Chapter 30: Detective King Locke

The old man in cloth was the same as when he first met, away from others, and practiced boxing by himself there, his movements were very slow.

Wang Chao pressed his steps, wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve, and calmed his breathing.

When he approached the old man, the old man with his back to Wang Chao stopped practicing boxing, turned around, saw the bandage on Wang Chao's head, and was also slightly surprised, and asked, "Why didn't you eat what you were given?" ”

Sure enough, it's a fairy bean! Wang Chao must be in his heart.

Although according to the scene at that time, he was ninety percent sure that the bean that fell from the sky was the fairy bean from the Garin Tower. But after all, he was not willing to really eat the stomach and inspect the goods, so the possibility of one in 10,000 was not ruled out, the bean was not given to him by the old man, but the grain from the wild that happened to blow in the wind......

Wang Chao settled down and said with a smile: "The good things given by the old man don't want to be wasted because of this little injury, it's a pity." ”

The old man was noncommittal.

"You know I recognize the bean?" Wang Chao's eyes flashed, he avoided the word fairy bean, and asked with a slight shortness of breath, "Why?" ”

The old man's tone did not fluctuate, and he said flatly: "Didn't you guess a long time ago, I can read your heart." ”

Wang Chao pursed his lips and asked, "Are you...... Can you really read my heart? Can I read what I'm thinking in the moment, or can I check my memory? ”

What he cares about most is, of course, the secret of the crossing in his head.

The old man looked at him deeply, and after a pause of two or three seconds, he said, "I can read you, and I will think about it." “

As he spoke, the old man lifted Wang Chao's shoulder, easily led the latter over his head, turned his head, and Wang Chao landed steadily in a circle in mid-air, but there was almost no sense of vacancy with his feet off the ground.

"Do you remember what these two coins looked like when I gave them to you?"

The old man's thin and slender fingers flipped over two coins, which turned out to be the two that Wang Chao was carrying, Wang Chao touched his pocket, and the coins were gone, and they were touched away by the old man.

Faced with the old man's question, Wang Chao did not answer immediately, but pondered the intention of the old man's question in his heart.

He said he could read...... What I'm "going to think",

He took the coin from me, and when he mentioned it, he asked me what it was like when it was given to me.

Prophetic Mind Reading, Coin ...... Wang Chao's heart moved, and he suddenly thought about the situation that day.

……

That day, after the old man left, Wang Chao sat on a bench in the park, pondering the identity of the old man, and unconsciously tossed a coin.

Thinking to myself,

If the coin is positive, then he will quietly be a salted fish and continue to work in Nandu.

And if it's the other way around, then fucking sail out to sea and find the turtle immortals!

However, the coin was thrown and fell, and was pressed on the hand by Wang Chao on the park bench, but after taking it away, he did not confirm the pros and cons of the coin, but made an excuse for himself, and when the time for work came, he picked up the coin and left to go to work in a hurry...... Stop! In the recollection picture, Wang Chao stretched out his hand and shouted to stop.

He continued to recall, letting the picture go back, and Wang Chao, who left the park in a hurry, went back again, took the coin out of his pocket again, and put it on the back of his hand, and the coin on the back of his hand flew up again, flying into the air.

"Hmm...... At that time, I really didn't look at the coin is right and negative, no matter how clearly I recall it at this time, it is impossible to fabricate the memory that I don't have in my head......" Wang Chao looked at the young man tossing the coin on the park bench from the perspective of a bystander, no matter how hard he recalled, no matter how clearly he recalled, after the coin fell, it would become a blurry mess, and he couldn't distinguish the positive and negative at all, this was because Wang Chao didn't look down at that time, so there was no memory in his mind that the coin was right or wrong.

"So...... The old man gave me the coins, when they were glued together and not separated......"

Wang Chao tried hard to recall, and the memory picture presented around him also regressed rapidly, the young man sitting on the bench left backwards, swaying around the park, it was looking for the trace of the mysterious old man, the young man walked backwards all the way, walked back to the outdoor fitness area, and returned to the scene when he first met the old man. Wang Chao followed, desperately recalling the details of the time in his mind, and the pictures in front of his eyes became clearer and clearer.

Wang Chao saw the young man approaching the old man, hesitated for a moment, and behind the old man, raised his head slightly, and said, "Excuse me?" ”

The old man didn't seem to hear it, and was still practicing his fists slowly.

"Hello," the young man behind him stood on tiptoe and shouted loudly, "old man! ”

The old man finally heard it, turned around with his fist, looked left and right, and wondered: "Hey, where are the people?" ”

That's it! Wang Chao, who was watching from the sidelines, secretly thought that he was at that time, that is, the boy in front of him, before he first opened his mouth, he was thinking in his heart, "If the first sentence of this old man when he opens his eyes is 'Hey, what about people', implying that he is a little shorter now, then should he cos a wave of Edward, and diligently cooperate with the complaint, 'Who do you say is a dwarf winter melon', to liven up the atmosphere and increase the impression in the old man's heart"...... Does this is where he says that he can "read what I am going to think"?

The old man looked down and saw the boy who had come to talk to him, "Oh, here we are." Little one, what's the matter? ”

Wang Chao saw his lips in his memory and in front of him move, he was hesitating how to phrase it, and finally held back a sentence: "...... Uncle, are you thirsty? ”

This brain-dead kid! Wang Chao recalled it at this moment and felt a little unbearable to look at it directly.

The old man was also very surprised, paused a little, took out two coins on his body, threw them with a flick of his fingers, and smashed them into Wang Chao's palm.

Stop! Wang Chao stopped reminiscing, he walked back and forth with his eyes closed around himself in the freeze-frame memory picture, and said to himself: "The two coins at that time were glued together...... Inseparable. ”

As he recalled the details, the picture around him began to move, popping out of the old man's hand, and the coin smashed into the boy's palm, as if going back in time, flew back from the boy's palm along the original trajectory. Time slows down, and two closely connected coins spin in the air...... Wang Chao's face fluttered behind the spinning coins along the trajectory, and his golden eyes opened suddenly, and the two closely connected spinning coins froze.

"If this old man's 'mind reading' is what I think when I flip a coin later......"

Wang Chao grabbed the spinning coin frozen in the air, these two closely connected coins that could not be separated, one side was tail, the other side was still tail.

I see, and it is.

……

I went back and forth in my head several times, but in reality, it was only nearly ten seconds.

The old man was still playing with the two coins that he had taken out of Wang Chao's body, glanced at Wang Chao who was looking down and pondering, and said, "It seems that you have already thought of it, but I gave you the coins at that time to help you make up your mind." ”

"It's a pity I didn't notice it at the time." Wang Chao raised his head and said helplessly.

"In this world, a drink and a peck, a cause and an effect, is determined by heaven and man. It's a good thing that you don't recognize the mystery in the coin, and you don't need me to help you make up your mind. The old man smiled rarely, "Otherwise, how can your eyes be bright?" ”
