C37 Don't come when you have nothing to do

It was ten o'clock in the morning when I woke up. My body felt weak, as if I'd run a few thousand meters of marathon.

I walked out of bed, feeling a little tired. I washed my face and washed my face before putting on my coat and walking out of the house. In the blink of an eye, it was September and the weather had started to turn cold. There was a slight chill in the air. I walked into a noodle house and asked for a bowl of noodles before sitting down.

The restaurant was cold and empty, and I remember that it was usually very hot because it had a good beef noodle taste.

"Boss, why is the business of your store so quiet?" The owner was a fifty year old man with a son. This restaurant was used for the old man to do things.

The old man placed a small plate of pickles on the table and softly said, "I don't plan to open this restaurant anymore. It will be closed by the end of next week."

While eating, I asked doubtfully, "Why? This restaurant is open well, why are you not doing it?"

The old man sat on a chair and slowly said, "My old son found me a place to live and enjoy life in a new house."

"That's a good thing, but what about this store?"

"I've already thought about it. This place is not a good place to be. It will not be viable if you don't want to open a store for a few years." The old man was right. There were ordinary residential buildings nearby, and there wasn't just this restaurant. It was also very competitive, so it would be better if there were other businesses.

The old man got up and took a bottle of beverage from the freezer. He then said with a smile, "Little Liu, I remember that you opened a shop in the city center a while ago. Why did you quit?"

"I don't like it anymore, and I don't want to earn money either. The competition is too big." What was this old man trying to do? If he had something to say, just say it.

"Oh, although this store looks big, it's very cheap. If you're interested, you can consider it. I'll just earn some money for my pension." I calculated it last night, after the old man dies, the craftsmanship of this shop will continue to be passed on. At the beginning, I decided to return the Tang Kingdom peak's shop to him because I wanted to find another way to earn money.

That was because the old tutor hadn't died then, and he was finished now. If he hadn't inherited this skill, then he would have really lost it.

"Let me think about it. I have some spare money, but not much."

The old man said softly, "This is easy. You just have to pay one hundred and twenty thousand for my shop, and it won't cost that much to decorate it. My shop was just finished renovating last year."

Two hundred thousand is not a lot, and the shops here are also very expensive. I can calculate how much it would take to open a paper shop to sell the items of the dead.

"Old Master, it's settled then. I'll go get the money in two days. We'll hand over the money to you and hand over the house."

When the old man heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Then it's settled. I'll find someone to sell you the tables and chairs here. I guarantee that you won't lose out."

After walking out of the noodle shop, I returned to my home. As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I saw Chu Lingyun and Fang Ya walking over. I suddenly thought of something. Last time, I saw a black fog between the two sisters' brows. I took a closer look and saw that the black fog was still there.

However, this matter had been delayed because of Han Mengchen. It had also been almost a month, yet the black aura on the two sisters didn't affect them at all.

This was strange, could it be that these two sisters had something to ward off evil spirits?

"Big Brother Liu, what happened to you?"

I came back to my senses and softly said, "It's nothing. Where are you two going?"

Fang Ya softly said, "We're going to the hospital to see our classmates. If there's nothing else, we'll be leaving first."

The two sisters went into the elevator and down the stairs. I opened the door and went home. My words last night had angered Tang Yufeng. Otherwise, she would have been called out to chat with me.

I sat down on the sofa and took out the token. After looking at it for a long time, I realized that there was nothing special about it. The two of them were determined to get it.

"Ding dong …" "Ding dong!" When the doorbell rang, I got up and went to the door and opened it. Guan Rou was wearing a police uniform as she stood outside the door with one or two boxes of food in her hands. "Why didn't you invite me in?"

"Why are you here?" It must have been bad for her to have come here. She even bought a box of food for me because she had nothing better to do, so she definitely had no good intentions.

"I bought some chicken leg rice, hurry up and eat while it's still hot." Guan Rou placed the box lunch on the table and poured a cup of water. "Where have you been these past few days? Why didn't you come back to find me?"

I closed the door and softly said, "There are some matters at home. How can I find you without a phone?"

"Can't you buy one without a cell phone?"

"I don't know where you can sell it, and I won't buy it either. If you have time, why don't you accompany me?" I should get a phone, it's really not convenient to look for someone if there's anything to do.

"Then I'll take you to buy it after dinner." Guan Rou sat down on a chair and handed me the box lunch. "Hurry up and eat …" The food has turned cold. "

I curled my lips and said softly, "I've just finished eating. Just leave my stomach alone for now."

"That... Did you get a job? "

I whispered, "Nothing happened yet?"

"I have a friend," Guan Rou said softly. "Would you like to take a look at his company's recruitment?"

I took a sip of water and said with a smile, "If you have something to say, just say it. Is there another case?"

"No, there's no case." Guan Rou lowered her head as she ate her chicken drumstick. When I saw the panic in her eyes, I knew there must be something going on.

"If you don't want to say it, then forget it. I'm going to reopen the shop. Just let your friend look for someone else!"

Guan Rou took a sip of water and said with a mischievous smile, "Actually, this matter is nothing to you."

I stretched out my hand to grab the smoke bag on the incense table and lit it. "Are you going to stop talking, buy me food, and find me a job? What are you doing with all this nonsense?"

Guan Rou said in a soft voice, "I've met with some trouble. Are you going to help me or not?"

"I won't help, I definitely won't help!" I took a drag of my cigarette and almost choked myself to death. "What is this old man smoking about? Is he smoking so fiercely?"

"Oh right, I have something for you." Guan Rou took out an envelope from her pocket and handed it over to me. I took it out and opened it. Inside was a stack of red notes, about several thousand yuan in value.

"What do you mean, pay me?"

"It was the hard work you paid for me last time, and of that 2000, Meng Chen told me to give it to you. Thank you for your help."

I smiled and said, "Why are you being so courteous? It's all because of our relationship."

Guan Rou coldly said, "Then why don't you give it to me? I will accept it."

"Forget it, I'll just reluctantly accept it." I put the money in my pocket and asked, "How is Han Mengchen recently?"

"Look at you, Meng Chen went away to study, it will be a while before he comes back, you won't be able to see him." I didn't say I wanted to see her, why is this woman … I'm speechless!

Guan Rou's face slightly changed as she said, "A straightforward answer. Are you going to help or not?"

"Give me more money, and I'll think about it."

"Three thousand …"

"Five thousand …"

"Four thousand …" And a meal. "

"Deal!" In this world, there was no such thing as free labour. Even in ancient times, there had never been such a rule.

I changed my clothes and put the magic tools into my backpack. I followed Guan Rou out of the house. With these few treasures, I had some confidence.

"The situation is like this, we'll talk as we walk." Guan Rou opened the car door. I jumped in and the car started slowly.

"A week ago, our police received a call from the police every night at a crossroads west of the city center. Some people said they got a ghost car."

"And the night shift driver is the same. If we pull ghost guests like this so often, the money we receive will also be underworld money."

"Will there be a prank?"

"At first I thought so too, but then we investigated the surveillance footage in the taxi and discovered something strange, so we wanted you to come with us. If it was a ghost, you can help me, and if it was a prank, we'll deal with it."
