After hanging up the phone, Shen Xing was stunned for a while, feeling that this customer named Zhuo Datong was always a little weird.

It seems that he likes the wooden carving of the mask he has in the store, and is afraid that the mask will be bought by someone else, even if he can't come and buy it now, he has to call to confirm.

However, Shen Xing had already taken out the wood carving he had booked separately and locked it in the cabinet, as long as it didn't take too much time, the people called Zhuo Datong didn't have to worry about it at all.

The shop was open as usual the next day.

Shen Xing's current dexterity of his fingers is very strong, and if he devotes himself wholeheartedly, the speed of making wood carvings is at least three times that of before.

On this day in the store, I finished the wood carving of the wardrobe that had been ordered by a customer in advance, called the customer to pick it up, and made another mask, but it was only a half-finished product.

When it was almost noon, I received a call from Li Naijing.

Listening to each other's voices, it seems to be very tired.

Shen Xing was a little puzzled, since he talked to her on the phone yesterday, he felt that Li Naijing seemed to have something very important going on, and he couldn't even get out of his body, so he had to let Zheng Ruijun, who was still hospitalized, rush to Zhang Shu's house.

"There's a case here, and I might need your help." After the phone was connected, Li Naijing did not beat around the bush, but spoke directly.

"What case?" Shen Xingqi said.

"At Yungu Vocational College, we have sealed off that place inside the academy at the moment." Li Naijing said: "When you called me yesterday, I almost couldn't get out, but I also lost that you to call me." ”

"Is it that powerful?" Shen Xing was even more curious, "What is it?" ”

"We don't know for the time being, but we can only estimate that there is an anomaly lurking in the academy and needs to be dealt with." Li Naijing explained, "This anomaly can control a certain spatial range, so you have to be very careful after entering. ”

"And how soon will you start your next operation? I'll come here. Shen Xing asked.

"I'm going to prepare here, tentatively for tomorrow night, and the specific time will wait for my notice." Li Naijing hung up the phone after speaking.

Shen Xing knew that after Zheng Ruijun went to Zhang Shu's house, he was asked to return to the hospital for observation.

Because his body is already thin and thin, if the trouble of overdose of anesthetic is not completely solved, it will be difficult to leave the root of the disease at that time.

In other words, if Zheng Ruijun is here, Li Naijing will not let herself help.

Shen Xing bought more than 20 pairs of black rubber gloves, two bundles of sturdy ropes, several strong flashlights, a few lighters, a few lighters, and a mountaineering pickaxe for mountaineering, as well as two daggers, plus the telescopic stick given to him by the investigation team, the previous mask, foot cover, windbreaker, etc., which can be regarded as all available.

When I got home, I cleaned up all these things, then took out the set of necessary items, put them in my backpack, and waited for Li Naijing's call.

waited until noon the next day, when Li Naijing called and told him to start his action at eight o'clock in the evening and meet at the gate of Yungu Vocational College.

Shen Xing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why at night?" Can't you go during the day? Or is it that the anomaly only appears at night. ”

Li Naijing replied: "There is no difference between day and night, you will know when you go there." ”

I had an early meal with Fei Fei at home, and it was only six o'clock when I saw the time.

The two went downstairs to walk on the street together, and walked in the park three hundred meters away, and watched the square dance for a while.

Now the time of dusk seems to be earlier, and the weather is much cooler than before, after watching the square dance, in the learning machine store on the street, Shen Xing bought a children's phone watch for Fei Fei, and opened a calling card.

Sometimes she is not at home, so Fei Fei can easily contact herself.

It was almost seven o'clock when the two of them returned home.

Fei Fei sat on the sofa and couldn't put it down, fiddling with the dial of the phone watch, and looked at the manual for a while.

Shen Xing drank a glass of water, took his backpack, and said to Fei Fei: "I'll go out now, strive to come back before eleven o'clock, you close the door, don't open anyone who knocks." If there is anything you can call me directly. ”

Fei Fei nodded, didn't ask him where he was going, just admonished, "Stay safe." ”

Shen Xing was slightly stunned, turned his head to look at her, and saw that this girl began to fiddle with the watch settings again.

Check all the doors and windows to see if they are closed, and tell Fei Fei to close the bedroom windows before going to bed, and then close the doors and leave.

Out of the neighborhood, this place is not easy to take a taxi now, he turned left and prepared to walk to the vicinity of the park to take a taxi.

Not long after leaving the gate of the Ivy League, I walked back with a black backpack on my back, entered the community, and returned to the third floor from the left stairs.

Walking straight to the door of his house, Shen Xing did not take out the key to open the door, but knocked on the door.

The lights in the house were on, but no one responded.

Shen Xing didn't speak, he reached out and knocked on the door again, and just stood at the door, silent.

After a few moments, there was the sound of light footsteps in the room, followed by the sound of moving stools. Although the people inside seemed to be deliberately concealing the sounds, the legs of the stool collided with the ground, and inevitably made a movement.

Fei Fei had already moved a plastic stool inside the door, kicked off her slippers, climbed onto the stool, and looked out at the cat's eye on the door.

Originally, this door did not have a cat's eye, but after experiencing so many incidents, Shen Xing kept an eye and asked someone to install a cat's eye so that he could see the situation outside in the future.

After seeing Shen Xing standing outside the door, Fei Fei was stunned for a moment, and then took a closer look.

At this time, although the sky was dark, the voice-activated light outside the door was on, and she could see clearly that it was indeed Shen Xing outside.

"Did you forget your key?" Fei Fei carefully climbed down from the stool and asked.

Shen Xing outside the house didn't answer, but Fei Fei had already seen it clearly, it was indeed Shen Xing.

Remove the stool, twist the latch from the backlock, and open the door.

Shen Xing walked in without saying a word, put the backpack he was carrying on the sofa, and seemed not to be ready to go out, then walked into his bedroom, sat in front of the workbench, turned on the lamp, and sat quietly.

Fei Fei stood at the bedroom door and stared at him, feeling a little strange, and asked, "Aren't you going out?" ”

Shen Xing, who had his back to her, shook his head.

Fei Fei was even more strange, glancing at the backpack he had thrown on the sofa, which was bulging, and she walked over quietly, ready to unzip it to see what was inside.

Who knows how it can't be opened.

At this time, Shen Xing suddenly walked out, walked into the bathroom, turned on the hot water and took a basin, and after a while, he carried it to the living room and put it in front of Fei Fei.

"It's time to go to bed."

Fei Fei was surprised, but didn't say anything, took off her socks and put them aside, and put her feet in the footbasin, the water temperature was just right.

"Thank you, Uncle Shen! But isn't it too early to go to bed? Fei Fei smiled sweetly.

Shen Xing squatted in front of her, raised his head, pulled his facial expression, and then hooked the corners of his mouth on both sides, bent the corners of his eyebrows slightly, narrowed his eyes, and the muscles of his cheeks bulged hard, as if he had worked hard to make an expression.

Laugh!

But the horror of this smile made Fei Fei's heartbeat skip a beat.
