I smiled, "Am I not looking like someone who can read?" By the way, would you go to their house to read? ”

Ai Ling, Long rolled her eyes, "I never like to read, let alone go to his old-fashioned bookstore to read, it's a complete waste of time and life, I'd rather sit on the side of the road in a daze." ”

I raised my eyebrows and asked suspiciously, "So you have been to their bookstore, otherwise how dare you say that other people's bookstores are old-fashioned?" ”

Ai Ling, Long gently slapped me, and pretended to be impatient and said, "I told you just now that I don't like to read, how can I still go to the bookstore?" It's just this person, just look at his dress, you know that he is a particularly old-fashioned and pretending to be a literary master, you naturally know what his bookstore tastes. ”

"What you said still reveals that you have research on this boss." I deliberately quipped.

Ai Ling, Long threw me a middle finger, "I don't want such an old man to stick upside down, how have I ever studied it, I just often meet him when I commute to work, he lives in the community not far in front, not to mention, that community is quite advanced, he shouldn't be short of money." ”

I smiled and pulled the car door, "Of course, if he was short of money, he wouldn't have opened the bookstore here." ”

Passing through the high-end community, Ai Ling, Long also specially pointed out to me, this community is a Soviet-style garden style, you don't need to ask to know that it is expensive to death, and the natural people who can live in it are either rich or expensive.

I asked Ai Ling about other things about Boss Ma, but she only knew that Boss Ma lived there and opened the bookstore, and she didn't even know his surname Ma.

Sending Ai Ling and Long home, I refused her invitation to invite me up for tea and drove straight to the hotel.

You Lao told me that after the time and space confusion, the people I knew and contacted before will come to the current time and space again, but his identity and position will change, black and white will be reversed, and good and evil will also change.

So does this Boss Ma have anything to do with Lin Jun, is he evil?

I called Zhao Heizi to the office, at this point he usually has nothing to do, and I am a little reluctant to call him now.

But he didn't complain, his face didn't stiffen in the slightest, and he listened very carefully to me about the strange bookstore owner.

"I don't know if I passed by that street by chance tonight and saw the bookstore and the boss Ma, or if all of this was deliberately arranged by the other party." I folded my hands on my chest and frowned, looking out at the deep night.

"I'll let people investigate the identity of that Boss Ma starting tomorrow, but the results of the investigation should only be his superficial information, and we still need to understand the specifics."

I nodded, "And his bookstore, it won't make any money at all, and it will lose a mess, what is the purpose of opening in the commercial street, which is also what I'm worried about." ”

Zhao Heizi stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "Are you worried that the bookstore is actually a secret contact point for their organization, or a core location with other uses?" ”

"Yes, it is very possible, but we must not startle the snake, and we must be careful and careful about the investigation of this horse boss, I can feel that this horse boss is very sensitive, and he feels, once there is any trouble, he will take measures to protect himself, and the consequences will be unimaginable." I took a sip of tea from my cup and slowly furrowed my brow.

"I know about the high-end community you mentioned, there is a partner who has a suite there, and I can learn about the daily life of the boss through him." Zhao Heizi said seriously, "As for other information, I will also investigate it cautiously." ”

I pinched my chin and let out a long exhale, "If this Boss Ma is really the opponent standing in our team, then this opponent is too powerful, he is not one of those brainless demons who only know how to kill people and absorb essence and vitality." ”

Zhao Heizi nodded, "I know that he has a great chance of being based on the leader and leader at the top of the pyramid of that organization, in short, no matter what kind of opponent he is dealing with, prudence comes first." ”

I chatted with Zhao Heizi for more than 20 minutes before leaving the hotel.

On the way back, the city was completely quiet, and as I rode through the night, I suddenly felt a sense of loneliness and loneliness.

As an exorcist, you shouldn't have these negative emotions, and I'm trying to restrain them, but it's too much for me to do.

Lying on the bed, I couldn't help but think of the freezing rain, and the sadness and pain poured into my chest.

If I hadn't insisted on bringing her over at that time, if I had listened to You Lao's words and let her go, I wouldn't have killed her.

Here I met Lin Jun, who is likely to come from that time and space, so will I also encounter another "ice rain" in this time and space?

Because of these messy human feelings, I had insomnia for half a night, which made me feel very guilty, and as punishment, I added an extra hour of cultivation to myself.

The next day, it was time for Xue Xiaxia to come home to give Wang Haitang psychological counseling, and I specially bought desserts from the cake shop and came back for them to eat.

