Chereads / Apocalypse Night / Chapter 7 - Chapter 7

Chapter 7 - Chapter 7

Shen Qiu opened the door and entered the room with his things. He organized some of the things he bought into the refrigerator and some on the cabinet.

After finishing these, Shen Qiu washed an apple and walked towards the bedroom.

He sat in front of the computer that was always on, took a bite of the apple, and browsed the forum.

The entire forum was more lively than last night, with all kinds of messy posts flying around.

Shen Qiu even saw a very popular post, so he clicked on the post to have a look.

The post reads: The ancient prophecy of the end of the world is coming, spend all your savings and have fun, shall we? Otherwise, people die, but the money is still there, how sad it is.

Floor 2: If we listen to your advice and spend all our money, and the end doesn't come, what should we do?

Floor 3: If that's the case, it really is the end of the world! And it's our own doom! Ha ha!

4th Floor: After the appraisal, this landlord must be a profiteer, cheating us to consume.

Shen Qiu browsed quietly, his brows furrowed even more. He found that the official had removed the announcement from last night and hadn't made any new announcements.

And that countdown is only 10 hours and 32 minutes left.

Shen Qiu stared at the countdown, he was also very curious now, what big event would happen when the countdown ended.

So he sat in front of the computer, propped his face with one hand, and waited quietly.

tick tick tick ~

The hands of the clock kept moving.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Shen Qiu felt a little drowsy, but he didn't deliberately hold on, and gradually closed his eyes to take a nap.

After a burst of loud hawking sounded from all around, Shen Qiu shook his head slightly, and his whole body slowly came to his senses. At this time, the countdown displayed by the scarlet skull on the computer screen had only 3 hours and 53 minutes left.

Only then did Shen Qiu realize that he had slept for a long time, and the light around the room had already dimmed, all being illuminated by the purple ambient light of the computer case.

Then he stood up slowly and moved his hands and feet a little. Sitting and sleeping for too long, my hands and feet are a little numb.

buzz~

At this time, the mobile phone placed in front of the computer desk vibrated suddenly, and a call came in.

Shen Qiu glanced at the past, only to see that the screen was lit up, displaying the caller note · profiteer.

Seeing the note displayed, Shen Qiu sat down again, without a single pause, and directly pressed the caller off.

As a result, within three seconds after Shen Qiu pressed the button, the phone vibrated again.

The caller ID was still a profiteer, Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and pressed the phone again with a blank expression, and then operated the mouse to refresh the Haiyin platform.

It's a pity that Shen Qiu seemed to have underestimated the other party's perseverance, the phone vibrated again, and the profiteer called again.

Shen Qiu frowned slightly, then picked up the phone to connect, and said in a cold tone.

"What are you doing? Tell me what you have to do, and let the fart go when you have something to do. It's okay, I'll just hang up."

"Haha, don't! I have something important to ask you."

Suddenly, a greasy, flattering voice came from the phone.

"I'm not interested, I don't want to hear it."

"It's really important, why don't we meet up?"

"No time, no see."

After Shen Qiu finished speaking, he hung up the phone and put the phone back on the table.

hum~

The phone vibrated again and the screen lit up. But this time it wasn't a call from a profiteer, but a message popped up.

"Respect Mr. Shen, your electricity bill is in arrears, and 200 union coins are automatically prepaid, and the remaining balance of your account ending with 444 is 3241 union coins."

Seeing this message, Shen Qiu's expression also moved slightly, and he picked up the phone again.

Opening the communication log, looking at the number of the profiteer who refused to answer, a trace of helplessness appeared in his eyes. He really didn't want to deal with this guy, but Naihe wallet didn't allow him to be so stubborn.

But in the end Shen Qiu didn't dial out the number, but just murmured helplessly to himself.

"Forget it, let him call later."

Sure enough, within half a minute, the profiteer called again.

Shen Qiu picked it up, and before he could speak, the other party on the other side of the phone was chattering non-stop, for fear of being hung up again.

"My good brother, ancestor, please don't hang up on me. I really have something important to ask you. It is definitely a good thing for you to rest assured."

"Hey~ okay, let's meet up."

"Really! That's great, what do you want to eat? You can choose any restaurant, I'll treat you!"

The profiteer said very excitedly.

"Don't bother, come to the Juewei Night Market in front of my house."

Shen Qiu turned the gaming chair, glanced out the window, and replied calmly.

"Okay, no problem, I'll come right away!"

The profiteer agreed happily.

Shen Qiu hung up the phone and stood up, changed into a black sportswear, and then walked outside.

A few minutes later, Shen Qiu walked out from the gate of the community and walked towards the nearby night market streets.

As a result, before he got there, he could smell the aroma of barbecue and cooking in the air.

Although it was past nine o'clock in the evening, the night market was extremely lively from a distance.

Soon Shen Qiu came to the night market, he walked along the street, the cement road under his feet was covered with black oil stains that couldn't be washed off, almost covered with paste.

On the steps on both sides of the street, there are open-air stalls and folding wooden tables. Some street-facing restaurant owners even moved their kitchens to the street to stir-fry dishes in the open air to attract passing guests.

Since this is a university town nearby, it is also a Saturday. So basically most of the stalls are filled with young men and women. They talked and laughed, ate, chatted, drank wine, and were very happy.

Not at all affected by the Red Skull incident.

Looking at the night market full of fireworks, Shen Qiu's mood improved a lot.

"Big brother, would you like something to eat? There are all kinds of hot dishes, cold dishes, and barbecue."

At this time, a stall proprietress wearing a greasy apron greeted Shen Qiu warmly when she saw Shen Qiu approaching.

Shen Qiu stopped, glanced at the booth, there happened to be a good empty table left, then nodded, walked over and pulled a small bench to sit down.

The proprietress warmly greeted her and asked with a simple menu.

"What to eat!"

Shen Qiu didn't look at the menu and said directly.

"Before anyone comes, bring me a plate of boiled peanuts and cucumbers first."

"Okay, no problem!"

The proprietress picked up a blank notebook and wrote down the appetizers Shen Qiu ordered.

Not long after, a young waiter who looked pretty good came up with appetizers.

"Sir, your dish."

"Um."

Shen Qiu removed the double disposable chopsticks, while breaking the peanuts, he was thinking about what the profiteers would do to him.

Of course, the profiteer was not his real name, but a nickname given to him by Shen Qiu. His original name was Huang Lang.

Huang Lang is one of the core management personnel of the Tianji Club to which Shen Qiu belongs, and is responsible for sponsorship, advertising, marketing and the like.
