Chapter 31: Memories of the Hand of the Little Sleeve
On the second floor of the dimly lit shroud shop, the candle flame was flickering, and an old armor was floating quietly in the air
He sat on the edge of the bed with his hands on his sleeve, and his face looked a little sad
"Tell me."
Chen Beibei looked at the sleeve hand and said to her.
So many people have died in the city now, and the police have already begun to investigate.
Of course, Chen Beibei wants to solve this matter as soon as possible, so that the impact of this matter on human beings can be minimized.
"Hmm."
The hand of the sleeve nods the odds.
[I woke up from the darkness a few months ago, and since I woke up, the world around me has changed dramatically.
It's not the same world I was in anymore.
When I woke up, I didn't know how to live in this world.
No one came to tell me how to live.
I took this armor alone to the castle of Sakura, and settled in this relatively convenient place. I still have to sell the jewelry on my body to make up for the rent.
Originally, I just planned to live here now, and then slowly find a way to live in this world.
But.
Because there are humans all around, I, as a youkai, am still afraid to come into contact with them.
If you want to live, it's not as easy as you think.
Luckily, a man knocked on my door, walked in, and looked at my clothes hanging on the wall. Pointing to a dark blue dress, he asked, "How much does this dress cost?" ”
I didn't know why he was asking.
Because that's my own clothes.
During all these years of living in the human world, I have also learned that money is very important.
If you don't have money, you may not even have a place to sleep
I sensed that the man seemed to want the dress, so I tried to answer him: "A hundred dollars......"
What I didn't expect was that the man actually gave me a hundred dollars.
After the man took the clothes away.
I took the hundred dollars, and my heart couldn't help but be filled with joy: "It seems to ...... Can I continue to wait here for my brother to come back......]
"Is this how the boss decided to sell shrouds?"
The three-tailed fox looked at the sleeve hand and asked her.
Apparently.
At this time, the three-tailed fox was still very interested in some of the past events of the sleeve hand.
A youkai can open a shop in the human world.
It's also a thing, it's really very rare.
[Well, when I started, I never figured out why that man came to my house and wanted to buy my clothes.
But.
It wasn't until I accidentally saw the three words "shroud shop" written on the door, that I finally understood.
Of course.
That's how I found a way to stay here.
As a youkai, I don't need to eat, and I don't need any entertainment.
All I have to pay each month is the rent for this house.
Five hundred bucks!
I...... By all means! 】
The sleeve hand looked at the three-tailed fox and said slowly. When he said this, he had a smile on his face. Obviously, this is indeed a rare opportunity for the hands of the sleeve.
The sleeve hand has exquisite female red skills, and the sewn clothes are naturally very exquisite.
Being able to come to this abandoned shroud shop can be regarded as her fate for the sleeve hand.
"It turns out that the boss's goal is only 500 yuan a month...... No wonder it is only sold every month that the piece shroud is sold, and the boss is not the slightest panic......"
The three-tailed fox looked at the sleeve hand and said thoughtfully.
The clothes in the Sleeve Hand store are basically 1,000 yuan a piece.
It's just a coincidence that the sleeve of the mobile phone is fate.
The price is set!
Although the price is relatively high, it is difficult to sell, but because of the shroud shop with the sleeve hand, the shroud sold is more special. All of them are shrouds for young women, so even at this price, they can be sold occasionally.
And once you sell one, you can directly get two months' rent.
This is very important for the sleeve to come!
……
The curtains were tightly drawn all the time, and the room looked like a narrow box.
The candles burned tightly, and there was a faint smell of burning candles in the air.
The sleeve hand is still talking about the things that he has just come to the human world.
Since then, I have made up my mind to run a shroud shop while waiting for my brother's return.
But.
Things didn't seem to be as smooth as expected, and I was full of confidence, but a month later, I suffered a blow. Since that man, the shroud has not been sold.
The landlord came over at the end of the month to collect the rent as scheduled.
I had to give the landlord what I had a hundred dollars and begged her to let me stay here for a month.
The landlord probably saw me as pitiful and agreed to my request.
Looking at the more and more clothes on the wall, I couldn't help but wonder if I could really sell shrouds. 】
"I'm so worried, then...... The boss really sold it in the second month, right? ”
The three-tailed fox said nervously.
If you still can't sell it in the second month, then even if the landlord is good, you will drive it away.
"It did sell in the second month."
As he said this, he glanced up at the armor suspended in the air. Then he lowered his head again.
[In the second month, I still sew shrouds every day, hoping to sell them as soon as possible.
But.
Even so, no one came knocking on the door. It's as if everyone doesn't know there's a shroud shop here.
It's time to pay the rent soon!
If...... If I can't sell it, then I'm probably going to be kicked out......
In that case, I may never see my brother again.
Because if I leave here, even if I come back, I won't know where I've gone, right?
I'm worried.
But...... All you can do is worry......
I'm just a youkai, and I don't know how I'm going to make a thousand dollars in one piece.
I'm familiar with ...... It's just the needle and thread in your hand......]
When the sleeve hand came here, his expression was a little helpless, which made Chen Beibei can't help but realize the despair of the sleeve hand when he can't pay the rent.
After all.
The reason why the hand of the sleeve became a monster is because of the strong feelings of looking forward to the return of his younger brother...
This expectation.
Let the sleeve hand forget the passage of time and the fact of his own death.
It's been waiting.
Been waiting!
If you let the Hand of the Sleeve leave the place where it waits now, how will the Hand of the Sleeve survive?
But.
If you don't leave, humans aren't that easy to mess with, are they......
