"I see."

Suddenly, I continued, "So you still have beads in your hands?" ”

The hoarse voice shook his head and said, "There were originally three, but now there are no ......."

I was surprised and asked, "How?" Is this thing still a consumable? ”

He replied, "Of course not." ”

I then asked, "Where did the beads go?" ”

He patted my backpack with his hand and said, "You have one in this bag, the little girl from the Liu family has one, and one was sold to the surname Qiao." ”

"What?!"

I said in surprise: "I can figure out the one that was sold to Qiao Er, but the other two were found by us, could it be that you placed them in advance?" ”

He nodded and said, "I put the one in the stone box in the lonely mountain, and the one in the stone city is sealed under the glass meteorite." ”

"This ......"

He made it clear where the two beads came from, which at least meant that he knew where they were, and that only I knew the origin of the beads in my backpack.

I still felt that something was not right, and after thinking about it, I asked, "Why are you doing this?" Whether it's hiding or selling, there's always a reason, right? Do you just want to hide it and let us find it? ”

"Huh."

The hoarse voice laughed lightly, and he said: "How come, the two hidden ones were originally intended to be left for the people of 653 to study, but they were both taken away by you; As for the one sold to the surname Joe, I just want them to settle down and save them from doing some things like jumping off the wall in a hurry. ”

What he said didn't sound inappropriate, but I still found it a little hard to believe that he could hand over the beads or sell them properly. Is it just for our peace?

I couldn't figure it out, so I continued to ask him why, and he kept laughing and not saying a word, which made me even more confused.

I thought about it for a while, changed the question and asked, "If you don't talk about this, can you talk about 653?" Why bother to hide it and leave it for them? Can't you just give it to them? ”

"This ...... It's complicated to say......"

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "The whole thing has to start with 653 learning that we are still alive......"

Originally, 653 had been working on how to break his curse, until he later found out that they were both alive, which was great news for 653.

Knowing that the rest of the people who left were already dead, their survival shows that the two of them used some method, and may even have solved the secret.

However, both of them have been hiding their whereabouts, which has thwarted 653's plan to find someone.

653 found my grandfather and Zhang Bancheng for the purpose of finding the two of them, but after so many years of hard work, there has been no result.

People always have to show their heads when they live, and I asked them with some suspicion how they hid for decades without being discovered, and his answer surprised me a little.

He said: "To live as another and no one is aware. ”

I frowned, "What do you mean?" ”

He continued: "When your grandfather was young, I used his credentials and imitated his handwriting, then your father, and finally you. ”

I felt a little incredible, and my eyes widened and I said, "You mean you've been impersonating us for so many years?" ”

He nodded: "So to speak, but we don't have many opportunities to show up, so we didn't 'collide' with you, nor did we show up, we just ......"

He was a little reluctant to speak, and I asked, "Just what?" ”

He continued: "In recent years, technology has developed, and monitoring equipment is everywhere, so we have fewer opportunities to come out, and even if we do, we can't show our faces......

I can understand what he said, and it's no wonder they're all wearing hoodies.

Thinking of this, something suddenly occurred to me, and I hurriedly asked, "That...... So, was it you who wore black and a hood before? ”

He nodded.

I always thought that the man in black had no ill will towards us, and even seemed to be helping us, so that's what happened.

I thought for a moment and asked, "Did you send the letter we received?" ”

He looked up at me again and asked, "Which one?" ”

I scratched my head and said, "All." ”

He pointed to my backpack, "Except for the two letters in your bag, the rest are left by the two of us." ”

"Oh?"

This was a bit of a surprise to me, but when I thought about it, I immediately understood the point, because the rest of the messages were like warnings and reassurances, and the two letters in the backpack were more like fuses to lure us in.

I frowned, "So, you've been warning us not to get involved?" ”

He nodded.

I continued to ask, "Then who sent the two letters in my bag?" 653？ ”

He then nodded.

I scratched my head and said, "That's not right, right? I can figure it out that they imitate handwriting, but the picture is this...... This ......"

He sighed: "Alas! I've seen the two letters, and the photos are real, but the contents of the letters are fake, and they're just trying to get you out of here. ”

I was even more puzzled when I heard this, and asked, "I can understand the fake letter, but what if the photo is real?" Could it be your picture? ”

I just asked casually, but I didn't expect him to nod and say: "The photo of that group of altars was taken by Han Yan at the bottom of the lonely mountain, and the other group photo of the three people was also taken by her, the person on it is us, the other girl is a Mongolian girl, you know her granddaughter, it is that Qiqige." ”

At this time, I had already taken out the photo from my bag, looked at the photo of the three of them, and said in disbelief: "Do I look so similar to you?" ”

The fat man also squeezed over, pointed to the photo and said, "Yes, it's obviously me on this......"

The hoarse voice shook his head and said: "The main thing is that you are preconceived, the most intuitive thing in the photo is the body type, which is easy for you to have the illusion that you want to do it, in addition, the face on it is the size of a sesame seed, and how many details can be seen, in fact, there are at most three or four points of image." ”

I made a closer look at the face on the photograph and saw that there was some truth to what he said, perhaps as he said.

But after thinking about it, the question came again, so I continued to ask, "Even if the people in this photo are you, where did those people in 653 get this picture?" Haven't you been hiding it all the time? ”

The hoarse voice lowered his head and said a little sadly: "These photos are all cold, as well as letters, notes, etc., everything has been copied by them......"

"Oh."

I thought about it for a while and said: "When they take away things, they will naturally look for them, and it turns out that we are similar in appearance, so they concocted fake letters to lure us into the game. Can't you just come to us? ”
