Chapter 218 Encountering Aozaki Orange
For a moment, the two looked at each other.
For no reason, a strange atmosphere permeated between the two of them, and the temperature in the store seemed to drop a few degrees.
This dark red woman has an atmosphere that cannot be expressed in words, it is a feeling that is very different from ordinary people, just looking at it makes Jiang Li understand that this woman is absolutely extraordinary and mysterious.
"Excuse me, are you a colleague?"
The woman with dark red hair looked at him for a while, and then a decent smile suddenly appeared on her face.
Her gaze had naturally ignored the two wives next to her, and her attention was clearly on Jiang Li.
"What colleagues?"
Jiang Li revealed a look of confusion.
Sorry, he's not the Riddler.
Although he could sense that this woman was unusual, Jiang Li couldn't guess her identity at first glance, nor did he know what she meant.
"No, maybe I misunderstood, please don't care."
She couldn't see whether she believed or doubted in her eyes, she just stared at Jiang Li for a while, and then smiled.
"Boss, please tell me about the dessert here..."
She turned to look at Boudica, the proprietress, and placed an order with her, asking for quite a lot.
However, even though she didn't look at this side anymore, Jiang Li could feel keenly that this woman still focused most of her attention on him.
Soon, she left the shop with a large packing bag.
Until the second before leaving, she didn't even look at Jiang Li.
But such a performance, in Jiang Li's eyes, was even more strange.
When ordinary people face him, they can't help but stare at him all the time, as if they are admiring some artwork, even if they look away, they will look reluctant. This is a carnival of the brain, just like taking drugs The same makes people unable to extricate themselves.
There is only one kind of person who will deliberately not look at him.
That is the person who is wary of him.
"Who is this?"
Jiang Li was a little confused for a moment.
The thin memory seems embarrassing at this time.
At least give him a name so that he can recall related memories.
After that, he stayed in the store for another half an hour.
Thanks to this, the desserts in the store were completely sold out. Mrs. Boudica even apologized and said that she couldn't thank him. Usually, the leftovers can be given to a few shop assistants, but today there are too many customers.
After expressing that they didn't care at all, Jiang Li and Minamoto Raimitsu set foot on the road home.
Just walked into the residential area.
Jiang Li's eyes flickered slightly.
Several birds hovered over the surrounding houses, their outstretched wings were as black as crows, they came and went in mid-air, and occasionally stopped to rest on the telephone poles, showing no intention of leaving.
"Well, it's almost time for the birds to migrate!"
Minamoto Raimitsu didn't doubt that there was him, but just lamented the passage of time.
"That's right."
On the surface, Jiang Li also showed no signs of change, but his heart became serious.
This blackbird was almost exactly the same as the blackbird he met when he was wandering around the city two nights ago, and this time there were several more than last time.
Could it be that they came to spy on me?
There is no reason!
He wrapped himself up tightly that night, not showing half of his face, and he was still under the night, so it shouldn't be so easy to expose.
Temporarily unable to figure out the reason, Jiang Li pretended nothing happened.
He wanted to find shadows related to the other world, but that didn't mean he would take the initiative to be exposed to danger. It is true that with his strength, he shouldn't have to worry too much, but his mother and sister should be protected anyway.
At least they can't be exposed to the vision of magicians, devils in human skin.
The birds circling in the sky did not leave until night came.
Most of them were even focused on Jiang Li's bungalow, and at night they stood around the house, looking at it motionless.
"It's totally being targeted."
Jiang Li, who returned to his room after taking a bath, intuitively sensed the spying sensation coming from outside the house, and made a clear judgment in his heart.
However, fortunately, it was just being targeted.
If the other party is plotting something wrong, he should be killed right now.
The reason why he hasn't taken action yet is either that his identity has not been confirmed, or he is worried about something.
But what is certain is that such surveillance may continue for some time.
"There is no way to go on like this."
Jiang Li thought about the method in his heart.
Long-term monitoring is really too dangerous, not to mention putting his mother and sister in danger, even if he himself wants to do something in the future, he will be hindered.
The person who watched him must be found out.
But he is completely ignorant of magic, and cannot use the familiar to find the magician behind him. If he is forced to do so, he may cause the familiar to explode like last time. Similarly, it is useless to charm the familiar. Instead, he will scare the snake and expose himself.
"It would have been fine if Aoko Aozaki hadn't asked for leave."
Jiang Li sighed.
In fact, when he went to the student union yesterday, he planned to find Qingzi Aoqi, but she seemed to have a cold and asked for leave, so he couldn't find anyone.
"Wait, Aozaki...?"
It felt as if a bolt of lightning flashed across his mind, and Jiang Li suddenly became enlightened.
"Isn't it likely that the woman I met in the dessert shop was Aozaki Chengzi? Could this be the beginning of the magic night story?"
As soon as Aozaki was mentioned, he recalled it instead.
He can't remember the plot of Mo Ye's original work at all, there is not even an animation, there is only one game, but he vaguely remembers what happened when Aoko Aozaki was in high school, and Aoko Aozaki happens to be a high school student now!
So, now should be the time for the sisters to kill each other?
"Try it out tomorrow!"
Jiang Li made up his mind.
This is a great opportunity.
"Snapped!"
"Crack!"
Um?
A crackling sound came from outside the window, causing Jiang Li's eyes to concentrate.
what happened?
Holding the idea that he could not blame me for coming out to check the situation even if he made a sound, Jiang Li came to the window and opened the curtains.
In the dark.
Several familiar black birds had disappeared without knowing when.
With Jiang Li's eyesight, he could barely see some black spots stained on the electric pole not far away.
not for a while.
Other foreign objects entered his vision.
First there is a bird.
Different from those black birds, it was a bird with a metallic luster that reflected the white moonlight. It hovered under the night sky, and its eyes exuded a crystal-like luster, which looked unusually incongruous under the moonlit night.
But its presence is not strong.
What is really scary is the male figure standing at the end of the alley like a dark walker.
His whole body is wrapped in a pitch-black coat, even with a bowler hat on his head, making it difficult to see his figure clearly.
It seemed to be aware that the curtains were drawn.
The man looked up.
for a moment.
Two scarlet crescents were imprinted in Jiang Li's eyes.
