"Hey, what's the fuss."

A man in a long-sleeved sweatshirt and a hood hugs Shabhe from behind.

Hearing a familiar voice coming from behind him, and seeing Xiao Yu's hippie smiling face again, Xia Buhe's tense mood relaxed.

Xia Buhe crumpled the paper ball in his hand and quietly threw it into the trash can at his feet: "This street will not allow stalls in the future, and I am about to add the contact information of a boss......"

Saying that, Xia Buhe raised his mobile phone and scanned the QR code on the fried rice stall: "Aren't you busy swiping copies?" How did it come out? ”

Xiao Yu put down his hood, shook his hair, and showed a bright smile, as bright as the rising moon: "My baby wife said that she was afraid today, I came to pick her up......"

Xia Buhe was suspicious and frowned: "Then why are you wearing so much on a trip?" Besides, you're not from home, are you? ”

"Hehe, isn't the shopping mall opposite about to open, they are going to have a show when they open, I don't want to go and see if I can take a job by the way......"

Xiao Yu scratched his head, raised his right hand in front of Xia Buhe, snapped his fingers, and there was an extra rose in his right hand.

"So, in order to hide some props, I still have to wear long sleeves on a hot day, but it turns out that it is too late and I haven't found the person in charge, and it's not easy for me......"

Xia Buhe took the rose, looked at Xiao Yu's funny expression of pride and grievance, couldn't help but sneer, and then became serious again: "You still bring roses?" You still want to tease a little girl, right? ”

"How dare I, this rose is yours, and this fried rice is mine." Xiao Yu picked up a piece of fried rice as he spoke, ran straight away a few steps, stood a few steps away from Xia Buhe and began to eat.

"That one is not spicy, this one is more spicy, and it definitely tastes good!" The uncle handed another bowl of freshly filled fried rice to Xia Buhe.

Shabhe took it, wanting to cry without tears.

"You're done eating?"

"When I'm done, the bowl is licked clean."

“……”

"Why don't you eat it?"

“……”

"Hurry up while it's hot, do you want me to feed you?"

“……”

In the setting sun, two young shadows swayed near and far, fading into the chirping of insects and the evening breeze.

……

On the top floor of the shopping mall, which has not yet been fully renovated, there are more than a dozen sturdy men lying crookedly.

Although these more than a dozen strong men are all dressed in suits and shirts, their thick necks and thick knuckles betray their status as professional thugs, not to mention the terrifying wrestling ears.

They were so deeply asleep, or rather, unconscious. But there were no wounds on his body, and there was not a trace of poisoning.

As the twilight thinned out and in the darkness, a figure approached, and he picked up a playing card from the ground.

"King of hearts, interesting ......"

A hoarse voice echoed through the empty floors, and the figure leaned against the glass curtain wall by the residual light outside the window, playfully playing and reversing the poker.

……

The house rented by Xia Buhe and Xiao Yu was a simple one-bedroom apartment, with no kitchen and one bathroom.

If you usually want to cook, you can set up an induction cooker on the table by the window, and if you are too lazy to cook, you can climb the window and smell it, and you can taste seven or eight dishes.

In addition to some insignificant shortcomings such as the upstairs children always like to jump in the middle of the night, the sewers are always blocked, the windows leak on rainy days, the intermittent water outages, the continuous network disconnection, and the sudden power outage, this small family is quite comfortable to live in.

The main thing is that the rent is cheap.

"Why do you want to build such a big shopping mall in our place, where there are no attractions or high-density residential areas?" Xiao Yu stared at the computer screen, the mouse and keyboard crackling.

Xia Buhe squatted in front of the coffee table, and was so spicy by the fried rice that he exhaled: "Consumption upgrade...... Call...... Pregnant...... Grand shopping mall...... Housing prices in the surrounding area will also rise...... Whew......"

Xiao Yu snorted: "Consumption upgrade...... Eight pieces of fried rice outside a bowl, you have to sell twenty-eight when you enter the mall, and it has indeed been upgraded, and it has been upgraded by brushing this one copy to upgrade to three levels......"

Xia Buhe took a mouthful of water in his mouth, and muttered for a while before swallowing: "I haven't seen you so yin and yang before......"

"What's the matter, I'm just saying this game, the limited-time dungeon is really worth a dozen. Besides, I didn't know you liked spicy food before......"

Xia Buhe glanced in Xiao Yu's direction, and asked tentatively, "Are you famous in the magic circle?" ”

"Quite famous."

"Then why didn't anyone invite you to the show?"

Xiao Yu was silent for a moment: "My magic is not the same as the ones performed on TV, some magic depends on techniques, some magic relies on props, and I ......"

Xiao Yu's words came to an abrupt end, stopped the operation in the game, turned around and leaned back in the chair, and looked at Xia Buhe, who had a red mouth, seriously.

"The Magician's Code - Keep the Secret of Magic."

With that, he gave Shabhe a funny grimace and continued to turn around and play the game.

Xia Buhe walked to the back of Xiao Yu's computer chair: "Then I'll tell you a magic effect, you can help me analyze it." ”

"You say."

"A figure suddenly appeared in front of the vehicle, and the driver braked to find that the figure had disappeared, and then found that the person was already in the car. Can this effect be magical? ”

"It's simple~~" Xiao Yu deliberately dragged out the tail note, "If the performance object is the driver, this magician will hide in the car in advance, and use a projection similar to the HUD head-up display on the car to project the recorded image onto the windshield, and wait for the driver to suddenly appear after braking, startling him." ”

Xia Buhe nodded as if he didn't understand, and continued to ask: "Then if it's a bus or something, and there are more spectators present, it's inconvenient to hide it in advance?" ”

"That's simple, if the performer can't hide it, he will reduce his presence, and there are many people on the bus, so it's good to avoid attracting attention." Xiao Yu talked a lot about magic, "If it is at sunrise or sunset, at this time, the sunlight can shine directly into the car, and the highlight part of the hard light will be similar to the overexposure of the photo in the eyes of people, and it can also have the effect of blurring the outline......"

Hearing Xiao Yu's explanation, Xia Buhe nodded secretly, sure enough, these strange events can be reasonably explained, but why did I go to great lengths to be careful about Xiao Yu? Could it be that which of Xiao Yu's little fan girls wants to provoke our feelings? Or is it a fellowship with whom he has an enmity?

Shabhe continued to think about it and went into the bathroom to wash up.

Xiao Yu, who was outside the house, watched Xia Buhe enter the bathroom with his spare eyes, and waited until the sound of the shower was released before he breathed a sigh of relief.

He continued to type on the keyboard with his left hand, pretending to be playing a game, and with a pinch of his right fingertips, a crumpled ball of paper appeared in his hand.

Xiao Yu glanced towards the bathroom, and after making sure that there was nothing abnormal, he opened the paper ball with one hand.

After Xiao Yu read it, the note ignited a fire in his hand, and the fire dissipated in the blink of an eye, and the paper ball turned into a playing card.

The playing cards spread out in the palm of his hand were held by Xiao Yu, and then disappeared again.

After doing this, Xiao Yu glanced in the direction of the bathroom again, put on his headphones, and continued to play the game as if nothing had happened.

What Xiao Yu didn't know was that a series of actions he had just made were filmed by Xia Buhe's mobile phone left on the coffee table.
