After inheriting the antique shop

One thing after another, everyone in the Ghost Bureau is busy between the ghost murder case and the ancient knife theft case.

The ordinary Yuncheng resident Xu Chengyin got up early the next day to help Aunt Ling move.

During this period, I also met a stray cat, who clung to him for a long time. Just when Xu Chengyin thought he was being touched and wanted to take the little thing home, the stray cat made another "mi" and ran away.

Xu Chengyin didn't take this matter too seriously. Seeing that the store was almost cleaned up, he also got in touch with the manufacturers who made bracelets and pendants before, so he reopened "Yi Xiping" in the ancient street.

When Du Xin heard about this, he was the first to come to join him.

"I have an appointment with my girlfriend for a fitness exercise. I pass by and take a look."

Du Xin looked at this small shop, and picked up a string of Buddhist beads by the way: "This is quite beautiful, but it's so new, is it really an antique? Wow, if you take a closer look, the same pattern is engraved on it, Unearthed in the same batch?"

"Praise me, of course not. It was produced wholesale last month, one hundred. That pattern was engraved by my grandfather at the manufacturer's request. It should be our store's trademark."

Du Xin: "..."

Is this the whole trademark?

Because Xu Chengyin's expression was too serious, Du Xin couldn't tell whether this person was joking or not.

Du Xin couldn't help asking: "The cost?"

Xu Chengyin: "Ten yuan."

Du Xin sighed from the bottom of his heart: "It's really dark."

Xu Chengyin: "..."

"It's okay, okay." Xu Chengyin said modestly, "It can still ward off evil spirits."

Du Xin: "Really?"

"Of course it's fake." Xu Chengyin said, "My grandfather used to sell this to claim that it can ward off evil spirits. It's just a gimmick, just like burning incense and worshiping Buddha. It has a psychological effect. If you are sincere, it will work. If it doesn't work, then you are not sincere. .”

Du Xin: "..."

Du Xin couldn't help giving Xu Chengyin a thumbs up: "It's not easy for your store to be open until now."

He didn't say anything, but he thought in his heart: just wait, Xu Chengyin's shop will probably be closed soon.

Now Du Xin has completely lost interest in the "factory wholesale crafts that are said to be able to ward off evil spirits and sells for [-] yuan at a cost of [-] yuan" in this store, and turned his attention to the husky lying in the corner.

The husky was wrapped in bandages, and there was a circle of shame around his neck. He lay there motionless, as if he was closing his eyes and resting his mind.

Du Xin wanted to tease it in the past, so he called it the name Xu Chengyin gave it twice: "Wangcai, Wangcai?"

The husky raised his eyelids, and slowly rolled his eyes.

Even across species, you can feel the deep contempt of the other party.

Du Xin was taken aback: "...Fuck, Xu Chengyin, you have become a smart dog, it just rolled its eyes at me!"

"Hmm? Husky looks very sarcastic." Xu Chengyin sat on the counter, holding a glass of water, and said while drinking, "But I found that it really doesn't like the name Wangcai. Maybe it's not used to it? I don't know it either. What was the name before, and no owner came to look for it, so I posted a lost dog on social software."

"You dog has subverted my perception of huskies." Du Xin said while gesturing, "My aunt's family used to raise a husky, and it is said that the house was demolished without taking it downstairs for a day. Wangcai is too quiet. "

"It's still wounded, it probably still hurts, and I'm powerless to tear it apart."

Xu Chengyin reached out and fiddled with the green plants on the table while talking.

Because he usually likes some flowers and plants, and now Yi Xiping's shop has also placed some orchids and green radishes according to his preferences, and they all look good.

Those who are familiar with Xu Chengyin know that this person has three major hobbies besides studying - planting flowers and grass, drinking water, and basking in the sun.

Live like a retired old man.

"Hey, you really have to be careful. I think your place is remote and the law and order are not good. It's not safe at night." Du Xin kindly reminded, "It's not peaceful in Yuncheng recently. The poisoning case I told you about yesterday was still a serial murder. Anyway, another person died, and there was no connection or similarity between the deceased, it seemed like a random crime. Our cultural relics management bureau in Yuncheng also had something stolen. You know, they even dare to steal from the cultural relics management bureau. What if they really think that your antique shop has valuables to grab."

"So I raised Wangcai to watch the store." Xu Chengyin looked very calm, and he was still in the mood to joke, "But I know about the cultural relics being stolen, and it's all on the news, but where did you come from about the serial murder and poisoning case?" Did you hear me? I understand so well."

"To be honest, the captain of the Yuncheng criminal police detachment is my father, so the news is true."

"Really." Xu Chengyin looked at those wholesale items and fell into deep thought, "How about changing them to a more conspicuous place? These things are enough to persuade them to quit. If they really want to grab them, I don't feel bad."

Du Xin has become a Buddha, so he simply followed suit and made suggestions: "Why don't you open an antique shop and change it to a bracelet and pendant shop."

Xu Chengyin was very persistent in this aspect, and immediately refused: "No, I still have genuine products in my store."

Although not much.

Du Xin stayed in Yixiping for a while, chatted with Xu Chengyin, and asked him if he was feeling better.

"No, it's the same, I hope it won't get worse."

Du Xin: "Oh, this is really annoying, you have to pay attention at ordinary times."

Du Xin's expression was half-smile and teasing, Xu Chengyin couldn't figure out what this man meant for a while.

Seeing that it was almost time, Du Xin said goodbye to Xu Chengyin and planned to drive to find his girlfriend.

