I'm Really Not The Demon God's Lackey Chapter 32

Lin Jie skillfully removed the latch and opened the door of the bookstore.

The rain outside did not slow down in any way, it was as if the sky forgot to close the gate.

However, the water level on the road seems to have dropped a little today, which should be due to the fact that the sewer system is operating at maximum efficiency, as the news said.

But what was even more surprising was that several large vehicles used for construction passed by on the usually empty streets.

Gas lamps illuminate the street moment after moment amidst the majestic rain.

From time to time, people in the shops and houses on both sides of the street poked their heads out to take a curious look, and then closed the doors or windows again to prevent the rain from coming in.

The vehicles come and go as fast as they come.

Soon, the street regained its calm.

Lin Jie was a little surprised, looking at the waves on the road: “Is there any accident?”

If you think about it carefully, it seems impossible that there will be no accidents under such heavy rain.

Inside these vehicles, there seemed to be bulldozers and excavators, as if they were going to attack some buildings.

Lin Jie also wanted to listen to the morning news broadcast in the video store next door to see what happened.

But he sat in his seat for a long time, but he couldn’t wait for the snowflake sound on the TV next door.

“?”

Lin Jie couldn’t help being a little puzzled, looking at it according to his previous habits.

When this happens, the boss next door will definitely turn the volume of the TV to the maximum, and the channel will definitely be the same station that broadcasts people’s curiosity at the time.

To show a rather self-satisfied “look, you all have to get the news from me” sense of superiority, very complacent.

But today, instead of doing this, it seems that the TV is not even turned on.

It’s really strange.

“Could it be that the switch tripped again later? Or the owner of the video store suddenly fell ill?”

Lin Jie couldn’t help but worry.

Although this neighbor has some minor problems, he cannot be said to be a bad person after all.

Just an ordinary townsman.

I usually listen to so much news, but I still have feelings.

Lin Jie shouted to the other side through the wall: “Excuse me…”

But before he could finish his sentence, the next door screamed suddenly and shortly, as if startled: “Ah!”

Lin Jie asked suspiciously, “Did something happen?”

The neighbor was silent for a while, then said tremblingly: “It’s okay, really, it’s okay…Don’t say please, don’t say, Gudu.”

The owner of the video store swallowed his saliva incoherently, and said, “Well, what’s the matter?”

Lin Jie said: “I want to ask, why your TV is not on, is there any accident?”

Oops! Sure enough, he found something unusual!

Usually in movies, people who expose themselves to realize that they are wrong end up dead!

The owner of the audiovisual store immediately turned on the TV with a “click”: “Open! I’m very sorry! Turn it on now!”

The TV next door immediately started broadcasting. Sure enough, the TV was broadcasting the news of the wall collapse accident in this area.

It turned out that the wall collapsed. Such a heavy rain may indeed destroy some tofu projects.

There were even casualties. It seems that this accident should be a little serious.

“Okay thank you.”

Lin Jie nodded after understanding the details, and then felt even more wrong.

The tone of the next door is so eager that you don’t forget to respect? This is really unreasonable.

Lin Jie couldn’t help but think of his guess just now, and said, “Mr. Ke Lin, are you sure that there is nothing wrong with your body? You need to rest enough to live a better life.”

Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Colin’s forehead.

Why is he asking this question?

Did he do something to my body, what hands and feet?

Now it is warning me not to act rashly, otherwise I will not be able to live well…

Colin looked at the TV in front of him, looked at the email in his hand that he hesitated for a long time and didn’t send, his whole body was stiff, and he fell into an ice cellar for a moment.

Lin Jie’s voice came from next door: “Mr. Colin?”

Colin trembled, his hands shook, and he looked down to see that he had sent the email.

Recipient: Fr. Vincent of the Dome Church.

He was almost scared out of his wits.

Trying his best to restrain his trembling and the swearing in his mouth, Colin gritted his teeth and thought viciously: This is the end of the matter, and it’s too late for him to repent.

Now that the news has reached the priest, if he can continue to hide it for a while, maybe he can survive.

Father of the Dome Church, save him!

“Huh… nothing, I have no problem, thank you for your concern.”

Colin forced himself to calmly pretend to be relaxed.

Hearing such an answer, Lin Jie felt that he was trying to be brave, but it was hard to expose it.

“In that case, I won’t bother.”

Lin Jie thought about whether to buy a condolence gift and visit the neighbor.

“jingle.”

The bell at the door of the bookstore suddenly made a crisp sound.

Lin Jie raised his head and said, “Welcome.”

When he saw a strange little girl coming in, he thought to himself, it seems that there is indeed a new guest today.

The one who walked into the bookstore was a red-haired girl who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old.

She has a youthful and bright face, impressive bright eyes, fair skin with light pink, tall and tall, wearing a white T-shirt and denim overalls, and a pair of playful bright yellow round-toed rain boots on her feet .

Long thick red hair is braided into a rough braid, draped over the left shoulder, with a peaked cap on top of the head, and a black umbrella is being put away in the hand.

— very rarely, a young guest.

“Is there anything you need?”

asked the young man sitting behind the counter.

Melissa looked around the entire bookstore curiously, and then turned her attention to Lin Jie.

She jumped to the counter in three steps at a time, pulled the stool and sat down, dangling her legs, and asked with her chin in her hands, “Are you the owner of this bookstore?”

Lin Jie nodded and said with a smile: “Yes, I am. If you need anything, just tell me, whether it’s borrowing books, buying books, or simply reading books, it doesn’t matter.”

He doesn’t seem to be that strong…

Is this bookstore really a Class I?

Could Dad have made a mistake?

A series of doubts flashed in Melissa’s mind.

She inspected the store carefully, only the gargoyle in the store should be the creation of a dark wizard, and the others are completely ordinary.

Looking at the young man in front of her with some disappointment, Melissa even forgot that she only wanted to borrow a book to read the ending of “Children of the Abyss”, which she hadn’t finished.

This is too common…

Thinking of braving the rain and the risk of being scolded by my father after he found out, I didn’t find the mysterious and charming bookstore I expected.

I couldn’t help but get a little sulking.

“Is it okay to ask for anything?”

Melissa put her chin in her hands and muttered.

What are the children thinking now, a drop of cold sweat slid down Lin Jie’s forehead, and he maintained a business smile and said: “Of course some excessive demands are not acceptable.”

Melissa clapped her hands on the counter: “I want to wrestle with you, is that too much?”
