Chapter 224 Qin Ming
Qin Ming is an orphan.
An 18-year-old online writer with HIV.
He is not a person who likes to mess around with his private life.
On the contrary, he is very traditional.
He has only one girlfriend, a sister who is ten years older than him.
God knows how much damage a young woman can do to an innocent virgin.
They broke up a few days ago.
It's not because Qin Ming is a street writer who makes little money, but because the sister is a psychopathic HIV carrier.
How to say it?
On Qin Ming's eighteenth birthday, his sister who was ten years older than him gave him a gift in an exquisite gift box.
When Qin Ming saw that the content in the gift box was an HIV medical examination form, Qin Ming's whole world was in trouble.
He wanted to contact the sister, but the sister had blocked him.
Spreading the virus was obviously a crime, but Qin Ming did not call the police.
Because she was the woman who had slept with him, even if she was cheated on.
At night, this street is deserted.
Most of the shops on both sides of the road have their doors closed, with 'For Rent' signs hanging on them.
It was going to rain, and the streets were deserted, with almost no pedestrians visible. Only the occasional gust of wind blew up waste paper and swirled it around on the ground.
In the midst of the depression, a bar lights up alone.
Qin Ming had never been to a bar or eaten in a public place. He was afraid that his virus would cause inconvenience to others.
However, Qin Ming really wanted to have a drink today.
Not only because of emotional frustration, but also career frustration.
Let’s call his online writing work a career.
After breaking up with the young woman's sister, the young woman's sister took away Qin Ming's joy and his writing skills.
That night, Qin Ming lost his inspiration and could no longer write a good novel.
The editor told him that it didn't matter if he pounced once, he would pounce again anyway.
Qin Ming walked under the bar door light and suddenly felt that there was such an atmosphere here.
The dim and warm light of the silent street is a beacon, giving some people a haven to temporarily escape reality.
This door lamp is like him, they are both lonely heroes in the "Les Miserables".
Qin Ming pushed open the door of the bar.
No drinkers, no waiters.
Under the soft light, there was only a young boss in a black suit sitting at the bar reading a book.
Qin Ming felt a kind of artistic conception.
It's like the kind in novels, a weird bar in the corner of the city.
For example, the boss is a strange existence in the game world with mysterious powers.
Qin Ming knew that he had an occupational disease, shook his head, and walked to the bar:
"How should I order wine?"
Many people who go to a bar for the first time will pretend that it is not their first time there.
They have a feeling of 'newcomer' constraint.
Qin Ming is very calm. It must be said that his lack of vanity is also an advantage.
Li Yang looked at the book without raising his head:
"There is a menu at the bar. If you need a special cocktail, currently you can only choose a martini."
Qin Ming took a look at the menu.
I was thinking, since we all come to the bar anyway, why don’t we drink the alcohol available on the market?
Qin Ming is sitting on a high chair:
"Then let's have a martini."
Li Yang raised his head and glanced at Qin Ming appreciatively:
“Tasteful.”
He closed the book and started making martinis at the mixing station.
Qin Ming added after Li Yang:
"Give me a disposable paper cup."
Soon, a cup of turbid liquid was delivered to Qin Ming in a paper cup.
In fact, a martini should not be this color.
Li Yang lit a cigarette and looked at Qin Ming, like a chef watching his guests taste his dishes.
Qin Ming took a sip and tasted it.
A bit unpleasant to drink.
He regretted not asking for a beer.
This stuff tastes bad and expensive.
After all, he spent money. Qin Ming took a small sip and looked at the surrounding environment.
There were no customers and no waiters. It seemed like this bar was in a bad mood.
No wonder, the wine made is so bad, it’s strange to have guests. Li Yang said quietly:
"Actually, the business of this bar is pretty good."
Qin Ming was stunned for a moment:
"Can you hear my heart?"
Li Yang glanced:
"It's written on your face."
Qin Ming smiled awkwardly.
Li Yang continued:
"This bar does not simply accept any form of currency."
Qin Ming raised his eyebrows slightly:
"You can buy things without money? What to use?"
What a strange bar, it feels more and more like an urban ghost story.
Li Yang flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said word by word:
"Desire."
Qin Ming murmured and repeated these two words:
"Desire..."
Qin Ming raised his head and said with a smile:
"Boss, you are so interesting. You are quite suitable for writing novels."
Li Yang held a cigarette.
Blue and thin smoke rose between the two of them, like a barrier separating two different worlds.
Li Yang said lightly:
"Theoretically, in this bar, you can get anything you want."
When he spoke, he was calm and confident, simply telling an appalling fact.
Qin Ming stared at Li Yang carefully.
Expect to find traces of joking on his face.
Unfortunately, he didn't see it.
The boss looked calm, not like a normal human being, but more and more like an urban ghost story.
Qin Ming felt a little scared and joked:
"Okay, how about I trade my desire for your bar?"
Li Yang glanced at Qin Ming, as if he wanted to see through Qin Ming.
Qin Ming felt goosebumps rising on his skin, and the hairs on his back stood up.
Li Yang withdrew his gaze and shook his head:
"There is no desire in you."
Qin Ming was sure the boss was joking.
He relaxed and was about to say something when the boss in front of him spoke ahead of time.
Li Yang stared directly into Qin Ming's eyes and said:
"Your desires are worthless, but I like your freedom.
You can trade your freedom for this bar. ”
Qin Ming was a little stunned when he was stared at, but under the influence of alcohol, he obviously did not realize the seriousness of the problem.
He took a sip of wine, smiled and said:
"Okay."
Li Yang smiled.
The lights in the entire bar suddenly went out.
A contract appeared on the bar.
The big title on the contract is 'Desire Merchant Contract'.
Immediately afterwards, the contract was burning, burning rapidly.
Qin Ming thought he was drunk and quickly rubbed his eyes.
At this time, the lights of the bar came on again.
The 'Desire Merchant Contract' is no longer on the bar, but a bar transfer contract.
At the end of the contract, Qin Ming has signed it.
Qin Ming's eyes widened and he looked at this scene in disbelief.
Li Yang picked up the round hat beside the table and put it on his head:
"From today on, this bar is yours.
According to the agreement, the money earned by this bar belongs to you, the desire belongs to me, and we each get what we need.
The instructions for this bar are in the book at the bar, so you need to read them carefully. ”
After speaking, Li Yang walked towards the door.
"No..."
Qin Ming was mostly awake from the wine, and he stopped Li Yang who was about to leave.
Li Yang turned around:
"You must read it carefully, otherwise you will die."
