Those who work in the coffin shop

Ah Chou died.

It's been less than two years since she said she got married.

But she is dead.

It was a rainy day, and there was a tragic car accident at the intersection.

Ah Chou was the victim of the car accident.

She was distended and lying in a pool of blood.

She opened her eyes, pupils full of sadness and despair.

Her long hair was disheveled, wet from the rain, her face was pale, her mouth was open and she gasped in pain, shouting over and over again was the child in her womb.

Her beautiful face was also stained with blood, the blood merged with the rain, flowing down her lips, her chin, slowly flowing down, flowing over her protruding belly, and then the blood dripping from her thighs combined.

The whole world became bright red.

In the ear, there are people's exclamation, the sharp whistle of the car, all kinds of clamor, and upset.

Ah Chou protected her stomach, she struggled to stay awake, she told herself not to be afraid, the ambulance will come soon, don't be afraid, the ambulance will come soon...

She raised her eyes.

Suddenly, the world was silent.

In the frame of the picture, she seemed to see a white figure slowly walking towards her.

That figure is what she yearns for and she is familiar with it. In the pattering rain, he has the most beautiful face in the world, his footsteps are light, as if he is stepping on hell, his figure is slender and tall, and when he stands in front of her, there is even a smile in her eyes. Just as stupid as when I first met him when I was young.

She never thought that her last meeting with him would be like this.

Bao Si stared at her condescendingly, his dark pupils were like the night, and no waves could be seen.

"Meow……"

With a thin cat meow, Atu stood gently on Bao Si's shoulder with sad eyes.

Ah Chou was only shocked for a second, and then she showed a relieved smile.

"Boss, do I not need an ambulance anymore?"

Bo Si looked at her, "Why do you ask that?"

There were blood and tears on Ah Chou's face, but she still smiled, just like she did when she was a child: "Because the boss has never left that store... Appearing at this moment means that my time has come... Do you want to see it last?" Look at me, don't you..."

"Do you want to live?"

Ah Chou shook his head, his eyes misty: "Living...too tired, too bitter... This is the price I should pay. Didn't the boss say that becoming beautiful is in exchange for life..."

Bo Si clenched his fists, "I can let you live."

Ah Chou smiled slightly and said: "No need, boss... I am a human being, let me experience death like a normal human being. If I live on, I will no longer be a normal human being, and you still refuse to accept me, then I will die." What's the point of living..."

Bo Si lightly let go of his hand.

"Meow……"

Ah Tu yelled again.

Small, as if whimpering.

"Boss, I only have one wish, can you promise me?"

Ah Chou stroked his belly, already angry.

"You said."

"I can't do it anymore... But I want to give birth to the child. He is my flesh and blood. I want him to live in this world at least once..."

Ah Chou looked at him beggingly, just like the night many years ago when she cried and begged him to save Ah Tu, with tears in her eyes, she stretched out her bloody hand, desperately hooked the corner of his clothes, and murmured in a low voice: "Yes!" I... the boss... let my child..."

Bao Si bent down and squatted in front of her, "Life is hard, why let him live?"

Ah Chou smiled and said: "Maybe...the world he sees with his eyes will be different from what I see. He is an independent life. I can decide my own life, but I cannot decide his... ...Let him go his own way in the future...Maybe, he will be like me, just like I met my boss, and I will also meet someone who will make him feel happy..."

As he said that, Ah Chou's brows suddenly frowned, "But, boss, I have no price, I can give it to you..."

Bo Si said flatly: "Then let the child himself be the price."

A Chou looked at him blankly.

Bao Si chuckled, "I'm lonely by myself, so I'll let him stay with me from now on."

"In this way, can he live?"

"as you wish."

"Boss... ah..."

Bao Si's hand covered A Chou's stomach, a flash of crystal blue light flashed, and A Chou suddenly cried out in pain. This kind of pain was like a woman's labor pain before giving birth. A Chou knew that Bao Si was helping her, so she wanted to After giving birth, the broken amniotic fluid spread wildly from under her skirt along with the blood, Ah Chou's whole face was wet with sweat, "Ah..."

"Take a deep breath and push hard."

Bo Si calmly guided her.

"what……"

A Chou gritted his teeth, raised his head and exclaimed.

She felt something peel from her.

The jade pendant on the neck gave off a faint white light.

In the next second, a wrinkled baby appeared in Bo Si's arms.

The baby was born abnormally, and it didn't cry, make noise, or breathe in Bao Si's arms. Bo Si lowered his head and bit his fingertips lightly. A drop of bright red blood fell on the baby's lips. Soon, a faint tingle appeared. red light.

Inside the barrier, the little baby cried loudly and powerfully.

"Meow~"

Ah Tu opened his round eyes, curiously looking at the little thing in Bao Si's arms.

