Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 275
[Chapter 275 A Pleasant Meeting]
At this moment, Duncan thought about all the similar talismans he had sold in the past period of time in his mind, and after thinking about it for a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief.
In my memory, the only amulets given out as special gifts were two for Morris, and the others were just ordinary commodities. After such a long time, no one who bought the amulets came to report any unusual phenomena .
After heaving a sigh of relief, Duncan couldn’t help but fell into deep thought.
Although the reason for the change in the talisman is not yet clear, the news that Fan Na brought undoubtedly reminded him, allowing him to further understand and psychologically prepare for the “weird phenomenon” that may occur around him.
From now on… It seems that I can’t just give things to others casually, and I can’t promise things casually.
The brief silence on Duncan’s side also caught Fan Na’s attention, who cast her eyes curiously: “Did you recall something?
” “Duncan shook his head, and said with a calm and sincere tone, “
Could it be that Heidi made a mistake?” I am very aware of my mental state,” Fan Na shook her head, “But the problem with the talisman may indeed lie in other links… Perhaps it is just a supernatural item mixed into ordinary products, or it may be during the production process… “
Fan Na spoke slowly, but she didn’t seem to be explaining to Duncan, but hypnotizing and convincing herself.
As an Inquisitor, she should not have been complacent about potential paranormal events, but her attention was eventually diverted from the amulet.
The gentle sound of the waves echoed in her mind, bringing wave after wave of relief, and gradually made her forget the purpose of coming here in the first place.
Fan Na raised her head and silently looked around the antique shop.
The girl named Shirley had already returned to the store, and she was looking carefully at this place while arranging things on the shelves.
Nina also helps out in the store.
A fair-haired woman named Alice was bustling about by the small stove.
Mr. Duncan sat behind the counter with a friendly smile on his face.
The sound of heavy traffic on the street outside the shop sounds a little far away, the kettle in the shop is making a sharp sound little by little, there seems to be some squirming shadows in the corner of the shelf next to it, and the stairs leading to the second floor seem to extend into the infinite darkness .
The entire building seemed to be filled with faint whispering voices.
“The tea is ready,” Alice’s voice came from the side. She brought a cup of hot tea and put it on the counter, and pushed it in front of Fan Na, “Please take it slowly.
” She took a sip from her mouth, then chewed again – she swallowed the scalding tea and tea leaves expressionlessly.
When Duncan saw the situation, he was astonished—it was the first time he had seen someone who could swallow the tea made by Alice so calmly. This Miss Fanna really deserved to be the number one beautiful girl in Puland A strong man is beyond human reach. After a while, Duncan found that Fan Na was just looking around and didn’t intend to speak. Finally, Duncan couldn’t help breaking the silence: “Is
there anything else besides the talisman?”
Na seemed to wake up suddenly, and suddenly coughed a few times violently, as if she was choked by something, she frowned and glanced at the empty teacup in front of her, then shook her head, “No, I’m just here to ask Let me know about this.”
“If you are interested in talismans, I can give you one,” Duncan laughed, and pushed the talisman he took off just now, “Go back and study slowly.” Fanna was a little
surprised Looking at the “Crystal” talisman in front of him, he paused for a moment before asking, “How much?”
“Give it to you, anyway, it’s not a valuable thing, I’m selling it as a gift,” Duncan said with a half-smile, “Or I’ll make up a set of product introductions that sound powerful for you? Do you want the historical relics version or the health care version?”
Fan Na was taken aback for a moment: “You… you sell everything here?”
“Integrity management,” Duncan spread his hands, “If If you want to sell it, the original price of this thing is 8 sola, with a set of 16 health care theories, and 22 historical stories, you can pay 25 for a black walnut box—the box promises to be within half a year It doesn’t fade, and I can give you a ticket of two hundred.”
Fan Na lived in the upper city since she was a child, entered the church training when she was a minor, and directly took a sword in her hand to fight against heresy when she was an adult. I have never seen this before in my life, and I was a little confused: “Two…two hundred tickets?”
“It can be used as a gift for colleagues,” Duncan said solemnly, “There are also young people who give to lovers…”
Fan Na thought about it seriously, Shaking her head: “Then I may not need it—but I can’t take your things for nothing.”
