Chapter 69: True and True(1/2)
......
Close your eyes and the world in front of you is actually not pure black.
Ah Hao imagined that he was "crunchy" by the worms and the scene of being stuffy in one go has not appeared for a long time.
In doubt, he opened his eyes.
The triangular attic roof came into view, and he was still sitting upright on the bed.
This is a double-storey shop he just spent 150,000 yuan to rent, not a world full of yellow sand.
"call"
Ah Hao sighed in relief. What, it turned out to be just a "memory" in the smell.
Everything felt so real. He once thought he had been teleported to the desert by Feixing.
He wiped his face with his hands, and the rough sand rubbed his face.
Ah Hao looked at his hands carefully, and his hands were covered with rough gravel.
It seemed like he had just fallen on the desert.
!!!
What's going on?!
It was because the sand in the bottle had been poured out before, and Ah Hao reluctantly comforted himself.
He turned his head and looked at the ground. The sand in the bottle was steadily placed on the ground, and the cork was tightly stuffed into the bottle mouth.
He got up from the bed, and the sand on his clothes fell sparsely on the floor.
Now he had to admit that something amazing seemed to have happened.
The sand was actually brought out?!
The "memory" in the smell seems to be more than just some pictures.
It's so true that it exceeds some limit.
Is this the power of [reality]?
Could it be that he was really eaten by that worm just now?
How did he escape?
In the shock, Ah Hao's mind was running at high speed, thinking about what had just happened.
The "smell" emitted from the worm's mouth is something he cares about very much.
Scent, sweet, spicy, exactly the same as the smell of sand in the bottle.
The "yellow light" brought by the "smell" even helped him solve the puzzle of the door.
Ah Hao thought in his mind, and he didn't stop his hand. He silently put the bottle of sand into his pocket.
What secret does this bottle of sand contain? What is the connection between it and that worm?
Pacing back and forth in the room, he made a decision.
Anyway, Payne is also down there, go and ask him, maybe he knows something.
He kept walking down the stairs.
"Tait."
Payne is working in the kitchen. This time he is using a mop to slowly clean the greasy dirt accumulated on the kitchen floor.
Ah Hao couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Is this how a boss feels when he sees a good employee?
"Pen!"
The boy with orange-yellow hair turned his head.
"Hey, boss, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing. I just tell you that your salary will start to be calculated early. At the end of the month, I will directly pay you a whole month's salary."
Payne showed a surprise look, and then said a little embarrassedly: "But Mr. Porter also said to pay me a whole month's salary, so wouldn't I get my salary this month? Isn't this not so good?"
Ah Hao smiled slightly: "It's nothing, it's what you deserve. I've worked hard these days to clean up more. By the way, you have to clean upstairs too. I'll probably live here in the future."
"Yeah!" Payne nodded vigorously.
"By the way." Ah Hao took out the bottle of sand from his arms, "Do you know who the bottle of sand is from the upper floor?"
Payne put down the mop, wiped his hands on the apron on his body, and took the bottle.
After observing for a while, he suddenly realized and said, "Oh, it's this, I remember it. It's Walkley's, the thing from the former chef in the store.
"This seems to be a gift from his girlfriend, and it seems to be the sand dug by himself during a trip. But Walkley later threw her away and threw it here."
Payne handed back the bottle, then said indifferently: "Boss, just take it away, Boss, anyway, Walkley can't come back here again, this thing doesn't mean anything to him."
"Yeah." Ah Hao took the bottle back into his pocket, then asked casually, "Do you know where they are traveling?"
Payne shook his head: "I don't know this. It should be a great desert country. I have a bad relationship with that arrogant guy, and I don't know as carefully as I know it."
He nodded and wrote down the information about the desert power, he was about to leave the store.
Payne asked from behind, "Boss, you're leaving, aren't you waiting for Mr. Porter to come back?"
Ah Hao shook his head: "No, I still have something to do. The goods in the store are not ready yet. You can't open a perfume shop that has no goods to sell. I still have to go to Shangcheng to get the supply of goods.
"Penn, when you are staying in the store for cleaning these days, if someone brings the goods to help collect them, I might order a batch of goods to come to the store."
Payne nodded: "A small problem, I will put it in the warehouse upstairs when the time comes."
As he said that, he walked to the counter and found an umbrella, "Boss, take this with you, it's raining outside."
Take the umbrella and say goodbye to Payne.
When he walked out of the shop, he found that sparse raindrops were indeed falling in the sky.
Ah Hao looked into the air in wonder.
In plateau areas like Agadi, rainfall is basically concentrated. April and May are the rainy season in Agadi.
Other times, it is either not going to fall, and it will rain heavily. In March, it is really rare to see such drizzle.
Holding up the umbrella, he slowly walked up the city, still recalling his experience just now.
Mysterious sand from unknown sources, dry deserts and huge worms.
Under the experience of the rain, the horror scenes he experienced seemed to be really just illusory bubbles.
He stretched out his hand, and the remaining sand fell under the erosion of the rain.
True and true.
What is reality? Where does reality come from?
For the first time, he felt incomprehensible about the eight words given by the door this time.
He scratched his hair in annoyance. Now he thought that it was not a good thing if someone helped him "answer the question".
Some things can only be thoroughly thought about by yourself.
Some doors are only pleasant to push open by yourself.
But the good news is that he seems to be cursed by [Never Lie] now.
He whispered quietly:
"I'm actually a girl."
You can panic!
But what Ah Hao didn't notice was that when he said this, the Gate of Truth shook slightly. A few yellow breaths floated out of the door.
The neon lights of downtown Agadi have already lit up, and the lively crowd is returning to the embrace of this city that never sleeps.
In the mist of the rain, neon lights exuded a different charm.
Can't figure it out, my brain hurts.
Ah Hao simply put aside his complicated thoughts and looked at the surrounding shops with great interest. After all, this will be his "battlefield" in the future.
It is always good to know in advance the surrounding situation.
First of all, there is no perfume shop here, which has been clarified in the preliminary investigation before renting the shop.
Then there are still the most restaurants on this street. Various delicacies from the world gather here, and all kinds of novel, weird and cheap delicacies are tempting customers with their smell.
In addition, there are also many small accessories stores for women's clothing and small items. The last one is tattoo shops and bars.
Unfortunately, there are no shops occupied by the young ladies.
Overall, the abortion of the street is pretty good. He had a feeling that after his perfume shop opened, it would also be attractive to the customers here.
In a slow pace, he walked out of the elevator leading to the upper town.
