within Temptation

Chapter 2 Hiding in a Fashion Store

However, I did not escape their pursuit in the end, and now I am still surrounded by them.Although it seems that I haven't found me yet, it won't be long before the two groups of them surround me and find me. It's only a matter of time.

So what should I do now?Call the police and let the police come and rescue me?No, no, let's not say that the police can't put out the fire near the water. When they receive the call to the police, I'm afraid I'll be beaten and maimed by these hooligans long ago.Even if the police arrived in time, I would have to be taken to the police station for questioning and a statement.Maybe they will detain me for dozens of hours for fighting and making trouble in public.In this way, won't my family know that something happened to me?I made an oath to my family that I would never fight again in my life. If they knew that I had not kept my oath, how would I have the face to go back to see them?

After taking a few breaths, my breath gradually calmed down.At this moment, I began to carefully observe the terrain around me.I seldom come to this small street before, and it seems that there are no alleys in my impression that can let me escape the siege of gangsters.Diagonally across from me, there was a small store selling alcohol, tobacco, and sundries, but it was obviously unrealistic to hide there.Don't say that if I show up and go out now, the gangsters in front will find out immediately. Even if I can pass, the small shop is really small, and anyone who goes in can see where I am hiding with a glance.

I immediately turned my head to look at the side where I was hiding, oh, just in front of this car, there seems to be a well-decorated clothing store.It's so late and the store is still open.It seems that this specialty store is quite high-end.It really surprises me that such a small street can still have such a high-end clothing monopoly.

Now, though, I don't have time to wonder.When I saw a clothing store, I immediately thought, don't there usually be fitting rooms in places that sell clothes?As long as I go in and pick up a piece of clothing and hide in the fitting room, can't I avoid the search of those hooligans?

Just thinking of this, there was a sudden sound of a car engine at the entrance of the small street.I was startled right now, and immediately subconsciously turned to the other side of the car beside me, so that no one would find me squatting here.

Two seconds later, a small black car drove in.Just passing by where I was hiding, I stopped with a screeching sound.Then, the car door opened, and I heard a man's voice laughing: "How is it? I said there is a good clothing store here? Come, come, go in and have a look, choose your favorite clothes, don't tell me You are welcome!"

The back door of the car and the passenger door were both opened, and three young girls came out in one breath.They laughed one by one and said, "Mr. Wang, is it true or not? Are you really welcome?"

A middle-aged man in a well-fitting suit came out of the driver's seat. He laughed and waved his hand and said, "Just choose, I will pay the bill. It's rare to be with three beauties today. As long as you are happy, what's the point of spending money?"

So, the girls all happily walked to the clothing store next to them.While I was proudly clicking my tongue for this middle-aged man, I also had an idea and immediately walked out of my hiding place without making a sound.With the help of these three girls to block the view in front of the side street, I entered this clothing store with them.

As soon as I walked in, two sweet girls dressed as shop assistants greeted me with a smile: "Welcome to our store. Good evening, distinguished guests. Is there anything we can do for you?"

At this time, the middle-aged man also came in, smiled and said to the two female shop assistants: "Where is your female boss? Hehe, today I brought someone to take care of her business again."

When the female clerk saw the middle-aged man, she immediately smiled and said, "So it's Mr. Wang. Our boss has gone out for something. Do you need me to call her back?"

The middle-aged man waved his hand again, and said, "That's not necessary, but I brought three beauties over today, and you should serve me well."

"Of course, Mr. Wang, you are already regular customers, don't you know our service? Three beauties, please take a look. If you have any requirements, please feel free to ask."

After I entered the clothing store, taking advantage of the attention of the two female shop assistants on the three girls and the middle-aged man, I immediately came to the back of a row of clothes racks on the side.Immediately, I saw that the fitting room of this store was just a little inside from my side.Just as I was about to grab a piece of clothing and hide in the fitting room, I realized that I seemed to have miscalculated.

This clothing store turned out to be a specialty store for women's clothing, with hangers and windows full of colorful women's clothing.I'm a big man, take women's clothes into the fitting room and try them on?
Just when I was so embarrassed, someone finally noticed me.A female clerk who was at the cashier walked towards me, with a professional smile on her face, and said, "Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

I had no choice but to smile wryly, and said, "I'll take a casual look first, you don't need to greet me."

But the female salesperson seemed to be still enthusiastic, and she still said attentively: "Sir, are you with Mr. Wang? This shop specializes in women's fashion from several brands in Italy. If you are buying it for your girlfriend, let me introduce some of them." How about a piece for your reference? By the way, how tall is your girlfriend and what is her figure?"

I... I sweat!
Just when I was speechless and had nothing to say, the rumbling sound of a locomotive motor came from outside the clothing store.I quickly took a look, and sure enough, I saw that the two hooligans who blocked the side street just now had driven a motorcycle to the door of the clothing store.Moreover, at the same time, four hooligans holding steel pipes also came from the direction I just ran to. The two groups finally reunited, and as soon as they met, they stopped outside the store and started talking.

I yelled again, and quickly moved away, hiding behind a plastic model.Wishing for the best, these hooligans thought I had escaped and gave up searching.If they still don't give up and enter this store to have a look, then I really can't fly away!
The female clerk seemed to notice that something was wrong with my expression, and hurriedly came over and asked with concern: "Sir, what's the matter with you? Are you uncomfortable? Or are you not satisfied with the clothes in our shop?"
