No. 7 Fish House

At noon, Xing Ting put the prepared meals on the table one by one, steamed sea bass, braised lion's head, fried cabbage, and green vegetable tofu soup. The tangy aroma made him swallow.

"I'm really talented, and I don't know how to cook without a teacher." After he praised himself, he remembered that He Fu hadn't gotten up until now, so he hurried to the side of the bookshelf and turned on the switch of the secret room, standing by the wooden door and shouted: " Boss He, it's time to eat."

It was quiet in the secret room.

Xing Ting thought, He Fu can really sleep, he has been in No. 24 Fish Restaurant for some time.During this period of time, I was like an old woman, buying vegetables and cooking every day, and was also responsible for changing the water for the fish tank.As for He Fu, he slept in the secret room all day, and moved to sleep on the sofa next to the fish tank after sleeping in the secret room. In short, [-] hours a day, he spent [-] hours in his dreams.

He asked He Fu: "Are you sleepy?"

He Fu's answer was straightforward: "Not sleepy, just boring."

Xing Ting rolled his eyes, sure enough, rich people don't have worries all day, because they don't have worries, life becomes boring, so they waste a lot of time in their dreams.

But what makes people feel strange is that He Fu sleeps every day, so how does he make money?Why does he always feel that this man has endless money to spend, and the decorations placed in this house can be pawned in a pawn shop for several months.

"Could it be possible to make money just by dreaming?" Xing Ting muttered, with his hand on the wooden door, with a slight push, he could enter He Fu's secret room to see what this man was doing.

The wooden door was pushed open by Xing Ting.

"what are you doing?"

But He Fu's voice came from behind Xing Ting. He was wearing a snow-white gown and stood behind Xing Ting. There was a hint of curiosity on that beautiful doll face. He was smiling, but this smile made Xing Ting Something creepy.

Xing Ting laughed and clapped his hands, "Well, I was cleaning the house. I saw a lot of dust here, so I wiped it, and accidentally pushed the door open."

He Fu never let him enter this secret room, but how could he not be curious as a person?Xing Ting has long wanted to open this door and go in to see what secrets are inside.

"Oh." He Fu said lightly, "Actually, there's nothing special in there, and you don't have to be so curious."

Xing Ting embarrassedly wanted to change the topic when his little thoughts were exposed.Seeing that He Fu was wearing brand new clothes, he couldn't help asking, "Where did you go today?"

"I went to see an old friend." He Fu said, "I sent him a letter."

"Who is it?" Xing Ting asked hurriedly, he couldn't believe that such a person would have friends.He divided He Fu into the area of ​​monsters in his heart, thinking that monsters would not have friends, and if they had friends, they would not necessarily be humans.

He Fu didn't answer, he went to sit at the dining table, looked at the sumptuous lunch, and smiled with satisfaction: "You did all of this?"

"Yes, I did it all." Xing Ting patted his chest proudly, his eyes were bright, as if he was waiting for He Fu to praise him.

He Fu nodded slightly: "Well, it's very pretty."

nice?

Isn't food supposed to be delicious?If looking good is also a way to praise someone's cooking skills, then he admits it.

Before Xing Ting could take out the chopsticks for He Fu to try, He Fu poured the braised lion's head into the fish tank. In the blink of an eye, the fish ate up the braised lion's head. The speed was astounding.

"They like your food very much." He Fu watched the fish finish eating contentedly, and then it picked up the steamed sea bass on the table. Xing Ting hurriedly walked over to stop him, for fear that he would pour the fish in too.

Unexpectedly, He Fu frowned: "Well... no fish wants to eat their own kind?"

Then, Xing Ting watched He Fu put his favorite work back on the table in disgust.

"Fish can't eat these things." Xing Ting was very angry, "You are reckless!"

He Fu sat obediently at the table and looked at him seriously: "But they are finished, and they are not ordinary fish."

