The two-storey grocery store is located on a small road, seven or eight meters wide, which is empty, and the shops on both sides are also locked.

"What are you doing here?" Lola sucked on her favorite carton of milk: "Just now, there is not even a ghost in this area. ”

Gong Bing didn't say anything, he leaned in front of the grocery store and wanted to look through the glass on the door of the store, but unfortunately, there was only darkness in front of him, and Gong Bing couldn't see anything.

"Came here early in the morning, you made an appointment? Or visiting friends? Lola stood beside Gong Bing and lifted her toes to look inside.

"Look at this." Retracting his gaze, Gong Bing took out a folded piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to her.

Lola took the paper and opened it.

"The things you want are in the Xiangpiaopiao grocery store, I found it this time, send someone to pick it up, and don't forget, the good reward is the old way."

"Wolves."

Lola read out the contents of the paper intermittently, with great difficulty.

"There is really no one in this font, it is written like an ant crawling, and there is a problem with the sentence breaking, which really dazzles my eyes." Lola said with a disgusted face: "I can only read the word wolf, but it is only neat, and it has nothing to do with good looks." ”

"This is the one you found from that corpse last night?"

"That's right."

"I guess this couldn't have been written by the wolf himself."

"I don't think eight or nine is far from ten."

"I can't think of a gang boss who can't even write clearly." Lola complained.

"This paper should have been written down by the wolf himself and was going to be handed over to the Black Sun Gang, but now it seems that he didn't hand it over in person."

"Why?" Lola threw away the finished milk and pulled another one out of the plastic bag.

"You don't know? The wolf died, he was poisoned in the police station a few days ago, and this note should have been obtained by the Black Sun Gang from the police station or somewhere else. ”

"Huh?" Lola looked at Gong Bing with some surprise: "Are they going to kill people?" It seems that the Black Sun Gang didn't just want to seek revenge on you last night. ”

"Of course not, the wild wolf is not a member of the Black Sun Gang, and it is only a cooperative relationship with them, they can't avenge a gang boss who has little to do with them, and their purpose is an ancient book."

Gong Bing patted the door of the store, but no one responded for a long time, and it was still quiet inside.

"The one that was with the Stranger's profile that night? Is there anything special about that thing? "Regarding the content of the ancient books, Lola had already skimmed through them that night, and in addition to some boring travel stories, it was just a specious spiritual cultivation method.

"That's what I want to know." Gong Bing shook his head.

He had originally planned to learn the secrets of the ancient books from Ranson, but he still underestimated the power of the thermal weapon and overestimated his own strength.

However, he did not regret killing the other party.

After all, no matter how attractive the secret is, it's not as important as your own life, isn't it?

"Maybe it's for that spiritual cultivation method." Gong Bing guessed, as he said as he looked back and forth in front of the grocery store.

Hearing Gong Bing's reason, Lola seemed unimpressed.

"This so-called cultivation method, there are not fifty or thirty kinds of cultivation methods in Tutlan, in the early years, it may still arouse people's interest, people think that it is a way to improve intelligence, so there was a period of cultivation craze for this reason, but I have never heard of anyone who has successfully cultivated, and over time, these cultivation methods that have spread in society have become jokes, and no one cares about them anymore.

Therefore, even if a new cultivation method appears in the future, few people will pay attention to it. ”

This situation sounds like the Qigong craze that arose in the early days on Earth, Gong Bing thought.

"Well, that's how the wolf found the ancient book in this grocery store." Remembering what was on the paper, Lola said.

Gong Bing nodded in response.

The reason why he came here was actually to try his luck and see if he could find the secrets of ancient books.

And through the Zhang Gong Bing written by the wild wolf, I also figured out a little, in addition to the wild wolf, the Black Sun Gang seems to have entrusted others to find this ancient book.

What is the secret that makes the Black Sun Gang, an underworld gang that spans several provinces, pay so much attention?

Rutru deliberately recites the spiral condensation method...

Rodi Canyon...

Remnants of the Agura civilization...

There was a lot of dust on the locked door of the grocery store, and it looked like it hadn't been open for business in a while.

So Gong Bing turned around and went into a nearby alley, bypassing the house on the side of the road and coming to the back of the grocery store.

There was a small courtyard at the back of the grocery store, surrounded by a brick wall more than two meters high, and a tree with a crooked neck extended from the yard, the trunk of which hung down on the courtyard wall, and the bare branches covered most of the yard and the path at the back door.

Gong Bing looked at the back door and found that the iron gate of the courtyard was hidden, so he pushed the door and walked in.

There were a lot of dead leaves on the ground, and the eight-meter-square yard was piled up with a lot of things, including tables and chairs, and various household appliances, and the plastic canvas covering these things was covered with dust.

"You won't even close the door, maybe the shopkeeper was in too much of a hurry when he left, so he forgot to lock the door?" Lola followed behind Gong Bing and also walked into the backyard.

Looking around, Gong Bing frowned slightly.

He didn't stop long, and without saying a word came to the back door of the house, and when he put his hand on the doorknob, his nose moved.

The back door was also unlocked, and with a twist of the doorknob, the two entered the house without incident.

The first floor of the grocery store is used for commercial use, and on the street is a vestibule with many wooden shelves filled with all kinds of things, and behind it is a small room that serves as a warehouse, and a small kitchen and bathroom.

The second floor is a room for daily rest and living, and in addition to the bedroom and study, there is a slightly larger bathroom.

"Gabriel, don't you think there's a strange smell here?"

In the lobby on the first floor, Lola sipping milk while patrolling the shelves.

"Don't forget what this shop is called, of course it smells." Gong Bing replied without raising his head.

He scratched the counter with his fingers, and it was immediately covered with a lot of dust.

After hurriedly looking at the empty first floor, the two continued to walk upstairs.

After looking at the bedroom, Gong Bing then pushed open the wooden door of the study, and then he suddenly stopped and stood motionless.

"Why don't you move?" Lola's head popped up from behind Gong Bing: "Wow, so the smell came out of here?" ”

At this time, in the study, an elderly man fell to the ground, and under his body was a torn wooden chair, and a foul smell was coming from the man.

Gong Bing walked into the study with a stiff face, Lola looked at the milk in her hand, then at the study, sighed, and finally put the milk back in the plastic bag and followed.

"This guy looks like he's been dead for a long time, it's really unappetizing, he's the owner of the grocery store?"

"I guess so." Gong Bing stared at the corpse and replied.

"It's so fragrant that I can't even drink milk."

The bloodstained deceased was still wearing pajamas, which is usually worn like this at home, so the other party should be the owner of the grocery store.

Gong Bing took out a handkerchief from his body and searched the corpse.

Although he is not a professional forensic doctor, according to his previous experience, this guy has been dead for at least a week, considering that it is winter, under low temperatures, the change of the corpse will be slower, so the time of death may have to go back a little.

It was also more than a week before he took out the Wolf Gang, and the deceased had many scars on his body, apparently tortured before he died, and the fatal wound was that his neck was broken.

It seems that the wolf tortured the deceased before getting his hands on the ancient books.
