Chapter 129 The grudge between Jim and the castle

Zhou Bai did not dare to give the answer directly, so he could only ask tentatively first.

"Do you have any grudge against that castle?"

The shop owner shook his head, "That's not true."

After Zhou Bai heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He picked up the coffee next to him and took a sip.

Then, I wanted to talk to the shop owner about things in the castle.

Unexpectedly, I heard the other party continue to say.

"However, most people in the town have grudges against that castle."

Suddenly, Zhou Bai took a sip of coffee and almost spit it out.

What?

Do you have any grudges with most people in the town?

If I go, I might as well have a grudge against you.

The shop owner didn't know that Zhou Bai was actually hoping to have a grudge against him.

So, he continued to talk heartlessly.

"I heard that there is a new heir to the castle now.

I don’t know which unlucky guy inherited this castle?”

Zhou Bai put a hand on his forehead.

The shop owner asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Bai helplessly replied, "Is there a possibility? The unlucky guy you mentioned is me?"

The shop owner's eyes widened in surprise.

But looking at Zhou Bai's gorgeous clothes, it seems very reasonable.

So, he apologized to Zhou Bai non-stop.

"Sorry, sorry.

I didn't mean to say you were unlucky.

In fact, inheriting that old castle was not that unlucky.

Haha. Don’t take it too seriously.”

Zhou Bai sighed silently.

I can only continue to ask.

"What about the bald guy with the chainsaw? He also has a grudge against the castle?"

The shop owner nodded.

He approached Zhou Bai and whispered mysteriously.

"I heard that ten years ago, on his wedding night, his wife disappeared inexplicably.

When I looked for her, I could only see her grave, and she was buried near the castle."

When Zhou Bai heard this, he immediately got goosebumps.

The previous owners of the castle took photos with each tomb.

It is difficult not to doubt that he had nothing to do with the deaths of these people.

Zhou Bai thought of the tombs surrounding the castle, and also thought of the bloody chainsaw in the bald man's hand.

Suddenly I felt a little creepy.

"Then do you know what happened ten years ago?"

The shop owner shook his head.

"Ten years ago, I was still young.

The old people were not allowed to discuss this matter.

So, I don't know exactly what happened.

Don't ask others about this either.

If you happen to ask someone who has a grudge against the castle, you may be in danger."

Zhou Bai nodded in agreement.

But we can’t ask any more questions, and it will be difficult to continue exploring this line.

Zhou Bai always had a vague feeling in his heart that what happened ten years ago might be the source of all the strange things happening in this castle.

The new wife of the bald chainsaw man was buried near the castle ten years ago.

The previous owner of the castle also died ten years ago.

Is there any connection between this?

Perhaps, if we look at the construction dates of other tombs, we might be able to get some clues.

Zhou Bai recalled the photo album placed in the castle.

Unfortunately, the dates of construction of each of the tombs above are not clear in many photos.

It seems that we still have to find time to visit those tombs.

Zhou Bai secretly made a decision in his heart.

Then I continued to inquire about the news from the shop owner.

The two of them have been chatting until now, and the time has reached 11:30 noon.

It's almost dinner time.

As a result, the shop started to open one after another, and other customers arrived.

"Jingle Bell"

The bell on the door of the small shop reminds the boss to come and greet customers.

"Sorry, a guest is coming, I have to go over first."

The boss said something to Zhou Bai, then stood up from his chair, walked towards the door, and warmly greeted the guests who came in.

There are still many questions Zhou Bai wants to ask.

But it cannot hinder others from doing business.

I could only sit on my seat, pick up the already cold French fries on the table, and put them in my mouth.

As he slowly ate the food on the table, he was summarizing the information he had just obtained.

The bakery owner has a bad reputation, and there are still questions about whether he can make a Christmas cake.

When buying candy, you should pay more attention. Not every candy can be called Christmas candy.

There is also the bald chainsaw man. He has a grudge against the castle. From now on, you should try to avoid him.

As for the video store and the decoration store, these two stores are not normal either.

Especially video stores.

In addition, Zhou Bai still doesn’t know where to buy pine trees.

It seems that I still need to find an opportunity to ask the boss for more information.

By this time, Zhou Bai also felt a little hungry.

Then began to enjoy his lunch.

When it was time for the official meal, the number of customers in the shop began to increase.

The boss is only himself.

I have to go to the kitchen to cook, greet guests, and collect money at the front desk.

Extremely busy.

In the following time, Zhou Bai really couldn't find a chance to talk to him.

So, I could only finish the food on the table.

Then go to the counter and ask him to pay the bill.

Before leaving, Zhou Bai asked by the way, "Do you know where I can buy pine trees?"
