"Yes, I am the owner of this bookstore. I wonder what do you need?"
Lin Mo smiled lightly and looked at the woman who was speaking. His eyes swept across the woman's body and landed behind the woman on a man standing outside the door but not walking in.
The man's appearance was ordinary, his eyes were not spiritual, and he was not strong in stature. No matter how you looked at him, he looked like the kind of guy you would throw into a crowd and not be able to tell him apart at a glance.
But this man gave Lin Mo a very unusual feeling. At least compared to the man and woman who entered the bookstore at this time, that man attracted Lin Mo's attention more.
"interesting."
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Lin Mo looked at the man a few more times.
The man looked ordinary, and he didn't even notice anything wrong in his perception. But the man stood there, as if he had blended in with the surroundings, making anyone who saw him subconsciously ignore him.
The presence.
If Lin Mo hadn't been behind the counter at this moment and looked up at the woman from a special angle, just enough to see the man, Lin Mo might not have noticed that there was someone outside the door.
"Is this a coincidence?"
Lin Mo's eyes flashed: "No, he wants me to notice him!"
The light in his eyes flashed away, and Lin Mo suddenly closed his eyes. Such a coincidental scene, such a coincidental angle, if it weren't for the woman's words that made people uncomfortable, Lin Mo would not have raised his head to look at that woman, if that man hadn't
On the other side of the woman, Lin Mo would not turn around to look at him subconsciously.
If this were not the case, the angle of Lin Mo's gaze would not have happened to pass by that angle, and if the man had not been standing there, he would not have noticed it at all.
All this seemed extremely ordinary, just two people entering the bookstore, which caused Lin Mo's natural reaction, but in fact it was not like this.
If Lin Mo was not sitting behind the counter and did not get up, but stood up from the chair at the same time as the two people entered the bookstore, then Lin Mo's line of sight would be blocked by the wall and he would not be able to see the man's existence.
And all he could see was the man and woman walking into the bookstore.
He suddenly became wary, but Lin Mo didn't show any signs of it on his face. Instead, he glanced at the person indifferently, and then his eyes fell on the woman.
Everything sounds complicated, but in fact it was just a change in Lin Mo's mind in just a short moment. When he turned his eyes to the woman, the woman just said:
"What do we need? What can we need in a shabby bookstore like yours?"
The woman's eyes swept across the bookstore, the look of disdain on her face not concealed at all, and her eyes did not stop at any place.
Liu, even Lin Mo, who was talking to her, didn't even take a second look.
But Lin Mo could tell that underneath the woman's arrogant expression, there was a sense of vigilance hidden behind her.
Although she had been behaving arrogantly recently and the expression on her face was very disdainful, that woman did not come to Lin Mo. Not only her, but also the man standing next to her did not approach the counter.
The distance between the two of them and Lin Mo at this time was about two and a half meters, which seemed very casual, but if compared with another person, everything would not seem so casual.
The distance between the man and the woman from Lin Mo was about two and a half meters, and if you don't count the door of the bookstore, the distance between the man and the man standing outside the bookstore was not much or less.
Exactly two and a half meters.
More than two meters, less than three meters, this distance is not very long, but it is a quite safe distance.
This man and woman seemed arrogant, but after entering the bookstore, they did not take another step forward. They just stood between Lin Mo and the man outside the store, as if there was an invisible boundary blocking the two people.
.
These two people seemed to be standing casually, but their bodies were tense, they were taking a step back, and they were ready to escape at any time. How could Lin Mo not see that?
Testing, Lin Mo already understood at this time, this was the testing of him by those outside.
The man outside the door was the one who carried out this temptation, and the man and woman who entered the bookstore were just tools used by that man to test him.
The doubts in his heart disappeared, and Lin Mo still couldn't figure out at first why these guys came to test him. After all, even if these people's information was lagging behind, they couldn't possibly not know about the scene where Nie San once summoned thousands of ghost soldiers.
Not to mention that he hadn't shown any hostility yet, even if he had, just based on the strength Nie San showed when he helped him that day, he shouldn't have sent these two people in to test him.
The method is somewhat inferior, but I have to say that it is pretty good.
First, let two people come in to test, preferably to cause a conflict, to observe Lin Mo's strength. If Lin Mo does not show strong enough, then they will take coercive measures to drive Lin Mo away from here.
If Lin Mo shows a strong side, the man outside the door will become a judge. If he is not strong enough, he will still suppress him directly.
If you are strong enough and come in to apologize when the time comes, you will have a buffer if you want to resolve the conflict.
As for falling into a state of complete hostility because of this, considering there are so many people outside the door, it is estimated that these people are not worried about this. What they are worried about may only be whether it will cause too many casualties.
These steps are linked together, which can not only verify Lin Mo's strength, but also reduce losses as much as possible. After all, in
Lin Mo didn't dare to kill anyone here.
The corner of Lin Mo's mouth curled up. If he didn't see it, then things would probably develop according to the other party's wishes. But now that he has seen it, how could he not make a little change?
"What do you need? For example, some small toys?"
There was a bit of weirdness in his tone, but what was even weirder was Lin Mo's eyes. His eyes scanned the woman's body up and down, and he clicked his tongue twice.
Seeing the sudden change in Lin Mo's eyes, she became extremely disgusting. The woman's brows were furrowed, her eyes were full of disgust, her two fists were clenched tightly together, and the anger could be seen rising in her beautiful eyes. At this time, she
He had the urge to beat Lin Mo violently.
Hearing the word "toy" in Lin Mo's mouth, the woman's pretty face turned even redder. She seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes looking at Lin Mo became more and more unkind.
"you!"
Anger spread slowly like a flame. Lin Mo's eyes flashed slightly, but he saw the woman taking a step in his direction. Looking at the woman's angry look, how could Lin Mo not know what the other person was thinking?
The man standing next to the woman was stunned when he heard Lin Mo's words. He didn't expect that Lin Mo, the bookstore owner, actually sold toys.
Before he could react, he heard the woman's angry voice, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the woman take a step in Lin Mo's direction.
"No!"
The man's expression changed and he immediately reached out to pull the woman. However, under Lin Mo's constant provocative eyes and tut-tutting voice, the woman didn't know why. The anger in her heart was burning, but it engulfed her in an instant.
At this time, she only had one thought, which was to walk over, kick the hateful guy off the chair, and beat him severely. He ignored the shouts of the man next to him and moved his arm to dodge the other person's hand.
He took another step and was in front of the counter in the next second.
The woman's move was extremely impulsive. The eyes of the man who came in with her flickered, and an anxious mood appeared on his face. The man standing outside the bookstore saw the woman walking towards Lin Mo.
His face changed instantly.
He secretly screamed impulsively and subconsciously took a step towards the door of the bookstore, his eyes fixed on the woman's back.
Neither the man nor the woman in the bookstore noticed the flash of golden threads in Lin Mo's eyes. Although the person outside the door had been paying attention to Lin Mo, at this time the woman walked between them and put
His vision is blocked.
Even if he had the ability to see the changes in Lin Mo's eyes, he could only see the background of the woman at this time.
And this, in fact, Lin Mo used the cause and effect technique for the first time after the mirror of the past world awakened again!
