1660 Chapter 1660-losing people but not losing face
After returning to the mountaintop, Zhang Zian turned the small mountaintop upside down and carefully searched every corner, including the back and side of the teahouse. The girl might not have gone down the mountain immediately after leaving the teahouse, but circled to the back of the teahouse for some reason. He thought that she had already gone down the mountain.
He searched the entire mountain peak, but he couldn’t find her.
Fati had long noticed his strange behavior, and when he approached, he asked,””You lost your wallet?”
“Not exactly … But it’s almost the same.” Zhang Zian took a deep breath.”Something strange happened.”
“What strange thing?” Fati perked up.
“How did that middle school girl disappear in the blink of an eye? It grew wings and flew away?” He said, puzzled.
The Fati was stunned.”Which girl?” The one at the foot of the mountain?”
Zhang Zian was speechless.
“What’s wrong?” Fati was even more confused.
“That … Didn’t a middle school girl leave the teahouse just now? Where did she go? Did you see that?” He placed his palm across his chest to his chin and gestured the girl’s height.
Fati stared at him and saw that he did not seem to be joking, but his words were getting more and more incomprehensible to it, so it answered in confusion,””Just now, you were the only one who left the teahouse.”
The F * ck?
Zhang Zian was dumbfounded and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
“From the time old time tea and I walked into the teahouse until I came out, no one walked out. Were you too engrossed in the sword dance that you didn’t notice?” He tried to confirm again.
It wasn’t that he didn’t believe in divination, but it was just too bizarre. A living person had disappeared for no reason. Was there going to be an X-Files show on the mountaintop?
“I’m not that obsessed. If someone leaves the teahouse, I’ll definitely know.” Fati answered his question from the side.
It was an insult to wolves to compare the senses of wild animals like wolves with humans. Their sense of smell, hearing, and the meat pads on their feet could sense the smell, sound, and vibrations of humans when they walked. It was impossible for them to let a living person pass by without knowing anything.
This was strange. He clearly heard the sound of her opening and closing the door, but fa tuo said that she had not left the teahouse. This contradiction …
“Then, before I left the teahouse, did you hear the sound of the door opening and closing?” he asked again in another way.
If the answer was negative, then he could only assume that the entire teahouse was in some kind of different space.
“There is.”
Fati nodded.”Someone opened and closed the door, but no one came out. I thought someone was going to leave but changed his mind at the last minute.”
Zhang Zian finally found the root of the problem.
After entering the teahouse, there was a screen. The manager, the waiter, and he only saw the girl’s figure disappear behind the screen, and then heard the sound of the door opening and closing. They naturally thought that she had left the teahouse, but no one saw it with their own eyes.
The screen only served as a cover and couldn’t hide anyone at all, so the answer was to urge her to walk behind the screen, open the door, close the door, pretend to leave, and then … Disappear between the screen and the door.
Could she be a magician who could make people live?
Or was she an Esper who had the ability to become invisible? The legendary China Dragon Group?
A supernatural event? It’s still daytime, what the hell? Although Vladimir, who was good at warding off evil spirits, was not present, the exorcism power of the law was not given for nothing.
“What the hell happened?” Fati had long been unable to suppress his curiosity.
Zhang Zian told it the details of what happened. It was only a few minutes, anyway. If it could find the blind spot in his thinking and explain this matter with a reasonable answer, it would be great.
However, the Fati was also dumbfounded, not to mention suggesting other possibilities.
“That’s impossible, right? Did I miss something? How could a living person just disappear into thin air?”
It thought of the Indian wolf spirit in the redwood forest. It was also secretive, but the wolf spirit was an immature sprite, so it had such characteristics.
“But the other explanations are even more ridiculous.” Zhang Zian scratched his head. He even felt that it would be better if he didn’t chase after them. Out of sight, out of mind, so he wouldn’t have to encounter such strange things.
The man and the wolf looked at each other and reviewed the whole thing again, but they still couldn’t figure out how she disappeared.
After the old men finished their sword dance, they sat on the stone bench and rested for a while. Then, they chatted and laughed as they went down the mountain together.
The mountaintop was completely silent.
Zhang Zian didn’t understand, but he couldn’t keep thinking like this. So he told the law and went back to the teahouse.
His tea and snacks were left on the table, intact.
“You’ve been gone for so long. If I hadn’t paid, I would have thought you took the opportunity to run away …” The waiter mumbled.
After he left, shopkeeper ye did not brew tie Guanyin tea because he did not know when he would return. If he brewed the tea too early, it might get cold by the time he returned. Now that he was back, she started to make tea.
Zhang Zian sat back in his chair. The jasmine tea was a little cold, but the temperature was just right for the sensitive cat’s tongue. He poured two cups, one for old time tea, and refused the shopkeeper’s offer to warm the tea for him.
“Did you educate that little girl?” The waiter saw his expression and asked curiously.
He coughed drily.”Of course. I taught her a harsh lesson, and she also realized her mistakes and reflected deeply on herself. She promised that she wouldn’t make the same mistake again. She wrote down my contact information and said that she was going back to get my red packet money and return it to me …”
This was the so-called losing people but not losing face, even if your face was swollen, you still had to pretend to be fat.
The innkeeper and the waiter were a little suspicious. The girl didn’t seem like someone who was so easily educated, but they weren’t present, so even if they didn’t believe it, they couldn’t produce any evidence.
After a while, the shopkeeper made the tea and the waiter served it to him. Then, the two of them went back to the counter and talked in low voices. They talked about trivial matters of life and occasionally talked about the girl.
As for Zhang Zian pouring two cups of tea for himself, they had already gotten used to it a year ago.
His words could only fool them, but not old time tea. It observed and knew that things were not as simple as he had said. While making tea, it slipped out of the window and asked Fati for details. When it came back, it was also surprised.
Old time tea sniffed. The girl’s scent did stop between the door and the screen. The smell she left outside had been blown away by the wind.
Old time tea came back and shook its head slightly, indicating that it had no idea either.
Zhang Zian had expected this. The man and the cat drank in silence, with a helpless and bitter smile on their faces.
The three of them could be considered to have failed miserably today.
