Chapter 55
"That's right." Zhou Xu rarely agreed with his mother, "If she was the cage owner and was looking for someone, the person she was looking for would have been sent to her door by Dian Dian. If she wasn't, it would make sense!"
They summarized it and thought they had found a way. Unexpectedly, Xie Wen suddenly spoke and said in a nonchalant manner: "Does it make sense? Why don't I think it makes sense?"
Zhou Xu's head was full of questions: "Didn't you two make a mistake in what you said?! Why doesn't it make sense again?"
"We said there was a cage owner among the shop owners. He should be a man. His hair was messy and his face was a little swollen." Xie Wen said.
Zhang Biling didn't know what she thought of. She looked thoughtful, then nodded and said, "If it's that person, I recognize him. He's a wholesaler of stationery supplies. But I can't find the store. He didn't open the door just now."
Xie Wen looked at her and nodded: "That's almost it."
"Doesn't this make sense? Is there any problem?" Zhang Biling asked in confusion.
"Of course." Xie Wen said, "I said he was the cage owner, but I didn't say that the woman must not be the cage owner."
Zhang Biling frowned: "What do you mean?"
"I can't unlock the cage, so I rarely enter the cage. I don't really understand." He turned to Wen and said, "So I want to ask a stupid question, is it possible for there to be two cage owners in one cage?"
When Wen Shi didn't sit down, he was leaning against the scroll door with his arms folded.
When he heard this, he squinted and touched the side of his neck. He didn't answer directly, but looked at Zhang Biling.
Zhang Biling was stunned.
But Zhou Xu, like a student rushing to answer a question, spoke actively: "I know! I heard my aunt say that it is possible. It's like knocking out two yellow eggs from a chicken egg. Some cages really have more than one cage. host."
"Can it still be like this? Why?" Xia Qiao was confused.
Zhou Xu's vanity was greatly satisfied: "Generally, the relationship between two cage owners will be very close. This situation can easily occur if there are overlapping things or scenes that cannot be let go."
He still felt unsatisfied after briefly describing it, so he took the initiative to make up a lesson: "But my aunt said that this kind of cage is relatively rare, because different cage owners will fight with each other. Once a fight begins, one will definitely have the upper hand, and the other will One of them just disappears naturally."
Xia Qiao thought of the environment they were in now and murmured: "It seems a bit similar... Then, how come the cage owner who had the upper hand didn't disappear?"
"Possessed." Zhou Xu said calmly, "If you can't fight, just hide and attach yourself to something else. Just like you, some model, a mirror, or a stranger... ah..."
After saying the last three words, he suddenly became quiet.
The whole store took on an eerie dead silence. Because all the strangers in this cage are in the store.
If it's like what they said, the male shopkeeper is the cage owner who currently has the upper hand. Then, the woman with eyes like two holes...
Isn't it possible that it's in the store? ? ?
Zhou Xu was at a loss for a moment. He said in a trance as if he was remembering something: "Speaking of which, that woman always came every now and then. Now, how long has it been since she last appeared...?"
"I don't know, but it's been a long time." The plaid shirt was also in a daze, and his voice could not hide the panic.
The people who were crowded together were silent for a few seconds, then dispersed with a huff, no one dared to lean on the others.
In this atmosphere, everyone felt a little weird.
"Yeah, not necessarily." Someone comforted.
Zhou Xu originally comforted himself like this, but he suddenly remembered the dark corridor when he went to the toilet, the shopkeepers who had hidden early, and someone who just said, "The male cage owner didn't even open the door." It was as if they had felt it for a long time. It felt like women were hiding among strangers, so they all hid.
correct!
Who just said, "The male shopkeeper didn't open the door"?
It seems that he also said "I can't find where his store is"?
Normal people like him can only take a quick look at what the store owner looks like, what is sold in the store, and whether it is open or not. In fact, it is difficult to pay attention to everything.
If you notice it, it must be impressive.
But... I'm so impressed, why can't I "find where the store is"? ? ?
He was stunned for a moment and suddenly remembered that it was his mother, Zhang Biling, who had just said these words.
Zhou Xu stiffened instantly and did not dare to move. Cold sweat seeped out along his scalp.
Someone happened to break the dead silence and said: "Don't scare yourself. Didn't that elder sister put a talisman on the door? A city sealing talisman or some other talisman. Anyway, it will definitely prevent those things from getting in. That one The woman must have been locked out and can't get in!"
This seemed to make sense, and several people agreed.
But as soon as they finished speaking, they discovered that Wen Shi, who was leaning in the corner, stood up straight, walked to the talisman at some point, and took off one of the talismans.
"What are you doing?!" Everyone was shocked, "What are you doing? Are you crazy?!"
"Who told you this was the sealing talisman?" Wen Shi asked expressionlessly.
Zhou Xu blinked in a daze and said mechanically: "Me."
Xia Qiao's eyes widened: "Isn't it?"
"It's a bit similar," Wen Shi said, "but it's painted backwards."
