Chapter 205

A man in his early twenties was walking briskly down the street, and although there were not many people on the street, he still habitually kept his head down, and his eyes scanned from side to side from time to time in addition to looking at the road.

After turning into a small road and walking straight for fifty meters, then two more turns and a curved ramp, he finally came to his destination this time - Xiangpiaopiao Grocery Store.

There was no one on Huiding Road, and all the shops on both sides were closed, and the man didn't know if there were any people living inside and above these shops, but it had nothing to do with him.

He first stood at the corner of the intersection and looked in the direction of the grocery store from a distance, and after about five minutes, he felt that there was nothing unusual in the vicinity, and then he picked up his steps again and walked towards the grocery store.

According to the prior investigation, the owner of the grocery store is a lonely old man, not a local, who only came to Green Town more than ten years ago to open this grocery store, and has lived there until now.

The bad old man in his fifties is still alone, he doesn't like to walk around, he doesn't have much communication with his neighbors, and he has lived alone for more than ten years.

Due to the halfway of the government's plan, Huiding Road, which was once quite prosperous, has become a dilapidated situation, and the bad old man has remained even though the residents and business owners have almost disappeared.

He came quietly, and no one knew his past, and no one knew why he was still nailed here.

The man's task was to find a book, and since he was a task through an intermediary, apart from the name and appearance of the book, he only knew that the book seemed to flow to the bad old man in the end.

But since it's a grocery store, it's not surprising that a book or two is recycled from outside.

The man came to the door of the grocery store, he looked inside, then pulled the door with his hand, found it locked, and walked towards the backyard of the grocery store.

The bad old man used to go out for two or three days every two months, maybe to buy goods on Taobao, or to visit relatives and friends.

Today happened to be the day when the other party went out and left, and these were inquired by the man from a person who used to live in Huiding Road, so he chose to come over this evening.

The iron gate in the backyard is not locked, and there are still many footprints on the ground of the yard.

Most of the footprints were left four or five days ago, and they were a little blurry by this time, but two of them were particularly fresh, and for the man who had broken through the empty door all year round, he could tell them with just one look.

Two fresh footprints only entered and did not come out, apparently the owner of the footprints was in the grocery store.

So, having only been a few steps into the backyard, he immediately turned around and wanted to leave the backyard, so he decided to postpone his plan a little longer and come back when the grocery store was empty.

But the man has no chance.

As soon as he turned around, there was a slight sound of footsteps behind him, and then his neck hurt and his eyes went black, and he fainted.

"Who's coming?" Seeing Gong Bing walking into the room with a thin young man in her hand, Lola opened her mouth and asked.

"Suspicious guy, a sneaky thief."

"Are you sure? Make no mistake about it, if he's a relative or friend of the grocery store owner and just comes to visit, then it's a big misunderstanding. ”

"Who brings so many tools with their relatives and friends?" Gong Bing searched the man's body with one hand and the other, and small tools were found and thrown on the ground.

"Can't a thief have friends and relatives?" Lola pouted.

"That's right, you're human, thieves are human, and they're all born of TM." Gong Bing pursed his lips.

After hollowing out the man's whole body, Gong Bing casually threw the other party to the ground, and the latter immediately woke up from the coma.

"You... You guys? The man opened his eyes and sat up from the ground with his hands on the back of his neck.

"It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is who you are? And what do you know? Staring at the man, Gong Bing smiled.

Looking at Gong Bing's ill-intentioned smile, the man swallowed unconsciously.

"It seems that Feldman's ancient books are quite popular, and there are so many people looking for them, and there are at least two groups of people besides the Black Sun Gang." Gong Bing said after closing the back door of the grocery store.

"Two more shifts?" Lola stood in the backyard, holding the last carton of milk in her hands.

"That's right." Gong Bing nodded: "That thief just now counts a class, and then you look at the ground in the backyard." ”

Lola bowed her head.

"Before we came in the afternoon, there were already many messy footprints on the yard, these footprints seemed blurry and extended to the grocery store, which was left within a week, that is, these people were all after the boss's death, and they did not call the police after discovering the boss's death, obviously they all had ulterior secrets."

"Maybe they're looking for a secret we don't know?"

"Do you mean the wood carving, or the two manuscripts?"

The two left the backyard one after the other and returned to the street.

It was already dark outside, and the street lights were all lit up.

"I don't see anything important, but who knows? There are always things that are considered scrap and are priceless in the eyes of others. ”

"Are you saying we don't have vision?"

Lola shrugged.

"By the way, how did things go last night?" Glancing at the grocery store that was getting farther and farther away, Gong Bing suddenly asked.

"Why don't I know, whatever, it's the same as the grocery store owner just now, it has nothing to do with me anyway." Lola, who was walking in front, shook her arms.

Although there are many people who died in this incident, the first is that there are no cameras, the second is that the dead are all gang members, and the third is the remaining guys who can be witnesses, all of whom are hooligans and ruffians who have been frightened, and they have a relationship with the police that is a mouse and a cat, and now they are even more reluctant to get involved.

Coupled with Gong Bing's understanding of the police in this world, the other party will not trace him.

If it were the Celestial Empire of the Earth, in that legal society where violations of the law must be prosecuted, Gong Bing would definitely not dare to be so bold.

As for the owner of the grocery store, Gong Bing hung up the phone with Sheriff Card before leaving, telling him about the dead man here, and the latter complained again, complaining about Gong Bing's ability to cause trouble.

After walking through a few quiet paths, with black lights on both sides, the two finally returned to the main road, looking at the pedestrians back and forth, as if people who had lived in the mountains and old forests for a long time had returned to the world.

"Oops, before I know it, the day has passed." Lola raised her hands and stretched: "Then we..."

"Well, then let's separate here, I'm going back too." Gong Bing nodded.

"Do you want to leave like this?"

"Or else?"

"I accompanied you for a day, and you just sent me away?"

"Be careful with your wording, you speak too much ambiguity." Gong Bing pursed his lips and glared at the passer-by with an inexplicable look.

"What ambiguity?" Lola tilted her head, still with the same sticky voice.

……

"Nothing." The words of explanation will become darker and darker, so it is better not to say it at all, so Gong Bing closed his mouth and walked along the street.

"Don't rush home, we haven't eaten yet." Lola hurried to catch up.

"Your stove isn't on tonight?"

"Isn't my house just the printing house, and I'm about to vomit when I eat in the cafeteria every day."

"If you vomit, you just haven't vomited yet."

"Why are you so stingy, why don't you just invite me to a meal, and ask me to take the initiative to speak."

"I didn't say anything."

"I was with you for a day, how can you turn a blind eye?"

"Please, you speak seriously, and don't forget that you insisted on coming with you." Gong Bing stopped and looked at her.

"Don't forget that I found the box!!" Not to be outdone, Lola looked back.

……

"Okay." looked at her petite Lori, and forgot the actual age of the other party, and couldn't help but tease her for a while.

"Hmph, count you as acquaintances."

"I'm not giving you face."

"Huh?"

"I'm giving you face."

"Humph!"

The two of them walked while bickering, and finally disappeared at the end of the street.
