Chapter 5 Countdown to the Mission
Wu Yi closed the door with the lunch box and sat down on the bed again, lit a cigarette and smoked while sipping peanuts, which seemed to have the faint aroma of Wang's sister-in-law, which made Wu Yi's thoughts drift out of the clouds.
It may be because of a lot of mental stimulation today, Wu Yi slept very deeply tonight, until the next morning, he woke up, the first thing he did after waking up was to close his eyes and concentrate, the system is still there, everything yesterday was not a dream!
[Branch mission, countdown in progress.] 】
Looking at the decreasing time, he did feel a trace of oppression mentally, Wu Yi didn't want to be played to death by the system at such a young age, got up and washed his face, took the lunch box that was emptied yesterday, and opened the door and walked towards Sister-in-law Wang's store next door.
Wu Yi's shop is mainly dealing in some porcelain and jade, of course, there are others, but the rest are all related. And Wang's sister-in-law's shop is mainly engaged in some ancient calligraphy and paintings, and the walls are all hung with some ancient and modern celebrities. Disturb. The calligraphy and painting of the guest, and the sister-in-law of Wang is also quite elegant, an imitation of the Han Dynasty bronze incense Boshan furnace is placed in the middle of the room, under the fragrance, making this shop have a sense of history.
There was a man standing behind the counter of the shop, this person Wu Yi knew, it was the younger brother of the dead Brother Wang, named Wang Qiu.
Seeing that only Wang Qiu was here, Wu Yi originally planned to turn his head back, this Wang Qiu's personality is more perverse and eccentric, Wu Yi's personality belongs to the kind of flamboyant and bold, and these two have never dealt with each other.
But today is a little different, as soon as Wu Yi turned around, he heard Wang Qiu shouting from behind,
"Hey, little Angkor, come in, come in."
Wu Yi was stunned, little Angkor?
And at this moment when Wu Yi was stunned, Wang Qiu had already run over from behind the counter, pulled Wu Yi's arm and let him in to sit.
Wu Yi felt weird, Wang Qiu ate something wrong today, and he would take the initiative to greet him? But it was difficult to refuse, and I could only follow in.
"Xiao Wang, isn't Sister-in-law Wang here?"
Wu Yi put the lunch box on the shelf behind the counter and asked without words.
Wang Qiu gave Wu Yi a cigarette, lit it politely, and then said,
"There is some information on the store's business license to be changed, my sister-in-law went to get it, and I may have to wait until noon to come back, what's wrong, is there anything wrong with Little Angkor? Just tell me. ”
Wu Yi was a little uncomfortable by Wang Qiu's attitude of turning one hundred and eighty degrees, he was still used to the cold-looking Wang Qiu before, and his question Wang Qiu probably couldn't help much, could it be difficult to ask him directly, do you know if your sister-in-law is a human or a ghost?
The two chatted a few words about recent business matters, Wu Yi was absent-minded, he was not much interested in running an antique shop, and after chatting for a while, Wu Yi got up to say goodbye, but when he walked to the door, Wang Qiu's words made him pause slightly,
"Little Angkor, thank you!"
Wang Qiu came to such a sentence inexplicably.
Wu Yi scratched his head, and returned to his shop, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, what kind of evil did this Wang Qiu fall into, why was he suddenly so kind to himself?
Be kind to yourself? Why be so kind to yourself all of a sudden? Wu Yi frowned and thought, as if there was a mist floating in front of his eyes, he could see it, but when he grabbed it, it dispersed. The answer seems to be the same, it seems to be very simple, but when you think about it, you can't grasp the point. Moreover, Wu Yi seemed to have a feeling that the change in Wang Qiu's attitude seemed to have something to do with his completion of the task......
Wu Yi felt that he was using his brain a little too much, and his brain hurt.
At this moment, a fat woman dressed in gold and silver came into the shop, and the fat woman was holding a solid-colored Scottish Fold cat in her arms, and when she came in, she put the cat on the glass counter and looked down at the jade bracelet inside.
The Scottish Fold cat looks very gentle and cute, worthy of being the Fold Elf clan among cats, even Wu Yi was amused a lot more relaxed by its cute appearance, so he casually praised a few words,
"Your cat is so cute, you see that it is in your hands, and it is not at all as arrogant as other cats, no wonder they call it an 'ambassador of peace'."
The fat woman heard Wu Yi praise her cat, and immediately smiled, she said that this is her daughter, but she is obedient, although in the end she did not have anything in Wu Yi's picture, but until she left, she smiled at Wu Yi, and finally let the cute cat in her arms say goodbye to Wu Yi.
Wu Yi also sighed in his heart about the power of words, the fat woman came in with a stiff face, she just praised her kitten, and she immediately seemed to be a different person......
Well?
Changed a person?
Wu Yi seems to have grasped a key ......
Speaking of which, Wang Qiu's attitude towards his big turn is really a bit like a different person!
But I didn't praise him, and he didn't have a cat?
Wu Yi felt as if there was a clue swaying in front of him, but he couldn't grasp it, Wu Yi calmed down and sorted it out carefully, the last time he saw Wang Qiu was a few weeks ago, and he wanted to say that he had done something related to Wang Qiu during this time...... I'm afraid I only went to his brother's tombstone yesterday......
Is this because of this?
The more Wu Yi thought about it, the more annoyed he became, obviously he wanted to find out the situation of Wang's sister-in-law, but now it's good, the more and more he keeps cutting, and the reason is still messy! In the end, he felt that it was necessary to ask Wang Qiu for clarification.
As night fell, a day had passed, and the countdown to the side quests continued. The shops on the antique street closed one after another, and when Wu saw that Wang Qiu was leaving, he hurriedly closed the shop, followed a few steps and greeted Wang Qiu behind.
Wang Qiu saw that it was Wu Yi, and immediately smiled and said hello, Wu Yi deliberately pretended to be a chance encounter, saying that he was out to eat, and casually asked Wang Qiu if he had dinner, Wang Qiu shook his head truthfully, Wu Yi was secretly happy in his heart, so he naturally invited Wang Qiu to go to the newly opened food stall next to him to eat something.
Wang Qiu seemed to want to shirk it, but he couldn't bear Wu Yi's pull, and finally went with him.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the two of them have been eating for almost an hour, Wu Yike has been sober, but Wang Qiu is a little drunk. As soon as Wu saw that the time was ripe, he casually asked Wang Qiu how the current situation at home was, and whether there were any difficulties in the family after Brother Wang's death.
Wang Qiu heard Wu Yi mention this stubble, but he didn't reply, sighed, raised his head and drank the beer in the cup, after drinking, his face turned red, his eyes seemed to be a little moist, looking at Wang Qiu, his tongue was a little straight and said,
"Little ...... Little Angkor, you ...... You're a ...... That's interesting! Before...... I'm not sensible, so I'll apologize to you here! Before, I didn't know that little Angkor you were so affectionate and righteous, yesterday I went to visit my brother in Yunhai Cemetery, and I ...... I saw you lying on your brother's tombstone and getting drunk, and I realized that it turned out to be ...... It turns out that you think my brother is such an important brother...... Can...... Comparable to that sass. Women, it is much more important to be affectionate and righteous! ”
