Chapter 27 - The Barbershop 1.1

I read somewhere on the Internet that a picture can express a thousand feelings, and I believe this is true. Sometimes a photo can bring back many memories. Those locked memories can suddenly came back with just one glanced at the pictures.

Since my mother passed away, I have never dreamed of her again. I have learned from many mediums that I have talked to, those people you have never dreamed of since their death, it mean they are long gone, their soul have left this world. They no longer have any worries.

I ignore Xiao Lan and foxy Yaya, I turned the corner and continued to browse the art gallery. The painting art gallery is much better than the pottery art gallery. I don't understand art, but I like beautiful paintings.

The lady tour guide showed a group of six people painting after painting, and every painting hanging here has a history. I looked at her name tag and it wrote Su Ling.

Su Ling said, "This painting is called the 'Barbershop'. This is the last painting of the Chernoff family. The reason why this painting is so famous is that it has a history. People think this painting was hunted by Igor Chernoff, the owner of the barbershop." The six people gasped.

A lady asked, "How is this painting hunted?"

Su Ling said a in low pitch voice, "Whoever own this painting will end up dead."

I asked, "How much is the painting?"

Su Ling said, "There is currently no price."

I asked, "So you mean it's free."

Su Ling said, "It's a priceless treasure."

I asked, "Since it's priceless treasure than how could Yaya afford this?"

Su Ling, "Master Tang, doesn't own this painting."

When Su Ling moved the six people to the next painting, I looked at the painting in the barbershop. This picture is a decent family. The father and mother were sitting on the front chairs, and the two children, a teenage boy and a teenage girl, stood behind them.

When I observed the painting carefully, I saw tears dripping from the left eye of the father, Igor Chernoff. I reached out to touch the painting, but a voice stopped me. I turned to the right and I saw a young man in his twenties.

The young man asked, "Feeling sorry for him?"

I said, "Yes, his entire family is dead."

The young man said, "Feeling sorry for him may get you kill."

I looked at the young man and sound as manly as I can be, "Yeah, many people threatened me, but hey, I'm still alive and still walking."

The young man reached out and took my left hand. Then my eyesight began to change.

Fen walked into her house, she took off her shoes and dropped her business bag on the floor. She put on her slippers and took off her coat. She shouted, "Honey, I'm home."

She picked up her bag and continued into the small living room. She put her bag on the sofa and walked into the kitchen. She saw her husband facing the refrigerator. She looked at the floor and noticed that the milk had spilled.

Because of the mess in the kitchen, Fen was very angry at her husband. She frowned and said, "I'm tired of you. I want to come home to a clean house, but I have to come to this shit every day."

Fen approached her husband. She walked up from the kitchen island and saw her two children lying in a pool of blood. Fen looked at her husband, who was holding an old straight razor in his hand.

Fen's husband turned around, with a smirk on his face. He said, "Have an affair with the boss?"

Fen said, "How do you know?"

Fen's husband said, "I saw you a few days ago..."

Fen said, "Where were you hiding?"

Fen's husband said, "I watched you fuck him on the sofa." He approached her and chased her into the living room. He pressed her under him and started to hit her. Five minutes after beating Fen, he pulled her hair back and cut her throat with a straight razor.

I shook my head because what just happened felt so real. Then I saw a hand waving at me with a straight razor. I quickly arched back to avoid the blade. So, I decided to kick this young man. My foot made the young man crush to the ground. My many years of learning Kung Fu finally payoff.

I mumbled to myself, "My fighting skill is good when fighting others, but for some unknown reason, when fighting Xiao Lan, How come I always lose?"

I smirked at the young man and said, "Little boy, know when and who to pick your fight?"

The young man quickly got up and ran to the pottery area. I followed him closely.

I saw that the youth had already approached a small group of people, and went straight to Xiao Lan and foxy Yaya. I shouted, "Xiao Lan, the guy has a switch blade."

The young man stabbed one of the women with a straight razor, and Xiao Lan quickly grabbed his hand and twisted it to the left. Xiao Lan then kicked the young man hard, and the young man crashed into the Persian man's tooth showcase. The glass broke and I saw the box rolling on the floor, his poor tooth rolling on the floor into panic shoes. I quickly reached out and grabbed his tooth, and then a sharp heel stepped on my poor left hand. When I pulled away from the heel, the heel pushed the tooth out of my reach.

