Maruko shop.

It's a small and sophisticated shop, and the environment inside is very clean.

It's a very different style from the town of Scarborough, which is the casual, rough kind of place.

So the business of the Maruko shop has always been very cold, and now the time of the market has passed, so there is only one girl who looks like the proprietress in the entire Maruko shop.

It is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl wearing a red kimono, and the cuffs of the kimono are tied with the same red silk ribbon to prevent the cuffs of the kimono from getting dirty while working, not to mention that this is a meatball shop, and if the sleeves of the kimono touch the meatballs, it will make people feel very unhygienic.

The girl was supporting her chin with her own hands, lying on the glass counter, and the clean face of the girl was reflected in the glass.

"What do you need to eat?"

The girl saw Xia Mu and Jiaotu walking into the store, so she asked.

Such a young and beautiful girl actually runs a ball shop in Scarborough Town, Xia Mu has never heard of such a thing.

"Excuse me...... What do you need to eat? ”

The girl saw that Xia Mu seemed to be thinking about something, so she asked again, although it was the second time she asked, but there was no trace of displeasure in her voice and tone, but a very polite and polite inquiry.

Xia Mu came back to his senses, just now Xia Mu was thinking about why such a young and beautiful girl ran a ball shop in this place, but the business was so cold that she didn't notice this matter at all.

"Jiaotu, what do you want to eat, you can say something."

Xia Mu looked at Jiaotu and said softly.

"Three Daifuku cakes, a string of octopus balls, a string of pickled cabbage balls, and corn balls......"

Jiaotu said, pointing to the pictures of balls painted in different colors on the menu.

"Jiaotu, have you eaten so much?"

Xia Mu asked.

"Well, if you can't finish eating, you can take it again on the way back."

Pepper replied.

Before, Xia Mu and Beng Jing had already eaten a lot of things with Jiao Tu, but now Xia Mu and Beng Jing didn't want to eat like balls again.

The balls ordered by Jiao Tu were for one of her shares.

"Then let's find a place to sit down."

Xia Mu looked at Jiaotu and said to her.

The meatball shop is small, with only four long tables, but each table is clean and has a nice feel.

Xia Mu chose a position against the window, such a position that can look at the scenery outside the window when he is bored, at least he doesn't have to pay attention to the pepper picture who is eating.

"It's obviously a very good meatball shop, since it's so deserted......"

Jiaotu looked at the back of the girl in a red kimono who walked into the kitchen and said slowly.

When Jiaotu said these words, there was obviously a feeling of regret in it.

"Maybe the merchants in Scarborough don't like meatballs. After all, they like food like wine and meat. ”

Xia Mu explained.

It was already evening, the sun's rays were dimming, and on the wall of an abandoned house not far away, a vine of sunset flowers climbed along the mossy wall.

The white sunset flowers were quietly put away in the twilight, but Xia Mu and the others saw such a scene through the window glass of the pill shop at this time.

The white sunset flowers, under the influence of glass and dim yellow light, also seem to have turned into light yellow, looking a little less pure, but a little more related to memory.

"Your balls are here!"

The girl's shallow voice sounded in the ears of Xia Mu and Jiao Tu.

The sound is the same as the light outside.

It's very light, it's very shallow, and even if it's abrupt, it won't make people feel uncomfortable.

What a gentle woman......

The meatballs were placed in front of Jiaotu, and they looked delicious.

"Thank you."

Jiaotu said gratefully.

"It's okay, if you need help, just call me, I'm right at the counter over there."

The girl in the red kimono said to Jiaotu with a shallow smile on her face.

After the girl finished speaking, she returned to the glass counter, supported her head with her right hand, and looked out the window in this leisurely and comfortable posture.

However, the girl's gaze would still sweep Xia Mu and Jiaotu from time to time.

After all...... It's her guest!

……

A yard where the grass grows wildly.