Ah Chou gave birth to the baby with his last strength, but he was already exhausted and dying.

"Want to see him, it's a boy."

Ah Chou closed his eyes wearily, "No... as long as he can live, that's fine... If he grows up, please tell him, the boss, that life is very hard, but you have to live strong, because as long as you live, I will meet a lot of wonderful people and things that I never thought of...just like when I met Ah Tu and the boss..."

"I'll tell him."

Ah Chou raised the corner of his mouth and said softly: "Boss, you are really a good man... After I die, leave my jade pendant to him. Grandma said that the jade pendant will protect me. Now, I want to use my jade pendant to protect me." child..."

"Die like this, do you really not regret it? Don't you resent anyone? You don't want to know why you died?"

In the pool of blood, Ah Chou's eyelashes trembled slightly, she looked tired, and said: "I really don't want to know... resentment is a very tiring thing... I don't regret it, because in the end, I can see you again." You... If you say, I still have any wish, it is the next life, I want to be reincarnated as a cat, so that I can stay in the shop like Ah Tu... always...by your side... "

On that rainy night, Ah Chou closed his eyes forever.

Ah Tu jumped off Bao Si's shoulder.

It circles around Ah Chou with a "meow meow meow", sticking out its barbed tongue from time to time to lick A Chou's blood-stained face.

Ah Tu cried and cried out in grief. It stayed by Ah Chou's side, unwilling to leave for a long time.

The boy in Bo Si's arms was still crying.

He is so small that he doesn't understand anything.

Bao Si walked up to Ah Chou, who looked peaceful, as if he had fallen asleep.

He took off the jade pendant around her neck. The jade pendant was stained with blood and still glowing faintly.

Looking at her, Bao Si couldn't help stretching out his hand to lightly touch her skin that used to have a birthmark.

Ah Tu knew that the master was saying goodbye to Ah Chou.

Only this time, instead of calling her A Chou, he called her by her first name.

first.And for the last time.

"Early summer..."

After going back that day, Ah Tu also returned to Meow Star at night.

Ah Tu died of natural causes, after all, he was an old cat.

Bo Si simply handled its corpse without showing any expression.

He still receives many guests.

The store was the same as before, with only one table, one sofa, and one boss left.

Without the natural enemy of Ah Tu, in the corner, there was a lonely little cockroach biting its wings and crying silently, only blamed itself for not knowing how to cherish it at the beginning.

That night, Bo Si looked at the baby for a long time.

The little baby is very cute. It is said that boys are more like their mothers. This is true, he looks very similar to Ah Chou who has no birthmark.

However, this child is still a human being after all, and if he is a human being, he cannot grow up beside him. He still wants to send him to the human world. That is the world he should be in, the life he should live, and A Chou. Same.

When he looked at the little baby, the little baby also opened its eyes slightly and looked at him. His left eye was different from ordinary people, and could see many things that ordinary people couldn't see.

This eye is a blessing or a curse for him. Will he be able to face this dirty world with strength like Ah Chou?

This child's painful life is doomed, and in a sense, it is also caused by him.

Bao Si smiled lightly, and Ah Chou's birthmark appeared in his palm. He used the birthmark as a seal to cover the baby's immature face.

Just covering his left eye.

In this way, when he grows up, his pain will only come from his appearance.

But, can he survive those pains like Ah Chou?

Bo Si was very curious.

At the same time, I found it very interesting.

At least, for the next ten years, his life will not be boring.

One night, Bo Si welcomed the last customer in his shop.

It was a young man in his early twenties, with delicate features and good looks, but when he entered the store, his brows were deeply furrowed, as if he had encountered something particularly difficult.

It was obviously the first time for him to come to the store, he was a little trembling, and kept looking around.

This is a very spacious shop, but the layout is very simple. As soon as you enter the shop, you will see the boss, a man in white clothes. An ashtray of cigarette butts, a couple of empty wine bottles, an unopened can of cat food, a scone that was already cold.

The young man was a little at a loss, but it was impossible to leave, because when he turned around, the door of the shop had automatically closed.

The man was even more frightened, he turned his head and stammered and asked, "Are you the boss here?"

Bo Si smiled gracefully, lit a cigarette, and handed him one, with a magnetic voice: "Yes, don't be afraid, you didn't go to the wrong place, you came here with a wish, and I just let you The one who got his wish."

The man was overjoyed: "Really!?"

Bo Si continued to smile: "Of course, but it depends on whether you can afford the price I want."

Hearing this, the man's face became heavy, but he seemed very anxious and in pain: "But, my problem is very difficult to solve, and it cannot be solved by ordinary people."

"There is no problem in this world that I can't solve." Bao Si was still holding a cigarette, calmly: "Come on, sit down, smoke a cigarette, and talk slowly."
