At dusk, Xuan Hao rode a battery car back to the old community hidden behind the high-rise buildings.
Parked the car in the parking lot, said hello to the guard here, and came to the dilapidated old building. It was an old building with a red brick exterior, a cement balcony, and green-painted wooden windows.
It doesn't date back to its age, but it makes him feel nostalgic.
Climbing up the stairs, there are small advertisements all over the stairs for 'Unblocking Sewers', 'Opening Locks' or 'So-and-So Broadband'.
He came to a door, took out the key, and opened the dusty memory.
"I'm back……"
There was no response, of course.
Xuan Hao looked at the empty room and was silent for a while.
This is his infrequent residence. This bungalow in an old community was bought specially by him. He probably used it to reminisce about his life before he came to this world.
How long have you been in this world? He feels like he can't remember clearly. Time is indeed the sharpest knife. Even if he is immortal, he will forget the trivial events of the distant past.
There are some things that cannot be forgotten, and it is precisely because of this that he bought this house.
The layout here is very similar to the house in his previous life. After a few modifications, it became his home.
When Xuanhao returned home, he lay on the sofa in a daze for a while, but when the sun went down, no one came to ask him to eat again.
He stood up helplessly, made a bowl of instant noodles, threw it into the trash can after eating, and walked into the bathroom.
Everything seemed normal.
Just like an ordinary person, living an ordinary life, but this house is really deserted.
He walked out of the bathroom expressionlessly, got dressed, and returned to his room.
He sat in front of the table and turned on the desk lamp, letting the dazzling incandescent light cover his field of vision.
There is no computer in this 'home', so sitting at the table is naturally not for entertainment.
He was just resting. The fatigue caused by working all day made him feel a little dazed. Yes, he was working, an ordinary part-time job. After returning to China and having nothing to do, he would try to get back to the past.
Of course, the workload of an ordinary person in a day cannot make him feel physically exhausted, but he is just a little mentally tired. An indescribable feeling of loneliness has always been with him. For a hundred years, he could only keep doing various tasks.
Things will make this feeling a little lighter.
So he began to recall, over and over again, the girl in school uniform under the sun, her warm and beautiful smile, and the unpalatable food she cooked.
I really miss it.
He stretched out his hand in a daze to grab something, but there was only nothingness in the air.
Like a zombie, he opened his drawers one after another.
There was nothing in the drawer. Even the thick photo album was empty.
This is really just a fake place.
Xuan Hao knew very well that he could not go back to the past.
But now, when he felt like he could catch something, he realized that he still had nothing. He didn't even leave a single photo in a long time.
Apart from those vague memories, there are good things and sad things.
There is only one handsome body left.
"Life... no matter how many times you experience it, it is always difficult." A wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He lowered his head and looked at his phone.
The message sent has not been responded to yet.
"Are you really angry?"
He scratched his head helplessly.
He should have thought that Fenrir's injury would make Xia Mi angry, but he didn't expect that he didn't even reply to the message, which was sad.
Forget it, never mind, go to sleep.
A social beast should look like a social beast, even if it is fake, it should still look like that. After a hard day at work, how can you have time to coax girls?
…
In the early morning, Xuanhao planned to start another day of working life. Now he is a veritable 'working emperor'.
After opening the door of the convenience store and changing shifts with the boss, he skillfully sorted the bills in the cashier.
This convenience store is open 24 hours a day. The boss is a middle-aged uncle who looks kind and nice. He does not allow employees to work night shifts. He keeps vigil at night.
The whole morning's work went smoothly. The boss sorted out almost everything on the shelves in the evening. Maybe he couldn't have any free time. Or maybe he looked after him because he was 'young', so he took care of young people?
In short, although Xuanhao is now a wage earner, his work is surprisingly easy.
The whole day's work went quite smoothly, and there was nothing special except for the interesting look of disbelief on the boy's face when he met Lu Mingfei at noon.
That's right, the convenience store where he worked was near Lu Mingfei's house. At noon, Lu Mingfei's house ran out of soy sauce, and his aunt drove him down to make soy sauce again.
Lu Mingfei couldn't figure it out, why did this big boss come here to work as a convenience store cashier? Is this what is called experiencing life? He really couldn't understand the thinking of rich people. But he didn't care much.
Already.
Xuan Hao didn't say anything, and acted as if he didn't know Lu Mingfei. The two of them had a tacit understanding of each other, and of course they wouldn't give any discount to Lu Mingfei.
His main purpose here is to experience life, but he can also watch Lu Mingfei's situation. There is no way, recent things are a bit unexpected, it is always good to stay vigilant. Lu Mingfei is the core of this world, be optimistic about it.
He is always right.
"This... miss, the total is 74 yuan, thank you for your patronage."
The professional smile on Xuan Hao's face was slightly twitchy. He was thinking about something just now and kept his head down while scanning the goods without looking up at the customers. As a result, he almost lost his composure when he raised his head.
"OK."
A somewhat vicious voice replied, and a slender white hand snatched the change from Xuan Hao's hand.
The girl snorted coldly and left without looking back.
"Damn it." Xuan Hao covered his face.
This incident taught him that no matter what he did, he had to be serious, otherwise he would regret it later.
Xia Mi came to buy something, but he ignored him.
Does this 74 yuan thing want him to die once?
But the fact that she came to me means that she has almost calmed down, right? Xuanhao thought to himself.
Indeed, Xia Mi had almost lost his temper at the beginning.
But when she found this guy, she pretended to buy something and waved it in front of him twice. The guy didn't react at all, and she didn't know who she thought was so fascinated. So she bought something and left in anger.
"Oh... work hard, work hard, men who work hard are the most attractive." Xuan Hao sighed helplessly and started to work.
Since he arrived, the convenience store's business has been much better than usual, and most of its customers are women.
This is why the boss doesn't let him work the night shift. On the one hand, there are more customers during the day, and on the other hand, it's not safe for the boy to be alone at night.
