Chapter Twenty-Three: Devouring the Breath of Life
When the call is made, there is no answer. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Luo Hao was unwilling, and called several times in a row, but still no one answered.
"What the hell is this monkey doing? Why not answer the phone! Are you fooling around with any woman? ”
Hanging up the phone in annoyance, Luo Hao walked back and forth in the office with a gloomy face.
Zibo is still not dead, this thing is like a thorn in his heart, so that he can't breathe.
After thinking about it, Luo Hao strode out of the office and decided to go to the monkey's house.
He's going to see what the hell this guy is doing and why he hasn't killed Zibo yet!
After going through all the formalities at the driving school, it's almost one o'clock.
Xia Lin immediately invited Qi Bo to lunch together, but Zhong Xuexue was unhappy.
Qi Bo refused Charlene's invitation without thinking about it, after all, he owed her too much favor, and if he was cheeky enough to ask her to have dinner now, Qi Bo really couldn't pull that face.
But let him pay for Charlene to eat, with the little money in his pocket now, I'm afraid he can only go to the noodle restaurant to finish the noodles alone.
"Thank you, Mr. Xia, I still have some things to deal with, so I won't trouble you. What do you think of the next time I have a treat? ”
Charlene was such a smart person, how could she not understand what Zibo was thinking.
She nodded and said, "Then let's talk about the meal later, if you're in a hurry, or I'll drive you over first." ”
"Don't bother Mr. Xia, it's actually not a big deal, I'll just take the official car over."
"In that case, then I'll go, be careful yourself." When she said this, Charlene also looked at Zibo's injured foot with concern.
For the first time, he was cared for by someone other than his relatives, and Qi Bo was very moved.
"It's not a big deal, just take a day off."
"In this case, I'll give you three days off, and then go to learn to drive when your foot injury is healed."
Seeing that Qi Bo wanted to refuse, Xia Lin waved her hand and said, "That's it, and you can't learn to drive at all if you have a foot injury, let's talk about it after the injury heals!" ”
After speaking, she took Zhong Xuexue's hand and walked towards her BMW X5.
As soon as he returned to the door of the rental house with a limp, Zibo saw a man leaning against the door.
He looked only in his thirties, his face was pale and haggard, his lips and chin had not been trimmed for an unknown amount of time, his white shirt had been washed and yellowed, and his whole person looked very decadent and sloppy.
This person is Qi Bo's landlord, Li Feng.
At this time, he was holding a bottle of Fenggu Erqu for eight yuan, and was drinking it with his head up, while there were several empty wine bottles at his feet.
After seeing Qi Bo come back, he stopped drinking and wiped the liquor oozing from the corner of his mouth with his hand.
"Boy, you're finally back! I'm looking for you for something! ”
When Qi Bo heard this, his heart chuckled, and he sneered: "Something? What's the matter? Brother Li, I remember that I gave you this month's rent a week ago! ”
Li Feng hiccuped and said with seven points of drunkenness: "It's not about rent!" ”
There was a sour smell of wine in the air as he spoke, and Qi Bo almost vomited out the noodles he had eaten at noon.
"So what the hell are you looking for me? Wouldn't it be for me to have a drink! ”
"Would you like to drink? Hehe! Let's wait until you pay off the bill! ”
Li Feng came over drunk, and at the same time took out a note from his trouser pocket, handed it to Qi Bo, and said, "Boy, this is a gift from me, remember, pay me back together when you pay the rent next month!" ”
After receiving the "gift" handed over by Li Feng, Qi Bo opened the note and looked at it, and was dumbfounded.
The note was prominently displayed with bills on it.
"Door keyhole repair cost: 250.00 yuan
It takes 3 hours for a part-time worker to clean the room, 50 yuan per hour, a total of 100 yuan, plus 10 yuan for food.
The new two keys are 20 yuan.
Total: $380.00.
At the same time, in view of the failure to report the landlord's news in time, the compensation for economic losses: 20 yuan.
