Weird Regulator

Late at night, the lights were still brightly lit in the Seventh Branch, and more and more people were gathering together.

After entering here, most people cherish every waking moment, so there are many people who stay up late, and even more people who stay up all night.

In addition, this mission was a three-star promotion mission for the hotel. When the female voice sounded, many clerks gathered in the lobby.

At this time, Jin Xi had completely repaired all the major and minor injuries on his body in a very short period of time, making him the same as he was a day ago.

Before she could calm down the excitement and strangeness in her heart, a pair of hands grabbed her arm and helped her up.

In her blurry vision, the woman with her ponytail waving her hair came to her.

Chang Nian's brows were full of anxiety and worry, and he asked before Jin Xi could speak:

"Why are you alone in Tongguan?"

Jin Xi woke up from her confusion. Seeing Chang Nian's appearance, she first smiled dumbly, then patted the back of her hand and said:

"It's okay, Sister Chang. Brother Tong is okay. He should be teleported back to the hotel soon."

Chang Nian was stunned for a moment. She didn't know what happened during the mission and why Jin Xi was the only one who returned to the hotel.

But after hearing her explanation, she stopped asking and just nodded politely, but the anxiety on her face did not fade away.

Jin Xi watched with his own eyes as the skin frame he brought back levitated from the ground, and finally floated deep into the second floor.

After confirming that it was correct, she immediately ran out of the door and brought Hong Fu, who was unconscious on the bridge, back to the store.

Everyone who could come back has come back, and now only Fang Shenyan and Tongguan are left.

Jin Xi breathed a sigh of relief. This was her first mission. She was already satisfied that she could make some achievements in such a difficult mission.

While thinking about the shortcomings in her performance, she walked to the room, thinking about summarizing after cleaning.

When passing by the stairs, she found that Chang Nian was still sitting on the chair, his eyes never leaving the door. It was obvious that he had not seen Tongguan for a moment and was worried for a moment.

Jin Xi hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and told Chang Nian everything he knew.

Tongguan has been assimilated by the broken-winged angel. His body belongs to a ghost, but his consciousness is still there.

According to the rules of Tianhai Hotel, as long as you still have consciousness, you can be teleported back to the branch after the mission.

This is an iron law that will never be broken no matter what happens.

So Jin Xi was not worried about any accidents.

With Jin Xi's explanation, Chang Nian's suspense was slightly relieved, but she still refused to leave and quietly waited for her husband.

At this time, Hong Fu had also been cured by the hotel and passed by Chang Nian while rubbing his stiff neck.

After seeing Chang Nian's condition, he returned and softly comforted:

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Brother Tong has a plan. He will definitely be back in less than a minute."

Seeing Jin Xi and Hong Fu both say this, Chang Nian pursed his lips and responded with a smile:

"I understand, go back and rest quickly."

After saying this, Hong Fu saw that Chang Nian still had no intention of getting up, so he didn't say anything more and was about to leave.

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps upstairs, and Yu Guo came downstairs with two fishing rods.

Just as he met Hong Fu face to face, Yu Guo's eyes lit up and he blocked Hong Fu's shoulders:

"Hey buddy, have you completed your mission?"

Hong Fu was restrained. He was stunned for a moment, then looked at the fishing gear in Yu Guo's hand and asked:

"What are you doing?"

Yu Guo grinned, approached mysteriously, and whispered:

"I took on a big job. There is a fish pond that says there are water ghosts. I'm going to take people to see it."

Hong Fu and Yu Guo have always had a good rapport, and the two crazy people always do such boring things together.

As soon as he heard Yu Guo's arrangements, he didn't even take a rest. He turned around and followed Yu Guo downstairs.

When passing by Chang Nian, he paused deliberately, but left the seventh branch without saying anything else.

The heat from the mission that had just ended subsided, and the first floor was empty, with only one chair and one person left.

Chang Nian leaned forward, looking longingly at the door, with rare hands holding the corners of her clothes, as if she was a thoughtful girl, waiting for her husband to return.

