Trafford’s Trading Club

Wang Yuechuan and Professor Trevor rushed to an old bookstore, the kind where the downstairs is used to sell books and the upstairs is occupied.

Professor Trevor was eager to give it a try, and he couldn't wait to walk into someone else's bookstore right away. The old bookstore seemed to have the imprint of the times, and it infinitely increased the hormones in the old professor's body.

Or, if you can find things like ancient classics somewhere... Such an old store seems to be very convincing.

"Is there anyone?"

Wang Yuechuan opened the door and walked into the bookstore before Professor Trevor. It was almost ten o'clock in the evening, and the bookstore had been closed, but not locked. Only the dim light shined from inside.

The rows of bookshelves in front of him were filled with all kinds of books. The smell of books mixed with the moist smell of the air. Wang Yuechuan saw a woman in her forties or fifties typing on the counter on the left. Sleepy.

Wang Yuechuan glanced at Professor Trevor, then gently knocked on the counter twice, and was suddenly woken up by the middle-aged woman who had dozed off.

She seemed a little frightened and looked at the two people in front of her.

"Don't be afraid, we are not bad people. Are you the boss lady here?" Wang Yuechuan said bluntly: "We are here to find a book."

With that said, Wang Yuechuan took out a piece of paper and said, "Look at what's written on it. Is there... this person here?"

"Oh, you were talking about that book." The landlady suddenly said, "Is that what you are looking for?"

"Madam boss, you...know this book?" Wang Yuechuan asked seriously.

The landlady said casually: "I don't know, this is what my son told me. He said he saw someone posting something about looking for this book on a used book website."

Wang Yuechuan said quickly: "Then your son is now..."

The landlady said: "He, he went to buy some goods, otherwise I wouldn't still have the door open now. Oh, I remembered, he found the book, you guys just wait."

Not long after, the landlady dug out a worn hard-cover book from the cabinet behind her, "Do you think it's this one?"

I saw Professor Trevor pulling it out directly, and then flipping through a few pages quickly with an anxious expression. The flipping speed then accelerated, and he remained silent.

Wang Yuechuan frowned, "Is it this one?"

Professor Trevor then said: "Yes, this is it! The professor who wrote the book was a famous linguist in the 18th century. However, due to the war, many of his works can no longer be found. Even this one This book should be a reprinted version many years ago, and the print run should be very small! In my impression, there should be a single copy of the first edition of this book, which is hidden in the British Library. I didn’t expect it to be available in China. Find this reprint! King, your country is truly a magical country!”

Wang Yuechuan and Professor Cui Fo communicated in English, but the landlady looked like she didn't understand at all and kept looking at the woman.

Wang Yuechuan just asked quickly: "So, is this book useful for your interpretation work?"

Professor Trevor said happily: "Yes! Of course there is! With its words, I estimate that the speed of interpretation can be at least three times faster! No, at least five times!"

Wang Yuechuan nodded, then looked at the landlady, "Bosswoman, this is the book we need to find. We bought it. Please give us a price."

"Then three thousand?" the landlady said suddenly.

Wang Yuechuan nodded without saying anything and took out his bank card. But the proprietress suddenly said at this time: "Ouch! I remembered wrongly. My son didn't say this number. He said five thousand, five thousand yuan!"

Wang Yuechuan frowned, but did not stop. He just said calmly: "Think about it, five thousand is five thousand. Boss, you really have thought about it."

The landlady swallowed subconsciously, "Think, think about it, five or five thousand."

"Okay, swipe your card." Wang Yuechuan nodded.

He deliberately used this tone to test the landlady... But the result was that this was the face of a typical small citizen.

Maybe it was really just a coincidence... The "Book of the Dead" almost destroyed his previous knowledge, so the next proposition came.

If there are supernatural powers in the world, is this also the case?

"Okay! Sign it!" The landlady said happily: "Well, sir, would you like to leave your phone number? I still have a lot of old books here! My son is very good at finding old books! Next One month, next month I heard that there will be another batch of good goods! When they arrive, I will introduce them to you? "

"Let's talk about it later." Wang Yuechuan signed, then took a bookstore business card directly from the counter, and then led Professor Trevor quickly out of the bookstore.

"You two, walk slowly!"

However, the proprietress escorted the two of them out of the door, waving her hands enthusiastically, until they could no longer be seen, then she turned around, closed the store door, sat back on the counter, and shook her head. The child just lay down on the table and fell asleep immediately.

A wisp of black smoke quietly emerged from her body.

Black smoke condensed in the air, and soon turned into a black shadow.

The black shadow floated quietly above the bookstore, looking at the direction where Wang Yuechuan and Teacher Cui Fo disappeared, and said in a low voice: "Hurry up and become a magician... I like magicians the most... Jie Jie."

The black shadow quickly disappeared, leaving only a vague, sharp and harsh laugh that sounded like an old witch's sinister laughter.

…

In the car he was driving, in the passenger seat, Professor Trevor could not wait to start reading this ancient book. Wang Yuechuan looked at his obsessed expression and remained silent.

His phone rang instead. Wang Yuechuan took a look at it, pondered for a while, and then answered it.

This was a call from his superior, his direct superior in the provincial bureau.

"Yuechuan, you haven't slept yet, right?"

Wang Yuechuan said: "Teacher Zhao, what's the matter?"

"It's been almost three months since you were deployed there, right? You haven't reported to me for a long time... I heard recently that you seem to be in a bit of trouble, and you don't often show up in situations over there, right?"

Wang Yuechuan said directly: "That's right, Teacher Zhao, I actually planned to report to you recently, but there are some special circumstances here, and I haven't been able to take the time. Since you called directly, I will report Bar."

"Okay, tell me, what's the situation?"

"Teacher Zhao, I have been investigating something recently, but there are no substantial clues yet."

"What? Do you smell some big case again?"

"Teacher Zhao... I can't say anything about this yet. But please believe me, okay?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, "Yuechuan, I know you are a good comrade, and you always explain everything you do... Okay, I'll wait until you can give me a complete report. But Yuechuan, there is still work to be done. Yes, you still have to thoroughly investigate the matters that the provincial bureau asked you to come down to investigate."

"Teacher Zhao, I know, I will do my job well."

"Okay, it's getting late. If you have nothing to do, go to bed early. When you come back, I'll ask your wife to cook you some crabs. By the way, there's still half a bottle of Maotai waiting for you at home."

"Okay, it's settled."

"It's a deal."

…

…

"Are you going back alone?" Ren Ziling suddenly stood up and looked at Luo Qiu with wide eyes. Then she sat down with her arms crossed and frowned, "I don't agree!"

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Luo Qiu said calmly, "You might cause trouble if you go."

"What do you mean I might do it..." Ren Ziling's eyes widened again, but when she saw Luo Qiu looking at her and the steady smile on his face, her heart suddenly softened, "Okay, so do you. It’s so big... But if there’s anything that those in your family want to find fault with, tell me right away! See if I don’t kill them!”

Haven't you already had a fight with me once... in the private room of that restaurant three years ago?

The appearance when he threw away those contracts and the appearance now remain the same.

Luo Qiu said softly: "You should eat first."
