Chapter 9: Coal boss and Ruhua

   Aoki went in and sat down at the bar counter, and said unceremoniously: "Two beers, iced, on the bill."

 Bi Shenghua said: "Your bill is enough to wipe your **** for a year, when will you pay it?"

   Aoki drank his beer and said, "It hurts feelings to talk about money."

   "It hurts feelings if you don't talk about money!" The flower of life threw the beer glass on the bar, splashing a bunch of foam.

   Hu Xing giggled, and Aoki smiled foolishly.

   Bi Shenghua shook her head and sighed, and said, "Hurry up and drink, there is a mallet upstairs waiting for a long time."

   "What club?"

   "I came to you for consultation, but what is it?"

   Aoki's eyes widened: "Will you let the stranger upstairs before I come back?"

   "Do you have any valuables upstairs? Are you afraid that someone will steal your coal boss, oh!" Lifetime Hua said disdainfully, "Somehow they spent three hundred yuan with me."

   Aoki shrugged towards Hu Xing, expressing helplessness, and then led Hu Xing to the back door.

   Bishenghua threw a bag of things over in the air and said, "Give it to the coal boss."

   Aoki took it in his hand, and without asking, he slipped into his pocket.

   Hu Xing wondered who the coal boss is, and she was embarrassed to ask, is it possible that there is no turbulence upstairs, even the coal boss works here?

   The aisle on the second floor is full of miscellaneous things, and there is a row of old chairs near the window, just like those waiting in a hospital.

   Sitting on a chair is a middle-aged man in his thirties.

   "Master Aoki is back!" The middle-aged man stood up and bowed, "Oh, why are there comrades police?"

   Hu Xing found that the man's eyes flickered when he looked at her. Based on his instinct as a detective, this man must have a problem.

   "What? Can't the police come?" Hu Xing asked back.

   "I can come, I can come." The middle-aged man's back bowed even more, "I came at an untimely time."

   "Are you looking for me?" Aoki asked.

   "Ah, my name is Ma Fuqing, I'm looking for Master Aoki." The middle-aged man probably found that Aoki was younger and didn't look like a master at all, so he couldn't make up his mind.

   "Go in and sit down." Aoki didn't show enthusiasm, and only greeted lazily, putting his hands in his trouser pockets, kicking and moving a few steps forward, and stopped in front of a door.

   The sign of "Shenwu Workshop" is hung on the door, and couplets are pasted on both sides:

   Only Aoki,

   can live in the gods.

   Hu Xing said these eight words silently, feeling that there should be a profound meaning in them.

   Aoki opened the door and turned to signal them to go in.

   Hu Xing didn't see him take out the key, and judged that the door should have been unlocked.

  The room in the studio is not big, it is square, and the shelves against the wall are full of various books. There is a desk in the middle, with a sofa and coffee table on the left. The messy magazines, newspapers and cigarette butts are a bit like the scene of the criminal police team working overtime in a conference room during a big case.

   Aoki pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit down."

   Hu Xing sat openly. Ma Fuqing waited for Hu Xing to sit down, and then carefully sat down on the edge of the other sofa.

   Aoki did not greet them at this time, but shouted into the air: "Boss Coal, Boss Coal!"

   There is no response.

   Hu Xing saw a small door in the room and guessed that the coal boss Aoki called should be sleeping inside.

   Aoki took out the bag of things that the proprietress downstairs gave him, as if to throw it away, and shouted: "Boss Coal, if you don't come out again, you won't have the delicious food that Huahua made for you!"

   Hearing a loud noise, a black shadow flew out from nowhere, flashed twice in the room, and landed on the coffee table in front of Aoki.

   Hu Xing then saw that the dark shadow was a crow.

   The crow screamed, raised his neck and opened his mouth wide to Aoki, like a young swallow waiting to be fed, his throat made a gurgling sound.

   Aoki picked a fingernail-sized one from the food in the fresh-keeping bag and threw it into the crow's mouth.

