Colin, the brave man who had angrily gone to the devil's den to prove himself, had just taken a step out of the shop when he hurriedly retreated back.
Of course, it was definitely not because he was suddenly afraid.
It was because he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to bring along the exorcism tool. If he went there just like that, he would simply be courting death. He was not a fool.
Even if he was going to die generously, he had to first expose the true face of the devil!
Boss Lin still did not know that in just half a month, he had changed from an "honest man" to an "evil spirit" in the eyes of his neighbors, and then to a "devil". His status was slowly rising.
Colin twisted his fat body, sticking his butt out as he rummaged around, muttering,
"Where's the holy water? Where's my holy water again? I remember there's still a little left … "
After Father Vincent left, Colin was angry and scared. In order to vent his emotions, he almost smashed his beloved television. As for the other things, naturally, they were not spared. They all became the "garbage heap" on the ground at this moment.
The holy water given by the priest bore the brunt of it. If not for Colin's caution, the glass bottle used to hold the holy water was still considered sturdy. If he wanted the holy water now, he would have to reconfigure it … or lick the holy water on the floor clean and turn himself into a holy exorcism tool.
"Ah! Found it! "
He raised the bottle in his hand. There was still about one-fifth of the holy water left in the transparent glass bottle. The first website was m.9biquge. com
The owner of the video store had a steady personality. He sprinkled the holy water around the room and the door three times a day, so the consumption of the holy water was naturally very large.
Colin was a little hesitant. "With only this little left … will it be effective? Even if I want to anger this devil, I have to hurt him first, right? "
It was really difficult for him to use the brain that was usually responsible for resting to think about problems.
At this moment, he suddenly saw something shining on the ground by his feet.
Colin bent down and picked it up to take a look.
It was a thin coin, about two knuckles wide.
He seemed to remember that he had kicked the sofa against the wall in anger. He seemed to have heard the sound of metal falling to the ground.
This coin might have been stuck in the gap between the sofa and the wall. Because of this kick, it fell down and rolled into some junk pile.
Now, because of his messy search, it slipped out of the pile of junk.
No matter how much Colin tried to fish in troubled waters, he was still a businessman. He recognized that the coin in his hand was not a coin issued by the Central Bank of Nuo Jin.
A normal Nuo Jin coin had an abbreviated silhouette of the entire city engraved on the obverse, while the reverse was engraved with the value of a few coins ranging from one cent to one yuan. The thickness of the coin was about one millimeter.
The banknotes also came in a complete set, and they had unique anti-counterfeiting methods.
On the other hand, the coin in Colin's hand was even thinner and very light. There were three simple concentric circles drawn on it, and in the middle was a vertical spindle pattern. It looked ancient and had a hint of mystery.
"This coin looks familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before. This feeling is really strange …"
Colin muttered to himself as he looked at the coins in his hand in confusion.
Soon, he remembered where he had seen it before.
This coin was their family heirloom …
When he was young, his father, Old Colin, hadn't passed away yet. He was the previous owner of this shop, and he often took out this coin to show him, and told him stories about it.
Colin's memory was already blurry, and he only remembered that it was some lucky coin with magic, and that their family's ancestors had relied on it to make a fortune.
But because he was naughty and mischievous, he didn't know where this coin was, and Old Colin even beat him up.
But at that time, their family had been reduced to running a video store. This coin had more of a symbolic meaning, and at least it proved that their Colin family had once been glorious.
As for the so-called lucky magic … if it was useful, would Colin still be guarding such a run-down video store to pass his days?!
"And I've even become neighbors with a demon!"
After he finished his recollection, Colin angrily held the coin in his hand, holding the holy water in one hand and the coin in the other. His originally slightly cowering thoughts were replaced by the anger in his heart.
Although he didn't know whether the legend of this coin was true or false, Colin naturally thought that it was more likely to be false.
But it was better than nothing … Bring it! He hoped that the ancestors of the Colin family would bless his descendants!
"Anyway, whether I go today or not, this demon definitely won't let me go. It's better to end it directly! I've had enough of these days of being on tenterhooks! "
"I don't want to continue to wait and continue to be neighbors with a demon. If one day this demon wants to eat meat, he'll make a move on me. This feeling is terrible! It can't get any worse! "
Colin swore to add to his anger.
He gathered his courage and once again walked out of his store. He rushed straight to the bookstore next door, holding the holy water and the coin high, and kicked open the half-closed door of the bookstore.
At this moment, in Colin's imagination, he seemed to be the most powerful warrior in the world.
He straightened his chest and even thought of his lines.
— "Demon, don't underestimate humans!!!"
But the scene after he kicked open the door was different from what he had imagined.
There were customers in the bookstore at this moment, and there were quite a number of them. They were all together, about five or six people standing in front of the counter, and seemed to be chatting with the owner of the bookstore.
Because Colin kicked open the door with a bang, this group of people, including the owner of the bookstore, turned to look at him in unison.
"What?" Colin, who had died bravely, was stunned, and recognized the identity of these people wearing dark green jackets with giant tree patterns.
They were the largest commodity transit and transportation organization in Nuo Jin — the Xingshu Chamber of Commerce.

Edmond pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, and looked up at the shabby bookstore without a sign. He turned back and said, "This is Mr. Lin's residence. You must be careful. Don't touch or look around. Our task is only to try our best to satisfy Mr. Lin's request, and help him make his ID card. This is also the owner's wish."
The five people behind him were all Cherry's subordinates in the Xingshu Chamber of Commerce. They said in unison, "Yes, Mr. Butler."
Yes, the leader of this team was Cherry's butler, who was absolutely trusted like the head maid, Bella.
He looked about fifty years old, with gray hair and a beard above his lips. He wore a decent suit and white gloves, and looked very reliable.
Edmond took the lead to enter the bookstore, and closed the door behind him.
The bookstore had just opened for business today. The owner of the bookstore was sitting leisurely behind the counter, reading a book, and a delicate and small girl holding a brass box was meditating.
Lin Jie heard the noise, put down the book, and looked up. He saw the prints on these people's clothes, and said, "People from the Xingshu Chamber of Commerce? I've been waiting for you for a long time. "
Edmond put his hand on his chest and saluted, "Hello, I'm Edmond Chapman, Miss Cherry's butler. It's my pleasure to serve you."
