Chapter 2 The Box (Part 2)

  Two loud "rattles" sounded on the window, pulling me out of my thoughts. At that moment, I was standing next to the window and could see outside with just a glance upwards.

  I usually hate it when others disturb me while I'm thinking about something or considering things. With a sense of discontent, I lift my head to look out the window, and unexpectedly, I see an enormous face staring back at me.

  Just as I saw that face, a chill ran down my back, but the next moment, the panic turned into anger.

  "What the hell is wrong with you? Are you looking for death?" I sprang up and started scolding the face on the glass.

  The face stuck on the glass was not someone else's, but it was Da Zhuang, my childhood friend who worked with me at that hospital. At this moment, Da Zhuang took several steps back, afraid that I would break the glass and pull him in without hesitation.

  Dazhuang scratched his head, awkwardly smiled and said "Hey, hey, let's talk things through, no need to be so aggressive." As he spoke, Dazhuang put on a pleading expression.

  Seeing Da Zhuang's comical appearance, I couldn't help but laugh. Da Zhuang is a person who doesn't have much to be admired for, except for one thing - no matter how angry you are at him, he can always make the angry person unable to do anything about it, and not even release any anger. What's more, he can even make someone who's in a fit of rage laugh.

  Maybe I'm still a bit sensitive to ghosts and monsters, after all, the things I encountered when I was on duty at that hospital were really unacceptable. Even though my grandfather told me many strange and absurd stories before, but I never experienced it myself, so I didn't know how scary those strange things could be. Now thinking about the ghost I met in the hospital, its pale face and a pair of eyes with only whites but no pupils still sends chills down my spine.

  Maybe I've been too tense lately and sensitive to everything, looking at Da Zhuang's appearance, I immediately found a stable and solid step down for myself, and then opened the window "Damn it, come in quickly, go through the front door."

  After hearing my words, Da Zhuang ran to the front of my house with two steps at a time, and in just a few seconds, I heard the "bang bang" sound of knocking on the door. It's better to say that it was not a knock on the door, but rather a demolition of the door.

  I remember the other day when Da Zhuang came to my house to see me, my parents were not at home. After this kid left, my parents returned, and my dad stared at the door for half a day. Then he said something that made me very annoyed: "Xiao Ke, didn't we just change our door the other day? When I came back and opened the door, it felt a bit loose. I remember when we installed it, it was quite tight. Tell me honestly, did Donghai's kid mess with it? Doesn't he know how to knock on the door?" After that, my dad started educating me with all sorts of things.

  It's actually not Big Zhuang's fault, I've analyzed him for so long, this kid is just the type who only knows how to break doors but won't knock on them. If it were in the past, he would definitely be a candidate for being a flying thief.

  As soon as he opened the door, he saw Da Zhuang carrying several bags of supplements and a box.

  Dazhuang walked in carrying several bags of stuff, I took a simple look and they were all ginseng and other supplements. Lately Dazhuang has been sending me these supplements nonstop, supplementing me to the point where I'm about to vomit blood. This guy even said that vomiting blood is good for you, it helps to dissipate desire. Seeing Dazhuang bring in more of this stuff makes my head ache, and the names of Third Uncle and Second Grandfather have already appeared in my mind as people to give gifts to.

  "What is this thing?" Looking at the rectangular box, I reached out to open it and see what's inside, but was stopped by Da Zhuang. The more mysterious something is, the stronger my curiosity becomes. Except when I encountered strange creatures on duty at the hospital, I am also like this in daily life, very curious about anything I haven't seen before or that is mysterious.

  With a majestic and strange smile, he let out a whistle, then immediately stood up the long box in front of himself.

  Looking at Da Zhuang's mysterious appearance, I gritted my teeth and said, "What is this thing? I'll tell you, don't think about playing tricks on me. If I wasn't looking for you back then, I would have run away from the hospital with a broken leg."

  After hearing my words, Da Zhuang scratched his head and said, "Damn, I'm telling you, Little Ke comrade, I just wanted to sell a favor to you, but I didn't expect that selling a favor would make you expose my old bottom. Let me tell you, if it wasn't for that Japanese devil sneaking up behind me at the time, I, Da Zhuang, would have given him a five-finger punch and his dead father wouldn't even recognize him." As he spoke, he spat out two mouthfuls of saliva, pretending to really want to fight.

  After a pause, Da Zhuang lifted that long box onto my bed and smiled at me, "Little comrade, this is something fun."

  Hearing this, my curiosity was even more unbearable. Seeing my anxious appearance, Da Zhuang didn't say another word and directly flipped open the lid of the long box.
