Chapter 156: Sister Ruo's whereabouts and magic(1/2)
Master Su closed the stall.
It was left by a man knocking his head and closing his head.
This scene was also seen by some passers-by on the streets of King Charles III. Passers-by easily recognized this as Jiang Shu, who was in the limelight recently.
At the beginning, it was fine, just pointing fingers and then asking for signatures. This was normal, and it was all within Jiang Shu's expectations.
It was not until a woman took off her shirt and asked him to stamp it that he realized something was wrong, and then looked at the crowds that were vaguely accused of being a big bunch of people.
So Jiang Shu quickly took Su Xiaoou away. The people in District F were so easily ignited for enthusiasm, and he was really unable to withstand it.
After the two left, this incident became more and more mysterious.
The reason is that the magician's elementary apprentice ran away from home with a temper and wanted to support himself with his ability.
The process is that the apprentice uses a series of mysterious methods to help ordinary people gain good luck, divine them, help them avoid bad luck, and she herself is also infected with bad luck.
The result was naturally taken back to the master for leaking the secrets.
It's outrageous.
——
Inside the magic house.
The curtains were pulled tightly, and the lights were sprinkled from the heads of the master and the apprentice.
Two people sat on both ends of the desks, one left and one right.
Jiang Shu looked at her with a calm eyes, "How much money did you make this day?"
Su Xiaoou didn't say anything, but took out a bundle of banknotes rolled together from the groove of his forearm and carefully counted them.
Then, she looked up at Jiang Shu and found that Jiang Shu was always staring at her, so she took out some change from her messy pockets and continued to count.
"One thousand three hundred and forty." Su Xiaoou replied.
Jiang Shu nodded without commenting. He said lightly: "How to make money? Explain it carefully."
"At the beginning... I just made a pinball game like this." Su Xiaoou lowered her head, held it on the table with both hands, held it crossed her fingers, and began to explain the "crime process".
"Who taught you?" Jiang Shu narrowed her eyes slightly. This kind of thing was not within the scope of creation of the people of Gucheng. There was no such thing in the history of Gucheng.
Su Xiaoou can make this thing either she is a time traveler or...
He looked at the four spirits A, B, C and D who were watching the show.
"Just... I saw A, B, C and D playing a pinball game before. I thought it was very interesting, so I wanted to make one thing like that." Su Xiaoou continued, "But it was too difficult, so I made it like this."
"Well, then?" Jiang Shu glanced at the four spirits of A, B, B and D. They raised their heads, looking dissatisfied.
A, B, C and D: Didn’t we just play 3D pinball for a while?
"Then I tried it, and it turned out that it was easy to hit the 100th level. It would be easy to lose." Su Xiaoou found that Jiang Shu seemed not angry and was much more courageous. "So I made a few small mechanisms and put a few miniature protrusions on the table, just press the mechanism under the table. But I noticed that this might be noticed by Yiyan, so I changed it again, put the protrusions on the corner of the table, and used the tilt of the table to create the movement of the ball. In this way, I would distract them and adjust the table in advance before playing."
"Well, then." Jiang Shu didn't react.
"Then, I found some things, like those who come in groups of three or three, it is best to let one of them win the big prize, one loses a big loss and the other loses a small loss. In this way, the chance of returning customers will be higher. But this is still not possible, and the money-making efficiency is not enough, so I thought of the tarot cards." Su Xiaoou took out the deck of tarot cards and did a few card pulling moves casually. "Take a little tarot card tricks and control cards temporarily, and then just look at their appearance and randomly break up some of the things that are not available. It is easy to scare them with divination."
Jiang Shu nodded, this was something he saw.
In general, Su Xiaoou's set of operations combines the psychology of gamblers, magic principles and some cold reading techniques well. She uses her line skills to quickly gain the trust of passers-by and audiences, and then set up small traps step by step.
However, Su Xiaoou is not greedy at all, which is why these passers-by quickly took the bait.
Who would have thought that the purpose of doing so many sexy operations was really for everyone's forty or fifty dollars?
Most people will only regard these forty or fifty as "divination fees". After Su Xiaoou said the vague divination lines, the person who will take the bait will naturally automatically substitute them, and the person who finds something wrong will not expose it. After all, this money is actually used to play small balls.
"Hiss--" Jiang Shu thought for a while. Su Xiaoou's operation was not enough to say that it was a fraud, but it was obviously far from his request.
So he still had a cold face: "This money is donated, from tomorrow... not right. From now on, you are not allowed to use these scams to make money."
"Hmm?" Su Xiaoou asked in confusion while collecting the money, "But didn't you say that magic is a scam?"
"Yes, but magic is to please others, and fraud is to make money from others. The purpose of these two is different." Jiang Shu shook his head.
"But all the people who finished divination were very happy." Su Xiaoou continued.
