Aoba Office

"Brother Qi!"

The thin man's shout brought me back to my senses.

I found myself in a cold sweat.

"What's wrong with you? Are you really okay?" the thin man asked worriedly.

"Brother Qi, what did you think of? What happened to the horror movie?" Fatty asked.

"Horror movie?" I asked blankly, and then I remembered that we had talked about horror movies before.

The protagonist of a scary nursery rhyme becomes a ghost king, so the protagonist of a horror movie may also become a ghost king.

This inference has been overturned by the illusion I just saw.

Uncle Ghost is a real person who existed in history and became a ghost after his death. Regardless of whether he was a ghost that existed before history changed, or a character who was inserted into history after the change, his existence has become an established fact that cannot be changed.

The original protagonist of the horror film may only become a spirit depending on the author's imagination.

I shuddered.

That nursery rhyme may not be based on real events.

If there is a force that can make the ghosts in the work appear in reality and turn the story of the work into a real event that happened in history, then those ghosts may exist.

I subconsciously said: "Go to the office!"

We have to find Ye Qing!

He must know something!

I have an intuition that the illusion I saw was probably what Ye Qing instilled in me!

Otherwise, how could I suddenly have new abilities?

No matter how "genius" you are, it's impossible for you to have such a "talent", right?

When it comes to "talent", Ye Qing, who has been a villain for hundreds of years, is the "genius" recognized by God, right?

God is gone...

I remembered this.

Do the so-called abilities... talents... past reincarnations... still exist in the ever-changing history?

My head hurts again.

"Don't be impatient." The thin man consoled him, "Otherwise, why don't you go back tomorrow? Why don't you go back and rest today?"

I shook my head vigorously.

The inner uneasiness drove me to find out the truth of the matter.

I recalled my sister’s worried face.

This cannot go on.

Something is not right anymore.

The thin man and the fat man looked at each other, and both sighed helplessly.

"Okay." The fat man started the car.

The car arrived at an intersection and turned left.

I was stunned, a little angry, but unable to lose my temper, "I'm serious. Go to the office now."

The fat man was obviously driving in the wrong direction.

"We passed two green lights just now, so we can only go around in one circle." The fat man said with a grimace.

"There's nothing we can do about it," the thin man said immediately.

I stared at the two people blankly, and the uneasiness in my heart turned into a kind of chill.

Just like when I faced the ghost uncle who suddenly appeared in my dream before, I felt a chill.

ghost?

Yin energy?

I looked out the car window and saw nothing.

That feeling strangled my neck and made me breathless.

"What...green light? Turn left?" I asked with difficulty.

"You can only turn left after two green lights." The thin man looked at me in surprise, "Brother Qi, have you forgotten that we passed two green lights before?"

"Why can't you turn left after two green lights?" I asked again, my body shaking slightly.

"It's that ghost... hasn't it been caught all this time?" The thin man showed a confused expression, "I prepared you to rest before and give it a try. No one has been found on Nangong Yao's side. After the two green lights, turn right and go straight. It’s too difficult to search for such conditions. Minqing’s car accidents are all listed, and it takes too long to confirm the driving route and traffic lights of each deceased person.”

Fatty said: "I don't think it will take that long. He just uses a program to search, input conditions, and edit the program. He must be too lazy to do this, right? It's intentional."

"Do you know programming?"

"Didn't he come up with more stringent conditions? Just recently...don't you think Nangong Yao is absent-minded?"

"Maybe because of his brother's matter."

The discussion between the two people quickly changed the subject.

I have stopped shaking, my hands are clenched, and my heart is like falling into an ice cellar. My whole body was cold and I was frozen in my seat, unable to move at all.

"When, when did you confirm that he... confirmed this... rule?" I squeezed out this sentence through my teeth.

The thin man turned his head and looked at me in surprise, "How long have you been in the dream?"

"A long...long time..." I said weakly.

"Uh..." The thin man looked at me, "More than two months ago, October or September... wasn't there a sudden surge in the number of car accidents? It took a lot of effort to summarize the rules. By the way, the news should have records."

My temperature seemed to have dropped a few degrees again.

The thin man checked his phone and immediately shouted: "Found it. On September 27th."

He showed me the screen of his mobile phone. It was an official announcement issued by Minqing, which stipulated that all driving people must turn left after passing two green lights, and were prohibited from going forward, turning right or making a U-turn. The news links below also include news reproduced by newspapers and websites.

A new pop-up window popped up on the thin man's phone. The news released this time is for the three inland provinces. The three provinces will enter water control, tap water will be closed, and only bottled water can be used.

The thin man took back his cell phone and read out the news, "Yes. The authorities have decided to cut off the water supply."

"It's quite fast." Fatty commented.

"Yeah. That ghost should be easy to deal with. As long as he catches it, it will be easy to deal with. Right, Brother Qi?" The thin man looked at me, "You can't become a powerful ghost king."

I didn't answer.

I am calm now, but there is a sense of despair in my heart.

History has changed again.

The thin man and the fat man calmly discussed the rules set by a ghost king. Everyone seemed to have accepted the existence of the ghost king and accepted this new temporary rule.

What we people do is just find ways to get rid of those ghost kings...

What you do seems to have not changed, but the environment has changed.

What happened?

I don't know anything about it.

It was just a matter of seeing an illusion. All my previous efforts were meaningless, and the situation had reached its most critical moment.

No, it can't be said to be the most critical.

Just like seven years later, the whole world was divided by the Ghost King, and everyone was killed at the slightest opportunity. The day waiting for the Ghost King to single out the victims has not yet come. Still fighting...it's just...fighting...

I leaned back in my chair and stared blankly ahead.

The car took a detour and arrived at the Sixth Village of Workers and Peasants.

The fat man and the thin man unbuckled their seat belts.

"No, I'll go there by myself." I stopped them.

I got out of the car and walked heavily into the Sixth Village of Workers and Peasants.

I heard the shouts of the thin man and the fat man behind me, but I didn't look back.

I looked at Building 6, which was right in front of me.

Ye Qing... is he still the same Ye Qing as before?

When I thought about this, I suddenly remembered the future Qiu Ziyang showed me.

Is it really my future self who is leading all this?

So, should I give up now and accept that kind of future calmly, which would be better?
