Chapter 24: Shops

"If you simply want to ask about my identity, then I advise you not to waste your energy, my identity has nothing to do with you." Xiao Ai said.

"You deceived the police in terms of time, don't tell me Lao Chen knows these things about you." Xu Tian said.

"Old Chen doesn't know that we have opened a store here, but so what?" Xiao Ai said.

"How's that? Then I will answer you, because I have investigated one of the owners of this funeral parlor, Xiao Ai, whose time of death is November 5, 2009, how do you explain this? Xu Tian asked with a sinking face.

"Is there any evidence? I stand before you alive, but you say that I am dead, are you not afraid that I will sue you for slander? Xiao Ai said.

"I really don't have any definite evidence, but I can be sure that all three paranormal posts wrote about it." Xu Tian said.

"You will also believe the matter of the three supernatural posts, don't forget what kind of store we open." Xiao Ai said.

"I already guessed that you would tell me that, because you own a funeral parlor, so it is understandable for paranormal lovers to write your deeds as legends of gods and ghosts, right?" Xu Tian said.

"Since you know so well, you don't need me to waste any more words, right?" Xiao Ai said.

"I really haven't verified this matter, but I don't think the legends are necessarily all fake, since ancient times, most legends have been sublimated from real events, although the real events in the legends are very small, but there must be some of them true." Xu Tian said.

"Then I'm going to argue with you, do you think your existence is real? Do you think your characterization is original? Xiao Ai asked.

"I'm not a legendary figure, so it doesn't correspond to the question I asked you." Xu Tian said.

"Then let me tell you, I have not died, and I am standing in front of you now and I can't explain everything? The question you ask is simply the stupidest of the kind. Xiao Ai said.

"Of course I don't believe in gods and ghosts, but there is a shopkeeper named Xiao Ai who died, I don't think this matter is a coincidence, maybe you have taken the identity of Xiao Ai, or maybe you have other things to hide from others, in short, there are too many mysteries in you." Xu Tian said.

"Don't waste your tongue here, I'll take you to the store to see." Xiao Ai said, and walked to a nearby intersection.

Xiao Ai took Xu Tian around the alley for more than a dozen times, and finally came to a relatively wide road.

The road is located on the edge of the urban village, flanked by two wide roads in the city.

"Behind this street is the meeting point where we are going, and I remember this place, this shop appeared in the story of that warm autumn that Li Zhitong told me, and at the end of the street is the house of the little girl who had an accident in the story." Xu Tian said.

"Our shop is right in front, but it's been abandoned for a long time, and we only took our deposits with us when we left here." Xiao Ai said.

Xu Tian approached the store and saw that the door locks were already rusty, and they were the kind of old-fashioned door locks that could be easily opened.

"Just kick the door open." The bird said.

"Is it okay?" Xu Tian hesitated for a moment and said.

"Wait a minute, don't break the front door, let's go around the back door and go in!" Xiao Ai said.

Under Xiao Ai's leadership, Xu Tian walked a long way to get around to the back door of the store, where the back door was also the kind of old-fashioned door lock, and Xu Tian opened the door without much effort.

When I first entered, it smelled of dust, and it looked like no one had been here for a long time.

When he entered the back door, Xu Tian saw a red door leading to the basement, and the entire door was covered with red paint.

"You don't feel panicked? Why paint the door all over with red paint? Xu Tian asked.

"We're a funeral parlor, do you think we're going to be taboo about that?" Xiao Ai said.

The store was also full of paper money, and there were a small number of paper figures.

There is also a desk in the main hall of the store, on which a computer monitor and mouse and keyboard are placed, but there is no computer case underneath the desk.

"The chassis must have been stolen, after all, we've all been away for so long." Xiao Ai said.

"If there's ever been a thief here, then there's something else missing, right?" Xu Tian said.

"No, ordinary thieves don't dare to touch our things, unless it's a thief from out of town, nothing else here has been moved, the computer host should be a former resident of this place sneaked in and stole the chassis when he left, look at the dust to know that no one has been here for a long time, it should have been stolen four years ago." Xiao Ai said.

"Is it a bedroom?" Xu Tian asked.

"That's right, there are two bedrooms, the front side is the most spacious room, which is also my room, and the other windowless room on the shade side is Yu Yi's room." Xiao Ai said.

Xu Tian opened the doors of the two bedrooms separately and saw that Yu Yi's room was very dim, and he had to turn on the lights during the day.

And Xiao Ai's room is different, not only is it very spacious, but also has a very large double bed, and the most important thing is that there are two sets of quilts on the bed.

"There are three shopkeepers here, and you sleep in the big bedroom with one of them, is that shopkeeper also a girl?" Xu Tian asked.

"She's a lot older than me, and we've lived together all the time." Xiao Ai said.

"And what about her?" Xu Tian asked.

"We haven't been in touch for a long time, and she left us before Yu Yi and I received Lao Chen's invitation, and I didn't put away her quilt after that, and it didn't take long for us to receive a notice that this place was going to be demolished." Xiao Ai said.

"You've dealt with Zhinian Tai Sui before that, right? Don't you admit that? Xu Tian asked.

"That's right, you're right, we did deal with Zhinian Tai Sui before we received Lao Chen's invitation, but we didn't take advantage of that time, and we only discovered the existence of the character Zhinian Tai Sui after in-depth investigation." Xiao Ai said.

"What the hell have you been through? Does Lao Chen know these things about you? Xu Tian asked.

"Of course I don't know, do you think the police will take the initiative to find us? If we hadn't used a stratagem, how could the police have known about a little person like us? Xiao Ai said.

"I knew that you must have taken the initiative to contact the police, so the case in Yanbei Mountain Village was actually a case planned by you and Yu Yi in order to get close to the police, right?" Xu Tian asked.