A total of 400 yuan!
Tenant 222 is requested to pay the landlord at the end of this month along with the next month's rent. ”
Qi Bo angrily threw away the note in his hand, pointed to the drunkard's nose and asked loudly: "You are simply a lion's mouth, I admit the money for the repair of the keyhole and the key, what are the other things?" Did I ask you to work part-time? Even if you find a part-time job, why should you let me pay for food, and what kind of thing is mental loss? Where do you have the slightest insaneness? ”
Li Feng slapped Qi Bo's hand away, and sneered: "What qualifications do you have to be angry, it seems that it is me who should be angry!" If you hadn't broken the door, I wouldn't have known your room was so messy! I remember that there was a clause written in the rental contract: then the tenant must not make a mess of the room, and if the landlord finds out that he can directly contact the contract, he can even refuse to pay the rent that the tenant has paid! Not only did I not kick you out, but I also asked someone to tidy up your room for you, and you still have complaints! Love to live, don't live and pack up and leave! ”
After Li Feng said this, Qi Bo tilted his head and thought about it, as if there was such a provision when he signed the contract at that time.
"Okay." Qi Bo's momentum suddenly weakened a little, sighed, and said: "Then I will recognize 380, and I will definitely not pay the remaining 20 yuan for mental damage!" ”
Li Feng raised his head and took a sip of wine, and continued: "As for the 20 yuan mental damage fee, you can choose not to give it, but I won't pay back the laptop you lent me!" ”
Laptop?
Only then did Qi Bo remember that since he hadn't paid the rent for the time being half a year ago, the bastard had just taken his second-hand Dell and left.
In the beautiful name, it is borrowed to watch the film, and when Qi Bo pays the rent, he will return it to him.
But until now, Li Feng has not returned the computer to him, it has been so long, he didn't say that Qi Bo had forgotten that he still had a computer.
"Oh, then I'll pay you a salary, but you have to give me back the notebook!"
"Wait until you give me the money before you talk about those things!" Li Feng drank the liquor in the bottle in one go, took out a key from his pocket again and threw it to Qi Bo, and then staggered to the third floor.
“……”
When encountering such an unscrupulous landlord, what else could Qi Bo say, he had to swallow his anger and appease this bastard for the time being.
At the same time, Qi Bo secretly thought that when he has money in the future, he must move out of this ghost place!
With a heavy heart, Qi Bo walked into the room.
Looking at the renovated room, he felt a little comforted in his heart.
Although two contractors died in this room, Qi Bo was too tired to do so, and now his desire for bed far outweighed his fear of the dead.
I went to the bathroom and took a shower, then fell asleep on the bed.
After Li Feng shook his body and returned to the room, he casually threw the empty wine bottle aside, and collapsed on the sofa as if he was asleep.
After a few minutes, he opened his eyes suddenly, and his gaze was so clear that there was no trace of drunkenness at all.
Glancing around at the empty hall, after making sure that he was the only one in the room, Li Feng immediately got up from the sofa and strode to his bedroom.
Pushing open the bedroom door, a faint blood-colored light spilled out of it.
Following his gaze, there were two blood-colored beads on the counter at the head of his bed, and these blood-colored rays of light shot out of these two beads.
The rich blood-colored light reflected the room in a blood-colored patch, like a blood-colored purgatory!
Li Feng closed the door, walked over quickly and took the two beads in his hands, the expression on his face was extremely complicated.
"I didn't expect that I would have this day, and I would need to devour the breath of other contractors to survive...... Fate is such a magical thing, just when I closed my eyes and waited for death, you gave me hope to continue to live! As long as I fuse these two drops of life breath, I will not only be able to recover from my previous injuries, but I will also be able to further improve my abilities. Thank you so much, even though you've forgotten who I am now......"
After staring at them for a moment, Li Feng resolutely swallowed the two blood-colored beads into his mouth.
