Midnight Bookstore Chapter 226 – dumbfounded

I planted a seed,

finally, a fruit grew,

today is a great day..

At this time, the fruit had been chewed up and turned into green smoke. It slowly spread out from Zhou Ze's eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and then down along his torso.

Previously, Zhou Ze's neck was almost broken, but he was still eating the fruit. Obviously, he knew that the fruit did not need to be digested directly through the esophagus.

After losing the fruit that was originally hidden in the deepest part of the tree, the tree root slowly began to wither. It was filled with intense unwillingness and indescribable hatred.

It never dreamed that in the end, it would end up like this.

Heaven's wrath,

revenge,

karma,

in the end, it all became bullshit. At least, that was the case for it.

However..,

at this moment..,

the incomplete body suddenly trembled again and charged directly at Zhou Ze. The old tree root used the last bit of its life essence to transform into the flames of revenge. No matter what, it wanted Zhou Ze to die!

However..,

the incomplete body suddenly stopped when it was just about to approach Zhou Ze,

not only did it stop..,

it even took the initiative to stretch out its hand to prop up Zhou Ze's head that was about to fall off earlier, allowing the green light to surround it.

“This body… do you think it's… For… You?”

Zhou Ze's voice carried a hint of ridicule, as if it was a game of go. He already had the advantage, and when his opponent was already powerless to turn the situation around, he would give a few more comments. It was a different feeling.

“He… is the… gardener that I left behind.”

The crippled body took the initiative to stretch out his hand, directly tearing off the stalk of grass on the other half of his face. His entire action was very stiff, and then he even stuck his finger into his eye socket, forcefully pulling out the grass inside.

Although it was pulling out a stalk of grass, this kind of scene was no less than tearing its own flesh and blood.

It completely completed the counterattack.

The green color in Zhou Ze's eyes was slowly dimming, and his neck was regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“HMM?”

A light sound came from Zhou Ze's body,

“You… are resisting me?”

It seemed like he was talking to himself, but in fact, he was really talking to himself.

“Without me… you would have died a long time ago… I don't know how many times…”

His tone was exactly the same as when he was facing the tree root.

Suddenly, the green color in Zhou Ze's eyes started to flicker. Sometimes it was clear, sometimes it was confused, sometimes it was angry, and sometimes it was very hesitant.

“You Are… born from my intelligence… But you… have to be clear… you are also… a part of me!”

Buzz

Zhou Ze's body began to tremble,

this internal resistance carried a kind of unyielding stance.

The next moment..,

the green light in Zhou Ze's eyes began to dissipate, and then his body began to slowly float up.

As for the incomplete body, it quietly sank into the bottom of the water, together with the rotten and withered old tree root, and slowly sank downwards.

It was clearly not an astonishing depth of water, but at this moment, it seemed to have turned into a terrifying abyss, swallowing both of them together. No one knew where it would descend to in the end.

In the human world, there were rules of the human world. All existences that did not belong to the human world would be suppressed and wiped out. Ordinary people had their own trajectory in life, and anyone who dared to peek at things that did not belong to them would be punished, they would also be punished.

Eighty years ago,

the Japanese, who had almost lost their minds, found this incomplete body and transported it here. They tried to obtain power that surpassed the limits of human thought. In the end, the corpse went crazy and turned this place into a purgatory on Earth.

In the dark,

it was as if there was a hand,

in the darkness,

it was adjusting and correcting everything,

it was particular about one,

it was very distinct.

“Gulp… gulp… gulp…”

Water,

water again,

this damned water again,

zhou Ze hated water now. He really, really hated it. He was tired of the sound of liquid filling his eardrums. He also hated the feeling of suffocation when his lungs were squeezed.

Slowly,

he opened his eyes,

he saw himself lying in the fish tank, and the White Yingying in a swimsuit was wiping and scrubbing his body.

Moreover,

the White Yingying had her back to him, and was helping him wipe and massaging his thighs in the hot water.

People with a bit of medical knowledge knew that if a person lay in bed for too long, it was very easy to develop bedsores, and it could even lead to other physical problems.

Whether there was a filial son in front of the bed after a long period of time could be checked to see if there were bedsores on the patient's body.

Zhou Ze was just about to move,

an extremely clear and intense piercing pain suddenly came from all over his body. This piercing pain did not come from the flesh, but from the nerve position.

“Plop…”

His body trembled,

zhou ze directly slid into the bathtub,

he also brought down the Oriole who was tiptoeing to wipe Zhou Ze's body,

for a moment..,

zhou ze only felt two extremely soft lumps of flesh pressing against his face. In the middle, there was also the coldness of eating and bullying in the summer.

