Chapter 16 Get ID: Starry Night

"call--"

Xia Mu's figure reappeared in the rusty collection room, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

He picked up the pocket watch on the table and opened the cover. The words engraved on the cover came into his eyes.

"May your time never stand still, as much as my love for you, my dear Monica"

There is no doubt that this is what the real Lawrence carved with his own hands. In the real history, he never saw his wife again and eventually died of depression.

That witchcraft circle was real, but this kind-hearted guy couldn't be cruel after all.

And this pocket watch became Lawrence's last legacy. It must be said that it was his luck that it was able to pass into the hands of a timepiece.

Now, this pocket watch is no longer a strange story, it is just an ordinary collectible with historical value.

Xia Mu played with it casually, then put it down and shouted out the door:

"It's done, come in!"

The next second...

Quack, quack, quack...

The rusty iron door was hurriedly opened, and the timepiece, which still looked like a boy, rushed in and ran straight to the table.

When he saw that the pocket watch on the table was intact, he couldn't help but relax, but then he checked it carefully.

This is an inevitable process. Xia Mu did not rush him, he just stood aside and waited quietly...

Ten minutes passed and the timepiece was finally checked. Then he carefully put away the pocket watch and looked at Xia Mu with a surprised look on his face.

"How did you do that!"

He couldn't believe it.

"I told you, this is a business secret."

Xia Mu smiled mysteriously without explaining a word.

"Well...well, what do you want? At this juncture, you don't want to forge your ID, do you?"

"Yes, I just need an ID, but I don't need you to help me forge it. I just need the original ID information."

Natsuki got straight to the point and admitted directly, without any unnecessary nonsense, that he was still in a hurry.

He spent about an hour in the secret realm of rules, which means it is now half past one in the morning.

He needed to go back as soon as possible. It would take some effort to forge the ID. He should try his best to finish it before dawn, so as to ensure everything was safe.

But he didn't rush the timepiece. He didn't want the other party to see more things, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

"..."

When Shi Ji heard this, he took a deep look at Xia Mu, and there seemed to be some hesitation in his eyes.

To be honest, this kid helped him solve such a big problem, and he could directly agree to other things, but this ID...

It is indeed a bit troublesome.

But... that's all, businessmen put integrity first, and besides, I'm just a "rat" in the lower city, so no matter what happens, things will never happen to me.

This time I should consider it as repayment of gratitude. From now on... it's best to stay away from this kid!

For a person like Clock, even if Natsuki doesn't say anything, he can make a rough judgment based on the current time point.

In his opinion, even if this kid had nothing to do with the wanted order, the fact that he could commit a crime against the odds at this time meant that he must have committed something else...

And it’s not a trivial matter!

Of course, most of the people who come to him to buy IDs are not clean. He has long been accustomed to this, so it's not a big deal.

As long as you don't spill his blood and don't implicate him, everything else will be easy to handle.

"Okay, come with me, I'll take you there to find it, you can choose for yourself...

However, you should know the rules and deal with them yourself if anything happens, otherwise you should stop hanging around here."

After a while, Clock Watch waved to Xia Mu, gesturing for him to follow, and at the same time explained the "rules" in a routine manner.

"Of course."

Xia Mu nodded, without saying anything else, and walked out directly behind the clock.

After passing through several iron doors and walking down a long and narrow corridor, the two finally entered a hidden room with two rows of cabinets, which seemed to be used to store information.

The signs of decay in this room are not serious. They should be related to the distance between the pocket watches, and they should also be deliberately arranged by the timepieces.

"That's all. They have not been registered in the database. They are men on the left and women on the right. They are all unique paper documents. You can find them yourself.

Once you find the right one, you don’t need to show it to me. Keep it well yourself. Of course, it’s limited to one copy. If you take more, I will definitely know.”

After standing at the door and explaining, the timepiece turned around and walked out of the room, closing the door at the same time. The meaning was obvious:

He didn't want to know what kind of information Xiamu took.

This can be regarded as his special preferential treatment for Xia Mu. If it were anyone else, he would only get what he gave, and he would not have the right to choose.

Of course, Xia Mu could see that the reason why Shiji did this was because he was afraid that he would be in big trouble and that he would be implicated.

But this was just right. He didn't want Sohivia's fake ID to be known to a third person, so the current situation was exactly what he wanted.

"A man is on the left and a woman is on the right..."

Standing in front of the cabinet, Xia Mu glanced briefly, then walked to the cabinet on the right.

Then he discovered that these cabinets were not only differentiated between men and women, but also each drawer was labeled with a different age, which was really considerate.

After a little hesitation, Xiamu opened the drawer labeled "17 years old". This age was just right for Sohivia.

Then he took out a pile of information and began to sift through it carefully.

Natsuki's filtering conditions are quite clear:

Gender female, age seventeen, has never received prosthetic limb transplantation or prosthetic modification, lives near Block 36, Lower Town, Chongxing City, District 5, and is an orphan.

As for data such as height, weight and even appearance, they have lost their meaning in this era when prosthetics have long been popular, and will not be recorded in the database.

With such a specific screening scope, Xia Mu found it easier and quickly eliminated most of them.

In the end, he only had one piece of information left in his hand, which was a girl named "Xingye", who met all the conditions, and coincidentally...

"Starry Night" is also Sohivia's suffix.

"Sohivia Starry Night"

That's Sohivia's full name.

In Alkaia, a witch's suffix is ​​generally not disclosed to others, unless that person is someone she trusts and is very close to her.

After carefully checking the information, Xia Mu discovered that the girl named "Xingye" died not long ago, and the reason was due to the "dust disease" that is common in Xiacheng District.

Haha, this is simply perfect!

"Dust disease"...

It can be used to explain why Sohivia is bedridden.

It’s her!

Xia Mu carefully put this information into his arms, then put the other information back, and then closed the drawer.

Clock is a man of integrity, so he must also be honest. Regarding other information, he didn't write down any of the other information and completely forgot about it.

Anyway, the timepiece is here. If you really need it again, just come to him to trade it again.

Doing business...win-win only takes a long time. If you do a one-time deal, it's easy to lose friends!

So, after cleaning up, Xia Mu left here with satisfaction and hurried back to the office under the cover of night.

As for the boy's body that Shiji now has, even though the other party asked, he could only say...
Chapter completed!
