On the third day, Qin Xiaoxia secretly decided to go out.
To be on the safe side, even though he was sure that the thief would not leave the house to follow him, Qin Xiaoxia still went to the slightly farther center of Kehua District this time.
The urban area of Yuecheng, a third-tier city, is different from some standard big cities. Its districts include a large number of towns and villages. A few years ago, these districts were just subordinate counties, and were only planned as urban areas in recent years.
But planning is just planning, and towns and villages are still intertwined in various places, with large tracts of undeveloped land or wasteland in between.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, Qin Xiaoxia arrived at a large pharmacy in Kehua District.
A pharmacy staff member in a white coat looked at Qin Xiaoxia with suspicion, making the latter feel a little uncomfortable.
"Sir, to buy anesthetic drugs, including sleeping pills, you need a doctor's certificate. I see that you are in good spirits and don't look like you have insomnia."
Qin Xiaoxia was stunned, and immediately realized that he might have been mistaken for some undecent person.
"Ha, well, I've been finding things hidden when I wake up in the morning lately. I suspect I have sleepwalking, so I want to buy some sleeping pills to try."
The staff looked incredulous.
"Sir, sleeping pills cannot cure sleepwalking. In your case, you should go to the hospital first, then ask the doctor to prescribe the medicine and get it according to the prescription."
The tone of this sentence was noticeably heavier.
Even someone as shameless as Qin Xiaoxia felt embarrassed. He could only say sorry and leave the pharmacy with a dry laugh.
Although you can't buy what you want in the pharmacy, there are so many people who want to buy some strange things these days, and there will always be some tricky channels to buy them.
These channels play hide-and-seek with law enforcement officers and generally have a short lifespan, but are always difficult to eradicate.
After leaving the pharmacy, Qin Xiaoxia learned from his mistakes and decided to find a channel to try to buy it.
"Strong aphrodisiac effect... Takes effect in one minute... XXX weapon..."
When he searched for words like anesthesia and intoxication on the Internet, all that popped up were advertising slogans like this, which looked completely unreliable at first glance.
'! @@#, this kind of advertisement can actually be released...'
While secretly cursing the network administrator, Qin Xiaoxia thought of someone.
Yes, it’s Brother Gou.
Qin Xiaoxia remembered that he had seen a lot of "prohibited toys" in Gou Junbao's room.
These things were not banned when the people born in the 1970s, 1980s and even 1990s were children, but they are no longer legal toys now.
And Gou Junbao particularly likes these things, and they are high-quality imitations. You can tell where they come from, haha.
These things naturally cannot be bought through normal channels. From Qin Xiaoxia's point of view, those who sell contraband goods are basically the kind of people who want to make money if they can, so maybe there are some tricks.
When returning from Kehua District, Qin Xiaoxia did not forget to find a cake shop with good online reviews and bought some pastries.
Let’s just assume that the little thief is in a “minor” state.
As a child, there is no one who doesn’t like sweets, especially cream cakes, which they cannot resist.
But he bought plant milk ones because he thought animal milk ones were too expensive. The small one could buy a whole roast chicken.
…
After waiting for more than ten minutes at a Lanzhou ramen restaurant in Qingzhen, Gou Junbao finally arrived, taking advantage of his lunch break and his job to come.
"Xiao Xia, what's the urgent matter that requires you to call me here? Oh, by the way, I haven't paid you for that day's labor yet. It can't be this matter, right?"
As soon as Gou Junbao entered the room, he saw Qin Xiaoxia. While teasing him, he took out a can of beer from the drinks cabinet and started drinking.
"Boss, a bowl of beef ramen."
"Okay~"
Qin Xiaoxia was eating the ramen that had come up in front of him, with a bag of small cakes beside him. He ignored Gou Junbao's joke.
Upon seeing this, the latter reached out to take the cake himself.
Qin Xiaoxia reached out and slapped it open.
"This is not for you to eat. I still have a use for it."
Gou Junbao grinned.
"You guy... tell me, what's the matter?"
