Chapter 17: Bats

The room was small and silent, and Su Mo remained motionless and let the darkness churn and breathe on his body, as if his whole person had turned into a dormant bat.

Suddenly, he looked up through the curtain to see the sky outside.

Overcast clouds covered the sky, making it difficult to tell whether it was dark or raining.

Putting on a black tracksuit, he rummaged through the closet and found an umbrella.

This is a black umbrella that is painted black from the handle to the bone.

Frowning, his mood began to deteriorate with an umbrella.

Well, he hates the rain. Although because of the rainy day, the sky will not only get dark quickly, but it will also cause some convenience to his actions, but this does not mean that Su Mo will like that kind of thing.

Long ago, when he was killed, the blood that splattered out of his coat was like the filthy rain that had fallen.

Afterwards, the Master always punished him for washing his clothes.

So whenever the clothes turned red, he was always forced to wash and wash, but after a long time, the clothes no longer faded and became a red dress.

At that time, he thought, why don't you just wear black?

So even if he was no longer splashed with blood, he was still used to wearing black.

Walked out the door and happened to meet the evening rush hour.

Without hesitation, he called a taxi.

After reporting the expected position, Su Mo began to close his eyes and rest.

Today is special, he didn't sleep during the day, so his mental condition is not as good as before......

By the time he felt the car slowly stop, the night had completely fallen.

This time, the destination was different, and when he opened the car door, the busy voices of people and colorful neon lights poured out together, giving him the illusion of a trance - as if he had returned to before he was ten years old.

However, when the flow of light and shadow intersected with him, and the laughter and laughter were the responses of strangers, he realized that everything was false.

Those warmth and warmth do live in the memory, but they seem to be cut off from him, and have nothing to do with him.

This is exactly the case, even if the memory is still there, he has long wanted to relive that time.

Following the circle, he fixed his gaze on the mall building.

The doubts that had existed before intensified.

Even if it was because of the help of those people, the chaotic aura of that person should not be so clear in his perception.

After a moment of contemplation, he entered the glass revolving door.

Time has passed, the structure of this mall has changed, the original department store items have become a dazzling array of cosmetics counters, the faint fragrance that smells good in other people's sense of smell can only cause discomfort to him.

He has always been a dislike of chemicals.

Bypassing the counters, he turned to look at the schematic diagram of the mall.

Silently remembering the words, he chose to climb the escalator because he could not yet tell the actual height of the breath.

Before the escalator could reach the top, Su Mo felt the gaze that suddenly fell on him, and at the same time, there was a cry of surprise behind him.

"Su Mo?"

Turning sideways, he saw the owner of the voice, a short and fat boy, who seemed to look familiar

"It's really you." There was a little surprise and surprise on the boy's face.

After a long time, Su Mo still couldn't remember who he was.

"Why haven't you heard from you for so long, I haven't seen you since you dropped out of school."

From his words, Su Mo immediately understood the identity of the boy - his former elementary school classmate.

The missing memories gradually surfaced, but he didn't have the joy of reunion, because he really didn't know why the boy in front of him was happy.

Obviously he hadn't seen him for so long, but he still pretended that everything was still the same as before, this kind of cognition made Su Mo feel that the boy's enthusiasm was a little ridiculous.

Then after a few sentences, the boy seemed to be facing the air, and he didn't get much response from Su Mo, and gradually he also noticed the oppressive atmosphere, and finally had to awkwardly say goodbye.

The boy's arrival and departure did not affect him, and Su Mo quickly came to the fifth floor.

At this time, he could already be sure that it was around here, and as soon as his eyes flickered, he directly found the target.

It was a delicate doll shop, called 'Doll's House'.

The wooden display cases are illuminated by warm yellow lighting, and the dolls are neatly arranged in them, giving a sense of orderly staggering, and the silver wind chimes arranged on the wall during the period are pleasing to the eye.

However, in Su Mo's eyes, this place is not pleasing to the eye.

A faint, almost invisible egg-yolk diaphragm envelops the entire doll shop, making the so-called warm interior a lot more empty, as if the store is in an either/or state.

At this point, he recalled all the storefronts on the five floors in the diagram, and found that none of them coincided with the name of the doll shop.

Doll's House...... Thinking of the man's hobbies, he couldn't help but sneer.

Sure enough, after observing for a while, Su Mo noticed that ordinary people subconsciously ignored this store when they passed by.

Then Su Mo couldn't help but squint his eyes, trying to understand the meaning of the man who brought him here.

Invite him into the enchantment and then trap him?

If you want to do it, you have to raze the mall to the ground, but this is not possible.

'Law enforcers' explicitly prohibit 'outlaws' from causing a sensation in densely populated areas, let alone them.

So he wondered, what did the man really want to do?

This curiosity lasted only a short time before it disappeared, for the next moment, he stepped into the shop.

Inside the diaphragm is exactly what you see from the outside.

The only difference is that there is one more person.

He was a young man with blonde hair and blue eyes, with short, slightly curled hair, well-rounded features, his face concealed by the light, and his impressive azure eyes.

However, it was precisely because of the unreality of the above that Su Mo immediately guessed the identity of the other party - he was a puppet.

The young man saluted him respectfully, and then said, "Distinguished guest, do you need to visit this place first?" ”

Hearing this, Su Mo glanced around.

Except for the animal dolls that occupy a quarter of the storefront, the rest of the parts are all small dolls, which are quite similar in style to the stand-in dolls that Su Mo saw before.

It seems that the man has not learned his lesson, and no matter how carefully the decorations are observed, they can't hide the truth.

It's just that if you do too many of these meaningless things, that person will become as mediocre and incompetent as they are now.

Thinking of this, he immediately shook his head: "Say, what is your purpose?" ”