Then, she fumbled around her body, took out two banknotes worth ten solas from her pocket, and put them on the counter .
“The original price is eight Sola—the rest is to thank you for your cooperation and the reception of the cup of tea just now.”
Duncan wanted to say something more when he saw that Fan Na had stood up and picked up the coin. Crystal Pendant.
“It was a pleasant meeting,” she slowly smiled, and suddenly said with an extraordinarily solemn expression and tone, while raising her hand and putting the crystal pendant around her neck, “I look forward to meeting you next time.”
Duncan Feeling that the other party was a little weird all of a sudden, she frowned subconsciously, but in the end she didn’t say much, just nodded politely: “Well, welcome to come next time.”
Fan Na nodded slightly, turned and left.
She went straight through the shop, walked out the gate, came to the open space in front of the antique shop, and then stopped here.
A burst of “Didi” horns suddenly came from a nearby roadside.
Fan Na blinked, and then noticed the car parked on the side of the road, and remembered the event that the Cathedral of Storms arrived in Prand today, and quickly walked over, opened the door and got in the car.
“You finally came out,” said the young subordinate who stayed in the car while quickly starting the car, “It’s been almost an hour and a half, and I was thinking that if you don’t come out again, I will go in…” “An hour and a half
? Fan Na was a little surprised, “I thought… just forty minutes had passed.”
As she spoke, she tapped her forehead lightly, feeling as if she had missed something, and couldn’t help muttering softly: “The one who just left It’s too hasty, as if I didn’t even say goodbye.”
“It’s the same next time, anyway, the store is here,” the young subordinate said casually, and then he saw the extra crystal talisman on Fanna’s neck through the rearview mirror , I couldn’t help being a little surprised, “Did you buy a new pendant? What a surprise, you don’t usually buy these.” “
Pendant?” Fan Na looked down at her chest in doubt, and then spoke with a little hesitation after two seconds. , “Ah, I bought it…”
She shook her head, as if she had come to her senses.
“Stop talking about that, drive faster, and go straight to the port.”
…
In the antique shop, Shirley was the first to run to the counter. Duncan: “What is that judge doing here? Is he here to arrest me?”
“You’re overthinking,” Duncan glanced at the worried girl with a helpless expression, “She’s here to investigate other things You’re fine.”
“Oh, it’s fine if you don’t come to catch me,” Shirley breathed a sigh of relief, but then she couldn’t help muttering, “I feel like she’s acting weird today, and she doesn’t agree with what she says.”
“Maybe it’s because of too much work pressure,” Duncan said casually, getting up from behind the counter while talking, “After all, the immediate boss is coming.”
Nina also leaned over at this time. When she heard Duncan’s words, she immediately reacted: “Boss…you are talking about the news that was published in the newspaper? The Cathedral of Storms?”
Duncan smiled and nodded, his eyes swept over Nina, Shirley and Alice suddenly asked: “Are you interested?
“
There can’t be much business today—most of them either go to the church to attend mass, or visit the port, and they are idle in the store,” Duncan said with a look of course, “Go and see, the Cathedral of the Storm is docked It’s not something that happens every year.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Nina jumped up happily: “That’s great!”
Although Alice on the other side didn’t know what happened, she saw Nina So excited, she also started clapping her hands, only Shirley had a ghostly expression on her face: “But… Coco… But that’s the Cathedral of the Storm! We won’t be able to go there…”
Duncan looked at her with a half-smile “Nothing?”
Shirley looked up at Duncan, lowered her head for a little thought, and shook her head vigorously: “Nothing!”
Duncan nodded in satisfaction.
Then he raised his head, looked across the street outside the door, across the city, and looked towards the port of Prand.
And in his transcendent perception throughout the entire city-state, he can already feel that there is a majestic… “existence” that is gradually approaching Prand.
The Cathedral of the Storm is coming.
(Most of the symptoms have subsided, and now only cough and respiratory pain remain. The biggest problem at present is that it is difficult to sit for a long time and persistent fatigue and lethargy. I tried it today, and it seems to be okay to concentrate on writing a chapter, and it should not be interrupted. Yes, but I don’t know when I will be able to return to the double update, work hard…)
