Chapter 16: Song Liuyun
"This Song Liuyun, is it your colleague?" In the safe house, Liu Ye and Smith sat at the table facing each other, and Shi Lan paced aside.
"Hmm. Liu Ye nodded, "It's a friend, but I don't have much contact." ”
"I think there's something wrong with this. Smith leaned his chin on his chin with his fists in his hands, "When Mu Shilan and I first arrived in Boyun City, we were attacked by an unknown person, and now that we are back here, maybe someone has set a trap for us." ”
"Trap?" Liu Ye blinked, Smith said it was not unreasonable, this could indeed be a trap, but he had a reason to go, there was an electronic key to Chen Siyun's house in the glove box that was originally stored in the company's safe, and if you want to find out the mystery of Chen Siyun's disappearance, you must go to his house to find clues.
"Liu Ye, what do you think?" asked Shi Lan.
"There is such a possibility, but it is not too high. Liu Ye shook his head, "But there is one of those things that is important to me, and I have to pick it up." ”
Smith frowned, he didn't like to take such a risk.
"Then let's go, let's go together. Shi Lan patted Smith on the back and smiled at Liu Ye, "Big man, don't be so nervous, Liu Ye is not what he used to be, even if he encounters something like that three months ago, he can completely protect himself, eh, right?"
"Hehe......" Liu Ye smiled reluctantly, but secretly clenched his fists.
This is no longer what it used to be, and I have gotten rid of the life of being powerless to resist and resign myself to fate.
However, I used to think the same way, but the result was ......
The scenes in the memories passed through his mind, and Liu Ye's clenched fists slowly loosened again.
"Okay, you can go. Smith nodded and stood up, "Ready to go." ”
"So fast?" Liu Ye looked at the outfits of the two people in front of him and pouted, "You two really don't change your clothes?" Shi Lan is okay to say, this kind of young lady's dress on the street is not a big problem, but your black robe is too conspicuous. Even if there is a 'perception shielding' magic that can keep ordinary people from noticing your fancy dress, if someone is secretly staring at us as you say, perceptual isolation will not work. ”
"I don't need you to remind you. Smith said coldly.
Liu Ye raised his eyebrows and made a "please" gesture.
Smith took out his wand and pointed at himself and recited a strange incantation, followed by a red light that enveloped him, and a moment later, a greasy uncle in a jacket with a big belly and a little bald head appeared.
The corners of Liu Ye's eyes jumped, and he said, "Strange uncle and beautiful girl...... Isn't this combination even more eye-catching, Big Brother Smith, can't you just be a normal person?"
Smith transforms himself into a kind-faced but tall white-haired old man.
"The white-haired old man of one meter nine ......" Liu Ye patted his face lightly and shook his head.
"Hmph," Smith cast another spell, this time transforming into a burly man in sunglasses in a suit, standing next to Shilan as if he were a bodyguard.
"Alas-" Liu Ye sighed, "Forget it, so be it, at least it looks much more harmonious than just now." ”
Shi Lan stood aside and looked at the two of them with interest, covering her mouth and snickering.
Half an hour later, in the fourth district of Boyun City, Song Liuyun's apartment.
Room 302...... Ah, here it is. Liu Ye looked at the address displayed on his mobile phone, and knocked on the door, "Hello, is anyone there?"
Smith watched his surroundings warily, while Shilan leaned against the railing and watched intently at the clouds in the sky.
No one responded.
"It's strange, today is the weekend, aren't you at home......" Liu Ye knocked on the door again, "Song Liuyun, it's me." ”
Shi Lan watched the white clouds in the sky change from rabbits to cats, and asked, "Could it be that you are in the wrong place?"
Liu Ye glanced at the address again, shook his head and said, "No, this address was found on the company's internal employee website, unless she deliberately filled in a fake address, otherwise this is right." ”
Shilan walked over and pulled the doorknob open, and pulled it open all at once.
"Huh, it's not locked. Liu Ye looked at it, and there was no light in the house, "It seems that no one is at home, is it so careless?"
"Hurry back!" Smith grabbed the two of them one by one and pulled them back sharply, "It's a trap!"
A second, two seconds, half a minute passed, and nothing happened.
Although he couldn't see Smith's expression, Liu Ye could clearly feel his embarrassment now.
"Forehead......" Liu Ye patted Smith's hand holding his clothes, "Now, can you let go?"
