'The red star is shining, shining, the red star is shining...

"Oh, sorry, it's my phone ringing." Ever since I got that damn note, I've changed the bell, hoping that the power of communism will drive away all demons and monsters.

The caller ID is a string of numbers, which means that I have not saved the number, but this number makes me feel a little familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere.

"Hello, hello?"

"Who are you? Why do you want to inquire about Xue Tao and Xue Yu? A very dark-sounding voice came over the phone.

"Xue Tao? Xue Yu? I muttered, the two names sounding familiar.

Zhou Xiongbing, who was next to me, suddenly turned me around forcefully, and reminded me with his lips: "Twins, attic." ”

It's them! I stood up and said, "Yes, that's me, who are you?" ”

"I'll ask you first, why are you inquiring about them?" The other party is very guarded.

I still remember what Xiongbing said to me in the taxi last week, you can tell others about the note, and if it doesn't matter, I will tell the other party about the note.

After listening to the note, the other party was silent for a long time, and I even wondered if he was no longer at the phone.

"Do you know the address of the scholar's bookstore?"

"This, can you tell me one?"

"I'll send you a message on your phone later, it's better to come over early." After saying that, the other party hung up the phone.

Putting down the phone, the three people all looked at me curiously, and I didn't hide it, and recounted the call between me and the other party.

Master He slapped his thigh, "Then what are you waiting for?" Let's go! ”

I saw that the director didn't get up and asked, "Isn't the director going with you?" "Before I knew it, I had come to think of the principal as one of my own, probably because after she heard about me, she said, 'Child, this freaks you out.'

That phrase warmed my heart like a cup of hot tea in winter, reminded me of my outdated grandmother, and the director of the kindergarten was kind and eager to be approached.

The principal smiled, "I can't do it, I'm going to stay here and guard this kindergarten, and I'll tell you if I find anything here." ”

"Well, I'll tell you what I find there."

We have just reached a consensus that the curse between our two schools is very similar, and as long as one is solved, the other will be solved, so both sides will be informed of each other's progress as soon as possible.

And Master He has also decided to take over the case of the two of us at the same time, and the price is very fair, if I don't die next Monday, just give her 2,000 yuan.

She said, "I don't think my contribution to these two things will be greater than that of your master and apprentice, and the five thousand yuan should be regarded as the material fee, for those materials that you will not have access to at all." ”

Zhou Xiongbing and I naturally have no objections, this is a lot more than the chanting expenses of the Posa Temple.

The three of us came to the exit of the kindergarten, and Zhou Xiongbing and I were originally going to take a taxi, but Master He directly took out a car key from his hand and pressed it not far away.

A slightly dilapidated red Mazda made the sound of the door opening, and Master He and I strode towards the Mazda, and Zhou Xiongbing and I silently followed.

"Don't talk about the note in the future." The car didn't drive long, and Master He said.

Zhou Xiongbing and I were both sitting in the back seat of the car, and I poked my head forward, "Why?" Isn't that a good trick? Otherwise, how could the person at the Xueren Bookstore agree with us so easily? ”

"If you just treat the note as a supernatural event, then there is no problem with what you do, but now this matter is more likely to be man-made, and if you do it again, it will invite danger, understand?"

"Danger? What do you mean? ”

"For example, the people who cursed your two schools, or the people who want to use these two curses, anyway, it's better not to add more people who know about this matter."

"Oh, I see what you mean, anyway, we shouldn't use the note thing to win anyone's trust anymore."

The Xueren Bookstore is located in one of the more prosperous streets of the old town, in the alley behind the largest supermarket in the district.

Compared with some very small and fresh bookstores with store decorations, Xueren Bookstore still maintains the relatively original appearance of the bookstore.

Three big red letters, the scholar's bookstore appears in the center of the white plaque, which is the only indication that this is the decoration of the bookstore.

There is no mechanical welcome sound when you open the glass door and enter, but the smell of ink on your face is very reassuring.

The store is about 150 square meters, surrounded by bookshelves, and there are many books in the center, and some books are stacked randomly in some corners.

At this time, there were no other customers in the bookstore except us, and a middle-aged woman wearing a blue polo shirt with her hair coiled was sitting at the counter, looked at us, and asked expressionlessly, "Do you have any books you need?" ”

"That, hello, we are, that someone called us..."

"Go inside, there's a door inside, and inside is the staircase that leads to the second floor." Before I could speak, the middle-aged woman pointed to the wall behind her with the pencil in her hand, and then lowered her head to sort out the booklet similar to accounts on the table.

What a weirdo in a bookstore, the three of us walked around the messy books, and sure enough, we found a brown wooden door in a corner.

When I had already put my hand on the doorknob, I suddenly didn't dare to open the door, turned around and whispered to Zhou Xiongbing, Master He, "You say, will there be danger inside?" ”

Such an inexplicable bookstore, and the people in it are so strange, it's hard not to make people think about it, in my mind has already projected such a picture, in my mind has just opened the door, there is a fierce beast of another world, with a bloody mouth to swallow us, and then, the middle-aged woman at the cash register appeared, and said respectfully to the beast: "Have you eaten enough?" Master"···

Or, what the master said, after I told the matter of the note, it attracted human danger, this person who called me is likely to curse us, he deliberately set up a trap for us to come, and then kill people, I don't know that as soon as I open the door, the three of us will be cursed by the most terrible curse in the world...

Just when I couldn't extricate myself from my thoughts, the door automatically opened from the inside...
