After hanging up the phone, Shen Xing was stunned for a while, feeling that this customer named Zhuo Datong was a little weird.
It seems that he likes the wooden carving of the mask that he puts in the store, and is very afraid that the mask will be bought by others. Even if he can't come to buy it now, he still has to call to confirm.
However, Shen Xing had already taken out the wood carvings he ordered and put them in the cabinet and locked them. As long as it didn't take too long, the man named Zhuo Datong didn't have to worry at all.
The Tingwu store will open as usual the next day.
Shen Xing's finger dexterity is now very powerful. If he devotes himself to it, he can make wood carvings at least three times faster than before.
On this day in the store, I finished the wardrobe wood carving that had been ordered by a customer earlier. I called the customer to pick it up. I also made another mask, but it was only a semi-finished product.
Just before noon, I received a call from Li Naijing.
Listening to the other party's voice, he seemed tired.
Shen Xing was a little puzzled. After talking to her on the phone yesterday, she felt that Li Naijing seemed to be doing something very important. She couldn't get away from her, so she had to ask Zheng Ruijun, who was still hospitalized, to rush to Zhang Shu's home.
"There is a case here and I may need your help." After the call was connected, Li Naijing said directly without beating around the bush.
"What case?" Shen Xingqi asked.
"At Yungu Vocational College, we have sealed off that area in the college." Li Naijing said: "When you called me yesterday, you almost couldn't escape, but it was thanks to you that you called me."
"Is it so powerful?" Shen Xing was even more curious, "What exactly is it?"
"We don't know yet. We can only estimate that there is an anomaly lurking in the college and it needs to be eliminated." Li Naijing explained, "This anomaly can control a certain range of space, so you need to be very careful after entering. "
"Then how long will it take for you to start your next action? I'll come over." Shen Xing asked.
"I have to make preparations here, tentatively tomorrow night, and wait for my notification of the specific time." After Li Naijing finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
Shen Xing knew that after Zheng Ruijun went to Zhang Shu's house, he was asked to return to the hospital and stay for observation.
Because his body is already thin and thin, if the problem of excessive anesthetic injection is not completely solved, it will be difficult to deal with the root cause of the disease.
In other words, if Zheng Ruijun was here, Li Naijing would not let herself help.
She closed the wood carving shop an hour in advance and went to the wholesale market. Shen Xing bought more than twenty pairs of black rubber gloves, two bundles of strong ropes, several bright flashlights, several lighters, and a mountaineering pick for mountain climbing. Equipped with two daggers, plus the telescopic stick given to him by the investigation team, as well as the previous masks, footmuffs, windproof jackets, etc., he is fully equipped.
When I got home, I cleaned up all these things, then took out the set of necessary items, put them in my backpack, and waited for Li Naijing's call.
He waited until noon the next day when Li Naijing called and told him to start taking action at eight o'clock in the evening and meet at the entrance of Yungu Vocational College.
Shen Xing was stunned for a moment and asked: "Why do we have to do it at night? Can't we go during the day? Or does the abnormality only appear at night?"
Li Naijing replied: "There is no difference between day and night. You will know when you go there."
I had an early meal with Feifei at home, and it was only a little before six o'clock.
The two of them went for a walk on the street downstairs. They also walked in the park three hundred meters away and watched square dancing for a while.
Dusk seems to be earlier now, and the weather is much cooler than before. After watching the square dance, Shen Xing bought a children's phone watch for Feifei in a learning machine store on the street, and opened a phone card.
Sometimes he is not at home, so Feifei can contact him easily.
The two returned home just before seven o'clock.
Feifei sat on the sofa and couldn't put it down, fiddling with the dial of her phone and watch, and then reading the manual for a while.
Shen Xing drank a glass of water, picked up his backpack, and said to Feifei: "I'm going out now and try to come back before eleven o'clock. You close the door and don't open it if anyone knocks. If you need anything, you can call me directly. I."
Feifei nodded and didn't ask him where he was going, but just warned: "Be safe."
Shen Xing was slightly startled, turned to look at her, and saw the girl starting to fiddle with the watch settings again.
He checked all the doors and windows to see if they were closed, told Feifei to close the bedroom windows before going to bed, then closed the door and left.
After leaving the community, it was difficult to take a taxi in this area. After turning left, he planned to walk to the park to take a taxi.
Not long after leaving the gate of Ivy Community, I walked back with a black backpack, entered the community, and returned to the third floor through the stairs on the left.
Walking straight to the door of his house, Shen Xing did not take out the key to open the door, but knocked on the door.
Although the lights in the room were on, no one responded.
Shen Xing didn't say anything, and knocked on the door again, then stood at the door in silence.
After a while, there were slight footsteps in the room, and then the sound of moving a stool. Although the people inside seemed to be deliberately concealing these sounds, the stool legs collided with the ground, inevitably making noises.
Feifei, who was inside the door, had already moved a plastic stool, kicked off her slippers, climbed on the stool, and looked out through the peephole on the door.
Originally, this door did not have a peephole, but after experiencing so many incidents, Shen Xing made a conscious decision and hired someone to install a peephole so that he could see what was going on outside in the future.
After seeing Shen Xing standing outside the door, Feifei was stunned for a moment and took a closer look.
Although it was already dark at this time, the voice-activated light outside the door was on, and she could see clearly that it was indeed Shen Xing outside.
"Did you forget your keys?" Feifei carefully climbed down from the stool and asked.
Shen Xing outside the room did not answer, but Feifei had already seen clearly that it was indeed Shen Xing.
Move the stool away, unscrew the lock, and open the door.
Shen Xing walked in without saying a word, put the backpack he was carrying on the sofa, as if he was not ready to go out, then walked into his bedroom, sat in front of the workbench, turned on the lamp, and sat quietly .
Feifei stood at the door of the bedroom and stared at him, feeling a little strange, and asked: "Aren't you going out?"
Shen Xing, who had his back turned to her, shook his head.
Feifei was even more surprised. She glanced at the backpack he had left on the sofa. The backpack was bulging. She walked over calmly, ready to unzip it and see what was inside.
Who knows, it can't be opened no matter what.
At this time, Shen Xing suddenly walked out, walked into the bathroom, turned on the hot water, and took a basin. After a while, he carried it to the living room and placed it in front of Feifei.
"It's time to go to bed."
Feifei was surprised, but said nothing. She took off her socks and put them aside, and put her feet into the footbath. The water temperature was just right.
"Thank you, Uncle Shen! But is it too early to go to bed now?" Feifei said with a sweet smile.
Shen Xing squatted in front of her, raised his head, and his facial expression was twitching. Then the corners of his mouth were raised, the corners of his eyebrows were slightly bent, his eyes were narrowed, and the muscles of his cheeks were bulging hard, as if he had worked hard to make an expression.
laugh!
But the horror of this smile made Feifei's heart skip a beat.
