Chapter 31 It’s me

At this time, outside the old street.

A black SUV was parked outside the old street.

Compared with ten years ago, Liu Xiaoxiao's father has a few wrinkles on his face, his eye sockets are a little deeper, there are deep nasolabial folds on his face, his gray hair is meticulously combed behind his forehead, his face is solemn, and he has an old British style.

The aura of a gentleman.

Compared to ten years ago, he has a more stable aura.

Their family actually moved away from the old street three years ago and bought a house in the city center. Except for Xiaoxiao who always came here, he actually didn't come to the old street again for several years.

When he walked into the incense shop and saw familiar things and the woman who had not changed at all from ten years ago, he could not help but for a moment couldn't tell whether it was yesterday or now.

This woman is still young, and time has not left any marks on her body.

He was still hesitant at first, but when he saw Wang Xilou like this, his worries were relieved.

After the two talked, Wang Xilou followed the hair of the black cat in his hand, thinking about something in his mind.

"Boss Liu, are you saying that your son is haunted by monsters?"

Father Liu was looking at the black cat taking a nap in Wang Xilou's arms. Hearing this, he thought for a while and nodded: "Ah Qing, he never said anything. If he hadn't gone up to where he worked with a smile, he would have known that they were there.

This happened."

"Oh? Can you believe what that girl says?"

"I didn't believe it at first. It's just that Ah Qing has been in a bad state these past few days and his complexion has become very bad. After I asked him, he said something. He said that there is often a young woman in white clothes in the funeral parlor recently.

If someone calls her, she will disappear..."

"Isn't this someone playing a prank?"

Father Liu shook his head: "I'm not sure, but because I've seen some things, I'm afraid that those things really exist..."

"oh?"

What has he seen?

Wang Xilou didn't ask, just smiled lightly, she couldn't lose her composure.

"Aqing doesn't believe this. He still thinks that someone is playing a prank, but his character is getting more and more irritable. I'm a little worried and want to ask Boss Wang..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Xilou interrupted: "Boss Liu, feudal superstition can harm people. You have become a big boss, why are you becoming more and more superstitious?"

"Is twenty thousand enough?"

"..."

Wang Xilou suddenly felt a dull pain in his face.

It turns out that this person is not a feudal superstitious person. People believed that money can make ghosts grind mills. No, now it should be that money can make zombies grind mills.

"Well, I'll ask my disciple to go there."

"Is that unreasonable? Speaking of which, I haven't seen you for several years, I don't know how old I am."

"Ah, it's very high. Children grow up if they don't pay attention."

"Ha, yes, Xiaoxiao is the same. I used to be a little crybaby, but suddenly it has grown so big, and I have become old all of a sudden."

He finally smiled, looked at Wang Xilou and said, "It's just that Boss Wang is still so young."

"Well-maintained means well-maintained."

"Boss Wang...are there really immortal people in the world?"

There seemed to be silence between the two of them for a long time. Wang Xilou smiled with his eyes narrowed.

"No."

"Is that so? That's right."

Boss Liu smiled, stood up and said goodbye to Wang Xilou.

When he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "Sister Hei... Liu Qiu'er is gone."

"Meow~"

Yeji in Wang Xilou's arms meowed in response to him.

After a while, the man walked out of the incense and candle shop, and she realized what he was doing and raised her head suddenly.

It's just that the man has already walked out into the sunset, with his back slightly hunched, no longer upright, and unlike when he was a child, his three steps could be taken as two steps. He just walked slowly to the car and drove away.

She stared blankly.

Wang Xilou's hand fell on her body and stroked her hair gently.

…

Speaking of which, Junsha Funeral Home is indeed haunted again these days.

Many people who work here have seen that thing.

I heard that he was wearing white clothes, with his hair disheveled, and his bare feet floating around in the funeral parlor.

He was probably around 20 years old, and his appearance couldn't be seen clearly from a distance.

Among them, the one who has seen each other the most, or who sees each other every time, is the eldest son of the Liu family, Liu Qing.

He firmly believed that someone was up to something. He tried to catch the person several times, but he turned around and disappeared again.

Because of this, his temper became increasingly violent.

Irritability mixed with a little uneasiness.

When he took the civil service exam, he took the exam at the funeral parlor. The salary was good and there was nothing to do. He actually just sat in the office every day. The work in the funeral parlor actually had nothing to do with them.

The end of the world is the examination and the end of life is the funeral parlor.

He felt that this choice would save him decades of struggle in life.

Liu Qing looked at the clock on the wall and saw that he didn't get off work in half an hour.

There is no air conditioning in the office, and the temperature here is very low. Even if the air conditioning is not turned on, it will still be cool all year round.

Like a giant freezer.

They are in a single-family office building, four stories high.

However, now only he and one other colleague are left in the whole building.

The setting sun outside the window was like blood, and the whole world was dark red. The environment in the office gradually became dim, except for the computer screen on the desk of the colleague who had gone to the toilet.

Suddenly there was a crow outside the window, making a shrill sound.

He looked out the window and cursed.

Looking out the window at the funeral parlor in the dusk, the familiar environment during the day gradually feels strange at dusk, as if it has changed. There is a wide open space below, a few crows resting on the ground, and several altars outside the cremation site in the distance.

Families were burning paper money, a few pieces of paper money were flying high, some people were crying, a bus drove out of the parking lot, and the bus honked its horn, and the world at dusk seemed to be covered with a blood-red filter.

There were obviously people outside, but Liu Qing, who was sitting alone in the office, felt that they were actually far away from him. It was more like seeing them through the screen of an old TV than through the office window. He felt that even if he ran downstairs,

These people can't be found, it's more like he is forgotten here alone.

In this dark environment, it feels like something is coming out.

At this time, the lights in the office suddenly turned on by themselves.

Liu Qing was startled.

It was the colleague who went to the toilet with a stomach upset and came back.

"It's almost dark, why don't you turn on the lights?"

He breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that he was too surprised.

After the colleague came back, the feeling of loneliness that he was far away from this world disappeared instantly. He felt like he had fallen back into another world. He smiled and said: "I was just planning to drive here. Are you okay? Did you eat something wrong for lunch?"

"

"Stop talking, I suspect the bacon sent from my hometown has gone bad." His colleague said in pain.

"It's almost time to get off work. Let's go to the hospital later."

"But the bacon is really delicious, just like my mother's taste."

Maybe it was a psychological effect, but he suddenly felt that this sentence was a bit offensive. Just as Liu Qing was about to say something, his colleague ran out again with a painful look on his stomach.

"No, I have to go again."

Liu Qing watched silently as he rushed out.

The door is not closed either.

The blood-red sunset in the corridor outside has faded, leaving only darkness. The light in the office from the open door can only illuminate a small area of ​​the corridor, and the distance is submerged in darkness.

Just then, the lights in the office flashed.

Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, and the next second the world fell into darkness.
To be continued...
