Please remember our website address and wish you all a happy reading! Don’t forget to spread the word.
According to Jianghai Evening News (a local newspaper in Tongcheng), seven people died in the fire in the cinema and more than 30 people suffered varying degrees of injuries.
A week has passed, and the cinema has been closed. It is impossible to reopen it in a short time. It is even possible that this cinema will be abandoned. It was a loss if it was originally opened here, and it will naturally not reopen with much fanfare.
In this way, this business group is basically declared dead.
During this time, Zhou Ze did not contact Dr. Lin again. Both parties maintained a tacit understanding of non-interference and lived their own lives. However, his father-in-law and mother-in-law called several times and asked Zhou Ze why he didn't go home. So much so.
Zhou Ze later simply blocked their phone numbers.
What's very troublesome now is that the money to open this bookstore came from his father-in-law's family. He can take advantage of other people's soft words, but Zhou Ze still hasn't figured out how to make some money so that he can reopen a store and carry out the real meaning of it. independence.
It can only be said that the fundamentals Xu Le left for himself were too bad.
However, several media outlets contacted him, hoping to interview Zhou Ze for his courageous act of justice and promote the positive energy of the new era, but Zhou Ze chose to refuse them all.
He has no interest in making this name. As the saying goes, a big tree attracts wind. If his identity and role make him a celebrity, there will be more uncontrollable dangers.
This week, the business was mediocre, with daily sales of less than one hundred, and the cost of rent, water and electricity bills was not enough. Zhou Ze didn't care much about this.
What he cares about is that Xu Qinglang, who is next door, has not opened the door for a week.
Zhou Ze asked an unscrupulous locksmith to help open the lock. He went in and searched, but couldn't find anything like sour plum juice. The kitchen in the back room was kept clean and tidy.
Very helpless,
A man who owns more than 20 apartments and is very good-looking,
If one day he suddenly sees through the world of mortals and plans to pursue a romantic life,
It's really hard to find him.
Because of this, Zhou Ze had a hard time this week.
Chili oil,
Old vinegar,
Old soy sauce,
I have tried high-concentration orange juice and other methods. Although it can help me eat some food, it has made me miserable. It is far less effective than the sour plum juice passed down by Xu Qinglang's family.
At night, Zhou Ze squatted alone at the door of the bookstore, holding a cigarette in his mouth and glancing at the next door from time to time, giving him a feeling of desolation in his life.
On the side of the road in front of the store, there are four or five pagoda incense burning. They were made by people from the mall. According to the custom, today is the time to welcome the God of Wealth. Even though we know that it will be difficult for the God of Wealth to save this mall, it is the way to do it. Still have to do.
What if a miracle happens?
Occasionally Zhou Ze would look behind him or at the glass in front of him.
The man in the black suit is constantly improving his skills. Tonight is his first seven, so he should be almost there.
The possibility of a vicious ghost transforming into another form is extremely small. Furthermore, an ordinary vicious ghost can at most make you stumble while walking or bite your tongue when eating. It can even make you suffer from a minor illness and hang up for two days. What a terrible trick.
Things like the kind of evil ghosts in movies running amok and killing people everywhere are impossible to happen in reality, otherwise this world would have been in chaos long ago.
Even Zhou Ze, who has been resurrected from a dead body, has kept such a low profile.
Those scumbags who don't even have a physical body dare to come out and show off?
This week, when Zhou Ze had nothing to do, he read a book, dazed, trimmed his nails, and took a look to see if the fierce ghost behind him became clearer again.
There is quite a... nurturing feeling, and I experience a father's love like a mountain.
Dad loves you,
Dad is waiting for you to grow up.
Zhou Ze could clearly feel the emotions of the man behind him. His greatest hatred was not directed at the cause of the fire, but at himself. He was resentful, angry, expecting, and waiting.
perhaps,
In his opinion, tonight, his first seven days, is his moment of revenge.
Because of missing Si Ting,
Zhou Ze shook off the ashes and waited until it took shape. Zhou Ze would tell him why the flowers were so red.
Zhou Ze didn't think he did anything wrong in rescuing people, nor did he think there was anything wrong in the man in the suit hating him.
Zhou Ze had encountered a similar incident before. A person was drowning, and someone went to save him. As a result, the rescuer was tightly held by the drowning person, and then they drowned together.
Generally speaking, when you go into the water to save someone, you have to hold him from behind to rescue him. If you go up from the front to save someone, it is easy for the drowning person to grasp him tightly as the last straw.
Of course, I can understand it,
But understanding will not be the reason for Zhou Ze to allow the man in the suit to be reckless in his bookstore at twelve o'clock tonight.
During the day, Zhou Ze ordered a takeaway and chatted with the new takeaway boy. He learned that the takeaway boy who saved people last time has become popular recently. Not only did he attend various award-receiving events, he was also criticized by the company's internal staff. As a reward for praise, he now has a nickname - "The Most Handsome Delivery Boy". Now he is still delivering food, live broadcasting and delivering food at the same time, and he is very popular.
