Chapter 728: Witch, They Are Witches!
"I am a failure, I don't pay much attention to whether the sun is bright or not, because there is no time.
"My parents couldn't provide me with support, my education wasn't high, and I was alone in the city looking for the future.
"I found many jobs, but none of them hired me. Maybe no one likes someone who is not good at speaking, doesn't love communication, and hasn't shown enough ability.

"I only ate two pieces of bread for three whole days. Hunger made me unable to sleep at night. Fortunately, I paid a month's rent in advance and could continue to live in that dark basement, without having to go outside to bear the unusually cold wind in winter.
"Finally, I found a job, guarding the night at the hospital, guarding the morgue.
"The night at the hospital was colder than I thought. The wall lamps in the corridor were not lit, it was dim everywhere, and I could only rely on the little light that penetrated from the room to help me see my feet.
"The smell there was very unpleasant. From time to time, the dead were stuffed into body bags and sent over. We cooperated to help him move into the morgue.
"This is not a very good job, but at least it allows me to afford bread. The free time at night can also be used for study. After all, no one wants to come to the morgue unless there are corpses that need to be sent or transported for cremation. Of course, I don't have enough money to buy books yet, and I don't see any hope of saving money.
"I have to thank my predecessor colleague. If it weren't for his sudden resignation, I might not even have been able to get such a job.
"I dream of being able to rotate to be responsible for the day. Now I always sleep when the sun comes out and get up after the night comes, which makes my body a bit weak, and my head occasionally hurts.
"One day, the porter sent a new corpse.
"Listening to others, this is my former colleague who resigned suddenly.
"I was a bit curious about him. After everyone left, I pulled out the cabinet and quietly opened the body bag.
"He was an old man, his face was blue and white, full of wrinkles, and looked very scary under the very dark light.
"He didn't have much hair, most of it was white, and all his clothes were taken off, not even a piece of cloth was left for him.

"I saw a strange mark on his chest, blue-black, I can't describe the specific appearance, the light at that time was really too dark.
"I reached out and touched that mark, nothing special.
"Looking at this former colleague, I was thinking, if I keep going like this, when I get old, will I be the same as him...
"I said to him, tomorrow I will accompany him to the crematorium and personally take his ashes to the nearest free cemetery, so that those responsible for these things don't find it troublesome and just throw them in a river or a wasteland.
"This will sacrifice one morning of my sleep, but fortunately, it will be Sunday soon, and I can make up for it.
"After saying that, I fixed the body bag and stuffed it back into the cabinet.
"The light in the room seemed to be darker...
"After that day, every time I sleep, I always dream of a thick fog.
"I have a premonition that something will happen soon, a premonition that sooner or later something that I don't know if it can be called a human will come to find me, but no one is willing to believe me, thinking that in such an environment and such a job, my spirit has become abnormal and I need to see a doctor..."
A male guest sitting at the bar looked at the storyteller who stopped suddenly:
"And then?"
This male guest is in his thirties, wearing a brown tweed jacket and light yellow trousers, his hair is pressed very flat, and there is a simple dark top hat beside his hand.
He looks ordinary, like most people in the tavern, black hair, light blue eyes, not good-looking, not ugly, lacking obvious features.
And the storyteller in his eyes is an eighteen or nineteen-year-old young man, with a tall figure and slender limbs, also with short black hair and light blue eyes, but with deep features, which can make people's eyes shine.
The young man looked at the empty wine glass in front of him and sighed:
"Then?

