I can equip strange items

Chapter 2 Little Red Shoe Pendant

It was almost midnight, and there were very few people left in the night market.

But there were quite a few people setting up stalls.

Li Yuan sensed something unusual about the stalls; they were selling a lot of secondhand goods, and the items were quite varied.

However, only three items truly resonated with him.

A porcelain piece shaped like a teacup, a jade pendant, and a pair of small red shoe pendants.

These three items all look very old; they must be antiques.

Li Yuan picked up the teacup, but found that there was no response; his equipment slots seemed to be malfunctioning.

"Strange, I can clearly sense that something is wrong with this teacup."

Suspicious, he put down his teacup and picked up the jade pendant again.

The result was the same; my cheat program didn't react at all.

"Could I be wrong? The objects that trigger my senses aren't necessarily tainted by some strange power?"

Or perhaps... the level is not up to standard?

Li Yuan calmly put down the jade pendant and picked up the pair of little red shoe pendants.

Finally, the panel responded.

[Equipable item detected: Little Red Shoe Pendant]

[Little Red Shoe Pendant: An item imbued with strange power. When hung on a mobile phone, the wearer's perception of what's ahead is slightly enhanced when walking while looking down at their phone. However, with prolonged use, the wearer will hear non-existent footsteps.]

[Equipable Affix: Silent Footsteps (Gray)]

[Effect: Footsteps become softer.]

[Currently unequippable: This item does not belong to the user, the permanent conditions for its activation cannot be seen, and it cannot be equipped.]

[Friendly Reminder: Only items that are conceptually yours can be equipped. Methods for acquiring these items include, but are not limited to, buying, stealing, robbing, and finding.]

"Does it have to be something that conceptually belongs to me before I can equip it?"

Li Yuan's eyes flickered slightly.

Although this entry overlaps somewhat with the entry for "Escape Expert," it is still a special item, so he still wants to get his hands on it.

In particular, he wanted to see the conditions for permanent curing.

If the conditions for solidification are simple, the first equipment slot might be unlocked directly.

Thinking of this, he casually looked at the stall owner and asked, "Sir, how much is this?"

"One hundred yuan," the shopkeeper said with a smile.

"One hundred? Boss, are you serious?"

Li Yuan was speechless: "This kind of phone charm, especially an old one, is too expensive even for ten yuan."

"That nine dollars, I can't accept less than that. I have to make some profit."

The shop owner changed his tune without hesitation: "You can scan the code."

Damn, the price has been reduced tenfold!

However, this time Li Chen didn't say anything more and directly took out his phone to scan the QR code to pay.

He still had over a thousand yuan on him, so he could afford to pay ten yuan.

Soon, the payment was successful, and the complete information about the little red shoe pendant appeared.

[Permanent fixation condition: Walking 1,000 meters in one go while wearing high heels.]

"High heel?"

Li Yuan was speechless. Why would a grown man like himself have to walk in high heels?

That's outrageous!

However, compared to the permanent conditions for the "Escape Expert" entry, this seems quite normal.

He put the pendant away and picked up the jade pendant again, only to find that the panel still did not respond.

"It seems the level is indeed too low, or it simply lacks special effects, or even... it has no affixes."

Li Yuan guessed that only items with specific entries could be seen by him.

"This jade pendant is genuine and costs one hundred yuan, no bargaining," the shopkeeper said.

"Too expensive."

Li Yuan put down the jade pendant and then picked up the things that did not trigger any response from him.

Unsurprisingly, these things also failed to elicit a response from the panel.

He then got up and left, casually going to a secluded spot where he took out the fruit knife.

Perhaps due to the lingering effects of the alcohol, his legs went slightly weak the moment he took out the fruit knife, but he did not fall.

Without pausing, he put the little red shoe pendant into his equipment slot and then took two steps.

As a result, the sound of my footsteps did decrease, but the effect was not even as good as the effect provided by the "Escape Expert" entry.

Rubbish!

