Midnight Bookstore

“Doctor Wang, thank you for your guidance. Listening to your advice is better than reading ten years of books. I still have a long way to go in terms of psychological counseling. I hope to catch up with you as soon as possible.”

The young nursing home psychologist bowed to Wang Ke very sincerely,

this was admiration from the bottom of his heart,

because just now, not only did Wang Ke answer his long-standing questions in several aspects, he also made a copy of some of his own classic cases over the years as well as the analysis of his illness to himself.

Every industry had nothing to do with foreign affairs. In fact, there was a tradition of keeping a low profile. However, Wang Ke’s attitude of sincerely guiding the younger generation had indeed moved and conquered him.

“You’re welcome, Dr. Zhao. If there’s a chance in the future, we can have more exchanges. After all, as you can see, I’m expected to stay here for a long time.”

“It’s my honor. Thank you.”

Dr. Zhao bowed again and left.

Wang Ke took a deep breath and sat back behind the chair. After coughing a few times, he took out a cigar box from the drawer and prepared to light a cigar.

He could give people a feeling of spring breeze when dealing with anyone. This was his work habit and also his philosophy of life.

Before he picked up the cigar, a message was sent on his phone. It was a text message from an unmarked phone. There were only three words:

“I’m here.”

Wang Ke replied with two words:

“Come in.”

Soon, the door was pushed open. The internal security system of the sanatorium was very strict. The fact that the other party could enter directly showed that he was of an extraordinary status.

The other party was wearing a black coat and his figure was a little hunched. When he walked in, he habitually closed the door and sat down on the sofa to pour himself some tea.

This was a person who was almost 50 years old. You could not call him an old man because at 50 years old, he was not considered old

You couldn’t call him a middle-aged man either, because he wasn’t considered old anymore

In short..,

this was a very awkward age,

it was so awkward that the half-black and half-white hair on his head was telling him everything.

“Cough cough…”

The other party coughed heavily twice. He took out a medicine bottle from his bosom, poured out two capsules, and drank some water. He tilted his head, and only heard two gurgling sounds. Then, he lowered his head heavily and panted continuously.

“I’m dying.”

The Man’s voice was a little hoarse, but it did not give people a sense of weakness. Instead, it was like a dormant tiger. Anyone who dared to look down on him would suffer a backlash.

“I know.”

Wang Ke nodded and put down the cigar. He knew that the man in front of him could not smell the smoke now. If he wanted to live for a few more days.

The man raised his head and looked at the cigar. He cracked his dry lips and licked them with his tongue. He looked very drooling, but he still yawned and lowered his head again. He spread his hands and looked at the calluses on his palms,

he said in a deep voice,

“Two years ago, I asked if you needed me to do it. You said to wait a little longer. Do you know what I felt at that time?”

“I felt like I wanted to kill you.”

Wang ke answered calmly.

The old man smiled, a little pleased with himself. “My Children, including my private doctor, all said that it was quite a medical miracle that I could live until now.

But they didn’t know why.”

“So, you have to thank me.”

“Thank you?”

The man suddenly raised his head. His eyes were bloodshot as he growled hoarsely:

“Thank you for making me suffer for two more years?

“Two years ago, when I was diagnosed and the Doctor gave me three months’time, I frantically called you and tried to return the favor I owed you. But you refused. You said to wait!

“It was you…”

“Who made me unwilling to leave owing you the favor.”

“It was you…”

“Who made me suffer two more years of pain and suffering for nothing!”!

I thank you,

i really have to thank you!”

“Two years ago, it was indeed not suitable,”Wang Ke replied.

“You were the one who chickened out.”

“Yes, I was the one who chickened out. Two years ago, those two people just got out of prison. If they suddenly died, it would be easy for them to be linked to me.

“I can’t have any unexpected risks,

“I also can’t have any unexpected risks!”

“Hehe, I know that it’s not easy for a child who came out of an orphanage to struggle to this day. Therefore, he can endure this kind of hatred for fear of losing everything he has.

“Do you know..,

“With my experience of living for half a hundred years, sometimes the more afraid of losing something, the easier it is to lose something. Moreover, living like this is too tiring and not worth it.”

“You’re wrong. It’s not that I’m reluctant to part with money and status.”

Wang Ke shook his head.

“That’s true. If you go to Shanghai or other institutions, your development should be better. Cough, cough, cough… then, what are you reluctant to part with?”

“My wife and my daughter.”

“That bastard counts?”

Wang Ke suddenly widened his eyes, and there was a deep luster in his eyes.

“You rarely get angry.”The man laughed hoarsely again. “It seems that you are not pretending to be a kind father. How did you hypnotize yourself to treat a child who is not your daughter as your own daughter?”

“She is my daughter.

No matter..,

she..,

is a person..,

or a ghost!”

“Okay, okay, okay. She is your daughter, your precious daughter.”

The man stood up and gritted his teeth,

“I’m a tiger. My teeth are about to loosen. I’m really scared. I’m afraid that when you ask me to return a favor, my teeth won’t be able to bite people to death.”

As he spoke,

the Man took out a pistol,

he waved it in front of Wang Ke and said,

“When you contacted me, I took it out. You know what it means to use a gun in the country.”

Wang Ke looked at the man and tapped his fingers on the table:

“When I contacted you, I didn’t know about your situation. Until we met a while ago, i…”

“No need to talk nonsense. The favor I owe you is what I owe you. As long as I’m still alive, I should return this thing to you!

“It’s only right and proper,

“I believe in this for my whole life.

“Even though I know that if I shoot this gun, it might destroy the accumulation of my previous life and the accumulation that my children want me to leave behind, I still don’t regret it.”

