The old floor would make a sound with even the slightest movement of oneâs body.
Although the surrounding area was dark, the air was filled with dust, making people cough.
If one looked in the other direction, they would see a ray of light apparently coming from under the door. It seemed to be telling people in the room that there was a well-lit corridor outside.
Su Zimo, who was sitting in the dark, didnât intend to open that door and go out, but rather sat in the dark thinking about what happened in the past two days.
Earlier, the ghost suddenly appeared in Su manor at eight or nine in the evening, which caused a great commotion. However, because the ghost umbrella didnât know why he couldnât move his own body, and couldnât be too far away from Su Zimoâs body, Su Zimo could only continue to carry the umbrella with him so that the ghost umbrella could move freely within Su manor.
A lot of things related to housekeeping were left in Housekeeper Baiâs old room.
For example, âProfessional Housekeeper,â âBecoming a Butler From Scratch,â How to be a Handsome and Charming Butler,â How British Butlers Do Itâ⌠There were such messy âprofessionalâ books, and even comics and novels like âDemon Butler Falling in Love With Me,â âMy Housekeeper is the PresidentââŚ..
Additionally, as long as the computer in Housekeeper Baiâs old room was turned on, there would be many related videos on the desktop, such as âThe Proper Posture of the Housekeeper For All Occasions,â âThe Proper Tone of a Housekeeperâs Speech,â âThe Wonderful Fusion of Modern and Classic Housekeeping,â and âHow to Cleverly Pull Out the Tablecloth Without Moving the DishesââŚ..
Su Zimo thinks that these things should have little effect. After all, Housekeeper Bai was immersed in it for so many years, but had only been to fish and draw water for the Su family. <sup>1</sup> Except for the black tuxedo that showed off his beer belly, he didnât seem to show any results of his learning.
But what worried Su Zimo was that the unreliable ghost umbrella guy, after seeing the âinheritanceâ left behind by Housekeeper Bai specially for his successor, acted as if heâd seen treasure and immediately asked Su Zimo to move a bunch of things into An Yu Yi Yu.
The true appearance of the ghost umbrella was actually very beautiful, except the silver hair looked a little weird, and a delicate black line was drawn along the corners of his eyes.
In addition, his skin wasnât as white as humans. Coupled with the deeper lip color, it gave people an evil feeling, like that of an unscrupulous villain.
He was such an unscrupulous guy. When he opened his eyes and made a request of Su Zimo, the shopkeeper couldnât bear to refuse.
In the fourty-eight hour cooldown before he could enter the nightmare world again, the ghost umbrella was busy learning things related to housekeeping. Su Zimo also had many family matters to learn about and observe under Su Hewenâs arrangements.
In two days, the only thing that stopped Su Zimo was that security personnel discovered six university students from a hiking club on Shoushan.
Few people knew that the Su family owned all off the land on Shoushan. Shoushan was a well-known scenic spot in the city nearby with its beautiful view and the cool air even in summer. Therefore, most of the Su family didnât pay much heed to the nearby climbers. Only after the other party entered the mountain range would they be discouraged or expelled.
Such an ordinary event shouldnât have surprised Su Zimo, but the six climbers found were none other than Wu Qing, Xiao Yuyang, and the rest that he had encountered in the last nightmare world!
He heard that these people were found because they were wrestling on the mountainside where they were camping. Whether they were men or women, they started to fight, so security personnel had to intervene.
Because Su Zimo was an âNPC from the nightmare worldâ, he didnât go to see the group of trainers who had survived, but was surprised that they really left their scuffling and abuse until they were back in the real world like they had said.
At the same time, Su Zimo could also be sure that all the trainers in the nightmare world were real, and they all exist in the corner of the world where he is now.
âŚâŚ..
As Su Zimo prepared to go to the next nightmare world, the ghost umbrella finally figured out what kind of âhousekeeperâ there was for human beings. Because of the handsome and personable butlers in the materials that Housekeeper Bai had left, the ghost umbrella developed a curiosity for them. The ghost umbella, who rarely had contact with the human world agreed to Su Zimoâs wish.
He agreed to become Su Zimoâs housekeeper.
However, the term was one year.
In the words of the ghost umbrella, he couldnât really become the Su familyâs housekeeper. After all, the cumbersome things of the human world canât be solved by non-humans who donât know about them.
So, rather than saying that the ghost umbrella was the Su familyâs housekeeper, itâs better to say that he was An Yu Yi Yuâs steward.
After all, there will be more and more ghost tools in the store in the future. If the entire store is only managed by Su Zimo, some problems or even riots would soon appear.
