"A thief?"
There were surprised voices coming from the side.
Zhang Yangqing said this in front of the department store managers.
Chen Xu was stunned on the spot. There were indeed some valuable things in the department store.
Did Zhang Tianshi decide that strange things were hidden among those valuable things?
If that's the case, why don't you just go and get it? Why steal it?
While several department store managers were discussing, Xiao Xuan had already reacted.
"I understand, the headmaster asked me to use my identity as a thief to sneak into the department store reasonably."
There is a very key point here, that is, the weirdness will also accumulate experience.
After experiencing the first three Taoist friends, Wei Wei must have concluded that the department store is already asking people with advanced Taoism to deal with him.
Therefore, when the third person appeared, Weiwei did not act rashly. Through observation, he judged that he had some cultivation, or that he was not a real security guard.
Since we have already guessed it, the weirdness will definitely not appear.
The two identities of customers and security guards have become the targets of strange suspicions. There are not many identities that can enter the department store at night, and the thief is one of them.
It makes sense for thieves to go to department stores late at night to steal valuable things.
Xiao Xuan is already familiar with the general situation of the department store, and now he just needs to find a way to get in.
After he explained this, Chen Xu and others also expressed their cooperation. If Xiao Xuan needed it, he could provide a spare key and take out the detailed design drawings of the department store for Xiao Xuan to check.
This will make it easier for Xiao Xuan to steal valuable things in the department store.
How would the chairman feel if he knew that his key members were helping others steal the company's property?
However, Xiao Xuan rejected these and said: "If I were too familiar with the situation inside, I would not be able to integrate into the role of a thief. I am very alert to the weirdness this time."
Since he said so, Chen Xu and others also expressed their understanding.
It was still some time before midnight, and Xiao Xuan began to prepare for playing the role of a thief.
A thief is not a role that can be played casually. To make Weiyi believe that he is a thief, he must at least start changing his clothes.
Xiao Xuan began to imitate the thief's thinking. Since he was a thief, he would definitely not want to leave any clues that could identify his identity when he went in to steal things.
Then gloves, masks and peaked caps must be worn, shoes are preferably flat shoes, and clothes and pants are the most popular style.
In this case, even if he is seen by surveillance, there is no way to lock his identity.
As for where to enter and what tools to use to steal things, it all depends on how Xiao Xuan prepares.
At two thirty in the middle of the night, night falls.
The department store was shrouded in a thick layer of darkness, and something unknown seemed to be moving silently inside.
He seemed to be the master of this department store, patrolling his territory proudly.
But all this began to fall silent with the entry of a thief.
Xiao Xuan's method of entering the department store was very simple and crude. He used pliers that could cut steel bars to cut off the iron window of the toilet on the first floor.
Then he climbed in through the window.
The reason why he used this method was because he had tried other methods, such as using two wires to open the lock and looking for a device to cut the glass, but they all ended in failure.
In the end, I chose to work hard to achieve miracles.
He also explained that he was stealing things anyway and would not be discovered the next day, so it didn’t matter how he got in, as long as he fit the identity of a thief.
When he entered, he could feel the cold and dark atmosphere of the department store, as well as the pungent smell of disinfectant from the toilet.
Because there have been two strange incidents here, there are no security patrols at night.
After coming out of the toilet door, Xiao Xuan turned on the flashlight directly.
In fact, his original plan was to use the faint moonlight shining in to cleverly avoid the surveillance cameras he had memorized during the day.
But sometimes, although the plan is good, it is very difficult to implement it in practice.
The sky is filled with dark clouds tonight, and it is even more gloomy and depressing inside the department store.
As an 'ordinary person', there is no way to find the way forward without turning on the flashlight. As his footsteps echoed in the empty first-floor hall, the things hidden in the darkness were already beginning to move.
According to memory, Xiao Xuan was walking through the clothing area in front of him and heading to the entrance of the stairs on the next floor.
Where the flashlight shines, only the shadows of several mannequins can be seen quietly emerging on the far wall.
Their postures are actually normal, but the shadow on the wall makes people feel something is wrong, because his hands are not shaking, but the shadow on the wall seems to be 'swaying' slightly. This feeling does make people feel an inexplicable fear.
And in the shadows that cannot be illuminated by flashlights, the darkness is terrifying and even more frightening.
“So this is what it feels like for ordinary people to stay in a strange and strange environment.”
Xiao Xuan muttered to himself, ever since he sealed the power in his body and came to such a strange place. , the body will naturally have some negative emotions.
After a pause, Xiao Xuan continued to walk inside. He did not forget his mission, which was to steal the valuable things here.
During the day, he saw gold and silver jewelry on the 18th floor. Those things were valuable.
But when his eyes were not paying attention, several pieces of clothing suddenly moved automatically. Xiao Xuan turned around suddenly and found that the movements of the mannequins had changed slightly.
The changes are so subtle that it would be difficult to detect them unless one has a super memory.
As an ordinary thief, Xiao Xuan naturally quickened his pace and stayed as far away from this place as possible.
But when he came to his senses, he had already appeared in the doll area.
He remembered that he had spent some time in the doll section during the day. These dolls were fluffy and felt very good to the touch. At that time, he considered buying a few to play with.
But now, the dolls were lying there motionless. When Xiao Xuan passed by, he always felt that the eyes of these toys were staring at him. Some of the dolls were even tilted where he couldn't see them. The head stared at him.
Every time he looked back, these dolls were just as usual, which gave him the idea that maybe it was his own delusion.
If there is someone next to him, you can see that Xiao Xuan’s hair has stood up, he is still swallowing saliva, and his nervousness is palpable.
Being in a dark department store late at night, there have been strange incidents here, how can you not be scared?
Without exploring the strange place, he still quickly left the doll area.
At this time, he finally came to the entrance of the stairs.
In places under surveillance, he tried to keep his head lowered and not reveal any of his features.
Brisk footsteps appeared in the dark and quiet corridor of the department store.
But at this moment, there were some "tap-tat-tat" footsteps mixed in.
The sound was intermittent, as if coming and going.
Xiao Xuan could clearly detect that the frequency of this footsteps was different from his own. It was not coming from him at all, let alone an echo.
That means something weird seems to have appeared, and it’s still around you!
Thinking of this, Xiao Xuan quickened his pace and ran quickly towards the 18th floor.
Under the mask, my breathing became heavier and faster, and a little sweat had soaked into the edge of the sun visor.
Even the hand holding the flashlight began to tremble unconsciously.
It’s just that he is going upstairs very quickly now, so it is difficult to notice this.
Finally, he reached the 18th floor.
At this moment, his chest was rising and falling, as if he had been frightened.
At this stage, he did not deliberately look at the elevator, but accidentally noticed from the corner of his eye that the number displayed at the elevator entrance was 1.
In other words, the elevator now stops at the first floor.
After calming down a little, Xiao Xuan came to the counter where the gold and silver jewelry was.
The air here seems to be filled with an indescribable luxury and nobility. Even in the darkness of the night, you can still feel the unique brilliance.
As soon as the light of the flashlight touched the gold and silver jewelry area, it was immediately reflected by those exquisite jewelry and turned into bright spots of light, jumping and flashing in the darkness.
And in Xiao Xuan's eyes, greed beyond fear also appeared.
In the face of greed, even at the risk of death, some people still keep going.