Even in hot water..,

this kind of coldness was still difficult to accept,

especially for a patient like Zhou Ze whose body was in an extremely fragile state, it could even be said that he was on the verge of falling apart. This time, it was as if someone had smashed his face with a brick of ice.

“Gulp…”

Zhou Ze fell into a coma again in an instant.

“AH, Boss!”

Bai Yingying shrieked and immediately got up to pull Zhou Ze's face out of the water.

She touched Zhou Ze's face worriedly and judged that Zhou Ze's breathing was still normal. Only then did Bai Yingying let out a long sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.

If her boss was really..,

confused by her..,

and suffocated to death..,

that would be a big joke.

When she woke up for the second time, it was two days later. When she woke up, Zhou Ze found himself lying… uh, where was I lying?

There wasn't a bed below,

there was a laundry pole on the windowsill,

she was actually floating in the air!

Was she dreaming again?

Then I'll continue to sleep.

I close my eyes,

after a few minutes..,

zhou Ze tried to open his eyes again,

why Am I still in this dream?

I'm floating on the windowsill and the sun is shining on me.

At this moment, Zhou Ze turned his head and saw Tang Shi sitting at the edge of the window, reading a book.

“What's going on?”

Tang Shi raised her head and looked at Zhou Ze. Then, she picked up the coffee cup beside her and took a sip.

There was no need to think,

zhou Ze knew that this woman must be drinking the very expensive cat feces coffee that he had specially bought!

There were many instant Nescafe in the shop. Go and drink that!

“For patients, basking in the sun seems to be beneficial. As a doctor, you should understand this principle.”

“Then you can put me in a wheelchair and push me out to bask in the Sun.”

Zhou ze smiled a little,

he used his psyche power to float out,

he hung himself on the balcony to bask in the sun like he was drying his clothes,

it was so embarrassing.

“A wheelchair? I do have a wheelchair over there. It's the kind that can push a button and run by itself. I thought you wouldn't like it, so I didn't let you sit in it.”

“Thank you.”

Zhou Ze was sincerely grateful,

the old priest's wheelchair was still there?

Just think about it,

in the future, if the old priest or Xu Qinglang took out their phones and showed them a video of themselves sitting in an electric wheelchair with children's songs playing beside them, it would be the darkest history.

“Now, put me down.”

Tang Shi nodded. Zhou Ze was moved from the windowsill to the bed.

“You're awake. Are You Alright?”Tang Shi asked. “You've been in a coma for 20 days. That's a long time.”

“Why haven't you returned to Shanghai?”Zhou ze asked.

The matter has been settled. Why are you still here?

It's fine if you stay here,

i know you won't help entertain the guests or help make money,

it's already your greatest contribution if you don't stab the guests to death with a pen,

and you stayed here and drank my cat feces coffee?

Tang Shi did not answer this question. This was her personality. It was clearly because Zhou Ze had saved her at the research institute that night. She felt that she should stay here and wait for Zhou Ze to wake up. Otherwise, she would feel a little guilty, but it was difficult for her to say it out loud.

“Do you want me to call Bai Yingying?”Tang Shi asked.

“There's no need for that. I have something to ask you,”Zhou Ze said.

“What is it?”

“I think there's something in my body.”

“I can tell. It's just like Ultraman's transformation.”Tang Shi took another sip of coffee,

“That night, you fell down, and then you resurfaced.

Then, the matter was resolved.”

Zhou Ze's heart was bleeding.

“What's wrong? Most people wouldn't be envious. Naruto's nine-tailed seal, Ultraman's transformation, who wouldn't want to have a powerful power sealed within their body?”

Tang Shi curled her little finger as she spoke. “Isn't the change in your attitude towards me also because you have that power to rely on?”

“The crux of the problem is that it's changing.”

Zhou ze said very seriously,

“In the beginning, I could feel that it was unconscious, an unconscious thing. It didn't matter, right? I could use it whenever I wanted.

The side effect was nothing more than lying in bed for half a month.

But now…”

As I used it more and more, I discovered that it was changing. I could clearly feel its consciousness. I could even feel that its consciousness and thoughts were constantly improving.

As I awakened it time and time again, it was also repairing itself.

It was like a person, constantly healing and constantly recovering.

Every time I used it to deal with a dangerous situation,

it would help me solve my problems, but at the same time, it would also get some tonic for itself. Most of my enemies and opponents have become its food.”

When Tang Shi heard this, her expression became solemn. At the same time, she said,

“So, you're Worried?”

“Yes, I'm worried…”

I'm even beginning to feel fear

Because..,

there's a possibility..,

that the next time I wake it up..,

will be when it completely replaces me.”
