Panguan

Chapter 46

He stopped behind the old lady, and with his thin, white and slender fingers, he grabbed the arm that was holding the door open, and took the old lady's hand off as if holding something.

The old lady was secretly arguing, her face turned green, but she was still arranged properly.

"I saw you from afar. You're such a tall man. Are you tired of holding the door open? Let's hold it open for a while." The scroll door was lifted up by the hand, revealing a thankful face.

Maybe it was because the lighting in the store was too cold, and the light shining on his face made him look even sicker.

When he looked at the smell in the store, he glanced at the long stretched threads and said quietly: "Who taught you to crawl into an empty house alone in a cage?"

Chapter 20 Contradiction

No one teaches.

The words came to Wen Shi's lips, but he did not speak because he felt that Xie Wen was not very happy.

He subconsciously glanced outside the door——

The scroll door was half blocked, and the field of view was limited. Except for the dilapidated and dark door of the store diagonally opposite, there was nothing else. Naturally, it was impossible to know what Xie Wen had encountered before coming here.

When he heard this, he frowned and asked, "Who provoked you?"

Xie Wen was stunned for a moment.

He didn't seem to expect such a reaction when he heard it, and he paused while holding the scroll door.

The incandescent lamp in the store was too pale, making his eyes dark but covered with a thin layer of light. He stood silently in the light for a long time before suddenly coming to his senses.

He tilted his head and sighed, maybe too lightly. The smile didn't even reach his eyes and disappeared in an instant.

"No one." Xie Wen put down his hand holding the door and stood up straight. "The aromatherapy in the store I just went to was too unpleasant. It happens to be the kind I dislike the most."

He stepped aside to get out of the way and said, "Have you finished reading? Come out when you're done. Don't prevent the old man from closing the door."

The white cotton thread tied outside the scroll door fell loosely to the ground. Wen Shi looked at him for a while before taking the thread back.

He wrapped it around his fingers and walked out the door.

The old lady's white eyes stared unblinkingly. As soon as Wenshi stepped out, she grabbed a rusty iron hook with her back foot and hooked down the rolling shutter door.

"Why is it closed?" Xie asked.

The old lady paused. She glanced at something behind her subconsciously, and said in a sleepy voice: "You can't open it, you can't open it. He doesn't sell good things, so you can't open it."

After saying that, she grabbed the iron hook and walked away slowly.

Every time he takes a step, the iron hook will hit the ground and make a "dang" sound. The voice was sharp and crisp, like a chisel in the brain.

Someone not far away shouted softly.

When he heard this, he turned around and saw Zhou Xu and Xia Qiao standing there, one behind the other.

Zhou Xu seemed to be particularly intolerable to the sound of metal digging into the ground, rubbing his skin and jumping around. Xia Qiao was right next to him, staring at him like a thief.

"What are you here for?" Wen Shi asked.

"You are the only one who can walk this way, but I can't?" Zhou Xu was like a goose flapping its wings, pecking back on the spot.

Xia Qiao complained: "Brother, if he insists on following you, I'll just see what he wants to do."

Zhou Xu: "Who is following him? I've been stuck in there for a long time. Come out for some air. Is there a problem?"

Xia Qiao was shocked: "You still need to breathe in a place like this? Then do you get up in the morning and go for a morning run?"

Zhou Xu: "I——"

Zhou Xu: "...fuck."

Maybe it's because Zhou Xu is a little younger, but Xia Qiao's aura in front of him is pretty good, and he can't even suppress him, but he can fight 50-50.

When I heard about it, I saw them pecking each other with their hair tied up, and their eyes looked up into the distance.

Behind them, on one side is the straight corridor crossing across from the opposite side, and on the other side is the curved corridor. The middle circle was completely dark, and no shops were open.

When Wen Shi looked at the dark corridor, he suddenly realized that Xie Wen had turned over from there just now... Where did the shop with the smelly incense come from?

He finally realized that Xie Wen's unhappiness just now might really just be because he was crawling into a semi-enclosed space by himself.

This is a bit surprising, because they haven't actually gotten to know each other that well yet.

***

The old lady walked away with her sharp hook, and Xie Wen followed her not far or near.

Wen Shi looked at his back, frowned, and hurried over in stride.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Xie Wen glanced towards the dark corridor behind, "You're not afraid of the dark, are you?"

roll.

When I heard it, my heart said.

He pursed his lips and said nothing, but slowed down and followed the old lady with Xie Wen.

After walking for a while, he said: "When I entered that store, I had already hooked the cotton thread outside the door."

He was still frowning because he felt it was a bit... bizarre to explain such things to others.

The enclosed space in the cage is very dangerous. It's better to have more people, but if there is only one person, you may be trapped in it for a long time. Of course he knew this. Therefore, he had a backup plan early and did not rush in rashly.

Xie asked and said "oh".

His expression was the same as usual, as if he had put all the previous unhappiness behind him.

He didn't say anything more, and naturally he wouldn't add anything when he heard it. The two walked forward in silence, with a subtle sense of stalemate.

Zhou Xu and Xia Qiao have no brains, but they are sensitive. They felt the inexplicably tense atmosphere and did not dare to follow too closely. They just stayed behind five or six meters away.

Those two people didn't speak, and they didn't dare for some reason.
