"It seems like there's a new customer."
Lin Jie looked at the dazzling white light shining into the bookstore and frowned in surprise.
These are … car lights, right?
But who would purposely come here? In this kind of weather, driving outside was much riskier than walking.
If the car broke down, there would be no place to ask for help. It would be difficult for the rescue team to come over.
Moreover, the lights were clearly aimed inside the bookstore. There was no sign of it changing direction. It felt like it was targeted.
The road in front of the bookstore was horizontal. Under normal circumstances, no one would park their car in front of the crosswalk.
Unless they were idiots.
Moreover, there was a lot of water outside. Even an idiot would know that if something rushed over and hit the car, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Even if it was to change directions, it was time to change directions.
But if it wasn't an idiot, then the lights were very rude. Remember: http://m.9biquge.com
The visitor was not friendly.
Although Lin Jie had always been warm-hearted and kind, and was willing to help others as much as he could, he still remembered Lu Xun's words: "Don't be afraid to speculate with the greatest malice."
He frowned and his thoughts turned.
Could it be that his identity as an unregistered citizen was finally exposed?
Although three years ago, with the help of the girl named Qili, he obtained a Nuo Jin official identity card and successfully managed it through a large local Chamber of Commerce.
But in the end, he was still an unregistered citizen who appeared out of nowhere.
As long as there was a problem at the root, no matter how hard he tried to hide it, it would be exposed one day.
In addition to the current situation, Lin Jie had ample reason to suspect that the scene outside was like this:
A police car with the official logo of Nuo Jin was parked not far from the bookstore. The dazzling headlights were turned on, shining white light into the bookstore as a deterrent.
It also had the effect of obstructing vision.
A few policemen were silently standing in front of the police car with guns in their hands, braving the rain and aiming at the bookstore.
There was also a higher-ranked person in charge holding a walkie-talkie and a loudspeaker. He was about to say, "Listen up, you've violated Nuo Jin's laws by illegally entering the country and forging an identity. You will be arrested immediately."
— — This was how it was always portrayed in police movies.
Of course, the main source of these guesses was actually because Lin Jie vaguely felt a sense of danger at this moment.
That was all he had in mind when it came to danger.
But at the same time, he had a feeling that this danger didn't affect him much … Could it be because of Little Black?
Lin Jie secretly guessed. He stood up from his seat and wanted to see what was going on outside.
However, just as he stood up, Doris said in a low voice, "Please wait for a moment. I'll take care of them immediately and come back to talk to you in detail."
What?
Lin Jie blinked. Only then did he realize that the guest in front of him had a more serious expression than he did.
That kind of solemn and dignified, as if he was about to kill someone.
However, because the little missy's face was very gentle and pretty, even if her gaze was piercingly cold, she wouldn't have an ugly expression or even contorted expression like most people would have when they were angry. She would only feel that the contrast was cute and handsome.
… This was a world where looks mattered.
But why was he so angry all of a sudden?
This wasn't like someone cutting the queue when it was almost the end of the queue …
Wait a minute.
As a guest who was just about to ask for his help, when he was about to agree, he was interrupted by someone who suddenly appeared.
It seemed to have the same effect as being cut in line.
Moreover, looking at the little missy's attitude, the people outside were probably not easy to deal with.
He sat behind the counter, so his vision was obstructed. However, the little missy was standing outside, so she could see much more clearly than him.
It seemed that his guess was mostly correct.
Doris sneered and turned to look outside. She continued speaking slowly, "How dare they make a move here. How audacious."
As expected, they were here for him.
Lin Jie had always been good at reading people's expressions.
Although the little missy was angry, her overall demeanor was still very calm. She also maintained her etiquette when speaking to him.
Therefore, it wasn't hard to imagine that the rude people outside who shone their lights directly into the shop weren't troublesome to the little missy.
Moreover, since they were Ji Zhixu's friends and had the title of "family," a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. They definitely had some power.
This kind of confidence wasn't blind.
However, the person in front of him was still a weak little missy. Lin Jie was still worried. He confirmed, "Are you sure there's no problem? Let me deal with it myself. "
With his … speaking skills, it wouldn't be a problem to delay for a while.
After that, he could contact the previous customers to deal with it.
Moreover, he had always wanted to test the situation under which Xiao Hei would appear.
The mastermind behind the scenes could make people travel across an entire plane. It definitely had unimaginable power. However, it always appeared and disappeared mysteriously. There was no way to communicate with it.
Doris's expression became more determined. She lifted her skirt and smiled elegantly and confidently. "It's just that there are more people. It's just that the leader is a little troublesome. Although I might expose my identity, since you've agreed, there's no problem even if I do."
"Please don't worry. Whether it's today or in the future, they won't have the chance to harm you. I'll get your approval."
"It's my honor to solve your problem for you."
Lin Jie heard what she said and felt that if he rejected her, it would seem that he was looking down on this family that had declined to the point where they needed someone else to fix the meaning of the family emblem.
This seemed to be a family that had declined but still had its own pride and power.
Sigh, he couldn't let the little missy think that he was looking down on her.
He thought for a moment and said, "In that case, be careful."
"I understand. Please wait for a moment."
Doris smiled beautifully. She left the counter and walked to the entrance of the bookstore. Her eyes became especially determined.
She knew that this was the test and condition.
The owner of the bookstore said that it wasn't a big problem, which meant that he could agree to advise the Silver Lady as a family member to restore the glory of the Iris Family.
However, he then said, "But there are new customers." However, the people outside were all enemies.
Therefore, the meaning of this turn of events was obvious. The owner of the bookstore wanted her to get rid of these people to prove the determination of the Iris Family.
Doris completely understood the owner of the bookstore.
She took a deep breath and looked at the source of the white light in the distance.
The blinding white light outside the bookstore wasn't just outside. The real source was actually more than a thousand meters away.
However, the terrifying amount of aether energy was visible to the naked eye, bringing with it unimaginably high temperatures.
It couldn't be felt in the peaceful bookstore, but at this moment, the rainwater and puddles on the ground outside had all evaporated. It was like a reverse waterfall and a pervasive fog, boiling and howling together with the lightning and wind in this space of a thousand meters.
A thin layer of water droplets condensed on the glass windows and doors like mist, trembling along with the faint tremors on the ground.
The destructive spell "Flame Curse: Extreme Sun Death Ray" was indeed extraordinary.
Once it was released, the entire area would probably be wiped out. Dark Warlocks were indeed a bunch of lunatics and thugs.
Even she found it very difficult to deal with.
However, the owner of the bookstore was so calm and steady that she fully understood the difference between their levels. He might be stronger than she had imagined.
She was determined to obtain victory in this test!
Golden fragments of light appeared in Doris' emerald eyes, forming the shape of an iris.
She reached for the door handle and gently opened the door of the bookstore.
