Rules Strange Story: My Family is Not Normal

Chapter 129: The Enmity between Jim and the Castle

  Chapter 129 The grievances between Jim and the castle

  Zhou Bai didn't dare to say the answer directly, so he could only ask tentatively first.

   "Do you have any grievances with that old castle?"

  The shop owner shook his head, "That's not true."

   Zhou Bai heaved a sigh of relief after listening.

   Picked up the coffee next to him and took a sip.

   Then, I was about to chat with the owner of the small shop about things in the castle.

   Unexpectedly, I heard the other party continue.

   "However, most people in the town have grievances with that old castle."

  Suddenly, Zhou Bai took a sip of his coffee and almost spit it out.

What?

   Have grievances with most people in the town?

  I'll go, then it's better to have a grudge with you.

  The owner of the small shop didn't know that Zhou Bai was actually wishing to have a grudge against him in his heart.

  So, he continued to speak heartlessly.

   "I heard that the castle now has a new heir.

   I don't know which unlucky guy inherited this castle? "

   Zhou Bai held his forehead with one hand.

  The shop owner asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

   Zhou Bai replied helplessly, "Is there a possibility? The unlucky guy you mentioned is me?"

  The shop owner's eyes widened in surprise.

   But looking at Zhou Bai's gorgeous attire, it seems reasonable.

  So, he hastily apologized to Zhou Bai non-stop.

   "Sorry, sorry.

  I didn't mean to say you were unlucky.

   Inheriting that old castle, in fact, is not so unlucky.

hehe. Don't worry too much about it. "

   Zhou Bai sighed silently.

   can only continue to ask.

   "What about the bald man with the chainsaw? Does he also have grudges against the old castle?"

  The shop owner nodded.

   Leaning closer to Zhou Bai's side, he whispered mysteriously.

   "I heard that ten years ago, on his wedding night, his wife mysteriously disappeared.

   When they found her, they could only see her tomb, and it was buried near the old castle. "

  When Zhou Bai heard it, he immediately got goosebumps.

  The previous owner of the castle took a photo with every grave.

   It's hard not to doubt that he has nothing to do with the deaths of these people.

   Zhou Bai thought of the tombs surrounding the castle, and the **** chainsaw in the bald man's hand.

   Immediately felt a little creepy.

   "Then do you know what happened ten years ago?"

  The shop owner shook his head.

   “Ten years ago, I was young.

  The old people are not allowed to discuss this matter.

   So, I don't know exactly what happened.

  Don't ask others about this matter.

  If you happen to ask someone who has grievances with the castle, you may be in danger. "

   Zhou Bai nodded in agreement.

  But if you can’t ask any more, it will be difficult to continue exploring this line.

   Zhou Bai always felt in his heart that what happened ten years ago might be the root of all the strange things in this castle.

  The new wife of the bald chainsaw man was buried near the castle ten years ago.

  The previous owner of the castle also died ten years ago.

   Is there any connection between them?

  Perhaps, to find out the date of construction of other tombs, some clues may be obtained,

   Zhou Bai recalled the photo album in the castle.

  It's a pity that the dates of the construction of each of the tombs above are not very clear.

  It seems that we still have to find some time to take a good look around those tombs.

   Zhou Bai secretly made a decision in his heart.

   Then continue to ask the shop owner for news.

   The two chatted until now, and the time has come to 11:30 noon.

  It's already close to meal time.

   As a result, the small shop also continued one after another, and other customers came.

"Jingle Bell"

  The bell on the door of the small shop reminds the boss to greet the guests.

   "Sorry, there are guests coming, I have to go there first."

  The boss spoke to Zhou Bai, then stood up from the chair, walked towards the door, and warmly greeted the guests who came in.

  There are still many questions Zhou Bai wants to ask.

  But it can't hinder others from doing business.

  I could only sit on the seat by myself, picked up the fries that were already cold on the table, and put them in my mouth.

   While eating the food on the table slowly, he summed up the information he had just obtained in his heart.

  The owner of the bakery shop has a bad reputation, and there are doubts about whether he can make Christmas cakes.

  When buying candy, pay more attention, not every candy can be called Christmas candy.

   There is also the bald chainsaw man, he has a grudge against the old castle, in the future, he should be avoided as much as possible.

  As for the audio-visual store and the decoration store, these two stores are also not normal.

  Especially video stores.

   In addition, Zhou Bai still doesn't know where to buy pine trees.

   It seems that we still have to find an opportunity and ask the boss for more information.

  At this time, Zhou Bai also felt a little hungry.

   began to enjoy their own lunch.

   When it was time for the official meal, the number of customers in the shop began to increase.

  The boss is only himself.

   Not only have to go to the kitchen to cook, but also greet guests, and also collect money at the front desk.

   Too busy.

   In the following time, Zhou Bai really couldn't find a chance to talk to him.

  So, I had to finish the food on the table.

   Then go to the counter and ask him to pay.

  Before leaving, Zhou Bai asked by the way, "Do you know where I can buy pine trees?"

  When the shop owner heard that Zhou Bai wanted to buy pine trees, he immediately showed him a sympathetic expression.

   "In the whole town, only Jim sells pine trees.

   That is, the one you just mentioned, the bald chainsaw man. "

   Zhou Bai didn't know, this was already the few times he had been hit critically today.

  The shop owner is right, he is really unlucky.

  The shop owner was afraid that Zhou Bai would be too depressed, so he tried to comfort him.

   "It's all right, although Jim has a bad temper, but fortunately, pine trees are not necessary.

  Let’s not buy it, why not? "

   Zhou Bai smiled wryly, not feeling that he had been comforted.

   But I still thanked the boss and walked out of the shop.

  He looked at the time on his phone.

   It's only one o'clock in the afternoon.

   There are still two hours before the agreed time to go to the bakery to learn how to make cakes.

   So Zhou Bai wandered around the town.

  He looked for some shops selling snacks, and then went in to ask if they sold candy.

  Most of the time, the answer is yes.

  However, when Zhou Bai told them that what he bought were Christmas candies, they were all laughed at by the other party.

   "What Christmas candy?

   These candies got Christmas, isn’t it Christmas candy?

   Besides, who buys candy now at Christmas? "

   Zhou Bai felt that what they said made sense.

   I felt that what they said was wrong.

  So, in the end, I didn't buy a single candy, so I walked out of these snack shops.
