Chapter 289 Opening

"There are a lot of stores here that are suddenly opening up."

…

"Is it ready for dinner?"

With Zheng Xun's mental state, even though a large number of strange-looking waiters suddenly appeared on the entire floor, he didn't feel scared.

The worst-case scenario is that they all attack him at the same time.

Zheng Xun was still standing there, muttering something in a low voice and taking a tentative half step forward.

All the waiters with their backs turned to him suddenly turned their heads ninety degrees.

They turn in different directions, some turn from the left and some turn from the right.

However, in Zheng Xun's opinion, there was no difference. These "people" all turned their faces towards him.

…

You didn't even look at him?

"It won't turn 180 degrees later."

Zheng Xun muttered and took another small step.

Take the plunge.

…

It's a pity that this time, those who turned their faces towards him did not turn around again.

Instead, he maintained the previous angle, in place, his body swaying slightly.

Looking from a distance, it looks like cattails in the wind, with many shadows.

The surrounding colors seemed to turn gray, and Zheng Xun felt as if he was in an abandoned and forgotten place.

It's not the warm color of memories, nor the brightness of reality.

"How many years ago was this place..."

Not sure if the audience in the live broadcast room would notice anything, Zheng Xun turned his hand around the screen and opened it.

Enter the live broadcast function.

…

It keeps loading and there is no signal at all.

There is no other way, now I have completely lost contact with the outside world.

Zheng Xun thought about what to do next.

First, he walked around the entire floor in the shortest possible time.

Just as he imagined. No matter where he went or in which direction, the waiters who suddenly appeared would always turn their faces towards him.

Can't see their faces clearly and can't communicate with them.

Apart from being more dilapidated, the store is not much different from before.

Could it be that you have to go in and look at each house one by one to find the subtle differences?

This workload is too much...

Zheng Xun grabbed two table legs and turned the entire square dining table over.

Well, nothing.

Beside him, the quartet is also gathering clues.

What a wonderful feeling.

Although Zheng Xun's words and actions could not be captured by them.

The time and space the five people are in may not be the same.

But at this moment, they "exist together."

Zheng Xun held up the table and stared blankly at the four people opposite who were getting along very harmoniously.

The fake Zheng Xun who replaced him blended in perfectly, talking and laughing with the others. Occasionally, when others were concentrating on searching for clues, he would suddenly stand behind them to scare people.

Zheng Xun looked at it with the corners of his mouth turning down.

Obviously in the copy, he was still laughing and joking, not serious at all...

besides.

Does he usually jump up and down like this?

Like a monkey.

…

Zheng Xun felt uncomfortable again, and the table in his hand flew out towards the back of the fake Zheng Xun who was chattering endlessly.

Bang.

Sure enough, just like the last time he hit Huo Ziyan, as long as he wanted to touch the other side, he would be blocked by an invisible barrier.

Very strange.

It was as if he was a ghost that accidentally drifted from one shore to the other.

Obviously he could still hear Xiao Huo and the others talking.

...Speaking of which, Xiao Huo and the others were standing at the cashier for quite a long time.

Zheng Xun found no useful clues for the time being, so he began to care about what was found on the other side.

What they found was a ledger.

This accounting book doesn't look very professional. It should have been jotted down by the waiter or the boss in the store. It is also incomplete and has many torn pages.

The person holding the accounting book now is Shen Guanyu, and Zheng Xun takes two steps forward.

Something strange happened.

Zheng Xun also touched the leather cover of the accounting book.

When Zheng Xun showed no intention to attack, he found that he could easily pass through the opponent's body without hitting the barrier.

Now, he and Xiao Shen were standing in the same position, facing the same cashier, their fingers resting on the accounting book.

They were reading the contents of the ledger, and so was Zheng Xun.

The notebook was only the size of a palm, and Shen Guanyu pressed it with her fingers to prevent it from accidentally closing.

He read it quietly to the person next to him.

“Accounting on the evening of January 2nd.

At 5 o'clock, Mr. Wang spent 57 yuan.

At 5:15, Ms. Zhang spent 48 yuan.

At 5:16, Ms. Huang spent 89 yuan.

…

They are just some running accounts, nothing special. "

"January 2nd, today?"

Huo Ziyan vaguely felt that there was some clue hidden in it.

"Zheng Xun" then turned around and came out.

"I didn't find anything useful, but sucked a bunch of ashes."

He wrinkled his nose and sneezed.

Meng Lian handed over a tissue, "Zheng Xun" shook his head and declined.

"It doesn't matter to me," he paused, "It's not okay to just accept girls' things."

He smiled, but Meng Lian was a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, it's just a piece of paper."

Huo Ziyan was originally checking the items on the small sofa for customers to rest next to the cashier.

Just happened to hear the conversation between Meng Lian and "Zheng Xun".

His eyebrows knitted together, and the movement of his hands also paused for a moment.

Zheng Xun... would he speak so frivolously?

Especially with girls.

Zheng Xun spoke directly to male players like them, but he was still very respectful and polite to women.

Especially the female players in the White Tower. They must be extremely outstanding and have made great efforts to stand here.

Maybe because of excessive respect, there is even a certain sense of distance.

There have been many women who have shown affection for Zheng Xun since his debut.

But he has not had any gossip so far, and treats every player in the same dungeon with him equally. Huo Ziyan sometimes thinks that in Zheng Xun's eyes, regardless of gender, it is probably a pumpkin that speaks nicely and a pumpkin that speaks rudely.

And now...

Huo Ziyan put the washed white sofa pillow in his hand back to its original place.

He pressed his eyebrows.

Maybe he hadn't rested for too long and thought too much.

Or maybe he hadn't spent enough time with Zheng Xun and hadn't gotten to know him completely.

But this sentence was like a thorn in the flesh, making Xiao Huo feel awkward and strange all the time.

No matter what he thought in his heart, he should not make it public.

Huo Ziyan was a low-key person, and he would subconsciously keep things to himself.

But Zheng Xun was not like that.

He lifted the chair next to him and threw it at the fake Zheng Xun's head.

"Beast! You flirted with a little girl in my face!

You ran away after flirting, what should I do! Hey, I have a bad temper--"

Of course, the chair didn't succeed in hitting that familiar and hateful face, and it fell to the ground with a clang, breaking its legs.

"Humph."

Zheng Xun clapped his hands, glared at him for a few times, and then continued to look back at the account book in his hand.

But Shen Guanyu had already flipped through the book and closed it.

When he stopped, Zheng Xun found that no matter what method he used, he couldn't open the account book.
