"Son, from now on my father's shop will be handed over to you!"
Li Xiao looked up at the somewhat shabby door in front of him and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Unexpectedly, my father, who has always been in good health, would leave right away.
This is the impermanence of life, large intestine bun...
No, this is the impermanence of life, and many things are simply unpredictable.
【Tiansuan Pavilion】
Li Xiao looked at the dilapidated and peeling paint sign, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Those who ask their fathers to tell their fortunes always say that their fathers are divine fortune-tellers and they always tell their fortunes.
I wonder if he has calculated that he left so early?
However, he couldn't help but feel funny when he thought that his father wanted him to inherit his mantle.
He is a famous college student who graduated from 211 University.
Growing up under the five-star red flag, I learned socialist materialist values.
I watched all the episodes of Approaching Science without missing a single episode.
As a programmer working in a goose factory, my monthly salary is tens of thousands.
How is it possible to believe such fortune-telling nonsense?
He did not come today to inherit his father's mantle.
Instead, I made an appointment with a real estate agent to prepare to sell the store.
However, the moment he pushed away [Tiansuan Pavilion].
【Ding!】
[It is detected that the host enters his own store]
[Tianji Divine Calculation System is activated]
[Task: Tell a person’s fortune and change his fortune within one day]
[Task reward: Increase life span by ten days.]
[Since changing one’s fate against heaven goes against the will of the world, you will pay a certain price every time you change one’s fate for others. 】
Li Xiao was stunned when he heard the prompt in his ears!
Good guy, is this good news or misfortune?
I was doing well, but suddenly I woke up to some kind of fortune-telling system?
Although there are rewards for completing tasks, who knows what price it will cost to help others change their lives?
etc!
Li Xiao's heart skipped a beat.
No way, no way.
Could it be that the reason why I died young is because I paid too much for changing my life against fate!
I have to say that this possibility is not small!
After all, it is completely unreasonable for such a healthy person to leave at will!
Thinking of this, he almost cursed.
This is simply a disaster coming from the sky. He will never follow the same path as his father!
He still wants to live well!
Just when he was having random thoughts.
A somewhat urgent voice came from behind:
"Excuse me, is this the secret fortune teller of the Li family in the east of the city?"
Li Xiao was startled by the sudden sound.
He turned and looked at the person who spoke.
A middle-aged woman in her 40s had a panicked expression on her face, looking a little haggard.
He said with some disgust:
"Yes, this is indeed my father's shop."
"But I'm sorry, he passed away not long ago, so I'm afraid I can't help you."
"This, this...how can it be so good!"
"I finally found out that your father is the most accurate fortune teller here."
"Now that he is gone, what should I do?"
Li Xiao was a little baffled by his words.
But suddenly.
A picture flashed before his eyes.
[2022.3.9, the search for the secrets and calculations has been fruitless, so we will continue to post missing persons notices]
[On March 10, 2022, I went to the Chenghuang Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, and asked passers-by about the situation along the road where my daughter went missing. 】
【2022.3.11, exhausted, fainted and hospitalized.】
······
[On March 18, 2022, a thief broke into a house and found a dead girl trapped in a secret room. Chengdong police led family members to identify the scene. 】
[On March 19, 2022, go to the Chengdong Public Security Bureau to sign.]
Li Xiao was shocked.
In just a short moment, my back was soaked with cold sweat.
He swallowed hard and glanced at the haggard-looking woman in front of him.
It turns out that the other party's daughter has disappeared, and nine days later, the other party's daughter's body will be discovered by a thief.
But based on the fragmentary fragments that just appeared in my mind.
Nine days later, the girl's body was found by thieves.
But the girl's body was obviously not in a state of decay at that time.
Obviously, the death did not last long.
In other words, if the girl is found within 8 days, she should be able to be rescued.
Just when Li Xiao was about to blurt out what he saw, he shut his mouth again.
etc!
Changing one's destiny against heaven is against the will of the world.
Every time you change someone else's life, you have to pay a certain price!
Do I really have to pay the price for this woman I have never met?
However, looking at the woman's haggard look and somewhat desperate eyes.
Li Xiaode's somewhat cold heart seemed to have been pinched hard.
That's all, that's all.
Just this once, only this once!
Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!
When he saved the girl, he not only saved one person, but his entire family!
That is equivalent to saving the lives of several people, and is equivalent to building dozens of levels of pagodas!
Forget it, just try to accumulate some virtue for your dead father and make him live more comfortably down there.
Seeing that Tianji Shen was not here, the woman bent slightly and bowed to Li Xiao:
"sorry for disturbance."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Li Xiao sighed and said helplessly:
"Come in first, come in first and then talk!"
"Maybe I have a chance to help you!"
Hearing Li Xiao's words, the woman who had turned around suddenly turned her head.
There was a hint of hope on the originally despairing face.
Seeing the hope in the other person's eyes, Li Xiao sighed again.
He opened the door and walked into this, somewhat familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar [Tiansuan Pavilion].
The woman followed closely and walked in with Li Xiao.
The store hadn't been used for a while, and there was a musty smell in the air.
Li Xiao ignored the musty smell.
He sat on the rosewood Taishi chair that originally belonged to his father.
He raised his hand and motioned for the woman to sit down.
He looked at the box of sandalwood on the table.
He looked a little dazed.
He followed his father's example and lit the box of sandalwood.
Soon the rotten smell in the store was gone, replaced by a gentle scent of sandalwood.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Looking at the woman’s nervous expression, Li Xiao smiled and comforted:
"Nervous, I probably know why you are here."
