Chapter 11 The First Store



Qi Chen's situation is very rare. If he hadn't met Lu Yao, he would have quickly integrated into this place and become like everyone else, relying on magic to pass the time. When he is really bored, he can go to the amusement park or the cinema.

Lu Yao's existence makes him not feel too strongly about death, and his thinking and behavior are still similar to when he was alive.

Not knowing whether he remembers the murderer who killed him, Lu Yao actually thought about whether to ask him all day, and then found that it was difficult to ask such a question. After

Qi Chen finished speaking, he did not wait for Lu Yao to answer for a long time, and looked up, "What's that expression on your face?" Lu Yao

blinked and said innocently: "Ah?"

"What do you want to say?"

"Hmm?"

Qi Chen raised his hand to comb his hair back, and habitually wanted to adjust his glasses. When he pressed his brow bone, he found that his glasses were gone, "What do you want to know?" Lu Yao

swallowed her saliva, frowned for a few seconds, and faced Qi Chen's calm eyes, she suddenly felt that she was indecisive.

She didn't like this feeling, and changed her attitude. She asked directly: "Do you remember what happened before you died?"

Qi Chen's expression did not change, and he even recalled it, "I remember taking a bus, and I came here when I woke up."

He had no memory of death and could not tell her who the murderer was. Lu

Yao frowned, why did he have no memory of this part?

Qi Chen seemed to open up, "I was very scared, afraid that this day would come. If I knew it would be like this after death, I should have been more open-minded and enjoyed myself during my lifetime, instead of working myself to death every day and living worse than a dog."

Lu Yao: "..."

That's because you have lost the key memory.

Qi Chen just sighed, and noticed that Lu Yao didn't seem interested, so he didn't go any further, but said: "You really don't want my money?"

Lu Yao: "...Brother, I do want to, but I can't."

Qi Chen was stunned for a moment, staring at Lu Yao with a look that said "it turns out you're just like this", "I want to drink coffee again."

Lu Yao: "..."

An adult who changes with the times!

Xiaoqie came out after cleaning up the table. When she heard Qi Chen's words, she came over curiously: "What kind of coffee? Is the manager going to serve new coffee?"

Xingzi also heard it, with a look of nostalgia in her eyes, "I haven't had it for a long time, I want to drink it too!"

Xiaoqie and Xingzi looked at Lu Yao expectantly, and Qi Chen also looked over with a somewhat proud expression. .

Lu Yao: "..."

Lu Yao went out with his mobile phone in his pocket and bought coffee at a nearby mall. He saw Mont Blanc in the store and thought it went well with coffee, so he couldn't help but buy a few.

The four employees didn't leave. They sat by the window and chatted, waiting for the manager to come back and feed them.

Qi Chen was holding something in his hand, with a slightly impatient look on his face. Xiaoqie and Xingzi were pointing at him.

Lu Yao pushed the door open and came in, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Qie immediately stood up and ran over, "Manager! We are teaching Xiao Qi how to use illusion."

The boy's eyes were glued to Lu Yao's hand, and the teeth that had been hidden in it couldn't help but pop out.

Lu Yao simply handed the bag to Xiao Qie, who carefully took it and put it on the table.

Xingzi was surprised to see that there was a snack box, "I like the manager the most!" Lu Yao

took out coffee and Mont Blanc, one for each of them, and pulled a chair over for them to sit down.

When Qi Chen saw the snack box, his brows wrinkled slightly, he opened his mouth and then closed it, and finally said nothing.

Mont Blanc was a small piece, and it was not enough for Bai Ming to eat it all. The three of them scooped it out one spoonful at a time, eating it with extra care.

Lu Yao took a sip of coffee, which was bitter and cold, and quickly found a topic to divert attention, "What did you teach Qi Chen just now?"

Xingzi: "The simplest illusion."

Bai Ming: "He's stupid."

Xiao Qie: "Xiao Qi is indeed a little stupid. He can't even make a steamed bun properly."

Qi Chen: "...I'm not proficient."

Lu Yao remembered the content of teaching illusions in the "Life Guide" and imagined the appearance of a steamed bun in her mind. She grabbed it in the air and rubbed it in her palm.

Qi Chen saw her action and sneered, "How can you make something?"

Bai Ming, Xingzi and Xiao Qie were completely focused on the newly opened afternoon tea event and didn't notice her.

Lu Yao moved her fingers and her face changed slightly.

Qi Chen had a bad feeling: "What's wrong?"

Lu Yao spread out his hands, and three thumb-sized steamed buns were lying in his palms, "Here."

Qi Chen:!

Bai Ming & Xingzi & Xiaoqie: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The four shop assistants looked at the steamed buns, then looked up at Lu Yao, their faces becoming extremely ugly.

Bai Ming grabbed Lu Yao's hand, and let go after a moment, turned to look at Xingzi, and shook his head slightly.

Xingzi pretended to take the steamed buns, and her fingertips lightly stroked Lu Yao's palm. Xiaoqie followed suit and reached out to take one. She was relieved when she found that Lu Yao's hand was warm.

They were scared to death, and they thought the store manager had died after going out for a while.

Lu Yao felt the atmosphere was a bit weird, "What's wrong, did I pinch it wrong?"

Bai Ming: "...No, it's very good, better than the older newcomers!"

Xingzi: "The manager is really good!"

Xiaoqie: "Manager, please teach Xiao Qi, he just can't learn it."

Qi Chen: "..."

Why can she pinch it?

Lu Yao: "Oh, after all, she is a master of illusion, it's just a small steamed bun, just pinch it casually."

After she finished speaking, she pinched a Mont Blanc on the table. Except that the color is not as bright as the real one, the size and shape are almost the same.

The four employees were all surprised and speechless, and Qi Chen was especially unwilling to accept this fact.

Lu Yao sighed: "I liked playing in the mud when I was a child. Maybe my talent for it has reached its limit."

Bai Ming, Xingzi, Xiaoqie and Qi Chen: "..."

Qi Chen was a little depressed because he was not learning illusion smoothly.

After closing the shop at noon these few days, Xingzi and the other two took turns teaching him.

Lu Yao went out to buy afternoon tea again. Three consecutive days of coffee and small desserts made her already thin wallet even worse.

Lu Yao discussed with Qi Chen to buy coffee beans and bring them back so that he could make hand-brewed coffee himself.

Hand-brewed kettle, moka pot, milk frother, colander, filter paper, Lu Yao went to the market yesterday to buy some cheap items. She bought the coffee beans that Qi Chen specified in the big supermarket next to the mall, and also bought small ingredients such as whipped cream, cocoa powder, matcha powder and caramel sauce.

Qi Chen later secretly told her that the snacks in the coffee shop were not delicious, and he introduced another pastry shop specializing in desserts.

When Lu Yao entered the store, she saw that the price of the snacks in the good family was more than twice as expensive as the snacks in the coffee shop.

She looked at it for a while and felt a pain in her heart. Thinking of the expectant eyes of the four shop assistants when she left, she gritted her teeth and bought five.

This pastry shop was very busy, with three or four people queuing in front. Lu Yao was waiting in line with a plate to be packed, and did not notice that someone upstairs was looking at her.

Three days later, the murderer of Qi Chen had been found by the police. He was Qi Chen’s college classmate and also a senior executive in his company.

The news report wrote that due to long-term disagreements at work and accumulated emotions, the suspect impulsively killed the victim.

The process and outcome of this case were very cruel. The police did not disclose the details to the public, only a brief report. Zhuang Liang was drinking tea and discussing business with someone on the second floor. He
