Midnight Bookstore

Chapter 355: Happy Birthday!

Get Up in the morning, take a shower,

sit in the position you are most familiar with, where you can bask in the Sun.

The fragrant coffee,

the ironed newspaper,

even the specially arranged flowers on the coffee table were so tender and beautiful.

The day of salted fish,

began again!

He drank a mouthful of coffee,

shook the newspaper,

while the salted fish power in boss Zhou’s body was brewing,

lawyer an walked over.

He bent down toward Zhou Ze,

“Boss, will you accompany me to the prison to see the client?”

“Didn’t you just see it the day before yesterday?”Zhou ze said.

He had even climbed up the wall to see it the day before yesterday,

the other party should be able to feel his meticulous care for the client.

“It’s different this time. This time, it’s time to enter the next stage of the procedure. I need to listen to his requirements for my new identity, and also to help him find out where he wants to stay after he leaves. Once this step is completed, the most generous final payment will be settled.”

“Then you can go.”

The Sun had just risen,

zhou Ze was basking comfortably,

he really didn’t want to move.

“It’s better to go with me. I might need to develop a few more businesses, and I need to socialize with the people under hell. If you go with me, you can also grasp a few channels to communicate with the people under hell. In the future, when I encounter other things, it will be more convenient.”

Having said that,

zhou Ze could only helplessly close the newspaper,

he stood up,

he walked out with lawyer an.

After the car parked at the door drove away,

bai Yingying and the old priest stood at the door and craned their necks to look outside.

“Wu Wu Wu, the boss has left, hasn’t he?”

“Yes, he’s gone.”

“Then let’s start preparing. I don’t know how long an can delay it.”

“Don’t panic, there’s still time.”

“Hey, one of You Come and help me,”Xu Qinglang shouted at the staircase on the second floor.

“This penniless priest and Yingying are both busy,”the old priest said as he looked at the Little Loli who was sitting behind the bar counter, unmoving like a mountain.

The Little Loli clapped her hands,

“You guys do your thing. Don’t bring me along. I’m just a small person, so I can’t help much.”

“It’s fine. Just help me push from behind.”

Xu Qinglang pointed at the Little Loli,

“Come up. It’s useful to borrow your tongue. The egg mixer at home is broken.”

The Little Loli smacked the bar counter in dissatisfaction,

but she still walked up angrily.

… ..

When they arrived at the prison,

zhou Ze and lawyer an visited the prison together.

When the prisoner saw Zhou Ze, he immediately shivered,

he was so scared that he couldn’t control himself.

Moreover, his face was Haggard, and he looked like he was about to lose weight.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Don’t be afraid. I’ve already bribed him. He’s now a worm in the police force.”

Lawyer an quickly comforted him.

“…”Zhou Ze.

“I still think that the umbrella sounds better.”

Zhou Ze couldn’t help but remind him.

The prisoner shook his head, held the microphone, and said, “It’s not that. You’ve already told me about this Lord’s matter last time.”

“Then how did you end up like this? Why are you torturing people so much in prison?”

Lawyer an still felt a little guilty,

after all, the other party’s identity as a “Rapist”was arranged by him. The purpose was to temper the other party’s temper, but why did it seem like there was too much friction between them.

The prisoner shook his head again and said, “A person just died in our ship. He’s the guy who slept across from me.”

Lawyer an glared at him and immediately questioned, “You killed him?”

He had finally exploded from being bullied,

he had started to resist?

Then this mission would have been aborted.

“If it wasn’t me, how could it be me? If I killed someone now, wouldn’t it mean that all my previous suffering would have been in vain?”The prisoner also shouted excitedly.

“That was natural death?”Lawyer an asked.

“Sort of… sort of.”

“What do you mean sort of?”

“He died while he was sleeping. I was meditating at that time.”The prisoner recalled the scene of that night and described, “Because my meditation was not very effective, if there was a slightly louder sound next to me, my meditative state would be interrupted.

That night..,

i remember that guy suddenly started talking in his sleep,

he seemed to be shouting, ‘Don’t chase me, Don’t Chase Me…’

Then he stopped shouting.

When everyone went out for exercise the next morning, they found that he had not woken up to wash up. When our captain went to call him, we found that he was already curled up there. He was not even breathing.”

“He had heart disease or some other genetic disease.”Zhou Ze was also listening through the microphone.

“What’s The Big Deal? It’s normal for people to die in crowded places like schools and prisons.”

“But I have a bad feeling,”the prisoner said worriedly.

“You’ve already died once. Are You Afraid of dying again?”

“I think I heard about it a while ago. In another number, someone died while sleeping. It’s said that they had a heart disease, but who knows?”

“You don’t sleep anyway. Alright, come sign this letter of intent. Call me with the next payment first so that I can arrange the work for you.

“In the future, I’ll try to reduce your sentence. In short, you don’t have to stay here for long.”

“I hope it’ll be as soon as possible.”

“I hope it’ll be as soon as possible too.”

After the conversation ended, Zhou Ze and lawyer an went to the smoking area to smoke.

“What do you think?”Zhou ze asked.

“What do you think?”An took out a large stack of ghost notes from his wallet. This was the last payment he had just given. “I’ll hand this over to your public account after I go back to the bookstore?”

Zhou ze nodded.

The Smoking Room was bustling with people,

if the two men stood there and divided the ghost notes, others might think that they were idiots.