âItâs definitely not a lucky thing to be the owner of this shop.â Before Su Zimo set off, the ghost umbrella looked at the sheet music to the side and the only tool on the second shelf, and said âIt may be a heavy weight to bear going forward, so you must grow up quickly as a child.â
Although he was always called a child by the ghost umbrella, Su Zimo didnât refute it this time.
He didnât know exactly how strong the ghost umbrella was, but from his tone he could feel that the other party had the ability to suppress a ghost riot. Su Zimo, who had just begun to bear the weight, was glad that he had the ghost umbrella by his side.
Knowing that the ghost umbrella was more suitable to stay in the store than beside him⌠Su Zimo, who once again entered the nightmare world, didnât carry the black umbrella with him.
In the words of the ghost umbrella, this should be the last restock adventure before the official opening of An Yu Yi Yu.
âWhere is it this time?â
Su Zimo groped along the creaky floor in the dark environment and found that he was in a dusty old room with a bed, cabinet, and window sill, except the window was sealed shut and there was no light.
Compared to when he came to the nightmare world the first time, Su Zimo now held a pen-like baton in his hand. Even though he didnât have the black umbrella, he still felt more confident. With his glasses, pen, and a way out behind him, Su Zimo believed that no matter what nightmare world he was in, he could find a way to go.
Maybe itâs because he didnât use his cell phone for four years, but Su Zimo fumbled for a long time before remembering that he could use it for light. He turned on the built-in flashlight on his phone and found himself in a dusty room filled with spider webs.
The bed in the room looked similar to the master bedroom of Su manor. Although the surrounding furniture was old and decayed, the exquisite workmanship was vaguely visible. If Su Zimo didnât guess incorrectly, this should be the master bedroom of a house thatâs been abandoned for a long time.
Su Zimo also saw a picture frame on the cabinet next to the large bed. It held a photo of a three-person family. The parents wore elegant but aged dress-wear, and the child wore a puffy skirt in colors that couldnât be distinguished.
Strangely, the three mouths had been blurred, and their appearance wasnât clear at all.
Su Zimo wasnât a veteran, so he wouldnât be issued any tasks on his arm. This is actually a pity to Su Zimo. After all, there were often hints about the current world in those tasks, which would be very useful.
After rummaging around, Su Zimoâs only profit was finding two well-preserved boxes in the large cabinet. One was large and the other was small, and they were both tied with a half-decayed ribbon. Su Zimo could pull it off with his metal pen.
The smaller box held a dress that was still intact, and the larger box held a grey teddy bear wrapped in layers of paper. Su Zimo felt that the teddy bear should have been white.
[Nightmare Brand Pink Lotus Dress (No Stars)]
[Sale Price: 2 yuan]
[Description: Put it on, youâre my little princess.]
[Nightmare Brand Teddy Bear (No Stars)]
[Sale Price: 2 yuan]
[Description: It is best not to let children and toys be alone in a room at night⌠just kidding.]
After putting the two products into his backpack, Su Zimo found that although the strange backpack could offset the weight of the commodities, it didnât have an infinite capacity. The teddy bear occupied at least half the space inside the backpack.
After confirming there was nothing else in the bedroom, Su Zimo held his phone flashlight in one hand and pushed open the very old wooden door with the other. The lock originally hung on the door was easily broken and fell to the ground after Su Zimoâs gentle push.
With a âcreak,â the door opened.
âAh! Thereâs another trainer here!â
What Su Zimo didnât expect was that just as he had opened the door and hadnât even had time to see the brightly lit hallway outside, he would hear someone yelling.
When he looked around, he found that there were already several people standing in the hallway, and one of them had a familiar face.
âSu Zimo?!â A girl with a ponytail and sportswear walked out of the crowd in surprise. âGod, youâre alive!â
If Su Zimo remembered correctly, the girl⌠seemed to be called Qi Xiaomin.
âSu Zimo?â Standing next to Qi Xiaomin was a tall and strong young man. With a bald head and special spirit, the man, after chanting Su Zimoâs name a few times, asked with an incredulous expression, âSu Zimo from Shoushan No. 1 Secondary School?â
After many years, Su Zimo couldnât remember where he had seen the young man.
But when it came to Shoushan No. 1 Secondary School⌠that was the ordinary school that Su Heng had arranged for him to attend before the car accident. Su Zimo spent over two years in that school.
âDo you all know each other?â Around Qi Xiaomin were naturally other trainers standing together. They didnât feel strange or wonder anything after discovering that Su Zimo had just emerged as their âacquaintance.â They just greeted him. âYou should be the last trainer for this task. Letâs go downstairs to discuss it. I feel like this task is a bit complicated.â
