Chapter 14

Walking out of the coffee shop, Wu Chuan asked Xu Xin'an: "Is your store still there?" ”

"Yes."

"But you don't do it anymore, do you?"

Which line? Is it selling candles or slaying demons? Xu Xin'an reacted.

Wu Chuan hurriedly said: "You don't know Horcruxes, and you don't know what soul power is, so I guess you are not in the demon subjugation business." ”

Xu Xin'an said: "It's true that I haven't been in contact with it, I always thought that we were just an ordinary candle shop." ”

"So the candle shop is still there?"

"Yes."

"What happened next? How do you know if your store is not an ordinary candle shop? ”

"Later, my father went on a trip, and a person from the Demon Suppression Circle came to tell me that I was here for the Death Shop, and he also said that two of the Death Shop had been accidental, so I should be careful."

Wu Chuan paused in his footsteps and asked her, "Then have you told anyone else about coming here to see me?" ”

"No, no, I promised you, I didn't tell anyone else."

Wu Chuan nodded, continued to walk forward, and explained: "I don't mean anything else, it's just that you said that you are not a person from the Demon Suppression Circle, and you don't even have basic knowledge, so how can you tell who the other party is, and for no reason you came to tell outsiders that you are here to find death, and other people's stores have been killed, you have to be careful...... Don't you think it's weird? ”

What's strange about this, and even stranger things she's seen before, for example, the one who came to the store was a god, and that god said that he was too bored to die. But Xu Xin'an didn't want to talk to Wu Chuan.

At this time, they had already walked to the parking lot, Wu Chuan took Xu Xin'an into his car, and continued to ask questions: "What did that demon slayer do later?" Are you still in touch? Why are you looking for soul candles? ”

"The man didn't do anything, and he contacted him once in a while. I checked, and the two death-seeking shops he said did also sell candles, but the shopkeepers had accidents and died. I searched for a soul candle in my store, but I never found it. ”

Wu Chuan drove onto the road, and Xu Xin'an changed the topic and asked, "Where are we going now?" ”

"Go to my office, it's easier to talk there. I can show you the information about the Death Shop, answer your questions, and see if there's anything I can do to help. ”

"Thank you so much." Xu Xin'an was very happy and felt that he was really lucky to find a companion.

"You haven't said it yet, why are you looking for the Soul Candle?" Wu Chuan still insisted on asking questions.

"Because the other death shops have been killed, and the candles are all gone. I think their death must have been because of the soul candle, otherwise what else could it be? But I don't know much about these myself, although there is no soul candle in my house, but the murderer doesn't know, if he comes to the door, my store and I will be very dangerous, so I want to find other shopkeepers who are looking for death, and let's discuss and think of a way together. If someone wants to harm us, we've got to find the killer, right? And the other party's target is the soul candle, so we must always take some precautions in advance. What if the other party's ultimate goal is to do something big bad? Someone has to know the truth. ”

Wu Chuan nodded and agreed with her statement. He asked again, "Then how many dead shopkeepers have you found now?" ”

"I just started looking, and I only found you."

Wu Chuan smiled.

Xu Xin'an asked him: "Do you still have a candle shop at home?" ”

"There's still business, but it's not the traditional kind of shop."

"It's also very difficult to do a traditional candle shop business now. I also added a lot of other things to my store to maintain. By the way, do you have any other contact with the Death Finder? ”

"Nope." Wu Chuan said with a smile, "After all, it is rare for a death-seeking shopkeeper to post on the Internet to ask about the death-seeking shop and the soul candle. ”

Xu Xin'an was very embarrassed: "I really don't understand these things. There's no way around it, I want to try my luck. I didn't expect that luck was quite good, and I really met it. ”

"What did you say happened to the two murder shops?"

Xu Xin'an told Wu Chuan everything he knew. Wu Chuan asked again: "That's just the death of the owner of two shops that sell candles and related supplies, and it is normal for the store to close down or sell after the death of the owner." How can you be sure that these two are death shops? ”

Xu Xin'an was speechless, because it was Bi Fang who told her that the two were death-seeking shops, and she believed Bi Fang.

"The demon slayer sued you?"

Xu Xin'an nodded.

"Did he say the evidence?"

Xu Xin'an shook his head.

"What's his name? I can find out some famous demon slayers. Besides, to be honest, the average demon slayer doesn't know about the Death Shop. He paused and strengthened his tone, "Death shop is a secret. ”

"Why?"

"If you have the invincible weapon in the world, you are almost invincible. The soul candle can even destroy the souls of gods and demons, and its power is incomparable to any magic weapon, how much temptation is this for the demon slayer? If this is a public matter, a well-known thing, then the demon slayers don't have to do anything else, it's enough to fight you to the death every day for the soul candle. ”

Oh yes. It is normal that the first bull in the universe will set off a bloody storm in the demon subjugation world. The novels are all written, and in order to slay the dragon sword in the sky, the rivers and lakes are still bloody. Xu Xin'an thought about it, and felt that it was wrong: "But the soul candle can only be used by the shopkeeper who seeks death, and it is useless for others to rob it." ”

"It's just a legend, isn't it? After all, no one has used it. ”

Xu Xin'an felt that it made sense. But she still believed what Bi Fang said, he said that only the shopkeeper who sought death could ignite it, and it must be like this. The other demon slayers didn't know about it, or they thought they had learned the spell to light the soul candle, and it was certainly possible to snatch it.

