Chapter 21 My Shop Assistant-01

The next day, Cheng Xi got up very early. She arrived at the store before dawn at 3 a.m. and made a lot of breakfasts with her carefully decorated new kitchen and the ingredients she prepared last night.

Crab roe wontons, fresh meat and bamboo shoots buns, shrimp dumplings, fried egg pancakes that were soft and chewy, and a big pot of hot and fresh porridge.

When all these were done, it was already bright. When the first ray of sunlight shone into the room in the morning, Cheng Xi kept a breakfast for herself, and the rest was divided into many portions in a takeaway box and sent out to the neighbors.

Although Cheng Xi was an outsider who had just settled on this island for a few months, she was good-looking, kind, and often helped the grandparents around to solve some small problems, so the neighbors around liked her very much.

Now that they received her breakfast early in the morning, they all smiled and thanked her enthusiastically, and asked when her store would open, and they would definitely go to support her when it opened.

Cheng Xi thought about it, and now everything was ready, only the shop assistant was missing. If nothing unexpected happened, the store would open next Monday, which was three days later.

After delivering breakfast, Cheng Xi returned to the store, ate the breakfast that had just been left on the table, and then took out the summoning talisman that the fairy sister gave her yesterday at Langhuan Pavilion.

This store has three floors and is very large. There is even a small courtyard outside. The first floor is the restaurant and kitchen that she has decorated, and the second and third floors are bedrooms, bathrooms and other home rooms. In order to save money, Cheng Xi plans to return the rent of the house she lives in now after the rent expires and move to the store.

This big house is more like a big villa in a commercial district than a restaurant.

The business is just in its infancy, so there is no need for too many employees. Cheng Xi calculated that according to the customer flow here, four people, including employees and the boss, are enough, so she drew three summoning talismans.

When using the summoning talisman, Cheng Xi prayed very idealistically that the clerk she summoned would be a character from a young hot-blooded manga or a growth and upgrade style.

It's no wonder she's demanding. What if she comes up with a palace fighting story or a romance show or some other character? The former is scheming every day to kick her boss out and take over, while the latter is having a sweet office romance every day. Who can stand this! ?

The most important thing is that all kinds of forces are entrenched in this world, and pirates go to the island to rob every few days. The hot-blooded characters at least have the ability to protect themselves.

As she thought so, her spiritual power was already injected into the talisman. She chanted the spell, and the golden talisman began to burn.

Cheng Xi had never touched this summoning talisman before. She guessed that after throwing it into the open space, her new employee would break through the space and appear out of thin air.

She was right, but it seemed that something unexpected happened...

At the moment the talisman was thrown, an indescribable atmosphere of sadness enveloped her heart, and three voices rang in Cheng Xi's ears.

"Shinobu, quit the Demon Slayer Corps. I hope you can live like an ordinary girl."

"Shinobu, you must live happily."

"As long as one demon is defeated, dozens of people will survive."

"I have been living the way my sister wants..."

"Have mom and I been cursed by human hearts?"

"Why, why? We are obviously going to have a new life. We agreed to go to technical high school with Yuji-kun. There are ridiculously strong teachers and many reliable companions there. We will fight together." "Mom

..., Yuji-kun..."

The sadness came suddenly and strongly, as if the sea was boundless and about to drown her. It took Cheng Xi a long time to adapt before she calmed down.

"What is this..." She was still confused, and suddenly there was a sound of breaking air, followed by two loud noises. Her future shop assistant did not stand in the open space as she thought, but fell straight from the roof, breaking two dining tables she had just bought at a huge cost...

The air was filled with a heavy smell of blood, and thick blood spread on the broken table boards. Cheng Xi hurried over to help them check the wounds.

"Sister..."

Is this a dream, or a revolving lantern before death? Kocho Shinobu forced herself to open her eyes.

She was absorbed by Douma in the Infinite City the last second, and she was ready to die. Unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes, her sister who had been dead for four years appeared in front of her. She tried her best to hold her sister's hand.

It was already a blessing to see her sister before she died.

"Shinobu, how did you get so badly injured?" Kocho Kanae didn't understand why she teleported from the wild to this obviously enclosed space in an instant, but now she was more concerned about her sister's injury.

Their injuries were so severe that even though they tried very hard to get closer to each other, they both fell to the ground and fainted due to lack of strength.

"Ahhhhhhh, don't die!" Cheng Xi made a sharp explosion. This hot-blooded comic was too hot-blooded. She was covered in blood.

She hurriedly checked the injuries of the Butterfly Sisters. The woman with long hair was more seriously injured and was dying. Her pulse and heartbeat were very weak. She had lost too much blood. Her body was covered with knife wounds and frostbite that were deep enough to see the bone. Her lungs were severely torn. The most important thing was that the ice chips and mist she inhaled into her body contained a lot of toxins, which would flow through the blood to the whole body.

The short-haired woman was slightly less injured, but her body must have come into contact with something very corrosive. There were large patches of red marks, which looked horrible.

Cheng Xi first pressed the key points on their bodies to stop the bleeding, and took emergency measures to save their lives. When he was about to take them to the hospital, he suddenly realized a problem.

I used three summoning talismans, but only two people appeared now. Where is the third person...?

She was wondering, and suddenly felt a murderous aura rushing towards her from behind. Cheng Xi immediately grabbed the bodies of the butterfly sisters in front of him and hid them in a safe place before coming out to fight the enemy.

