I. Initial Record 6 Photo Studio

"I suddenly wondered if it would be more realistic to report missing persons to the police." Bai Luo said.

"Makes sense." Liu Li nodded.

Bai Luolian hurriedly said: "But, didn't Xiao Yu tell us not to blatantly look for him?" ”

"Isn't 'you' blatant enough?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It seems to be an eh...... What should I do? You won't really report the crime, will you? That's a lot of movement, too. And maybe it will have some effect, maybe Xiao Yu is still hiding and not letting us find him at all. ”

"And there's no clue, right? Except that there was a black gas floating on his body all the time. But the police don't pay attention to that. Liu Li frowned, "Maybe...... We can go to him one by one without looking at the black gas. Don't you have a letter from him? ”

"Well, there's no sender's address on it."

"Some couriers seem to be able to, but if you look at the postmark, which courier is it? Maybe someone at the post office will be a little impressed. ”

Bai Luolian took out the letter, looked at it quietly, her eyes widened in surprise, and hurriedly said, "No ......"

"Huh?!" Liu Li was also surprised and puzzled, thought about it, and continued to ask, "...... Is there something missing? That...... Stamp? There are always stamps. ”

Bai Luolian looked at it carefully and shook her head.

Bai Luo suddenly asked, "How did you get these letters?" ”

"It was already on my desk. I thought you received it. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's not ......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That ......"

Bai Luolian was thinking about it, Liu Li and Bai Luo glanced at each other, and suddenly said, "The photo should also be washed out, right?" Maybe ask the photo studio. ”

"Oh, yes, even if Xiao Yu asked someone else to wash the photos, there would be some clues." Bai Luolian continued, and asked again, "Then, Liu Li, do you know where there is a photo studio here?" ”

Liu Li nodded and said, "I know, I know, but you go back first to help the two of them see what they have to prepare, and I'll go with Bai Luo." ”

"Is it far away?"

"Well, and I don't remember much."

"Hmm...... So, you two go to the photo studio, and I'll look for it from neighborhood to neighborhood? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That's fine, just be careful not to get lost, and we'll pick you up when the time comes. ”

Bai Luolian nodded and left.

"Let's go." Liu Li turned around and said to Bai Luo. Seeing Bai Luo nodding silently beside him, he asked again: "You also think that when Zhu Yu wrote those letters, he didn't leave at all, but just pretended to be gone, right?" ”

"Hmm."

"But why did he suddenly stop doing it again?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Ignorance. ”

You're going to die if you reply with a meaningful word?! Liu Li rolled her eyes in her heart, but still continued: "Zhu Yu should know Bai Luolian very well, it's impossible that she won't know that she will run out to find herself because of this." Could it be some reason? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Should. Whatever the reason, he brought Luo Lian here, and it hasn't appeared yet. ”

Zhu Yu also left clues for Bai Luolian to find herself...... But why did he do it? Moreover, he seems to be hiding from something more dangerous. Will he easily let Bai Luolian get involved? ”

"Naturally I don't want to. But sometimes, something you don't want to happen can't be avoided. However, Zhu Yu should try his best to avoid it, and he won't take the initiative to pull her in. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That bamboo feather also has some troubles. ”

"You've forgotten the possibility that those letters weren't written by Takeyu at all." Bai Luo said coldly.

Liu Li was stunned for a moment, nodded again, and said, "Indeed, there is still this possibility...... But who would want to lure Bai Luolian out? Why didn't Zhu Yu tell Bai Luolian, but pretended that he was gone? ”

"Maybe it's waiting for an opportunity, maybe he doesn't know who wants to lure Luo Lian out." Bai Luo's words changed, "...... However, this is only one possibility. ”

"Moreover, Uncle Chen also said that he helped Zhu Yu take a photo, right? Nam Kwon Hui also said that he had seen Zhu Yu. It may be that the letter was indeed written by Takeha, and not by someone else. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sure enough, let's find the photo studio that helped Zhu Yu wash the photos first. ”

"That's just as well." Liu Li responded, and frowned slightly, "However, where will Zhu Yu wash the photos...... Photo studios and print shops are possible. Besides, will others really remember? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ But in order to avoid people's eyes, I think I will go to a more remote place. If you can't find it, you can't help it. ”

So, the two searched for maps and prepared to check them one by one, and in order to avoid missing some photo studios that were privately opened by the people and not widely circulated, they would ask them specially. I searched for two or three to no avail, but at the last one I asked if there was a photo studio or printing shop that most people didn't know, and the boss replied: "There is no printing shop, there is one, but it's a little far from here." ”

"Really?"

"Of course, I'll only know until I've been here for a long time; It's impossible for someone like the new ones to hear about it. ”

"So what's that going on?"

"Oh, that's actually a photo studio from a long time ago. It used to be very prosperous, but later due to the construction of the city, it was too far away, and it could be said to be wild, and the residents there gradually moved away, and the photo studio was half deserted. But the old master couldn't give up, and his wife was still guarding somewhere. It should still be on. If you want to go, just go straight to the west side of the city. If you pass through an uninhabited neighborhood and see an old-fashioned house on the side of the road, you will be successful. ”

"Thank you." Liu Li thanked Bai Luo and walked out, "It's so biased, could it be the one that Zhu Yu went?" ”

"Quite possibly. Let's go. ”

"Walking?"

