Incense money from flower and bird shop

Hunger, crazy hunger eroded her will.

The slender woman devoured the meal greedily, her expression almost crazy.She had already finished the staple food and snacks for three people, but she still wanted to order. Her stomach seemed to be a bottomless pit, and she couldn't fill it up. The feeling of hunger scratched her heart and liver.

The waiter was a little worried about her health, and kindly asked, "Ma'am, would you like to take a rest first?"

"I want to eat, I'm hungry!" The woman snatched the menu from the waiter, looking at the various dishes, her eyes almost lit up, "I also want two steaks and a whole red velvet."

The waiter looked at the woman with bulging eyes and hesitated to place an order: "Ma'am, are you really okay?"

When Yu Lili came over with Ming Yan and Xiao Congshuo, Shen Siyi had already had the fourth round of dinner.The steak wasn't even cut into small pieces, it was delivered straight to her mouth.Black pepper juice stuck to the corner of her mouth and dripped on her expensive clothes, but Shen Siyi didn't notice it, and just ate and drank desperately.

"Siyi, what's wrong with you?" Yu Lili tried to hold down the woman who was eating, but she pushed her away forcefully, "Don't hinder me from eating."

Yu Lili looked at Xiao Congshuo for help, Xiao Congshuo tore Ming Yan's clothes, and said in a low voice, "There is something wrong with Shen Siyi."

A well-known model should take good care of her feathers and strictly maintain her figure, instead of eating and drinking like she is now.At first, Ming Yan suspected that it was a hungry ghost, but he didn't notice a ghost in Shen Siyi.

The red velvet cake was brought to the table, Shen Siyi's eyes were full of desire for food.She didn't even need to use a knife to cut it, she directly grabbed the whole cake with her hand soaked in black pepper juice, swallowed it in big mouthfuls, and sucked her cream-filled fingers while swallowing it.

In the eyes of others, this wolf-like eating behavior is not only loss of appetite, but even nauseating.The guests who led the table at several tables called the waiter to pay the bill one after another, unwilling to stay here for another minute.

Yu Lili snatched the plate from her hand with all her strength, and cried anxiously: "Siyi, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm hungry." Shen Siyi looked at the steak and cake, swallowing all the time, trying desperately to grab it, "Lili, I'm really hungry at night."

Xiao Congshuo snatched the plate from Shen Siyi regardless of the oily sauce and creamy jam splashing on him: "If you continue like this, you will have an accident."

When we met for the first time a few days ago, she was still self-respecting and arrogant, she was completely different from today.

"You don't have to worry about it." Shen Siyi grabbed the hot steak with her bare hands, and put it into her mouth viciously, chewing and swallowing, as if possessed by an evil spirit.

Xiao Congshuo's palms were wrapped in gauze, and the steak that had just been served was still splashed with boiling oil.Ming Yan frowned, and told Xiao Congshuo to quickly throw away the dinner plate.

Locking Ming Yan's body tightly with protruding eyeballs, suddenly begged as if seeing a savior: "I don't want to eat, but I'm so hungry."

Ming Yan was afraid that something would happen to her, and was about to stop her when someone exclaimed: "Isn't this Shen Siyi?"

"How could it be Shen Siyi, look at how she looks like a starving ghost reincarnated!"

"Don't tell me, it's really similar."

There are more and more onlookers, with disgusted eyes and harsh words coming from all directions like steel needles.Shen Siyi's movements of biting the steak became stiff, she lowered her head feeling ashamed, took out a few red bills from her bag, said hurriedly "don't look for them", and rushed out of the restaurant covered in oil.

"Wait for me!" Yu Lili chased out worriedly, followed by Xiao Congshuo and Ming Yan.

In the flower bed at the corner of the street, Shen Siyi squatted on the ground in pain, retching.When the three of them found her, they found that the dress that was originally fitted was about to burst, and her belly was as big as a ball.

Shen Siyi knelt by the flower bed in pain, unable to restrain the desire to vomit anymore, she bent down and vomited out all the food she ate just now.

Seeing that she was in a very bad condition, Ming Yan couldn't find out why for the time being, so he just said to Yu Lili: "Send her home, and we will look for clues along the way."

While stroking Shen Siyi's back, Yu Lili nodded, "Okay."

Pushing open the door of Shen Siyi's house, Ming Yan and Xiao Congshuo looked at each other, both of them were shocked.This high-end villa has been piled up with rubbish, reaching the point where there is nowhere to go.Just glance at the packaging bags, they are all imported food written in foreign languages.

Shen Siyi curled up and slept on the sofa, falling into the calmness after madness.Her bloodshot eyes blinked, and tears fell silently.Yu Lili brought hot water to drink Xiaoshi tablets, and told her to take two tablets quickly to prevent her stomach from being full.

Holding the hot water, Shen Siyi suddenly cried out, "Since the day before yesterday, I've been very hungry every night... It's as if a fire is burning in my stomach."

"I used to seldom feel hungry, even if I only ate a few leaves of vegetables for each meal." While speaking, Shen Siyi buried her face in her palm, and the guilt of overeating couldn't be escaped, "I don't know what's wrong with me, I can't control my appetite , the only thing on my mind is eating."