“Oh, you were talking about the dead man in your dream?”Lawyer an laughed. “How can there be so many things happening in this lousy prison?”

As he spoke, lawyer an was stunned. Eh, what had happened in the past?

“Not necessarily. After all, he is an evil spirit. Perhaps his perception is much stronger than that of an ordinary person.”

“Killing people in Your Dreams?”

Lawyer an waved his arms exaggeratedly and laughed:

“Ho, I’m the Dream Demon Freddy!

“Don’t sleep, because in your dreams, it’s my home ground. I’m going to kill all of you, in your dreams!”

After the performance, lawyer an covered his stomach and continued to laugh,

“Hahaha, you’ve watched too much of ‘Fierce Ghost Street’.”

Zhou ze shrugged. There was one thing lawyer an was right about — how could there be so much trouble in this small prison?

The matter with the pen had already been resolved. Even if he wanted to cause trouble, he would have to find another place.

The two left the prison. Lawyer an said that he wanted to go to the seaside to buy some seafood, but he actually drove Zhou ze directly to Rugao.

Tongcheng was located at the mouth of the Yangtze River and was also close to the sea, so the aquatic resources were abundant. Moreover, the price was cheaper than in the inland areas, and it was also fresher.

Lawyer an selected a lot of things and put them in the trunk. Then, he drove Zhou Ze back.

After all this trouble..,

when he returned to the bookstore, it was already six o’clock in the evening.

Zhou Ze was a little sad,

he had actually wasted his leisurely day like this.

He got out of the car,

zhou Ze found that the bookstore had not opened yet, but it was already night time, and even the lights were not turned on.

He pushed the door open,

he walked in.

“Yingying? Old Taoist?”

Zhou ze called out a few times, but no one answered.

When he took a few more steps in..,

suddenly..,

all the lights were turned on,

the room was decorated with colorful lights and hung with many ribbons and balloons. The little monkey moved quickly on the ceiling and pulled open a ribbon.

For a moment..,

the sphere above was opened,

it was filled with red renminbi, and all of it fell down,

under the illumination of the lights..,

the banknotes flew in the air, carrying an alluring fragrance.

“Boss! Happy Birthday! ! !”

The old priest, Bai Yingying, and the Little Loli stood up from behind the bar counter and shouted loudly.

“Happy Birthday.”

Lawyer an, who was the last to enter, leaned against the door frame and clapped. He had only been in the study room for a short time and did not have much feelings for Zhou Ze. However, since he had been asked to give Zhou Ze a surprise for his birthday, he naturally had no reason to refuse. Therefore.., his task today was to take Zhou Ze out and spend the day so that the others in the study would have a chance to prepare.

However..,

the RMB that was being sprinkled down..,

was really tacky.

Lawyer an thought to himself..,

who would like such a tacky scene,

then..,

he was stunned..,

because he saw his boss with his eyes closed..,

enjoying the feeling of being wrapped in RMB..,

intoxicated by it,

unable to extricate himself.

Okay,

he took back what he had just said.

“Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you…”

In the distance,

xu Qinglang walked out with a cake cart,

this was the big birthday cake he personally made today,

but there was only one candle on it.

“Today is my birthday?”

Zhou ze pointed at himself and asked.

He didn’t even know which day his birthday was.

In the past, when they were in the orphanage, everyone celebrated their birthdays together on children’s Day.

Because the principal wanted to save money, according to the rules, they had to hold activities and take photos on children’s Day, so they decided to celebrate children’s Day together.

After leaving the orphanage, Zhou Ze didn’t celebrate his birthday anymore.

“Boss, last year on this day, you were reborn. Today is exactly one year.”

Bai Yingying explained.

Oh,

did It count like that?

Thinking about it..,

it seemed to be not bad.

Birthday, that was indeed what it meant.

The celebration lasted until late at night. Fortunately, there were no guests tonight, so everyone could have a good time.

After midnight, everyone went upstairs to rest.

Lying on the bed..,

bai Yingying obediently leaned against Zhou Ze’s side,

zhou ze stretched out his hand and placed it by the bed,

bai Yingying understood,

she lay on Zhou Ze’s arm and let him hold her.

“Your Idea?”

“Yes.”

“Thank you.”

“Boss, I’m the one who should be thanking you.”

“Why?”

You waited on me every day, served me, helped me take a bath, and slept with me. In the end, you still have to thank me?

“200 years.”Bai Yingying raised her finger and made a “Two”sign. “Yingying has been lying in a coffin for 200 years. It’s really very, very boring.”.

When an animal comes out of the egg shell, it instinctively feels familiar with the first creature it sees.

But for others..,

after coming out of the coffin..,

the first living person it sees when it wakes up..,

is You, Boss.”

Outside the door..,

the Little Loli, who had just showered and was about to go in to sleep, was not in a hurry to go in,

since that silly zombie had been busy for so long and had organized a birthday party for the boss..,

there was no need for her to go in so early and interrupt the boss’s finishing work.

However..,

listening to Bai Yingying’s sweet words,

a meaningful smile appeared on the Little Loli’s lips.

She thought to herself:

It wasn’t just because the first person she saw when she woke up was Zhou Ze,

it was also because of Zhou Ze’s fingernails and the high-level zombie aura on his body,

the crushing charm of the same bloodline and the first living person she saw in 200 years of loneliness..,

when the two effects are combined,

tSK TSK..

It’s enough to make people cry out “Daddy”with tears in their eyes!
