Chat group: people are in Zongman, doing business in all walks of life

"W-What kind of place is this?".

"As you can see, a little special shop. Pointing to the environment on both sides, Si Chen walked out from behind the counter, gestured to the hospitality area on the right, and proposed, "Why don't you sit down first, drink saliva, and let's talk slowly?"

“...... Good. "

Sitting down on the sofa opposite Si Chen, the woman's hand on her lap trembled slightly, and it seemed that she had not recovered from that startled state.

Seeing that her mood was not very stable, Si Chen shook his head and put a can of coffee in front of her: "Guest, can I ask your name first?"

"Claire, Claire Rivers. "

"Claire, ah......

."

Si Chen nodded slightly, and asked the question he had already asked once before: "Miss Claire, I see that you seemed to be very flustered when you just came in, can you ask what happened to you......?" Or suggested. "

"Of course, but ...... What is this place?".

After pulling the ring apart and taking a sip of coffee to calm down a bit, Claire looked around and asked again.

After learning of Alex and Carter's deaths, as the last survivor on Flight 180, the Grim Reaper hunts down the last person on the list.

Isn't she preparing to go to the official institution to "turn herself in", hoping to use the power of the official to build a safe house for herself that can eliminate all dangerous elements?

Why did you come here all of a sudden?

"Actually, I've already said this before, but you probably don't care about it. Si Chen spoke: "This is a shop. "

"Shops?".

Claire frowned, "Sell what?".

"It depends on what you need. "

Si Chen leaned back slightly, leaning on the cushions of the sofa: "Wealth, health, life, strength...... What do you want, and what are you willing to pay for?".

Claire: "......

".

Got it, it's the devil.

But I think that only the devil who can bring himself here without reacting to it at all has the ability to help him get out of this terrible predicament right now, right?

Thinking of this, Claire took a deep breath: "Demon... Mr. Storekeeper, would you like to hear me tell a story that might be a bit absurd?".

"Please. "

Si Chen nodded slightly.

Next, in Claire's narration, Si Chen heard a story that could probably earn about 100 million dollars at the box office worldwide when it was written as a script, and by the way, it could also make a reputation for the next few sequels.

Claire, female, 17 years old, is a student at Mount Arabian Secondary School in New York.

More than a month ago, her school and a school in France reached an agreement to send teachers and students to each other for exchange learning.

However, just before the departure of flight 180 to Paris.

A boy named Alex suddenly shouted loudly that the plane would explode and that all the passengers, including him, would be killed in ......the accident

After some fighting, five students, including Claire, and a teacher were driven off the plane by the crew.

And then the plane literally exploded.

If this is the end of the matter, then it can be said that it was a lucky escape with a bit of metaphysical elements.

However, not long ago, Claire and the others were horrified to find that it was as if a mysterious force was trying to get everything back on track

That is, to let them, the lucky ones who escaped death, return to the track of "death".

Or in the order of their deaths on Flight 180 that Alex had "seen"!

A total of seven people, including herself, survived the accident, and by the time she entered the store, six of the seven had died by various "coincidences".

"The Grim Reaper is Coming"!

In the middle of Claire's speech, Si Chen had already reacted, this is definitely the world where "there will be no death in a catastrophe, there will be a disaster".

By the way, he also remembered the identity of Claire in front of him - the heroine in the first movie.

According to the information given in the second part of the series, in the period between the first and second films, two of the surviving trio in the first part, including the protagonist Alex, died at the hands of the Grim Reaper.

After that, Claire chose to expose herself to the official and found a room where she thought she had eliminated all potential safety hazards and locked herself up.

However, less than half a year later, the plot of the second movie unfolded, and Claire left the safe house under the mouth cannon of the heroine of the second part, and died again under the arrangement of the Grim Reaper not long after.

Patiently listening to Claire finish, and only after she stopped did Si Chen shake his head in her expectant gaze.

"It's a pity, although luck can indeed be classified as a commodity in my case, but because the store has not been open for a long time, the luck you asked for can be offset by the doom hunt of the Grim Reaper...... Not yet. "

Speaking of this, Si Chen paused and continued: "It's not ......

."

"But what?".

"If you've just listened carefully to my introduction here, you should be able to see that the word 'commodity' is actually quite a broad definition for me. Si Chen said unhurriedly: "From tangible things such as gold, silver and jewelry, to things like health and life that cannot be seen or touched, but are real, as long as you think of it, it can be used as a commodity here for me." "

"So ......?".

