Chapter 96: Those who believe live, those who do not believe die
The blonde girl was confused.
Before she took out the contents of the box, the owner of the store suddenly drove away the customers.
What's going on?
The incident suddenly added that she has a relatively gentle personality, and she didn't even know how to speak for a while.
The white young man behind was anxious first, rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward quickly.
"What did you say? Have the guts to say it again!"
Seeing that his companion was thinking of taking action, the little fat man on one side quickly stepped forward to stop him, but due to his poor athletic ability, he almost killed himself Stumbled.
Fortunately, another African-American young man stood in front of him in time.
"Lucas, calm down, don't forget we still have a party today."
"If you get into trouble because of this, all subsequent arrangements will be ruined."
The words of the African-American young man more or less persuaded Lucas.
"Grant is right, let's go."
The Indian girl with curly hair and brown skin advised.
Several people came out of the door one after another.
Only the blonde girl was left standing there.
“Hailey?”
Behind, seeing that she had no intention of leaving, another blond woman looked puzzled.
"Elise, I just want to know why the shop owner said that. I'll be here soon."
The girl known as Hailey, who holds the box, turned around to explain.
Elis?
When Su Fan heard the name, he glanced at the woman speaking at the door, and then lost interest.
This Iris has nothing to do with the previous psychic, it's just a coincidence that he has the same name.
Sora has a nice face, and his eyes reveal a clear sense of stupidity, not too smart.
“No need to persuade her, Hailey has been obsessed with the occult for a while, right?”
Outside the door, a Hispanic female student spread her hands.
“Such inexplicable people and things always arouse her desire for discovery.”
“I almost forgot about this... When did you know about it, Madeleine?”
>
“Secret.”
As they walked, they were already waiting outside the store.
After persuading her companions to leave, Haili turned around.
“Why did you make that suggestion just now?”
“Have you not read the contents?”
“Yes. It’s a deck of Tarot cards. But the pattern is a little strange.”
“It’s just the pattern that’s a little strange?”
Su Fan’s continuous questioning reminded Haili of the scene at that time.
To celebrate their friend's birthday, they rented a villa for a birthday party.
But they underestimated their ability to drink, and the beer they brought was quickly consumed.
So, everyone began to rummage inside the villa, trying to find the villa owner’s wine collection.
But instead of finding any alcohol, we found a basement with a no-entry sign.
Lucas forced open the wooden door, and everyone entered and found that it was a room that collected various occult and astrological items.
This box is placed on the bookshelf in the house.
Before they could do anything, they happened to meet the owner of the house rushing back.
After discovering that they had opened the house, they became furious and kicked the group out...
The box was brought out in a hurry at that time.
“Can cards of unknown origin be used in tarot divination?”
Across the way, the young shop owner asked, making Hailey blush.
"There is an evil aura on the card. If you use it casually, you will be killed."
Su Fan is straightforward and does not talk nonsense.
"Is there... is there?"
"Most people can't see it.
Hearing this, Hailey's eyes looked a little wrong. Most people can't see it, but you can see it.
This Why does he sound like a magician?
The most serious consequence of violating industry taboos is bad luck.
The more I think about what this shop owner said, the more alarmist it becomes. .
Is it because she doesn’t understand the rules?
“Those who believe will live, those who do not believe will die. Just take care of yourself.
"Hailey!!"
The calls of her friends came from outside the door. Hailey didn't have time to think, picked up the box on the table, and turned around to leave.
But Su Fan had already withdrawn his gaze and continued to read the sutra.
No matter how clearly you say it, there will always be people who put themselves at risk.
Although he has not seen the relevant plot, he roughly knows that this is the beginning of another horror movie.
Without him, the taste is too strong.
Look at this standard hodgepodge small group, white, black, Hispanic, Indian, all living together, still three men and four women.
If we add Su Fan, we will have four Asians, four men and four women.
So correct, this lineup.
I just don’t know when they will come back and how many of them will be left when they come back...

"Hailey, you are grinding in there What did you say to that guy?”
Paige, an Indian-American girl, sounded rather angry.
"I just asked why he said that."
Hailey said helplessly.
"I don't think he is that kind of lunatic. A normal person would never curse someone to death for no reason."
"How did he answer?"
Madeleine asked curiously.
"He said...he said..."
Facing the curious eyes of her companions, Haili suddenly found it difficult to speak, and finally gritted her teeth and relayed Su Fan's words.
“He said that the Tarot cards in this box have evil power and will kill people if used.”
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. One glance, and then a burst of laughter resounded throughout the street!
Among them, Elise and Lucas laughed the most.
"Paxton, your father is really right. The manager of this antique shop is indeed an amazing psychic~~"
Lucas leaned forward and back, facing everyone The little fat man among them smiled.
"Evil power~~sounds like an old supernatural legend like Bloody Mary~~"
Elise wiped away the tears that appeared in the corners of her eyes, her voice trembling.
Although the others did not laugh as wildly as the two of them, they all looked speechless and dumbfounded.
In their view, the Asian boss was clearly an alarmist liar.
"Paxton should go back and persuade your father. If you must believe, he should go to a formal religious place such as a church...Family gatherings are not reliable."
Peggy came close to the little fat man and tried to persuade him kindly.
“…well…”
The little fat man didn't know what to say.
His father is a patrolman, and he was originally a non-believer, but he started talking about related things for no reason some time ago.
Now it seems that I was probably deceived.
"I seem to have seen this young man on a treasure appraisal show before. He was quite popular some time ago."
Madeline suddenly had an idea.
“Ah, it’s the poisonous treasure appraiser, right?”
Grant, the African-American young man on the side, also remembered it.
Both he and Paxton are interested in pottery and porcelain, so they watch relevant TV stations and happened to see that program.
“It’s interesting that a liar can be on TV.”
Lucas shook his head.
"...He is indeed a bit exaggerated, but actually I also think we should put this box back."
Hailey, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke,
Opening the box for the first time at that time, There was a strange gust of wind blowing in the basement.
“I have a bad feeling.”
