Wild Deer Convenience Store

Chapter 16 Where Willow Goes

It has to be said that Wei Luo's reaction was very quick - as soon as Ai Weili's words fell, she immediately grabbed Ai Weili's arm, and hurriedly stepped back a few steps until their backs were almost He stopped when he hit the cash register.

"What's wrong?" Ai Weili asked, "Did you find anything?"

"No," Wei Luo stretched his neck, looked back and forth between the glass door and the reflection on the glass window twice, and said, "But you also said that only the shadow where we were standing just now is flashing, yes Well, then why are we still standing there stupidly?"

The reflection on the glass at this moment looks really uncomfortable.

From the entrance of the convenience store to the dining table at the back, the entire wall of the convenience store is made of glass, which happens to be as long as the entire store—that is to say, the reflection on the glass presents the convenience store in its entirety out.But now, when every light in the store is on, the reflection on the glass has turned black and disappeared.

Ai Weili looked at the row of shelves that had just been lifted up, and then looked at its reflection that disappeared from the glass.

If the reflection on the glass is a real space, then the row of shelves is sinking in the darkness that can't be seen.

"Let's not go near that shadowless shelf," Wero said, placing the soy sauce bottle on the checkout counter. "I don't know what this disappearing shadow means. Is this bottle handy? It would be great if there was a more convenient weapon. Why don't convenience stores sell mace?"

She was probably trying to relax the atmosphere on purpose, but Ai Weili was not in the mood to make a joke at the moment, wishing to smash everything into pieces.

"When will these strange things end?" After being frightened again and again, she was annoyed and angry, but she was no longer afraid, and said angrily: "It's almost ten o'clock now, and no one has come, and the darkness has never come." Disappeared, strange things happened one after another, can we really just wait for dawn? Can we still go out?"

Her words were completely venting her anger, and she didn't expect Willow to answer her, and Willow didn't have an answer either.

Wei Luo lowered his eyes, the two stood in silence for a few seconds, and Ai Weili finally whispered: "I'm sorry, I was just now"

"It's okay, you don't have to—" Wei Luo hurriedly waved his hands.

"哐啷" There was a crisp sound of broken glass, which interrupted her unfinished sentence.Both of them were startled, Ai Weili took a step closer, stretched his neck to look, and found that what was smashed on the ground was exactly the can of spicy vegetables just now.

At that moment, she felt Willow's body tense up too.

The only thing that pushes spicy dishes off the shelf is the lower half of the face, right?
Ai Weili stared at a corner of the shelf, waiting for the half face to slowly stick out.

No one said anything, but Willow was slowly reaching for the soy sauce bottle on the cash register.From the corner of Ai Weili's eyes, Wei Luo seemed to be staring at that shelf just like himself - they were all waiting, waiting for something to come out from behind the shelf.

Three seconds, five seconds, seven or eight seconds passed, and there was still silence behind the shelf, nothing came out.The reflection still hasn't recovered, and they can't see what happened next to the row of shelves from the pitch-black glass.

Maybe nothing will happen, Ai Weili thought partly as comfort and partly as a fluke.Things that appear inexplicably and disappear inexplicably have appeared several times, and this time may be one of them
"I'll go and have a look." Wei Luo held up the soy sauce bottle and whispered, "Don't worry, I won't go far, and I won't go into the blackened area."

"Wait," Ai Weili couldn't help feeling flustered even though he knew that Wei Luo would only walk two or three meters away at most. "Don't act separately, I'll go with you!"

"No," Wei Luo raised his chin and gestured, "Look, there is an ice cream cabinet just at the corner of that shelf, so the space is very narrow, right? If something goes wrong and I need to back up or escape, we will Two people crowded there, it would be ridiculous if they blocked each other's way. I won't go far, just take a look, and when you think I should stop, I will stop."

Ai Weili looked at it and had to admit that what she said made sense; if two people squeezed in together, if something happened, there would be no room to turn around. —Even if it was just a light rub, she didn't know what the consequences would be.

"Then don't leave my sight," she said, "if I yell, don't leave immediately."

"Understood," Willow held up the soy sauce bottle like a baseball bat, and slowly took a step forward.

Ai Weili stared at Wei Luo's back, watching her move closer to the shelf, and before she could shout, Wei Luo stopped on his own initiative—unexpectedly, she was quite cautious at critical moments.

Wei Luo took a quick peek behind the shelves, and quickly retracted, but he didn't seem to see clearly, so he peeked again.

"Is there anything?"

"No, I'll look again," replied Willow.