"They are fish now, so they should eat what fish should eat." Xing Ting argued, "I spent a whole morning making these dishes carefully. You are really wasting too much."

"But, I brought you here to cook for my fish, and you can't cook for them, so what kind of cook should I ask you for?" He Fu said with a smile.

Xing Ting suddenly felt that the big boy in front of him seemed to have some mental problems. He even suspected that the He Fu who went in and out of Xu Garden with him a few days ago was not the same person as the He Fu in front of him.Otherwise, how could the tempers of the two be so different?

That He Fu looked very normal and smart.The He Fu in front of him is completely acting like a child.

He couldn't help but wonder if He Fu was playing tricks with him again, just like the last time He Fu turned one into 'Xing Ting. ’ Then the person in front of him also became ‘He Fu’ from a fish.

But He Fu suddenly said, "Don't think about messy things in your mind."

Being able to say this proves that he is not a fish.Xing Ting suddenly felt relieved, "I didn't think about messy things, but you don't waste my food in the future."

He Fu pushed the fish on the table towards Xing Ting: "Eat it, I don't like fish."

Xing Ting looked at He Fu in surprise: "Your real body is not really a fish, is it?"

"No." He Fu said, "I just don't need to eat. For me, the food in front of me has no attraction. These things are just like a piece of white paper in my mouth. My stomach and You are different, even if I do not eat for a few days, I will not feel hungry. In order to be able to integrate into your human life circle, I try to drink porridge... For me, porridge is enough."

Have porridge?No wonder He Fu only knows how to cook porridge. It turns out that he doesn't have to eat.

"Then you don't need to eat, why do you need to find a cook? Isn't this a waste of money?" Xing Ting spoke very straightforwardly. He felt that rich people are mentally ill. If he can one day not have to eat like He Fu, then Wouldn't it be possible to save a lot of money in one year?

He Fu pursed his lips and smiled: "You can think that I'm interested in you. I recruited a cook just to keep you in No. [-] Fish Restaurant."

Xing Ting, who was drinking soup, suddenly choked.

He hurriedly put down the bowl in his hand and protected his chest with both hands: "I'm not interested in men! I just like fair and beautiful women with big breasts, long legs."

He Fu didn't speak, just smiled.

Half of this sumptuous lunch was ruined by He Fu. Xing Ting silently mourned for the lost braised lion head in heart, and slowly enjoyed the steamed sea bass and stir-fried cabbage by himself.

He Fu went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of porridge for himself, and sat across from him to drink the porridge slowly, as if the porridge in that bowl was the most delicious food in the world.

Xing Ting, who was eating fish, sighed in his heart: For a person like He Fu, maybe he will never be able to taste delicious food in his life, and that would be a pity.

After lunch, Xing Ting took the bowls and chopsticks to the kitchen to wash, and returned to the main hall after busy work, and found that He Fu did not go back to the secret room to sleep for the first time.

He was sitting quietly on the sofa with a book in his hand, his well-behaved appearance looked like a ceramic doll.

Xing Ting walked over and sat on another sofa, while He Fu continued to read the book in his hand without raising his head.

He glanced at the title of the book - "Liaozhai"

Uh, He Fu is actually reading this kind of book?Please, you are scarier than Liao Zhai!

Xing Ting coughed lightly, but He Fu still didn't respond.

"Uh, isn't the boss going to bed today?" He likes to call him Boss He Fu, because the boss is the one who gives the money.

Only then did He Fu raise his head, noticed his presence, pinched a page of the book with his slender fingers, and turned it over.

"Someone is coming today."

Xing Ting felt a little strange, since he came to No. [-] fish restaurant, the door of No. [-] fish restaurant was closed every day, and no guests entered, let alone people, and even ghosts could not be seen.

He thought for a while and asked, "Is that the friend you went to visit today?"

He Fu nodded: "En."

