The clock struck midnight, and Wang Xu and Albert, dressed in convenience store uniforms, stood boredly behind the checkout counter, waiting for customers to come.
"Eh? What is this?" Wang Xu suddenly found a mezzanine under the cigarette counter. He pulled it out and saw that they were all pirated DVDs. In addition to popular movies and TV series, there were also many heavy-flavored films sandwiched there.
in.
"This boss is really good at developing side businesses..." As he said this, he actually found the supplier's phone number where the DVDs were placed, and then quietly put the business card into his pocket...
The sound of the automatic door opening came. Elbert looked at the door and saw two men coming in. They were both about thirty years old. They were not tall. They didn't look very distinctive, but their behavior was quite strange.
The eyes they looked at Elbert were very complicated, mixed with fear and doubt, but the two of them tried hard to pretend to be calm and normal. They wandered around the store, looking here and there, looking at this and that.
, in fact, my eyes kept glancing towards the cashier.
"We came in. It was very cold here. I was spitting out white mist when I spoke. It was definitely not caused by the air conditioner. But the two clerks standing there were fine. They were still wearing short-sleeves and looked very calm. It seems that they are like this.
The evil spirit in the store." One of the men said to the pocket intercom hidden in his collar.
At the same time, on the street outside the convenience store, the other three companions of the two men were using long-distance camera equipment to shoot the inside of the convenience store. The person who seemed to be the host before stepped in front of the camera.
: "Friends in the audience, Da Zhou and Xiao Kui are still conducting investigations tonight. You have also heard what they just said. We have determined the target. Please pay attention to further changes."
…………
"Hey...Wang Xu, those two guys have been hanging around for more than ten minutes. I think they look wrong. Could they be thieves?" Elbert finally couldn't help but said.
"Just steal. Let's just pretend we didn't see it. Anyway, it's just stones and cinders."
"Well...that's true...wait! What if they don't want to steal, but want to rob? Maybe they are hesitating to take action now."
"Then just beat them up and throw them out. Why are you panicking..." Wang Xu acted very calmly.
At this moment, another guy came to join in the fun.
A tall man walked in. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Wang Xu and Elbert, and then said: "Why are you here? Where are the boss and Xiao Zhao?"
"I still want to ask you, why are you here?" Wang Xu said.
Guo Jingtian replied: "I am a frequent visitor here. I often come here to eat oden."
"Ah? Is the food in this store edible? Also, aren't you a ghost? I never saw you eat anything when I was in the True God Rubik's Cube."
"It's precisely because I'm a ghost that I can eat oden in this ghost realm. I don't need food eaten by living people."
"Oh I got it."
Elbert looked at Wang Xu: "Your friend?"
Wang Xu did not answer him, but turned back to look at Guo Jingtian: "Do we count?"
The other party glanced at him: "It's not even an acquaintance."
Only then did Wang Xu answer Albert: "He's not my friend, he's just a passerby."
A few veins popped up on Guo Jingtian's forehead immediately, but he didn't want to get entangled with Wang Xu anymore, so he said: "Anyway, you two will do business on behalf of the boss tonight, right? Then give me a five-yuan one."
That kind of oden.”
Wang Xu picked up the paper cup, filled it with oden, scooped out two spoons of soup, and threw a plastic spoon in. Then he pushed the thing in front of Guo Jingtian: "Five yuan."
Unexpectedly, the other party replied with a very shocking sentence: "I never give you money when I come here to buy things."
"What did you say?!" Wang Xu raised his voice, and both Da Zhou and Xiao Kui in the store looked over.
Because the door and the outermost wall of this Xiaoxie convenience store are made of transparent glass, the other three members of the "Supernatural Commando" film crew outside the store also focused their cameras on this place.
"This is normal. We are all ghosts. We naturally understand in our hearts that the things in this store are all illusions. Although it tastes good in the mouth, in fact it is just the oden in the store manager's memory. The items sold will be sold the next day.
It appears automatically and has no meaning at all, so why pay for it?"
"Oh, I understand when you put it this way." Wang Xuxu raised his eyes and looked at Guo Jingtian. His malicious look only lasted for two seconds.
Then, with a bang, Lao Guo's entire face was pressed into the hot oden stove by Wang Xu...
"Hey! What's going on! That guy! Did he attack the customer?! He actually pressed the person's face into the boiling water! Audiences, did you see it? Just now, our camera clearly recorded this
One scene!" The host on the street yelled into the microphone.
