Striving for Science

Chapter 86: worth

Views:

The deputy store manager of Centennial Haohe Store is a part-time flower delivery boy, and he has been a little depressed recently. Because Mr. Shen, who is keen to send sunflowers, gladiolus, calla lilies and other flowers representing friendship to his friends, seems to be not satisfied with the variety of flowers in their store and wants to visit other stores.

In order to retain this guest, he and his fiancée did everything possible, and even used one hundred and eight flower arrangements, which finally forced him to give up the idea of changing stores.

November has passed quietly without knowing it, and more than half of December has passed quickly. During this month, the flower delivery brother's view of Shen Changan has made a qualitative leap from bad to good.

Sometimes when the best and freshest flowers arrive in their store, he doesn't forget to call Shen Changan first if he wants to prepare a copy for him, and he only charges a friendship price.

"Don't send flowers during the two days of Christmas." One morning in mid-to-late December, the flower delivery brother saw that Shen Changan came to order flowers again, and couldn't help but said, "The flowers in those days were very expensive and the quality was not good enough. It must be the best, not worth it. Anyway, you are sending it to a friend, not a lover."

The flower delivery guy didn't quite understand the complicated emotional entanglement between Shen Changan and that Mr. Nian. He thought that Mr. Nian would be angry and not accept flowers because of Shen Changan's polite rejection, but he didn't know that the other party accepted it every time.

He thought that Mr. Shen would send flowers just to reject Mr. Nian's wishes, but he didn't expect that Mr. Shen had been giving flowers every now and then for more than a month. And looking at his appearance, it doesn't seem like he is disgusted with Mr. Nian. Instead, he genuinely thinks that Mr. Nian likes those flowers before giving them.

It's so messy, it's so messy that people can't see it clearly. The emotional world of your circle is really something ordinary people look up to.

"It's fine." Shen Changan smiled, "Christmas is only once a year, the more expensive it is, the more expensive it is."

"Aren't you being nice to your friends like this?"

"Because he treats me better." Shen Changan skillfully took out his mobile phone to scan the QR code to pay, "I'll still send it to the old place, trouble, brother Ming."

"Should be." There is a clear word in the name of the flower delivery brother, so after the two became acquainted, Shen Changan called him Ming brother.

According to Brother Ming, he and his fiancée are both in the countryside. After years of going out to work and saving some money, they rented a shop to do flower business. The two opened the store early every day and closed the store late. They were warm to customers and suffered hardships. Gradually, the business became better and better. The biggest ideal of the two is to buy a house in the city, so that the children can also get a good job in the future. kindergartens and elementary schools.

The two were preparing to get married before the Spring Festival, and they also invited Shen Changan.

Shen Changan took the 20% discount card given to him by the shop owner, agreed on the spot, and finally took on the responsibility of the best man.

Seeing that Shen Changan made up his mind to order flowers on Christmas day, the flower delivery brother stopped persuading him. He made up the bill and asked Shen Changan to come again next time.

I don’t know if it’s because of the approaching Christmas, the civilian service department is getting busier and busier. Today, I help this department catch escaped animals, tomorrow I will help that department to publicize the fight against illegal crimes, and the day after tomorrow, I will help the security department to patrol.

In the past few days, Wuming City did not know where a rumor came from, saying that someone had dug up a zombie in the ground, and the zombie had sneaked away while no one was paying attention.

There are countless rumors about zombies. Some say that zombies are afraid of the sun, and some say that zombies are not afraid of the sun and are afraid of garlic. If they are bitten by zombies, they will become zombies. The most terrifying theory is that zombies can disguise themselves as ordinary people. When others are not paying attention, he bites his neck and sucks blood.

Shen Changan felt that these rumors were quite a combination of Chinese and Western, combining the advantages and disadvantages of zombies and vampires.

