418 Scarecrow
Several children were lost, but there was no sign of being resold or transferred. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info unless he is mad and abducts the child and kills him directly, that is the result that no one wants to see. But when the wind is so tight and the police are vigorously blocking, I am afraid that it will not be easy to hide people's eyes and ears if I want to do that.
The biggest possibility is to hide.
But there has to be a place to hide things, especially for children who are still alive and kicking, right? This is a commercial street, where people come and go, and it is not a good choice.
Think about that young man again...... Although criminals can't engrave words on their heads, they really don't look like it. After she came into contact with this case, her mind was full of obscene middle-aged uncles, or orphaned and perverted women, or greedy and vicious philistines, and she really didn't match that ordinary and sunny face.
After hesitating, Xin Huohuo still decided not to rely on experience and superficial feelings, after all, he had made a mistake with empiricism when he went to the North Abyss before. The demons in the common belief are actually unsung heroes who silently save the world. And then this hero also let them be harmed, and now they are walking in this mirror world with injuries and loneliness, tasting the taste of failure.
Thinking of the North Abyss, Xin Huohuo's heart was sour. But she immediately calmed down, focused, and tried to think about what to do next.
With her age and foundation, even if she cultivates, she can only take the path of charms. All that can be used now is this ancient method. It's a pity that although the charm given by Yan Jun is powerful, the effect is greatly reduced because she is a very low user and is not skilled in footwork, mudras and spells.
But it doesn't matter, the so-called stupid bird flies first, as long as she is thoughtful and well-prepared, at least she won't be able to deal with even a mutated Fourth Realm human.
At this time, Xin Huohuo also used an invisibility charm for himself, and quietly walked around this small shop several times to make some basic arrangements. After that, I waited for more than an hour before the store was about to close, and followed a customer into the store.
She can be invisible, but if the door is opened and no one enters, it will certainly raise suspicion. It's just that the business of this small shop is very bad, and it took so long for a customer to come into the store. Next to it are rice noodle shops, barbecue restaurants and hot pot restaurants, and the aroma fills the evening breeze, making the hungry Xin Huohuo feel that his stomach is about to be burned by gastric juice, and he only hopes that the roar of stomach arm friction will not be too obvious.
The customer was a young girl, apparently passing by occasionally, casually strolling. Xin Huohuo followed closely behind the people, and after entering the store, he shrank in the corner and did not dare to move.
The store is very small, quite cramped, and there are shelves around it, and there are many small things hanging in the air, and there is no place to turn around, and if you accidentally bump into people or things.
As for what is sold...... Anyway, it's like a magic house or a witchcraft shop, except for some fantasy comics with exaggerated graphics, all kinds of bizarre gadgets: bizarre bottles, skull-shaped wind chimes, colorful potions, jewelry carved with Mo's name, and even many hideous-looking plastic animal specimens, and Harry Potter-style magic wands.
In short, there are so many dazzling that Xin Huohuo, who doesn't dare to walk around, doesn't see them all for a while, but thinks that this should be a two-dimensional space that is popular with young people.
But even when a customer entered the store, the young shopkeeper sat behind the counter and did not move, crooked in the chair playing with his mobile phone, only slightly raising his eyes, looking like he loved to buy or not. From the point of view of service attitude, it is far less than his enthusiasm when he went to set up a stall.
Xin Huohuo's heart moved, and he felt a little unusual.
There is a storefront, but it is not good to run it, and the expression is indifferent, but it is very diligent to go out and set up a stall. This is not particularly abnormal, but it feels very discordant.
"What is this thing for?" asked the girl, leaning over a counter, pointing through the glass, pointing to the contents, "It looks very simple." ”
"How delicate can this be?" the shopkeeper had to answer, but he didn't see how enthusiastic he was.
"Why is it so expensive for fifty dollars?" exclaimed the girl, "show it to me." ”
"Do you want to buy it?" the shopkeeper waved his hand impatiently, "although these are grass-rooted, they have been soaked in precious potions, and they have been concocted by the secret methods of the mysterious people in the border regions of China, which is very rare. ”
"Cut, it's a lie, isn't it? It's really so powerful, and the price is too cheap, isn't it?" The girl didn't believe it, probably because the shopkeeper's attitude was enraged, and slapped a hundred-dollar bill on the counter, "I'll buy two, but I want you to tell me how peculiar this thing is." But if it doesn't work well, I'll smash your store. ”
Whew, dressed like a little princess, is it a little sister? Ordinary people will turn around and leave at this time, but she has to find fault. I smelled a faint smell of alcohol in the air, probably a little too drunk.
The shopkeeper paused, seemingly a little angry, but finally stood up and took out two palm-sized objects from the counter. Because it was placed on the bright side, Xin Huohuo, who was hiding on the side, also saw it, it was actually a little person tied in grass, but it was indeed very simple, just a human figure, with a thin wooden stick stuck under his feet, like a super small scarecrow.
"Do you know what is the most annoying thing in this world?" the young shopkeeper asked the girl suddenly.
Xin Huohuo held his breath.
She stood in the shadows, but a fishing lamp hung above the heads of the shopkeeper and the girl, shining brightly on the two young faces. I don't know if it's a problem of angle, Xin Huohuo only felt that the corners of the shopkeeper's eyes were blue, and he looked ghostly.
"What's the most annoying?" the girl asked.
"Guilty villain. The shopkeeper suddenly laughed, "How else to say that it is better to offend a gentleman than a villain? Catch up with the natal year, even the bottom of the red socks are embroidered with villains for us to step on. It can be seen that the villain is so hateful. ”
"Can this grassy thing cure villains?" the girl asked, full of disbelief.
"You're so smart, that's right. ”
"Cut, is what you say? I'll draw a few villains when I go back, and casually say that it's an ancient method to exorcise evil spirits, and sell it to you? That's not how to cheat money. The girl said, "I want to get the hundred-dollar bill back."
The shopkeeper put his palm on the banknote, causing the girl to retract her hand.
"What are you doing? Are you still buying and selling? Believe it or not, I'll call the police immediately. The girl was also a great one, and only sneered.
"You haven't tried this yet, how can you get the money back?" the shopkeeper smiled again.
Under the light and shadow, the shadows on his face were mottled, as if something flashed, and it seemed like something emerging from his skin and muscles, strange and inexplicable.
However, the girl didn't see it, but Xin Huohuo's heart tightened.
(It looks like it's going to be the New Year...... )