I sat on the sofa and picked up the magazine and flipped through it, pricking up my ears to listen to the conversation in Wang Haitang's bedroom.

Xue Xiaxia's voice is very warm, she is talking to Wang Haitang about a movie, which tells the story of a man escaping from the wilderness, which is particularly inspirational and healing, she tells it very well, giving people a sense of immersion.

Ten minutes later, they came out, I quickly put down the magazine and stood up, and said with a smile, "Lawyer Xue has worked hard, come and try the dessert I just bought." ”

Xue Xiaxia smiled faintly, "No need, I don't eat sweet things at night." ”

"Are you afraid of gaining weight?" Wang Haitang blurted out.

I was taken aback, how can I talk to women about gaining weight, isn't that going to step on landmines, Wang Haitang is still too young!

Xue Xiaxia immediately felt a little unnatural, "I ......"

"Self-discipline is a very good thing, in fact, eating sweet at night is very unhealthy, we should also get rid of this habit and learn from Lawyer Xue."

Wang Haitang's mouth opened wide, and he seemed to have just realized that he had said the wrong thing.

Xue Xiaxia shook her head and stroked the hair hanging down from her sideburns, "Actually, it's not, it's just that I don't usually eat sweet, and I don't want to eat it at night, everyone's habits are different." ”

I was a little surprised, Xue Xiaxia's words were very face-saving, and she was not exactly a tireless knife mouth.

I sent her out, and when I got downstairs, she told me about "Huangliang County".

A friend of hers is a middle school history teacher who also likes to study history-related things.

After checking the information and literature, he found that a hundred years ago there was a place called "Huangqian County", because later generations felt that the pronunciation of "Huangqian" and "Huangquan" was easy to confuse and seemed very unlucky, so it was changed to "Yumen County".

It is very likely that the renamed "Huangqian County" is "Huangliang County", at least they are also very close, and there is no place name that is closer to "Huangliang County".

I couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, "'Huangqian County' and 'Huangliang County', this seems to be a little bit different, could it be a little too far-fetched?" ”

Xue Xiaxia said very seriously, "'Huangqian County' is only more than two hours' drive from the city, I think I can take time to go over and see if there are other clues similar to those in the dream, even if there are none, it only took four hours to go back and forth." ”

I thought about it in silence, the two place names are quite different, and there are great differences in pronunciation, and the history teacher is really reluctant to link them together.

But I don't want to reject Xue Xiaxia directly, hurt her face, how ungentlemanly.

So I nodded perfunctorily, "Okay, I'll find time to go over and have a look, maybe I can get some different clues from somewhere else." ”

"Okay, then I'll go back first." Xue Xiaxia smiled at me, turned around and got into the car.

When I got home, Wang Haitang sat on the sofa eating a piece of matcha cake, and when she saw me walk in, she put down the matcha cake and stood up, and asked embarrassedly, "Cousin, are you...... Would you like to eat a piece too? ”

I smiled and shook my head, "I don't eat, it's okay, you don't have to worry about gaining weight, just eat." ”

"Oh." Wang Haitang sat down and picked up the cake again, eating a little unnaturally.

I leaned on the armrest of the sofa and asked with interest, "What do you think of this lawyer Xue, have you listened to what I have been talking to you for the past two days?" ”

Wang Haitang stopped his mouth and thought about it seriously, "I think she is very good, I agree with what she said, and she is very gentle, giving me a feeling of a big sister." ”

I smiled comfortingly, "It's good that you think it's good, since you feel that kind of affection for her, you can open your heart and tell her what is in your heart, and if there is something you may have trouble talking to me." ”

Wang Haitang lowered his head a little shyly and played with the fork crampedly.

"Do you think 'Huangqian County' and 'Huangliang County' will be the same place?"

When I asked, Wang Haitang raised his head sharply and looked at me, "'Huangqian County? ’”

"Yes, a place name found by lawyer Xue's friend, they think it is very close to 'Huangliang County', what do you think?" I rubbed my temples that were a little sour and looked at Wang Haitang's surprised face.

"Is it the 'yellow' of 'yellow', the 'modest' of 'modest'? I know this 'Huangqian County', but now it's called 'Yumen County'. Wang Haitang exclaimed with some excitement, "It's not far from our hometown, and I followed my father to sell vegetables when I was a child!" ”

I sat up straight, "You've been there yet?" ”

"Yes, more than once, it's a small county town, I don't think there's anything weird, my parents can't have anything to do with it, I guess it's a mistake." Wang Haitang patted his knee with some disappointment.