   The crow swallowed the food, twisted his neck happily, and shouted, "Jiang elbow, delicious, jelly elbow, delicious."

   Hu Xing almost dropped his chin: "It can talk!"

   She has seen talking parrots and mynahs. She has never seen a talking crow. She has a clear pronunciation and a pure accent. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have never thought that this is a bird learning tongue.

  Ma Fuqing even opened his mouth in amazement, and even said, "Divine bird, divine bird!"

   Aoki smiled and said, "The crow is the smartest animal besides humans."

   Hu Xing didn't believe it, and said: "Are you smarter than the orangutan?"

   I saw the crow suddenly turned his head and yelled at her with a strange noise in his throat, and then said in human language: "Stupid apes, stupid apes."

   "Ha, really smart enough!" Hu Xing said.

   Aoki threw another bite to the crow, and said, "Aren't you going to thank the lady boss?"

   The crow swallowed food, fluttered its wings, jumped up, flew out of the room, stopped at about the passageway, and shouted at the stairs:

   "Thank you-madam. Thank you-madam."

   called a few times, but got no response, the bird began to sing with a special long trembling tone:

   "like—flower—, such as—flower—..."

   I heard the sound of the washbasin falling to the ground downstairs, and then came the scolding voice of the proprietress:

   "To die! Scream again, be careful, I pull out your bird feathers, stew tomatoes and potatoes, add three spoons of sugar, and stew your black crow into a sky crane!"

   The corridor was silent for ten seconds, and then there was a strange cry from the crow monster:

   "Fear-afraid-oh-"

   Then there was another metal knocking downstairs, and there was the sound of footsteps from the stairs.

   Hu Xing saw the crow flapping its wings and flying back, stopped on the table, and shouted at Aoki:

   "Close the door! The flower is going crazy! Close the door! The lady boss is going crazy!"

   Hu Xing couldn't help it anymore, and laughed loudly, so that the slender body wrapped in the police uniform was trembling constantly. Even the cautious Ma Fuqing grinned wildly and couldn't close his smile.

"Uh oh—" Seeing that people ignored him, the crow turned to look at the door. After watching for a long time, he didn't see the life flower appearing. Then he shook his feathers relaxedly, then opened his mouth wide and asked Qing Mu. Ask for food.

   Aoki threw the whole bag of elbow meat in sauce on the table, UU reading www.uukanshu. com said: "Take it for yourself, don't eat it."

   The crow grabbed the meat bag with its paws and flew to the screen wall behind the table. Hu Xingcai saw a bird stand there, and there were food boxes on the shelf. The crow threw the meat bag into the food box, used his beak and claws to pull it a few times, and then pulled out the plastic bag.

   "This is what you call the ‘coal boss’?" Hu Xing was curious, and he was drunk when he gave his pet such a weird name.

   "Yes." Aoki said, "Look at it black and black, how domineering the coal boss is!"

   "You are really weird here." Hu Xing chuckled, and then picked up a magazine. "Well, I'll read the book for a while. If you have anything, just talk about it and leave me alone."

   Aoki looked at Ma Fuqing: "Say something."

   "Um, I..." Ma Fuqing glanced at Hu Xing's dazzling police uniform, and then turned into a twisted look, "I just... want to ask the master to explain a dream."

   Aoki asked: "What dream?"

   Ma Fuqing said: "I always dream of a woman recently."

   Aoki did not speak.

   This kind of dream is so common, no one will spend a lot of time to find someone to interpret the dream because of an ordinary dream. Aoki is not a well-known person, Ma Fuqing must have been around for a long time to find him.

Sure enough, Ma Fuqing went on to say: "She chased me, saying that she wanted my life. I can't run away, and I wake up every time I get caught by her. I have this dream every few days, and I can't fall asleep when I do it, and I feel flustered when I get up. My mother and my brother both fell ill recently and were confused. I just wanted to ask the master to see if we were entangled by ghosts."

   Aoki asked, "Who is that woman?"

   Ma Fuqing stammered and said, "No, I don’t know, that woman...she...has no head."
