Lu Huaizhou stood at the door of the bedroom and did not move forward.

The bedroom is sunny, and the warm sunlight shines on Joey's delicate face through the milky white gauze curtain.

He was lying on his back on the bed, his hands folded in front of his chest, his eyes were closed tightly, and his eyelashes cast shadows on his face.

The expression on his face was almost exactly the same as when Grandpa Qian passed away, calm and serene, with a smile on his face.

The ashes of Grandpa Qian and the photo of Grandpa Qian that Lu Huaizhou gave to Joey were placed on the two bedside tables.

It took Lu Huaizhou a few minutes to understand that Joey died on the ninth day after Grandpa Qian passed away.

It is not very appropriate to say that he is dead, he is not a human being, he is an earthbound spirit.

It should be said that he ascended to heaven?

After he reacted, he sent messages to Wu Tian, ​​Sun Yulin, and Liu Man respectively, asking them to come to the toy store as soon as they had time.

Then Lu Huaizhou moved a chair and sat at the door of the bedroom, watching Joey's body change little by little.

His nearly perfect human body gradually shed its gorgeous shell, starting from the fingertips and degrading to its original appearance little by little.

Like most of the toys in Grandpa Qian's toy store, Joey is a wooden doll.Soon his palm turned into a log-colored wooden hand, with relatively stiff knuckles and slightly curved knuckles.

The changes were still going on, Lu Huaizhou just watched blankly.

He always felt that it was not the first time he had seen such a sad yet somewhat beautiful picture, and it was not the first time that something that touched his heart and stirred up waves happened, but no matter what he thought, he couldn't remember when he was there Similar things happened to me.

The first one to arrive was the fifth day. He had a class in the morning and a class in the afternoon respectively. After the morning class, he had a few hours of free time in between.

He had just finished class when he received the text message. Seeing the anxious tone in Lu Huaizhou's message, he gave up taking the bus and took a taxi for a lot of money to drive there.

In the bedroom of the toy store, Lu Huaizhou was still staring at the bed in a daze. On the fifth day, he had already walked behind him, and no one responded.

On the fifth day, he deliberately went around in front of Lu Huaizhou and called him, "Boss?"

Lu Huaizhou finally realized that there were more people, and readjusted his gaze, only to notice the fifth day: "You are here."

"Well, what happened?"

On the fifth day, the question was about what happened to Lu Huaizhou, so that he was in the state just now, but Lu Huaizhou understood that he was asking why he suddenly called him back.

In the text message he sent just now, he only wrote about Joey's situation, without specifying it, so now he explained to the fifth day: "Joy is gone."

After entering the door on the fifth day, he patronized to look at Lu Huaizhou, and now he went to the bedside to look at Joey.

His fair skin and smooth muscle lines have almost disappeared, replaced by a well-crafted wooden body.

The skin and facial features on his face remained the same as before, but there was a faint tendency to change. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before his entire body turned into a puppet.

"He is..." After thinking for a while on the fifth day, he couldn't find a particularly suitable word to describe Joey's current state. Lu Huaizhou summed it up simply and rudely.

"It's just dead." Lu Huaizhou still thought it was easy to understand.

"Will the earthbound spirit die too?" asked the fifth day again.

"Earthbound spirits are all because of unfulfilled wishes. The souls trapped in place will disappear once their wishes are realized."

On the fifth day, he nodded slowly, half understanding: "What is Joey's wish?"

"I don't know," Lu Huaizhou said after thinking about it, "but I guess, it's probably to accompany Grandpa Qian until he grows old."

That's why he left after Grandpa Qian passed away.

"Is this a good ending?" On the fifth day, he couldn't bear to continue looking at Joey's face that had begun to change, and asked from the bedside to Lu Huaizhou.

"Forget it." Lu Huaizhou stood up and stretched.He had been sitting here for two hours this morning, and his whole body was stiff.

Lu Huaizhou went outside and saw the glass shards scattered on the ground, and then remembered that he smashed the door just now, and hurriedly turned around to care about the fifth day: "These didn't hurt you, did they?"

"No," Tian Wu asked Lu Huaizhou, carefully bypassing the area with the most debris accumulation, "Do you want someone to fix it?"

"want."

On the fifth day, I searched the Internet for someone who repaired and installed glass doors. After a brief communication, the other party agreed to come and have a look.Lu Huaizhou started staring in the direction of the bedroom again, seemingly in a daze, but actually he was thinking.

Joey would soon be fully transformed back into a wooden doll that he could display in a window and put on a shelf, but it would definitely still want to be with Grandpa Qian.

Although Lu Huaizhou is very clear that both Joey and Grandpa Qian are gone, and the puppets and ashes left behind by them are only evidence of their existence in the world, he still hopes that these two things can be kept in a harmonious manner. Store in one place.

But where can it be placed without being obtrusive?

