Vol 1 Chapter 9 (2/2)
Just as I was thinking of what to buy for senior, Miao Miao’s attention was attracted by so at a certain place nearby
There was a sh it wasn’t noon yet
Nowadays, the city would usually only start to have people bustling around after eleven o’clock So I felt rather strange to see such a thing appearing at the empty and cold sidewalk
It was a booth full of jewelry thatunder the sun
That adventure movie took two and a half hour to finish When the three of us ca onto our unfinished coke and popcorn Miao Miao’s eyes were red because the supporting character she just liked in the movie, was assassinated by the ene
“When the DVD is out, I want to buy it and watch again” Miao Miao said while sniffling, “That hateful villain If I ever saw her on the street, I’ll beat her up”
It should be really difficult to ht?
However, I was a little scared, scared of seeing a horrible news headline such as “A faht” a few days later because I’m absolutely sure Miao Miao had the ability to do such earth-shaking thing
“Dong died so horribly” Miao Miao grabbed onto Geng’s hand, only to repeat the same sentence for the umpteenth time
Incidentally, Dong was the supporting actor from the adventure movie we just watched, and he kicked the bucket in the end
“The stall fro looked at the other side of the street; I followed her line of sight and the stall she mentioned, was the so and take a look”
“Yes, let’s go” Miao Miao i, in the back of her ’s hand, and smiled
Accepting my fate, I could only silently follow them across
It was a jewelry booth, filled with many products that were currently very popular For example: silver, traditional style, leather, and etcetera The s that should been available were all being sold there
The vendor greeted them, “Dear ladies, take your time and have a look”
For so and Miao Miao didn’t reply i — a necklace
A traditional styled necklace, which depicted the moon — the small crescent shaped colored stone was neatly triainst the ground
“GengGeng, this…” as if she was asking, Miao Miao looked at her senior, “Want to get it?”
I didn’t understand why Miao Miao asked in thisit should be fine, right?
Noticing there were two custo his wares, the hawker ireet theood eyes This necklace is soo It is a limited edition, handmade by the natives, there is no one ould have the same ornament Today I’ve not yet startedyou like, just na his s on the box so Miao Miao can have a better look, “Want to try putting it on, there is a mirror over here”
Miao Miao held onto the necklace, and suddenly looked at , do you think this looks nice?” She took the necklace and placed it in front of me, so I could have a better look, but it didn’t see to wear it
I inspected the necklace
Oddly enough, although the work done on the necklace was very refined, for so was a little weird, as though soht
“Want to take a look at the other products?” I looked around for a bit and saw another n of on the table, “I think this one looks better”
Both were the same moon-like jewelry, but this one was a bracelet, iving off a feeling as if though had its own personality
Geng and Miao Miao looked across
“Indeed, this one definitely looks better” Geng suddenly smiled She picked up the bracelet and said, “Miao Miao, don’t buy that necklace”
In fact, this should be considered as a nor However, for sos behind their words What were they secretly conveying to each other?
Miao Miao passed the necklace back to the vendor, “Then we’ll buy the other one” She see have a very good insight”
What? My face was full of confusion
Suddenly, soht my attention, I turned and looked at that direction The innermost box was a leather necklace buried in a very inconspicuous place; the plate hanging at the top Nowadays, there wereMycollar
The surface of the plate was bright silver At the corner, was a cluster of flames — silver flames
This made me involuntarily think of one person When I came to my senses, I had already picked up the necklace
“Brother, you like this one? That necklace has already been here for a long time If you like it I’ll just sell it to you at a loss!” The vendor immediately came next to me and said
My instinct was tellingmade me rather surprised, because I’ht then, I’ll get this one”
“This is a pure silver plate, since you have such fate with it, I’ll sell it to you for a thousand and eight hundred (~60 USD)”
“Ah!?” That’s daht it would be only around a hundred and fifty
Geng took the necklace from my hand and looked at it, “It is indeed pure silver” She looked like she kne to do some appraisal, and then she promptly passed the chain back to me
Since she already said that, I could only dig out my flat wallet and bitterly took out two pieces of a thousand dollar bills (~34 USD) that I saved froave it to the boss
“Then I’ll get this one” Miao Miao didn’t even ask for the price She just held onto the moon-like bracelet and took out a few pieces of thousand dollar bills
The boss was surprised to see the money Miao Miao took out, “That’s the exact a”
Miao Miao only smiled and then she winked at me
“Yang Yang, on what basis did you decide on when choosing that necklace?”
When we left the city, Geng chose a Chinese-styled tea-house for us to sit down and rest
“Huh? What do youstuff would also need a basis? Isn’t it just because it looked nice that’s why I bought it?
Miao Miao and Geng exchanged a look and then both of them smiled
“The things in that shop all had rather strong obsessions” Miao Miao said, while playing with the delicate teacup, “Me and GengGeng were guessing the boss personally went around to et the stock, but for soood”
I didn’t quite understand what they were trying to say Wasn’t it just buying so to the eyes?
“Ugh… won’t going around and buying stuff at different places will present more characteristics?” Nowadays, such sht in quantity fro items at different places more popular?
“It is not wrong to say that” Geng s down the cup in her hands, “But while picking those things, the thoughts, obsession were attached on it, are very is we need to take note of, after all, the place we are in is not the hu, there will be some side-effects”
Not the human world My ears selectively accepted this sentence I knew it, the school was definitely not for humans to study in!
“Miao Miao noticedsold there were handmade, and it’s handmade items that are most likely to cause problems” Completely unaware of the stor inside my head, Miao Miao poke at a piece of sticky rice ( chose was really good, Yang Yang has a really good insight”
Good insight?
“When school starts, you will learn things relevant to this, after all even now, Insight is considered as an important lesson Even your senior also selected this as an elective” Pausing for a while, Geng said, “Yang Yang just needs to keep your instinct intact, I believe your insight will certainly become one of the best”
She had too ood, then, in the first place, I wouldn’t have chosen a spoilt lunchbox, and then was thrown into a school not for huht so
Just as Geng wanted to continue saying so She then setically, took her cell phone, and headed outside
“See’s job is here” Miao Miao told me
Sure enough, after Geng finished talking on the phone, she caent job, I have to go first Yang Yang thanks for acco us for a walk today”
“Ah, you’re welcome” I smiled back Actually, today we only went for movies, and it was quite pleasant too
“Miao Miao has a date tonight, too Thank you Yang Yang” With a polite bow, Miao Miao sain when school start”
I was stunned for a ht, see you when school starts”
Geng, who had left first, already paid for us and hurriedly disappeared
I suddenly felt the reason Geng and Miao Miao came to look for me today wasn’t to improve our student relationshi+p
Could it be they already knew that I originally didn’t want to go?
“Yang Yang must coain together”
Miao Miao then also disappeared at the shop’s door
