Chapter 1 My name is Zhou Du, and I am a king of Hades
December, coastal area, H city.
It was just after a shower, and the road was a little muddy.
A young woman with a high ponytail runs on the side of the road near the neighborhood.
She wears a luminous bracelet for night running, a Bluetooth headset in her left ear, and hums a few times from time to time.
Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a shadow slowly appearing in front of her.
Behind her shadow, a man appeared at some point and stretched out his hand towards her......
"Hmm!! Woohoo......"
Five minutes later, a pair of shoes appeared in front of the dropped Bluetooth headset, and the streetlights reflected the emaciated shadow of the shoe owner.
A man's slender hand picked up the earphone and brought it to his ear.
“…… If life is unfair and unreasonable for everyone, then let me move on with loneliness until ......"
The music came to an abrupt end.
The man looked around and only found a surveillance camera in the distance.
With a sigh, he turned away and walked into a 24-hour convenience store.
"Welcome."
The sensor door beeps.
The young female saleswoman raised her eyes and glanced at it, and immediately paused the popular bloody online drama in her notebook, and her spirits were lifted.
Visually more than 1.8 meters tall, tall and thin, good looking, looking only seventeen or eighteen years old.
A real little fresh meat!
"Hello, how can I serve you?"
Refreshed, she stood up from behind the cash register with a standard business smile.
The man walked straight up to her, scratching his hair and smiling, looking a little embarrassed.
"Hello, can I borrow your computer?" I'm a little bit of a thing...... Soon, it's being used here. ”
The salesman's heart was struck.
The deer-like moist eyes, the harmless expressions of humans and animals, who can withstand this!
"Convenient."
Without saying a word, the notebook was flipped over to the man.
"Thank you."
After taking the computer, under the inexplicable enthusiastic gaze of the salesman, the man's hands quickly tapped on the keyboard, and the mysterious windows were opened one after another. Soon, the new pages of the Huaguo Archives were brought up.
His fingertips paused for a moment, then tapped down.
Name: Zhou Du
Gender: Male
Date of birth: November 28, 2000
Hometown: H City
……
Ten minutes later, Zhou Du hit the enter key, and the screen returned to the page where the online drama was paused before.
Zhou Du turned the notebook back, bent down and bowed, and thanked him repeatedly.
"Listen to the accent, you shouldn't be a local, right?"
Zhou Du's expression was stunned, as if he had thought of something, and laughed.
"I'm a local, but I've lived somewhere else since I was a kid."
The saleswoman suppressed the excited girl's heart and kindly reminded: "Then you should go back to the place where you live early." It's not been very safe here lately. Last month, a girl who lived alone came home from overtime and disappeared. I haven't found anyone yet. ”
Zhou Du raised his eyes to look at her.
"And you're still on duty alone?"
The other party was stunned for a moment, and then blushed.
"To make money......
While he was talking, the mobile phone in Zhou Du's bag vibrate.
He gestured, pulled out his phone and walked out of the convenience store.
"Lao Zhou, have you really returned to the yang world?"
A neat royal sister voice came from the phone, and her tone was full of excitement.
"Hmm."
"Excellent! Tell me how the sun is now? ”
Zhou Du looked around, high-rise buildings, neon signs flashing, and lights everywhere at night.
"There is no trace of the past to be seen." He paused, then chuckled again: "However, the level of science and technology is indeed good. Guess how long it took me to hack into the archives to create a new identity? ”
"Twenty minutes?"
"Ten minutes."
The woman on the other side of the phone laughed, and she could feel her charm through the phone.
"Hey, I tell you, hit you and jump into the Yellow Spring, that old man is like a dead son, I have never seen him like this. You really can't bear it, the position of others squeezing your head makes you sit in vain, you are good, you don't cherish it at all. ”
"Don't do it. Do you know what people say about me? The 10,000-year-old nail household of the Hades Palace. ”
This is what he said on the way to Huangquan this morning, when a familiar ghost pulled him to complain.
The ghost had just been in office for three hundred years, and when he saw that Zhou Du didn't use a flying machine to travel, he thought he was a newcomer.
At that time, the original words of the people were: [If there was no 10,000-year-old nail household in the Hades Palace, according to the results of the civil service examination in the underworld, I would have been able to enter the Hades Palace. I didn't expect that when I got to the underworld, I still had to cross the single-plank bridge with thousands of troops, and I didn't expect that there were also related households in the underworld, where is there fairness in this world, hey......]
Zhou Du was a kind person, and it wasn't until the old man revealed his identity by the Yellow Spring that he shyly introduced himself in the shocked gaze of the ghost.
[I am the 10,000-year-old nail household you said. 】
"yes, you know."
It's not intentional on the other end of the phone.
"You already knew?"
"Hey, I told you, communicate more with your colleagues. You don't know the whole hell...... How about it, is the world happy with sunshine and good food? ”
Zhou Du smiled bitterly: "The underworld currency is not in circulation, and now it is the middle of the night, and I don't even have a place to live." ”
"This little problem is not difficult for you to be the king of Zhou Dayan. Find a younger girl and seduce her. ”
Zhou Du turned around, caught the salesman peeking at him, and smiled.
"What nonsense, am I that kind of person? I won't tell you, I'll figure it out. ”
Hanging up the phone, Zhou Du turned around and went back to the convenience store.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Du looked at her with great sincerity: "Anyway, I'm not sleepy, I'll be with you for a while." ”
"Ah...... No, you don't. ”
"You're a girl on the night shift, aren't you afraid?"
The saleswoman couldn't help but shake her head: "It's okay." I'm still more afraid of ghosts. ”
"What are ghosts to be afraid of?"
……
In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Du left the convenience store and went to a dark alley.
Last night, he had a good conversation with the salesman and basically learned a lot about the neighborhood. Among them, the accident included the whereabouts of this morning's breakfast.
After passing through several intersections, he came to his destination.
This is a corner forgotten by the entire civilized city.
The narrow road of less than two meters, the potholed stone road, the top of the head is a privately pulled clothesline, and there are still some clothes left on it that have not had time to be collected.
Deep in the alley, five or six old people and children gathered around a young man and took the lunch box in his hand.
According to the salesman, there is a mute who will give these poor households three meals a day every day.
Zhou Du's footsteps stopped, and his gaze went straight through the mute young man with a warm smile, and landed behind him.
An uncle who was missing half of his head, squatting on the ground, holding his arms, looked up at the mute young man.
The remaining half of the head still had white brains and red and black blood stains.
He withdrew his gaze and raised an eyebrow.
It's kind of interesting.
