A Real Man Isn’t Afraid of a Little Demon

    Yu Chu had to go to the kitchen, look left and right, put the mobile phone on the knife holder next to the gas stove, make sure that the wok and cutting board are all in the camera, put on his sleeves and prepare to start .

    "Wait." Xie Xingmu's voice came from the phone, "Where's the apron?"

    "Aprons?" Yu Chu stopped wiping his sleeves.

    "That's what I wear."

    The screen on the opposite side began to shake, and there appeared the pink cat that Yu Chu had seen and the words Tiantian Supermarket.

    "I know about apron, but I don't." Yu Chu explained.

      Wearing it on the head, it will not be contaminated with oil fumes."

    Yu Chu began to wave the spatula to stir-fry under the command of Xie Xingmu, and everything went in order.

      Just a spoon...a spoon in a seasoning jar, of course!"

    Xie Xingmu looked at his bright eyes, and suddenly pressed the phone down to focus the camera on the kitty cat on the apron, he smiled where Yu Chu could not see, and said: " not interested."

     Hang up the video call.

    He put away his mobile phone and was about to go out to eat. He paused as soon as he turned around, and Duoduo got off the table at some point, staring at him from the side of the cooking table.

    Duo Duo asked curiously, "Uncle, who are you talking to?"

    Xie Xingmu said, "It's my colleague."

    "Oh, what are you talking about?"

    "We are talking about work." Xie Xingmu took off the apron from his waist and hung it on the shelf.

    Duoduo said: "But I seem to hear you talking about fried beef diced." He bit the spoon in his hand and added: "I want to eat fried beef diced."

    "Didn't you make your favorite cola chicken wings today?" Xie Xingmu said.

     Duoduo said: "I want to eat fried beef diced now."

    Xie Xingmu picked him up with one hand, tucked him under his arm, then walked to the dining table and put him on a chair to prepare: "I don't have fried beef diced today, I'll do it tomorrow, and now This bowl of rice is clean."

    Duo Duo scooped up a spoonful of tomatoes and eggs with a spoon and said, "This is diced fried beef." After speaking, he fed it into his mouth with a whimper, chewing and saying, "It's delicious." He scooped another spoonful of rice mixed with soup into his mouth, and said vaguely, "This is also fried diced beef."

    Xie Xingmu shook his head and began to eat the bowl of rice in front of him.

    At night, Yu Chu closed his eyes and lay on the bed in his new bedroom, listening to the sounds around him.

      home.

    His sleep has not been very good, only on those nights when he and Zhou Mu slept in the same room on the island, did he slept very deeply.

    I don't know when I fell asleep in a daze. I was dreaming all night in the second half of the night. I fell off a cliff and fell endlessly in the air. the sky above...

    When he finally woke up, the sky was already bright, he blinked and lay on the bed for a while before turning over to get up to wash.

    The whole day, he stayed in the house and watched TV series. When he was hungry, he went to stir-fry the leftovers from yesterday, and then poured it into a large plate while watching TV. while eating.

    It wasn't until the sun went down that he was ready to go out and find a job.

    He stood in front of the mirror in the small bathroom and looked at himself, thinking that this white short-sleeved T-shirt might not be suitable. The shirt and trousers he wore when he fell off the cliff were still there, he found the paper bag that Xie Xingmu gave him, and turned it inside out.

    The fabric of this suit is good, it's okay to be soaked in water, but it has not been ironed, and it is a little wrinkled. He spread his shirt flat on the coffee table, went to boil a pot of boiling water, and poured it into a glass as an iron.

    Several shirtless people were sitting in the flower bed outside the building, and they stopped talking when they saw Yu Chu, and their eyes were fixed on him.

    Yu Chu knew that although his current face could be described as beautiful, his face was still too harmless and docile. With his chameleon-like instinct, he had already noticed that if he was wearing this face, he would be more favorable by pretending to be obedient, so he restrained the charm that radiated from his gestures.

    He ignored those staring eyes, walked through the small yard, and walked in the narrow and rugged alley.

    As for looking for a job, he has neither plans to study nor training courses, but has his own plans.

    He casually went into a restaurant for dinner, and the proprietress sat behind the cashier to clear up today's running water and asked, "What to eat?"

    Yu Chu looked at the recipe hanging on the wall: "Beef noodles."

    "Beef sold out."

    "What about the miscellaneous sauce noodles?"

    "The miscellaneous sauce is also sold out." The lady boss said without looking up, "We are going to close today."

    Yu Chu asked: "What else can I eat?"

    "There are still custard buns left." said the proprietress.

     Custard buns? Yu Chu frowned.

    He never eats sweet buns, and they are sweet buns with a milky taste, so he left after hearing this, bought a meat pie in the store next to him, and walked down the street while eating.

    The meat patty was very oily, and the paper bag on the outside was soaked with a layer of oil stains. After he ate half of it, he looked left and right, and saw a trash can not far away, and put the rest put the cake on the trash can lid.

