"Uncle He, I don't understand."
Bai Ruoxue widened her eyes, feeling shocked.
"I can barely understand strange people and strange things, but what do you mean by supernatural events?"
"Grandpa is still interested in UFO incidents?"
Uncle He sighed and finally spoke slowly.
"Everyone in the Bai family has heard about the old man's story. But few people can really understand the old man's secret."
"The old man opened the pawn shop for two reasons. First, he wanted to find out some things. Second, he wanted to search for people like him all over the country."
"I want to recruit these people for my own use and strengthen the Bai family."
Bai Ruoxue frowned: "But...what does this have to do with supernatural events?"
Uncle He smiled bitterly: "Miss, when the old man established the pawnshop, the entire department was completely controlled by only one person, and was only responsible to one person. No one in the Bai family knew the inside story."
"Of course, I don't know what the old man is thinking."
"I only knew about this after Second Master took over the pawnshop and occasionally heard him talk about it."
"I'm afraid only Second Master knows the specific secret."
I know!
Chen stood aside, expressionless.
I kind of understand what Uncle He meant.
Some time ago, 놛 had a private conversation with Bai Banshan.
At that time, Bai Banshan once said that the old man of the Bai family had also searched the whole country for similar people.
It's a pity that it failed.
Chen was found by Mr. Bai by accident.
Now it seems that the pawnshop is the disguise used by the old man of the Bai family to find people who travel through time.
The so-called supernatural events, to me, are just the old man's interest in UFO events. The real secret is that the old man wants to understand how the time travel is triggered? How did he travel through time?
Others didn't understand, but Chen Xiao instantly understood the old man's purpose in the Xiaobai family just by listening to Uncle He's words.
This is the spiritual connection that comes with being a time traveler.
Imagine that if you were a time traveler, you would be successful and have achieved great results in this world.
Then, will you wonder if there are other time travelers in this world besides you?
Chen was just thinking about it, but the old man of the Bai family had already started to take action.
I'm sorry.
At this moment, Chen Ruonei was full of admiration for this old man whom he had never met.
Although the two were separated by nearly a hundred years, they had never met.
But at this moment, the handover was completed through the strange cause and effect.
The old man handed his pawnshop to Chen.
It was like a request to Chen 꼎, a younger generation.
You have to continue what I haven't finished.
At this moment, Chen felt for the first time that he was not a lonely reborn traveler in this world.
It is a feeling of comfort that I am not alone.
At least, someone has had the same idea as you and has put it into action.
Before Mr. Bai got into trouble, Chen Yu took the initiative to look for him once.
It was during that meeting that Chen told Xiao the secret of the "second person".
At that time, Chen 꼎 thought Mr. Bai's behavior was very strange.
At that time, Mr. Bai also promised Chen 꼎 that this matter would be handed over to 놛, and 놛 would send someone to investigate.
Now it seems that Mr. Bai used this pawnshop for his investigation.
When the accident happened, he was in Yangcheng. According to what the captain of the secret guard said before his death, Mr. Bai seemed to have found out something at that time and suddenly rushed to Yangcheng in a hurry.
Chen 꼎 couldn't help but think divergently.
Could it be that Mr. Bai found out something?
"Chen... Chen..."
Chen Yu recovered from his daze when he heard Bai Ruoxue's voice.
"ah?"
Bai Ruoxue was surprised, "What's wrong with you? What are you thinking about?"
Chen smiled bitterly, "Sorry, I was distracted. I just thought about my meeting with Mr. Bai."
Uncle He continued, "Since Second Master took over the pawnshop, the role of the pawnshop has actually changed."
"Second Master mostly uses the people in the pawn shop to investigate the opponent's data and various information he needs."
Chen understands.
To put it bluntly.
Today's pawnshop has become a large-scale intelligence gathering department.
Then why didn't Mr. Bai hand over the pawnshop to his niece but to himself?
This Chen 꼎 is understandable.
Mr. Bai hopes that Chen will not give up and continue to search for the existence of the so-called third person.
After figuring all this out, Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
The doubts that had troubled me for several days were finally solved.
"Uncle He, thank you. You helped me solve a problem."
Uncle He smiled and returned the jade pendant in his hand to Chen 꼎.
"Keep it. Since the Second Master chose you, he must have his own considerations."
"I hope that the pawnshop can play a greater role in your hands in the future."
Bai Ruoxue stood aside, still with a head full of questions.
Look at Uncle He, look at Chen Xiao. I always feel that what they say is full of secrets. Why can't I understand it?
Chen 꼎 put the jade pendant away, and then he remembered something.
"Uncle He, I have another question for you."
"Mr. Chen, please speak."
"Do you know what the Curtain Roller is?"
"The curtain-puller?"
Uncle He frowned and thought for a long time, then shook his head.
"I'm sorry. This... I've never heard of it."
"Second Master, you haven't told me this before?"
Uncle He shook his head.
"Never."
What a pity.
Chen felt regretful, but nodded anyway.
"Thanks."
After looking at Bai Ruoxue, Chen gestured to go out.
"Uncle He, you take a rest first, and we'll go out."
Bai Ruoxue and Chen 꼎 walked to the door, but Chen 꼎 suddenly stopped and turned to look over.
"I forgot to ask you just now, how can I contact the people in the pawn shop?"
Uncle He smiled and said, "The jade pendant on your hand is proof of your identity."
"Mr. Chen, if you enter the door with the jade pendant, the other party will naturally recognize your identity."
Chen 꼎 was curious: "What is the name of this pawnshop?"
"Fulu Pawnshop. Of course, it has now been renamed Fulu Pawn Shop."
"Thanks."
After Chen Xiao thanked her, he exchanged a glance with Bai Ruoxue and gently closed Xiao Xiao's bedroom door.
Go out and come to the corridor on the other side.
Chen 缎 and Bai Ruoxue had different expressions.
Chen 꼎 seemed to be deep in thought, while Bai Ruoxue frowned with a question mark on her face.
In the living room downstairs, Bai Qingci was fiddling with a set of tea sets.
I looked up and saw the two of them, so I waved.
"Sis, you two are done talking. Come down and have some tea."
Bai Ruoxue turned her head and looked at Chen 缎.
"I do not understand."
"What?"
"Uncle He just told you, what exactly did my great-grandfather want to do by opening this pawn shop?"
Chen smiled.
"What's so hard to understand about this?"
Bai Ruoxue stared at Chen Yu: "Uncle He, back then, my great grandfather wanted to use the pawnshop to search for extraordinary people all over the country, looking for people like you."
"I don't know whether my great grandfather found it at that time, but I know that you and 놛 should be considered the same kind of people."
Chen Yu did not comment on Bai Ruoxue's guess, but asked calmly.
"Who are we?"
Bai Ruoxue was smart enough not to continue the topic but glanced at Chen.
"You have a secret."
Chen 꼎 smiled and said, "Everyone has secrets."
Bai Ruoxue gnashed her teeth.
"I'll find out sooner or later."
Chen 꼎 smiled bitterly: "Are all women so curious?"
Bai Ruoxue sneered: "Don't you know that women are naturally curious animals?"
After saying that, he stared at Chen 꼎 again.
"What is this curtain-puller you just mentioned?"
Chen shrugged.
"I really don't know about that."
