5 Serendipity
Zach remembers following Walter to Pixar's department store, the noise of all kinds of sounds, the safe passages occupied by homeless people, the random distribution of shops like street stalls, and the piles of goods like hills......
There is no difference this time, but because it is daytime, the lights in Pixar Department Store are not even turned on, which actually gives people a darker feeling.
Zach didn't like the mixed and poorly ventilated smell here, and subconsciously covered his nose in the crowd. Think of it another way, Maggie Crescent's perfume is a breath of fresh air here.
Since he was here, Zach had the heart to go to the second floor of the department store to visit Maggie, firstly, as a thank you for helping Grande analyze spices last time, and casually inform her of the true purpose of spices, if Maggie was curious. Second, if you can meet Walter by chance, you can inquire about his current situation......
Of course, Zach didn't have any good intentions, and if he followed up with the phone call at Sharp's funeral and continued to guide (Zach asked Walter to help Mike pass a message to the demon for the soul lost in the explosion, and then put all the blame on Crowley) to maximize Walt's rejection of Crowley, that would be the best.
Thinking so, Zach just went, but, unexpectedly, the crescent perfume shop closed.
"Closed for a day, old customers please order directly by phone, and the crescent moon perfume shop supports door-to-door delivery service!"
Zach looked at the announcement posted on the closed roll-up door, raised his eyebrows, and maliciously guessed that the delivery could not be Walter......'s guy! Walter's move, huh.
Leaving the perfume shop behind, Zach went to the address on the business card Austen had given him.
After handing in to stop a few attracted by Zach's decent clothing. After the guy who held out his third hand, Zach found the place.
The pile of goods almost covered the entire storefront, Zach looked inside, and handed out his business card to the man nestled in the middle of a stack of sofas, "Hello, I'm introduced by Austen......"
"The owner is in the back. The man waved his hand. Don't pay attention to Zach anymore.
Zach raised his eyebrows, it seems that Austen's name is indeed a bit useful, at least the faΓ§ade pass directly.
When Zach entered the shop, he felt as if he had walked into a cave, wooden, iron, plastic...... All sorts of old objects were piled up on Zach's left and right and even on his head in an arched circle, leaving only a single walkway to the deepest part. It is estimated that it can directly lead to the back alley of Pixar Department Store to facilitate the passage of goods.
Halfway through, Zach frowned. This oppressive sense of space wasn't the reason, but Zach, who had slightly blocked out the noise outside the store, began to hear voices inside.
β...... We just bought a bed here a few days ago, and now we're here again, can't it be cheaper? You see, it's very old, and I don't think it's worth that much. "A woman's voice, a familiar woman's voice.
"Noble woman. Ma'am, do you want to know what's really expensive? You can go buy new ones! Don't waste everyone's time here. Strange man's voice.
"Mom. Let's go. The voice of the young man that you will never forget once you heard it, Brian's voice, "The original desk can be used." β
"No, I can't. Your room is too small, and after changing beds (Volume XVIII, Chapter 1), there is no way to walk, and you need a smaller desk. Baby, don't worry. Mom can pay the price back......"
Zach didn't go any further, he was hesitating whether to move on or not. Zach wasn't expecting to meet Brian at this kind of place, at this time.
Reality doesn't pause time, give Zach a good hesitation.
The strange man's voice was irritated. "If you can't pay it down, the price has already dropped from eighty to sixty for you! Don't waste my time, I want someone else to go cheaper!"
Footsteps sounded, and the strange man seemed too lazy to dwell on, as if he had only turned around and appeared at the end of this tight single passage.
Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth, glanced at the man who appeared at the end of the aisle, and then looked back at the long distance behind him, where there was nowhere to hide.
"Ahh
Zach could only continue to move forward, and at the end of the aisle, a mother and son also entered Zack's sight with helplessness on their faces.
The aisle, which could only accommodate a single person, showed his disadvantage at this point, and the three people at the end of the aisle were waiting for Zack to come. The strange man who was obviously the boss was looking forward to business, and Brian's mother and son were just waiting for the road to leave.
As Zach approached, Brian lowered his head the moment he saw Zach clearly, as if he was dodging and trying his best to avoid Zack's gaze in the limited space.
Zach realized that at this time, that person was not 'Brian', a fan of vampires who had been cut by the eyes of failure, but 'Ryan', who couldn't remember, talk about, or contact vampires.
Unlike Ryan's performance, his mother looked at Zach who was getting closer and closer, and seemed to remember something, and felt a little familiar.
Familiarity is natural, how to say that I have seen two sides, once on the bus, as a passerby, can be ignored. But the second time was at Emilia's clinic, for Brian's health, which could not be ignored, but was not officially introduced.
Zach finished walking the aisle and got out of the way, hoping to just pretend not to know him, Zach didn't want to be troubled.
"Ahh β
Hey, something unsatisfactory happened again.
"Sir?" Ryan's mother grabbed Ryan, who had already ducked into the aisle first, and rushed forward with her head down, with a smile on her face, "You're a doctor, aren't you? Do you remember us? We've met, at Dr. Browning's." β
Zach frowned, glanced at Ryan who was holding his head down, even though he was forcibly pulled and couldn't walk, but his whole body stiffened towards Ryan, who was in the opposite direction of Zack, and shook his head, "No, ma'am, you recognized the wrong person." β
"No, I don't. Ryan's mother laughed and denied it directly, "I can't be mistaken, hehe, I also confirmed with Dr. Browning's assistant ......"
Zack pursed his lips, uh, that female assistant who inexplicably rejected Zack, God knows what she would say!
"When I went there for the first time, I saw Dr. Browning with you, but Dr. Browning didn't introduce me, I was a little curious, hehe, please understand, the first time I went to such a psychiatric clinic, I was still a little worried. Then the assistant lady said that Dr. Browning took Brian's situation very seriously and specially invited a consultant to consult me, which reassured me......"
That's what the woman said......
"But there was a bit of an accident that time, well, I couldn't complete the treatment, and when I went the second time, I asked about it, but you didn't show up again......"
With mixed feelings, Zach looked at the stiff Brian and pursed his lips, "Oh, Brian, yes, I remember." β
People have said it in such detail that they can't deny it. (To be continued......)