…

From dark sky, to daytime, and then to a night with the slanting moon hanging high in the sky.

Chang Nian sat on that chair and waited patiently. It was almost 24 hours before the mission ended.

While people were coming and going, she kept dreaming of that familiar figure coming back to her and saying:

"Sorry, I'm late."

Chang Nian couldn't wait any longer, so she stood up from the chair with a painful look on her face.

According to what Jin Xi and Hong Fu said, Tongguan should have returned a long time ago, but now it has been so long and there is no news at all.

There must be an accident, it must be!

Chang Nian stood up and was about to walk out, but at this moment a black figure suddenly flashed across the door.

The figure was slender and tall, but it was just passing by in a hurry. Judging from the figure, it should be a man.

Chang Nian ran over excitedly, but when she came to the door, she found that it was Fang Shenyan.

Fang Shenyan stood at the door, took a deep drag on his cigarette, glanced sideways at Chang Nian, and said slowly:

"Isn't Tongguan back?"

Chang Nian's emotions collapsed in an instant, and the nerves that had been tense all day and night broke at this moment.

After Fang Shenyan turned into a ghost, he returned from youth to middle age. He had returned after such a long time.

But why can't Tongguan come back?

What's even more terrifying is that Fang Shenyan said such a sentence when they met.

Chang Nianduo hopes to hear the same words as Jin Xi and Hong Fu, and maybe there is still a trace of fantasy.

But Fang Shenyan obviously knew something. He had long guessed that Tongguan would not be able to come back!

"What the hell do you know?!"

Chang Nian was on the verge of collapse. She was helpless all her life, growing up alone in that abandoned childhood.

She is a very strong woman, and it wasn't until she met Tongguan that she began to have a softer side.

In other words, Tongguan is everything to her, her last tenderness in facing the world.

Fang Shenyan slowly closed his eyes, unwilling to look at Chang Nian's face. After a moment of silence, he said:

“The rule that one can return with consciousness has a premise: he is still a human being.

But the situation in Tongguan is very special. He was assimilated, not possessed, nor did he survive serious injuries. "

There was a storm in Chang Nian's mind. Fang Shenyan didn't say it clearly, but she could have guessed it with her wisdom.

Tongguan has been assimilated by ghosts, and he is now a human and a ghost.

Even if he retains his human will, how can he return to the branch?

"Go to the World Heritage Museum to find him. Maybe you can see him again."

Fang Shenyan threw away the cigarette butt, turned around and left without looking at Chang Nian.

Chang Nian panicked, and she froze in the wind, her eyes falling on the ground at her feet, but she didn't see anything.

"Tongguan can't come back, Tongguan can't come back, Tongguan can't come back..."

"No! He is the most decisive person, he is the most capable person, he is..."

Chang Nian suddenly punched the wall with his right fist, beat his head hard, shook off those thoughts, took a deep breath and said to himself:

"He didn't really become a ghost. There must be a solution for humans and ghosts to be in the same body!"

After thinking over and over, she came up with a certain idea and turned around and entered the branch.

…

"Gong Yuan, Tongguan is trapped in the last mission. Can you help me go to the museum and bring him back?"

"Huh? I'm sorry, Miss Chang. I'm sorry about Brother Tong, but my mother was suddenly hospitalized and I really can't go."

"Shan Jiamu, Tongguan is trapped in the museum, can you help me..."

"I'm sorry, I'm suddenly in a hurry..."

Chang Nian put his backpack at his feet and stood at the door of the hall to call every clerk who had ever been favored by Tongguan and ask for help.

The mission is over, there will be no more ghosts in the World Heritage Museum, let alone any crisis.

However, even so, everyone has something that they cannot escape from in this late night.

Even the solution is like this, without exception.

Chang Nian's hair was blowing in the wind, and the coldness by the river made her hand holding the phone tremble.

She looked at the brightly lit seventh branch in front of her, gave up asking for help, and picked up the backpack at her feet, with contempt in her eyes.

"This is your sincerity, your kindness..."

Chang Nian sneered, then faced the river wind and walked into the darkness alone to find her husband.