"Opening the circle of friends, there are rumors about zombies everywhere. I refuted the rumors among my relatives, but I was besieged by seven aunts and eight aunts. I would rather believe it or not. My mother also said that I was going to the temple. Ask me for a talisman here." Chen Panpan was lying on the table, weakly repairing the rumor-refuting propaganda draft, "It's really a rumor, a rumor, and a broken leg, the work of these two days is considered a waste."

"In the past few days, the temples and Taoist temples have been burning incense. Those liars who claim to be immortals and half-immortals have all come out. They all say that they have the talisman paper to restrain zombies, and the talismans are only given to those who are destined." Ding Yang grasped it. The swindler's information was relaxed into the mailboxes of a few colleagues, "Some old men and old ladies are in their 70s and 80s, and they don't have much money. Those liars use this kind of money, do they have a good conscience?"

"How can a person with a conscience be a liar?" Xu Ze clicked on the information sent by Ding Yang, "These days, the public security organs will arrest some of the most famous liars to let the common people know that these people have no ability to be angry at all. , all we have to do is cooperate with their work.”

"I divided Wuming City into four areas, each of us is responsible for one area, do you have any comments?" Xu Ze sent everyone the areas he was responsible for.

"I'm OK."

"no problem."

"I have no problem." Shen Changan looked at the area he was responsible for, and the community where Daonian lived was also divided into this area.

Is this a coincidence, or is Xu Ze taking care of it intentionally

Seeing that everyone had no opinion, Xu Ze said sadly, "Then we arrange it like this. We may have to work overtime hard again these days."

"The civil service department is for the people." Ding Yang yawned, "It doesn't matter if you are busy these few days, it's fine if you have time to rest on New Year's Day."

"Chang'an, what are your plans for New Year's Day?" Ding Yang turned to ask Shen Chang'an, "If not, we'll go out to barbecue together on New Year's Day."

"No, I made an appointment to go to the provincial capital with my friends on New Year's Day." Shen Changan got up and got himself a glass of water, wishing you all a good time in advance. "

"It's your good friend again?" Ding Yang asked with a smile.

"En." Shen Changan nodded, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's good." Ding Yang felt that talking too much at any time was annoying, and he didn't want to be such a person.

"Oh." Seeing that he didn't say anything, Shen Changan lowered his head and picked up the teacup and continued to drink water.

Xu Ze looked up at the two of them, and buried his head back again.

In order to do a good job of dispelling rumors about zombies, the entire civilian service department was so busy that even Director Du, who usually doesn't like to use computers, was typing on the keyboard with "One Finger Zen".

When Shen Changan got off work in the evening, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening.

He drove over in the morning, so he didn't let Shen Tu and the others come to pick him up, and drove back slowly by himself.

The weather is getting colder, fewer pedestrians are walking outside at night, and many shops have closed. After a hundred years of Haohe flower shop, I saw that the front door of the flower shop was wide open, and two hanging baskets fell on the door, which looked a little wrong.

Turning off the car, Shen Changan cautiously approached the door of the flower shop, and when he heard a thin sound from inside, he looked down and put the broken flower pot porcelain in his coat: "Is anyone there? "

"Where's the boss, who doesn't do business with the door open?"

"What's the matter?" A man in a black down jacket came out of the small utility room in the flower shop. It was a very strange man.

"What else can I do, not just come out to buy flowers?" Shen Changan shook his legs, looking like he was out of breath, "I quarreled with my mother-in-law, she kicked me out, and I didn't let me in, and I didn't buy some. Go back to coax her, and I may have to freeze outside for the night."

The man frowned and looked at the flowers in the shop again: "What do you want?"

"Just pick a few red roses. You see, your flower is a little bit tricky. Sell it at a cheaper price." Shen Changan took out a few dozen yuan from his body, "I brought so much money when I came out, see how much I can buy. A flower?"

The man randomly picked up a few roses for Shen Changan: "Take it."

He was in a hurry to let Shen Changan leave.

"Aren't you going to wrap it up for me?" Shen Changan pointed to the sample bouquets in the store to attract customers, "How beautiful it looks like this."

The man took a bunch of sample flowers with a sullen face and stuffed it into Shen Chang'an's arms: "Take it away."

