After bidding farewell to Shopkeeper Qian, Wang Xu and Albert walked around the yellow area for a while, but they just looked around and had no intention of buying anything. When they left the scare box, it was already evening.
"Would you like to have a good meal today?" Wang Xu put his head on his back and looked at the sunset, his face full of decadence.
"Crayfish?" Albert replied.
"If you want to drink gutter oil, just say so."
"What about Pizza Hut?"
"I asked you, why do you always think at the level of food stalls and fast food?"
Elbert smiled sarcastically: "I was a homeless man."
Wang Xu also smiled: "Let's go to Master Mao's house to eat."
"Won't it cause trouble to others?"
"It's okay, we Chinese, you've heard that saying, it's great to have friends from far away." Wang Xu thought for a while, and then said: "There is also a more popular saying... add two people,
It’s just a matter of adding two pairs of chopsticks.”
So they actually went to Master Mao's house. Wang Xu rang the doorbell, but he only dared to press it once, fearing that pressing too much would cause the hostess's displeasure and eventually lead to him being killed.
The door opened quickly, and Master Cat's sleepy face appeared at the door, "What are you doing?"
"Have a meal."
"Oh, come in then."
Elbert was quite shocked by the dialogue between these two people, because one of them was too thick-skinned and the other was too calm...
"I came here for lunch..." Shui Yingyao was sitting on the sofa watching TV and said this in a lukewarm voice.
Wang Xu was still the same, not like a guest at all: "Sister, what are you going to have for dinner tonight?"
"Don't bother me with this kind of problem. You all go to the kitchen and keep your distance from me. I don't want the baby to hear your voices." She didn't even bother to look at them when she said this.
Wang Xu and Albert had no choice but to come to the kitchen in despair and help Master Cat.
"I said... my sister-in-law has been quite moody recently." Wang Xu whispered to Mr. Cat while washing vegetables.
Unexpectedly, the other party replied: "As a mother, what she did is normal and has a certain scientific basis. Just like many pregnant women listen to symphonies for their babies, listen to guys like you more before birth.
The sound may make him violent."
"Scumbag! How can you talk about violent tendencies in the son of a demon king of yours?"
Master Mao rushed over and covered Wang Xu's mouth: "Don't say bad things about my son... in case she hears it." He made a gesture of wiping his neck...
Wang Xu swallowed a sip of saliva. He guessed that this was no joke, so he shut his mouth and nodded.
After being busy for a while, just as dinner was about to begin, the doorbell rang again.
Mr. Cat sighed deeply: "Sure enough...are you here today too..."
Just when Wang Xu and Albert were wondering who the visitor was, Mr. Cat had already gone over and opened the door: "You two... you just come here for a meal once in a while... you do this every day... I think this is a canteen...
…”
Shui Yungu stood at the door with a cup of milk tea. He smiled innocently: "Brother-in-law, your craftsmanship is good..."
Liu Qingruo was beside him, but her eyes were looking at the sky: "He invited me here, but I have never bribed him with milk tea or anything like that."
"Hey... I obviously said it myself..." Mr. Cat made a long face and sighed: "Forget it, come in."
"Hey, isn't this Chief Liu? Long time no see." Wang Xu greeted the two of them when he saw them: "When did you hook up with that heartless brother-in-law?"
"Hook your head!" "Who is so heartless!" They punched Wang Xu with almost the same posture and force, hitting his left and right eye sockets respectively.
When it was time to eat, Wang Xu got a pair of panda eyes. As he took the rice into his mouth, he muttered in a low voice: "The synchronization and coordination rate is very high...bastard..."
"Fortunately, I wasn't beaten into a human shape, so it shouldn't affect tonight's mission." Master Mao said beside him.
"Ah? What mission?" Wang Xu was confused.
Elbert said: "It's the commission I received a few days ago."
"Said there was a ghost touching his fat man while he was taking a shower?" Wang Xu asked.
With a snap, Shui Yingyao put the chopsticks on the table: "Don't talk when you are eating."
The whole table immediately fell into a deathly silence...
After dinner, Mr. Cat took his wife for a walk like a eunuch carrying Lao Buddha. Shui Yungu actually took out a game console from nowhere, skillfully changed the plug, connected it to the TV, and then he and Liu
Qingruo started playing together.
"This...what...how do you look like a primary school student secretly playing games while his parents are not at home..." This is Wang Xu's true feeling.
"What are you talking about? Don't make trouble if you're not having fun!" "That's right!" The two of them looked like they shared the same hatred for some reason.
Wang Xu silently walked beside them, raised his head forty-five degrees and looked at the ceiling, his eyes were extremely bleak. He said in a cold, arrogant and calm tone: "Huh... This kind of game is played by none other than Takahashi Takahashi (in the world).
In the era when there were no continuous fire joysticks, he became famous for his miraculous skill of 16 keystrokes per second, and was the idol of primary school students in the Famicom era)... I don't bother to compete with anyone..."
"Why is this guy bursting out with such a strong sense of oppression at this time... Is this the soul of an otaku... Is it such a scary thing..." Shui Yungu looked at Wang Xu with eyes like looking at a monster.
After Wang Xu finished shaking off his domineering attitude, he suddenly returned to his original state of good-for-nothing. He went to the refrigerator to grab some drinks, ran to the sofa in the living room and sat down, and said to Elbert beside him: "Where were we talking about just now?
Already?"
"Well...that's not the point...actually, what I'm more interested in is why you specifically brought strawberry milk..."
Wang Xu seemed to have not heard what Elbert said: "Oh! By the way, the client, is he the fat guy I mentioned?"
"No such person exists..."
"Eh? That's weird. I clearly remember such a thing. Could it be that I was dreaming?"
"I'm really not interested in how that sort of thing got into your head..."
"Forget it, tell me, what is going on tonight?"
Elbert cleared his throat: "Well... Actually, I seem to have mentioned it to you yesterday. About three days ago, when I was alone in the office, an aunt came over, also named Wang. Wang
The aunt said that she passed by a convenience store the night before and went in to buy something. The clerk was a young man and the store manager was an older uncle. The strange thing was that it was not very late at the time, but
There was no one in the store, and the air conditioner seemed to be turned on too much, making people's hair stand on end...
Aunt Wang felt something was wrong, so she bought a few things and left. The clerk was very polite to her and there was nothing wrong with her. But when she got home, she found that the things she bought were all stones and ashes.
The next morning, Aunt Wang went to see the convenience store again, but found that there was nothing there. There was no such building at all. After asking people across the street, she found out that something happened here about a few months ago.
After the fire, the original store was burned down, and after the wreckage was disposed of, it became an empty lot."
Wang Xu finished the cup of strawberry milk: "I only have one question..."
"What?"
"How did Aunt Wang know about our supernatural detective agency?"
"It seems that Master Cat used to help her second uncle's cousin's neighbor's uncle's house to get rid of ghosts. As you know, aunts like to spread these things. After many twists and turns, someone told her about our place. Wang
I don’t know if the aunt is enthusiastic or too idle... Anyway, she told me about this situation, well... I should say that she chatted with me all afternoon that day... How to say it in Chinese, oh, it’s called nagging!"
"Okay...I understand..." Wang Xu felt a little sympathetic to him, "Where is the address?"
"In the north, on the Baoshan area."
Wang Xu drank all the milk in the carton and stood up: "Let's go, let's go to work."
