Listening to Mr. Ming talk about the Jade Garden he knew, the consequence was that I was late. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It's terrible to be late the next day at work.

When I ran to the gate of the Jade Garden out of breath, I was relieved to see the lights on inside. Slow down to calm your breath and get ready to go inside. I walked to the door, my hands were already on the door, but suddenly I heard a noisy sound from the jade garden. The shouts of the people, the laughter of the women, the messy and crisp collisions, and the many voices that spoke, but it was impossible to hear what was being said.

Is this a guest? I really can't imagine that Mr. Yu would have such a noisy guest. I hesitated to push the door in. After all, if it was really a guest, it would be rude for me to push the door in like this.

"Crunch-"

The old, heavy door made an almost screeching sound as it opened, and the door to the Jade Garden was opened before I could make a decision. The cacophony disappeared at the same time.

"Good evening, Miss Ye." Shirako stood opposite, holding the door panel with his left hand and an oil lamp with the other. The pulsing orange-yellow shimmer cast a deep shadow on his face. Behind him was an empty shop.

……

I was almost scared to death.

A few minutes later, I sat down in a chair in the shop, soothing my frightened soul with the tea that Shirako had poured for me. I don't blame me for being surprised. Even if I had known for a long time that Yuyuan was a strange place full of spirits, it was reasonable for me to be frightened and exploded immediately after hearing those things that Mr. Ming said.

"Mr. and Kuroko went out to run errands, so it's not easy to leave you alone." Shirako sat across from me, maintaining a normal expression of a smile, and I don't know if she was laughing at me for being timid. "So sir asked me to stay with you. First, it makes you afraid of something that you don't need to be afraid of, and secondly, you are not very familiar with the work of Yuyuan, and having me can also make you make fewer mistakes. Now that you're a newcomer, there's still a chance that something will happen that you don't know how to handle, and I'll help you solve it first. After a while, you'll probably be on your own. ”

"Okay-yes-" I really want to thank you......

"That's right," Shirako didn't mind my listless attitude, narrowed his eyes that had turned into crescents because of his smile, leaned over and said mysteriously, "Do you want to know what happened to the voice just now?" ”

It can't really be a bunch of ghosts...... I held my breath and didn't dare to move, waiting for Shirako to reveal the answer.

Bai Zi continued to lower his voice and said with a serious expression: "The voice just now is because of ...... Dangdangdang! He suddenly pulled out his hand behind his back and held a cell phone up to me.

I was defenseless, and I almost fell out of my chair when Baizi suddenly came to me.

"Hahahaha......" Bai Zi laughed so hard that he squatted on the ground and couldn't get up, and I immediately understood that I was being tricked by this guy.

"Hey!"

"The TV series that just came down, do you want to watch it together?" Bai Zi raised his phone and clicked the play button. The voices I heard at the entrance of the Yuyuan Garden gushed out of my phone, and it seemed that the volume was turned up to the maximum, "After all, there's nothing here, it's too boring." ”

I couldn't help but complain: "As a thousand-year-old antique, I still know how to play with my mobile phone......"

"So what?" Bai Zi smiled and shot back, "It can only mean that my lowest IQ is also on par with you humans."

……

It's good to lose under it.

……

I started watching it from halfway through, and the TV series that I haven't understood until now is still very attractive. At least in unattractive stores that are not frequented.

There was a faint sound of a bell, and I subconsciously looked at the time, just after twelve o'clock. I looked at Bai Zi again, and his current state can probably be summed up in two words: sleep. I sighed and looked around, trying to find a quilt or something to cover him. Even though I knew that the kid was a non-human at all, I thought it would be better to build something for him.

Ah, there it is.

The eye touches a shelf in the upper left, where there is a rolled blanket.

I got up and walked there. But just after taking two steps, I heard a knock on the door. Got guests? I looked back and saw that Bai Zi was still lying on the table, hesitated for a moment, walked over and opened the door.

There was an empty space outside the door.

It's so late, how can someone still play a prank! I froze for a moment and closed the door slightly in exasperation.

"Sleep." Bai Zi woke up at some point and moved a chair and put it opposite him. "Trouble making two cups of tea? This guest has come from afar. ”

Guests from afar?

I can only see Shirako.

It seems that the buyer this time is not perceptible to man?

"Okay." I said yes and went to the place where the tea was kept.

"Oh, and the shelf behind the tea cans, in the middle of the fifth floor...... On the right, there, well, there's a black rectangular box. Bring it along with its list price, and the guests fancy that. ”

"Oh...... Good"

I don't think the box is small. It is about twenty centimeters wide and more than a meter long. At the top of the box is a small wooden box with a price tag.

Really...... I didn't think I could carry the tea with this box at one time, so I had to make the tea first, and then go and get the black box between the white child and the chair opposite.

I stood by the shelf and held out a hand. The moment I touched the box, I thought I had hit an ice cube. The biting cold dripped down my fingertips and spread between my bones, almost freezing my whole body in place. No. It's frozen in place. I tried desperately to withdraw my arm, but I was frozen and couldn't even blink an eye.

It's really cold. It was probably the coldest summer I've ever experienced.

Good thing I wasn't frozen for long.

Shirako came to me and hung something on me. All the cold disappeared in an instant. I could still feel them lingering in my fingertips, they just left my body.

"What's going on!" When I recovered, I glared at Bai Zi angrily: "Why haven't I heard that going to pick up a product is also life-threatening." ”

"It's really not life-threatening." Bai Zi looks very innocent, "at most, he can only be motionless......"