"Why is this so embarrassing?" He said embarrassedly, but his face showed greed.

A look of contempt appeared in the man's eyes, but it quickly disappeared: "It's alright, anyway, this store will be closed tomorrow, you take it to coax your wife. A big man, afraid of a woman like this, is it a man? ?"

"It's not ashamed to be afraid of my wife." Shen Changan hugged the flower and turned around and walked out. When he reached the door, he turned and stopped the man who was about to go back to the utility room, "By the way, boss, you spend so much money in the store, and you won't do it tomorrow. Business, what about these flowers?"

"What else can I do, give it away." The man saw that Shen Changan hadn't left, his face showed impatience, "If you still want it, take another hand. It's too late, I'm going to close the shop and rest. ."

"Then wait for me, I'll put this bunch of flowers on the car first, and then come over to the other one." Shen Changan chuckled, "Boss, you are such a generous person."

The man sneered. He walked to the door of the store and saw that Shen Changan's car was still parked across the road, so he walked back to the utility room, looked at the young men and women tied together by him in the corner, and said with a smile, "How is it, I know There are people across the wall, but you can only watch them leave, and then quietly wait for death, isn't it desperate?"

The store manager and brother Ming, whose mouths were gagged and tightly bound, could only stare at this crazy man with wide eyes.

"It's such a beautiful feeling to look at a living life and go to an extremely terrifying death..." Before the man's emotional expression was over, he heard footsteps coming from outside the door.

The twisted smile on his face disappeared instantly, and he put his index finger to his mouth: "Shh, let your hearts be quiet, and listen to the last hope, how you left with a greedy heart."

When the man came out, he saw that Shen Changan was holding two large bouquets of flowers in his hands. The bouquets were too large. It seemed a little difficult for him to hold two bouquets at the same time without anyone's help.

Seeing the man come out, he put down one of the bunches embarrassedly: "I just... just wanted to hug how heavy this flower is."

"Okay." The man said impatiently, "Get out of here, don't bother me."

Shen Changan hugged the flower, turned around and left, just when the man thought he would not come back and was about to slowly torture the two who were locked in the utility room, Shen Changan came back.

The man's face was gloomy, and he could hardly hide his madness.

He wanted to kill the guy who got in the way.

"I'm still a little embarrassed to take so many flowers from you. This is a gift." Shen Changan put a bag of souvenirs on the table. It was a box of toothpaste and low-quality towels given to passersby when a supermarket opened.

The man walked to the counter, his hand trembling slightly as he touched the drawer.

He couldn't control his desire to hurt people, and he wanted this long-winded, greedy man in front of him to disappear from this world.

It's a pity that this pair of good skins looks so good, but there is no heart that makes people feel like it.

Only sincere people are most beautiful when they are desperate.

Shen Changan put down his things, turned around and walked out. When he reached the door, he suddenly screamed: "Ah, boss, there is a person lying outside your house, and it seems that he is still bleeding."

how is this possible

He had just looked at the door, and there was nothing.

The man walked to the door with a gloomy face. He didn't expect that there was actually a person lying there. He narrowed his eyes and turned to Shen Changan and said, "Leave this to me, and take the flowers back to make your wife happy."

After speaking, he leaned over to look at the man lying on the ground, as if to determine whether the man was dead or alive.

Just between the lightning and sparks, the man lying on the ground suddenly burst out, a scissor leg locked the man's neck, and several people rushed out of the darkness.

"Police, don't move!"

The man struggled frantically, he didn't believe that he would be caught by the stupid police, it was impossible! When the cold handcuffs were placed on his wrist, he suddenly burst into tears.

"Why are you crying? It's the victim who was tied up by you who should be crying." The police rescued the shopkeeper and brother Ming who were tied up in the utility room, and the two kept thanking the police.

"This time, there are enthusiastic people who found something wrong in the store, fought wits with the gangsters, and delayed the time until we came to save you."

