Chapter 45: Twelve O'Clock (Collect!) Ask for recommendations! )
The colorful world disappears in an instant.
The black and white color of the old photograph reappeared.
In the Kenda Chicken Restaurant, it suddenly changed into another picture.
Yin and yang eyes, open instantly.
Looking at the drunken man, he was full of alcohol but was conscious, and there was nothing unusual about him.
Looking around, the entire Kenda Chicken restaurant is very calm.
There is no sign of the Evil Spirit.
Jiang Huo turned his head and looked out.
On the empty street, only the street lights flickered, and from beginning to end, there was nothing unusual.
Such a scene not only did not reassure Jiang Huo, but made her nervous.
The system will never issue tasks for no reason.
This eerie calm was only a prelude to the storm.
Jiang Huo looked down at his palm, and in his white palm, there was a fluctuation that could not be distinguished by the naked eye.
After the drunken man finished ordering, he randomly found an empty seat around and sat down, and he kept pouring wine into his mouth.
Look at his appearance, as if the bottle was filled with ordinary water.
The man held his belly up, his right hand kept stroking his belly, his mouth was open, and he burped.
"Hiccup!" The rich smell of wine emanated from his mouth, and the cashier girl who was standing there smelled it, and her face turned green.
The man shook the bottle to make sure that the wine in the bottle was finished, and then discarded the bottle on the table with a disappointed face.
Another bottle was bitten open, its mouth wide open, and the wine kept pouring into its mouth.
"Hiccup......
In less than half a minute, this bottle of wine was also drunk by the middle-aged man.
After disposing of the two bottles of beer, the man didn't seem to be having enough time, he stretched out his arm, his index finger bent, and hooked the river fire at the door.
Jiang Huo, who had been observing the man's movements there, raised his eyebrows and walked over.
"Sir, do you need anything?" Jiang Huo held his breath and asked the man in a very formulaic tone.
The man's eyes rolled up, glanced at Jiang Huo, and then took out a red hairy grandfather in his pocket, and slapped it on the table.
"Could you please go to the convenience store next door and buy me three bottles of beer, this is the brand." As he spoke, the man also pointed to the wine bottle on the table.
"I'm sorry, we ...... in the store" Jiang Huo just wanted to refuse, but the man asked.
"Do you have a rule that you can't bring your own alcohol?" The man pointed to the sign at the door and stared at Jiang Huo with a smile on his face.
Jiang Huo looked in the direction of the man's finger, and the sign in the hall clearly stated that customers could bring their own drinks and drinks.
Although Kenda Chicken is a global chain, each local restaurant has its own rules to some extent.
The Kenda Chicken Restaurant Huayuan Branch stipulates that guests can bring their own drinks.
It's just that no guest has ever done that.
Jiang Huo looked at the cashier girl at the front desk as if asking for help, and the beautiful woman with the hat could only shrug her shoulders helplessly.
"I'm sorry for you." The man picked up Grandpa Mao and handed it to Jiang Huo.
Jiang Huo took Grandpa Mao, stuffed it into the pocket of the apron in front of him, and walked out of the Kenda Chicken Restaurant.
About 100 meters north of Kenda Chicken Restaurant, there is a 24-hour convenience store.
"Welcome." When the sensor detected that someone had entered, it immediately emitted the electronic synthesized sound that had been set up for a long time.
In a convenience store of more than 30 square meters, there is only one clerk on duty.
"Hello, what do I need to buy?" The female clerk who was lying on the cash register chasing the drama stood up and asked Jiang Huo very politely.
The clerk was wearing a gray T-shirt and black trousers, and an apron with the convenience store logo on the front.
On the number plate in front of him, the name of the other party is engraved.
Liu Ying
"Take three bottles of Budweiser." Jiang Huo took out Grandpa Mao from his pocket and put it on the cash register.
The female clerk immediately agreed, she turned around, stood on tiptoe, took out three bottles of Budweiser from the high shelf behind her, and placed them on the cash register.
"Why are you here to buy beer so late, are you allowed to drink this pick-me-up at work?"
Jiang Huo was wearing Kenda Chicken's work clothes, and the female clerk could identify her at a glance, plus many staff members of Kenda Chicken Restaurant liked to come here to buy something at night, so the female clerk would ask Jiang Huo her own questions.
"There's a very strange customer in the store who wants me to come out and buy a beer for him." Jiang Huo shook his head helplessly, took the beer change and receipts handed by the female clerk, and said helplessly: "It's still easy for you, you can still catch up on dramas here at night." ”
"Where! It just so happened that there was no one at this time, so I was able to relax and relax, and I was usually busy to death. The female clerk made a grimace and immediately made Jiang Huo laugh.
After chatting casually, Jiang Huo walked out of the convenience store with a beer, but she didn't notice that the clock behind her had quietly pointed to twelve o'clock.
Returning to the dining room with three bottles of beer, the man was already eating on the table, Jiang Huo put the beer in front of him, and handed him the receipts and change in his pocket.
"Hmm, thank you." The man hurriedly thanked him, but judging from his tone, there was not much sincerity.
The beer bottle is put into the mouth, and with a strong bite, the cap falls off.
Spit the cap in his mouth on the table, the man raised his head and continued to pour beer into his mouth.
The Adam's apple shook and made a cooing sound.
The girl at the cash register beckoned vaguely to Jiang Huo, who glanced at the man in front of him and walked over.
"Alas, don't you think, this guy, is there something strange?" The cashier girl lowered her voice and leaned into Jiang Huo's ear and asked.
Odd?
Jiang Huo narrowed his eyes and looked at the man carefully, under the illumination of the energy-saving lamp, the man had nothing else unusual except for his sallow skin and a somewhat unpleasant face.
"What's weird?" Jiang Huo asked rhetorically.
The cashier girl vaguely pointed to the man's leg and said, "Haven't you noticed that since the man first entered the store, his knees have not been bent ......?"
Haven't bent your knees?
Jiang Huo was startled, she turned her gaze and looked towards the man's legs.
Sure enough, as the girl said, the man's legs have always maintained a straight posture and stretched forward.
The man sitting there eating and drinking didn't seem to know that someone was talking about him behind his back, and he munched on the food in his hand and swallowed it quickly.
This eating appearance can only be described in one word.
Starving ghosts.
Just when Jiang Huo was thinking about how to test the other party, the cashier girl suddenly patted Jiang Huo on the shoulder: "You look at the table for me, I'll go to the bathroom." ”
As he spoke, he took out a roll of paper from under the cash register, opened the baffle next to him, and walked in the direction of the restaurant bathroom.
At this time, in the entire customer dining hall, only Jiang Huo and the man were left.
Huang Ling, who was originally hiding in the corner, was nowhere to be found.
