Opening a Shop in the Nightmare World

"Alzheimer's disease?"

Although there are no elders around Su Zimo who will develop dementia after old age, he knows that when his grandfather enters old age, he learns computers and various minority languages ​​from scratch like a young man, just to avoid Alzheimer's disease. He hoped that he would remain sober until the last moment, which is also very important to the Su Group.

It is precisely because of this that Su Zimo knows how terrible the dementia that often appears in ordinary people's jokes, that is, Alzheimer's disease, will become when it reaches the advanced stage.

Due to illness, the old man feels that his memory has decreased significantly. He will forget what happened yesterday, and he can’t remember it. Gradually, even if he looks at the people around him who have been with him for more than ten or even decades, he will start to feel dazed.

With the decline in memory, the judgment and understanding of the elderly also began to decline, and they could not keep up with what others said. They also forgot how to do the things they often do on weekdays. They began to feel bored and negative about their hobbies that they had persisted in for a lifetime .In this way, the sick old man will make outsiders feel dumbfounded, as if he suddenly became stupid.

But compared to forgetfulness and dementia, the most frightening thing is that some Alzheimer's patients will have very large mood swings. They may be drinking tea very calmly a minute ago, and then they can't control it because of some trivial things in the next second. cry.Sometimes some patients who are originally optimistic and peaceful will become very angry easily, and it is not surprising that they fall into violent rage because of some sesame mung bean things.

In short, taking care of such an elderly person is not an easy task for any family.

Even if you go to a doctor... Ordinary drugs have little effect on patients with advanced Alzheimer's disease. Almost only some expensive trial drugs can be used, but the effect is only mediocre. It is better to let the elderly happily Enjoy your old age in an environment surrounded by your children and grandchildren.

But it seems that the Bai family living in this villa didn't think so. They placed the old man in a luxurious villa. In order not to make the villa look like a gorgeous cage, they arranged many servants and A dedicated family doctor stays in the villa to take care of the elderly who cannot take care of themselves due to illness, and advances enough funds to the housekeeper every month to let him manage the expenses of the elderly and various expensive medicines used by the family doctor.

The Bai family did not expect that the housekeeper of the family doctor would act in a cowardly manner, embezzling all the money that should have been spent on the old man for his own use.

Of course, the reason why the Bai family didn't find out may be that they didn't take the money to heart, or that they spent the money to reassure them. It wasn't until the housekeeper asked for an advance payment that was beyond their affordability. finally began to refuse.

But before the Bai family found anything, the steward must have stopped the fraud of the open and dark ledgers, and instead sold all the books in the old man's collection without any resistance, leaving only some empty shells to cover up people's eyes and ears.

"But the old man doesn't seem to care about these complicated facts." Su Zimo quietly listened to Jin Lei's speculation this time, and then looked at the messy hall and said, "He just wants to finish this unfinished banquet That's all, every May [-]th is probably the only chance for the old man to see his granddaughter."

Even through just a few lines of "Notes on the Lonely Mountain: Postscript", Su Zimo can feel the kind of love that his ancestors have for their grandchildren, which is no less than the relationship between Su Zimo and his grandfather before.

"What should we do?" The lunatic spread his hands and looked at Su Zimo, "Could it be that the so-called silver lining is as simple as completing the unfinished banquet?"

"Don't we still have our own identities?" Su Zimo waved the "Steward's Self-Cultivation" in his hand, maybe because the poisonous snake happened so suddenly, everyone seemed to forget what they just finished role-playing tasks.

You know, the viper sleeping there at the moment is still wearing the "tight" maid outfit.

"Is this the role of role-playing?!" The lunatic slapped his forehead violently, "How stubborn is that old man, and at this time he still has to urge people to role-play as servants to prepare for the banquet? Every time from the room When I woke up, I met a ghost and got angry, so the old man thought we were neglecting our duties, so he ran over to remind us, right?"

"Maybe this is the truth." Su Zimo said, and then asked the lunatic, "Mr. lunatic, you seem to know something related to banquets, can you please tell us what to do?"

The lunatic didn't refuse either, but after carefully looking around, he said, "The most important thing now is to clean up the hall and rearrange the tables, right? I remember those dirty tableware were piled up in the corner over there." Well, it should be barely usable after tidying up, for food... just use the supplies we bring with us, anyway, it is impossible for the ghosts to really eat."

"There's a broom in the maid's room!" Qi Xiaomin hurried to the inner room to get the broom and dustpan while he was speaking. He took the broom and dustpan in his hand, and stuffed it directly into Du Xin's hand.

Liu Xu, who was wearing a chef's uniform, didn't say a word, but silently walked towards the pile of discarded dinner plates in the corner.

Everyone is wearing the clothes of the corresponding characters, everyone has joined the team preparing for the banquet, and everyone is sure that as long as the unfinished banquet is completed, they can pass the level from this nightmare world!

But Su Zimo, who was standing there holding the butler professional book, suddenly had a very bad feeling. He always felt that there was something he hadn't considered, and he always felt that there were very important clues that had not been discovered.

The thing Su Zimo couldn't let go of was that he knew that he was not a trainer, so why did he now join the tasks of trainees with the role of "housekeeper"?Is there really no problem doing this?

