No. 7 Fish House
Chapter 11 The House of Shadows 01
The door of Fish Restaurant No. [-] was slightly opened, revealing a narrow gap. Xing Ting stood outside the door and looked inside curiously through the gap.A gust of wind blew the door completely open, as if welcoming him.
Xing Ting swallowed, he looked at the piece of paper in his hand, No. [-] fish restaurant is recruiting a cook.He is a lazy person all day long, and he is also a thief. Except for the stealing skills of a three-legged cat who flies over the roof and walls, he has no special skills in his body.However, he still has a lot of research on eating.Because he was in Julelou, his mouth was made very tricky by the good wine and food. If he ate too much good food, he felt that everything in this world was tasteless, so he began to study his "Xing" 's recipe'.
After several years of training in cooking the kitchen, Xing Ting finally has some superficial level of the masters in Jule Building.
Since Fish Restaurant No. [-] lacks a cook, let him give it a try. It's not bad to be a hungry ghost who lives and dies for delicious food.
In the thunderstorm evening, No. [-] fish house looked very lonely, when a strong wind blew, the wooden door behind Xing Ting made a loud bang, as if it was staged a terrifying scene in line with this dark room.
"Hello, I'm here to apply for a cook." Xing Ting shouted loudly towards the inside.
No one answered him, maybe the thunderstorm outside covered his voice, so Xing Ting decided to walk inside to see if anyone was there.
Going around the screen, he saw a faint candlelight, two white candles burning on the table.The swaying flames were like two small hands, beckoning him to walk over.
Another gust of wind blew, and the door of No. [-] Fish Restaurant closed with a bang, and at the same time, the two candles on the table were also extinguished, and the whole room was completely plunged into darkness.
Xing Ting was suddenly a little scared, and the fear spread from the bottom of his heart to his whole body.
He suddenly remembered a terrible legend, which was often mentioned by the old people in the tea city to scare their disobedient children.There is a library at No. [-], Chiyun Road. The library is only open at night. When it is open, two white candles must be lit at the door to summon the soul.When the candle is extinguished, a soul will enter the library, and then the owner of the library will appear to help the lonely soul realize its wish.
I heard that this weird master will also help people realize their wishes, but the reward you have to pay him is half life.
Because the owner of this library likes to raise fish, this library is also called - Fish House No. [-]!
Xing Ting wailed in a low voice: "I wouldn't be so unlucky to crash into this ghostly place?"
He murmured in his heart, hoping it was just the same name, maybe this No. [-] fish restaurant is a restaurant.After all, only restaurants need cooks.
"What are you afraid of? You even dare to break into the cemetery, and you are afraid of this kind of place?" Xing Ting cheered for himself.
He walked a few more steps inside and saw a faint light, through which he could clearly see the furnishings in No. [-] fish restaurant.
There are four rows of bookshelves in this small main hall, and each row of bookshelves is tightly attached to the wall. In the middle of the empty space, there is a huge fish tank.There is a light at the bottom of the fish tank, and the green light shines from the bottom, making the fish tank look a little leaky.
Xing Ting counted, and there were exactly seven fish, no more, no less!
Could it be that these weird-looking fish can fulfill people's wishes?
No, it can't be!
Xing Ting wanted to run away, he couldn't stay in this ghostly place for a moment.
"Is it the new cook?"
A gentle voice came from behind, which startled Xing Ting, he had seriously checked that there was no one in the room just now.Could this person who appeared suddenly be a ghost?
He turned his back to the man and said, "No... no, I was passing by and went to the wrong place."
"You can meet even if you make a mistake, maybe it's fate."
As soon as the voice fell, the orange light came on, illuminating the No. [-] fish restaurant.
Xing Ting mustered up the courage to turn around, and he saw a row of bookshelves being removed, behind which was clearly a secret room, and the voice came from inside.
A person came out of the secret room. He was wearing a brown nightgown, lazily holding a candlestick, and a red Nine Vehicles Vajra Knot on his white and slender right hand, which was extremely eye-catching.
He lifted his jaw slightly, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Long time no see, Xing Ting."
Xing Ting was shocked: "He Fu! Why are you here?"
After finishing speaking, he suddenly remembered what Yang Mingzhen had said to him in front of the gate of the police station.
Xing Ting took two steps back and looked at He Fu with some fear: "Are you a ghost or a human? I went to the police station to look for you, and they said you were dead, dead for two years!"
Holding the candlestick, He Fu walked towards the fish tank, and said as he walked, "I am indeed dead, but I am alive again. For those who have been resurrected from the dead and gained new life, shouldn't you be happy?"
He spoke very seriously, with a soft tone, and a pure and harmless smile appeared on the doll's face, but Xing Ting felt creepy when he saw it.
"How can the dead be resurrected, you are a ghost!" Xing Ting said with certainty.
He Fu smiled, and sat down on the sofa next to the fish tank.
"I'm not He Fu." He said, "The real police officer He Fu is dead. I am the owner of No. [-] Fish Restaurant. Before he died, he asked me to help him find out the truth, so I turned back to him in his appearance. Police station. Until one day, Yang Mingzhen found out that I was a fake, and he drove me away."
Although He Fu spoke very seriously, his expression was also very natural, without the look of a liar.But Xing Ting felt that the person in front of him was a master liar, he deceived him again and again with all the lies.
He Fu seemed to see through his mind, and said, "I can prove that I didn't lie to you."
He stood up, left the sofa and walked towards the tall fish tank, picked out a small red fish from it and held it in his hand.He whispered to the fish: "Can you do a trick for this big brother, and I will give you food in a while."
