Being called brother by that grandfather proves that the two of them are about the same age, but their appearances are really different.
The young man looked at Lin Fan and was secretly amazed.
He doesn't look like an old man in his sixties, but more like a big brother in his twenties. He looks so young.
After handing over the items, the boy quickly returned to the store to continue watching over the shop.
As soon as he sat down, he took out his cell phone and secretly took a photo of Lin Fan and the old man in plain clothes, and sent it to the girl he liked.
"Guess how old these two are?"
After a while, the other party responded, "One looks to be in his sixties... The other one is no more than twenty years old, and quite handsome."
"Wrong, wrong, wrong."
The young man smiled triumphantly, then tapped the screen and sent it out, "These two are brothers... they should be over sixty years old!"
“…”
After the message was sent, the other party remained silent for a long time. After a long while, they responded again, "There's an eyewear store on Xinhua Road, the quality is good; there's a brain specialist hospital on Taihe Road. I'm not sure what your problem is, so take some time to go and see them."
The boy smiled sweetly, and the other party was finally moved by the interesting stories he shared.
For the first time ever, she actually started to take the initiative to care about him.
That’s right, he’s been playing with his phone too much recently and his eyesight has deteriorated significantly. He really needs a pair of glasses... As for the brain specialist hospital, is there any way to treat his recent decline in grades?
As expected, she is the girl he likes. She is so considerate.
He will buy breakfast and send it over tomorrow, and ask her to bring one portion for her boyfriend. Now that they have made a good start, they should keep working hard. As long as they can move the other person, they will succeed one day!
…
Outside the store, Lin Fan and the old man in plain clothes had no idea that the polite young man was starting to walk down a path of no return.
At this time, Lin Fan's attention was all on the old man in plain clothes.
Although the other party was extremely enthusiastic and excited, it seemed that there was no problem.
But if you look more closely, you can see that the other person's face is full of fatigue, and his voice is a little hoarse. It seems that he has not slept all night.
After all, after encountering a monster, even if their lives are not in danger, ordinary people will still be terrified and dare not fall asleep at all, for fear that if they close their eyes, the monster will take their lives.
The old man in plain clothes had been on edge, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Lin Fan.
The Intimidation level relies on such means to force a living person to collapse, and then uses some small illusions to kill the living person.
If you are brave enough, you don't even need any tricks or powers to ignore the intimidation-level weird threats.
Of course, if you encounter an intimidation level or above, you still have to die.
The only difference is that the timid ones die softly, while the brave ones die hard.
Lin Fan didn't waste any words and went straight to the point, "Tell me, what happened?"
If it were a normal environment, he could observe the flow of evil aura to confirm the situation of the old man in plain clothes.
But in the urban village where sunlight is rarely seen, there is an evil aura lingering everywhere, which interferes with his judgment and makes it impossible to distinguish whether it is the environment or the old man in plain clothes.
Hearing Lin Fan's words, the old man in plain clothes had a serious expression and said, "I'm telling you this, so don't think I'm crazy."
Thinking of what happened at midnight, his body trembled, and the fear still did not dissipate.
But at the moment, he was more afraid that once he told this matter, no one would be willing to believe it. Not only would they not save him, but they would also send him to a mental hospital to die. That would be terrible.
Before speaking, he tried to calm Lin Fan down and give him a shot of prevention.
Seeing that Lin Fan looked normal, the old man in plain clothes calmed down a bit. Then he lowered his voice and said tremblingly, "I saw a ghost in the middle of the night."
After saying that, he opened his collar, completely exposing his neck.
I saw a black palm print between his collarbone and chest. It was not too thick or clear, but the Yin energy gathered on it was much more condensed and thicker than the subtle evil aura lingering around.
After taking a few glances, Lin Fan had already reached a conclusion in his mind.
This is a strange mark that is taking one's life. What is certain is that the old man in plain clothes has indeed been targeted by the strange thing.
But the strangeness of the mark is not strong.
It should be just a stronger intimidation-level monster, and no matter how strong it is, it is only a lower-level life-chasing-level weirdness.
Only this kind of weirdness is not very efficient in taking lives and harming people. If multiple targets violate its rules, they will all be marked with the weird mark, and the weirdness will kill them one by one in order.
It's like queuing and calling numbers.
The reason why the old man in plain clothes was able to wait for Lin Fan to come all night without dying was largely because it was not his turn yet.
Judging from the method of this strange mark, it is speculated that when the handprint turns completely purple and black, it will be the time when the strange thing comes to take your life.
Now, even if Lin Fan can take action, he doesn't know the location of the monster. He has to wait until the monster appears on its own.
Or, wait until he obtains the strange skill of ghost shadow.
The ghost shadow has a tracking ability that can trace the source. Through the negative energy of this strange mark, it can directly find its source and then destroy the opponent.
In other words, the established plan has not changed, and the priority is still to capture the ghost first, and then deal with the trouble of this strange mark.
The question is, where can we get the strange eyes of this old man in plain clothes?
Thinking about it, Lin Fan first comforted the frightened old man in plain clothes and said softly, "Don't worry, it's not a big problem."
"I made a mistake, didn't I?"
The old man in plain clothes pulled up his collar, feeling relieved, and visibly feeling much better. "Today I searched on Baidu... and it said this is a platelet disorder causing blood stasis, but it just looks like the palm of my hand. I'm going to the hospital to check it out..."
Before he could finish, Lin Fan interrupted, "You really have seen a ghost."
Hearing this, the old man in plain clothes who was chattering away paused, his expression dull.
Then, the mood that had just relaxed became nervous again, and the body trembled with fear. "Bumping into a weird thing... is this not a big deal?"
It seems like you are standing on the shore, telling the drowning person that it is not a big deal, and you are not afraid of drowning at all.
“There is a solution.”
Lin Fan spoke up to remind him and reassure him.
Then, he took a few steps forward, looked around, and took in the surrounding environment.
After observing for a while, he frowned and asked, "Have you lived here from the beginning?"
"No."
The old man in plain clothes was bewildered and shook his head. "I used to live next to Hongshan Park, but now I have some money and live here."
This is where the problem lies!
Lin Fan reacted and thought that tens of thousands of dollars was just a small amount that would not make much difference, so he did a favor for the old man in plain clothes.
But in fact, for these lonely old people, tens of thousands of yuan is a huge sum of money!
After getting the money, the old man in plain clothes moved to a better living environment.
This is why he missed the terrifying scene of the strange pupil and unfortunately encountered the strange thing that was taking his life.
The most urgent task at the moment is to throw the old man in plain clothes back to Hongshan Park and challenge the horrific scene where the ghost pupil is.
