Chen Chong was lying on the bed, facing the window in the direction of his head. Thunderstorms outside were striking, and huge raindrops crackled on the window, as if he could break the glass at any time.

On the bedside table next to it was a cup of warm water with white mist rising and a book called "Bedtime Story" that I had bought for a long time but had never read. The phone was charging.

"As the current trend, if you cook faster and prepare the ingredients yourself, it is not difficult to complete simple tasks. As for ordinary tasks, it still requires money."

Thinking of this, Chen Chong opened the drawer of the bedside table, and the turnover today was neatly placed inside, which was about 2,000 yuan. In addition to the cost of purchasing ingredients and various invisible expenses, the profit was about 1,300 yuan.

"As long as you maintain this momentum and maintain a few more days of business, plus the thousands of savings on hand, you can temporarily sell the storefront next door and pay rent in a quarter, and there will be no economic pressure."

Putting the money back into the drawer, Chen Chong's mouth unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.

"As long as the store size becomes larger and more customers, the income will get better and better! The only headache is that the speed of cooking is a big problem. If this problem is not solved, it will directly affect the scale expansion."

Chen Chong curled his smile. This was a serious problem, but unfortunately he couldn't think of a suitable solution for a while.

I got out of bed and checked the cat's nest on the other side. The black cat was focusing on eating fat fish and had no time to respond to his warning eyes.

"If you can go to the toilet at night, the door is open, don't go wild like a wild cat."

After Chen Chong nagged, he entered the game of doom and received difficult tasks.

Chen Chong looked at the time. It was twelve o'clock in less than three minutes. So he quickly found the candle that had not been used up last time and fixed it on the windowsill, and hid the bone-chopping knife under the pillow.

"As the task is constantly being completed, all the tasks are gradually increasing. I hope this time I won't encounter the weird thing about the last boxing game."

After praying in his heart, Chen Chong seized the time to light the candle and then turned off the lights in the room.

The glass reflected his reflection, and with the candlelight, it was dark and bright, it felt unreal, which made him unconsciously think of the female ghost in the mirror.

"I have Xuanmao now. Even though this little guy is not friendly with me, when I live in the same space, those dirty things cannot ignore their existence."

Chen Chong felt a little confident, looked at the rain like a curtain outside the window, and silently said: Who knocked on the door tonight? Then, he set the alarm clock as required by the phone and quickly got into the bed.

Originally, it was impossible to fall asleep under this situation, but maybe it was because he was too tired during the day or because it was easy to make people sleepy on rainy days, he fell asleep in a few minutes.

The candlelight on the windowsill shone on his face, breathing evenly and sleeping soundly.

"Meow."

The black cat quietly came to the bedside, looked at the faint candlelight, and then looked at Chen Chong who was sleeping. Then he jumped gently, curled up at the end of the bed, with his little head on the edge of the bed, staring at the bathroom one by one, as if something was attracting it.

At one moment, the candlelight on the windowsill swayed slightly, and a drop of melted wax liquid flowed down the side, and finally solidified on the windowsill.

...

Chen Chong saw that the restaurant entrance was full of super cars, and helicopters were parked on the roofs of all the facades. Hot air balloons floated by in the sky, with the words "The world's number one delicacy" written on it.

The colorful flags of the food street were flying, and various cameras were aimed at the restaurant entrance, and more people were flocking toward this place in the distance.

Through the window on the second floor, you can see that the open space downstairs are full of crazy guests holding banknotes. They roared, cried, and longed, hoping that they could open the door.

Bang bang bang

Someone was setting off a salute, and the shells exploded in the sky, and the rain of money floated, laying a thick layer on the ground.

"Boss Chen, I sold the entire company just to eat the fish-flavored shredded pork rice you made!"

"Boss Chen, I have been waiting downstairs for a year. My wife and children support me, and relatives and friends encourage me to make sure I must fulfill my great ideals in life and try the food you make!"

…

Various pleading sounds sounded in my ears, and Chen Chong experienced unprecedented satisfaction and pride.

The corners of my mouth seemed wet, but when I reached out to touch it, I couldn't find anything.

Didi

The alarm clock at the head of the bed rang a few times, and Chen Chong turned it off.

Didi

The alarm clock sounded at the drawer of the bedside table. Chen Chong frowned and took it out and was still on the ground, and stepped hard.

Didi

Why is there any more? Chen Chong lifted the quilt and found that an alarm clock appeared on the bed at some point. He picked up a box of banknotes at his feet and smashed the alarm clock.

Didi

Um?

Chen Chong noticed something was wrong. When he looked back, he found that the floor was full of various alarm clocks. He was so angry that he was busy, shutting down and smashing, and sweating profusely.

One, two, one thousand, two thousand

He didn't know how many of them he smashed, and the annoying voice was still there!

Suddenly, behind me was covered with shadows. When I turned my head, I saw that an alarm clock larger than a skyscraper was making a loud noise!

Chen Chong was at a loss, his heart was jumping faster and faster with the sound of "Didi" and became more and more fierce. Just as he was about to suffocate, he was shocked, his eyes blinked quickly, and all the surrounding scenery disappeared, and replaced by darkness!

"So it's a dream"

Chen Chong shook his head, his eyes slowly returned to normal, and he smiled like a fool.

Didi

The phone on the bedside table vibrated and rang. The alarm clock was probably at 3:33. I took it in my hand and saw that it had been five minutes since then.

I quickly adjusted my breathing and looked around the room. It was no different from before going to bed. The candle on the windowsill was still lit. I lifted the quilt and moved my body for a while, but I didn't feel any discomfort.

"Is this difficult task a way to make me have that incredible dream?"

Unsure, shook his head, reached out and pressed the light switch at the head of the bed, but found that there was no response.

“The power outage?”

Chen Chong noticed something was wrong because the surroundings were too quiet, as quiet as a pool of stagnant water!

Just now, the phone that had been ringing all the time just now suddenly blacked the screen, and then a footstep that seemed to be there and there was nothing sounded on the first floor.

"I'm afraid the mission has just begun now."

Chen Chong pursed his lips, held the candle on the windowsill in his hand, and then touched the kitchen knife hidden under the pillow, and was shocked.

"The kitchen knife is gone?"