"Huh? What is this?" Du Xin who walked to the door found an envelope neatly placed on the ground, and was almost stepped on by him.

Du Xin picked it up, looked at it, and said to Xu Chengyin inside: "It has your name written on it, and it's for you. Why did you put it on the ground quietly? Does the post office still deliver letters like this?"

"Huh? Let me see."

Xu Chengyin came over and took the envelope Du Xin gave him: "What is the Ghost Bureau? It studies monsters? How can this be more unreliable than the things I sell that can ward off evil spirits."

Xu Chengyin opened the envelope, and inside was a piece of paper, and what he saw was the big word "summon", Xu Chengyin read the words on it: "We suspect that you are related to a ghost murder case, please come here within three days The Spirit Bureau cooperates with the investigation..."

The address is also attached at the back.

Du Xin also said: "What is this, do you want to go there and have a look..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Chengyin took a picture of the summons in his hand and posted it on Moments: "It's really interesting, now liars are starting to fool the firm believers in Marxism? Why don't you say that the resurrection of Qin Shihuang requires me to pay him to open the first emperor's mausoleum Woolen cloth?"

Du Xin: "..."

Du Xin was speechless: "You really are..." You are righteous and don't believe in ghosts and gods.

But Du Xin thought this weird situation was inexplicable, and under the influence of Xu Chengyin's righteousness, he also thought it was a new form of deception.

Du Xin couldn't help but suddenly said: "Cheng Yin, I always feel that you are different from before."

"Huh?" Xu Chengyin raised his head from the phone screen, "What's different?"

Du Xin scratched his hair, thinking of an excuse: "If you can't put it into words, it will give people the feeling...well, it's more real."

"Hey, let's not talk about it." Du Xin's phone vibrated twice, and he knew it was his girlfriend who came to remind him, "My guy is already waiting, so I'll go first, bye."

"Drive slowly and pay attention to safety."

Xu Chengyin gave a warning, and then glanced at the summons, and it went into the trash can three seconds later.

This was probably the least face-to-face summon since the establishment of the Ghost Bureau, and the other party didn't take it seriously at all.

At this time, in the Ghost Bureau, Yin Gan took his time to investigate the scene of the disappearance of the Ancient Knife of the Cultural Relics Administration and just returned.

To be honest, there were no traces left at the scene, and Nianhua couldn't smell it, so it was impossible to tell what was stolen.

They asked a few lonely ghosts nearby, and they got similar answers—it was taken away by a man dressed in black.

When asked what they looked like, they couldn't tell one or two, saying they didn't see them clearly.

"Tuk Tuk".

An urban intellectual professional woman with her hair pulled back and high heels knocked on Yin Qian's office door.

"Boss, younger brother Nianhua came to report that the dog of Xue Xunlong's family was found. It was rescued and adopted by a young man named Xu Chengyin in the ancient street behind Jinyue Community. We don't have the manpower to deal with this matter now. I I sent a summons to the other party first, and then I can invite other nightmare beasts to look at the dog's memory, maybe there will be gains."

This person is one of the three employees of the Ghost Bureau besides Yin Gan - Qingniao.

As soon as Yin Qian heard "Ancient Street", he remembered the young man who impressed him last time, and couldn't help laughing after thinking about it, but he didn't attract the attention of others, because the blue bird's attention was all Attracted by the years.

"What's the matter?" Qingniao saw Nianhua, the fat cat lying limply on the table, and asked, "The ancient knife theft case is not going well?"

Nianhua sighed: "Oh, the other party is hiding everything, and the rest of the people only said that they were wearing all black. There are many people wearing black."

"Don't worry, take your time, I'm making progress."

Qingniao swiped the phone a few times, and pointed the screen at Yin Qian and Nianhua: "It's really useful to offer the boss's phoenix feather as a reward. Now most of the spirits in Yuncheng have started to help find the nightmare beast. There is an earth binding spirit to provide The clues say that we encountered a suspicious one, but the ground binding spirit itself cannot leave that area too far, so we lost it, but the approximate location can be determined."

Qingniao forwarded the clues given by the Earth Binding Spirit to Yin Qian, covered her red lips and said with a smile: "This range is definitely no problem for the boss."

Yin Qian let out a "hmm" without saying anything, but his expression already showed that the flattery that Jade Bird just said was very successful.

So this person pretended to straighten his cuffs, put his hands in his pockets, opened the French window of the balcony and fell gracefully.

Catch the nightmare beast.

Nianhua gave two "tsk tsk" looks: "Is this really a fire phoenix, not a flower peacock?"

"You dare to complain about the boss behind his back." Qingniao embraced Nianhua with her dark red nail polish, "Let's go, help my sister with work."

Just as Nianhua was about to protest, he heard Qingniao say quietly: "Don't think I don't know that the leather sofa outside was scratched by your paws. If you are not a prototype now, I would have beaten you a long time ago."

Nianhua tucked her tail back and kept silent.

In the spirit and monster situation where the food chain is formed by strength, he is no different from Huo Chan.

And now the Nightmare Beast, who has been committing crimes continuously, has not dared to do it again since he knew that he was wanted by the Spirit Bureau, for fear of revealing his position.

Although I tried my best to hide, but I couldn't help but there were people grabbing him everywhere, not to mention that now he couldn't get out of Yuncheng at all.

At this moment, he was shrinking in the shadow of the telephone pole, irritable and at a loss, thinking that he might as well smash the jar.

The two female students who were walking home from school in their school uniforms were laughing and laughing, and the nightmare beast stretched out its hand in the shadow.
