Chapter 103: What to do?
"Good evening, I'm Mu Bai."
"What's the matter?"
"How did you think about the dinner you talked about?"
"I'm sorry, I thought about it, but I still don't think I want to go, there are elderly people at home who need to be taken care of."
"It's okay, then let's make an appointment next time, by the way, the barbecue stall near the bar tastes good, I'm eating with my friends now, next time I'll be free."
"Okay, let's do it next time."
Putting down the phone, He Xin breathed a sigh of relief and finally ended the conversation with Mu Bai.
She didn't expect that she just admired Mu Bai's talent, but won his favor.
Why don't you go to the bar tomorrow? It's just a good time to avoid him.
Just as he was thinking this, he once again received a message from Mu Bai on his mobile phone.
This time, he's more blunt.
"He Xin, I like you, you don't have to reply to me right away, whether it's okay or not, we can all be friends, right? I'll let you discover the good in me.'"
This......
He Xin found that Mu Bai's words were like a needle, a needle with a thread.
At the same time, it can sew the other party's mouth shut.
He Xin found that he didn't know what to reply to and refused? But he said they were friends.
After hesitating for a while, she changed to a slightly more comfortable position while lying on the bed, and her fingers hesitated on the screen for a while, and finally, in a very tangled mood, she threw her phone aside and gave up replying to the message to Mu Bai.
Otherwise, just ignore him, don't go to the bar, and haven't known each other for long anyway.
He Xin sighed, but unfortunately the other party's beautiful singing voice was estimated to be unheard in the future.
Di Di β
It's the sound of the mobile phone again, is it Mubai again?
He Xin picked it up with apprehension and took a look.
Xu Nanxing: "How's it going? Is your father asleep? If I can, I'll use the Gathering Order.'"
Seeing the news, He Xin remembered what Xu Nanxing had explained, but she didn't expect to be so troubled by Mu Bai, and she almost forgot about her business.
According to Xu Nanxing, the memory of food will devour people's memories after they fall asleep, so she had the idea of using the search order after her father fell asleep.
So he got up, He Xin tiptoed open the door of his father's room, and a calm and orderly snoring came from inside, obviously his father was asleep, and He Xin, who was relieved, closed the door lightly, and quickly went back to the room and sent a message to Xu Nanxing.
The night was completely dark, and under a broken street lamp on the side of the road, a figure stood there, his head seemed to be raised, looking faintly at the sixth floor of the apartment in front of him, where the lights were still on, it was He Xin's residence.
The figure stood still until the lights in He Xin's house were turned off, and he took a step to leave, and as he walked past the next street lamp, the light hit his faceβa pale, expressionless face.
It's wood white.
He actually watched from downstairs at He Xin's house.
What does he want to do?
β¦β¦
In a 24-hour convenience store on the side of the road.
Xu Nanxing and Gao Qingzhu were buying the food they needed for the night, in case they waited too late and went hungry.
"You buy so much?" As soon as Xu Nanxing turned around, she saw that Gao Qingzhu had bought a lot of food and put it on the counter, and it was in her hand, and there were still two rice balls left unchecked.
Gao Qingzhu is so thin, she eats so many things? I didn't see much of her eating before.
"Is it much?" I only heard her mutter, "I bought it together for breakfast tomorrow, three rice balls, a box of lunch, two boxes of noodles, and two soft-boiled eggs." β
When he heard that it was with tomorrow morning's breakfast, Xu Nanxing didn't think it was too much. But it's really inconvenient to carry so many things.
The two of them were about to leave the convenience store after paying, but as soon as they stepped out of the door, Xu Nanxing quickly retracted back into the store, and pulled Gao Qingzhu to hide behind the wall.
"What's wrong?" Gao Qingzhu saw who he was hiding, and deliberately lowered his volume when questioning, so as not to be heard by the person he was hiding.
Hush!
Xu Nanxing made a silent gesture and secretly glanced out of the window, and Gao Qingzhu followed his line of sight and looked out.
Be...... Wood White!
What is he doing around here so late?
In other words, in order to make it easier to catch Shi Yi, the two simply booked a hotel room near He Xin's house, and the distance from the hotel to her house was only a few minutes away, which could basically be said to be next to each other.
But at such a late hour, why did Mu Bai appear here?
Xu Nanxing was puzzled, could it be that he also lived near here?
"He won't be following He Xin, right?" Gao Qingzhu thought on the bad side, "When he chatted with He Xin before, he seemed to like He Xin quite a lot, wouldn't he want to pursue her?" β
"Tracking? Isn't that a pervert? Xu Nanxing began to dislike Mu Bai, "It looked quite normal for him to talk to me before, if he really has this habit of stalking, then ...... Hehe. β
As he spoke, Xu Nanxing laughed dryly, obviously expressing his hatred for the behavior of stalking.
"Wait."
It seemed that for a moment, Xu Nanxing smelled the faint demonic aura again, the same as the one he encountered in the bar, the demonic aura was hidden, and he couldn't be sure whether it was from the food memory.
After waiting for a while, after Mu Bai disappeared from his sight, Xu Nanxing immediately rushed out of the convenience store, quickly got into the alley and took out the search order, and when the search order was hidden in the air and flew out, Gao Qingzhu caught up.
It didn't take more than a minute or two, and Gao Qingzhu almost thought that Xu Nanxing was going to leave him, but fortunately, he followed quickly.
"Didn't He Xin's family's collection order already be used before? Why do you suddenly use another one? Gao Qingzhu was puzzled and asked with a pant.