The little red fish waggled its tail in He Fu's hands, and he turned to Xing Ting and said, "Close your eyes for a while, it's still young and will be shy."
Although Xing Ting didn't know what He Fu wanted to do, he still closed his eyes obediently.
"All right."
In such a short moment, there was another person in front of Xing Ting, who looked exactly like himself, but this Xing Ting didn't wear clothes. 'Xing Ting' turned around shyly, He Fu took out a suit of clothes from somewhere and put them on 'Xing Ting'.
Xing Ting himself was dumbfounded, what kind of trick is this?That fish turned into him, and even had the shy instinct of a human being?
He Fu said: "It can't speak yet, if it grows up a bit, it will be exactly like you."
"This... this is too unbelievable." Judge Xing has never seen such a real trick at his age, and he even has the urge to kneel down to He Fu and beg him to take him as his apprentice. If he learns this trick, In the future, if you cheat money on the street, if you cheat one person, you will not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life.
He asked in a low voice, "Would you teach me this trick, it's just wonderful."
He Fu smiled: "This is not a trick, it is a fact that you have never seen before."
"There are still many hidden aliens in this city. Aliens are different from ordinary people. Their way of survival is more difficult than ordinary people. Once they are caught by hunters, they will end up being refined into elixir, or they will be killed. Cannibalism."
"In order to hide, they chose to turn themselves into a fish and hide in the No. [-] fish restaurant on Chiyun Road."
Xing Ting's brain couldn't turn around for a while, he looked at He Fu like an idiot, and after a while he said: "You mean that you don't raise fish in the fish tank, but people?"
"To be precise, they are not human beings, but aliens." He Fu corrected, "They have abilities that normal people do not have, but it is difficult for them to exist in the world like normal people."
Ability that normal people don't have?
Xing Ting suddenly remembered the 'face-changing technique' on his body, which was his secret. Every year when the winter solstice came, his face would be wrapped in a cocoon, and it would take three days for his face to break out of the cocoon.For this reason, he is very afraid of walking in the crowd, he is afraid of being driven out by others as a different kind, so he is always alone.
If the alien that He Fu said was someone like him, would he be kept in this big fish tank by He Fu like a fish?
He imagined in his mind that He Fu was wearing this nightgown, sitting leisurely in front of the fish tank, taking him out of the fish tank from time to time, letting himself play tricks for him, and suddenly felt his scalp tingling.
"What are you thinking about?" He Fu leaned on the sofa and looked at Xing Ting lazily.
"No, it's nothing." Xing Ting came back to his senses and found that the 'Xing Ting' that the little red fish turned into just now had disappeared, "Where did that person go?"
He Fu pointed to the fish tank: "Where, it seems to like being in the water more than being a human being."
Sure enough, the little red fish was already swimming freely in the fish tank, and it spit a bubble towards Xing Ting, as if to show its favor to him.
"It seems to like you very much." He Fu looked at Xing Ting, "So, do you want to stay and be a cook?"
Xing Ting pointed to his nose, "Me? You are not a restaurant here, why do you need a cook?"
He Fu's reason was simple and straightforward: "Because I don't know how to cook."
Xing Ting: ...
He thought of the bowl of white porridge that He Fu cooked, it seemed that this person was really not very good at cooking.
"I've seen it, and no one wants you, so it's perfect for you to stay with me." He Fu said with a smile, "Because my money is enough to support you for a lifetime."
A man said to himself, "I will support you forever", Xing Ting actually felt his face was a little hot, and his heartbeat was a little faster. He didn't know if it was because of the money or because of him.
"Bah!" Xing Ting vomited fiercely against his own thoughts, "The one who gave the money is the uncle, okay, what do you like to eat, Uncle He?"
"It will be all right."
He Fu is a good-natured baby who is not picky about food. He drinks porridge all year round, like a man made of water.Because he can't cook anything except porridge.
When the fish in the fish tank heard that Xing Ting was willing to stay, they all wagged their tails and spit bubbles.They can finally have delicious food, Xing Ting is simply a hero who saves fish from fire and water!
Xing Ting took the money for buying vegetables from He Fu, carried the vegetable basket like a middle-aged woman, and walked to the vegetable market with her buttocks twisted.
Before leaving, he looked at Lan Hua and asked He Fu: "Why did I suddenly become such a motherfucker?"
He Fu coughed lightly: "It may be that the human face is too powerful. Even though your body no longer has it, you will not be able to change this posture for a while."
Xing Ting took the money and kicked it in his pocket, stomped his feet angrily, pointed at the orchid and scolded coquettishly: "I hate it!"
Then he slammed the door and left, leaving only He Fu sitting in front of the fish tank laughing.
"Little fish, is it fun for me to give you your new pet?"
The seven fish swim around happily, and the lonely and boring Yusheng finally has a good show to watch.
It seemed that their master hadn't smiled like this for a long time.
Looks like there's going to be a delicious meal tonight.
Xing Ting, who shuttled back and forth in the vegetable market, had only one thought in his heart, he found a shelter.As He Fu said, aliens will be hunted and killed by hunters, and as long as they are in No. [-] fish house, no hunter will dare to break in.
Since life can be guaranteed to be safe, and money can be spent on it, what's the point of being a little mother?
Fuck it, twisting means twisting the taste, flirting means flirting to the fullest.
Xing Ting swallowed, he looked at the piece of paper in his hand, No. [-] fish restaurant is recruiting a cook.He is a lazy person all day long, and he is also a thief. Except for the stealing skills of a three-legged cat who flies over the roof and walls, he has no special skills in his body.However, he still has a lot of research on eating.Because he was in Julelou, his mouth was made very tricky by the good wine and food.
