. They were interviewed by a famous magazine at that time. It happened that the editor of that magazine was a friend of mine. He knew that I was in He is doing academic research in related fields, so he invited me to accompany him."

"As for what kind of people they are? I'm not sure..." Charlie Dalton frowned and tried to remember.

"Anyway, it is different from the image of the devout and enthusiastic exorcist masters in the rumors. Of course, I am not questioning their belief in the Lord, but I am saying that they are very good at communication and speak impeccably..."

At this moment, two people pushed open the ajar door and walked in. The tall and thin young man in front was Clay Dalton, followed by a middle-aged white man with brown eyes and black hair.

Charlie Dalton stood up and greeted with some surprise.

"Professor Marlowe, why are you here?"

"I heard from Clay that you have a very special guest here. It just so happens that I have something I want to ask him in person..."

The middle-aged man first greeted Charlie Dalton familiarly, glanced at the young man sitting on the chair, and seemed to think that he was too young, so he said hesitantly.

Clay Dalton next to him didn't care so much. He directly held Zhu Mingyao's hand with joy and excitement, and thanked him repeatedly:
  "Mr. Milhaud, you were right about what you said last time. After Christine rested for a while, her body has fully recovered and she has never had nightmares again."

Looking at your rosy face, I knew it well, the young man thought to himself, but deliberately teased: "That must be inseparable from Assistant Professor Clay's day and night companionship and careful care. .”

Although he stayed in school as a teaching assistant after graduating from the ivory tower and did not have much social interaction, Clay is still an adult with a fiancée, so naturally he will not be embarrassed by this little naughty joke. Instead, he feels The unpredictable young exorcist before him lost some of his mystery and became much more approachable.

He watched Zhu Mingyao look at the man who came in with him, and quickly introduced:

"This is Professor Maro from the Department of Psychology. He was my teacher in college. I am now interning under him. This time I want to..."

Before Clay could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Professor Marlowe.

"Okay Clay, don't be like this when we meet. It's too rude. Uh, I know there is a new Turkish restaurant nearby. It tastes very good. Why don't we go and try it together? I'll treat you."

Professor Charlie was an experienced man. He could tell at a glance that Maro had something to ask for help. He also felt that Zhu Mingyao was too young and a bit unreliable. He hesitated for a moment and didn't know how to make a decision.

He didn't say anything, just smiled and said: "Then we are not polite, everyone can order whatever you want. Their psychology department has a lot of funding." He winked at Zhu Mingyao as he spoke.

Zhu Mingyao understood clearly. This was obviously a business call. Old Charlie was implying that the other party's health bar was very thick, so he could just sharpen the knife.

While Charlie Dalton and Marlow were driving, Clay briefly spoke to Zhu Mingyao and explained the cause of the matter.

Professor Marlowe is one of more than a dozen associate professors in the psychology department of the university.

As a well-known federal institution, there is no certain number limit for the positions of assistant professors and associate professors at Southern Golden State University. However, the number of full professors, that is, tenured professors, has been relatively stable for a long time. Only when they are unable to continue teaching due to various reasons will they be promoted to associate professors as substitutes, so the competition among internal teachers is also quite fierce.

Recently, in the Department of Psychology, there happened to be a tenured professor who was about to officially retire because he was too old. Several senior associate professors, including Marlowe, were targeting this vacant position. To stand out from the competition, the most important thing was The standard is a demonstrable academic achievement...

"So your teacher Maro is going to conduct an experiment on the impact of the scary atmosphere of a haunted house on human psychology?"

Lines separated by lines were like mountains, and the young man really couldn't remember what the other party said. Those psychological terms that were difficult to pronounce and have strong teeth, he could only repeat them according to his own understanding.

“In name, it’s to study the phenomenon of insomnia, but in fact it’s pretty much what you said.

To be honest, I think it’s a bit unreliable, but several other associate professors participating in the competition have found good topics. If we want to beat them, our topics must be eye-catching and novel enough, and the most important thing is the experimental cycle. Be short and can produce results before others.

Teacher Maro came up with this idea. I am his old student and now his assistant, so I have no choice but to help him. "

Clay Dalton shrugged, showing a somewhat helpless expression.

"In the past, I would have only wanted to help him complete this experiment as soon as possible.

But after what happened with Christine, now that I see a haunted house or something, I can’t help but have random thoughts, so these days I used my own experience as an example to try to persuade him to bring a professional along with him. "

"It just so happened that you heard that I was coming today, right?"

The young assistant teacher grinned and said with a slightly embarrassed smile:

"Yes, instead of going to those psychics who don't know whether they are real or fake, I would rather trouble you to take a trip. In fact, I thought of you from the beginning. I went to an antique store a few days ago, but you didn't seem to be at home..."

Seeing the two professors' cars parked outside the window, he quickly seized the moment and added a few words in a low voice.

“This time, the experimental project we applied for from the school was quite sufficient and the time was not long.

You only need to stay there for a few days, and you will be rewarded with 5000 federal gold dollars. If you are willing to go, you can also negotiate the price. Teacher Maro attaches great importance to this matter. As long as the price is not too outrageous, he should Everyone will agree. "

The reward of 5000 gold yuan is indeed generous compared to the difficulty of this business.

Judging from Zhu Mingyao's experience studying under Zhang Shouzhong in the past few years, 90% of places like haunted houses are filled with rumors. Even if there is a real guy occasionally, the trouble is at most an earth-bound spirit or something. This thing can break pots and bowls and frighten people, which is already the limit.

Now is the 21st century after all. In the era of advanced information, those haunted houses and places that can really kill people will have long ago attracted officials or private people to come to deal with them and nip the danger in the bud. It will not be like A Chinese Ghost Story. It's like Lan Ruo Temple in the Chinese film. No one cared about it for many years, but in the end a big guy emerged.

Thinking of this, he nodded slightly.

Check out the situation while you're waiting for dinner. If it's not too much trouble, it might as well make some extra money.
