Chapter 45: A New Identity
A week later, I came to my second uncle's shop as promised to report.
I have to admire the vision of my grandparents. When the playground was built, it was still a wilderness. Talents in urban areas are reluctant to live in this rural-urban area.
I still vaguely remember that my grandparents were studying real estate advertisements at home, holding urban planning and construction reports in one hand and real estate DMs in the other. At that time, I was still young, and I only remember my grandparents and aunts, and my dad had a fierce quarrel.
My father and aunt firmly disagreed with them using their pension money to buy this shop, and my grandparents insisted on the appreciation value of this land, and the second uncle, who was still a stunned boy at that time, was silent.
Now that my grandparents have been gone for several years, there is a new university town next to this original "wasteland", the largest comprehensive playground in Asia, high-end residences, and housing prices have increased several times!
The second uncle persisted for ten years and did not change careers, allowing the "neighbors" around him to change from breakfast shops to drink shops to nail salons, he remained unmoved, and did his own convenience store business safely.
The convenience store business is very simple to maintain, it is to survive.
Because the location of the store is at the exit of the playground, it is made in a 24/7 mode. With the promotion of the playground in place, more and more outsiders and foreigners come here, especially during the summer vacation, and the business of convenience stores is full!
I just arrived, I saw that everything was fresh, touched the cash register, moved the freezer, and then ran to the back warehouse to have a look.
The second uncle looked at me happily, and when I was done, he called me forward.
"How is it? Are you satisfied with the inspection?"
I was amused by him: "Haha, satisfied, satisfied, second uncle, what are you going to let me do?"
The second uncle tilted his head: "My family has always been in charge of financial power!
I knew that the second uncle was hurting me, and he gave me the easiest job. Don't be tired or worry, just collect and collect.
I made a salute: "Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
"Hahaha. "The second uncle was amused by me.
The current cashier in the store is a young lady named Butterfly. The young lady is a college student who works part-time in the summer. The second uncle asked me to follow the butterfly internship for a week first, and once I was familiar with the operation password, I could get started directly.
The butterflies didn't pay much attention to me. I muttered in my heart: "Anyway, I'm also the boss's nephew, and I can be regarded as a relative of the emperor, so I don't give face." “
All day, I stood dryly behind the butterfly, watching her scan the code with the scanner non-stop, collect money, and want to help but couldn't get in, embarrassed to death.
At eight o'clock in the evening, there were finally fewer people, and several employees in the store ate a boxed lunch together.
I took advantage of the fact that everyone was together, and the atmosphere was relaxed and deliberately found something to talk to the butterfly.
"Butterfly, where are you from, where did you go to college?"
The butterfly still had a cold face and answered me in extremely short words.
I touched my nose and had to bury my head in eating. But I found that the butterflies had been secretly watching me. Could it be that there is something wrong with this young lady?
I decided to keep an eye on her.
The next day, the second uncle came to the store early in the morning and asked me how I was learning. The butterfly was standing next to me at the time, and I couldn't bear to expose that she didn't teach me at all, so I deliberately said with a big grin: "It's good, I'll be able to get started in a few days." “
The second uncle nodded with satisfaction and went to the back warehouse.
"You don't have to. Butterfly said coldly.
"Oh, I'm not for you, don't think about it. "You're welcome.
"Do you want to see the previous accounts? It's all in the cabinet under the cash register. “
"No, the second uncle trusts you so much. I've never doubted you!" I snorted, but unfortunately the butterfly was not moved at all, and it was still cold.
In the evening, it was my turn to work the night shift, and it was the first time I was on night duty, and I was looking forward to it. Those late-night convenience stores in the movie, but love, passion, and danger are high! I don't know if I will encounter something on my first night duty.
At eleven o'clock, there were basically no guests.
The hotel of the amusement park is in the park, and there is also a supporting supermarket, but the price is several times more expensive. In the evening, the guests were too lazy to walk three or four kilometers to buy things, and business suddenly became cold.
I was bored with my phone, and at this moment, the butterfly sitting next to me suddenly stood up and walked outside the store.
I looked out curiously, what was she doing in the middle of the night? Is there some secret to her?
I thought, quietly pushed the door and walked out.
In front of the convenience store is a parking lot, and the butterflies seem to have evaporated, and there is no one in sight.
I turned around and locked the door and dived like a fish into the massive blackness of the parking lot.
Suddenly, a quarrel caught my attention.
I hurriedly hid myself behind a pickup truck, the sound was a little familiar...... It's a butterfly!, I almost screamed, and I covered my mouth.
The sound came from the side of a small car. I slipped over and saw butterflies arguing fiercely with a boy.
The butterfly was devastated, not at all the iceberg beauty in front of me. Her hands were in her hair, and her chest was heaving violently, feeling like it was going to explode at any moment.
The boy looked like he loved someone, with his hands in his trouser pockets, calmly looking at the butterflies.
"It's really not good, you change jobs. The boy said that the words were all indifferent.
"Do you have a conscience? How many jobs have I changed? Every time it's because of you!" Butterfly broke down as she roared and roared. But the boy on the other side was still indifferent.
"Then let's break up. The boy said this, changed his posture, and looked away.
"Hehe," the butterfly laughed suddenly. But her smile made me feel ...... Dreariness.
"Well, I don't want to love you either. I'm fucking slutty to fall in love with you, or I wouldn't have to live like this!"
The butterfly rushed up, clenched her hands into fists and landed heavily on the boy's body. The boy didn't dodge, let the butterfly hit, and grabbed on himself.
The butterfly was tired of tossing and squatting on the ground and sobbing sadly.
"You...... Can you please stop it. "The butterfly's voice is so low that it can barely be heard.
"It's me who is not good. Let's break up. The boy turned and walked away.
The butterfly crouched in place and cried for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up and hugged the boy from behind.
"You can stop it, okay? We'll get married after I graduate and live a good life." ”
"For the last time. The boy turned around and gently wrapped his arms around the butterfly.
"How many times have you said it's the last time!" the screams of butterflies were particularly poignant in the empty parking lot.
"It's really the last time!" the boy growled.
The butterfly seemed to have lost its strength and lay on the boy's shoulder.
"I really tried my best. Every day living this fearful life, I acquired. The butterfly cried.
"Now, I really can't help it. The boss asked his own nephew to come to work in the store, and it was me who took over the work. ”
Is there anything else I have to do with this? The second monk I listened to was confused, but he felt that things were not so simple, so he straightened his ears and listened carefully.
"Isn't this convenience store open 24 hours a day?
A rough voice sounded in the back, leaning ...... Which one doesn't have long eyes to buy things at this time!
I hurriedly slid to the convenience store, and saw a man of five big and three thick in the distance whining the lock in front of the store.
The butterfly also noticed it and separated from the boy.
What can I do? I'm tormented. Now in the past, she was discovered by butterflies, and her boyfriend doesn't seem to be a vegetarian, so I won't survive tonight, right......
Now I can't go over, wait for the butterfly to ask me where I have been, what do you say?
I was anxious like an ant on a hot pot in the dark, when I saw an emaciated body appear in front of the store.
"It's coming. What do you need from this gentleman?"
