Chapter 173: The Sick Man in the Cloak
"Boss."
Ah Wei on the side stopped me, and it seemed that he finally couldn't help it,
I stopped what I was doing and waited patiently for his words.
"I want to ask that girl named Hu Xiaojiu, is it your girlfriend?"
I was a little hesitant, to be honest, Hu Xiaojiu and I haven't pierced the window paper until now, and I can clearly feel the admiration in her eyes when she looks at me.
But shemales have different paths, I have heard this sentence since I was a child, and it seems that as soon as I open my mouth and give an answer, I will violate the dogma of growing up.
I'm afraid that by then, even Xu Youqiang will definitely not stand by my side again.
"Sort of." I gave an ambiguous answer, "Are you interesting to her?" ”
I suddenly felt an inexplicable unhappiness, as if my wife had gone out and made her belly bigger.
Even if I didn't have a relationship with Hu Xiaojiu, I knew that I couldn't be with her, so I was still a little unhappy.
Ah Wei smiled a little shyly, a man with five big and three thick, his face suddenly showed a similar shy expression, which really made people's hearts flutter.
"It can't be said to be interesting, but this island of lawlessness is so dangerous, and she is a girl's family, and she has taken such a big risk to find you, the boss, which proves that she cares about you. If I could have a girlfriend who was bent on getting me out, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been so confused all these years. ”
Ah Wei's smile was mixed with a hint of bitterness, originally I had the thoughts of warning just now, and when I heard him say this, these thoughts disappeared completely.
Everyone has their own suffering, and I don't know what to say, so I can only tell him to hurry up and work.
When I filled a few cans of mud and sent it to the lottery office, I noticed that the person who gave me the sign was a different person, and it was not the man in the cloak last night.
"Brother, what about yesterday's brother? Why didn't you see him today? ”
I asked by pretending to be unintentional, and the security team immediately frowned at me with a wary expression.
"What are you asking for? None of your business, do your job, and talk nonsense, I'll tear your tongue off! ”
I knew very well that the other party was definitely not joking, and if I continued to ask, he would definitely rip my tongue off.
I could only be sloppy about this, and left stupidly, Ah Wei, who came with me, looked behind me, "Boss, do you want to know why that person didn't come?" ”
"Do you have a way?" I heard what he meant and felt hopeful, and Ah Wei laughed at me twice, made a gesture, and turned to leave.
Familiarly approached the person in charge, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one and handed it to his mouth.
The two of them spoke again, and Ah Wei trotted towards me.
"Why do you still have this thing?"
"Of course, it's a stick." Ah Wei was uneasy, "I have a lot of inventory, boss, do you want it?" ”
"No, I don't smoke." I thought for a moment and said, "You might as well give me two packs, this thing seems to be pretty easy to use on this island." ”
Ah Wei nodded, and then told me the reason why the cloaked man was not there.
It turns out that the man in the cloak is also a freak on this island, usually taciturn, and he doesn't like to play tricks with other members, so he can be said to be an outlier.
However, he was very appreciated by the Eagle Lord, and the reason why he didn't come today is said to be that he ran out to get drenched in the rain last night, accidentally contracted the wind cold, and recuperated in the room.
This flawed lie can be pierced at a glance, yesterday was clearly a sunny day, where did the rain come from?
I'm afraid it was yesterday that I did something to him, and the scars on my hands have not healed, revealing my feet.
Either he was taken away by the person behind him, or he was halfway back conscious, and he really thought that he was like Hu Xiaojiu's charm to him, and he couldn't think of committing suicide.
No matter what point it is, it proves that we are safe for the time being, as long as the people behind us don't follow the vine and find me and Hu Xiaojiu, we can still move freely for a while.
When I came out, I still took the strange stone with me, and I thought that after finishing my work, I would go back to my residence to talk to Brother Sun and Brother Xia about what I found yesterday.
At the same time, let them see what the runes on this stone are, they know more than I do, and I am sure to get the answer from them.
After getting off work, I didn't even have time to change the supplies, so I left in a hurry amid Ah Wei's shouts, and when I returned to my residence, I waited for a long time, but I didn't see the shadows of Brother Xia and Brother Sun.
I wanted to go out to find them, but as soon as I stepped out of the threshold, I suddenly remembered something.
After coming here for so long, I still don't know what Brother Sun and Brother Xia are responsible for and what work they are doing here.
Except for their names, I didn't know anything about the rest of the content.
It wasn't until I waited in my room more and more urgently that I heard footsteps outside the door.
The door opened. I saw Brother Sun and Brother Xia appearing at the door with a pot of meat, and when they saw me, Brother Sun was stunned, his face was happy, and he walked towards me with difficulty.
I hurriedly took the basin from his hand. Don't forget to say hello to Brother Xia, Brother Xia said "um", and reacted coldly.
It's not surprising to me that he's always had this attitude towards me, and if one day he's enthusiastic about me, I'll be worried.
"You're such a kid, why do you have such a big idea? Aren't you afraid of being found out by them? ”
For Brother Sun's reprimand with concern, I nodded hurriedly, and I also knew that I had done something hasty, and under the circumstances at that time, I was not worried about Hu Xiaojiu alone.
"Brother Sun, Brother Xia, I came back this time because I made other discoveries, and I want you to see if you know something."
I took out the stone I was carrying in my arms and put it in front of Brother Sun, and since Brother Xia couldn't see it, I simply saved this procedure.
Taking the stone in my hand, Brother Sun frowned and looked at it carefully for a long time, and his face suddenly changed.
Brother Xia, who sensed his reaction, immediately frowned, "What's wrong?" What did he show you? ”
"This is ......" Brother Sun's voice suddenly became extremely hoarse, looking at the stone in his hand, he slowly raised his head, his eyes were complicated, "This stone is painted with a Soul Snatching Spell, where did you get this thing?" ”
"What?" When Brother Xia turned his head to me, he was clearly full of anger, "Don't say it quickly!" How did you get this kind of harmful thing? ”
The reaction of these two people was surprisingly strong, and it also made me know that this thing must not be a good thing, otherwise how could the two of them react to such a big thing.
I can only tell you the truth. However, he didn't tell them about the basement, and it was useless to tell them two until he found new clues.
"It's getting more and more complicated."
Brother Sun sighed, he thought the same as I thought, so it made me have more and more headaches.
Originally, it was already difficult to survive on this island, but I didn't expect so many troubles.
Looking at the stone in his hand, Brother Sun also told me what this Imperius curse was.