"You came here to ask about your daughter's disappearance, right?"
The woman who was originally a little nervous became extremely excited.
"Yes, yes! Master, I'm here to find my daughter. Can you figure out where she is now?"
"this····"
What’s the next step?
Can't you tell the other person directly?
Even if the person is really found, I am afraid that he will be caught and taken to the laboratory for sectioning!
By the way, how did your father tell fortunes in the past?
Wouldn't it be better if you just learn how to do it yourself?
He glanced at the paper and pen on the table.
He gently pushed the paper and pen in front of the other party.
"Write down all the names of your daughter's date of birth and eight characters."
"Although I'm not as powerful as my father, I can barely help you do the calculations, so that shouldn't be a problem!"
When Officer Ye heard that Li Xiao had directly admitted that he was a liar, he was immediately furious.
He had seen arrogant criminals before, but this was the first time he had seen one as arrogant as Li Xiao.
He was about to say threatening words, but the next second, he was stunned.
"If possible, I would like to meet you."
"Why don't we go to Monica's Coffee Shop at the entrance of East Lake Garden!"
"I have the clues you need!"
Officer Ye across from him frowned slightly when he heard Li Xiao's sincere tone.
Years of experience in handling cases made her very convinced that the person on the other end of the phone sounded very sincere and did not sound like he was talking.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the other party is a very experienced liar, and even he, a veteran policeman, has deceived him.
Soon an idea appeared in his mind.
Does the other party really have any clues to determine a certain range?
After all, he has also heard some interesting things in the circle of magicians.
That is some magic tricks, in order to make their deception more credible.
There will be a very professional investigation process.
All customers need to make a reservation in advance.
The magic gang will send out special personnel to collect relevant information about the deceived persons.
In this way, with detailed information, the magician will be more targeted when he implements the deception.
The person who is deceived will feel that what the magic stick said is very accurate, and they will believe in his words.
Officer Ye couldn't help but wonder if the guys on the other end of the phone were just that kind of team of liars.
During their investigation, they found some clues that they didn't find on their side?
This possibility also exists.
Although scammers are certainly hateful, they are nothing compared to those human traffickers.
This kind of swindler can be considered a good citizen among good people.
She hesitated for a second and then made her decision immediately.
"No problem, I'll leave now and I'll arrive in about 15 minutes!"
"No problem, we will arrive on time."
After speaking, Li Xiao hung up the phone and said to the woman:
"Let's go over there first."
Li Xiao's store is not far from East Lake Garden.
Within 10 minutes, the two of them walked into Monica's Cafe near the entrance of East Lake Garden.
Since today is not the weekend, it is not off-duty time either.
So the store was empty, with only two waiters laughing and joking behind the bar.
However, the two people have a relatively decent working attitude. When a customer comes in, a warm smile immediately appears on their face:
"Welcome! Monica!"
Li Xiao came to the bar:
“A glass of iced Americano!”
"And you?"
He turned to look at the woman.
The woman hesitated for a second before speaking:
"Just the same."
"Two glasses of iced Americano, thank you."
Li Xiao stretched out two fingers.
Because he was brought up quickly, Li Xiao just took a sip and was pushed away from Monica's door.
A woman in her early 30s hurried in. He tried it around and his eyes fell on Li Xiao.
After all, there are only two people in this large cafe.
The woman was wearing a fitted light gray T-shirt and a pair of jeans.
Looking at this outfit, Li Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
Who says beautiful women always have big breasts and no brains, at least not the one in front of me!
He knew that the place where he made an appointment was likely to be near the suspect.
Therefore, Officer Ye specially changed into ordinary clothes.
Officer Ye also ordered a cup of coffee and casually sat next to the woman.
She looked up at Li Xiao, who was only in his early 20s, and said coldly:
"Tell me, what clues are there?"
Li Xiao could obviously hear the other party's tone, which was a bit cold.
However, he didn't care much about it and lowered his voice:
"Based on the birth date and horoscope provided by Ms. Li, I can roughly deduce..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Officer Ye in front of him.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. Although I'm not wearing a police uniform, I'm still a people's policeman. Your tricks won't work here at all!"
Li Xiao knew that the other party regarded him as a magic stick.
He wanted to explain directly that he was not a magician, but the future he saw using the system.
But he felt that once he said those words.
When the suspect is actually caught, what awaits him is not some red pennant.
But a large rose gold bracelet and a white ice lab.
I fantasized about having my head opened.
Scene of body organs being sliced and studied.
Li Xiao shivered.
Forget it, forget it, the magic stick will be the magic stick!
"If I didn't count..."
As soon as Li Xiao spoke, he felt cold eyes falling on him, and he quickly changed his words:
"If I guessed correctly, Ms. Li's daughter is now in the East Lake Garden."
Officer Ye frowned slightly as he looked at Li Xiao's serious expression.
"you sure?"
Hearing this question, Li Xiao felt a little hesitant.
Only then did he suddenly realize that what he was seeing was the situation nine days later.
Nine days later, the girl's body was indeed here.
However, it is really hard to say whether we are here today or not!
Officer Ye has extremely strong observation skills, and she saw at this moment that Li Xiao was hesitant.
She also thought that Li Xiao was worried about her illegal investigation, which led to her being sent in.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! So she whispered:
"As long as the information you provide this time is useful, it can help us solve this disappearance case."
"Our Public Security Bureau will not investigate. How did you find out?"
Only when you heard this did you realize that the other party had misunderstood.
He has never done anything illegal, he is just worried that the girl is not here now.