"Su Zimo, why are you in a daze?" Doctor Jin just found a pair of stethoscopes from the upstairs room, and patted Su Zimo on the shoulder as he passed by.

"After all, Mr. Su is the housekeeper. You just need to watch us do it." Qi Xiaomin fanned the dust in front of his nose while continuing to clean the already dilapidated ground, coughing a few times from time to time.

"No, I just always feel like there's something we're missing."

"Oops!"

Almost at the moment when Su Zimo's ending sound landed, that drowsy feeling struck again, which means that the practitioners are about to usher in their fourth night!

The survival time given by this nightmare world mission is five days. If the experiencers fall into a deep sleep again at this time, then the time left for them is only the last day!

And this day may be much shorter than 24 hours.

……

"What else is wrong?" Qi Xiaomin and Du Xin pulled the poisonous snake that was still sleeping in the maid's room back to the living room, and found that the other trainees had also come out of their rooms and were sitting around the long dining table.

"The old man just now appeared in the darkness again. He almost bit off my hand in order to urge us to set up a banquet!" Du Xin belonged to a relatively disadvantaged group among all people, and he and Qi Xiaomin, who was also weak, and the sleeping poisonous tongue Lying in a room, so their room received the most serious ghost attacks.

Everyone could see that Du Xin's hand was bruised and purple, and he couldn't move his arm until now.If Liu Xu from the chef's room hadn't rushed over and punched away the ghost who knew the "separation technique", Du Xin and the others would have been in trouble this time.

Su Zimo also held the metal pen tightly in his hand. Every time he woke up, the attack of the ghosts in the room would become more violent. If it weren't for the fact that the trainees of this mission were all hidden, maybe there was no need to search for it. A glimmer of hope can make the trainees downsizing the moment they wake up.

"Don't worry, as long as you can pass the level, everything will be fine." Although the trainees kept comforting themselves, they could see that everyone was clouded, and they didn't even care about the half-cleaned hall around them.

"Did we make a mistake?" Even Dr. Jin began to hesitate, "Is the first line of life really a preparation for a banquet?"

"All the clues lead to this path, don't they?" Su Zimo put the metal pen away, "There is only one loophole I can think of."

"Loophole?" Hearing these two words, the eyes of the other trainees focused again.

"It's the role we're playing now." Su Zimo looked at Du Xin and the others, who were wearing maid outfits that didn't fit at all, and Liu Xu, who was wearing a chef's uniform as big as a sack, "Is that correct?"

"Wrong?" The other trainees were also a little dazed.

"Ah!" Dr. Jin seemed to think of something suddenly, and said clearly, "The identity of our role-playing is determined according to the room where we wake up the second time, but... that room seems to be Alzheimer's room too. The sick old man stuffed it indiscriminately? At first, he felt relieved and encouraged Cheng Yun to wear a maid outfit, but there seems to be something wrong."

"Yeah, no one has ever said that the role we are playing now is correct." Su Zimo lowered his head and thought, "I even think that the role you need to play has already been decided when you entered this nightmare world. After all, you need to play There are ten characters, and you are exactly ten...people..."

As Su Zimo spoke, his voice dropped.

After all, he is the No.11 outsider.

However, the other trainees didn't seem to notice the mistakes in Su Zimo's words. They just said annoyedly: "Then how could we know the correct identity? That old man probably wouldn't be able to throw us into the correct room if he spent his whole life." !"

"Pay attention to... the mirror..."

At this time, a timid voice that had never been heard before suddenly came to mind in the silent hall. The feeling of suppressing the voice as if not daring to communicate with other people came from hiding behind others before, but now holding tightly Holding the little Wanling girl named "Broken Ghost" gardening scissors.

"The mission said, pay attention to the mirror." When everyone's eyes came together, Wan Ling couldn't help closing her eyes, and then she could speak fluently.

At that time, Su Zimo walked to the covered decorative mirror alone, considered the angle, tore off the big tablecloth very quickly, and then took a few steps back.

The strange thing is that Su Zimo didn't see the ghost that Xiaohuo said before in the mirror, but only saw himself who looked a little tired from fighting for several "days" in a row.

and nothing out of the ordinary.

After thinking for a while, Su Zimo glanced at the movable bracket under the big mirror, and turned the mirror to the direction of the long dining table next to him, so that he could see the other trainees sitting on the long dining table through the mirror .

At that moment, everyone's bodies were completely stiff. They turned their heads to look at the picture in the mirror, but the faces of many people began to turn pale and frightened. The whispering voice said: "Handsome Su, what are you doing... What a good thing..."

Su Zimo, who had been moving the mirror, knew that they must have seen something in the mirror, so he carefully walked away from the side of the mirror, and slowly returned to the other side of the long dining table where the trainees were.

He raised his head and looked at the mirror that was aligned ahead of him...

There are no figures of ten sitting practitioners in the mirror at all!

Sitting there were clearly ten ferocious and blood-stained ghosts in uniforms. When those ghosts suddenly turned their heads and looked at the trainees, they rushed to the dining table and rushed towards the people outside the mirror. !
