Aoba Office

I answered the phone and hesitated for a few seconds, but didn't speak first.

Lu Qiaolan said "Hello" first, "Is this Mr. Lin?"

"It's me." I took a deep breath.

"I'm Lu Qiaolan, we went to Huixiang together before, that teddy bear..." Lu Qiaolan said very tactfully.

"Yes, I remember. You called, is there something wrong with the teddy bear?" I asked nervously.

"Well, I don't know... The bears were somewhat damaged before, so I sent them back to the original factory for repair. Now the repair shop there has sent the bears back. They have all been repaired, but..." Lu Qiaolan His voice was full of confusion and a hint of uneasiness, "But, I feel that they are different."

"You mean..." All kinds of bad thoughts ran through my mind.

"They are not moving. I feel like they are not moving anymore," Lu Qiaolan said.

I was startled, "They're not moving? Isn't it? They're... gone?"

What I said was a bit vague, but Lu Qiaolan must have understood.

She asked nervously: "Mr. Lin, what do you mean? They, they... disappeared? Why? How is this possible? I obviously... it was not because of the incident in Huixiang, so for the time being... they..."

Lu Qiaolan was a little incoherent.

I could hear her anxiety.

When she received the stuffed bears in the mail, she probably thought that these bears were just temporarily dormant, or that they had returned to her after a long absence and were somewhat quiet. But if all those bears disappear, for Lu Qiaolan, the bear toys in front of her will become empty shells, and it will be no different from the teddy bears that lost all before.

I don’t know what happened to those bears. I am still in a vague state of understanding about these supernatural events and have never studied them systematically.

Among Qingye's people, Ye Qing and Wu Ling may have learned a lot, but the other three probably grew up from one incident after another. They learned a lot of knowledge while living with Ye Qing and Wu Ling, and they didn't have any experience. Learn systematically.

I thought of Gu Mo and Nangong Yao, and said, "Let's make an appointment to meet. You bring me a bear, and I will help you find someone to ask."

Lu Qiaolan breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, that's great. They... I don't want anything to happen to them..."

"I understand." After appeasing Lu Qiaolan and agreeing on a time to meet, I hung up the phone.

Lu Qiaolan is very anxious about this matter and is going to find me in the Sixth Village of Workers and Peasants.

It was almost time to get off work, so I agreed.

I called Gumo again.

Gu Mo was a little surprised, "Those bears are gone? Aren't they hiding?"

"Hide it?" I asked doubtfully.

"They can't just run around and help Lu Qiaolan with housework and take care of the children, right? The characteristic of stuffed toys is to stay quiet." Gu Mo said in a matter-of-fact tone.

I thought back to Lu Qiaolan's words, "Maybe, no... you guys have nothing to do, I just brought a bear here, that's okay, right?"

"If you want to come, come." Gu Mo said nonchalantly.

I don’t know why, but I feel that Gu Mo’s attitude has changed since he came back from the film and television city.

After having passed the test of life and death together, and being hospitalized in the same ward together day and night, Gu Mo's attitude changed?

I secretly wondered.

Being so emotional and willful seems to be Gu Mo's character.

Although Lu Qiaolan was worried, she restrained herself from going to the hotel with me.

"...Can I wait for you here? I saw there is a fast food restaurant outside. If not, there are other places, as long as it's convenient for you." Lu Qiaolan requested.

Seeing her worried and forbearing look, I immediately felt sympathy.

Lu Qiaolan treats these bears no differently than a mother. She had long regarded them as family.

I nodded and asked her to stay here.

I took a taxi to the hotel where Gu Mo and Nangong Yao were staying. I registered at the front desk, and the front desk called Gu Mo to confirm before letting me go.

The management here is stricter than in the past. I don’t know if the room rates have gone up.

The elevator goes directly to the floor where Gu Mo lives, and I can't choose to go down on other floors.

It was very quiet inside the hotel. When I knocked on the door, I felt an echo echoing in the corridor.

It was Nangong Yao who opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, I heard the sound of games inside and felt that this place was popular.

Nangong Yao smiled at me and said hello, then his eyes fell on the bear I was holding.

Along the way, the bear I am holding has attracted the curious eyes of many people.

However, only the aunts and mothers from the Sixth Village of Workers and Peasants would ask questions, and the others would just take a second look.

"How is it?" I asked nervously.

Nangong Yao stepped aside and said, "Come in and talk."

My heart suddenly tightened and I quickly entered the room.

Gu Mo was sitting in the living room of the suite. He must have heard me coming in, but he didn't even squint his eyes.

However, he was obviously distracted by two things and said directly: "Silence!"

I was stunned, and then looked at Nangong Yao behind me.

"No more." Nangong Yao said with a serious expression, "There is nothing, but it is not very clean, and there are still some... traces of exorcism."

With a system prompt, Gu Mo paused the game and turned his head to look over.

I was a little confused, "What?"

"There are traces of exorcism on it." Nangong Yao said.

"How is this possible?" I blurted out, "Isn't the spirit incapable of being purged?"

"Hey, you still understand this?" Gu Mo didn't know whether it was sarcasm or genuine surprise.

I ignored him and said to myself: "Don't they disappear only when the idea disappears or the carrier disappears? Lu Qiaolan's idea must not disappear..."

Nangong Yao shook his head, "This is not the carrier of those bears."

I was stunned.

"The exorcism marks on it seem to be to prevent new spirits from forming. I'm not sure. I don't know much about this. But it's definitely not the original bears." Nangong Yao said.

"Are you sure it's a carrier problem?" Gu Mo suddenly asked.

"Well, that's for sure." Nangong Yao said with certainty, and what he said after that was just a guess, "It's possible that someone like an exorcist over there discovered the problem with the bears and locked them up or It was sealed and a new bear with the same appearance was sent over. You said on the phone before that Lu Qiaolan sent the bear for repair, right? The same material, the only difference is the soul. Without the soul, it is difficult for ordinary people to tell the difference. Come out. Even if there are some changes, it can be regarded as different manufacturing processes during the repair process."

My heart dropped, "That Lu Qiaolan and those bears..."

"I don't know what the other party is thinking. Maybe he can find it, can communicate, and will return the bear to Lu Qiaolan; or maybe the other party is a staunch demon slayer. I heard from Xuan Qing, this kind of division in the country was also very obvious in the past, but in recent years, The world is in chaos, there are more and more people like us, and there are fewer people who are determined to eliminate all ghosts, monsters and spirits. The situation abroad should be similar," Nangong Yao analyzed.

"Has Lu Qiaolan received any messages recently?" Gu Mo asked.

Which story did I promise to end completely? It’s not Lu Qiaolan’s, right? (￣▽￣“)
