Answer: Haphazardly.

Explanation: The word "promiscuously" is used playfully here only to illustrate that the bones were spread rather chaotically across the floor. No allusion is made here to disorderly sexual conduct (which would make options "immoral" and "impure" viable), while "systematically" is opposite in meaning.
