Chapter 101 If you don't want to use your brain, then pay "What did you say……" Haley and the others felt that Su Fan's words seemed to lower the temperature of the entire antique shop a little. "Did I hear it wrong?" The fat boy asked stupidly. Peggy suddenly felt a chill all over her body. It turns out that when he said Lucas had a dead look on his face, he was referring to this! "The order of death isn't based on the order of divination?!" Haley suddenly remembered a fatal key point. "Of course not. Didn't I tell you? The power of evil spirits is not strong." Su Fan explained slowly and even made a cup of tea in front of everyone.
"If you really encounter such a vicious person, he will come to take your life even in the daytime." Freddy and the Grim Reaper are prime examples of this. "But didn't Madeleine go out with him? This shouldn't be the case." Paige asked in panic. "He will be crazy about love, and you need to be careful where you go..." Hayley muttered in a trance. "It was because he sent Madeleine home that he set out on the night road alone and was killed by the evil spirit in the tarot card..." Hearing this, Grant felt that he had grasped the point. "Does that mean that we just need to stick together and nothing bad will happen to us?" "If the curse is so easy to get rid of, why are you here? You can just hang out on the street during the day and go to a party at night." Su Fan sneered. "The only way to survive now is to bring me that set of tarot cards." "Aren't you... worried that the evil spirit will haunt you?" "Sir, maybe we should discuss this..." Paige hesitated. She had just lost her best friend's life because of the tarot cards and didn't want to involve more people. Su Fan was too lazy to talk nonsense and raised his hand. The laptop computer that was still on the table closed automatically and flew back into the fat man's backpack neatly. Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked beyond words.
Especially Grant, his expression could only be described as dumbfounded! "...Now I know why my father insisted that I find him..." The fat man spoke in a dreamy voice, his face dull. "Do you have any questions now?" This time, everyone shook their heads in unison. "Then go back and get the cards." After Su Fan finished speaking, he was about to send them away. "What if we encounter something strange on the way back?" Haley reacted the fastest and thought of the details that could not be ignored. "If you want to save your life, there are smart ways and stupid ways. Which one do you choose?" “What’s the smart thing to do?” The little fat man asked. "It is to avoid the pursuit of evil spirits according to the interpretation of one's own Tarot fortune." "The way we elect stupid people." Haley chose the second option without hesitation. Su Fan took out a talisman from the counter. "This kind of talisman can ward off evil and avoid danger. Keeping it in your arms can save your life at a critical moment." When everyone heard this, their eyes immediately lit up. Haley was about to reach out to take it, but saw Su Fan reaching out his hand instead. She subconsciously thought that the other party wanted to shake hands with her, but Su Fan pushed him away in disgust. "You don't want to use your brain, but you don't know how to pay?" Haley was a little embarrassed. "How much is this talisman?" "Ten thousand." "How many?" "Ten thousand dollars, no bargaining." Originally, the talisman was supposed to cost five thousand dollars each, but Su Fan didn't like this group of young people who were ignorant of the immensity of the world. So he started to raise the price. "Why don't you go and rob..."
The fat boy was about to complain when Grant covered his mouth. "Let's buy one, one for each." "Where's Madeline? She's home. Do you need anything for her?" "Buy it... Even if she doesn't want to, one more talisman is an extra layer of protection." Several people took out their credit cards, and Su Fan also took out his POS machine. Renovation is not just about upgrading the interior and exterior decoration, but also purchasing the supporting equipment. Thanks to his hard work, the store is now completely different from what it used to be! Old man Su, your antique shop back then was not big enough, nor strong enough! It depends on me to carry it forward. Haley was the first to step forward and swipe her card, then turned around in a strange manner. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but when the boss took out the POS machine, there seemed to be a little pride on his face. Is it because of the sudden income of $60,000? Can't figure it out. Pay the money in one hand and deliver the goods in one hand. Soon, several people put the talismans in their arms for safekeeping and left the shop. ------ noon the next day. In the empty activity room of the university, Haley and her group gathered together again. But this time, the original group of seven was missing one person. "Lucas died at a prohibited train parking area in the subway station." "It was the curse of the Tarot cards that came true. The evil spirit led him to the wrong place." Haley's tone was heavy. Everyone gathered in a circle, and Peggy was comforting Madeline, who was crying with red eyes. The relationship between the two had just made some progress when they suddenly parted ways. The sudden mental blow, coupled with the knowledge that she was cursed with death, made Madeline look haggard and a little dazed. "The tarot cards have not been taken away. They are in my bag now. I just need to take them to the store manager to lift the curse..." "Did he tell you all this?" Madeline turned her head and looked around. "You believe what he says." "This is not a question of whether or not to believe it, this is a fact that is right in front of us."
The fat man didn't know how to explain. A magical scene was playing out right before our eyes, leaving no room for any doubt. "Anyway, the store manager is a powerful figure, so you won't be wrong if you trust him." As he spoke, Paxton handed her a talisman. "This is what we crowdfunded to buy for you. It can be used for self-defense. Wear it carefully." Madeline stared at the yellow talisman for a long time without responding, and suddenly spoke in a low voice. "You guys think, could this all be the work of that store manager?" "He silently placed a curse on it when you entered, and then killed some of us." Hearing this, Haley looked at her friend in disbelief. "How is this possible? We didn't even know each other before, why would he harm us?" Madeline had no intention of shutting up. "The Tarot card issue should be handled by people who are involved in divination. I guess the store manager doesn't know much about astrology and mysticism..." "Compared to her, I would rather trust the occult expert I found on the Internet..." She glanced at everyone's chest. "You bought these talismans. You must have spent a lot of money... Maybe this is his purpose?" "Not only can he squeeze money out of us, but he can also complete his evil plan of killing people..." "If he really wanted to save people, why didn't he save Lucas as well?!" As the words continued to flow from her mouth, Madeline's expression became more and more resentful. Hayley Paige and the others stared at each other blankly. For the first time, they felt that their good friends, who they had been with day and night, were so strange. "enough!" It was Grant who interrupted Madeline. Anger was evident on the latter's brown face. "Madeline, I know you're still upset about his death, but at least you shouldn't lose your basic sense of right and wrong." "Don't you think that your thoughts are too dark? Without any evidence, you are wrongly accusing others based on your own assumptions." "I don't remember the Madeline I knew being so despicable!" "Haha, who can say for sure..." But Madeline obviously did not change her mind because of the scolding from others. (End of this chapter)