Toy stores can put puppets, but not ashes. This will make people who come later unable to sleep peacefully.

After finishing the phone call on the fifth day, I listened to Lu Huaizhou's distress and thought with him.

The two kept thinking that in the afternoon, after eating lunch at the breakfast shop, watching the master who repaired the gate come over to measure the size, squatting at the door and eating two ice creams, they still had no clue.

When Sun Yulin got out of the car, what he saw was outside the main gate with only one glass door left. There were two "door gods" squatting on the left and right. Their movements seemed to be reflected in a mirror, with one arm stretched out and the other resting on their chin. , with a sad face.

"Hey, hey, I said, what's the matter?" Sun Yulin was still holding a briefcase in his hand, and knocked on the head of the nearest person.

Lu Huaizhou glanced up at him, too lazy to speak, and finally told Sun Yulin the ins and outs and why they were worried about it on the fifth day.

So squatting at the door became three people.

Sun Yulin's and Lu Huaizhou's worries were different.

He felt that he would not comment on how to deal with the dead, but Liu Mandrill was coming soon, and he was a very difficult guy to deal with.

It took a lot of hard work to get him to agree to live with Joey in the future, but now that Joey has disappeared again, are they making a joke with Liu Mandrill?That man never liked to joke.If someone really dared to joke with him, he would really dare to lose his temper on the spot.

Considering that Lu Huaizhou and Liu Xi were not very good at each other, if he left, Boss Lu might not be able to do Liu Xi's business again in the future.

From Sun Yulin's point of view, he was actually more worried about Lu Huaizhou.

"Huaizhou." Sun Yulin, who was squatting next to Lu Huaizhou, suddenly called his name.

"Huh?" Lu Huaizhou turned his head to look at him very slowly.

Sun Yulin endured his numb legs and stood up, staring at the street not far away: "Liu Man is here."

Lu Huaizhou squatted for too long, his legs were almost numb, and he was shaking when he stood up. Fortunately, Sun Yulin helped him, so he didn't fall directly into the mud.

The news Liu Po ​​received was the same as on the fifth day. He only knew that there was something wrong with Joey, but he didn't say anything in detail. He still didn't know what happened.

But when he first saw that there was only half of the gate left, he guessed that it should be a big deal.He nodded to Lu Huaizhou and the others as a greeting, and strode into the toy store with the other three following behind him.

Lu Huaizhou kept his head down all the way and didn't dare to talk to Liu Po. He knew that Liu Po ​​had always disliked him because of Liu Huazhong's affairs. If he said it, it would be easy to complicate the simple things. I made an agreement with the fifth day and Sun Yulin. The main thing is that the fifth day will introduce what happened to Liu Ji, and Sun Yulin will make some additions and reconciliations to see if he can make sense of people.

Before Liu Po ​​went to the bedroom, on the fifth day, he explained Joey's matter in a concise and concise manner, and apologized to Liu Po ​​piously, expressing that he could give some compensation for his boss.

Unexpectedly, Liu Po ​​asked coldly, "Is this your fault?"

"Of course not." Sun Yulin hurriedly said.This is not throwing the pot away, this is not something they could have predicted, let alone something he could control.He felt that Lu Huaizhou, as the boss of the Strange News Agency, was already working hard, and even with the presence of the beautiful sister, it was impossible to change the current situation.

Liu Man also didn't want to pursue the responsibility of the Alien News Agency. He didn't understand why those two apologized, and asked instead, "Then why do I want your compensation?"

Sun Yulin clasped his hands together, the relief on his face was too obvious: "If you can think so, we would be very grateful." Before he could relax completely, he listened to Liu Ba again.

"only……"

Sun Yulin's nerves tensed up again in an instant: "What else do you need, just ask, we will do our best."

"About the ownership of this house." Liu Hao paused, and continued, "I didn't go to the real estate bureau to transfer ownership with Grandpa Qian. He still left a suicide note and left the house to me through notarization. But it's him I hope I can take care of Joey, so I gave it to me. Now that Joey is gone, I have no reason to accept this property, so I need to trouble you to help me deal with it."

"No problem." Sun Yulin patted his chest to assure him, he thought it was something embarrassing.

Lu Huaizhou pulled away Sun Yulin who hastily agreed, and said the first sentence after seeing Liu Mandrill today: "How to deal with it?"

"That's your business." Liu Hao didn't even look at Lu Huaizhou, and his tone was somewhat contemptuous, "You can't even do this, can you?"

"We can, don't worry." Sun Yulin pulled Lu Huaizhou back behind him again, guaranteeing him.

After all, Liu Yan didn't let them deal with it at will, and provided them with several ideas for them to choose by themselves.He sat down on the chair that Lu Huaizhou had sat all morning, thinking about the problem that had made Lu Huaizhou worry all morning—how to deal with Joey's doll body and Grandpa Qian's ashes.