Smith snorted coldly and let go of the two, Shi Lan stuck out her tongue and silently walked around to Liu Ye's side.
"Squeak-" Liu Ye gently opened the door and walked in.
The furnishings in the house are very simple, and it is also a standard apartment, with a layout similar to Liu Ye's, one living room and one room.
"It's very tidy, much cleaner than your house. Shilan looked around, "Hey, it's not good to enter someone else's house without permission." ”
"The situation is special, and I can't take care of so much. Liu Ye searched around for his box, "Anyway, I was fired from the company, and my fate with her basically ended here, I guess I will never see her again in my life." Ah, found it. ”
Translucent storage boxes sit quietly by the windows in the room, glittering in the sunlight.
Liu Ye walked straight towards the box, but suddenly stopped halfway and stood in place.
"Hmm, what's wrong?" Shilan asked.
"A question comes to mind. Liu Ye said word by word, "This address was found on the employee website, but the employee website was logged in with my work account." ”
"So what?"
"The note posted on my door was dated October 11th, and it is now the end of December, which means that I have been fired from the company for nearly two months. Liu Ye took a deep breath and turned his head to look at Shi Lan behind him, "This shows that I haven't been fired from the company yet, and that note was not left by someone from the company, these are all bait, the bait that led us here." ”
Coincidentally, the three of them took out their wands at the same time.
Liu Ye held the deadwood staff tightly, his palms were sweating, staring out the window, Shi Lan stood two meters behind him, facing the balcony outside the living room, his hands trembling slightly, Smith guarded the door with a solemn face, the wand in his hand faintly glowing gold.
After a while, nothing happened, Liu Ye and Shi Lan breathed a sigh of relief and put down their wands, only Smith was still on guard.
"Looks like I'm overthinking. With that, Liu Ye walked towards the storage box.
"Wait!" Shi Lan stopped him, and with a flick of her wand, she put a light curtain on Liu Ye's body, "Put on a protective charm and go over, okay, let's go." ”
Liu Ye cautiously walked over and picked up the storage box, slowly walked backwards to Shi Lan's side and turned around, and then the two walked to Smith's side together.
"If it's not a trap, what does the other party want to do with all the trouble?" Smith frowned, and pointed to the dolls that could be seen everywhere in the room, "This colleague of yours is not simple, the furnishings in the room seem to be unremarkable, but the placement of these dolls forms a magical array, but this array is strange and incomplete." ”
"Song Liuyun is a magician?" Liu Ye's mind once again appeared in his mind a tall woman with flaxen hair, a single ponytail, and a ******, it was hard to imagine that this colleague with a little nerdy temperament had something to do with magic, but he couldn't help but believe the facts in front of him. It's just, what does Song Liuyun want to do?
"Her purpose seems to be just to get me back the box. Liu Ye frowned, "But if that's just the case, there's actually no need to go through such a big deal to meet in other places such as cafes, and her identity as a magician won't be revealed." Unless she has some reason why she can't meet me, and why she has to ask us to be here. ”
"And, if she deliberately left the door, what if the thief came in. Shi Lan said, "Unless, no one can take anything from here except you." ”
"Except for me?" Liu Ye suddenly thought of going to his birthday in July.
"This mobile phone ornament is given to you as a birthday present. ”
Song Liuyun threw a small gourd the size of a coin to Liu Ye, who was sitting at the workbench writing a report.
"Birthday present? ”
Liu Ye took out his mobile phone, twisted the small gourd, and then passed the door with the box, the gourd ornament suddenly lit up with a faint blue light, and the dolls in the house trembled a few times, and then returned to calm.
Liu Ye's heart sank, Song Liuyun had been eyeing him so long ago?
The three of them looked at each other and fell into a brief silence.
"I don't know why she's revealing her identity as a magician, or what her true purpose is. Liu Ye said and patted the storage box in his hand, "But our goal has been achieved, let's go back quickly." ”
"She went to such great lengths to make me wonder if there was something special in this box. Shi Lan walked up to Liu Ye and stared at the translucent box, "Maybe she has prepared some gift for you." ”
"A magician who has been dormant for so long...... Smith said solemnly, "she should have noticed the fluctuations in magic that occurred when we took you away in September, and knew that you were exposed to magic, which is why she chose to put such a design." ”
Liu Ye scratched his head and said, "Alas, don't care so much for now, let's leave quickly, it's not good to be discovered." ”