It was excruciating, because they were in a brightly lit shop, but just walking by and looking at them was so unsettling.

Fortunately, there are still two hours, and Little T will come to take over the shift.Little T did not violate the principles of the town, so she would not be punished, so can she walk into the store smoothly?If strange things don't happen to little T, does that also mean that when little T comes in, she and Wei Luo can finally return to their daily life?
At the very least, the darkness solidified outside the gate should disappear. As long as it disappears, he can leave.

Thinking of this, Ai Weili subconsciously glanced at the glass door, then turned back to Wei Luo.

She froze for half a second, and slowly turned her gaze to the door again.

The darkness outside the gate did not disappear, but the reflection did.

The cash register and Ai Weili standing in front of the cash register should be reflected on the glass, but at some point, the reflection on the door turned black; How long did you stand in the area where you fell.

The products near the cash register and the cash register remained unchanged; she hurriedly looked down at her hands again, and they still looked familiar to her for more than 20 years.

When he heard Wei Luo's footsteps, Ai Weili was shocked, and immediately thought of reminding her, he quickly raised his head and said, "Don't pass—"

When her eyes were raised halfway, they stopped abruptly.

Not Vero.

Because there is no need for Wei Luo to be like this, with his feet rubbing the ground and stepping back step by step; the pair of Nike shoes are gone, and the two dry and cracked heels are getting closer to Ai Weili.

Ai Weili looked at those heels, and her whole body froze for a moment; she couldn't cry out, couldn't move, her mind went blank, and she could only watch those feet slowly turn around, revealing Ten dirty and black toes.

From under her still half-drooped eyelids, the edge of her field of vision happened to be the lower half of "Wai Luo"'s face—snow-white, as if the face had been painted countless times with wall powder, pinched out. A pointed chin.The lips were thin and bright red, as if someone had cut her face with a knife, and the slit was deep in her face, with a slight smile hooked upward.

Without saying a word, she took a step forward.

Ai Weili took a step back awkwardly, his gaze still lingering below half of the opponent's face.

What the other party was wearing was an old printed one-piece dress that was even full of insect bites, soaked in the pungent smell of mothballs; his hands were empty, swaying beside his knees following the footsteps.

One of them, like a snake lifting its body, lifted it into the air and pointed upwards, as if to make Ai Weili look up.

If she raised her eyelids a little bit higher, she would be able to see the upper half of the other person's face clearly.

But whether it's biological instinct or survival instinct, Ai Weili is firmly controlling herself not to look up—she doesn't know why, she is sure that when she sees the upper half of the opponent's face, she will definitely Regret——she took another step back, groping around with her hands, trying to find something that could defend herself.

The bright red thin mouth suddenly turned into a flat straight line, as if he was very displeased with her behavior.

Ai Weili seemed to have been pricked by a needle, she immediately came back to her senses, turned around and ran - she didn't forget that she was still standing where the reflection was blacked out; she didn't know why the reflection was blacked out, but felt that she had to Run out of here.

In the last glance before turning around, the bright red thin mouth on half of the face suddenly pressed down to the sides, cutting a deep arc.

So, is the mouth an expression of mood?
Ai Weili didn't have time to think about it. When she rushed to the direction of the drink cabinet in the store, a tall and long woman was walking on the convex anti-theft barrier in the corner of the convenience store ceiling, and she was following her step by step. Ai Weili.

What about Vero?How is Vero?Why was he suddenly alone?
She's had enough of all these things coming out one after another to chase her.

Perhaps because of the experience of being chased by paper figures, Ai Weili ran very fast this time, and quickly rushed to the back of the store; when she stopped in the corner and was about to turn and continue running, she suddenly realized that , The whole store was dead silent, and there was no movement—the half face that had been following her just now seemed to have evaporated from the air out of thin air.

She lowered her eyes, forced herself to squeeze out the courage, and looked back for a moment—the tiled floor of the store stretched all the way from behind her, and there was no second pair of feet.

Is it hiding behind the shelf in front, waiting for yourself to pass?
Ai Weili's fine hair stood up like an antenna, and he listened intently for a while, ready to turn around and run away at any time.But the front was also very quiet. She didn't dare to raise her head completely, so she only dared to fix her gaze on the ground and sweep it back and forth on the floor tiles.

After confirming that there were no second pairs of feet everywhere, Ai Weili finally had the courage to glance up at the glass window—it was this glance that made her know where Wei Luo had gone.

In the reflection of the glass window, Willow was standing by the dining table, staring at her blankly, and their eyes met on the glass.