Li Yuan was secretly disappointed.

It can only be said that the gray-level attribute limits the upper limit of its effect.

However, it is a special item after all, and maybe it can be resold to someone who needs it someday.

It will be more than ten yuan by then, and I'm really short of money because I can barely afford to eat.

Li Yuan took out the little red shoe pendant, re-equipped the fruit knife, and continued strolling through the night market.

As he walked, he sensed and searched for unusual items.

"Only special items with special effects can be equipped..."

We are probably still in the early stages of this cataclysmic change, there aren't many strange items, and ordinary people might not recognize their value.

I can take this opportunity to loot some special items.

Even if you don't need it yourself, you can resell it for money.

Just then, a man and a woman dressed in black trench coats walked towards them.

Li Yuan felt a chill run down his spine, because he could also sense abnormal fluctuations from these two people.

"These two have something special on them!"

He instantly understood.

Considering their attire... he couldn't help but wonder if they were official members?

After all, it's not even winter yet, who would wear a trench coat?

Soon, the two passed each other, seemingly unaware of his presence.

Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed that the two of them had no reaction to the special item.

He continued forward without making a sound, his eyes constantly scanning the stalls on both sides.

Behind them, the woman in the black trench coat turned back and glanced at Li Yuan suspiciously: "That man's gaze towards us was a bit strange. Should we investigate?"

"Aren't you overthinking it? With our outfits, it's normal for us to get a lot of attention, isn't it?"

The man complained, "I don't know what the higher-ups were thinking, making black trench coats as uniforms. I feel awkward walking down the street. Besides, that person probably knew we existed, since there are already people with special abilities appearing in the civilian population."

"I hope I'm just overthinking it, or if it's just a gut feeling..."

When the woman noticed that the others were also looking at them with strange eyes, she immediately suppressed her suspicions.

Li Yuan had no idea that he almost got into trouble just because he glanced at the two men in black trench coats.

By this time, he was almost out of the night market.

There are still street stalls here, but there are far fewer of them, and the stalls are spaced far apart.

Suddenly, that feeling returned.

He looked up and discovered that what had triggered his connection was a dog.

A pet dog tied to a street vendor's stool.

"Are dogs special items? Or is it the leash? Or the dog tag around its neck that's triggering my senses?"

Li Yuan walked towards that direction without making a sound.

"What's on your mind, young man? Pick whatever you like, everything here is very cheap," the middle-aged male shopkeeper in his fifties said with a smile.

Because this place is so remote, it takes a long time for a guest to arrive, so he was very hospitable.

"Let me take a look first."

Li Yuan pretended to look at the items on the stall, and finally spent ten yuan to buy a wooden bracelet.

After paying, he looked at the pet dog again: "Boss, is this your dog?"

"My daughter is raising it. But my daughter is currently in postpartum confinement and it's inconvenient for her to take care of it, so she asked me to take care of it for a while."

Because Li Yuan bought something here, the shopkeeper became even more enthusiastic: "It's called Little Flower."

"A very beautiful dog."

Li Yuan asked, "Can I touch it? It won't bite, will it?"

"It won't bite, it's very well-behaved." The boss smiled and rubbed the white dog's head, subtly pinching the dog's mouth shut.

Li Yuan then reached out and touched the white dog, but did not see any information about it.

So he touched the dog leash and dog tag again.

However, there was still no response.

Is it because living creatures can't equip it? Or is it because the level is too low to have any special effects?

Feeling regretful, Li Yuan chatted with the boss for a few more minutes before leaving.

Just when I was about to leave the night market completely, I suddenly felt something again.

This street stall was a bit strange; it was almost entirely filled with junk.

For example, worn-out shoes, worn-out stools, worn-out spatulas, etc.

However, what shocked Li Yuan was that he could sense everything on the stall.

"Has a large shipment been shipped?"

He walked over naturally and immediately saw the sign next to the stall, which read: Special items, please do not disturb if you do not know.
