Chapter 2 Master House, District 38, Xiliuhun Street
"Hey, did Duan Mu go to work again?"
"My daughter-in-law just asked me when you would be back."
"My mother-in-law has made wine and is going to sell it to the tavern in West District 1. I just left some at the door of your shop. It's in the basket on the left. Remember to take it back."
"..."
Duan Mu responded to all the greetings on the street with a smile.
This seems pretty good.
to be honest……
The people on this street are actually pretty good, and the bad guys are essentially not that bad, and extremely bad guys basically can't get here.
Because this is Soul Society!
The destination of a person’s soul after death in this world.
Soul Society is divided into two parts: Rukongai and Seireitei. Seireitei is located in the center of Rukongai, where the Shinigami live, while ordinary souls live in Rukongai in Soul Society.
Rukongai is divided into 1-80 areas in each direction from east to west. Area 1 is the place with the best security, and area 80 is the worst. In places with poor security, murders, arson and other evil things often happen.
After each new soul arrives in its respective area, it will be uniformly assigned by the person responsible for managing Rukongai, so that it can form a new family with others and live together with each other.
Because too many people die at the same time, even if the souls who die at the same place at the same time are very unlikely to live in the same area. In Rukongai, souls without spiritual power will not go hungry as long as there is water.
Can live normally.
Therefore, souls without spiritual power will not change their height and weight until they die.
If you want to leave Rukongai and enter the wealthy Seireitei life, there is only one legal way. That is to possess spiritual pressure, enter the Shino Spiritual Arts Academy and graduate to become a Shinigami.
Of course, it doesn't mean that souls without spiritual pressure have no pursuit at all and just eat and wait for death every day, although it is not impossible.
But most people also want to buy nice-looking clothes, and even when they are not hungry, they also have interests such as eating, drinking, and drinking tea.
Therefore, most of the people in Rukongai will do some work within their ability, such as growing food, weaving, tea, etc... and then sell them in the first few areas, or directly to the Shinigami of Seireitei.
There are even many restaurants and pubs in the areas with the first few numbers, which provide services to the Shinigami in Seireitei who need to eat. Therefore, Shinigami can often be encountered in the areas with the first few numbers, and even Shinigami from Rukongai come back to live there during their vacations.
Some of this information was told to Duan Mu by others when chatting with others, and some of it was already known to Duan Mu.
Duan Mu is no stranger to this world.
grim Reaper!
When he first arrived in this world, Duan Mu chose to stay in the empty house assigned to him in District 38 and settle down after he struggled for a while.
The person who was originally responsible for the allocation management planned to let Duan Mu form a new family with other people, but Duan Mu refused. In addition, there happened to be a new vacant house, so he simply assigned it to Duan Mu.
However, the person in charge of the allocation also said that if new people arrive, Duan Mu may be assigned new family members.
Duan Mu is very satisfied with Area 38 of Nishi Rukongai. It is a certain distance away from the center of the storm, Seireitei. Even if something happens to Seireitei in the future, it will not affect him.
Moreover, Area 38 ‘Rongyao’ is located in the western center of Rukongai. It is an area with good security and will not encounter troubles such as murder and arson.
Actually there is one more thing...
Duan Mu feels that the number ‘38’ is very suitable for his system.
As for joining the Mao Spiritual Arts Academy and becoming a Shinigami, Duanmu had not considered it. But in the end, he gave up the idea because even if the Seireitei in his memory was very good, he could not erase the 'extremely unequal'
The essence of feudal society is that people in high positions can decide life and death at will.
Duanmu's original idea was not to enter the Seireitei until he figured out the inexplicable system in his brain.
But three years later, he fell in love with the life in Rukongai.
Therefore, Duan Mu simply stopped paying attention to the information about the God of Death. Without a specific reference, he didn't even know what year it was, although he didn't care.
…
After some pleasantries, Duan Mu came to a building.
The building occupies a small area. It is a two-story building. The second floor was built by Duan Mu himself. The small courtyard with a two-meter-high wall behind the building was also built by Duan Mu himself. The front of the building is decorated with hanging
There is a plaque with the three characters "Everything House" written on it!
although……
When Duan Mu looks at those three words now, he always feels that he must have gotten drunk and activated his second degree switch to have such a store name.
There is a price list hanging at the main entrance, which is basically a small thing.
However, the last line says: For orders other than those listed on the list, you can consult in person, and the price will be determined by the shop owner (all interpretation rights belong to our shop).
