Zhou Ze did not think that the faceless woman would do anything evil. She would only have more restrictions than him. Otherwise, she would not have chosen to 'disguise' herself as Doctor Lin to get close to him.
However, it was not a comfortable thing to be targeted by such a person.
She could become a security guard in a mall, a bus driver, or an old lady waiting for you to help her up by the roadside.
She could also become a caring big sister who called you into her house for tea in an alley.
As long as you still had connections, as long as you still needed to go out, she would have the ability to get close to you. And you had to be prepared to be ambushed by anyone around you.
Zhou Ze did not know what she wanted from him. However, similar to the many examples of female ghosts in supernatural novels who liked to absorb men's Yang energy to replenish themselves, the faceless woman probably had these few goals.
Or did she want his body?
Or, did she want to be a temporary worker now?
Zhou Ze wasn't sure if the little loli knew about this, but even if she knew, she probably wouldn't really interfere. That was because it was very likely that the faceless woman was deliberately released by the little loli and the other ghost messengers to help them do things.
The faceless woman did not directly attack him because she had other concerns. Of course, looking at the extremely obedient Bai Yingying, the faceless woman might also be afraid of his fingernails.
When he first entered Hell, the Faceless Woman had wanted to keep him here. In the end, she had been injured by his fingernails, allowing him to leave. Perhaps that incident had left a deep impression on her, forcing her to use her beauty to deal with him.
However, there was one thing that made Zhou Ze a little sad.
Ghost Saliva Fragrance.
Ten times, a hundred times more impulsive.
She could actually restrain herself.
Zhou Ze did not feel proud of his strong willpower.
There was only a faint, unfathomable sadness.
Sitting at the counter, he casually flipped through some books. Zhou Ze even went online to search for information about the faceless woman to see if he could find any valuable information.
He didn't find any valuable information, but he did find Stephen Chow's novel, "The Imperial Secret Agent".
Then, Zhou Ze and Bai Yingying spent half the afternoon reviewing the movie.
There was a villain boss in it. He did not have a face, but he could also transform into someone else.
It was already evening by the time they finished watching the movie. Zhou Ze signaled Bai Yingying to open the door.
Bai Yingying was a little hesitant. "Boss, aren't you afraid that she'll come again?"
"You're not doing business anymore?"
Zhou Ze asked, "Or can you contribute some funerary items so that I can exchange them for some money to circulate the shop's funds?"
The dead woman twitched her mouth, but she still went to open the door.
She was rich. When Madam Bai was buried, she was the daughter of a rich family, so there should be a lot of things buried with her. In addition, Madam Bai had stayed in the human world for two hundred years. She couldn't bring those things to hell with her, so naturally, they were left behind.
Zhou Ze had an idea of how many bags Bai Yingying had bought during the few times she went out.
At first, Zhou Ze suspected that the dead woman had stolen money from the shop, but when he realized that the money in the shop was not enough to cover the cost of her bags, he no longer doubted it.
Madam Bai had wanted to pick up Xu Qinglang, who owned more than twenty houses in the Yang Mansion.
Bai Yingying was obsessed with branded sachets,
This was definitely not good news for the single dogs in the world. It meant that even if you died and became a ghost, it would still be difficult.
Not long after the shop opened, when Zhou Ze went to make a cup of tea, a middle-aged man walked into the shop.
Bai Yingying stood on the spot and stared at the man.
Zhou Ze subconsciously looked at the man. Even though his rationality told him that the faceless woman would not change her appearance in such a hurry, he still had to be cautious.
The middle-aged man was wearing a leather jacket. Many parts of it had turned white. He was wearing a pair of old leather shoes and casual pants. They were not as glamorous.
He was also wearing a tall hat on top of his head, which made him look a little funny.
The middle-aged man walked to the bookshelf and subconsciously rubbed his hands. He was about to look for a book to read, but as he looked left and right, his frown deepened. He complained,
"Boss, all you have here are novels and stuff like that. Don't you have anything else to read?"
"I do."
Zhou Ze signaled Bai Yingying to move the box behind the counter over.
Bai Yingying did as she was told.
The man squatted down and continued to choose books from the box. He flipped through a few books, and the covers were all unsightly.
For example, Abin.
For example, the concierge.
For example, Tangerine Peel.
The middle-aged man was so angry that his fingers were trembling. He pushed the box forward.
"Why are you giving me these things?!"
The middle-aged man was furious. He stood up and pointed at Zhou Ze.
"Are all bookstores so shameless now?!
Hiding filth.
Hiding filth! "
Zhou Ze lit a cigarette and put one foot on the counter. He ignored the guy.
The middle-aged man turned around angrily and was about to leave. When he walked to the door of the shop, he turned his head and saw that there seemed to be some serious books on the small bookshelf at the door. He immediately stopped and chose Mr. Qian Mu's Outline of National History. Then, he sat down on a small stool and began to read.
Zhou Ze ignored him. His bookstore was not afraid of cold or raw. Humans and ghosts could come. It was just that the current situation was a little tense. He needed to pay more attention to the faceless woman's movements.