"The magician will tell the audience that it is fake, but the liar will not." Jiang Shu took the cards in front of her and flipped them up and down. This was a deck of exquisitely crafted tarot cards, and it would never be something Su Xiaoou could make himself.
He put down his card and continued, "Look, every time I ended my performance, I would make everyone believe in science."
"Does anyone believe it?" Su Xiaoou whispered.
"..." Jiang Shu thought about it and it seemed that no one believed it, so she coughed twice, "Ahem, but you should be very clear about their affairs. I don't know much magic, it's all science."
"Yeah." Su Xiaoou nodded, and she admitted her mistake simply, "I know I was wrong. This time I didn't do it well, and I took too many tricks."
"Remember to donate the money." Jiang Shu recalled the money she just said, "One thousand three hundred and forty, you can't keep a penny. Remember to donate it to the official charity in the social sequence. In the name... it's your personal."
The charities in the lonely city are also divided into official and private. Generally speaking, there will be a little less borers in social sequence charities. After all, the accounts must be made public and there are strict supervision.
"Yeah." Su Xiaoou breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Jiang Shu was not very angry. This signal made her feel much more at ease.
However, she had no choice but to go to the streets to perform honestly.
"By the way, where did you buy this deck of tarot cards?" Jiang Shu pushed the card in front of him, and the whole deck spread evenly on the desk, forming a straight line.
The quality of this deck is very good.
"It's... I can buy it in a tarot. Although it's very expensive, it's of quality. And the Kuma taught me some tricks of cheating... divination." Su Xiaoou said it all.
You just said you were lying, right?
No, you just said to the tutelle, right?
"Du Yuyi?" Jiang Shu had just read the information, so he pronounced this name.
Su Xiaoou nodded, "Yes, she is the president of a Tarot Club. Do you know her too?"
"Uh, I don't know you, I just heard of it." Jiang Shu naturally wouldn't tell Su Xiaoou that he was going to ask for something about Du Niang.
No, it's Wolf who wants to consult something.
He asked again, "Do you know her? Tell me."
"Well, a tarot card master, but some people say she is very good, and some people say she is a liar. In short, everything is said, but she must be a good person." Su Xiaoou said confidently, "Although she doesn't care about anything and is always fierce, she will deliver food to nearby homeless children every week, and I have received it."
She blinked, as if thinking of something, and then sighed, "But after becoming an apprentice, I rarely go to her street. When I saw it last time, she could no longer recognize me, and she still looked the same as she had ten years ago."
"What else do you know?" Jiang Shu said.
Su Xiaoou shook her head: "Du Niang is very mysterious, I don't know anything else."
"Well, you go back." Jiang Shu waved his hand and signaled Su Xiaoou to do whatever he should do.
"Goodbye to the teacher." Su Xiaoou waved his hand and said goodbye, leaving the magic room, leaving only the contemplative Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu half lay on the chair and looked at the ceiling.
It sounds like this, this Kuma doesn't look like a bad person, but she doesn't know what relationship she has with Clow.
Let’s talk about it then, it’s just a matter of the day after tomorrow.
He logged into the police station's archive with the ID card and security key he got from Wolf and began to search for some information.
First of all, there is information about Clow, but he searched many keywords but found no relevant content.
Most of the cases were done by him during his mechanical discipleship, planning attacks, occupying territory, and transforming human bodies...
In short, they are all demonic behaviors that cannot be washed away. They are definitely villains, the kind of villains who will not be heartbroken if they are killed by superheroes in the next second.
Looking at these contents alone, Jiang Shu couldn't find any useful information. The only thing worth noting is that the case where Kloe was imprisoned was very strange and looked more like a show.
No one knows why he appeared in an area thousands of kilometers away from District 13 and successfully climbed to the top of the Sky Tower.
Then……
He set a fire there, but nothing was burning.
Then he was arrested.
Sentence, imprisonment, and done in one go.
Five years, learning, improving, waiting for the arrival of a magician, in an orderly manner.
"..." Jiang Shu pressed his temple. He looked at these cases and tried to understand Clow's thinking, but it was obvious that it was difficult for him to substitute this thinking pattern that was difficult to say whether it was a genius or a lunatic.
It looks like there are two Clou, but in fact, it may be really bad settings like dual personality.
On the contrary, the case of Sheriff Dick Tang is better.
It was like the only light in the lonely city. He emerged five years ago and became famous after breaking a serial murder case that plagued the police for several months. Then it was out of control. The case-solving rate reached 100% in five years. A mythical figure can be regarded as a real criminal nemesis.
Moreover, he is also the only remaining heir to the new noble Dick family.
Well, except for him, the Dick family has no direct descendants, and all direct descendants died unexpectedly in an accident many years ago.
Now the Dick family is in power, all the side branches that have moved from other regions, but as long as Dick Tang is still alive, he is the only designated heir of the family.
Power is within reach, but Dick Tang is not interested in it, he just wants to solve the case.
They are considered the same type of person as Clow, but they are just two extremes.
To be continued...
