As if seeing the nervousness in his heart, Xia Zhibai softened his tone and said softly, "Don't be nervous. He burned down your shop for a reason."
Seeing that the man was very nervous, Xia Zhibai tried to comfort him while communicating with the black fog and learned the real cause of the fire that day.
"There was a fire in the kitchen that day, so there weren't many customers. It was also near closing time, and you were feeling a little sleepy, right?"
After Xia Zhibai finished communicating with Hei Wu, he looked at the man and talked about what happened before the fire that day.
The man nodded: "Yes, there is a record at the police station."
"But the seasoning is lacking, and there are still some meatballs left. You want to make them for your family."
"Yes."
As Xia Zhibai recounted what happened before the fire, the man remained bewildered: "Does this have anything to do with the sudden fire?"
"Well, that guy thinks that while food shouldn't be wasted, its original flavor shouldn't be destroyed either."
A bold netizen responded like this.
The man narrowed his eyes with an incredible look on his face. He wanted to ask something, but found that he couldn't speak because of nervousness.
Because of this, he never told anyone else about it, and what he said was recorded in police files.
But what she said was no different from what he said.
"Anchor, what does that gentleman mean?"
"Did he start the fire?"
Many netizens asked questions in the live broadcast room.
Xia Zhibai looked at him, nodded, and then shook his head: "He doesn't have much time left. He wants to find a successor who can truly inherit his legacy."
After saying that, he looked at the man again and said, "He asked me to ask you if you are willing to learn the craft of making traditional handmade skewers from him. You have run this shop for so long, and he has seen your attitude towards work. He thinks you are honest and trustworthy, but you are still lacking a little in terms of craftsmanship."
"He didn't like those shop owners before, but you're honest and down-to-earth. The fire that day wasn't his fault. He saw you dozing off from exhaustion, so he wanted to help you with the fire, but he missed the target and ended up knocking things over, waking you up."
Xia Zhibai told the man exactly what happened that day, and finally said: "He asked me to tell you that he was sorry. He really didn't mean it."
The man stood there in a daze, and the netizens didn't know how to express themselves in words.
What was the cause of the fire in the store a few times before?
Is this ghost brother whom they cannot see really just looking for a successor?
But they rented the shop, so they did nothing wrong.
Although they really wanted to ask, they didn't have the courage.
I'm afraid of provoking this guy and being targeted by him.
"I, I accept his apology. I was indeed very sleepy that day. I, I thank him for saving me."
The man seemed to remember something, his face suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head embarrassedly.
"What should I do now to become your disciple?" Although he also paid tuition to learn, some customers have indeed said that the meatballs would taste better if they were handmade.
Seeing that he accepted it so quickly, Xia Zhibai didn't feel too surprised.
"I'll send you something in a flash. Take it and follow the instructions I give you, and you'll see it."
After Xia Zhibai finished speaking, he seemed to be in deep thought for a moment, and then said: "My dear, your time is limited. It is not good to be too obsessed. If you want to leave, tell me and I can send you away."
"Thank you, Master. As long as my wish is fulfilled, I am willing to be wiped out even if it means vanishing into thin air."
Xia Zhibai heard the voice coming from the black fog, and finally just nodded. She respected his decision.
After each hexagram, you will gain some merit.
Xia Zhibai glanced at the scrolling comments. Many people were commenting, "There are still such stubborn people in the world. In the past, when stores caught fire or the owners left after working for a while, did you make some noise and scare them?"
Xia Zhibai looked at the curious expressions of these netizens, neither shaking his head nor nodding. Let them guess more about this matter.
It has nothing to do with her anyway.
Soon the second connection was picked up. It was also a middle-aged man with eyes as red and swollen as walnuts. The moment he saw Xia Zhibai, he struggled to open his eyes, which were almost squeezed into a slit.
"Master, save me, Master, save me, I don't want to die."
As soon as he saw Xia Zhibai, he immediately asked Xia Zhibai for help.
Xia Zhibai looked at him for a few seconds and saw several ghostly figures lurking on his shoulders.
Ma Shu and Zhang Jinglun were also shocked when they saw this. This person had committed such a serious sin!
If I could get those things back from him, my master would definitely like them very much.
"Senior brother, should we find this person?" Ma Shu looked at Xia Zhibai in the live broadcast room with a calm face, who seemed not to have seen what was on that person, and was very unhappy.
Zhang Jinglun looked at it for a long time before looking away and shaking his head: "No."
"Brother, you are just a coward."
"Don't mess around. Master has gone to find that adult. We have to wait for news from Master."
Zhang Jinglun had a serious look on his face. His junior sister just liked to stir up trouble.
Ma Shu smiled lightly, raised her phone, and said, "Don't worry, I will arrange a good place for her. If she doesn't die, I will wait for the master to come back."
After saying that, he patted Zhang Jinglun's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I won't show up. I'll just ask someone to tell the adopted daughter of the Xia family what to do so that she can gain the attention of the Xia family."
"You make the arrangements, and I'll go take a look from a distance."
"Don't worry, there will definitely be something interesting to watch."
"Tell him a little?" Seeing his junior sister so determined, Zhang Jinglun wanted to know what it was.
