Chapter 112 Buying Toothpaste

I was already quite tired today, but out of habit, Mo Fan forced himself to finish coding a chapter of the novel, shook his drowsy head, let out a breath, glanced at the time, and unconsciously approached It's two o'clock in the morning.

In this hot summer, even at this time, there is still a trace of scorching heat in the air, and even a person like him who doesn't sweat very much has a faint sweaty smell on his body.

He couldn't help but frown slightly. The smell and feeling made him feel very uncomfortable. When he was about to take a bath, he suddenly remembered that he had run out of toothpaste this morning.

This can be said to be a habit of his. He must brush his teeth every time before going to bed, otherwise he will feel very uncomfortable in his mouth, and he will not be able to sleep soundly.

I have been playing games all day today, how can I be too lazy to buy them?If you don't buy it today, you will have to run to buy it tomorrow morning without brushing your teeth, which will make you even more uncomfortable.

So Mo Fan can't do it today. Fortunately, there is a 24-hour small supermarket downstairs, so it's not a big problem.

I came downstairs slowly, because this is not a bustling area in the city, at this point in time, there is very little traffic on the street, and there are almost no pedestrians.

Walking to the right for about 30 meters, I came to the entrance of a small supermarket, but the shutter door was closed, but there was still light coming through the gap under the door, it seemed that someone was still inside.

Mo Fan had been here several times at night before, and he clearly remembered that this supermarket was open 24 hours a day, and the night shift was a pretty young girl in her 20s, which he remembered deeply.

But since the lights inside are still on, the people inside must have not left, so knocking on the door to buy a box of toothpaste at this time shouldn't be too much, right?
The average person is obviously not that thick-skinned. After all, asking someone to open the door in the middle of the night to buy a box of toothpaste is really shameless, embarrassing or embarrassing.

However, Mo Fan was obviously an ordinary person, without the slightest hesitation, he knocked on the shutter door in a gentle manner. Although the sound was not loud, it was quite clear at night like this.

This time there was still a faint sound inside, but after he knocked on the door, the inside suddenly became completely silent, and there was no sound at all.

After waiting quietly for a while, no one asked, and no one came to open the door, as if there was really no one inside.

"Hey, why are you forcing me?" Mo Fan shook his head, then lowered his voice, and shouted in a deep voice, "Police, open the door quickly, if you don't open the door, I will force my way in!"

There was a moment of silence inside, and immediately, a thick and slightly flustered voice sounded: "The door is unlocked, comrade, pull it in by yourself."

Mo Fan didn't leave any ink, and slowly opened the rolling door. The situation inside slowly came into view. The shopping area was on the right, and the cash register was on the left.

Standing behind the cash register was a middle-aged man with a beard and a haggard look. The man was wearing a black T-shirt, and his hair was messed up like a bird's nest. It was even worse than Mo Fan's.

The middle-aged man looked at Mo Fan who was slowly approaching, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.If you say you're a policeman, it's okay if you don't wear a police uniform, but what the hell is this messy hair and those big flip flops?Is the current police quality so low?

"Comrade policeman, what's the matter?" The middle-aged man squeezed out a smile in doubt.

"I'm just kidding, I'm not a policeman, so I'm here to buy a box of toothpaste." Mo Fan said with a cheeky smile.

Knocking on the door to buy toothpaste in the middle of the night?Ghost letter!
The middle-aged man only regarded it as a clumsy excuse for the other party, but the other party's "fresh and refined" attire convinced him a little more, and he still said with a smile on his face: "Then hurry up and buy it, I will close the store after I finish shopping." gone."

"Yeah." Mo Fan nodded, and then leisurely entered the shopping area.

The middle-aged man watched the other party slowly disappear from sight, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes kept flickering. His right hand, which had been hidden under the counter, was tightly holding a handful of fruit that was shining with cold light. knife.

"Uh...uh!"

Under the counter, strange voices kept coming. The middle-aged man frowned, took two steps back, and looked down. There was a beautiful young girl who was tied up and her mouth sealed with tape, and a girl who was also tied up. Dead young man.

"You give me peace! Otherwise, I will have to take a few knives on your pretty face!" The middle-aged man glanced at the shopping area, then lowered his head, and slapped the panicked pretty little girl on the face with the back of his knife. After a few moments, he lowered his voice and said viciously, "As long as you obediently wait for this person to leave, I will leave after taking the money. Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

The pretty little girl was full of panic and fear. An ordinary girl with a gentle personality like her had never encountered such a situation before, and her brain went blank.

Just now when Mo Fan knocked on the door and said that he was a policeman, she also had the idea of ​​reminding the other party regardless of the danger, but she just said it was a joke when she came in.

This made her feel like being struck by lightning, and the courage she had worked up with great difficulty was also discouraged. She didn't dare to have the slightest thought of disobeying the middle-aged man, and just wanted to obediently wait for rescue.

After all, the one who just came in was just an ordinary person, even if she took the risk to remind her, she might not be able to defeat this tall, burly middle-aged man, and she might even lose her life for nothing.

It's better to let this middle-aged man grab the money and leave, and leave it to the police to deal with it. As long as she is fine, she will lose a job at most, which is nothing.

As for the other young man who was also tied up to death, he looked like he was in his 20s, with obvious panic and fear on his face, but his eyes flickered a little.

Mo Fan leisurely walked out of the merchandise area, with a box of toothpaste in his hand, came to the cash register, and put the toothpaste on the cash register.

The middle-aged man picked up the box of toothpaste with his left hand. He wanted to use the cash register to scan the barcode, but found that he couldn't use it at all.So I could only hold the toothpaste and look left and right in embarrassment, wanting to see if there was a price marked on it.

Mo Fan put his hands in his pockets, glanced around, and asked casually, "By the way, where is that pretty girl from before?"

"I have something to go back to my hometown. I will help her with a few days of work. I don't know how to use this money collection thing. I will charge you 35 for this box of toothpaste." The middle-aged man frowned, pretending to be relaxed and smiled.

Mo Fan nodded, gave Zhang Baibai's to the other party, and asked casually, "Why is your right hand kept down?"

"My right hand is congenitally disabled and I can't move it." The middle-aged man said anxiously.