The next day's sunlight fell on Chen Beibei's bed through the window, and the dazzling eyes made Chen Beibei wake up.

It was seven o'clock in the morning.

Chen Beibei propped up his upper body with both hands and moved back, looking at the headboard of the bed.

Although already awakened.

But I definitely don't get up right away, because when I wake up in the morning, that period of time seems to be extraordinarily precious, and it seems to be a longer time than other times.

At such a time, Chen Beibei is generally used to sign in to the game, place enchantment cards, foster gods, and say hello to the bigwigs in the Liao channel.

It only took about five minutes to do this.

"Master, you're awake."

Guan Hu poked his head out of the bamboo pipe, looked at Chen Beibei, and said softly.

Guan Hu has always lived in the same house as Chen Beibei.

However, Chen Beibei slept on the bed, while Guan Hu slept in his own bamboo pipe.

The fragrance of the bamboo tube can make Guan Hu's heart become calm, and only in the bamboo tube can Guan Hu really sleep well.

"Well, Guan Hu, we're going to go to that auction tonight, maybe we won't sleep all night, so at this time, you can sleep a little longer, and you don't have to rush to get up."

Chen Beibei looked at Guan Hu and said to her.

Last night, the old man had officially invited Chen Beibei to participate in the Charm Auction, and Chen Beibei had already agreed. So Chen Beibei will definitely go tonight.

"I can't sleep when I'm already awake, and it doesn't matter if I don't sleep for a night, master, let me accompany you."

Guan Hu got out of the bamboo pipe, jumped on Chen Beibei's bed, stood next to Chen Beibei's hand, and said to him.

"Okay."

Chen Beibei replied.

"Recently, the things that the master thinks about seem to have changed more, especially after the old man appeared, the owner didn't sleep last night......"

Guan Hu's black eyes look very deep and pure.

It's a pair of very beautiful eyes.

However, when looking at Guan Hu, Chen Beibei couldn't help but look away.

Because when looking at Guan Fox's eyes, Chen Beibei felt that this little white fox seemed to be able to see through his heart.

"Hmm."

Chen Beibei looked at Guan Hu and nodded.

For Guan Hu, Chen Beibei didn't want to hide it, after all, Guan Hu has always been the kind of monster that understands people's hearts.

And Guan Hu will not tell others what Chen Beibei said to her.

Because of this, in front of Guan Hu, Chen Beibei does not need to hide it.

"The melon planting technique used by that old man looks magical, and the enchantment used by those men in black seems to be very powerful, how many people in this world can use these magical spells, and what are they doing now? That's exactly what I'm thinking. I knew that there would be no answer, but I couldn't help but think about it......"

Chen Beibei looked at Guan Hu and said to her.

"Yesterday the old man said, 'There will be a lot of people like the owner at the auction.'"

That's why the owner made up his mind to go to the auction to have a look, right?

In this case, the question that the master has in mind may be answered......"

Guan Hu's eyes kept staring at Chen Beibei's face, and when he spoke, he never moved away.

"Hmm."

Chen Beibei replied.

Night came quickly.

This night, compared to the previous night, the moon in the sky has become thinner.

It's a crescent moon like a silver hook.

However, because the moon was dimmer, the stars in the sky were much brighter than the previous night.

"Beautiful Starry Sky ......"

On the way to the auction site on Chunyu Street, a sigh flowed out of Guan Hu's mouth.

It's a heartfelt thought.

The black night sky is dotted with countless stars, and if you look closely, you will see that the stars are arranged in a wonderful pattern.

Such a scene is indeed beautiful!

The intersection with the words "Chunyu Street" written on it can be seen at a glance from a long distance.

After all, the three characters of Chunyu Street are located in a very high position, and they are arranged with very bright neon lights, which are easy to distinguish at night.

"Master, there is Chunyu Street in front."

Gu Xuaniao, who was walking in front, turned around and reminded Chen Beibei.

