this is not a joke

Chapter 14 Black Pearl

After seeing the ever-decreasing time, everyone knew that the 5-minute countdown indicated in the ghost talk message had already started.

But among the seven people in the store at the moment, at least half of them are confused, which is also one of the reasons why so many people could not survive the strange talk at the beginning.

We must let them put all their thoughts on solving the problem of "looking for eyeballs" as soon as possible.

After having this thought, Wei An immediately cleared his throat, ready to let these people make adjustments as soon as possible, and quickly adapt to the strange talk.

He opened the mouth and said: "It seems that we have really encountered strange stories now. Just now I found that not only is there no pedestrian sheltering from the rain on the street outside, but even other shops are all closed. This place... should already be the world of strange stories, And not the world we used to live in!"

Because of the panic in their hearts and the tragic death of their companion just now, the others didn't know what to say at the moment, they just looked at him.

After a pause, Wei An continued: "The countdown has begun, and the most important thing for us is to find that eyeball first."

"That's right, look for the eyeball first, and you must find the eyeball immediately."

The 22-year-old clerk who was in charge of ordering just now echoed loudly.

She was the first to recover.

"First, look around your body, in your pockets, in your satchel, next to your body, etc., to see if there are any eyeballs mentioned in the mission." Wei An said.

Immediately he said to the two shop assistants at the counter: "If you don't find any after searching, just pour out the pearls that you just made into the pearl milk tea and see if there is an eyeball mixed in."

"what!"

The two shop assistants were stunned.

In fact, if you are a little more careful, you can guess the clue from the name of this strange talk "Pearl Milk Tea".

The main task is to find the eyeball of the deceased in a car accident. This eyeball may be in a hidden location, and this location must be able to hide it perfectly.

So if you think about it for a while, it is naturally the pearl auxiliary material for making milk tea.

The older clerk came to his senses again and nodded immediately: "Yeah, Xiaoye, pour the bag of pearls you just opened into the filter basin and take a closer look."

Others also heard the conversation, and felt that Wei An's brain circuit was very strange, but they also felt that it was the right thing to do, because at the moment, among the most eye-catching items in the milk tea shop, pearls Absolutely bear the brunt of it.

"Are there any pearls in the storage room?" Wei An asked.

"Also, there are more than ten packs of vacuum-packed and refrigerated ones." The young clerk replied: "Three packs of amber pearls, two packs of matcha pearls, black pearls..."

"Black Pearl, mainly looking for black pearls." Wei An emphasized.

Because among all the pearls, the closest to the eyeballs are only black pearls, like the matcha or amber pearls, and you can almost tell which one is different at a glance.

Of course, the real eyeballs must be a circle larger than these pearls, and if you look closely, you can still recognize them just by looking.

Not long after, other people in the store searched for him.

At this time, the petite woman had stopped crying, but the two teardrops were still hanging on her face, and her whole body was trembling.

And the stylishly dressed woman suddenly fixed her eyes on the man who was at the table with Wei An just now after looking for it, and said in surprise: "Zhou Wenhua, it's you!"

The man named Zhou Wenhua obviously knew her. At this moment, he raised his head slightly, and instead of greeting the woman, he showed a bitter smile, and turned his eyes to the male companion beside the woman.

"Are you following me?" the woman asked.

Just now she was sitting with her back facing the store entrance, and then the strange talk happened, and the car accident attracted all the attention, and now she went back to the store and sat down, only to find out that it was a man named Zhou Wenhua after she recovered.

Zhou Wenhua didn't answer, but still stared at the man sitting next to the woman, with a hint of hatred in his eyes.

"There are still more than two minutes!" Wei An reminded.

Zhou Wenhua was taken aback, and immediately replied: "I just looked for it, and I didn't see any eyeballs here."

The fashionable woman and the male companion beside him said at the same time: "We didn't find it."

The petite woman also shook her head.

Xiaoye, the younger clerk at the counter, raised his head and said to the older clerk, "Sister Fang, I didn't find it here, not in the filter basin."

"Take out all the other unopened pearls." Wei An asked.

Then he was ready to go directly to the storage room behind the counter.

"I'll get it, but you can't find it." The clerk named Sister Fang immediately opened the door of the storage room and walked in.

"Everyone come over to help." Wei An saw that these young people were in a very bad state. Not only were they dumbfounded, but there seemed to be some emotional disputes among them.

And it seems that the petite woman was hit hard by the scene where her male companion (should be her boyfriend) abandoned her and fled alone but was crushed to death by a truck. In just a few minutes, it seemed that she couldn't recover at all.

Wei An thought that if he hadn't been involved in the strange talk this time, these people would have been completely annihilated and basically wouldn't have escaped.

And as far as the current situation is concerned, he doesn't know how many people will die here.

The clerk named "Sister Fang" seems to be the most reliable now, and quickly left the storage room in a hurry with five bags of black pearls, shouting: "It's too late, everyone, come and help find it."

Compared with amber pearls and matcha pearls, this kind of black pearls are more popular in milk tea shops. They are usually made of starch, and they usually buy more than other pearls. It will take some time to find them.

The fashionable woman, her male companion, and the petite woman were all indifferent, while Zhou Wenhua, who seemed to be following the woman, stood up and walked over quickly.

Wei An asked the clerk to open the sealed bags of these black pearls and pour them into four different containers, so that everyone can find them separately.

But not long after pouring the black pearls into the container, the countdown showed that 5 minutes had elapsed.

The people who were busy stopped their movements one by one. Wei An stood in front of the counter. On the counter was a small basin containing some black pearls, which he was looking for.

While searching just now, Wei An has already opened the "story editor" in his mind.

But this time he discovered that running the editor to speculate on the plot was no longer free, but he needed to fill it with energy points himself.

He tried to charge 10 points just now, because after using 100 points of energy to activate the "Search Ghost Story" function, Wei An only has 100 points left, and he must save some points at this moment, in case there is still room for use later.

Unexpectedly, the editor did not respond.

There was no way, Wei An recharged his energy again, but only charged 10 points each time.

After recharging 50 points, the button of "Story Speculation" can finally be pressed again.

It seems that in the future, 50 points will be required to start guessing, but I don’t know if the plot can be speculated all the time in this ghost story after consuming these 50 points, or only one time can be speculated at a time.

But this time the speculated plot seems to be only one paragraph.

[Analyzing the plot of the host's experience...]

[According to the plot experienced by the host, the plot that may happen next has been speculated. 】

Although some of you have been busy, you haven't even seen the shadow of the eyeball.The first victim appeared, and she was the most active one in the first round of looking for eyeballs. Unfortunately, the sky is always so unfair, but bad luck was the first to befall her.She gouged out her own eyeball, then swallowed it into her stomach, then she stretched out her right index finger and pointed at you, and said in a strange tone: You don't belong here!The probability of this scenario happening is 95%]