Da Zhou and Xiao Kuan in the store were shocked at that time. They stood there at a loss. They also thought that Guo Jingtian was a customer who accidentally entered the ghost store. However, at this moment, these two people did not step forward to save him.
courage.
Of course, as a core member of Soulless, the man did not need them to save him. After about ten seconds, Wang Xu let go of his hand, and Guo Jingtian raised his head by himself. He was unharmed, but his face was covered with soup.
Quite embarrassed.
"Give me money! Silly!" Wang Xu shouted.
"Okay... I have the guts... I have ten yuan here, RMB, no need to change, you are cruel..." Guo Jingtian gave the money and walked out in a daze. He really had nothing to do, so he was not angry.
However, he muttered: "This kid is crazy... Are you risking your life for five dollars..."
"What...what's going on...is that person okay? Why is this happening?" The host looked at Guo Jingtian's retreating back and said instinctively to the camera.
"This...maybe he was holding the table with his hands just now. We didn't see it clearly due to the angle. In fact, his face didn't touch the boiling water, right! That must be the case...the soup on his face was actually just water vapor!
"The man named Da Zhou opened his collar and whispered. I don't know whether he was speaking to his companions outside the door or to himself.
"Hey! You two!" Wang Xu's voice came to mind again.
Dazhou and Xiaocui really wanted to kneel down and shout: "Hero, spare your life!"
"Come here!"
Wang Xu gave the order, but these two people dared not to obey. Their toes were trembling as they walked towards the cashier step by step.
The host said into the microphone: "Dear viewers, it seems that Da Zhou and Xiao Kuan have been found out! In what direction will things develop next?" He put down the microphone and said to the cameraman: "Okay, we will do the rest of the dubbing.
Let’s do the production in post-production. Azan and I will copy the guys, and you can follow with the camera. If Dazhou and the others are in any danger, we will rush in.”
Within a short distance of ten meters, Da Zhou and Xiao Kui could move for a long time. At this moment, they finally arrived in front of Wang Xu.
"You two, you have been acting coquettishly there for a long time. I have seen through your true intentions!" Wang Xu's eyes narrowed, and both of them almost stopped breathing.
Elbert understood what he knew, squatted down, and took out two square plastic baskets from under the table, in which he bought... pirated DVDs.
"Humph... You two, the things are all here... There are a few of them that I personally like. I wonder if there is anything you like..." Wang Xu's tone at this time was very similar to that of squatting in a coat.
People selling fake mobile phones on the street...
The two investigators were stunned on the spot and thought to themselves: Is this ghost going to sell something similar to a midnight ring video tape for us to watch when we go back?
"No...no...no need, we don't want to buy these."
"Oh? I can't tell, this elder brother is very picky. In this case, there is nothing we can do..." Wang Xu's hand went to his waist.
Just when the two people opposite thought he was going to take out some scary props, this guy actually took out a few loose DVDs from his body.
"Look, I kept these separately..."
Elbert's eyes widened: "Hey! It seems like you want to take it home secretly!"
"Stop talking about it!" Wang Xu slapped Elbert away, and then looked at Da Zhou and Xiao Kui with a pimp-like look: "How about... six yuan a piece, high-definition DVD.
!”
At this time, both Da Zhou and Xiao Kuang had a strong feeling that if they did not buy these heavy-flavored films, they might anger the evil spirit in front of them...
"Okay...little boss...I...I...we...we bought all the tickets you have."
"That's right!" Wang Xu patted Da Zhou's shoulder with one hand, and he almost fell to the ground. "We pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other."
…………
Five minutes later, Da Zhou and Xiao Kui walked out of the convenience store.
"How was it? You seemed to have talked to them in the end? What did you say?" the host asked excitedly.
Da Zhou burst into tears: "That ghost forcibly sold me a pirated disc worth dozens of dollars..."
So, five people stood in a circle on the street, passing each other around the heavy-flavored bulk DVDs he bought. In the end... they all twitched the corners of their mouths and were speechless.
Wang Xu in the store was looking extremely proud in front of Elbert: "Look at my ability to observe people's emotions, right? What kind of robbery thief? I'm obviously here to hunt for movies! This kind of thing
I can tell by the look in someone's eyes!"
Elbert silently looked up at the clock in the store: "Einstein, you made a mistake. Approaching the speed of light will make people feel that time slows down. That is wrong. Approaching Wang Xu...people will feel that time slows down.