"That's why the armor will go out to kill. Is it? ”
Chen Beibei looked at the hand of his sleeve and asked her.
At that time, the sleeve hand was in that situation, and it was time to have to pay the rent.
"I ...... I don't know ......."
The Sleeve Hand replied.
The answer of the sleeve hand is not a lie, and the sleeve hand should really not know about this matter.
After all.
Even the transformation of armor into a youkai is something that the hand of the sleeve knows only now.
[All I know is that there was a sad man who walked into my shroud shop.
He looked really sad.
There are still dry tear stains on his face, probably because his beloved has passed away......
That's why it's like this.
Brother if ...... No...... My brother won't die...... Anyway, if a loved one really dies, I will be the same as this man......
"How much does this dress cost?"
The man asked, pointing to a brightly colored shroud.
"A thousand!"
When I first came out with this answer, I already regretted it, and I was worried all the time. Would he really be willing to pay so much money for this dress......
But.
If it weren't for so much, I wouldn't have been able to make a thousand dollars in one piece.
In a word...... I had to do something very excessive......
In the face of such a sad man, such a very unreliable price is offered! 】
"That man finally bought it, right?"
The three-tailed fox asked.
The three-tailed fox has been working in this shroud shop for several months, and has seen many sad men come in.
Most of them don't care much about the price of their clothes......
After all.
At a time like this, no one would have the heart to care about such a thing. What's more, buying something more expensive can also give you some comfort in your heart.
The three-tailed fox understands this very well.
[Yes, the man bought it without a trace of hesitation.
Since then.
Every once in a while, people would come to my store to buy clothes, and my money would gradually increase.
That's when I decided to hire someone to help me deal with these guests......
I don't like to communicate with humans.
Three-tailed fox, you know, I like to sew clothes quietly by myself.
It's really distressing to be disturbed. 】
The sleeve hand's gaze fell on the three-tailed fox, and the two looked at each other for a while.
"Because you've been thinking about the past, that's why you don't want to be disturbed, right?"
Three-tailed fox road.
"Hmmm......"
The Sleeve Hand replied.
The experience of opening a store in the human world has been told so far.
From the hand of the sleeve of the telltain
Chen Beibei can still hear something, at least ...... At the turn of the day before the second month's rent...... Something must have happened.
It can't be so coincidental.
As soon as I arrived, someone came to buy a shroud. What's more, it's still a shroud for young women.
Even if it's a coincidence.
So next...... Every once in a while, someone comes to the store.
That sounds a bit scary to think about.
……
The sleeve stopped talking, and the room fell into silence for a while, and the silence was panicking.
"You killed those people, right?"
Chen Beibei looked at the armor floating in the air, with a hint of pity in his eyes.
In the past two years.
Chen Beibei has seen too many things about monsters, and the monsters are gradually waking up. However, this world is no longer the era when shemales coexisted.
Youkai must hide from humans.
So.
It is extremely difficult for youkai to survive in a world that has been occupied by humans.
The hand of the sleeve was able to stay in the northern district of Luoying City until now, which can be regarded as her luck, she is proficient in female red, and she happens to live in an abandoned shroud shop Zheng
"Hmm."
Armor replied.
The sound of the armor sounded a little eerie, with a certain smell of decay.
When Chen Beibei and the others came here, the armor was already ready to be killed.
This can be heard from the words of Chen Beibei when the armor first saw him. Therefore, at this time, it is completely normal for the armor to directly admit that he killed someone.
Chen Beibei's answer in the face of the armor.
Zheng is caught in a dilemma
At this time.
There is no need to ask the reason for the armor killing, after all, this reason can be clearly felt from the stories told by the sleeve hand.
The armor absorbs the aura in the needlework and thoughts of the sleeve hand. Eventually, he became a youkai.
Even if you have turned into a demon.
The armor still accompanies the sleeve hand every night, which is enough to prove that the armor has a deep friendship with the sleeve hand. Those aura that has been absorbed over the years must also contain the thoughts and expectations of the sleeve hand.
"Now that these things have been done, there has to be a price to pay for them.
Isn't it? ”
Chen Beibei looked at the armor and the hand of the sleeve and said to them.
This time.
Chen Beibei has already made his own decision.
Since so many people have died, it is natural that it cannot be due to some reason. And easily forgive.
"Hmmm! Onmyoji-sama, when I did these things, I already knew what the end would be! ”
The armor is suspended in the air, and the aura surrounding the armor is very stable.
Apparently.
Armor has no fear of such an end.
"But...... I hope Onmyoji-sama will promise me one thing. ”
Armor Road.
"You."
Chen Beibei looked at the armor and replied to him.
"All the killing and sparing things were done by myself. It has nothing to do with the hand of the sleeve......"
"I know this, I won't be embarrassed!"
North Chenbei Road.
Chen Beibei has always been very familiar with the story of the sleeve hand, and the sleeve hand was originally a monster that made people feel pity. How could Chen Beibei be embarrassed.
"I ...... What I want Onmyoji-sama to promise me is not this ......"
The armor looked a little hesitant.
"What's that?"
Chen Beibei asked.
"Onmyoji-sama...... Let's get out......"
The armor floated towards the door, and down the stairs to the first floor of the shroud shop.
Chen Beibei also followed: "Don't come here!" ”
Chen Beibei knew that the armor wanted to go out, so he must have something he didn't want others to hear. So Chen Beibei didn't let anyone else go downstairs.
The armor hovered silently on the first floor.
Surrounded by a variety of beautiful shrouds, the armor looks like an old antique that shouldn't belong to this era......
