Chapter 48
If I'm not mistaken, it should be the scene where the round-faced driver had an accident.
so……
Things related to the death of the cage owner will appear in a certain store bit by bit? Once it appears, does it mean that the shop owner should disappear?
Wen Shi didn't stay any longer and walked back to ask Zhou Xu: "When you entered the cage, how many shops here were open?"
Zhou Xu: "No."
After hearing this, Shixin said that it was indeed a useless snack with no hope.
Perhaps because his sarcastic expression was too obvious, Zhou Xu spoke again: "Anyway, there must be more than now."
When hearing it: "..."
"Don't look at me like that." Zhou Xu took a step back warily and pushed Xia Qiao forward unceremoniously, "Why should I count the stores? I was running for my life in a hurry, who could care? Ah! I just remember that this old lady had a rice noodle shop next door, but it’s gone now.”
"You're running for your life and you still care about visiting the rice noodle shop?" Xia Qiao asked seriously.
"Do you need to look at it?! Just smell it, the smell is so strong and fragrant." Zhou Xu said, still a little aggrieved, "I was angry with my mother that day and ran out without dinner. That rice noodle shop makes soup. It’s very thick, and it must have beef balls or beef tendon balls in it. I like that one very much, and you can tell it as soon as you smell it.”
He pretended that he was hungry, swallowed, then pointed further away and said: "There should be a store open at the corner. I was blinded by the light when I ran over."
Wen Shi: "Didn't you tell me earlier?"
Zhou Xu: "How could I know? You didn't even ask!"
Wenshi ignored him and felt that his guess just now was accurate. This mall originally had a lot of shops open, but then they closed one by one.
As they were talking, there was suddenly the sound of chewing next to them.
Everyone turned around and saw the old lady carrying a plastic lunch box, sitting on a pony by the door, eating quietly.
"What did she eat?" Zhou Xu asked.
"Meat." Xie Wen said, his eyes were very good, he was standing farther away than others, but he could see it more clearly than anyone else... Mainly because he had no psychological burden, he really dared to look at it, and he dared to describe it.
"Pork ribs, and meatballs. Maybe beef balls or beef tendon balls." Xie Wen spoke slowly, as if he was making mukbang for the old lady.
He was hungry when he heard it and wanted to beat him very much.
He suddenly made a soft "ah" sound and said, "I got a ring."
When hearing it: "..."
Xia Qiao softened on the spot.
Zhou Xu: “Ugh—I don’t want to eat meat anymore in my fucking life.”
Chapter 21 Legend
Zhou Xu was about to collapse when a voice that was even more collapsed than him came from the side: "Ugh——"
He turned around and saw the old lady eating ribs holding a trash can and vomiting more exaggeratedly than anyone else.
Zhou Xu: "?"
The old lady's plastic lunch box fell to the floor and the food was spilled everywhere.
The rice mixed with broth has clear grains, soaked in a little sauce, and exudes a rich aroma. The smell makes people move their index fingers and makes them feel a little nauseous.
The minced pork ribs had shiny muscles and crispy bones, and the meatballs bounced a few times and rolled gurglingly.
Rolling along with the meatballs, there is also a simple gold ring.
Xia Qiao's lips were pale, and he even jumped.
He was most afraid of this sound - the rolling sound of marbles or metal objects falling on the floor, as clear as rolling in the cochlea.
He would often wake up in the middle of the night and hear the sound, just above his head, as if there was a sleepless child squatting and playing upstairs. But there is only a guest room upstairs in his house, and the room is empty. There is no way there is anyone there.
The ring rolled around and returned to the old lady's feet.
As if on purpose, he fell down against her black cloth shoes, making a soft "clang" sound.
The old lady shivered while holding the trash can, without even raising her head.
Others wanted to step back three feet, as far away from that thing as possible, but when they heard it, they crouched down and took a closer look.
Seeing how calm he was, Zhou Xu was a little dissatisfied and stretched his head over.
The ring was a plain ring without any decoration, but half of it was covered in blood, and a rusty fishy smell was faintly emitted, which was a bit strong.
The half of the ring that was not stained with blood was very bright, and under the light, it vaguely reflected the figure.
There were supposed to be only Wen Shi and Zhou Xu, but behind their blurry shadows there was a face with shoulder-length hair.
The man's face stretched forward, his facial features slowly enlarging. From the blurry white face with long hair, to the two eyes that look like holes, blood is still dripping from the holes.
Zhou Xu was so frightened that he screamed and sat down on the ground.
He turned back sharply——
But he saw Zhang Biling leaning behind him.
"Fuck, who the hell are you?!" Zhou Xu asked in horror.
Zhang Biling: "..."
"I'm your mother." Zhang Biling is usually very gentle and polite, but she seems to be unable to be gentle with her bear son, "You're itchy, right?"
Zhou Xu was so frightened by what happened just now that he didn't recover for a long time, seeing how weird his biological mother looked. He took a few steps back in panic and crawled around to find someone to hold him in his arms.
After shaking for a long time, I realized that he was holding Xia Qiao.
Xia Qiao shook with him and said, "Why do you seem to be less courageous than me?"
"Bah! Fuck you." Zhou Xu spat, then cursed and let go.
