By the time the surgery ended, it was already evening. Zhou Ze saw his sister-in-law and mother-in-law in the ward from afar, but he did not go over to greet them.
It was better if he did not show his face. He did not want his father-in-law to collapse from anger just after he was rescued.
Returning to Doctor Lin's office, Zhou Ze opened the door to the inner room and lay down on the bed.
To be honest, Zhou Ze himself did not know whether the success of the surgery was due to his own efforts or the "Promises". Perhaps, it was both.
He could not pull his father-in-law over to try again.
Not long after, Doctor Lin pushed open the door and walked in. Zhou Ze was lying on her bed. She was not surprised at all.
"Are you busy?"
Zhou Ze asked.
"I've asked my vice president to handle the reception.
As for the volunteer clinic, I'll start preparing for it tomorrow. "Doctor Lin sat down by the bed and said," I haven't taken a shower yet. I'll go take a shower first. "
After saying that,
She went into the bathroom inside,
Then..,
The sound of water could be heard.
Zhou Ze turned around and looked at the bathroom that was covered by the matte. He remembered that when he was at Doctor Lin's house, he seemed to have seen Doctor Lin take a shower through the door.
He only remembered that the scenery was good at that time.
After a while..,
The bathroom door was pushed open,
Doctor Lin walked out.
Zhou Ze sat up abruptly,
This..,
Did he put all the clothes he changed in the bathroom?
Aren't you afraid of getting your clothes wet when you take a shower!
Why are you so lazy..,
Can't you put it at the head of the bed..,
Don't you want to take a few more steps?
At this moment, Doctor Lin had already changed into her professional attire and walked out.
The imaginary scene of wrapping her body in a bath towel and walking out in the steamy environment did not happen.
"Are you hungry?"
Doctor Lin asked.
"Not hungry."
Zhou Ze shook his head and did not hide the disappointment on his face.
Even if they couldn't be husband and wife, they could at least be good friends, right?
Wasn't it normal for good friends to see each other's clothes exposed?
At this moment, Doctor Lin walked to the head of the bed and took out a pair of white stockings. She stood in front of Zhou Ze and put them on naturally.
Zhou Ze just watched quietly, watching her put them on.
Sometimes, just looking at it was a wonderful enjoyment.
Something so beautiful and exquisite that you couldn't bear to tear it apart.
Beautiful, very beautiful. The movement of putting them on, the texture after lifting them up..,
Boss Zhou's breathing began to become rapid.
And at this time,
Zhou Ze's phone rang.
Why does it always stop working when I need to use it?
But now, wasn't it malfunctioning?
Zhou Ze picked up his phone. It was a call from Lawyer An.
"Hello, Boss."
"What happened?"
"There's something. You'd better come back now."
Lawyer an's tone was very serious. This meant that something serious had indeed happened.
Zhou Ze gritted his teeth,
He stood up,
Looking at Doctor Lin, who had already put on her white stockings,
He said apologetically,
"There's something urgent, I'll go back first."
Doctor Lin nodded and did not say anything.
Although she had already asked someone to book a restaurant by the Hao River, it was a place with a good atmosphere.
His gaze lingered on Doctor Lin for a moment before he reluctantly turned around and left the office. He entered the elevator and subconsciously took a deep breath after the elevator door closed.
He closed his eyes.
His mind still seemed to be filled with white legs and white silk.
Boss Zhou never felt that he was a saint,
In his previous life, he was an ordinary man, and in this life, he was an ordinary ghost.
It was a lie that he was not tempted, and it was also a lie that he was not impulsive.
But the price of making a mistake was a little high.
It was big enough to change his future life plan, and even his current life.
He didn't know what would happen if lawyer an didn't call.
Perhaps.
Something would really happen.
I just saved your father.
You repay me with your body.
It was reasonable.
You and I were willing.
But if you had to eat everything and shamelessly say, "We don't owe each other.".
Boss Zhou was in a bit of a dilemma.
Even when he drove the car onto the overpass, the heat on Zhou Ze's body still did not fade.
At this time, perhaps taking lawyer an's super big cup and drinking a few mouthfuls of expired instant coffee might have a miraculous effect.
When he finally drove back to the entrance of the bookstore, Zhou Ze's mind gradually returned.
There was a large group of people at the entrance of the bookstore.
Zhou Ze subconsciously thought that something had happened in the bookstore, but when he took a closer look, he realized that something was wrong. It was in the pharmacy next door to the bookstore.
The police were already cordoning off the scene to maintain order, but from time to time, there were still shouts and the sound of things being thrown.
Zhou Ze pushed through the crowd and squeezed in. He saw that inside the pharmacy, there was a person who had already been tied up by the police. It was a well-built man. His hands were already handcuffed, but he was still colliding non-stop. A few police officers were actually unable to hold him down.
Lawyer an stood in the pharmacy. When he saw Zhou Ze return, he took the initiative to walk over.
"Rabies?"
Zhou Ze said.
This man looked like he was suffering from rabies.
However, he felt that something was wrong. If it was just rabies, lawyer an should not have called him to come over.
Could it be that lawyer an was so bored that he said, "Ahahahaha, Boss, I'm here to see rabies. Sigh, it's so interesting!"
It was impossible.
"It's not rabies."
As he spoke, lawyer an lowered his voice and whispered into Zhou Ze's ear, "Boss, look at his eyes."
Zhou Ze observed carefully. There was actually a faint layer of green in the depths of that person's eyes.
"His soul has been hooked," lawyer an said.