    He was waiting at the bus stop next to him, glanced at the trash can just now, and saw a cleaner throwing his paper bag with cakes into the trash.

    Yu Chu just wanted to open and close his mouth.

    The bus slowly entered the station, Yu Chu got on the bus, got off at a certain platform after half an hour, walked forward for a while, and turned to a street on the left.

    The city's nightlife is about to begin.

    Yu Chu picked a random house, and just before entering the gate, he was stopped by two strong men in black vests and full of tattoos: "Wait, minors are not allowed to enter."

    "I'm an adult." Yu Chu said.

    The two strong men were unmoved and did not let go.

    Yu Chu didn't want to show them the documents, but took out four banknotes, rolled them into two small rolls, inserted them into the vests on their chests, and pressed them with his hands.

    A strong man shook his head at the door and made a gesture of entering.

    The music in the bar was terrific. Although it was still early, there were already a lot of people sitting in the booth, and there were also people on the dance floor wiggling along with the music.

    The bartender looked up at him and said, "Milk and juice."

    Several guests who were drinking were sitting next to them. When they heard this, they all looked at Yu Chu and laughed.

    Yu Chu didn't get angry, and said with a smile: "Then give me a glass of milk and juice."

      He instructed a barman next to him, "Go to the door to see Daqiang and the others. Why did you put the students in?"

    Yu Chu said helplessly: "I'm an adult, don't be afraid." After speaking, he stretched out a leg to block the bar staff's way, "Don't go, I'm not a student, I'm an adult."

    The bartender stopped and turned to look at the bartender, a little unsure. During the stalemate, Yu Chu saw a box of poker on the left side of the bar, so he reached out and took it, slowly pulled out the cards inside, handed it to the bartender, and said, "Wash it."

    The bartender didn't understand what he wanted to do, so he didn't move. A drinker beside him said with great interest, "I'll come."

    This is a middle-aged guest in a casual suit, Yu Chu smiled at him, turned his hand, and let him take away the whole stack of playing cards.

    The guest shuffled the cards back and forth three times, and then handed them back to Yu Chu. After Yu Chu took it, he turned the cards face down, quickly overlapped them in his hands, and shuffled them twice.

    His slender white fingers flipped quickly, and his movements were extremely skilled. During the whole process, his eyes were only on the bartender.

    After shuffling the cards, he handed the flipped playing cards to the guest again and said, "Draw four cards at will."

    The middle-aged guest smiled, and sure enough, he selected four of them and placed them on the bar.

    Yu Chu flipped the left one, and gently flipped it upwards, it was an ace of hearts, he flipped the next one, the ace of spades, and continued flipping, the ace of clubs, when he flipped the last one, One, when cube A also appeared on the bar, the two onlookers all wowed, put down their wine glasses and began to applaud.

    The middle-aged guests also laughed and applauded, saying, "Yes, it's interesting."

    Yu Chu put away the playing cards, raised his eyebrows and smiled at the bartender: "Now believe I am an adult?"

    The bartender bowed slightly: "Sir, I think you recommend the Misty Forest, which has a sweet and sour taste, with the refreshing and fruity aroma of green plum wine, you will definitely like it."

    "Okay, let's have a cup of Misty Forest." Yu Chu said.

    "This glass of wine is my invitation." The middle-aged guest who started to help Yu Chu shuffle the cards suddenly interjected.

    Yu Chu turned to him and nodded slightly: "Thank you."

    The bartender quickly put a glass of prepared wine in front of Yu Chu and continued to do his own business. Yu Chu picked up the glass and drank slowly, turning to look at the people on the dance floor.

    "Little brother, I think you play cards very well, are you interested in helping me play a few games? If you win by three or seven points, if you lose, it's mine." The middle-aged man finished drinking. After drinking, he still did not leave, but began to talk to Yu Chu.

    Yu Chu turned to look at him, and said indifferently, "Whatever."

    The middle-aged man put the empty wine glass on the table and winked meaningfully at him: "Okay, then go to the private room upstairs to make a fortune."

    Yu Chu used to run errands for the owner of the casino. In addition to being familiar with all the rules of the casino, he also practiced good gambling skills. There are often red-eyed bosses in casinos who know the way and want to get it back but don’t have the skills, so they will invite some people with high gambling skills to help gamble, and they will pay the corresponding remuneration after winning the money.

    In fact, the first time he entered the bar, he quickly looked at the people inside and focused on the middle-aged man beside the bar.

      This kind of bar usually has an underground casino. Seeing his unlucky look and frustration, he should have just lost money and came out for two drinks.

    He guessed right.

    At midnight, the bar door was pushed open, and Yu Chu came out, followed by a middle-aged man with a red face.

    "I'll send someone to take you back, it's three o'clock now, it's not easy to take a taxi." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he handed a black plastic bag to Yu Chu, which contained 50,000 cash, " Besides, it's not safe for you to carry money like this."

    Yu Chu no longer shied away, and said, "Thank you, brother."

    "Hey, you're welcome to me."