Ming Yan patiently listened to her finish, and extracted the key points like peeling off cocoons: "This situation started the day before yesterday?"

"Yes, I had an audition the day before yesterday, but I missed it again, and I was extremely depressed." Recalling the situation that day, Shen Siyi said truthfully, "I was wandering around the street in pain, and I passed by a dessert shop by accident, and I saw the desserts in the window. Delicate and delicious, I couldn’t resist pushing the door in.”

"I obviously don't like desserts. As a model, quitting sugar is also an essential homework."

"But that day, I wanted to go in out of nowhere, bought a lot of high-calorie cakes, and even on the way home, I was full of desire to eat."

"When I took the first bite, I found that the frustration of my career's trough gradually dissipated. The cream and icing made me go crazy. Since then, it has been out of control, and it seems that only real things can fill the slump of my career."

"So, after that time, you started to overeat?" Ming Yan's first instinct was that there was something wrong with the dessert shop, "Tell me the address of that shop."

Xiao Congshuo asked, "Are you suspicious of the dessert shop?"

Ming Yan nodded: "For now, the most suspect is probably the dessert shop."

It was not possessed by a hungry ghost, nor was it caused by a disease, Ming Yan thought to himself, maybe there is another possibility, but it needs to be verified.

The next day, Xiao Congshuo and Ming Yan went to the dessert shop to check the address given by Shen Siyi.

This exquisite dessert shop is located in an inconspicuous corner of the downtown area. Through the clean window, you can see all kinds of desserts.

In the dessert shop, there was only one young salesperson.The clerk seems to be still in school, and when he smiles on his round face, he can see two white canine teeth.

When Ming Yan saw the young man, he finally verified his conjecture - Taotie, which is rumored to symbolize a greedy and gluttonous beast.

"Do you need any recommendation, opening ceremony, half price discount for special pastries." The young man smiled from beginning to end, showing his pointed canine teeth.For some reason, there was a sense of serenity in this warm smile.

The more Xiao Congshuo looked at his smile, the more pervasive it became, as if a mask was covering his face, just making the expression of "smile".But compared to the smirk of the clerk, the temptation of desserts is more deadly. Xiao Congshuo looked at the dazzling array of desserts, and his appetite was whetted by a ghost.

At this moment, Ming Yan whispered to him: "Be careful."

Sure enough, there is something wrong with this young man, and the desserts in this shop are also unusual. Ming Yan's words confirmed Xiao Congshuo's thoughts.

The boy did not rush them to make a decision, but waited patiently.Ming Yan guessed that when he was outside the door, Taotie also saw through his identity.Under such circumstances, there is no need to play charades.

"I dare not buy it, and I dare not eat it." Ming Yan looked around, not fascinated by all kinds of dim sum, and said bluntly, "You can't eat what you make."

"So, what about the other guest?" The boy still kept his eight-teeth smile, but there was no smile in his eyes, and his expression became colder and colder. "You seem to be feeling hungry."

His words seemed to be the key to open Pandora's box, the hunger was infinitely magnified, and Xiao Congshuo restrained the bursting desire from the bottom of his heart.

"Buying your pastry is not as simple as paying money." Xiao Congshuo recalled Shen Siyi's greedy and crazy appearance when he was gluttonous, and his whole body was filled with chills.

The young man spread his hands with regret, his smile sank and remained unchanged: "What a pity."

Ming Yan asked him: "If I'm not wrong, you are using people's desire to eat to strengthen yourself."

The teenager didn't deny the statement: "So what?"

"After eating the dessert you made, your appetite will be infinitely magnified, and a good person will become like a hungry ghost."

The appearance of Shen Siyi last night was the truest portrayal.

"The more they eat, the more their desires will be magnified, until in the end, the food bursts their spleen and stomach, and they die of overeating."

After Ming Yan finished telling the truth, he saw a cluster of cracks appearing on the boy's smiling mask.

In the boy's dark eyes, the edge of a beast has burst out: "You guessed it, but I like smart people."

"Because smart people have the most tender brains."

When the situation was tense, someone suddenly opened the glass door, looked at the dessert shop, and suddenly smiled happily: "Coincidentally, they are all acquaintances."

Xiao Congshuo turned around and saw a fashionable young man walking in. It was Yuan Hou whom he met in the haunted house.

"There are peers competing for business, and there are peers who compare themselves to each other. It's really lively." The man walked up to Ming Yan, smiling so hard that his eyes almost turned into crescents, "What a coincidence."

Ming Yan asked him: "Are you also entrusted by someone?"

"Isn't it?" Yuan Hou ignored Xiao Congshuo and the Huya boy, and started chatting with Ming Yan, "The son hired by my boss almost died last night."

The Huya boy looked at Yuan Hou, and his appetite became more and more magnified: "It is said that eating a piece of your meat can make your feet feel strong."

"Whether you can eat it or not depends on your ability." When Yuan Hou looked at the young man, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his eyes became sharp.

