a zombie haunts me

Chapter 253 Don't do loss-making business
"This is the middle ground between the world and the underworld, just like there are not only black and white in this world, but also a kind of gray between black and white."

As he spoke, he turned his head slowly and glanced at me, which made my heart tremble slightly.

After a while, I became a little hesitant, so I asked: "You mean, this place is between the world and the underworld... Then what is the soul bank?"

I was still a little puzzled, looking at everything in front of me, I always felt that something seemed inappropriate.

"A place that neither the world nor the underworld can control."

The smile on his face deepened, he took my hand and walked quickly to the house.

I was a bit hesitant at first, but since Wu Chuan made such an arrangement, there must be a reason for such an arrangement. I took a deep breath and walked towards the house with heavy steps.

But what I didn't expect was that the whole house was so different from what I had imagined.

Everything is very different from the underworld. There are many rooms, but the decoration here is obviously modern. For some reason, I always feel a little familiar, just like when I just heard the words "soul bank".

I think I may have known such a place in my previous life, so even now, I still have an impression of it.

Thinking of this, my original fear gradually eased a lot.

Sitting down on the soft sofa, I carefully observed everything around me. At this time, Pluto suddenly changed into a suit of clothes from somewhere, and with a wave of his hand, the clothes were already on me.

Just as I was wondering, when he turned around, he actually changed into a modern attire, wearing a neat suit on his body, just like a social elite.

But why, when I saw him, I suddenly thought of something, as if a familiar voice said to me: "This is the boss of Soul Bank, Wu Chuan."

Just as he was thinking, a voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Boss Wu... Boss Wu... May I come in?"

"Come in." Pluto smiled, then turned to me and said, "Business is here. From now on, you will be my assistant."

"But I... I've never managed a bank before, I don't know what to do..."

I was a little panicked, and stared blankly at Pluto in front of me, although his appearance made me feel a little familiar.

"It's okay, just stand by my side."

As soon as the words fell, a middle-aged man walked in from the door, as if he had been here many times, he didn't admit his familiarity at all, and immediately sat down opposite Hades.

"Boss Wu, I'm here today because I want to talk to you about something."

The middle-aged man showed embarrassment, but at that moment, I saw a cloud of black air on his forehead. It seemed that he was very unlucky.

But when will I be able to see these?

Seeing me staring at him all the time, he suddenly raised his head, and the moment he saw me, there was a clear look of surprise on his face.

"You...you are..."

He pointed at me and hesitated for a long time without speaking clearly.

I was also slightly taken aback, does this man know me?

"She is my assistant I just invited, and her name is Manchen." After that, Pluto turned his head and said to me: "Manchen, this is Boss Zhou, a regular customer of our bank."

Although I was very surprised by the expression on Boss Zhou's face when he saw me, I still smiled at him politely and said to him, "Hello, Boss Zhou."

"oh oh……"

Boss Zhou nodded repeatedly, as if something came to his lips, but he couldn't say it.

But, something flashed through my mind, by the way, why did I know that Pluto's identity in the world is a man named "Wu Chuan", could it be that we have met before?

Who is that familiar voice in my memory, but as long as I try hard to think about it, I will feel a pain in my head, like a needle prick.

Forget it, let's see what Boss Zhou is here for.

The Pluto in front of him was sitting deeply in the chair, with his hands lightly resting on the table, he really looked like a businessman.

After a while, I heard him say: "My Soul Bank opens the door to do business, no matter what Boss Zhou wants, we can satisfy you."

"This……"

Boss Zhou wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, remained silent for a moment, and then said to Pluto: "A few days ago, my ten-year-old daughter suddenly contracted some strange disease. In order to cure her disease, I almost searched for famous doctors, but..."

When he said this, he stopped suddenly, but strangely, some images seemed to suddenly appear in my mind, and I faintly saw a little girl in light blue clothes lying on the hospital bed, her face was as pale as paper.

"You want your daughter to recover?"

Pluto just said a word, and Boss Zhou nodded frequently, but I saw the faint worry in his eyebrows.