Next to the price list, there is also a brand new discount list, which reads: 10% off for women, 20% off for female reapers, 30% off for female officers, 40% off for female vice-captains, and half price for female captains... all at half price!!’.
"Well, then the God of Death should come to your door, right?"
Duan Mu looked at the newly posted discount list before going out in the morning and nodded with satisfaction.
"If you are daydreaming, it is impossible for the God of Death to entrust you."
A crisp voice came from behind Duan Mu. He turned around and saw a beautiful girl who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. Her eyes were filled with contempt when she looked at Duan Mu.
"At least it's better than your chance of growing again." Duan Mu looked at the girl's mediocre chest muscles, nodded, and emphasized again: "Well, it's many times bigger."
The girl's face suddenly turned red, not out of shame, but out of anger, and she punched her: "How come I got to know such a stinky gangster like you?"
Duan Mu didn't hide. Although he was not very strong, it didn't hurt even if he was hit by a small fist.
This girl is called Uoyue, and she is the girl with a love value of 61 who once showed some signs of being greedy for Duan Mu's body, but now that trace of signs has been erased by Duan Mu.
She knows Duan Mu's true face, and now her favorability level has always been maintained at the full friendship level of 60, without any thoughts of love.
It is worth mentioning that……
At first, the piece of wood fell from the sky inexplicably and hit her home. It caused a great commotion. There were even rumors of an invasion of travelers, which attracted the God of Death to investigate.
After investigating for a while, it was determined that Duan Mu was just an ordinary person, so he was released. The reason why he was assigned an empty house in the first place also had some compensation implications.
Duan Mu took out the key and was about to open the door. Then he seemed to remember something and threw the key to Mao Yue: "Open the door for me." Then he turned around and rummaged in the bamboo basket in the corner of the room, and finally took out a few.
A big wine bottle, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Drunkard, I love you more and more!!"
"You drunkard."
Uoyue opened the door with the key and gave Duan Mu an annoyed look: "If the husband of the drunkard hears this, he will definitely beat you up. Recently, there have been 'owners of all things house who like to seduce old ladies' on the street.
Rumor has it.”
"Jealousy, this is jealousy."
Duan Mu didn't care, picked up a few bottles of wine and entered his cabin.
The room is not big. There is a bar and a few chairs under the stairs, and a somewhat worn sofa in the center. Apart from these, the only furniture is the wine cabinet behind the bar, and Duan Mu rests on the second floor.
place.
"Do you want a drink?"
"What do you think?"
"Do you want some milk?"
"……Um."
"Hahaha, it really is..."
Looking at Uoyue who was picking up the wine bottle, Duan Mu hurriedly swallowed the word 'little brat', then took out a box of strawberry milk from under the wine cabinet and handed it to Uoyue.
With such a store name, it feels like something is missing if there is no strawberry milk in the store.
Although after being discovered by Mao Yue, all the strawberry milk Duan Mu bought from Xiyi District went into her stomach.
However, he actually bought it for Uzuki to drink. After all, he didn’t have a refrigerator here because Rukongai didn’t even have electricity. There seemed to be electricity in the Seireitei. When he went to the first area to buy food, he saw the Seireitei from a distance.
I found a building that looked like a power station.
But Duan Mu didn't know whether it was using earthly methods to generate electricity or using spiritual seeds to generate electricity.
"Since you like strawberry milk so much, why don't you go to Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy? Their cafeteria will distribute various desserts for free. It is said that the strawberry milk I bought was brought back by those students during their vacation.
Uoyue gulped down the milk, burped happily, and then said with disdain: "I don't want to be a god of death."
"Haha~~"
Duan Mu didn't ask any more questions, and instead placed the bottles of wine on the wine cabinet.
"By the way, I always see you buying drinks from the pub, but why haven't I seen you drinking? And I haven't seen you drinking in the pub."
"Little brat, have you ever heard of a saying that I advise you not to mind your own business?"
Uoyue rolled her eyes with an expression that was as disdainful as it was: "In terms of age, I can be your mother."
"..." Duan Mu.
There is no way to refute this, because according to Duan Mu's understanding, this girl has lived in District 38 for nearly thirty years.
"I'm leaving." Maoyue waved and left, very free and easy.
Duan Mu shook the empty milk carton and considered whether to buy more strawberry milk and put it in the store for the occasion. This girl wouldn't provide him with experience points anyway.
Cursing secretly, Duan Mu stood up and closed the store door, picked up a bottle of wine and went up to the second floor.
