"Ghost City" lV novella
The employee nodded his head and picked up some of his grandfather's things.
I also handed the booklet to the employee and he put it in his bag.
We found a café downstairs from his house and spent about an hour explaining the matter.
The employee was stunned for a moment, and did not interrupt during the period, but his expression seemed to be a little unconvinced.
But I think so, no one believes anything supernatural.
At the end, I looked at the employee and said, "I'm done, can you tell me what's your name?"
The employee said suspiciously, "My name is Lixia." ”
"That Lixia, I told you so much that I wanted to ask you for a favor. I said.
"I understand what you're saying, but is there really such a magical thing in this world?" said Lixia puzzled.
"Why don't we buy a few hamster rabbits to try?" I said, pulling out my watch.
Lixia looked at it for a moment and said, "I've seen a gold watch, this is the gold watch that was scratched open?"
I nodded to the sea.
"Well, take that watch apart. Didn't you say that there was a figure on the back? Because this thing was indeed my grandfather's, but now the appearance has changed too much, right? You also said that after the death of the Pang family, there was the appearance of the Pang family, and you later used hamsters for experiments. I'll just assume that everything is true, so now open it if there is a shadow of a hamster and my grandfather, I will believe what you say. Lixia said.
I looked at the sea, and the sea nodded.
"Well, if your grandfather's shadow appears, it can also show the authenticity of this thing. I said.
"I don't have to look for someone, I can dismantle this. Lixia said.
"Can you?" I said.
"You asked me to take Grandpa's relics, there are tools in them. It shouldn't be difficult for me to remove a watch back. Lixia said, taking out the tools from her bag.
"Your grandfather's?" I said.
Lixia nodded his head and said, "My grandfather is very interested in this watch and has taken care of it." I watched him open the watch, but I didn't pay attention to the patterns inside. ”
Rixia tried to open the watch, and I looked at the sea and realized that we had not called the wrong helper.
Lixia opened the watch and handed me the cover.
I picked up the back and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, there were a few tiny mouse-shaped black dots under the black shadow.
Rixia handed me the eyepiece.
I looked at the hamsters with my eyepiece and made sure they were very small, then handed them to Rixia and said, "What you want to confirm." ”
Lixia picked up the eyepiece and looked at it for a moment, pointed to a black spot and said, "I recognize this black shadow, it is my grandfather." ”
I took the eyepiece, picked up the cover, looked at it, handed it to the sea, and said, "We now know how this watch works, and he will kill all the people in a picture." ”
"According to you, my grandfather killed himself. So why is there nothing wrong with that squad leader?" said Lixia.
I handed the watch cover to Rixia and said, "Help me put the watch back." ”
Lixia nodded his head and put the watch back without speaking.
Then he took it to his bag, looked at me and said, "Where did we just say?"
"Why is the squad leader okay? The sea said.
"We don't know what's inside, that's why we're telling you. I hope to find out the secret with you, and you should also want to know where the watch that killed your grandfather came from, right?" I said, reaching out to get it back.
Lixia resisted and said, "This thing belongs to my grandfather, right?"
"This watch is indeed yours, but your grandmother used the watch to exchange it for a villain with me. The rules of the black market, the stuff is mine. I said.
Lixia nodded his head and said, "It's also the first time I know about your ghost market, and I don't know how my grandmother knows this." And you also said that your villain is fake, but this table is true. ”
"Buy and leave, the rules are the rules. I didn't lie to your grandma, it was your grandma who was clamoring for me to change at the time. I said.
Rixia let go of his hand, and I took it and kicked it back into my pocket.
"How do you check?" said Lixia.
"We probably have two paths to take. I said.
"You speak first. Lixia said.
"The first way is to go straight to the secret of this watch. I said.
"I think it's trophies. Lixia said.
"In the diary, your grandfather got this watch from World War II, and we probably know that the date of production of this watch is 1463. But in 1462 Switzerland had only just developed pocket watches. So a year later, I guess this watch is also Swiss, but when I asked you just now, you said that Switzerland did not participate in World War II. I said.
"My grandfather's World War II was 1937, and 1463 was more than 400 years away. I think it's hard to find the source, it's too far away. And there is no doubt that Switzerland is forever neutral. They were neutral from the beginning of World War I to World War II and even today, and have never participated in any battles. Lixia said.
"So we think we can know the most accurate, so we can only think differently. Your grandfather's diary said that this watch was captured by the Japanese, so which countries did Japan fight during World War II?" I said.
"In World War II, Japan really didn't fight a lot. Lixia said.
"A lot?" said the sea.
"Japan has touched almost everyone during World War II, and almost everyone who wants to expand such a small island nation is its enemy. You name it all like China, the United States, the United Kingdom, the former Soviet Union, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Myanmar, Vietnam, and India. By the way, there is also South Korea. Lixia said.
"Wait for you to stop, I can't remember how many countries you reported at once. The sea said.
"To be honest, Japan's combat power is really not weak. The most provocative one was Japan, and at that time it was no exaggeration to say that whoever won the fight. Lixia said.
"So the watch seized from this Japanese is likely to be from one of the countries you just mentioned?" I said.
"I don't think it's possible that it was so chaotic during the war. It's really not clear which country it is, and even if Switzerland is always neutral, it has beaten someone else. Lixia said again.
"What do you say?" said the sea.
"Switzerland is always a neutral country, but it was also a rebel country in Germany. Things inside are also very chaotic, and it is normal for anything to happen in troubled times. Lixia said.
"Can't you find out where this watch came from?" I said.
"It's so hard. Lixia said.
"Then there is another direction to check. I said.
"Who?" said Riksha.
"Your grandfather's comrade-in-arms is the person in the black-and-white group photo. It stands to reason that if the result is similar to the Pang family, then why is the captain of the squad who said in your grandmother's mouth okay. I said.