After asking, he took out his mobile phone and sent an electronic red envelope to Qin Xiaoxia with an amount of 588 yuan, which was 88 yuan more than agreed.
"Hey, brother Gou, we are friends, why are you being so polite?"
Qin Xiaoxia put down his chopsticks and smiled. He spoke nicely, but he received the orders faster than anyone else.
This made Gou Junbao's mouth twitch.
"Brother Gou, this time I really want to ask you something. Are the sellers of your toy 'pets' unscrupulous?"
(“Pets” are mostly “chickens” and “dogs”, generally referring to pneumatic BB bullet toys, some of which also use glass beads and small steel balls. “Chickens” are mostly hand-pulled pneumatic, while “dogs” are mostly electric or canned inflatable, with different powers.)
"Why, you want to play with it too? Hey, I keep it at home for fun, it will be confiscated if I take it out. But to be honest, the sellers have so many things to sell, sometimes I get nervous when I look at my friends' circle."
At this time, the ramen also came up. Gou Junbao stirred it twice with disposable chopsticks, put the store’s chili sauce on it and started eating.
Qin Xiaoxia diligently added a little more chili sauce to his dish, pushed two small cakes over to him, and also pushed the fried eggs he ordered over to him.
"Brother Gou, I don't want to buy a 'pet'. I want to buy something else, um, like a very strong drug or something."
"Gu~cough cough cough..."
Gou Junbao forced himself to swallow a mouthful of beer and choked himself, starting to cough repeatedly.
He looked at Qin Xiaoxia with disbelief in his eyes.
"Ahem... Little hero, didn't I see that? You... are a beast!"
"Go away! It's not what you think. I bought it for a use!"
"What for?"
"Um... do you believe me when I say I have insomnia?"
Gou Junbao stared at Qin Xiaoxia without blinking, with disbelief written all over his face.
"Okay, the house is haunted and I want to stun it!"
Gou Junbao's mouth twitched.
"Since you don't believe the truth, I'll just have to lie to you. My brother's girlfriend cheated on him. We've found that bastard and decided to use the beauty trap to lure him in, knock him out, and then punish him!"
Qin Xiaoxia said this angrily, his expression full of indignation was just right, and then he added a sentence.
"I'm in charge of the medicine."
Gou Junbao was stunned.
"Don't be ridiculous, this is ridiculous!"
But Qin Xiaoxia still looked indignant amidst his lamentations.
They looked at each other for a while.
Gou Junbao opened his mouth.
"Is it...Huang Jiutian?"
Gou Junbao could only think of Huang Jiutian to be considered a brother by Qin Xiaoxia, the nerdy guy. Gou Junbao could only think of himself, and he was definitely not cheated! Bah, not now, and not in the future!
Qin Xiaoxia nodded solemnly and sighed.
"Hey, if you meet him, don't point it out. It's best to pretend you know nothing. If we hadn't seen it when we were having a barbecue a few days ago, he definitely wouldn't even want to say who it was. Jiutian is a cheerful person, but once he gets stuck in a dead end, he will easily become depressed! But do you think as a brother, shouldn't we vent his anger for him?"
Gou Junbao didn't know what to say for a moment, and seemed to be still thinking about the incident. It took him a long time to react.
"Yes! How can I help?"
Qin Xiaoxia hurriedly pushed the plate of fried eggs forward.
"Brother Gou, you don't need to get involved in this matter. We also know our limits and won't do anything reckless. Just give me a channel. Whether I take nude photos for that bastard or something else is another matter."
Gou Junbao was actually a little worried that Qin Xiaoxia and his group of young people might do something out of line.
But thinking that Huang Jiutian, a seemingly sunny young man, had actually experienced such pain in a short period of time, Gou Junbao nodded silently.
…
"Oh, this seller is so bold, he actually has so many controlled dangerous goods! Hmm, a powerful sleeping pill, this thing should work!"
Qin Xiaoxia was walking in the park to digest his food after lunch, muttering to himself in front of the screen of his mobile phone.
