my host does things all day

Chapter 379 (Special episode 1) That person looks like a dog

My name is Lu Zijin, I am 25 years old, and I am a homeless man.

Five years ago, I was not what I am now.

The me five years ago didn’t have long, greasy, dirty and messy hair, I didn’t wear this shabby but clean clothes, and I didn’t eat steamed buns that cost RMB [-] each and were dry and without any oil or water.

But I also said, that was five years ago.

Everything five years ago seemed like a dream to me.

The only thing that can remind me that it is not a dream but a reality is the 24-hour bookstore.

I didn't know that bookstores could still be open 24 hours.

I thought bookstores were all decorated in different styles, very artistic, and only open for eight hours a day.

But I didn't know that it could be open 24 hours like a convenience store.

I later learned that bookstores and convenience stores are the same in nature.

It's just that one fills the stomach, and the other fills the spirit.

At the beginning, I didn't dislike this 24-hour bookstore.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't have a soft sofa, and it doesn't even have a stool.

If you want to read, you can only choose to stand, lean against the wall, or sit directly on the ground to read.

To be honest, I, who has a good education, can't accept it.

So I looked for a lot of other bookstores in the city.

Either it's not open 24 hours, or it's disgusting for me as a homeless person.

Finally, after going around for a while, I returned to this bookstore.

And at first glance, it was five years.

Late that night, as usual, I wanted to go into the bookstore to read books all night. I saw that I went out early in the morning to buy a steamed bun and ate it while walking. When I reached the bridge hole, I just finished eating and went to bed.

However, I was stopped by a middle-aged woman.

It's not the first time I've seen her mocking eyes and disdainful words.

I lowered my head and let her scold. I was going to go in when she was tired of scolding.

Anyway, I have plenty of time.

At this time, a beautiful woman appeared.

She unceremoniously flirted with the middle-aged woman, and ran away in anger.

It was the first time I saw a woman so disregarding her image, and it was also the first time I saw such a beautiful woman.

But so what?
What has it got to do with me?
Without the obstruction of the middle-aged woman, I easily entered the bookstore.

I thought everything would be the same as before.

However, the woman came to me.

She struck up a conversation with me, she said that I didn't know where I was reading, and she asked my name.

She is really different from other women.

In the past five years, almost all young women unconsciously frowned and backed away after seeing me.

It was as if there was a plague on me.

But she didn't.

But I still don't want to talk to her.

I don't want to be in contact with people, not even angels.

But she actually bought all the books I wanted to read.

What does this woman... have in mind for me?

She threatened to never let me see the books again if I didn't go with her.

No, I have to read the book, otherwise how can there be a chance for revenge?
So, I boarded a pirate ship named Bingling, and I never got off from there.

Until she died, until I watched her body be cremated, until, I was holding the necklace around my neck.

I looked down at the shiny "diamond" on the necklace.

Another five years.

Bing Lime has been going for five years.

During these five years, countless people have asked me where I bought the "diamond" that hangs on this necklace.
