Chapter 723 Attorney An Returns! (Fourth Update!)
The old Daoist hung up the phone,
But the woman’s hoarse shouting continued to echo,
Seeming to reverberate endlessly in the bookstore’s air.
The bookstore’s atmosphere
Plummeted to freezing,
A sense of oppression slowly spreading.
The old Daoist covered his face with both hands,
Rubbing hard,
As if forcing himself to wake up.
Zhou Ze’s fingers lightly traced patterns on the coffee table,
Engraving a series of lines.
Lao Zhang also licked his lips,
But,
When his gaze swept toward Zhou Ze, he couldn’t help but jump in fright.
Zhou Ze’s eyes were cold, very cold;
Generally speaking,
When their boss lay on the sofa by the window with a newspaper,
It was his most comfortable and relaxed time,
Like a pet cat being petted, its eyes narrowed in comfort.
But now,
Whether it was from his experience as a former detective or his understanding of the bookstore’s occupants,
Lao Zhang knew,
Their boss was murderous this time.
As the saying goes, people change.
Lao Zhang wasn't sure if it was a series of events that had prompted the boss's personality to change, or if, as Lawyer An had said, the boss's personality was influencing the terrifying entity within him.
In short, Zhou Ze had changed a lot since Lao Zhang first met him, becoming more and more decisive. Usually, it wasn't obvious, but when something really happened, that fierce aura would explode without hesitation.
Zhou Ze's fingers trembled slightly,
"Biu!"
A gray flash of lightning instantly arrived on the coffee table in front of Zhou Ze,
Wiggling its butt,
Waggling,
Waggling,
Waggling again.
The ferret was probably the one who had been living the most comfortable life lately. Everyone else was either physically or emotionally injured, but it just slept all day.
Of course, that excluded the looming shadow of being exploded.
In fact,
When fighting against the old man and Officer Chen at the hospital, the ferret had helped, but it had only made a half-hearted effort, not really risking its life.
Zhou Ze hadn't forced it to fight with its life, because Zhou Ze knew that the ferret obeyed him because it was afraid of pain.
If he forced it to risk its life, and it got beaten by the old man and Officer Chen, since it would be painful anyway, and it would suffer anyway, what choice would it make?
Probably,
It would most likely defect.
After all, Zhou Ze was the one it hated the most, dragging it out of its "hibernation."
Don’t let its cuteness fool you; it held grudges. Back in the cave, it almost wiped out the entire bookstore.
"Boss."
Lao Zhang immediately walked to the sofa, wanting to say something, but not knowing how to start.
After all, anyone would be angry in this situation.
Ordinary people getting angry was one thing,
But the problem was,
There were too few ordinary people in the bookstore.
Ever since Xu Qinglang merged with a portion of the Sea God, he could no longer be considered a true ordinary person.
And the bookstore’s only remaining pure living person, the old Daoist,
Was like the girl in a civil engineering class,
And the one who always got bullied.
Zhou Ze reached out and stroked the ferret,
Especially that Corgi-like butt,
The feel was really good, making it irresistible.
"Some people, since they want to die, they can really go die."
Zhou Ze said calmly.
The deceased student aside,
But his mother,
Truly confirmed the saying: Like parent, like child.
What was the point of leaving such disgusting trash in the world, wasting food?
"Boss…"
Lao Zhang felt he should still try to dissuade him.
Zhou Ze glanced at Lao Zhang, smiled, and said, "Can you find the address?"
"…" Lao Zhang.
"Forget it, I won't make things difficult for you."
Zhou Ze looked up,
Thought for a moment,
It was a time to use people,
But the bookstore had so few people to send out. Clearly, there was a whole group, but now they were either injured or crippled, or they had the task of taking care of the "injured."
"I'll go."
The little loli took the initiative to walk over.
"Is your partner awake yet?"
The little loli rolled her eyes at Zhou Ze,
But nodded.
"Alright, you go, and you don't need to take action."
Saying that,
Zhou Ze reached out and slapped the ferret’s butt,
"Jiii~~~~"
The ferret cried out.
"Killing someone, is that okay?"
The ferret turned its head back aggrievedly, looking at Zhou Ze.
After a long while,
It reluctantly nodded.
"Boss, it's not necessary, it's not necessary, this…"
Lao Zhang still wanted to persuade him,
But Zhou Ze didn't seem to care, and didn't want to listen at all.
"Yo, so lively."
At this time,
The bookstore door was pushed open,
A middle-aged man in a suit, although one-armed, still exuding charm, appeared at the door,
Bowing,
鞠躬,
With a graceful demeanor,
And a smiling face,
"Everyone, I'm back."
…
Lawyer An was the kind of person who made little difference whether he was around or not, but if he really wasn’t around, it would be very inconvenient.
