After a short period of consideration, Lin Peijun and Lucifer decided to go to the Harajuku bookstore immediately. Fortunately www.biquge.info, judging from the map on their mobile phones, the Harajuku bookstore is not too far from the office building where they are located, only a few kilometers away, so the two of them did not take any transportation and walked directly to the road.

Since it was close to nine o'clock, there were not many pedestrians on the street, but the streetlights on the side of the road did not care how many people passed under them, and still lit every corner of the street as usual.

I said...... Isn't it too late for us to go? Lucifer's flat shoes landed on the ground with a rhythmic tapping sound, and he looked at his watch, a little worried that it might be a wasted effort.

"After all, Tiandu is also an international metropolis, many shops work two shifts during the day, and I visited several famous commercial streets a few days ago, and many shops, including bookstores, are open all night." Lin Peijun is full of confidence in this trip: "Even if the door is really closed, the worst result is to come back tomorrow morning...... It's not a big deal. ”

"Hmm...... That's right. ”

"Ah, it's here!" Lucifer was groaning when he heard Lin Peiyun's excited shouting, he looked in the direction Lin Peijun pointed, and sure enough, at the corner of the road, there was a shop that seemed to be small.

When they approached the store, they found that the signboard of the store was a wooden plaque that is almost impossible to see in big cities today, and on the wooden plaque, there were four powerful words written in gold lacquer, "Harajuku Shoten".

Thankfully, the bookstore seems to be still shining, so it must still be open.

The two pushed open the door and the next moment they entered the bookstore, they heard a somewhat old voice: "Welcome to Harajuku Bookstore." ”

The two of them followed the prestige, and soon saw that at the front desk of the bookstore, an old man with white hair with a wrinkled face stood up from his seat and welcomed them with a gentle attitude.

"Hello." Seeing that the old man was so old, Lucifer and the others did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly responded politely.

"Excuse me, are you here to buy books?" The gray-haired old man, holding a wooden cane, walked slowly past the front desk and walked towards the two of them.

"Uh...... Not really. Lin Peijun was a little embarrassed: "We came this time because we wanted to ask about something...... Are you the manager here? ”

"Ah, yes. I'm the manager here. The white-haired old man replied with a smile: "You guys came quite in time, my shop closes after ten o'clock in the evening every day." ”

"Actually...... We're here to ask...... Store managerDo you know a young lady named Yi Siyue? ”

"Oh, are you Satsuki's friends?"

"Satsuki?" Lin Peijun and Lu Xifa glanced at each other, thinking that there might be a drama.

"Yes, Satsuki has been coming to me to buy books since she was very young......"

"That'...... Grandpa, you should know Miss Yi Siyue, she has ......"

The old man tapped the cane in his hand and paused: "Yes, I have seen the news." Life...... It's really unpredictable......"

"I wonder if the murderer has been caught?"

Lin Peijun hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully: "This...... For the time being, I have not heard of any news that the suspect has been arrested by the police. ”

"Yes...... It's only been a few days, how could the murderer be caught so quickly. But ......" didn't know that when the old man said this, his words suddenly changed: "Since you can find this place, you should bring a token here, right?" ”

"Tokens?" The two of them were stunned for a moment, both of them were a little confused.

"It's a novel, a novel."

Lin Peijun reacted quickly, hurriedly took out the copy of "White Night Walking" from the handbag he was carrying, handed it to the old man, and asked cautiously: "Are you talking about this novel?" ”

The old man took the novel with his trembling right hand, turned directly to the last page, squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the handwriting on the last page, after a while, he finally confirmed something, handed the novel back to Lin Peiyun's hand, and nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, it's this novel." ”

"Come with me, Satsuki has something to give you."

"May I ask ......" Lin Peijun looked confused, and just wanted to ask something, but was directly interrupted by the old man.

"If you have any questions, I'll ask later, anyway, come with me first." The old man babbled and said, "I can't move that thing as an old man." ”

Seeing this, Lu Xifa and Lin Peijun had no choice but to press the doubts in their hearts first, and followed the old man into the bookstore.

When he arrived at a room that looked like a storage room, the old man walked to the corner, where an unknown object covered with a white cloth was placed on the table, and the old man tore open the covered white cloth, revealing the contents of the ......

It was a metal box close to a cube, not big enough, only the size of an ordinary person's head, but it really didn't look like something that an old man from the bookstore manager could move at will.

"This is what Satsuki left for you, take it." The old man hunched over and patted the box with a little dust from the white cloth he had just torn off.

"Are you sure this thing was left for us?" Lucifer asked, staring at the metal box, a little puzzled.

"Although I don't understand it either...... But when Satsuki handed this thing to me before, it was exactly like this-as long as you come here with the novel "White Night Walking" with my handwriting, no matter who it is, please be sure to put this safe in his hands! ”

"That's what the kid said."

Lucifer seemed to want to make sure again: "Whoever comes here with the novel can take this safe?" Anyone? ”

"That's right, anyone!" The old man nodded firmly, and then glared at Lucifer fiercely: "Hey, boy, don't look down on the old man's memory!" ”

……

On the way back, Lin Peijun and Lucifa walked side by side on the side of the road under the light of the street lamp.

Lin Peijun glanced at Lu Xifa, who was holding a metal safe next to him, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?" Need my help? ”

"It's okay." Lucifer's appearance was quite relaxed: "This safe is not heavy, and ordinary adult men can easily hold it...... My strength attribute is more than a dozen points, so it's not a problem. ”

"That's ......" Lin Peijun nodded, and then muttered: "What do you say Yi Siyue thinks?" ”

"What do you think?"

"This safe. What do you think will be in the safe? ”

"I don't know, maybe it's some clues or something...... Isn't that how detective movies are played? ”

"But I always think it's a little weird......"

"What's wrong?"

"This is the safe...... A person who is already dead would leave such a safe as if it were ...... It's like ......"

"As if you knew you were going to die, you deliberately left your hands behind, right?"

Lucifer glanced down at the safe in his arms and muttered under his breath.
