Chapter 138 Invite the first friend
Zhou Bai sat in the back seat of the car, looking out the window.
Through the whole journey, I was thinking about the items I still need to purchase.
The 5-meter-high pine tree has been placed in the castle. Next, it is time to buy decorations.
The decoration shop that Zhou Bai saw before, although it has a complete range of items, but the set menus are really a bit of a headache.
Although there is no evidence, Zhou Bai always feels that the things that come with the package are a trap.
These things cannot be placed on top of the Christmas tree, it should be for sure.
However, dealing with the extra things is something Zhou Bai needs to think about.
I don’t know, if you just throw away the unnecessary things after purchasing the package, will something happen?
Zhou Bai sat in the car, thinking about these questions all the way.
Not long after, Boots parked his car in front of the restaurant.
Zhou Bai got out of the car, said goodbye to Boots, and walked towards the restaurant.
"welcome.
Good afternoon, sir. "
When the owner of the restaurant saw Zhou Bai coming in, he immediately greeted him warmly.
"Are you sitting by the window today?"
Zhou Bai nodded to him, "Good afternoon. Yes, I will still sit in yesterday's seat."
After finishing speaking, he went to the window and sat down.
At this time, the wall clock on the wall of the shop showed the current time, which was close to twelve noon.
Zhou Bai sat by the window, looking at the other people in the store.
I saw that there were not too many people who came to eat in the shop today.
Counting together with Zhou Bai, there are only 5 tables of guests.
However, even with such a number of customers, it is enough for the boss to be busy for a while.
The shop owner put the menu in front of Zhou Bai.
Zhou Bai ordered a few dishes at random, and then asked the boss.
"I want to buy some items to decorate the Christmas tree. Is there any small shop you can recommend?"
The owner of the small shop is an enthusiastic person. Hearing Zhou Bai's question, he enthusiastically recommended it to him.
"If you want to buy decorations, you have to go to Kevin's shop."
Must go?
Zhou Bai felt that the shop owner's recommendation seemed a bit too exaggerated.
"Oh? Where is Kevin's shop?"
"Kevin's Decoration Store is just across from the bakery you asked about yesterday."
When Zhou Bai heard this, he became a little disappointed.
The boss recommended it to the same decoration shop.
I have to say, this town is really small.
The store owner saw that Zhou Bai seemed to be lacking in interest, so he recommended it even harder.
"Kevin is recognized as a good guy in the whole town.
The things he sells have always had a good reputation in our small town.
Every time someone goes shopping, he will also give a lot of small gifts. "
When Zhou Bai heard that he would give small gifts, he felt even more unreliable.
He just wants to buy it alone, and doesn't need anything attached!
However, Zhou Bai had no way to speak directly to the shop owner about Zhou Bai's worries.
I could only smile at him, "Thank you for your recommendation, I will think about it carefully."
The shop owner said enthusiastically to Zhou Bai, "You're welcome, you're new here, if you have any questions you don't understand, just ask me."
After finishing speaking, he walked into the kitchen and started making the dishes Zhou Bai ordered.
Not long after, he brought out the dishes and placed them in front of Zhou Bai's table.
"The food is ready, please use it slowly."
At this time, Zhou Bai saw that other guests were also eating.
The owner of the small shop should have free time, so he called him to stay.
The shop owner stopped in his tracks, "Say it."
"In this quiet town, is there a store that sells records?"
The boss thought about it carefully, then shook his head.
“I rarely listen to music or buy records. And I haven’t seen a record store in town.”
Zhou Bai frowned when he heard the boss's answer.
He hasn't seen a record store?
Then what was the record store I saw the day before yesterday?
Is the record store located too far away, or does it not exist at all?
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai immediately felt a chill down his back.
Moreover, the singing voice that attracted him that day was also very strange.
Zhou Bai recalled the old look of that shop again.
That weird feeling got deeper and deeper.
I always feel that the record store looks a bit out of place with other buildings in the town.
The store owner saw Zhou Bai's face suddenly turned pale, so he asked with concern.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Bai came back to his senses, and smiled at him.
"It's okay, it's just that I couldn't buy the record, and I feel a little regretful."
The shop owner couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
"I don't know how to appreciate music. Sure enough, it's a gentleman of a rich man who appreciates these things."
After he finished speaking, he walked back to the front of the counter.
Zhou Bai sat on the seat by himself, slowly ate the lunch in front of him, and then fell into deep thought.
Today is the third day of entering this dungeon.
But Zhou Bai has only harvested one pine tree so far.
There is still a long way to go before customs clearance.
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai immediately felt that the lunch in front of him was not so delicious.
He slowly finished all the food on the table, and then walked to the counter to pay.
One of Zhou Bai's requirements for clearing the dungeon this time is to invite six friends to the Christmas Eve party.
So, Zhou Bai should start looking for friends to invite from now on.
The owner of this small shop, in Zhou Bai's opinion, is a friendly person.
Inviting him to participate should not be risky.
So, Zhou Bai made him his first target.
Zhou Bai stood in front of the counter, and put the coins he needed to pay on the counter.
Then he said to the boss, "On the night of the 24th, I plan to hold a party and I would like to invite you to it. I wonder if you are free?"
The shop owner heard Zhou Bai's invitation, but looked at him blankly.
"On the night of the 24th, isn't that Christmas Eve?"
Zhou Bai didn't understand his question, "That's right. What's wrong?"
The shop owner looked at Zhou Bai, then shook his head unceasingly.
"Christmas Eve dinner is always to have dinner with the family."
After hearing his words, Zhou Bai finally realized that something was wrong.
"Christmas Eve, do you need to have dinner with your family?"
The shop owner smiled and nodded.
"Yes, on Christmas Eve, I will have dinner with my beautiful wife and my two lovely children.
Nights like this are the best nights.
By the way, you don't have a wife?
No family? "
Zhou Bai felt that the owner of this small shop had stabbed him hard in the heart.
The shop owner saw Zhou Bai's changed expression, and realized that he might have said something wrong.
"Sorry, sorry. I don't think I should ask this question."
