Chapter 146 Booth and the Vase

  Zhou Bai looked at the little boy in the photo and was silent for a long time before closing the book.

  He put the book in his hand back in its original place.

   After sitting on the seat for a while, he opened the door of the study.

  At this time, he suddenly saw a pair of blue eyes appearing outside the door, looking at him.

   Zhou Bai was taken aback by the suddenness.

  Bootz didn't know how long he had been standing outside the door of the study.

  I saw his face without any expression.

  A pair of blue eyes, just like this, looked straight at Zhou Bai.

  Zhou Bai suddenly felt that his back, involuntarily, began to feel cold.

  When Zhou Bai was in the study, he rarely locked the door.

  So, Boots may have noticed something unusual.

   Zhou Bai looked at Boots, paused, and then asked.

   "Has the upstairs been cleaned?"

  Booz lowered his head when he heard Zhou Bai's question.

   "It's been cleaned."

   Zhou Bai passed by him and walked downstairs.

  Booz looked at Zhou Bai's back, and then looked towards the study.

  In the study room, Zhou Bai put the children's book back in the corner.

   If you don't look carefully, no one will pay attention to its existence.

  Bootz's eyes did not fall on the book.

   After just scanning around, he turned off the light in the study, and followed Zhou Bai to the stairs.

  Zhou Bai walked to the lobby on the first floor, found a seat and sat down.

   But Boots stood behind Zhou Bai, with his eyes down, he could see the top of Zhou Bai's head.

  If he wanted to, he could actually do it anytime, directly killing Zhou Bai.

   Zhou Bai didn't speak, nor did he turn his head to look at him.

   But Boots stood there without making any movements.

  The audience watching the live broadcast also felt the subtle atmosphere between their master and servant.

   Zhou Bai leaned back on the chair.

  In my mind, the face of that little boy overlapped with that of Boots.

   It made him feel as if he was in a ball of thread, and finally he was about to find the end of the thread.

  If Buzz wanted Zhou Bai's life, then after spending so many days together, he would have hundreds of chances to do it.

   But he doesn't have any, so Zhou Bai doesn't have to worry about it yet.

   It's just that he is the son of the previous Gubao, but he doesn't inherit the Gubao, but let Zhou Bai inherit it, and lurk by Zhou Bai's side.

This is why?

   Zhou Bai couldn't think of a reasonable answer to this.

  In the hall of the old castle.

  Neither of them spoke.

   Just sitting alone and standing alone.

  The audience watching the live broadcast raised their hearts and nervously waited for the next follow-up.

  At this moment, Zhou Bai finally spoke, breaking the silence between the two of them.

   "Booz, tell me, are you my friend?"

  Booz froze when he heard Zhou Bai's question.

  He didn't know the intention of Zhou Bai's question, so he was a little nervous and didn't know how to answer it.

   "Sir, I don't know.

   I never had a friend. "

   Zhou Bai also fell silent.

   After coming over for a while, he continued.

   "I think you should be considered my friend."

  Booz stared blankly at Zhou Bai's sitting back.

  Just listen to Zhou Bai continue talking.

   "On the 24th, you, as my friend, will go to the party together, okay?"

  After Zhou Bai finished speaking, he turned to look at Boots.

  Booz suddenly felt that he didn't know how to put his hands.

"good…

   All right, sir. "

  Booz quickly lowered his head.

  Zhou Bai smiled, then got up and walked back to the room on the second floor.

  He went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into pajamas, and then lay down on the bed to sleep.

  The next morning, at 6 o'clock, Zhou Bai was woken up by the alarm clock.

  He turned his head and looked out the window, the sunlight had not yet entered the room.

  He turns off the alarm clock and goes back to sleep.

  And outside the room, because of his alarm clock ringing, there was a "bang bang bang bang" sound.

  It felt like someone was frightened by Zhou Bai's alarm clock.

   Zhou Bai pressed the alarm clock, not intending to open the door.

   Instead, wrap the quilt tightly, and then fall asleep.

  It was around eight o'clock in the morning, and the sun shone on Zhou Bai's face.

  He blocked the sun with his hands, and then sat up from the bed.

  Booz still stood outside the door waiting for Zhou Bai.

   "Sir, I seem to get up early today."

   Zhou Bai looked at him.

   And he immediately lowered his head.

"It is late.

  I wanted to go out early, but unexpectedly, I couldn't get out of bed. "

  Bootz smiled immediately.

   "Then I, go prepare breakfast for the husband."

   After finishing speaking, he went downstairs.

  Zhou Bai went to the toilet to brush his teeth and wash his face, changed into the clothes he was going out with, and then walked down the stairs.

  The vase next to the stairs on the first floor is placed in an inconspicuous place.

   Zhou Bai stopped beside the vase, and looked at it.

   Below the vase is a low column made of plaster.

  Based on Zhou Bai's years of experience watching TV dramas, this vase should be a switch.

  However, Zhou Bai didn't know what kind of switch it was.

   Zhou Bai glanced in the direction of the restaurant.

  Booze's figure, far away, is walking towards the hall.

  So, Zhou Bai stretched out his hand, as if he was going to touch the vase.

   Then, he heard an anxious shout coming from the direction where Boots was.

"gentlemen!"

   Zhou Bai withdrew his hand, showing a puzzled expression, and looked at Boots.

   "What's wrong?"

  Booz walked a few steps quickly and came in front of Zhou Bai.

   His eyes still looked at the vase.

   "Sorry, sir.

  Yes... Yes, breakfast is ready.

   If you don't eat it quickly, it will be cold.

   It’s not good if it’s cold. "

  Booz is looking for a clumsy excuse for his gaffe just now,

   Zhou Bai pretended not to notice his abnormality.

   Then, he walked to the restaurant.

  Bootz looked back at the vase, and then followed Zhou Bai towards the restaurant.

  After breakfast, Zhou Bai sat in the living room, picked up the photo album, and flipped through it again.

  Booz stood behind Zhou Bai, so Zhou Bai couldn't know what kind of expression he had when he saw his father's photo.

   Zhou Bai looked at all the photos on the album, and then closed the album again.

   Today is the fifth day.

   Zhou Bai was still two friends away from being invited.

   And candy, records, candles, have not been done yet.

  Candy can be solved with money, so the problem is not big.

   As for records and candles, this is a bit of a headache.

  Thinking of this, Zhou Bai felt more and more that time was very tight.

  He turned to look at Boots.

   "Let's go, drive me to the quiet town."

   After finishing speaking, he walked towards the door.

  Although it is still impossible to judge whether the rule about the record is true or false.

  However, Zhou Bai still felt that he had to go to that record store to take a look.

  So, he got into the car driven by Boots and drove towards the direction of the record store in the quiet town.
