Hunter-Uchy's Used Bookshop

The man said, "We are not as scary as him, don't be nervous, I just want to ask you to repair the door." A friendly smile appeared on his face, and he had to say that Xiu Lian's affinity index had reached the max, and the other party almost cried when they saw him , wanting to cry and tell how Fei Tan treated him just now, but since someone is right next to him, he dare not say that that kind of tangled expression fits on the face of an uncle, no matter how you look at it, it is a bit against the law.

The uncle sneaked a glance at Fei Tan, his whole body trembled when he saw Fei Tan's cold eyes that could kill people, and hurriedly opened the toolbox to see how to repair the door.

Fei Tan walked to the counter, "I want something."

Without raising her head, Yu Xi sorted out the things piled up on the counter for so many days. "I'll give it to you when the door is repaired."

"Now."

"No."

"Kill you."

"--" Finally raised her head and looked at him, maybe it was because he had saved her before, or maybe it was something like intuition, she was not afraid of Feitan at all. "You saved your life, of course you can take it away."

"Cut." It seemed that he couldn't move her because of the sketch.He stopped talking, turned around, picked up a book, walked to the small round table, sat down and started reading.

Time flies amid the clanging knocking sounds. I don’t know if it’s because Feitan put too much pressure on the uncle and made his hands tremble, so the repair is slow, or because it’s really broken and takes a long time to repair, or it’s in Hulian Under the request of the uncle, he had to repair the shop signboard as well, and the construction period lasted until late at night and it was not yet completed.

Yu Xi closed the book, took off his glasses and looked around, only to realize that it was already so late, the uncle had fallen asleep leaning against the door, and Xiu Lian didn't go back to his house, so he fell asleep on his stomach at the round table, and he didn't see someone A guy, did he go out?

She walked out of the bookstore and looked left and right. There was no one on the street at this point. Occasionally, a stray cat or two would run by. Even Narcissa and Qilan’s stores had already turned off the lights. It’s been a long time. Seeing Qilan, I probably went to some weird place to take pictures again.

The stars in the sky were telling her that tomorrow would be a fine weather, and she climbed up the ladder to the roof to take a good look at the vast starry sky, but it seemed that someone had already arrived one step ahead - Feitan was lying on the roof with his hands behind his head, She closed her eyes as if she was asleep.Yu Xi stepped lightly and stopped when he was about one meter away from him.

"It's fixed?"

The voice suddenly resounded in the silent environment, and Yu Xi trembled obviously because she was taken aback. Looking at the boy who had opened her eyes, she calmed down and sat down. "not yet."

"En." Fei Tan responded lightly, looking at the starry sky, he seemed to be in a good mood.

"My name is Yu Xi, and I don't know your name yet."

"... Feitan."

Yu Xi gently repeated the other party's name, and suddenly seemed to think of something, "How do you know that I have Mr. Trevor Brown's hand-drawn sketches of candy and the taste of pain?"

"I heard. How did you get it?" As a fanatic fan of candy and the taste of pain, he tried various methods to get the first version. There will be sketches by Trevor Brown.

"That was a deal I made with him before. When Mr. Trevor Brown started to create, he came to borrow some materials from me as materials, and he gave me all the hand-painted drawings as a reward."

Her words made him look slightly sideways. It seemed that he underestimated this girl. He thought she was just an ordinary bookstore owner who occasionally went out to explore and let him run into her. Now it seems that it is not that simple.Even manuscripts that painters never show easily are available, "Do you have any other books?"

"I don't have the books in the minds of writers." Yu Xi blinked her eyes. Her books are probably as innumerable as the stars in the sky.She basically has the most precious editions of books known or unknown to the world, and she never shows them to others.Unless, like that gentleman, the first draft has to be handed over to her after the creation is completed.

"..." He lost, and once again he didn't know how to answer her words. "What do you think of his paintings?"

Yu Xi tilted his head and thought for a while, those portraits appeared in his mind, "It's cruel, but very real. When I was willing to lend him some rare documents, I knew he would not be an ordinary painter." Thinking of The first time she met Mr. Trevor Brown, the expression on his face when he described his thoughts on his creation, he is a person who can play with human desires and fully express them in paintings, so she couldn't help but take them out to see Two eyes, "He is very powerful."

"Ah."

An hour after dawn the next day, the uncle finally repaired the door and the signboard, paid the money, and sent him away, Yu Xicai went into the room and took out a thick file bag and put it in Fei Tan's hands.