As if thinking of something, Claire's eyes gradually brightened.

"So, that curse in your mouth is no exception. "

Si Chen confirmed her guess.

"It doesn't matter whatever, as long as you can get that thing away from me, you can do whatever you want!" Receiving Si Chen's affirmation, Claire's voice flew fast.

“......"

Is it so crisp?

Confirming that the contract had been established, or that it was a no-capital transaction that he didn't have to pay any price, Si Chen raised his hand and grabbed Claire's void.

A black gas was caught by him.

[Death's Gaze].

[Note: Grants a curse that accumulates bad luck to a single target until it is strong enough to cause the death of a normal person, and if the target survives due to his/her/its actions before death, the curse will spread to the lucky ones, until all those who escape death embrace death].

The black qi condensed in his palm into a card with a scythe skull and a god of death on the front.

Perceiving the specific information of the card, Si Chen looked at Claire with a curious face, and sent the card in front of her: "See?"

"No, no, no. "

Claire shook her head.

Just now, at the moment when the black qi was caught by Si Chen, she could feel the feeling of relief, as if the invisible boulder that had been pressing on her since the plane crash on Flight 180 had been removed.

She could guess what that black gas was, but she didn't want to be contaminated with that inexplicable thing anymore.

"Miss Claire, how about we make a deal?".

Under Claire's vigilant gaze, Si Chen put away the sealed card with "Death's Gaze" and snapped his fingers again.

Knock-

A small pile of gold bricks smashed on the coffee table between the two.

"According to what you said, you are already a third-year high school student, and with what I know about you, you should already be planning for the future at this time, right?"

Looking at Claire, whose attention had been attracted by the pile of gold bricks, Si Chen asked, "Have you ever thought about what you will do after escaping the pursuit of death?"

"Uh......

".

Claire Speaker.

Can she say that she is not the kind of social elite who has already made a life plan in high school and can realize it step by step in the following decades, and after getting off Flight 180, she only wants to live one day and earn one day?

"I don't know if you've ever thought about what you're going to do in the future, but if you don't think your future is clear, might you consider my proposal?"

Si Chen pointed to the pile of gold bricks on the coffee table: "Here are six hundred and sixty-six kilograms of gold, just think of it as if I and you used your curse to make friends." After that, every time you bring me a 'lucky one' who is targeted by death, I will buy it at the market price. "

"Market price?".

Claire blinked in confusion.

This thing already has a market price?

"Well, I'm going to make you an offer according to what the curse is worth in my eyes. Si Chen thought for a moment and gave a reference: "Lifespan, can you understand this concept? Even if a patient with terminal cancer does not die after obtaining it, before the lifespan is exhausted, for every curse, you can exchange it for sixty-six years of lifespan from me, or other equivalent things." "

Purely measured by lifespan, the amount of origin that can be recovered by a Grim Reaper's Curse is 666 years.

I work hard to help people exorcise the curse, and it shouldn't be too much to draw a 6, right?

"I understand, I'll try to find other similar 'lucky ones' when I go back. "

Claire nodded clearly, and directly agreed to Si Chen's proposal, and did not ask the meaning of how many years of lifespan the curse itself could be equated with.

For her, even if she only has a life span of six years, even six months, six weeks, or six days, let alone sixty-six years, is already a terrible thing.

As for the "lucky ones", there is ...... opinion on whether they will trade with this devilish store manager with their curse

Not to mention whether they would know the inside story of the transaction, even if they did, Claire could guess from the store manager's "deal" proposal to her that not every lucky person would be lucky enough to enter the store after escaping a death design from the Grim Reaper.

If you don't choose to trade, will you still have a curse and dance with death?

"Mr. store manager, can I ask how many kilograms of gold can be exchanged for a year's life?"

Put away the key card that according to Si Chen's introduction, has been deposited with the "travel fee" that can allow ten people to go to and from the store, and the cards that divided the 666 kilograms of gold into several small portions and sealed them. Before leaving, Claire suddenly thought of something, stopped in front of the door, and turned back to ask.

“...... I've met a guest from an interstellar civilization before, would you like to guess how much of a commodity like the Golden Planet sent me?".

Si Chen chuckled, thought about it, and replied: "Although I don't recommend you to do this, if you really want to exchange it like this, I'll give you a ton of one year's life." "