Wang Ke shrugged. His persuasion was just a gesture, not a real attempt at persuasion.

“It’s been two years. If those two people die, there should be no problem. At least, it won’t attract too much attention. Moreover, once the investigation is done, I can help you carry it all, and it won’t fall on your head.”

The man put the gun back on the coffee table and sat back on the sofa. After standing for a while, he felt a little tired.

“The doctor told me to use crutches, but I can’t use that thing. When I was young, I pointed at those old men who used crutches and told my brothers beside me that if I had to use crutches to walk in the future, I would rather put the muzzle into my mouth and pull the trigger myself.”

“Okay.”

“However, at the end of the day, I suddenly realized that I was at a disadvantage.”

“What’s Wrong?”

The man reached out and touched the muzzle of the gun on the coffee table:

“I can’t use it anymore.”

“Why?”

“Because the two people it was supposed to kill are already dead.”

“Dead?”

Wang Ke slowly stood up,

“You had someone kill them?”

“Ha…”

The man spread his legs and smiled:

“I asked someone to investigate. After these two were released from prison, they soon hooked up again. I even called a few people to dig graves in the wild.

In the end, they were unlucky and died inside.

The police..,

are investigating this matter..,

if I didn’t know you well, I would have thought that you looked down on me, a sick tiger. I paid them to take revenge for you.”

“I didn’t.”

“I know you didn’t, because you would have let them die so easily. I wanted to help you capture them and let you deal with them. I was a little angry, so I had to do it myself. I used to be a gangster, so I know this best.”

“Clap!”

The man clapped his hands,

“But now there’s no other way. Unless you go to Hell and hook their souls back, there’s really no other way. They’ve probably been reincarnated. hahahaha… cough, cough, cough…”

“In the end..,

“You, Wang Ke, still can’t take revenge with your own hands.”

“It’s good that you’re dead…”

“Ha, I just can’t stand your tone and attitude of being open-minded about everything. Damn it, what are you pretending for? You’ve been pretending for so long, aren’t you tired?”

The man stood up and limped to leave.

“Gun,”Wang Ke reminded him.

“It’s a toy for your daughter to play with. The security here is so strict. How can I bring the real thing in?”

“Don’t you look like a toy?”

After the man left,

wang Ke turned his head and looked at his wife, who was still sitting in the yard in a daze.

His wife seemed to have sensed something. She turned her head to look at Wang Ke and smiled at him.

“The meat soup is almost ready. We can start eating soon.”

Wang ke shouted.

“Okay, let’s eat meat.”His wife smiled happily.

Wang Ke put on his apron again,

he walked into the kitchen,

when he was cutting the last of the scallions and leeks with a knife,

he looked at the edge of the knife,

he was stunned for a few seconds,

he murmured,

“He died just like that?”

… ..

More than twenty years ago,

at the Qinzao Orphanage in Tongcheng harbor,

it was time to eat,

every child was given a piece of plum vegetable meat by the aunt. In this era, eating meat in this place was indeed a very happy thing.

Although the Chinese were gradually getting rid of the era when they couldn’t afford to eat food or meat, the conditions in the orphanage were always slower than those outside.

The two children sat together and ate,

the older child stared at the piece of meat for a long time before picking up his chopsticks and placing it into the bowl of the child who was smaller than him.

“Brother, aren’t you going to eat?”

“No, you eat.”

The shorter child did not stand on ceremony and did not know how to be humble. He happily ate the two pieces of meat in his bowl until his lips were stained with oil.

“Ah Ze, in the future, this brother will earn money well and earn a lot of money.”

The shorter boy picked up the rice grain from his mouth and put it into his mouth. He asked in a casual manner,

“What do you want to earn money for?”

“To earn money and marry a wife.”

“Marry a wife for what?”

“After you marry a wife, give her money to buy me meat every day and cook it for me so that I can eat meat every day!”

“Is that what you mean by marrying your wife?”

“That’s right. What’s the point of marrying a wife who won’t buy you meat and eat it?”?

The gatekeeper, uncle, Uncle Qin has always been showing off to us,

he said that his wife would buy him meat and cook it for him every now and then,

so..,

when I marry my wife..,

i’ll make money and be responsible for buying her meat!”

“Oh, I understand.”

“Ah Ze, what about you?”

“Brother, if you have meat, then I have meat.”

… ..

In the forest,

two zombies were still digging rapidly,

they did not know fatigue,

they did not know pain,

they only knew to complete the orders from above.

The pit was going deeper and deeper at a speed visible to the naked eye,

slowly, the beam structure of an ancient temple was revealed.

In the distance,

officer Zhang Yanfeng, who had always been paid attention to protecting his worldview,

felt that his worldview had exploded all over the ground,

from time to time, he would look at the two walkers walking out of the tree,

from time to time, he would look at Zhou Ze, who was standing there motionless,

brother,

is this the worldview that you say protects me?

Is this the worldview that you say allows me to continue living a normal life?

You let me see this,

how am I supposed to live a normal life?

Underground,

lord Earth, who had already felt the chill above his head, was angry and shouting below,

cursing:

“You are committing a sin!

Committing a sin!

They invaded my temple and mausoleum, and I killed them as an example to others, as a matter of course!

But I did not imprison their souls, and let their souls go to hell and be reincarnated!

There is a connection between the souls and the bodies,

therefore, people pay the most attention to the dead bodies buried in peace, because this will affect the situation of the dead souls in Hell.

You now turn the two bodies into zombies,

this is to let the two dead souls even in Hell Forever lost the chance of reincarnation,

will suffer the endless suffering of hell,

and never be reincarnated!”