"Give it back to me if you're tired of watching it."

"No play."

The base of the Phantom Troupe——

"Feitan is back." Finks sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, and turned his head to look at his partner who had been out for a day.

"Yeah." Feitan nodded and walked straight back to his room, raised his foot, Finx and Kuroro looked at each other, no matter how good the quality of this door is, it will be broken one day.Feeling emotional, he paused for a moment, then finally withdrew his foot, took his hand out of his pocket, grabbed the doorknob, opened the door and entered.

The two who were so surprised that they couldn't even close their mouths were left behind.

15. Just a last name

After that, Fei Tan would occasionally come to her store to look for some books to read. Of course, he couldn't see Yu Xi's collection.But because of Yu Xi's temperament of running out whenever he hears about an orphan copy, Fei Tan will always make a trip for nothing.

Usually when Yu Xi is away, Xiu Lian will help her look at the store, and of course, when Xiu Lian is not available, the shop will be closed directly.For example, this time, Yu Xi recalled that the last time she saw Xiulian was 3 days ago, she felt a little strange that she hadn't come to her bookstore for so many days, she went to his door and knocked a few times. The second door did not respond.

Maybe he was traveling somewhere, but he didn't even tell her.Yu Xi shrugged, locked the bookstore up and down, lifted the bag on his shoulder, turned around and got into the car not far away.

Just yesterday, a person came to her store and said that he had come to entrust her to find a book.As early as a few years ago, she began to accept some people's entrustment to find or borrow books, most of which were books that had been lost to the world.In the world of searching for books, Yu Xi is a magical existence. Regardless of whether the world knows about books or not, she basically already owns them. As long as she has the slightest bit of news, she can find them back.

However, she naturally has her own rules when accepting commissions.One is that she can take it back and study it first.The second is equivalent remuneration. If she doesn't have something worthwhile, she won't make such efforts, so it's more like a transaction than an entrustment.

As mentioned before, Mr. Trevor Brown is her first client.And the reward he paid was his hand-drawn draft, the value of this is naturally beyond doubt.

Sitting in the car, Yu Xi looked at Wall Street going further and further away, always feeling a little worried.Xiu Lian is not someone who will leave without telling, but even if there is something urgent, he should say something or even leave a note, just for this time when the world evaporates, when she returns this time, she will have to grab him and teach him a lesson. a meal.

After closing his eyes and having a quiet sleep, the car stopped. When he got out of the car, he saw a perfectly manicured garden. There was not a single extra weed, nor a single extra branch or leaf. Duomei, if Narcissa's "nymphomaniac" comes here, she will definitely be able to chat with the gardener here for a year or so.

Walking into the palace-like house, Yu Xi looked around. Whether it was the portraits hanging on both sides of the corridor or the vases on the table, they were all priceless treasures she had seen in books.

Having money is willful.

Behind the unchanged expression is a heart that has been feeling emotional.

I don't know how many doors I walked through, how many famous paintings I saw, how many bows I endured, how many times I turned, and finally entered a small living room.In Yu Xi's case, he wouldn't be able to live in such a big room, and at such a distance, he wouldn't be able to hold back his urine on the way to the bathroom.On the contrary, a certain "nympho" who pursues gorgeousness should like it very much.

Yu Xi was sitting in the living room drinking coffee, flipping through the books on the table, except for the ones he had read, he was not interested.A little bored, she could only choose to eat the candy and snacks on the table while looking at the living room, which was about the same size as her bookstore.

When she was pouring a third cup of coffee with a pile of candy wrappers in front of her, the door finally opened again, and an old man in a wheelchair was slowly pushed in, with gray hair, a wrinkled face, and covered legs. A thin blanket, when he was pushed not far in front of Yu Xi, he waved his hand, and all the people under him retreated, and finally only the two of them were left in the huge room.

"Are these little things to your liking?" The old man smiled and looked at the mountain of candy wrappers on the table, "I didn't expect the most famous book hunter, Yu Xi, to be a little girl."

Yu Xi nodded, "It's better than the ones sold on the street next to the bookstore." Then he took another piece and stuffed it into his mouth, as if he didn't care what he said later. "Grandpa, the person you sent didn't explain clearly. Do you want me to find something that can't be explained clearly by relaying it? By the way, can I take some candy with me when I go back?"

"Hahaha, it's hard work girl
