Chapter 18: Camouflage

"You slow down first, I understand the reason, are you sure you saw it in an encyclopedia and not a cartoon?"

Wang Lu is not a fan of anime, but he still knows the extremely famous meme of the stone ghost mask, which used to be very popular among high school students when they used to tell fortunes near the school, and sometimes they put on some poses that confusing others when they walked down the street.

According to this trend, wouldn't it not be long before even stand-in messengers would pop up?

For a while, the atmosphere in the haunted house was a little scorching.

"I don't know what you're talking about, the encyclopedia says that the stone ghost mask caused a great panic after it was excavated, and then it was brought back to the headquarters by a group of elite witchers, and it has been sealed somewhere until now."

It turns out that both the witchers of the Western world and the local soul slayer will choose to contain these extremely dangerous items when dealing with them, and the encyclopedia notes that the Foundation headquarters contains many dangerous objects.

"These masks are probably different from what you said, and when the security guards came to investigate the situation, the cleaner didn't seem to remember what he had done, and once he took off the mask, he seemed to be a normal person...... Those masks should be more valuable to you than a small spirit like me, right? ”

The Dream Eater was seductive, but there was no deliberate exaggeration in his words, as the incident itself was full of strange things—even for a supernatural creature like it.

It's just a pity that it doesn't have a physical body, and it can't bring those masks to its head for more in-depth research.

"Gu Yun, what do you think?"

"Let's go investigate first."

He prefers to investigate these events that cannot be explained by common sense rather than cats being scary in a haunted house.

"That's exactly what I mean."

After a morning of squatting, Wang Lu deeply realized that even without them, the tourists should be able to have a good time, "But are you sure this thing is not a threat to ordinary people?" Do you want to drive it away before leaving? ”

"There's no need, if you drive it away, the haunted house will be even less scary."

Gu Yun felt that this haunted house was already stumbling enough, and now even the mask of the staff puppet costume was gone, "But don't go too far, if there are casualties, we will come back to you." ”

"You can rest assured that I have lived here for more than ten years, and there have never been casualties!" "Not only will I not hurt humans, but I will show them the way when they get lost!" ”

The haunted house in the amusement park is his residence, and in the event of a casualty, the amusement park will close the haunted house, and it will not even be able to eat at that time.

So, it's actually a spirit with principles and a bottom line.

Children under the age of six are not scared, and the elderly over the age of 60 are not scared.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to be quite professional."

Wang Lu was really shocked by the Dream Eater, this was the first time he had seen a spirit that knew how to live in harmony with humans, if all the supernatural creatures in this world learned this guy's attitude towards the world, then they would be able to retire honorably.

………………

As the king of the night barbecue stall in X City, Wang Lu once brought his own tools and ingredients and went to a friend's house for dinner, so he knew the specific address of his friend's house.

Before engaging in divination, he actually considered being a carefree barbecue stall owner, until one night on the way home, he saw a stall owner being chased by the chengguan for more than a dozen streets, which made Wang Lu realize that setting up a stall was also a manual work.

His combat effectiveness was not enough to rival that of the Chengguan army, so he gave up this plan.

My friend's family lives in Xicheng District, less than ten minutes away from his house, and he and Gu Yun entered a coffee shop across the street and started the surveillance work in style.

"The plan is like this for a while, if he goes out, we quietly follow him."

"Order a hot dog roll."

Then he found that Gu Yun ignored him, but carefully studied the coffee shop's order.

Because Wang Lu explained to him more than once on the way to sneak into the school, Wang Lu thought that he had some experience in this aspect - in the days of economic depression, he thought about many ways out, including the strange thieves who acted at night and robbed the rich and helped the poor.

The reason for the shattering of this dream is somewhat similar to that of the barbecue stall owner.

A thief near their home was caught by the head of the household and broke his leg, the thief was full of dissatisfaction, accusing the head of the household of intentional injury, after the police carefully investigated day and night, the thief was sentenced to two years in prison on suspicion of multiple thefts, and the head of the household was added the title of righteous and courageous.

This made Wang Lu realize that being a monster thief requires more than just infiltration skills, and may also need to fill out the free fighting skills.

After studying sneak into the school alone, he is not suitable for this cruel industry.

"Why are you still eating?"

"Didn't you tell me that the highest level of disguise is to fully integrate into your character?"

Gu Yun looked at the plate brought by the maid with great satisfaction, the steaming hot dog roll was appetizing, so he took the opportunity to order sandwiches and fruit tea.

He is now fully integrated into the role of ordinary diner, enjoying the pleasure of food to the fullest.

"What do you want?"

"Mini pizza bar, and by the way, another cappuccino."

Wang Lu thought about it carefully, and found that he seemed to be a little too nervous, they didn't know anything about the magic of those masks now, and at best, maybe their effect was limited to strengthening the body.

However, neither of them expected that this sitting would last for a whole day.

During this period, Wang Lu wanted to call many times to inquire, but he was afraid of startling the snake, so he finally gave up.

"Or, forget it today?"

When Wang Lu drank the sixth cup of coffee, he still couldn't help but feel sleepy, after all, he sat by the window of the coffee shop and didn't do anything for a day, neither a laptop nor any games in his mobile phone, just sitting completely dry, normal people would be tired.

Let's go home today, and come back tomorrow to eat...... Oh no, watch again.

"Agreed."

When Gu Yun ate the sixteenth plate of hot dog rolls, he finally couldn't eat it anymore.

From time to time, the maid gave the two of them a horrified look - although these two men provided a lot of revenue for their small shop, it was really unusual for one to drink and eat all the time.

And the two of them never left the residential area across the street.

These two people, shouldn't they be stepping on the point?

Could it be ......

Are these two people going to have a good meal before "doing a big deal"?

The more the maid thought about it, the more terrified she became, especially since one of the two looked like vagrants and the other looked like criminals.

Or call the police?

"Thanks for the hospitality."

Wang Lu took the initiative to settle the account, and automatically ignored the maid's pale face, turned to Gu Yun and said, "Why don't you bring a book to read when you come tomorrow?" I also brought my laptop. ”

The reason why he was so interested was not because his friends were involved, but because ......

It's been too idle lately.

After the trench coat man was eliminated, the client plummeted, and those indigenous evil spirits in X City are now panicked, and they don't have the courage to commit crimes against the wind.

"Are those friends yours?"

Gu Yun didn't answer him immediately, but pointed to the people who walked out of the neighborhood across the street—each of them wore masquerade-like animal masks and got directly into a van painted with graffiti.

Wang Lu admitted that Gu Yun's question was very tricky.

He didn't know how to identify the exact identity of the other party through the mask.

"I don't know, but we can follow along."

Anyway, they're idle right now, so they should be ...... Took a walk after dinner.
