Just as Thor's eyes were glaring fiercely, the atmosphere in the taxi became more and more tense.
A trembling voice came from the front seat. "My two friends, you have arrived."
Thor looked out of the window and found that the taxi was parked on the side of a desolate looking street. There were various small storefronts along the street on both sides. There was a sesame seed shop called Antler Lane, a dollar store with a clearance sign, a women's clothing store, a Shaxian snack shop, a small clinic, and even a new shoe shop.
Burence's Shoe Shop.
Behind these small shops was a row of quite old tube-shaped buildings. Clothes and bedding were hanging in the corridor, as well as flowers and plants, which finally injected a little vitality into this bleak place.
Thor threw a 100 yuan bill to the driver and dragged Seth out of the car under the driver's surprised gaze.
He grabbed Seth's neck and lifted him directly from the ground. "I'm not here to accompany you to study the economic revitalization of a small city. Where is my wife? You'd better tell me quickly! Don't keep me guessing and play tricks. "
Seth's face was filled with helplessness. As he coughed, he tried his best to squeeze out a sentence from his throat. "Didn't anyone … tell you before … that when you want someone to answer a question … don't always strangle that person's neck."
Thor snorted coldly and finally let go of Seth.
Seth returned to the ground, rubbed his neck, and sighed. "Soon, we have arrived at the destination of this trip, and we will soon see the main character."
When Thor heard what Seth said, the anger on his face lessened a little, but there was a flash of vigilance in his eyes. He reached out and was about to summon his precious hammer.
But the next moment, Seth pressed his hand down. "Don't, don't, don't always think about using violence to solve problems. Compared to your strength, there is no danger here. Let's talk first. If we can't reach an agreement, it won't be too late to make a move. After all, Sif is still in their hands."
When Thor saw Seth rushing up to stop him from summoning his hammer, he almost smashed the latter's head, but when he heard Sif's name, he abruptly stopped his fist.
"That's right. Don't you want peace? Then let's start from here."
"Bullshit peace, when I find Sif, I will kill all the people who kidnapped her." Thor gritted his teeth and said word by word.
"I understand why everyone says that you have a bad temper. Compared to you, I'm so gentle that I'm like an amorous scumbag." Seth tidied up his clothes. "Forget it, you can do whatever you want in the future, but before that, please suppress your anger."
"I'm not one of those kids who aren't even one or two hundred years old. I know what to do," Thor said in a muffled voice.
"Is this … a cold joke for today? If it is, I will try my best to cooperate with you and laugh a few times."
As they talked, they walked towards a tube-shaped apartment. When they passed by the sesame seed cake stall called Antler Alley, Seth suddenly stopped. "I'm hungry. Let's buy some sesame seed cakes."
"I told you, don't play any more tricks," Thor warned.
"I'm not playing any tricks. Please, since I was held hostage by you, I haven't eaten a single bite of food. It's rare for me to pass by a sesame seed cake stall. Buying a few sesame seed cakes won't waste your time. If you are really worried that the sesame seed cake is poisoned, just watch me eat it," Seth said.
Thor didn't stop him after hearing that. He said to the owner of the sesame seed cake stall, "Give me four sesame seed cakes."
The owner didn't say anything. He pointed to the price list on the wall behind him, then pointed to the QR code on the table. After that, he stood up, picked up a plastic bag, put it on his hand, grabbed four sesame seed cakes, and handed them to Thor.
Thor stuffed the sesame seed cake into Seth's arms, then opened his wallet and pulled out a ten-yuan bill. After hesitating for a while, he pulled out another ten-yuan bill and slapped it on the table. "Give me six more!"
The owner stretched out his hand and silently put away the twenty yuan on the table. After that, he still didn't say a word and picked up another plastic bag. Thor thought the owner was too slow, so he grabbed six sesame seed cakes and wolfed them down. On the other side, Seth also ate three sesame seed cakes.
But when he ate the fourth one, it became a little difficult for him to swallow. Now that he had reached this step, Thor simply bought two bottles of mineral water from the grocery store next to him, gave one to Seth, and drank the other.
After that, the two finally followed an old lady who came back from selling vegetables into the tube-shaped building. The building had a total of five floors, and there was no elevator inside. But of course, this height was nothing for Thor and Seth. The two quickly climbed to the top, walked through a corridor full of clothes and bedsheets, and came to the room at the end.
Seth reached out and knocked on the old-fashioned security door in front of him, but there was no response from inside. Seeing that Thor was about to use his hammer again, Seth quickly knocked harder on the door.
This time, the person inside finally responded, and after another half a minute, the door opened a little.
Behind the door, a pair of small, vicious eyes first looked at Thor, frowned, and then looked at Seth, but seemed a little confused. It wasn't until Seth untied the thing wrapped around his face and revealed the jackal's head that he finally spoke in a voice as unpleasant as chalk scratching a blackboard. "It's you. What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to visit my old friends."
"No one here is your friend," the person behind the door said and spat at Seth's feet.
Seth smiled and didn't bother to argue with him. "I know what you have done. Before it's too late, I hope you can stop before it's too late."
The person behind the door sneered. "Since you refused our invitation, what does it have to do with you?"
"I just can't bear to see you play with fire and burn yourselves," Seth said leisurely.
The man behind the door seemed to have thought of something, and his face suddenly showed a look of surprise. Especially when he looked at Thor on the other side again, the surprise on his face couldn't help but grow stronger. "Seth, I remember you were arrested by the organizing committee, right?"
"To be precise, I found my conscience and turned myself in," Seth said.
"As far as I know, you have no conscience," said the person behind the door. When he finished speaking, Thor on the side couldn't help but ask, "Why haven't you opened the door yet? Can't you go in first?"
And the amazing thing was that after the person inside heard this, he opened the door obediently.
