Chapter 581 - 581 Prank
“I’m not sure either. When I opened the door at six in the morning, I found it there. It’s a large wooden box that’s more than two meters long and more than a meter wide. I don’t know what’s inside, but the recipient’s name was yours,” the housemaid said after thinking for a moment.
Although Zhou Hao was puzzled, he still leisurely finished his breakfast after listening to the housemaid’s description.
A few minutes later, Zhou Hao went to the door.
He looked at the tightly sealed rectangular wooden box in front of him and couldn’t figure out who sent it to him.
“Mr. Zhou, there’s a note on the label. It says that this is a gift carefully prepared for you and that you can hopefully open it yourself,” the housemaid added.
“Prank?” Zhou Hao thought to himself.
Although he thought so, Zhou Hao still circled the big wooden box of unknown origin a few times.
Very quickly, he discovered the way to open it. There were exquisite clasps embedded around the wooden box. As long as he pried these clasps open, he would be able to open it.
After a few clicks, Zhou Hao finally opened all the clasps.
“Mr. Zhou, wipe your sweat.” The housemaid handed him a towel.
Zhou Hao took the towel. His curiosity was growing. What could there be inside?
“Go and push open the lid cover,” Zhou Hao suddenly said, looking at the housemaid who was standing submissively by the side.
To be on the safe side, it was a good choice for let others try opening a blind box, especially such a large one of unknown origin.
The housemaid did not move.
She shook her head and took a few steps back in fear.
“I’ll give you 10,000 yuan. Go ahead,” Zhou Hao said indifferently.
As he spoke, he picked up his phone and transferred 10,000 yuan to her.
When the housemaid heard the notification sound of 10,000 yuan being transferred to her account, the fear on her face instantly vanished and she said confidently, “Leave it to me.”
Of course, she wasn’t stupid enough to push it with her hands. Zhou Hao only told her to open it, but he didn’t say which method she should use.
The housemaid walked back to her room and came out with a wooden stick that had been spliced together to form a stick that was more than two meters long. She held one end of the wooden stick against the already-loose wooden box and the other in her hand. She slowly pushed it forcefully.
Zhou Hao’s expression was calm. He was not in a hurry.
The top layer of the lid was pushed to the ground with a dull thud.
“Mr. Zhou, it’s open.” The housemaid tossed aside the stick in her hand.
“Go and take a look.” Although Zhou Hao was very curious about what was inside, he did not take a look directly to be err on the side of caution.
Before the box was opened, Zhou Hao had already put on a well-sealed helmet… The housemaid had also put on a face mask, afraid that the moment the box was opened, poisonous gas would leak out.
“Let’s wait a little longer, in case something unexpected happens,” the housemaid suggested with a silly smile.
Ten minutes later.
Half an hour later… Zhou Hao was no longer in the mood to look at his phone. He looked at the housemaid impatiently.
“I’ll go and see now.” The housemaid also realized that if she still did not go to take a look, it would be a little unreasonable.
The housemaid cautiously inched her body closer step by step, maintaining a retreating posture at all times.
A moment later, she was finally only a few centimeters away from the mysterious box.
Zhou Hao looked at the housemaid who was slowly sticking her head out like a turtle. He really wanted to kick her from behind.
“Ah!” After seeing the box’s contents, the housemaid let out a shrill scream that pierced the ears of Zhou Hao, who was wearing a helmet.
The housemaid retreated a few steps in a daze and fell to the ground with a terrified expression.
If she had known what was in the big box, she would rather not have the 10,000 yuan.
After all, the item in the box would be a lingering nightmare that she would have till her dying days.
The housemaid’s pale face was a little blank. Then, her stomach began to churn. Even though she was wearing a face mask, she could still think of the smell.
The housemaid took off her mask and began to vomit.
Then, she looked up at Zhou Hao, who was still wearing his helmet, and said in despair, “Mr. Zhou, let’s call the police.”
“That’s not a possibility.” Zhou Hao took off his helmet expressionlessly.
Judging from the housemaid’s reaction, whatever was in the big box shouldn’t be deadly. Even if it was dangerous, Zhou Hao wouldn’t call the police.
However, the next moment, Zhou Hao, who had taken off his helmet, smelled a scent that he would never forget for the rest of his life.