"One of the three souls and seven spirits of the soul has been hooked away. It's just like when you surgeons perform a resection. But the soul is different. After a part of it is cut off, the person will go crazy."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure. There's this kind of punishment in hell. It cuts off people's souls, makes them suffer, and makes them go crazy. I've seen it with my own eyes. This guy is definitely not rabies!"
"Is it aimed at us?"
"Uh, it doesn't seem like it. This guy is the owner of a small clothing store on the pedestrian street. He was originally fine, but he suddenly went crazy. He was sent to our pharmacy by the store's staff, but it became more and more difficult to control.
"Fangfang called the police. The people from the police station just arrived."
"Ahhh!!!
Ahhh!!!
Ahhh!!! "
The man was still struggling. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. No matter how the police officers pressed him, he could break free. He was like a bull that would never run out of strength.
Many people nearby were taking out their phones to take photos and watch the show. The flow of people on South Street was already very high, and in the face of such a scene, everyone's enthusiasm was also very high.
"Ahhh!!!"
At this moment..,
The guy who was already tied up suddenly threw off the police officer on him and rushed to the shop door with a crazed scream.
"Ahhhhh!!!!"
"Run!!!!"
The onlookers who had been watching the show and taking photos and videos to upload to Weibo and Tik Tok were so scared that they quickly ran back. Many people directly fell to the ground.
Zhou Ze took a step forward and held this guy back. At the same time, his fingernails grew a little longer and pierced into the other party's skin.
The other party trembled a few times and fell to the ground with a "Plop". However, he did not faint. His eyes were still wide open. His body was temporarily paralyzed, but his restless heart would never stop!
"Tie him up. Tie his legs too!"
Zhou Ze shouted to the two police officers over there.
The police immediately came over and went up together. They tied up the man's legs as well. In order to prevent him from biting his tongue, they even took the rag that Fangfang had placed on the counter and stuffed the man's mouth.
At this moment, the police from the police station arrived. The ambulance also arrived. The police began to disperse the crowd and carried the man into the ambulance.
In order to prevent him from causing a ruckus in the ambulance, two police officers also sat in the ambulance.
"Is this okay?"
Zhou Ze asked lawyer an beside him as he watched the person being sent away by the ambulance.
"It's just that a part of his soul has been cut off. It's not like he's mutated into a superman. It's fine. Moreover, he was able to toss and turn just now. It can be considered as overdrawing the potential of his body.
"Do you have any clues about this matter?"
Zhou Ze did not believe that lawyer an was just here to watch the show.
"Oh, Old Zhang just came. I asked him to go to the clothing store to investigate.
"In short, I think this matter shouldn't be directed at our bookstore. It might just be a coincidence."
"You're so sure?"
"You don't go out to socialize and are too lazy to mingle in the circle, so you don't know what kind of commotion we caused when we destroyed the local ghost messengers in Xuzhou last month.
Who would dare to come to our Tongcheng to dance at this time? "
"But Yin Si hasn't said anything yet."
"Yin Si is very lazy. No explanation is the best explanation."
Lawyer an clapped his hands and said,
"Before the police came, I checked that guy and sensed his soul.
Guess what I found? "
"Don't keep me in suspense."
"That soul was cut so neatly and neatly. It was exactly the same as the people I saw being tortured in the Netherworld's Punishment Hall in the past."
Lawyer an said in the end,
He couldn't help but laugh,
As if he still felt that it was ridiculous, he added,
"F * ck, it can't be that some penal officer from the Netherworld's Punishment Hall came up, right?"
..
When the bookstore was halfway through dinner, Old Zhang came. It was such a coincidence that Zhou Ze thought that he had come in at the right time to freeload!
"What are the results of the investigation?"
Lawyer an asked immediately.
"Oh, here it is."
Old Zhang gestured for the old priest to help him scoop rice while he took out his notebook. He pointed at the records and said,
"According to the inquiries of his family and the employees in the shop, the patient first showed signs of discomfort a week ago. Recently, it has become more and more serious. However, after going to the hospital for a checkup, there was nothing wrong. He was able to work as usual until today.
"Also..,
According to the feedback I got from a few big hospitals in Tongcheng..,
This is already the week..,
This was the third case of suspected rabies in Tongcheng.
Their information is all here. "
As he spoke, Old Zhang pushed the notebook in front of Lawyer an. Then, he immediately took the rice bowl and began to eat.
Lawyer an carefully looked at the information of the other two patients. As he looked at them, he handed them to Zhou Ze and said, "You're a professional. Are these two people rabies?"
"What can you tell from the medical records?" Zhou Ze said disapprovingly.
"Squeak squeak squeak!!!"
At this moment..,
Monkey cried out.
The old priest understood and stood up first. He said, "Oh, business is here."
As he spoke, the old priest took out cow tears and wiped them on his eyes, preparing to entertain the guests.
Who knew that just as the old priest walked to the door..,
He immediately screamed,
"Damn!
What the hell is this! "
"Nonsense, it must be a ghost."
Lawyer an teased. Then, he also turned his head to look outside the door. Then, he was stunned.
There was a man's ghost standing at the door. He was wearing a yellow coat and white sneakers. These were not important, because the ghosts who came to the door wore all kinds of styles and styles.
Most importantly..,
This ghost..,
Only half of his face..,
Half of his face from the center of his eyebrows to the other side seemed to have been neatly cut off, but this ghost did not notice it at all,
He only timidly pushed open the door of the bookstore,
With half his mouth and half his lips he asked,