When Gu Won Bird reminded Chen Beibei, his hand was on his umbrella sword, obviously, Gu Won Bird was closer to Chunyu Street, so he became more vigilant.

The Enchantment Master I met last night.

Gu Yu Bird will not easily forget.

"Go on, go straight to the place you were yesterday, the empty crossroads."

Chen Beibei looked at Gu Huoniao and said lightly.

With so many gods by his side, Chen Beibei's heart was not afraid.

Although Chen Beibei knows that the current Chunyu Street is no longer the same. It's no longer the land of smoke and willows it used to be, but a very dangerous place.

When I walked to the intersection of Chunyu Street.

Chen Beibei and they saw four people, three men and one woman, the three men were all wearing navy blue robes, and the woman was wearing a pink robe.

Although it is a robe, it is the kind of style that slims the waist.

It's the kind that will be easy to move.

It doesn't look like an ordinary person, and ordinary girls don't make clothes like this for convenience.

Because ordinary girls pay more attention to whether the clothes look good or not.

"It's the four men in black last night......"

When walking, the dog god deliberately slowed down, naturally appeared beside Chen Beibei, and then reminded softly.

Inugami can tell who they really are by the smell of their bodies.

For this, it is worth believing.

"Well, leave them alone, let's go inside."

Chen Beibei's voice was also very low, because at this time, Chen Beibei and the others were already very close to the four people.

"We're here for the Charm Auction."

Chen Beibei walked up to the four people and thought about them.

At this time, the four people stood respectfully in front of the two pillars at the entrance of Chunyu Street, obviously playing the role of welcoming guests.

Because of this, Chen Beibei said this directly.

"Please come in."

The girl in the pale red robe, that is, Minako Yukimura, said to Chen Beibei.

She looks like a very immature little girl.

Probably twelve or thirteen years old.

But what he did, and the tone of his words, was indeed very serious.

Last night, they wanted to kill Gu Huoniao and Chen Beibei, but they were stopped by the old man, and the old man's attitude towards Chen Beibei was also very good.

When they faced Chen Beibei today, they looked very polite, as if they had completely forgotten what happened last night.

Of course, it is also possible that they just thought that Chen Beibei did not recognize their true identities, so they naturally treated Chen Beibei and them as strange guests.

Chen Beibei: They didn't expose the fact that they already knew that they were the men in black last night.

Just walked into Chunyu Street.

Head to the empty intersection, where the auction will take place.

Before the Scarborough Market was over, there would be a number of beautiful women standing at the crossroads, but now none of them were to be seen.

At the crossroads, I don't know when a large platform was erected.

The table is covered with red cloth, and the pillars on all sides are also wrapped in red cloth, which looks relatively comfortable. It gives a new, luxurious feel.

At least compared to the deserted Chunyu Street now.

This table has a luxurious feel to it.

"Master, there seems to be a ...... there"

Guan Hu whispered in Chen Beibei's ear.

As Guan Hu spoke, his eyes kept looking at a dark place under the newly erected platform.

It was because the shadows of the trees in the distance cast down, forming a small dark area, just in the lower right corner of the platform.

The man was curled up and motionless in the shadow of the trees, leaning against a platform covered with new red cloth, and there seemed to be something beside the man.

Because the distance is relatively far, and the location of that person is very dim, there is no way to see clearly.

"I'll go take a look!"

Holding his umbrella sword in his right hand, Gu Xuanniao walked towards the man curled up in the lower right corner of the platform.

There is not a trace of sound on Spring Rain Street at night.

Even Chen Beibei and the others held their breath, after all, what kind of person Gu Houniao was approaching, everyone didn't know.

Hold your breath and concentrate on the words.

can save Gu Bird at the moment when she is in danger.

Quiet.

Quiet.

Even if a pin falls on the ground, it can be heard clearly in the quiet environment.

The bird walked without making the slightest sound...... Take a hundred plating, and read the latest chapter of "Onmyoji-style God Don't Cry Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