At that moment, Zhou Ze's phone rang. He took out the phone and saw that it was his sister-in-law.
"Hello." Zhou Ze listened to the phone seriously.
Last time, it was Doctor Lin's WeChat. This time, it was his sister-in-law's call. Perhaps the faceless woman was going to play half PG again.
"Brother-in-law..." his sister-in-law pouted.
Zhou Ze hung up the call.
Something was wrong.
Something was very wrong.
Since when was his sister-in-law so gentle?
This was clearly the rhythm of taking the initiative to give away half of a PG.
It was just like the night Maserati told Doctor Lin to wear stockings the next time.
Zhou Ze did not think he had... no, Zhou Ze did not think Xu Le's face had the ability to kill a female assassin.
The phone rang again. It was her call again.
He picked up the call after a slight hesitation.
"Hello."
"Xu Le, you asshole, how dare you hang up on me!"
His persona was normal now.
"What is it," Zhou Ze replied coldly.
"I went to KFC with my friend, and my wallet was stolen. Do you have any money? Just give me seven or eight thousand for emergencies."
Zhou Ze hung up the call again.
Mm,
It must be the faceless woman again.
Even if it was not the faceless woman, Zhou Ze was sure that she was the faceless woman in disguise when he heard 'seven or eight thousand'.
That was right.
That was it.
The phone rang again. Zhou Ze was a little annoyed. The middle-aged man who was reading frowned and looked at Zhou Ze. It was obvious that Zhou Ze's repeated ringing of the phone had disturbed his reading.
"I'm sorry, I'll mute it," Zhou Ze said.
The man lowered his head and continued reading.
However, his sister-in-law kept calling him. Zhou Ze had no choice but to pick up the call again.
"Xu Le, you can't leave me in the lurch. I can only ask you for the money. Can you consider it a loan?
I won't tell my parents about the Maserati woman, can I tell my sister? "
"You should tell her."
The sister-in-law was speechless.
F * * k, don't be so reckless. You still have a chance!
After paying all the fees last time, he only had a few thousand yuan left in his pocket. If he gave it all to her, he would have to starve.
"Xu Le, please, help me. I'll tell you the truth. I went to a disco with a sister, and then both of our wallets were stolen. I can't let my parents and my sister know about this, or they'll scold me to death.
"My sister still has to pay for the painting class tomorrow. She put the tuition fee in her wallet before this, so I can't delay it."
"Let her talk to her parents," Zhou Ze said.
"Her family isn't very well off. She earned the tuition fee from working during the winter break. Her family won't agree to give her money. Zhou Ze, consider it a loan from me. I'll pay you back when I get my pocket money next month."
Zhou Ze wanted to refuse,
At this moment,
The person on the other end of the phone said, "It's a deal. Our taxi is here. Fortunately, I still have some money in my WeChat, so I can afford a taxi. Otherwise, you won't be able to see me."
The phone was hung up, and two girls walked over from outside the bookstore.
The two of them should be classmates. Their clothes were considered normal, but it was obvious that they had deliberately put on makeup.
Girls at this age were like lotus blossoms out of the water. In fact, makeup was a burden, but unfortunately, they did not understand this at this age.
Zhou Ze stood up and walked over.
"Xu Le, brother-in-law, help me," the sister-in-law began to act coquettishly to Zhou Ze.
The girl beside her seemed a little timid. She stood beside her sister-in-law, looking very embarrassed and restrained.
Zhou Ze was thinking of a reason to refuse,
But at this moment,
The middle-aged man who was sitting there reading quietly suddenly stood up,
His aura began to become stronger,
The veins on his neck were bulging,
It was as if he was in heat!
Zhou Ze pressed down on his shoulder with one hand and held him down.
At the same time, he said to Bai Yingying, "Give me the money."
Bai Yingying took out 5,000 yuan from behind the counter and handed it to Zhou Ze.
Zhou Ze took the money with one hand and gave it to his sister-in-law. At the same time, he reminded her,
"You have to return it."
"Got it."
The sister-in-law who took the money looked at Bai Yingying and asked, "Who is she?"
"Shop assistant, your sister knows her," Zhou Ze explained.
"Oh, okay."
The sister-in-law was soft-hearted. She pulled the female classmate beside her and turned around to leave the bookstore.
The middle-aged man beside Zhou Ze was about to chase after her, but Zhou Ze turned around and pressed his hands in front of the glass window.
If this guy hadn't suddenly gone crazy, how could Zhou Ze have handed over the money so readily?
"Are you a dog that can't stop eating shit?"
Zhou Ze said in a deep voice, "I was still hesitating at first, but now there's nothing to hesitate about. I'll send you back to hell."
The middle-aged man was still struggling.
"You won't cry until you see the coffin, right?"
Zhou Ze was so angry that he laughed. He pointed at the glass window in front of him and said, "Look at what kind of hat you're wearing on your head."
The middle-aged man looked at the glass window and saw his "Reflection",
In the reflection..,
He was wearing a tall hat..,
The hat had the words "Beast in Human Clothing" written on it in black.
The middle-aged man was stunned,
He instantly stopped struggling,
He muttered,