"Ah, could it really be that the news was leaked, so those two shops were not actually destroyed by gods and demons, but by demon slayers? The murderer wants to snatch the soul candle and call him the boss in the demon subduing world. Xu Xin'an used his imagination.

Wu Chuan glanced at her: "Do you think that the gods and demons were destroyed?" ”

"yes. Because the gods and demons don't want to be killed, and the only thing that can kill him is the soul candle, so he destroys all the death shops so that he will be safe - I thought it was like this, but hearing you say this, the demon slayer may also be able to do it. ”

Wu Chuan nodded: "So the demon slayer who is looking for you is very suspicious." What's his name and what does he look like? ”

Xu Xin'an bit her lip, not knowing whether to tell the truth or not.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm trying to remember." Xu Xin'an said, "He didn't say his name, it's not very high, it feels like you, it's a little fat." ”

"How old? What does it look like? ”

"I can't tell my age, my face is full of beard, I can't see my appearance, and my eyes are very bright." Xu Xin'an made up one casually, anyway, for the sake of safety, she just didn't want to expose Bi Fang.

Wu Chuan frowned: "Then you have to check it, I can't think of this person now." Maybe he was disguised. ”

"Hmm." Xu Xin'an nodded, a little weak-hearted, and hurriedly changed the topic, "We should check what is going on with the two death shops he said, the police report was an accident, but what is the truth?" If it's really for us to find the Death Shop, shouldn't we gather the other Death Seekers to deal with this matter, or gather some righteous demon slayers or something? At least find out the real culprit and bring him to justice, so that everyone can be safe. ”

Wu Chuan agreed.

Not long after, Wu Chuan's office arrived.

Xu Xin'an got out of the car and walked into the building with Wu Chuan. Before entering the building, she looked up and saw the Golden Wood Building.

It's a commercial office building, and the security guard is standing in the corner not far from the elevator. There are a lot of people walking around in the lobby, looking like white-collar workers. Wu Chuan led Xu Xin'an to the elevator entrance, did not get on the elevator with others, and waited until there was no one in the elevator on the next trip before going up.

Xu Xin'an felt that Wu Chuan was really a very cautious person, maybe the demon slayer was like this. She watched Wu Chuan press the button on the 22nd floor of the top floor and asked him, "Is the rent expensive here?" ”

"It's fine." Wu Chuan smiled, "The façade is better, and the fee can be higher." Generally, those who come to us to exorcise evil spirits are also willing to pay. ”

Xu Xin'an sighed: "It's good to have the ability, my family is still selling candles." ”

When the floor arrived, the elevator door opened, Xu Xin'an followed Wu Chuan to the door, watched him take out the key to open the door, and after entering, he found that it was an office with a very homely feeling. Near the door, there was a glass-walled room filled with artifacts. The living room is quite large, with a set of brown leather sofas, two tables against the wall, and some ornaments. Then there's an open kitchenette, more like a pantry. Next to it is the bathroom, and there is a door on each side, the door is closed, Xu Xin'an guessed that it should be Wu Chuan's office or something.

"What do you want to drink?" Wu Chuan asked politely.

"Water is fine." Xu Xin'an replied while looking at the furnishings of the house - very simple, but simple and elegant, quite tasteful.

Wu Chuan brought a cup of water and a cup of coffee and put them on the coffee table. Xu Xin'an hurriedly came over and sat down. Wu Chuan handed her the water, she took it and took a sip and asked him, "What about the rest of the company?" ”

"Not today." Wu Chuan took a sip of coffee and said, "The water you drink has the effect of strengthening the soul and enhancing the mana induction." ”

"So special?" Xu Xin'an looked at it, it was ordinary clear water.

"Can you drink it?"

Xu Xin'an took two sips and shook his head: "It doesn't taste good." ”

"Drink slowly, savor carefully."

Xu Xin'an took a few more sips and shook his head embarrassedly: "I really didn't drink it." ”

Wu Chuan smiled: "It's okay. You sit down for a while, and I'll go and show you the information about the dead shop. ”

"Okay, okay." Xu Xin'an was a little excited, and this was what he was waiting for.

Wu Chuan walked into the room on the left and closed the door. Xu Xin'an waited patiently and drank two more sips of water, which was really tasteless. She put down the cup, stood up and walked around the house, touched here and there, and looked around the house carefully, everything looked very high-end, and it should be very expensive. And the location is very good, and the rent is certainly not cheap. Xu Xin'an sighed, they are all death-seeking shops, and people who have the ability to make more money than her family.

Thinking of her store, Xu Xin'an walked back to the sofa and opened her bag and took her mobile phone, wanting to call the store to confirm that Bi Fang was not making trouble in the store. But when I took out my mobile phone, there was no signal.

Xu Xin'an was stunned, no, how can there be no signal in this kind of office building in a commercial area?

She turned her head to look at the room where Wu Chuan had just entered, and wanted to call him and ask why there was no signal, but she was stunned as soon as she turned her head.

There is no door on that wall!