"I smelled that demonic aura again just now, so I want to confirm it with the search order." Xu Nanxing frowned, "I always feel that Mu Bai is a little suspicious. β
"You think he's a food memory?" Gao Qingzhu saw what he thought.
"Yes." Xu Nanxing nodded and said, "If the search can confirm that he is Shi Yi later, we will arrest him tomorrow." β
"How?"
"Just look at it, I'll do the work."
"Yo, it's pretty manly." Gao Qingzhu praised him.
As soon as he boasted, Xu Nanxing began to tremble: "That's!" Don't look at it eitherβ"
Halfway through, he suddenly fell silent.
I saw that he closed his eyes and felt something, and after a while, he opened them again, and his expression sank: "I can't sense the search order." β
Gao Qingzhu was stunned: "What does it mean that you can't sense it?" β
"Probably ruined." Xu Nanxing's brows furrowed, "Maybe the search order was discovered." β
"Who did it? That wood white? β
Xu Nanxing couldn't be sure, but the person who followed Su Luo Ling was indeed Mu Bai, and no one else seemed to do this except him.
However, no demons were found before the order was destroyed.
This will only make Xu Nanxing more suspicious of Mu Bai's identity.
"Let's go, let's go back to the hotel." Xu Nanxing hugged Gao Qingzhu and said.
"This is going back?" Gao Qingzhu looked at him puzzled, "Don't you want to guard?" β
"At least He Xin's family's collection order is still there, if there is anything, I can feel it as soon as possible, it's okay, go back."
There were no lights in the alley, only the silvery white rays of the moonlight that shone in formed a hoarfrost on the ground.
Watching the two walk out of the alley, Mu Bai stood on the top platform of a building and looked at them solemnly.
And at his feet, a half-burned search order, a gust of night wind blew, swept it away, and fell into the endless black.
β¦β¦
On the morning of the second day, Gao Qingzhu was woken up by a bell, and when he opened his eyes, he found Xu Nanxing answering the phone.
It didn't take long for him to hang up the phone with a solemn face.
"Let's go, go to He Xin's house."
Dropping a sentence, Xu Nanxing got dressed and pulled Gao Qingzhu over in a hurry.
There were still some Gao Qingzhu who didn't understand the situation, and it wasn't until He Xin's house that she understood the reason why Xu Nanxing showed that expression.
It turned out that He Xin's father had more serious memory loss after a night, and he didn't seem to remember who He Xin was, let alone his own name.
There is a search order, and if you eat memories, you should be found if you come to devour memories, but why, there was no movement at all last night? Even Xu Nanxing didn't notice the slightest thing wrong.
He Xin cried, she sat on the sofa in the living room, watching her "strange" father shouting loudly that he wanted to go home, but he couldn't help anything, she was anxious, but she could only pull him and keep telling him that this was his home.
Xu Nanxing inspected the entire room to make sure that everything was okay before he removed the search order and quietly leaned against the door.
His brows were condensed, and his cheeks were slightly gloomy, as if he was thinking.
Gao Qingzhu approached and asked, "How did Shiyi do it?" β
Xu Nanxing sighed, "It's that I didn't think about it." β
"How?"
"I only asked Soluo Ling to patrol this house, but I didn't expect He Xin's father to go out."
After speaking, Xu Nanxing pursed his lips, and the direction was the pair of black old-fashioned cloth shoes on the shoe rack.
"When I went out yesterday, the shoes were in the first row, and when I came today, I saw that they were placed in the second row, He Xin doesn't wear this kind of shoes, and he usually won't touch them if he doesn't tidy up and clean them, but since it moved, it means that He Xin's father has gone out, and it is very likely that he went out under the control of Shi Yi."
After listening to his explanation, Gao Qingzhu suddenly understood, but then another question came to mind: "According to what you say, how do you feel like Shi Yi knows that you have set up a search order here?" He found out we were looking for him? β
Xu Nanxing is also very strange, it stands to reason that no one will know, but what makes him even more puzzled is why this food memory is staring at the memory of an old man?
Is he sick in the head?
Xu Nanxing, who was speechless, scolded in his heart.
Today is the last day of this month's recovery of demon power, if there is no way to catch the food memory today, then Su Mu can only solve it, but Xu Nanxing, who can recover his demon power, is even higher than Su Mu's mana, and it is the best time to grasp today.
While feeling helpless, Xu Nanxing suddenly asked He Xin: "He Xin, do you know where Mu Bai lives?" We saw him come to this neighborhood yesterday, and it's about the distance of two roads after leaving the neighborhood. β
"What did you say?!" He Xin stood up suddenly, "He also sent a message to me at about 9:20 last night to tell me that he was having a barbecue with friends near the bar, so when did you meet him?" β
Xu Nanxing thought for a while and replied, "It's about half past nine." β
The bar was at least half an hour's drive away, and he couldn't have reached it in a few minutes.
If Xu Nanxing really saw him, it would mean that Mu Bai was lying.
But why did he lie? He Xin was puzzled, and even a little afraid, and even felt that he had followed her to come to her neighborhood.
If that's the case, isn't Mu Bai a complete stalker? Or did he have another reason?
Xu Nanxing was already suspicious of Mu Bai, which made him even more curious about what kind of strange thoughts Mu Bai had.
"What happens after that?" Gao Qingzhu's words brought the two people who were in deep thought back to reality.
Afterwards?
Xu Nanxing also wants to know, what should he do after that?