When he heard the police mention the "enthusiastic masses", Brother Ming knew that the person who found something wrong in the store must be Mr. Shen. Just now he heard in the utility room that Mr. Shen pretended to have never been to this store and lied that he was kicked out of the house by his wife, and knew that Mr. Shen must have found something wrong in the store.

The two frequently thanked Shen Changan and planned to repay their gratitude financially, but no matter what they said, Mr. Shen would not nod. In desperation, the shop owner had no choice but to say, "Mr. Shen, the two of us cannot repay your kindness for saving your life. From now on, we will send two bouquets of flowers representing friendship to Mr. Nian every week without charging any fees."

"This is good." Shen Changan was worried that he would not accept it, and the couple would feel uneasy, so he simply agreed.

"There are zombies!"

The man detained by the police suddenly pointed to the dark corner of the street, "There are zombies there!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a scream from the man, and a black shadow flew towards this side like a sharp arrow. Hei Ying's target was Yao Huailin, who was teaching the man.

He deliberately delayed the time tonight, just to wait for Yao Huailin and the others to come over. He couldn't determine whether the man had other weapons, let alone what the couple's situation was now, so calling the police was the best way.

When the black shadow rushed over, Shen Changan was still in a daze, and when he raised his head and saw something rushing towards Yao Huailin, he subconsciously stretched out his foot and kicked it.

Hearing a scream from the shadow, he immediately fell to the ground.

Is this the legendary zombie

Everyone looked at the "man" lying on the ground. His skin was a little blue, and his limbs looked a little stiff, but his speed was unexpectedly fast.

Yao Huailin thought with lingering fears, if Shen Changan didn't stop him just now, maybe he was really attacked by this strange person.

"Thank you." Yao Huailin thanked Shen Changan.

"No." Shen Changan waved his hand, stepped on the back of this strange man, and said to the police officer who was about to touch him, "Don't touch him for now, I'm worried that he will have an infectious disease." After speaking, he took the Dial a number from the phone.

Yao Huailin frowned when he heard the words, and said to the other police officers, "You are optimistic about this gangster, I will go over."

"Yao team!"

"How can I let you go."

"No, our brothers must not watch you die."

Shen Changan finished the phone call, and when he turned around, he saw Yao Huailin and a few police officers with red eyes, as if they had experienced a major farewell in life.

"What are you doing? It's not a movie about life and death." Shen Changan didn't let other people touch this strange person, "I just contacted a friend who knows something about this strange disease, let's first Wait until he comes over."

"Okay." Yao Huailin looked at the eccentric who was trampled by Shen Changan and could not struggle. He took out a pack of cigarettes and gave them to everyone. He took a sip. If this thing is the zombie rumored by the people recently, he must let the eccentric tie up. It can be regarded as a reassurance for ordinary people who are in a state of panic.

Shen Tu rushed over very quickly, he saw Shen Changan stepping on a dirty thing under his feet from a distance, he raised his brows and walked over to Shen Changan, "Changan, why did you catch such a thing? Son?"

"Cough." Shen Changan coughed dryly and introduced the identity of Shen Tu to Yao Huailin and others.

Shen Tu: "..."

He has a lot of knowledge and has dabbled in strange diseases. Is this him

He is a door god, why is he interested in strange diseases

"Shen Tu." Shen Changan asked Shen Tu in a low voice, "Is this under my feet a human or something else?"

"It's a person for the time being, but I think that if you step on like this, you may become a ghost." Shen Tu glanced at it and knew what was going on with this person, "There is a kind of living person who doesn't want to work hard, Just thinking about the things in the tombs of the dead. In those tombs that have been sleeping in the mud for hundreds or even thousands of years, who knows what strange things will come out?"

"so… "

"He was infected by the germs in the cemetery, don't worry, there is no infection." Shen Tu raised his voice, and after the police were relieved after hearing these words, he pulled Shen Changan away from the strange person, "This kind of tomb robbing Thief, cursed by the tomb."

"When a person dies, he can still curse?" Shen Changan was surprised, "Didn't you say that a person dies like a lamp goes out?"