Zhou Ze, who was filling his mouth with vinegar while eating, casually scrolled through Weibo and found the takeaway boy in the hot search column.
Things happened till now
In one week, from the initial processing and summary to the current development and promotion of positive energy, it was at the time when the topic was the hottest and highest. The influence of this matter was not only spread in Tongcheng, but also throughout the country. opened.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Zhou Ze watched a movie while watching the man in a suit slowly become more solid. The movie was called "The Devil". It was a work of the recently famous director Lin Chaoxian a few years ago, starring Daniel Wu and Nick Cheung. .
The door of the bookstore was pushed open, and a delivery boy wearing delivery clothes walked in while holding a selfie stick.
"This is a bookstore that I often come to. I come to this store to read books every day after delivering takeaways. It's not for any knowledge, I just like to read books."
After saying that, the delivery boy took down a copy of "Eight Crisis" by Wen Tiejun from the bookshelf.
This book talks about the economic crises in modern China. The delivery boy spread out the book, sat on the plastic bench, and read it with gusto.
Zhou Ze remembered that he watched two parts of "Fights Break the Sphere" the last time he came here.
"Okay, that's it for today's live broadcast. I want to read quietly for a while. Let's go to bed early. Thank you for your company throughout the day." The delivery boy bowed to the phone screen.
A bunch of cards, airplanes and rockets appeared on the mobile phone screen. The popularity was indeed terrifyingly high.
After turning off his mobile phone, the delivery boy closed the copy of "8 Crisis" in his hand, stretched, looked at Zhou Ze, and said:
"Boss, let's go out for a supper together. I'll treat you."
Zhou Ze shook his head and pointed at the computer screen in front of him.
"What are you watching?" The delivery boy came closer, looked at the screen and said with a smile, "I've seen this movie before, right?"
"Yeah." Zhou Ze nodded and looked at the time in the lower right corner of the screen. It was almost twelve o'clock.
The baby behind him was already a little impatient.
"No reporters are interviewing you?" the delivery boy asked.
Zhou Ze shook his head.
"Actually, you should accept the interview, so that your bookstore business will be much better."
"I like silence." Zhou Zeyan pretended to be cool.
Money is important, but life is even more important.
"Let's watch this movie later." The delivery boy seemed to be very fond of Zhou Ze. After all, he was his companion who rushed into the fire to save people.
some,
Cherish each other.
"Did you know that "Magic Police" is adapted from a real case, and the original real protagonist seems to be named Xu Bugao." Zhou Ze said.
"Hey, I really don't know about this." The delivery boy smiled shyly, "It's just a movie, who cares about this?"
"Yeah, that's right." Zhou Ze closed the computer and stretched, "It's so late, what do you want to eat?"
"Whatever."
"Then let me order takeout."
"No, go out to eat, I'll treat you. What's so good about takeout? Let me tell you, some stores have no way of looking at the kitchens. There are also some businesses that don't even have physical stores, so they just rent a shabby house and do it themselves. Tsk tsk, I don’t dare to eat it anyway.”
"I see." Zhou Ze nodded, "By the way, do you know what happened to Xu Bugao?"
"Wouldn't I know it if you told me?"
"Killed his colleagues, swallowed the money, and then started to show off. He even participated in TV shows. He liked to be in the limelight and become famous." Zhou Ze touched the tip of his nose, "A very complicated person, he really enjoys being on camera. "
The delivery boy was silent for a while and did not continue the topic. Instead, he said: "Boss, are you going to have supper?"
"I don't want to go. Why don't you look at the pagoda incense in front of my store? I've been incense for a day and my appetite has been lost."
Pagoda incense is a large incense candle that is taller than ordinary people. It is layered like a pagoda. It is very strong and can burn for a long time.
"Haha, your store has no smell at all." The delivery boy pointed to the central air conditioner above Zhou Ze Bookstore, "This should be an air purifier, right?"
"Well, it's installed together with the air conditioner, and I'm used to spraying some fresh fragrance in the bookstore. After all, it's not necessary to create a reading atmosphere. We don't provide coffee or pastries. We can only provide some good smell."
"So, boss, you still don't want to give me this face." The delivery boy pretended to be angry and said, "We have experienced life and death together."
Zhou Ze raised his hand and said curiously: "So, I have always been curious about one thing."
"What's up?"
"That day, I didn't smell anything at all. In my store, it's difficult, almost impossible, to smell other smells outside. How did you smell the fire that day?"
The delivery boy was stunned for a moment, and his face looked a little unnatural, but he didn't take it seriously and said, "I just need to make my nose smaller. My grandma said I have a dog nose. When I was a child, I would find snacks hidden at home. It was accurate." "
"Do you know what day it is today?" Zhou Ze asked again.
"What day?"
"The first seven."
"The first seven?"
"Yes, the first seven of the seven people who died in the fire!"