     Saying goodbye to the middle-aged man, Yu Chu followed the two tall security guards to the parking lot. Some barbecue stalls are still open, and the occasional drunk can be seen staggering along the street.

    The parking lot is on the ground floor of the adjacent shopping mall, and the exit is in the other direction. Yu Chu and two security guards took the elevator down to the negative floor.

    "No. 23, Area B." A security guard read the parking space given by Brother Cheng and went there, while another security guard came down to accompany Yu Chu, and waited for someone to drive the car over .

    There was no one in the huge parking lot, it was empty and quiet, Yu Chu was standing next to the security guard, remembering that when he started to check the time, there were two unread messages displayed on WeChat, so he took out his mobile phone and opened it Come and see.

    Unsurprisingly, the information was sent by Xie Xingmu.

    Xie Xingmu: Where?

    Xie Xingmu: What are you doing?

    One was sent at 11 o'clock in the evening, and the other was sent at 1 o'clock in the morning. Yu Chu wondered why this person was sending a message to him so late, and he hesitated whether to return one now.

    Just clicked on the input interface, and suddenly heard an abnormal sound from the depths of the parking lot.

    He followed the prestige and found that it was the direction the security guard was leaving. After a short pause, he quickly turned his head to look behind him.

    The security guard beside him was still staring at the direction his companion was driving, muttering why he hadn't come over yet, Yu Chu looked at those people, and asked in a low voice, "What weapons do you bring? ?"

    "Ah, what?" The security guard asked inexplicably, and immediately reacted, he also turned his head to look behind him, then pulled out a rubber stick behind his waist, and shouted vigilantly: " Hey, stop, who are you?"

    When those few people heard the question, not only did not stop, but raised the iron rod in their hands and rushed towards this side. Seeing that the security guard was stupid, Yu Chu stood there motionless, and shouted, "Run." He rushed out into the depths of the garage.

    The security guard hurriedly hugged the rubber stick and ran in the other direction like a rabbit.

    This underground parking lot is very large. After Yu Chu rushed forward for a while, listening to the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer behind him, he suddenly got into the gap between the two cars, blocking the He walked forward with a cat on his waist behind his body.

    The crackling footsteps caught up, Yu Chu looked out the rear window of a car and saw only four people coming, and the others chased the security guard.

    The four people slowed down, the three of them looked forward along the driveway, and one came over in the direction of Yu Chu.

    Yu Chu squatted down, stuffed the plastic bag with the money in his hand under the car, his eyes wandered around, he picked up a thick hemp rope and held it in his hand.

    The sound of rustling footsteps was getting closer and closer, he looked at the figure on the ground on the left, and moved to the right quietly.

    The thug with both sticks looked around vigilantly, and squatted down to look at the bottom of the car on both sides, just as he crept around the back of an off-road vehicle, Yu Guang suddenly glanced at the car window beside him On the glass, a figure was pounced from the roof of the car behind him.

    The thug's pupils dilated at that moment, but before he could turn around, his neck was severely strangled by the rope, and at the same time, the iron rod in his hand was kicked away, and fell into a stack of cardboard boxes behind, and only issued A slight muffled sound.

    Yu Chu was half-kneeling on the roof of the car, wrapped a rope around the man's neck, and then quickly slid down the other end of the car, pulling the rope on his shoulders with both hands, using the roof as a fulcrum , pull forward with force.

    All this happened in a short period of time. The thug was already strangled outside the car door.

    Yu Chu gritted his teeth hard, and his thin wrists collapsed to the extreme.

    The thugs struggled to kick the car door with their feet, making a thudding sound. After the two thugs who had gone far heard the movement, they immediately turned around and ran towards them.

     Yu Chu loosened the rope at this time and ran quickly to the exit of the parking lot. When passing the stack of cardboard boxes, he held the iron rod in his hand.

    The three thugs had already rushed over, and when they passed by the thug who had been strangled to death, they did not stop, chasing in the direction of Yu Chu.

    Yu Chu ran desperately towards the end of the lane, but the sound of footsteps behind him was getting closer and closer. Looking at the passageway of dozens of meters ahead, he knew that he must not be able to run behind him, and suddenly turned around Turn into an adjacent lane.

    That is the driveway to the negative second floor. It is a winding downhill. He quickly ran the downhill and hid behind the wall at the end of the road.

    The person chasing behind turned around the circular downhill, and after not seeing Yu Chu, he also slowed down and walked slowly towards the parking lot hall.

    Yu Chu leaned against the wall and tried his best to hold his breath.

      .

    The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Yu Chu could hear their deliberately light footsteps and heavy breathing.

    He slowly raised the iron bar and looked at the gradually enlarged figure at the front of the ground...

    "Don't move! Raise your hands!"

    Suddenly, a loud roar sounded like a thunderclap on the ground, blasting the entire parking lot, and a few lights shot down, illuminating the passage next to Yu Chu.

    The author has something to say:  Team Xie will bring the cat home to raise, but it still needs an opportunity, it will be soon.