"Soul Bank is omnipotent. As long as you hand over the same amount of collateral, I will be able to lend you your daughter's health."

Suddenly, my brain seemed to be knocked by something suddenly, there was a buzzing sound, and then it exploded with a bang.

I have known for a long time that the Soul Bank is not an ordinary place. I thought it was just a money transaction. Unexpectedly, even health can be borrowed...

This was a bit beyond my expectation, but a hint of surprise flashed in the boss's eyes that week, and then he fell into deep thought.

"What's the matter, Boss Zhou, your request can be fulfilled, why are you still not happy?"

I suddenly interjected, unexpectedly, that boss Zhou’s eyes were red, he pondered for a moment, his nervously trembling hands slowly clenched into fists, then asked in a low voice: “I don’t know, Boss Wu wants The collateral is..."

"Since you want to borrow your health, of course you should exchange it with your health."

As soon as Pluto finished speaking, I saw that Boss Zhou began to tremble. His brows were furrowed, and he said in fear, "No, I have already mortgaged my ten years of life. If it is a mortgage, then the rest of my life will not be tortured by illness until I die of old age?"

At that moment, some strange pictures suddenly appeared in my mind. I saw Boss Zhou standing alone on the high platform, and his whole body seemed to be in a deep despair. Jump, jump off a tall building...

I suddenly took a deep breath, and the blurry shadow disappeared from my eyes, and I saw Boss Zhou shivering in a chair.

"You can choose not to make a mortgage, continue to try your best to treat your daughter, walk slowly, and don't send it away."

Pluto raised his hand, the expression on his face was so cold, as if he was talking about something innocuous.

My heart suddenly softened, and I was just about to say a few words for Boss Zhou, but Pluto's sharp eyes suddenly met mine, and at that moment, I panicked and stopped talking.

"Don't... Boss Wu, don't do this, let me think about it again."

Boss Zhou wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and said tremblingly, "Boss Wu, can you exchange the collateral, can you..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Pluto: "Boss Zhou, you should be very clear that the Soul Bank has never done a loss-making business. If you want, this business can be done at any time. If you don't want to, trouble You leave immediately, I have another guest waiting."

"This..." Boss Zhou obviously hesitated. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you!"

"Okay, Boss Zhou is a straightforward person." After Pluto finished speaking, he turned to me and said, "Manchen, go and get the contract."

However, I was still lost in thought, until several voices came from my ears: "Manchen...Manchen..."

Only then did I realize that he was calling my name.

But I don't know where the contract is placed. Seeing him pointing to the cabinet behind him, I nodded and walked over slowly.

As soon as he opened the cabinet, he saw a contract there. When he picked it up, he found that the content of the contract had been completely drawn up, and it was exactly the same as what they talked about just now.

I was a little surprised in my heart, but I still didn't say much, and gently placed the contract in front of Boss Zhou.

Boss Zhou still seemed a little hesitant, but after a while, he still took a deep breath, slowly picked up the pen with trembling hands, and signed his name on the contract.

However, the moment the contract was signed, he disappeared completely.

I walked to the empty seat and asked suspiciously, "Where is the person?"

"The transaction is completed, so naturally send him back."

Pluto said very indifferently, sitting quietly on the chair, every movement carried an innate majesty, which made people shudder.

"But……"

As soon as my words came to my lips, he seemed to have guessed what I wanted to ask: "Do you want to know if his daughter will get better?"

Sure enough, he saw through, I nodded and asked, "Will you?"

"Of course, the soul bank has made countless transactions, and it is never possible to break the trust of others."

Pluto said very calmly, with a domineering and confident look in his eyes.

I've never doubted his ability, but I think Boss Zhou is so pitiful, why would Pluto take away his health so cruelly?
Didn't he say that the world is full of desire, greed and hatred, why can't I feel it at all?

"Are you sympathizing with him?"

Suddenly, his sharp eyes fell on my face, making my beating heart tremble slightly.

I swallowed, then nodded and said: "Boss Zhou is really pitiful, isn't he? I seem to vaguely see that when he was old, because he couldn't bear the torture of illness, he chose to jump from a high building to end his life." s life……"