"Hmm."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's far west of the city. "It can be so far away that you can doubt life.

"How else to get there?"

"......" ojbk, you have the final say.

In the end, the two of them rode on a total x bike. However, it is true that you should use transportation, because after half an hour of cycling, you will see the so-called uninhabited community, and if you use it, I am afraid that you will not be able to come back at night.

After another 15 minutes or so, the two finally saw the old old house that appeared on the side of the road. Although the old house is on the side of the road, it is not far away, and it is located in an open field of weeds, which looks extremely desolate.

"It's quite remote here, too. But will anyone really live here? Liu Li said with some uncertainty.

Bai Luo only replied: "It's hard to say, after all, everyone has some local complexes, and the older generation is even more so, so it's reasonable to live here." Let's go check it out first. ”

Liu Li nodded and followed him. Standing in front of this old door, Liu Li didn't even dare to knock on the door, for fear that if he moved, the door would fall.

Looking at Bai Luo, he was frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.

Liu Li was a little puzzled, thought about it, but knocked lightly on the door and asked, "Hello, is there anyone here?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Wait a minute! Bai Luo hurriedly stopped. Liu Li looked at him, Bai Luo didn't have time to explain, "creak", the door finally opened, and an old man with dark skin and a thin shirt also appeared, looked at the two of them, and said with some surprise; "Ah, it's two children! How did you come to this wilderness? ”

"May I ask the old man, do you also have a photo studio here?" When Liu Li saw that someone was coming, he didn't stalemate with Bai Luo anymore, and asked politely.

"Ah...... Yes, indeed. Everyone moved, and I couldn't bear to be here, so I stayed. The old man smiled, "The two of you are here to wash photos?" Or are you here to take pictures? It's so biased, and it's a shame that you're looking for it. ”

"No, we'reβ€”"

"Ah, it's good to wash photos in the city, you must be here to take pictures, right?"

"No, we're forβ€”"

"Hey, look at me, I forgot to let you in and sit down, and I've been standing for so long! Come on, come in and sit down. ”

"No, no, it's not a big deal to stand." Bai Luo said suddenly.

Liu Li looked at the old man's old body and said, "Let's go in?" It's not good to let the old man stand all the time. ”

"Ha, little girl, I'm fine, my body is tough!" The old man smiled happily, "By the way, what kind of photos do you two want to take?" ”

"No, no, no, we're not here to take pictures, we're here to inquire about someone."

"Inquire about someone?" The old man looked puzzled.

Liu Li nodded, and was about to continue, when Bai Luo on the side suddenly interjected: "No, we are here to take pictures." ”

Now it was Liu Li's turn to be confused: What the hell is this guy doing? But I thought that Bai Luo must have his own reasons for doing this, so he didn't say anything.

"But the little girl said......"

She was embarrassed to say.

"That's right." The old man showed a smile that understood, "Then I'll go first and get some old photos of them before to show you, and you sit down first." ”

Bai Luo nodded, and after the old man walked into the room, he hurriedly pulled Liu Li and ran back to the bicycle again, saying, "Quick, go!" ”

"Why?"

"We'll explain later!"

Hearing the other party's rare hurried tone, Liu Li didn't dare to slack off, so he did so.

Hurrying back to the city, Liu Li didn't care about the unrelieved breathing, and asked, "Why did you run away first?" ”

"I wanted to tell you before, that old man is not human at all." Bai Luo's expression was serious, "I didn't feel the anger of someone in that room, and I didn't feel it after the old man appeared." ”

"What?" Liu Li's eyes widened, "But ...... He doesn't have any ghosts on him, huh? You can also walk freely in the sun, so it's unlikely that you're a ghost, right? ”

Bai Luo listened and looked at her, then nodded, frowned, and said, "So, I'm also very strange." I thought it was still dangerous, so I dragged you back first. ”

"Oh." Liu Li was a little curious, "However, why can you feel the anger of no one in him, but I can't?" You said that it has nothing to do with your eyes, and Bai Luolian is the same as you-"

"......" Bai Luo looked at her with some confusion, "Maybe it's because you're not too sensitive to 'qi', right?" After all, you haven't been exposed to this kind of stuff before. ”

"You've practiced Taoism before? Is Bai Luolian too? Liu Li was puzzled again, didn't she say that the Bai family was very taboo about this?

Bai Luo shook his head and said, "I was just born." Luo Lian is also like me, it may have something to do with our parents......" Speaking of this, Bai Luo quickly closed his mouth and diverted his gaze as if he had mentioned something that should not be mentioned.

Liu Li didn't ask, and looked to the other side.

Regarding the old man, Liu Li still couldn't figure out why this was the case. Could it be that it was because the old man was too weak to be angry, so Bai Luo misunderstood? No, unlikely; But if it's really not human, you can't see anything abnormal......

Just thinking about it, Bai Luo suddenly said, "Look." ”

Liu Li came back to his senses, looked at the direction Bai Luo pointed at suspiciously, and after taking a closer look, he noticed something, and his eyes widened in surprise.

It was just the way to the west of the city. And the old man, who appeared there at some point, was looking around, as if looking for something.