"Then I resigned and returned to the countryside, coming here to brag with you."
As he spoke, a smile appeared on his face, with a bit of a teasing meaning.
The male guest froze:
"Are you bragging about what you just said?"
"Haha." A burst of laughter erupted around the bar.
The laughter subsided slightly, and a thin middle-aged man looked at the guest who looked a bit embarrassed:
"Outsider, you actually believe Lu Huan Mian's story. He tells a different one every day. Yesterday he was a loser who had his engagement canceled by his fiancée because of poverty, and today he became a morgue guard!"
"Yes, saying thirty years on the east side of the Sailunzuohe, thirty years on the right side of the Sailunzuohe, only knowing how to talk nonsense!" Another tavern regular followed.
They are all farmers in Kordu, a large village, wearing short jackets that are black, gray, or brown.
The young man with black hair named Lu Huan Mian supported the bar with both hands, stood up slowly, and smiled:
"You know, this is not a story I made up, it was written by my sister. She likes writing stories the most, and she is also a columnist for "Novel Weekly"."
After speaking, he turned his body, spread his hands to the guest from outside, and smiled brilliantly:
"It seems she wrote it really well.
"Sorry, I made you misunderstand."
The man in the brown tweed jacket, who looked ordinary, didn't get angry, stood up, and responded with a smile:
"A very interesting story.
"How to address you?"
"Isn't it common sense to introduce yourself before asking others?" Lu Huan Mian smiled.
The guest from outside nodded:
"My name is Ryan Kos.
"These two are my companions Valentine and Leah."
The latter sentence refers to a man and a woman sitting next to him.
The man is twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with a little powder on his yellow hair, and his eyes, which are not big, have a color a little deeper than lake blue. He is wearing a white vest, a blue fine tweed coat, and black trousers, and he was obviously carefully dressed before going out.
He looked quite indifferent and didn't look at the farmers and herdsmen around him much.
The woman looked younger than the two men, with long light gray hair tied into a complex bun, and a white veil wrapped around as a hat.
Her eyes were the same color as her hair, and her gaze toward Lu Huan Mian carried undisguised laughter. She seemed to find what happened just now only interesting.
Under the light of the tavern's gas wall lamp, the woman named Leah revealed a tall nose and beautifully curved lips, which is definitely a beauty in the countryside like Kordu village.
She wore a white unpleated cashmere tight skirt, with a beige small jacket and a pair of Masier long boots. There were also two small silver bells tied to the veil and boots respectively. When she walked into the tavern just now, it was *ding-ding-dang-dang* all the way, which was very eye-catching, making many men look straight.
In their eyes, this must be the fashionable dress only available in big cities like the provincial capital Bigor and the capital Trier.
Lu Huan Mian nodded to the three outsiders:
"My name is Lu Huan Mian Lee, you can call me Lu Huan Mian directly."
"Lee?" Leah blurted out.
"What's wrong, is there any problem with my surname?" Lu Huan Mian asked curiously.
Ryan Kos explained for Leah:
"This surname of yours makes people afraid. I almost couldn't control my voice just now."
Seeing that the farmers and herdsmen around were puzzled, he further explained:
"People who have been in contact with sailors and sea merchants all know that there is such a saying circulating on the Five Seas:
"Rather encounter those pirate generals and even kings than meet a person named Frank Lee.
"That person's surname is also Lee."
"Is he very scary?" Lu Huan Mian asked.
Ryan shook his head:
"I don't know, but since there is such a legend, it certainly won't be bad."
He stopped the topic and said to Lu Huan Mian:
"Thank you for your story, it is worth a drink, what do you want?"
"A glass of 'Green Fairy'." Lu Huan Mian was not polite at all and sat down again.
Ryan Kos frowned slightly:
"'Green Fairy'... Absinthe?
"I think I need to remind you that absinthe is harmful to the human body. This kind of wine may cause mental confusion and make you have hallucinations."
"I didn't expect the fashion trend of Trier to have spread here." Leah added with a smile.
Lu Huan Mian said "Oh":
"So people in Trier also like to drink 'Green Fairy'...
"For us, life is hard enough, there is no need to care about a little more harm. This kind of wine can make our spirits get greater relaxation."
"Alright." Ryan sat back in his seat and looked at the bartender, "A glass of 'Green Fairy', and add a glass of 'Spicy Heart' for me."
"Spicy Heart" is a famous fruit shochu.
"Why don't you give me a glass of 'Green Fairy'? I told you the truth just now, and I can tell you the situation of this kid exactly!" The thin middle-aged man who first exposed Lu Huan Mian telling stories every day shouted dissatisfiedly, "Outsider, I can see that you still have doubts about the truth of that story!"
"Pierre, for a free drink, you can really do anything!" Lu Huan Mian responded loudly.
Before Ryan made a decision, Lu Huan Mian added:
"Why can't I tell it myself? That way I can drink another glass of 'Green Fairy'?"
"Because they don't know whether to believe the situation you said." The middle-aged man named Pierre said triumphantly, "The story your sister loves to tell children most is 'The Boy Who Cried Wolf'. People who always lie will inevitably lose credibility."
"Alright." Lu Huan Mian shrugged, watching the bartender push a glass of pale green wine in front of him.
Ryan looked at him and asked:
"Is it okay?"
"No problem, as long as your wallet is enough to pay for these drinks." Lu Huan Mian didn't care at all.
"Then another glass of 'Green Fairy'." Ryan nodded.
Pierre was full of smiles:
"Generous outsider, this kid is the person who loves pranks most in the village. You must stay away from him."
"Five years ago, he was brought back to the village by his sister Aurore and never left again. Think about it, before that, he was only thirteen years old, how could he go to the hospital to be a morgue guard? Hmm, the nearest hospital to us is in Daliege at the foot of the mountain, which takes a whole afternoon to walk."
"Brought back to the village?" Leah asked keenly.
She tilted her head slightly, bringing out a *ding-ding-dang-dang* sound.
Pierre nodded:

"Then, he followed Aurore's surname 'Lee', and even the name 'Lu Huan Mian' was taken by Aurore."
"I forgot what I was called originally." Lu Huan Mian took a sip of absinthe and said with a smile.
It seems that he is not inferior or ashamed at all about his past being exposed like this. ===== CHAPTER 729 =====
