1752 Forced you to make a move (1)
Seeing the shop assistant’s reaction, Tang Zhen knew that he had come to the right place.
At the moment, he could only confirm that the other party knew about the books, but he couldn’t be sure how much he knew or whether the books were in the store.
Although he could directly search through his memories, it would easily alert the enemy. If the other party saw that the situation was not good and destroyed the book in a desperate situation, Tang Zhen’s efforts would be in vain.
In truth, although Tang Zhen had acted quickly, he had still wasted some time. It was enough for those who were observant to react.
If the other party’s vigilance was high enough, he could completely speculate that someone had their eyes on those books from the encounter with the library and master Waller.
The fact that the other party had spent so much effort to move a few books showed that they had different meanings and must have placed great importance on them.
Therefore, Tang Zhen simply revealed his identity and let the other party know his intention of coming. He planned to lure the snake out of its hole.
As long as the other party responded, he would be able to follow the clues and find useful clues for himself.
Sure enough, just as Tang Zhen had expected, when the shop assistant heard the name of the book mentioned by Tang Zhen, his expression became unnatural. He even secretly gave his companion a look.
From this, it could be seen that the relationship between the employees was not simple. They had worked together for a long time and had long developed a tacit understanding.
The shop assistants on the opposite side also responded. When the short sword shattered earlier, they had already focused all their attention on Tang Zhen. Their expressions were uncertain.
On the surface, Tang Zhen seemed to be unaware, but in reality, he had long been observing the surroundings and paying attention to the every move of those shop assistants.
Soon, he noticed that a shop assistant in the corner had turned around secretly, as if he was using some kind of item to send a message.
He extended his spiritual power and locked onto the shop assistant. The information that the other party was communicating with entered his eyes.
“Someone is looking for those books and is causing trouble in the shop. What should we do?”
keep the other party in check. I’ll figure out his background and then make plans.
should we control this guy first? if we let him continue to cause trouble, our reputation will be ruined? ”
“You guys act according to the situation. Don’t make too big of a commotion, so as not to affect our plan.”
“Understood, we know our limits.”
After the exchange between both parties ended, that shop assistant turned around and swept a glance at Tang Zhen. A trace of cold glint flashed across his eyes.
It seemed that he had already made up his mind and was prepared to show Tang Zhen what he could do.
The tribesmen were not United, and there were also disputes between factions. However, these facts were mostly hidden, and few people knew about them.
At this moment, the customers were still waiting for a reply. They wanted to know if this was a coincidence or if the store was selling problematic products.
This matter did not cause them any losses. The purpose of stopping now was only to watch the show.
The shop assistant who was in charge of explaining looked at his companion, only to see him secretly make a hand gesture. He immediately understood his companion’s plan.
Reaching out to signal the customer not to be excited, the shop assistant turned to look at Tang Zhen and said in a disdainful tone, ” “Everyone, listen to me. We’ve just found out that this gentleman was sent by our competitor.
This person’s purpose is to cause trouble and ruin our store’s reputation. Don’t be used by him, or you’ll really be fooled.
As for the problematic antiques, they must have done something to them. That was why he was so sure that there was a problem with the dagger.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have known that there was a problem if he hadn’t touched antiques before. Everyone only needed to think for a moment to understand.”
When the customers around them heard this, they seemed to come to a realization and seemed to think that the shop assistant’s words made sense.
After all, the matter just now was indeed a little unreasonable. If Tang Zhen was said to be deliberately causing trouble, then it would make sense.
Therefore, they looked at Tang Zhen one after another. There was doubt in their eyes, as well as reprimand. There were even people who directly opened their mouths and asked him to prove his innocence.
People like them were just here to watch a show.
Tang Zhen originally couldn’t be bothered with these teroboros people. However, he thought of his plan to lure the snake out of its hole and decided to play with them for a while.
“Since you’re so sure that I’ve tampered with the items here, you must have enough evidence. Then let me ask you, is there anything that I’ve tampered with?
One or two items could be tampered with, but it was impossible for all the items to be tampered with. That kind of thing would never happen.
So, as long as you take out an authentic one to prove your innocence, it will be considered that you did not deceive the customer.
I’ve already given you a chance to prove your innocence. What do you think of this?”
After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, those customers felt that it made sense. They turned their heads to look at the shop assistant again, wanting to see how he would respond.
The shop assistant was a little embarrassed. The incident just now made him worried. What if he picked out an item and it suddenly broke? what should he do?
Seeing his companion’s awkward expression, another shop assistant stood up and said loudly to the customers, ” everyone, please be quiet. I’ve just informed the ground guards. They’ll arrive at the scene very soon and figure out the cause and effect of the incident.
This was a matter of honor and integrity, so he could not take it lightly.
Therefore, our shop is temporarily closed. Please leave for the time being to avoid any misunderstandings.”
Hearing that the shop had already called the police, the customers stopped talking and turned to leave.
As for whether the store really called the police or what would happen next, the customers didn’t care at all, so as not to get themselves into trouble.
The only regret was that he could not see the results at the first moment, which could not satisfy his curiosity.
After all the customers left, only Tang Zhen and the shop assistants were left in the shop. The scene began to become quiet.
Tang Zhen merely stood quietly on the spot. He smiled as he sized up the shop assistant standing in front of him, wanting to see their next action.
“What is your background? now you should tell me, right?”
The shop assistant said with a fake smile. Compared to before, his smile now had a trace of contempt and a smug smile of victory.
Tang Zhen gently shook his head when he heard this.
“I can’t say that you’re not qualified.”
Hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the coldness on the shop assistant’s face became even more intense. He suddenly took out a gun and pointed it at Tang Zhen.
As he took out his pistol, the rest of the shop assistants also took out their weapons from under their robes and surrounded Tang Zhen.
The atmosphere in the shop became tense. However, Tang Zhen, who was in the middle, did not have a change in his expression. His gaze swept across the other party’s proud face and a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.
“You trash are qualified to threaten me with a gun?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the shop assistants felt a burning sensation in their hands, as if they were holding a piece of red-hot iron. They were so frightened that they quickly threw their weapons on the ground.
But even so, their palms were still severely burned, and the weapons on the ground seemed to be melting. They had been completely deformed.
Upon seeing this abnormal and strange scene, the expressions of those shop assistants changed drastically. They looked at Tang Zhen as though they had seen a ghost. Their eyes were filled with an uncontrollable fear.
This method was too terrifying. It could actually destroy the enemy’s weapon without a sound. What else could deal with him?
At this moment, the danger level of Tang Zhen in the store assistant’s heart had already rapidly increased. If he could kill Tang Zhen, he would definitely not hold back.
Once again, they extended their hands to their waists. This time, they actually took out high-frequency vibration daggers. The armor-piercing stiletto with a terrifying rotation speed was brandished straight at Tang Zhen.
Using the shop as a cover and carrying so many weapons at the same time, these guys were obviously not good people.