In an instant, the illusion dissipated, and the dessert shop with bright and clean windows became dusty and filthy.All kinds of exquisite pastries have been covered with mildew, and the cream attached to it is being moved by something, as if something is hidden in it.

Xiao Congshuo's sharp eyes saw the weird pastry at a glance, he picked up a cupcake and threw it on the ground with disgust, crushing it with his feet.There was a sudden sharp cry from the soles of his feet, Xiao Congshuo was startled, he raised his feet to look, and saw a long worm wriggling.

Xiao Congshuo exclaimed, "What is this?"

"Greedy worm." Yuan Hou stomped the worm to pieces, "He hid the worm in the snacks to arouse the greedy appetite of the guests and strengthen himself."

Ming Yan moved his eyes away in disgust, and secretly vomited: "The more greed is released, the more offerings he can get."

"So, Shen Siyi's gluttony is due to eating gluttons by mistake?" Xiao Congshuo suddenly realized, and said with contempt, "It's really despicable."

"But in my opinion, that female model deserves what she deserves." The young man sneered, without any sense of guilt, "She induces vomiting all the year round, wasting food, and I just let her eat back what she vomited out."

"As for your employer—" the young man looked at Yuan Hou again, and continued, "I can't guess who your client's son is, but I'm sure he has a greedy heart."

Yuan Hou sneered at his fallacious reasoning and sneered endlessly: "Ming Yan, why don't you just set it on fire?"

Just as Ming Yan had this intention, he lit a fire in his palm, and burned it towards the dessert wrapped in a real glutton.The moment the tongue of fire licked the dessert, the chirp of the gluttonous insects was as piercing as the tip of a knife across the glass.

When the Huya boy saw the shop being burned, he was furious immediately, and finally dissipated, a smile froze on his face.His face was split open like a mask and shattered in front of everyone's eyes, and the true face with green face and fangs finally surfaced.

Seeing this situation, Yuan Hou still felt free to complain: "You really don't look very good."

With a roar, Taotie flew towards Yuan Hou, bringing up a gust of wind.Yuan Hou suddenly tore off his coat, revealing the spells that had already been drawn on the white T-shirt, and said calmly, "I've been prepared."

As a result, Taotie didn't dare to approach him any more, and turned to look at Xiao Congshuo.Xiao Congshuo is different from them. Fragile humans are not tasty, but they are easier to hunt.The monster with a human face and a sheep's body opened its mouth and flew towards Xiao Congshuo.

A gust of wind hit, Xiao Congshuo instinctively raised his hand to block, the wound on his arm was torn open again, and blood stained his sleeve.Xiao Congshuo secretly thought something was wrong, he was afraid that the smell of blood would arouse the beastly nature even more.

Unexpectedly, Taotie suddenly changed direction, flew backwards, growled in surprise and doubt.

Seeing the opportunity, Ming Yan set fire to Taotie's fur, and saw the sparks instantly turn into flames, devouring the evil beast.

Taotie roared and rolled, the roar made the glass counters in the store shake frequently, no different from an earthquake.The evil beast didn't dare to die at this point, it stumbled and rolled towards Ming Yan.

He roared and asked, "What's wrong with me using these people's inherent evil thoughts to strengthen myself?"

Ming Yan turned around to dodge, and replied in a cold voice: "The evil thoughts and desires that they could have suppressed, it's your fault to lure them to amplify the longing deep in their hearts."

Ming Yan wanted to destroy this evil beast right away, but Tao Tie knew that he couldn't fight three with one, so he jumped out of the window and escaped with flames all over his body.

Yuan Hou stopped Ming Yan and Xiao Congshuo who were about to chase them out, and said with a smile: "Don't chase after the poor, he's been seriously injured this time, and he doesn't dare to do anything wrong in a short time."

Even if he catches up with him, if he wants to completely strangle Taotie with his ability, he will have to pay a considerable price.Ming Yan was very clear in his heart, so he stopped walking.

"Your wound has collapsed again." Seeing the blood on Xiao Congsuo's body, Ming Yan frowned and said, "Go to the hospital for treatment."

Xiao Congshuo said that the wound was just a trivial matter, and there was another person whose life was hanging by a thread: "Let's deal with Shen Siyi's matter first."

"Now that I know that I ate gluttons by mistake, things will be easier to handle." Ming Yan turned to look at Yuan Hou and asked him, "You also know what to do, right?"

Yuan Hou replied triumphantly: "Drink a bowl of talisman water, and everything will be safe."

Ming Yan changed the subject, and suddenly asked: "What's your phone number?"

"Huh?" The topic changed so suddenly, Yuan Hou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed and reported, "Add a WeChat."

Seeing him smiling from ear to ear, as if he won 500 million, Xiao Congshuo silently rolled his eyes.

"Since you know how to get rid of insects, Shen Siyi will ask you, I will send you the address." Ming Yan waited for him to show off, and explained his intention with a smile: "I will take Xiao Congshuo to the hospital first."

"Hey? What?" Yuan Hou realized belatedly that he had been tricked: "You——"

Xiao Congshuo suddenly laughed out loud, and triumphantly replied: "Just do good deeds."