"Then animals can still become humans, science?" Shen Tu asked back.

"Sorry, I have offended you." Shen Changan quickly apologized, thinking that Shen Tu was also a monster transformed from an animal or a plant.

Shen Tu: Huh

What's the matter with him

"When I came out just now, my husband told me to go back with you if we were on the way." Shen Tu said to Shen Changan after seeing that the police had taken away the wounded and the victims, "Tell me You are so big, you can fight, eat and dance, and you have merit and golden light on your body. Who can hurt you? But Mr. is always worried about this, worrying about that, alas. To be honest, people like you walk at night. It's all a kind of harm to ghosts."

Speaking of ghosts...

Shen Changan suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to be feeding the otaku ghost Chen Yuan for a while. Would he like to find some time to buy some delicious food to have a look

Shen Changan and Shen Tu returned home, and as soon as he went upstairs lightly, he saw the door of Daonian's room opened.

"You're back?" Daonian stood neatly behind the door, clearly as if he hadn't started to sleep.

"Dao Nian, it's so late, you haven't slept yet?" Shen Changan stood straight with his bowed waist, "I heard that going to bed early is good for developing bones, your legs are just right, maybe going to bed early can make your legs look better. stronger."

"I can't sleep." Daonian glanced at him, Chang'an's body seemed to have a faint smell of ancient tombs, and there were signs of... disrupting the rules.

He made a calculation in his heart, and his expression was a little subtle.

The fiancée that Shen Changan rescued today, according to the destined trajectory, was going to die at the hands of a perverted murderer, and the murderer also couldn't control his twisted hobbies because of the brutal killing of them, and killed many innocent old people. with children. The couple suffered all kinds of torture before their death, and after their death, their resentment was overwhelming, and the corpse gas that was contaminated with the ancient tomb finally turned into a demon.

And the policeman would also be bitten by the irrational tomb robber, and died on the spot.

Since then, there have been frequent deaths near that flower shop, and then…

Then all kinds of grievances condensed together, reborn the ancient beasts, and finally led to the death of many people and social unrest.

However, at the very beginning of this matter, Shen Changan met. The fiancée's life was saved, and because of Shen Changan's courageous behavior, he felt that there were still many good people in the world. After middle-aged and developed, he did a lot of charity to give back to the society.

The perverted murderer was stopped during the first murder and was finally put in a special mental hospital.

And the policeman named Yao Huailin will become a very powerful policeman with a sense of justice in the future.

But if he hadn't suddenly bought a bunch of red roses for Changan, Changan wouldn't have known the couple. Maybe when he drove past this flower shop, he wouldn't have noticed the abnormality of the flower shop at all.

All this seems to have started because of him, and because of Shen Changan he was redeemed.

So, it was his Heavenly Dao who secretly released water to the Vitality Dao unconsciously

"Dao Nian, what's wrong with you?" Shen Changan felt that Dao Nian's face was a little strange.

"It's okay." Daonian shook his head, "Go to bed early."

Shen Changan understood that Daonian stayed up so late because he was waiting for him to come back.

After living in Daonian's house, he seems to have gradually gotten used to it. When he comes home at night, there are people waiting. When he goes out in the morning, some people worry about whether he will have a good breakfast.

"If I come back late in the future, don't wait for me." Shen Changan sighed, "Staying up late is not good for your health."

Daonian looked at him with bottomless eyes, as if asking, how could he be so embarrassed to say this when he often stayed up late

Shen Changan lowered his head dejectedly and ran to his room.

"Chang'an." Daonian stopped him.

Shen Changan turned back and looked at Dao Nian standing in the middle of the glow: "Huh?"

"No matter where you go, as long as you come back, I will leave a lamp for you." Daonian looked at him with a very calm expression and his tone was not deliberately serious, but Shen Changan felt that Daonian said this sentence When speaking, be very careful.

"Just staying up late for you, it's worth it."

The author has something to say: Dao Nian: The love story of hard work, old boy