Kind of like a toilet plunger,
You think it takes up space usually,
But when something really happens,
Without it,
You can’t just reach in with your hand, can you?
Lao Zhang, as if seeing a savior, quickly told Lawyer An the whole story.
Lawyer An wiped the spittle that Lao Zhang sprayed on his face with a tissue while nodding,
Lao Zhang had eaten fried garlic in the police station’s cafeteria today, and on top of that, he was having a heat flare-up,
So the breath…
After finally listening,
Lawyer An immediately patted his chest,
And said to Zhou Ze:
"Boss, you've kept your hands clean for so long, you can't just ruin it so easily. No matter what, even if it's the ferret killing someone, some karma will fall on us.
"Although you have that special ghost messenger certificate, oh no, it's a token now, but there's no need to take the risk.
"A family of scum,
Making their lives worse than death,
It's really an easy thing to do,
Don't worry,
Leave it to me."
Zhou Ze didn’t speak, and of course, he didn’t continue to insist on his previous plan.
When it came to schemes and dealing with ordinary people, Zhou Ze trusted Lawyer An's dirty work skills.
Lawyer An smiled,
Walked to the old Daoist,
Reached out and grabbed the old Daoist's shoulders,
And almost shouted:
"Why can't you change this habit of being a good person?
"You only care about feeling good and accomplished when you give money, right?
"If that doesn't work, you can set up a stall every day in Tongcheng's primary, middle, and universities, or rent a cafeteria window and have a free lunch and dinner event, can't you?
"These days,
Who has it easier than anyone else?
"No matter where people are from, if they don't have sick people at home and have their own hands and feet, they can't afford to send their children to school, that's bullsh*t!"
The old Daoist nodded repeatedly, his heart was indeed a little confused.
Lawyer An felt a little unbearable,
And,
He really didn't dare to offend the old Daoist to death,
A person,
Living in the world,
Most people never find a big shot to latch onto;
But now,
He had two!
And they were both in the potential dragon in the abyss pattern,
Ministers who followed the dragon!!!!!!!!
Lawyer An picked up another tissue, wiped the old Daoist’s face, and said softly:
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything for you, don't worry, don't worry."
Saying that, Lawyer An hugged the old Daoist into his arms, patted his back, and muttered to himself:
"Actually, sometimes, I really think of you as my father in my past life. He was also a very good person, just like you."
"And then?" The little loli asked coldly from the side.
"Then he was swindled out of everything he had. I, a rich second-generation guy from the Republic of China, was almost going to Whampoa, but my family fell into decline, and I was killed by debt collectors."
After the soothing,
Lawyer An looked at the bar,
Reached out and was just about to say something.
"Lawyer, your coffee!"
Yingying had already handed the Super Cup coffee to Lawyer An,
Not forgetting the "coffee mate" that the boss had given her last time.
Lawyer An excitedly took the "Super Cup",
Gave Yingying a thumbs up and said:
"Yingying, you're getting more and more beautiful."
Yingying, who had already received praise from the "boss's wife,"
Was unmoved.
"Glug glug glug!!!!!!!"
Lawyer An drank the expired Nescafe instant coffee mixed with "coffee mate" in one gulp,
Like drinking alcohol,
He put down the cup and wiped his mouth with his elbow.
"Tsk…"
Lawyer An seemed to remember something and said:
"Boss, the sanatorium has been arranged and decorated. The newly renovated rooms are great, suitable for sunbathing and vacationing. When do you have time to go?"
"Soon."
"Oh, so eager, okay, okay."
Lawyer An rolled his eyes, seemingly guessing something, but not very sure.
"Solve this matter first," Zhou Ze reminded.
"Don't worry, I'll make an arrangement first. When you mess with people, you have to praise them first and then suppress them. This way, the satisfaction is higher, just like those novels in the store. You have to let people step on their faces and accumulate hatred points so that when you slap them in the face later, it'll be satisfying enough."
Lawyer An picked up his phone and made a call,
"Hey, are you all dead?
"If you're not dead, check the work group messages and get moving!
"Other companies are cutting year-end bonuses now,
"Do you want me to cut them too!"
After a long tirade,
Lawyer An shook his phone,
And said:
"Wait and see the show."
After speaking,
Lawyer An hooked Lao Zhang's shoulders again,
"Let's go, Lao Zhang, let's go to the scene and take a look."
"Now?"
"Yes, now."
"What do you suspect?"
"Nonsense, an idiot who was still thinking about selling misery to buy a new iPhone,
"You tell me,
"Where did he get the courage to commit suicide?
"It's not that I look down on this kind of selfish ingrate,
"If you ask them to lick people's boots, they'll do it more enthusiastically than anyone else.
"If you ask them to die,
"Heh,
"They wouldn't dare!"
