Now this compass has just awakened a little, and its ability is really limited.
After the "tracing crime" function was disturbed by unknown reasons, only the "identifying evil" ability remained.
When Shen Chen just came in, the woman with earrings closest to him was locked by the compass, and the result was that no magic energy leaked out.
When the compass was pointed at another woman, the power of the compass seemed to be exhausted and fell into silence.
So Shen Chen had to stain the woman's blood on the compass, wait for its power to recover, and use "identifying evil".
If Shen Chen's perception is good, there should be only these two people in this store.
At least for now, one of them has no problem, no, it can only be said that there is no problem identified by "identifying evil".
And the other one, is he infected, or is he also fine...
Did the monster leave the store unknowingly, or was it so well hidden that it could not be found at all...
After finding this place, Shen Chen has realized that things are not that simple.
Mu Qingzhi had already stood up and asked Shen Chen——
"Sir, what do you need?"
Shen Chen turned his head and happened to catch the inexplicable expression of struggle on Sister Earring's face.
Before Shen Chen could speak, she had already said to Mu Qingzhi——
"Sister, Sister Mu Qingzhi, I suddenly found that I have something to do, so I will go back first..."
After saying that, she glanced at Shen Chen and then turned around.
Shen Chen couldn't understand that look.
It seemed passionate and regretful.
"Wait." Sister Earring paused because of Shen Chen's voice.
"Is that your stuff?"
Turning around, she found that Shen Chen pointed to a pile of cheap cosmetics on the table.
Her cheeks flushed, she lowered her head to pack up, and then ran out of the store.
This time, Shen Chen did not stop her.
However, in the sight that ordinary people could not catch, there was a mysterious breath that slowly floated from the woman's head to Shen Chen's hand, and then floated to the woman with a mysterious color.
And this breath was the "spirit" of the woman.
Shen Chen used his S-level ability-
Spirit Binding.
Shen Chen turned around and did not look at her back.
Although, in theory, she should be just a normal person, Shen Chen still used means on her.
After all, he had just found one of them and hurriedly found an excuse to leave, which was a bit too deliberate.
Controlling her spirit, her every move will be under Shen Chen's surveillance in a short time.
And now, he took a look at the compass and found that the blood had only traveled one-fifth of the distance along the edge of the compass.
"Sir, sir."
Mu Qingzhi shouted twice again and took his eyes away from Shen Chen's compass.
Shen Chen glanced at her calmly, then said——
"Give me a haircut."
Haircut?
Mu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, then responded——
"Yes."
She just felt strange, after all, Shen Chen's temperament was really different from any previous customer.
What she didn't know was——
If the young men and women in the imperial capital knew that Shen Chen let a low-level hairdresser like her touch their hair, even cut it.
They would really go crazy!
They valued class and status more than their lives. In their eyes, even a strand of Prince Shen Chen's hair was extremely precious.
Stepping into such a dusty and rotten place was also a blasphemy to their noble status.
On the contrary, Shen Chen, who was at the top of the class, looked at everything indifferently.
Because in Shen Chen's subconscious mind——
The young talents in the imperial capital circle and the rotten fish and shrimp at the bottom of the remote city.
To him, there was only a difference... between useful and useless.
…
After Mu Qingzhi was ready, she watched Shen Chen sitting on the worn-out chair without any burden.
Somehow she felt guilty.
He looked like a nobleman from some family, how could he come to this place?
Mu Qingzhi shook off the extra thoughts in her mind and touched Shen Chen's hair with the scissors.
When her fingertips touched it, they trembled for a moment.
Then she began to operate slowly. This time, she was more careful than any time before.
"Sir, you should not be a local in Qingdu."
Mu Qingzhi asked like a ghost.
"Yeah."
"I heard your accent, sir, it doesn't sound like a local in Qingdu, haha, then! Where are you from..."
Mu Qingzhi's voice was very crisp at first, then it became lower and lower, and the last sentence was almost vague.
It seemed that she realized that it was not polite.
After a moment of silence, Shen Chen replied.
"The Imperial Capital."
"Ah? The Imperial Capital!"
Mu Qingzhi's hands pausedA moment.
"Well, but strictly speaking, I am also from Dongdu, after all, my ancestral home is in Dongdu."
The imperial capital is the residence of all the top dignitaries in the empire, and it is the gathering place of the most powerful families from all over the country.
The Shen family originated from Dongdu a long time ago.
Although the Shen family's base camp has always stood in the center of the imperial capital since the establishment of the empire.
But in fact, Dongdu has been controlled by the Shen family since ancient times.
The governor of Dongdu, every previous term was a puppet supported by the Shen family.
Obviously, Mu Qingzhi couldn't understand it at all, but was simply shocked by Shen Chen's voice.
"You actually..."
Mu Qingzhi fell silent, not knowing how to speak.
Although she was shallow, she also understood-
She and this young man should be people from two different worlds.
"What about you? Didn't you go to college? You work here."
"Me?"
Mu Qingzhi was very surprised that Shen Chen would ask her, and then quickly answered-
"Yes, I... I didn't get into college, and then I worked part-time here. I've been working here for a month... But I should leave soon, um, after I get paid..."
"That's right, this place doesn't look safe for you."
"For me, a place where you can't make money is the least safe."
Mu Qingzhi laughed at herself, and when she found that Shen Chen didn't laugh, her face turned red and she felt a little embarrassed.
It seemed that she realized she had told a cold joke.
But the next moment, she found that Shen Chen curled his lips, revealing a little sarcasm.
"Qingdu has a population of 20 million, and there seem to be 20 to 30 poverty-stricken areas?"
"Yes, sir, 27."
Mu Qingzhi added.
"It occupies 30% of Qingdu's area and 40% of its permanent population. In addition, the middle-class second ring area occupies 12% of the area, and the inner ring with the Governor's Mansion as the center occupies 5% of the area. More than half of the remaining area is wasteland and desert, without any trace of human beings."
Mu Qingzhi pursed his lips with a smile, without any emotional fluctuations, and continued-
"About 1% of the people in the inner ring occupy more than 90% of Qingdu's resources and wealth...
"While they were swinging their golf clubs, the edge of Qingdu was cursing and arguing over the half-month power outage."
Mu Qingzhi paused and asked tentatively.
"Sir, the Imperial City should... be much better. "
Although it was very strange and even offensive to discuss such things in the dark corner at the edge of the Third Ring Road of Qingdu.
But Mu Qingzhi still asked because she thought - maybe if she missed today, she would never meet people from the Imperial Capital again.
Just now, Sister Earring said it well. People like them, if nothing unexpected happens, will never get out of the ditch of the Third Ring Road of Qingdu in their lifetime.
Mu Qingzhi felt that a long time had passed, but in fact, only three breaths had passed before Shen Chen spoke.
"The population of the Imperial Capital is over 70 million, and the top families and dignitaries in the country are all gathered here. If I tell you that those families control 80% of the resources and wealth, do you think it is 'much better'. "
Mu Qingzhi smiled and then shook his head.
"Is it also unavoidable in the capital of the empire? But it is better than Qingdu after all..."
"Madam."
Shen Chen interrupted Mu Qingzhi and continued.
"I think you may not understand what I mean. 80% is not about the city of the Imperial Capital. "
Mu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, and seemed to be unable to react to Shen Chen's words.
"Not for the city of the imperial capital..."
She repeated it first, and then seemed to understand something, and her pupils suddenly condensed.
"Yes... it's for..."
Her voice trembled, as if she had heard something incredible like a fairy tale.
"Yes, for the empire, the entire empire."
Shen Chen said.