Looking at everything that happened in the restaurant, she was speechless and heartbroken again.

The enemy who rushed towards her just now was a half-human-high monster with short limbs, hair covering one eye, and the other round eye exposed, staring very big, opening his mouth to reveal a mouthful of sharp teeth, as if to bite everything to pieces.

It has a strong destructive power. While Cheng Xi was transferring the injured, it destroyed the tables, chairs, counters, and various ornaments in the room. Even the lucky dolls that Cheng Xi carefully selected and placed on the counter were smashed...

A month's hard work was destroyed in an instant. Cheng Xi was furious and wanted to send this monster to the west with a sword.

She was almost angry to death. People should not be too greedy. She originally wanted to save money on hiring shop assistants, but now, she even smashed the store. It was

really a bad year and bad luck.

If she led the monster outside the store, it was now busy in the commercial street, and she was afraid of hurting innocent passers-by. However, she was a little restrained to fight inside the store. Cheng Xi was afraid that she would chop the house with a sword, and then the landlord would eat her alive.

Fortunately, the monster was not very strong. When Cheng Xi was about to cut off his neck with a sword, she suddenly felt a very strong atmosphere of sadness, which was exactly the same as one of the three atmospheres when she summoned it just now.

Can monsters be sad and upset?

"Save me, save me..."

There was no sound in the environment, but she could hear this sound.

This was a cry for help from the depths of the soul. Cheng Xi grabbed the monster's hair and threw it over her shoulder. Even a monster with a strong physique was thrown by her and was dizzy and dizzy.

He put the sword against its throat, then reached out and touched its skin to feel its soul. A person is made up of three souls and seven spirits, but the soul of the monster in front of him was violently torn into pieces and became a mess.

"So you are not a monster, but a human." Cheng Xi put away his sword and felt a little better. He grinned and said, "Since you are a human, then work here for me for a hundred years to pay you back."

Isn't this a coincidence? He has just learned the art of repairing souls, which is a professional match.

If someone nearby saw this scene, they would definitely think that Cheng Xi, who was giving an evil smile, was a black-hearted boss who exploited his employees.

She flew her hands and made seals, so fast that only the residual image could be seen.

"Wandering soul, where can you stay? The three souls have already descended, the seven spirits are coming, the lost true soul, please return to your place now..."

The complicated and lengthy spell was chanted in her mouth with a firm momentum. The monster felt the abnormality of its body and tried desperately to resist, but was captured by Cheng Xi and could not move.

"Soul repair technique, fix!"

The repaired soul was still very weak, but the monster in front of him had gradually revealed its true face.

It was a young man wearing a black jacket, with a thin figure, about 1.7 meters tall, black hair to the shoulders, and a very delicate and soft face. After regaining his true form, he staggered to the ground because of exhaustion.

Cheng Xi caught the boy in time and put the back of his hand on his forehead.

Feeling the cold touch on his forehead, the boy opened his olive green eyes like gems, and used his last bit of strength to stop him: "Don't, don't touch me..."

After saying that, he couldn't hold on any longer and fainted directly.

Cheng Xi didn't listen to what he said, and continued to measure his temperature. Feeling the scorching heat from his palm, it was probably about 42 or 43 degrees, right?

When she withdrew her hand, she accidentally lifted the boy's bangs on the right side. Seeing the ugly and hideous scar on it, Cheng Xi calmly lifted his bangs down again.

He was sweating all over, and Cheng Xi guessed that if he didn't get treatment, he might become a fool, so she hugged the boy without saying a word and prepared to send him to the hospital.

Just as she reached the door, she came back again. There were two seriously ill patients in the kitchen!

Holding three wounded at once, he felt the fear, confusion, and shock coming from all around.

Cheng Xi: It turns out that free is the most expensive.

The wounded were sent to the hospital. The teenager was fine, but he was exhausted and had a high fever. He just needed a few bottles

of antipyretics. As for the sisters, the doctor performed an operation for nearly ten hours before they were out of danger. The short-haired girl needed multiple dialysis sessions to wake up because the toxins in her body were too high. If it weren't for Cheng Xi's emergency measures or their own strong physical fitness, they would not have survived.

The three of them lived in the same ward.

As for why the seriously injured and dying patients and the high-fever patients lived in the same ward, don't ask, if you ask, it was Cheng Xi's request.

There is no medical insurance.

The operation cost 1.08 million Baileys.

Add to that the hospitalization fee, medical expenses and other miscellaneous expenses, and there was also a restaurant on the first floor that was smashed to pieces.

After three months of desperate struggle, Fuluns Island's asset balance was: 2 million Baileys in debt.

But they are indeed the protagonists of a hot-blooded comic, and their physical fitness is just great. The sisters were so badly injured that they opened their eyes and became conscious after only lying in bed for a week. And the boy gradually got better the next day.

Shinobu Kocho opened her eyes and saw her sister on an IV drip. She was very sad. Fortunately, the nurse showed up in time to tell her that the patient was out of danger, and she felt a little relieved.

Where is this? Is it heaven?

As for Junpei Yoshino, the death of his mother, the deception of the real one, and the promise with Itadori, all of this made him still in a state of collapse. He just stared at the ceiling quietly without saying a word.

On the tenth day, after realizing that these three had the strength to speak consciously, Cheng Xi finally pushed open the door of the ward.

"Mina-san, now that you're all awake, let's talk."