"When will he come, do you need me to prepare dinner?" Xing Ting wanted to be recognized for his cooking skills, but the person in front of him was not interested in food at all. If He Fu's friends wanted to come, they could eat his cooking It's definitely not bad to give one of my meals.

But He Fu said: "No, I don't think that person wants to see me at all, let alone sit at the same table with me for dinner."

"Why?" Xing Ting asked.

"Because he hates me."

Xing Ting saw He Fu sitting on the sofa turning a book of "Liao Zhai" from the first page to the last page, and the sky outside No. [-] Fish Restaurant changed from noon to dusk.The person he was waiting for never knocked on the door of Fish House No. [-]...

Watching He Fu pick up the second book from the bookshelf and sit back on the sofa, Xing Ting suddenly felt sorry for him.

Before he came to the No. [-] fish restaurant, He Fu was alone facing a few fish that could not speak and a pile of books.No one spoke to him, and in this silent room, it seemed that time had stood still.

Just when Xing Ting was about to enter the kitchen to prepare dinner, the door of No. [-] Fish Restaurant rang.

He Fu is still looking down at the book in his hand, as if nothing in the world can disturb him.

"The door is open, please come in."

After a while, Xing Ting finally saw the first guest of No. [-] Fish Restaurant.

"Captain Yang Mingzhen, stay safe and sound." He Fu raised his head and showed a very friendly smile to the guest.

However, Yang Mingzhen's expression suddenly changed as if he had seen a ghost, "You are really alive!"

"Not only am I alive, but I also wrote a letter to Captain Yang." He Fu closed the book in his hand, "A person who can write letters is of course a living person."

"No, it's impossible...I obviously..." Yang Mingzhen wanted to say, he shot and killed this man.

But He Fu interrupted him first, "Captain Yang obviously saw me dead, right? But I was lucky enough to survive, I survived under the gun."

"For those who survived, you should express your blessings, right?" He Fu showed a somewhat aggrieved expression, "But Captain Yang, as my friend, took so long to visit me after receiving the letter, I am a little sad ah."

Xing Ting was very surprised to see the change in He Fu's facial expression.It would be a pity if this person does not become an actor.

But Yang Mingzhen walked up to He Fu in two steps at a time, grabbed He Fu by the collar, and said viciously: "You are not him at all! Don't play tricks in front of me, you can escape once at gunpoint , I don't believe you will escape a second time!"

After speaking, Yang Mingzhen took out a gun from behind and aimed it at He Fu's head.

Xing Ting was dumbfounded, is this a scene where old friends reunite?Why does it feel like an enemy meeting, a life-and-death struggle!

He Fu smiled: "Captain Yang wants to beat me to death, but this time there is a witness present. If I die, please Xing Ting, please go to the police station to report the case for me, and say that the former deputy captain of the police force was killed by Yang Ming. Captain Zhen shot and killed him because Captain Yang Mingzhen was very unhappy to see me alive."

"Ah?" Xing Ting looked confused, what is this all about?

Yang Mingzhen said angrily: "You are not He Fu at all, you are just a monster that survived! It is only right and proper for me to kill you and eliminate harm for the people."

"Oh? It seems that Captain Yang is very confident about the case of Zhang Suru's disappearance. I am writing to you to ask you to discuss the case. Since you don't want to catch the murderer, then shoot me." He Fu closed his eyes. Eyes, mouth still with a slight smile.

Yang Mingzhen immediately let He Fu go when he heard about the "Zhang Suru's Disappearance Case".

"Do you know why Zhang Suru disappeared?"

He Fu straightened his collar, and said calmly, "Didn't you say that I am a monster, and monsters naturally understand monsters."

"Don't fucking talk nonsense! If you dare to mess around, I'll kill you with one shot today!" Yang Mingzhen always kept his word.

This morning, he got up early to check the information at the police station, wanting to know about Zhang Suru's disappearance.Who knows, Cui Liang gave him a second letter, which said: Captain Yang, will you be well in a couple of years?Ah Fu is in poor health. I heard that you have been troubled by the case of the Zhang family recently. I invite you to come to my home to discuss one or two. The address is Yuguan No. [-], Chiyun Road.