I crawled on the ground and chased after the fallen tooth. I scanned the area with my laser eyes, searching for the missing tooth, and then suddenly a hand grabbed my back collar and pulled me up.

Xiao Lan asked, "What are you doing on the ground like this?"

I said, "I'm looking for a missing tooth."

Xiao Lan turned my faced around stick his finger inside my mouth and began to feel for my teeth, "Which tooth is broken?"

I quickly shook his hand away. I said, "It's not mine. It's the Persian man's tooth."

At this time, the security guards rushed in with taser guns and pointed at the young man. A guard shouted, "Put down the razor."

The young man smiled and began to slice his left forearm.

The guard shouted again, "Put down the blade."

Xiao Lan dragged me behind some people, and we walked around a big fish tank. My eyes looked at the man with the straight blade, "What the hell are you doing? Hiding behind this fish tank can't save us." I looked at the young man, who shows no sigh to indicate that he is going to stop. "Xiao Lan..." I turned around, Xiao Lan was gone. I saw a blue wolf with sapphire eyes looking directly at the young man.

Xiao Lan, "Don't let the Taser sting me."

Xiao Lan slowly crouches down low onto the floor like a wolf who is stalking his prey. Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lan rushed forward and grabbed the man's right hand. Xiao Lan directly threw the man's body back. The surrounding guards jumped in and pressed the young man to the floor.

A guard shouted, "Take away the blade from his hand."

Another guard said, "No blade."

The young man was angry and roared, "What the hell are you doing pressing me on the ground? I am going to sue your ass."

One of the guards handcuffed the young man and escorted him out the door. The other three guards rubbed Xiao Lan's head and patted Xiao Lan. "Good boy..."

To be honest, wolf form or human form, I still don't like when others touch Xiao Lan. I mean, when a grown man is patted like this, I feel disgusted. Xiao Lan walked to me and stood beside me.

One of the guard said, "Your dog is well trained."

I replied, "He is a service dog."

Foxy Yaya said, "Everyone please don't mind the crazy man. Please continue to tour our art works." He walked up to me, he looked at me and Xiao Lan. "Where is Xiao Lan?"

I replied, "You are looking at him."

Foxy Yaya, "You fell to the ground, and he kindly came to save you. You are so inconsiderate." He walked away with his sexy hairless legs.

I looked at Xiao Lan and said, "Come with me. I think the father in the painting cried before the incident."

Xiao Lan and I walked to the art gallery and returned to the painting "Barbershop", everything returned to normal. I looked carefully into Igor Chernoff's eyes, and there were no tears.

I frowned and sighed, "Sometimes dampness can give people an illusion."

Xiao Lan said, "Sometime moist could cause an illusion."

I looked at him madly, "Now you decided to be a man."

Xiao Lan said, "I can transform into whatever I want, but I prefer my real body because I can attack at will."

I smiled and said, "Can you transform in to David Beckham?"

Xiao Lan quickly replied, "No."

I asked, "Why not?"

Xiao Lan said, "Whoever you don't like. I will transform to be that person."

I walked away and said, "If you can't walk the walk then don't do the talk." I stopped because I realized that there is something odd about this painting and the painting Su Ling shown us. I turned and walked back to the painting.

Xiao Lan asked, "What's wrong?"

I said, "Xiao Lan..." I pointed to the straight blade on the table. "When the lady tour guide showed us this painting, there is no blade on the table."

Xiao Lan said, "Are you sure?"

I replied, "I might have missed it the first time, but I remember that the straight blade was not there."

Xiao Lan said, "You are wronged about the tears, could you be wrong?"

I shrugged my shoulders and said, "I could have." I reached into my pocket and started walking towards the front door. "I'm hungry. Do you want steak?"

Xiao Lan put his arm around my shoulders. He smiled and said, "Our date beat everyone else."

I asked, "How so?"

Xiao Lan said, "Because we are the only couples who went on a life-threatening date." Xiao Lan opened his right hand and a tooth is inside his palm. "Happy first date."

I took the handkerchief and grabbed the yellow and brown tooth in Xiao Lan's palm. I put my handkerchief into my left pocket. I looked at Xiao Lan and said, "It's best to wash your hands when you get in the car. Who knows, what kind of bacteria is on this century-old tooth?"
