C92 (2/2)
Jiang Liu'er saw the weird expression on the little girl's face and immediately stood up. She wanted to tease the little girl, so she giggled and used her arms to support herself. She leaned against the cashier and pointed at her eyes.
”Do you believe that I have the ability to see through things?”
Seeing the serious expression on Jiang Liu'er's face, the girl subconsciously cried out and placed her hand on her chest, ”Are you sick? Hurry up and leave, otherwise I'll call the police.”
Jiang Liu'er let out a snort and waved her index finger in front of her, ”I didn't want to tell you this secret at first, but now I've told you, if you can't help me keep this secret, do you think I'll be treated like a monster?”
The girl was shocked by Jiang Liu'er's words and didn't know what to do. Although this was a modern technology society, there were still a lot of things that humans couldn't solve, so she was still a bit suspicious of what Jiang Liu'er said.
”I... ”You …”
The girl was stuttering with a frightened expression on her face.
He looked at the girl in all seriousness, making a pose as if to think, ”Since you're so cute, you shouldn't be a bad person. Then forget it, since you know my secret, you have to listen to me and tell me where the antiques in this shop are. That thing is very important to me, I hope you can help me.”
The little girl was also very mysterious, so she naturally didn't think that there was anything wrong with Jiang Liu'er. She obediently got up and led Jiang Liu'er to open a door beside her.
”I think the thing you want is inside. You can go in and look for it yourself, I'll wait for you outside. Oh right, the item inside is not cheap, you better pick something that you can afford to pay for.”
The little girl then gave Jiang Liu'er a few more words before turning on the light in her room and leaving.
Jiang Liu'er looked around. The room was at most ten square meters, but the antiques were all placed on a high and low counter. It has to be said that any antiques found here would be worth many times more than the books on the outside.
He really didn't know what this little girl was thinking. She wasn't going to do any profitable business, and she was going to keep those books, but he couldn't say for sure. Perhaps the books on the outside were worth a little more than the books that Jiang Rong had given him.
The black airflow that was drifting about in the room was intertwining with each other, and it was slightly blocking his line of sight. He was feeling a little anxious as the airflow swirled around him, and he had to quickly absorb a portion of it to clear his line of sight.
Suddenly, Jiang Liu'er saw some traces of yellow in the dim light at the bottom of the cabinet. He quickly took out his phone, adjusted the flashlight and squatted down, wanting to get to the bottom of this.
The flashlight's light shone on the small box. The yellow light emitted by the box seemed to have some sort of magic to it. After sensing the light, it suddenly became restless. Jiang Liu'er was a little puzzled, so she quietly picked up the box and placed it on the table where the light was on, ready to open it.
”Hey, you'd better hurry up. I'll be off work in a while. We need to lock the door.”
The girl suddenly broke into the house, causing Jiang Liu'er to jump in fright. He nodded his head, ”Got it, got it, I'll pay you back immediately after I'm done.”
The girl glanced at the box in Jiang Liu'er's hands, but didn't discover anything out of the ordinary. She then closed the door and walked out.
Jiang Liu'er looked at the marks around the box carefully. The size of the box was about the same as a normal lunchbox, he guessed that there was a woman's accessory inside.
When he opened it, he found an exquisite rouge box lying inside the velvet box, emitting a strong yellow air current around it.
Jiang Liu'er initially wanted to absorb the air currents before leaving, but she couldn't do anything as she kept pressing for him at the door. He could only absorb the air currents around him in a hurry before closing the box and walking out.
”I was wondering why a man like you would buy such a thing. Bring it over.”
Jiang Liu'er handed the box to the girl. The girl opened it and took a look, then raised her head warily. ”You're a man, buying a rouge box. You said you're looking for something like this. Are you alright?”
Jiang Liu'er also felt a little awkward. He only wanted to absorb this yellow air, but specifically whether it was a rouge box or something like that, he didn't care at all.
The girl saw that Jiang Liu'er did not say anything, so she did not ask any further. After saying the price, she swiped her card towards Jiang Liu'er and watched him leave, ”Hey, did you drive over here?”