He thought it was someone's prank, so he didn't want to pay attention.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Suru's disappearance case was taken over, something happened to Zhang's family again.

Two pitch-black figures appeared in Zhang Suru's boudoir!After inspection, the two figures were Wu Lan and Xie Yue, the servants of the Zhang family.

Both of these two are Zhang Suru's maids, and now, like Zhang Suru, their whereabouts are unknown.

Yang Mingzhen took the letter and decided to go to No. [-] Fish Restaurant to have a try.If someone was playing a prank, then he would arrest this person and lock him up for ten and a half months. If this letter was true, perhaps these weird cases could be solved with the help of that person.

Because two years ago, he had seen the ability of this person, and this person did have some abilities that ordinary people did not possess.

Yang Mingzhen still remembers that two years ago, he went to arrest the criminal with He Fu, the deputy captain of the police station. Unexpectedly, the criminal seemed to be possessed by a demon, and his whole body changed. People rushed.The strength of the criminals prevented them from approaching, and all ten policemen who went to arrest them were killed, only He Fu and him remained.

At that time, he was just a small police officer, following behind the vice-captain He Fu, He Fu let him hide in the dark because of his foot injury.

He watched He Fu being bitten crazily by the crazy criminal, and at the moment the criminal's hand passed through He Fu's heart, he raised his gun and killed the criminal and his savior.

Because at that time is the best time to kill criminals, and He Fu also lost his life.

He returned to the police station alone, holding the gun in trembling hands.He still remembered what the deputy captain said when he handed the gun to him.

"The meaning of guns is to protect, not to kill."

Because of that shot, he was promoted from a small policeman to the captain of the police station, and everyone praised him very much.Praise him as a hero for saving the child from criminals.

He sat in the captain's seat, replaying the clip of himself shooting in his mind over and over again.

He did shoot, twice, one killing the criminal and one killing the vice-captain.

Instead of telling the truth to people, he concealed the fact.Because, even he himself was not sure whether the deputy captain was a human or a monster at that time.

When the police went to collect the corpse, they found that He Fu's corpse had rolled down the cliff, leaving no bones left.

Only then did Yang Mingzhen cry out.

After half a year, everything returned to calm, and he kept silent about the previous things.Suddenly one day, someone pushed open the door of Yang Mingzhen's office.

The man was wearing a clean cloth shirt and said to him, "Yang Mingzhen, I'm back."

Everyone in the police station thought that He Fu had just disappeared, and since he was back, they should treat him warmly.But only Yang Mingzhen was afraid...

He felt that the person who came back was not He Fu, but a strange creature whose body was occupied by a monster!

But this alien is the same as ordinary people in the police station. He can eat, sleep, laugh, communicate with others, and even solve cases.His mind is smarter than ordinary people, and his eyes can find clues that others can't see.

Yang Mingzhen was so frightened that she went crazy...

This person is not He Fu!Absolutely not. In the past, He Fu didn't like to laugh at all, he was very stubborn and stuck to the rules.The man in front of him was too successful and too unsuccessful in his pretense.

So, Yang Mingzhen took the gun he used to have, and asked He Fu to go to that cliff.

He pointed a gun at He Fu's heart and said, "I don't care what you are, anyway, I want you to leave the police station immediately."

He Fu looked up at him: "What if I say no?"

Yang Mingzhen said, "Then I will kill you."

He shot, but the shot missed He Fu's heart.Because after several months of contact, he found that this He Fu had no evil intentions, and he was really helping the police solve the case.

It's just that Yang Mingzhen couldn't believe a person who came back from the dead, and he would never believe it.

That was the second time he had killed this man...

But today, two years later, this person still stood in front of him and said to him, "Don't come here without any problems."
