“You you you ……”

Fu Wenbo retreated to the corner in fear, the man and cat in front of him were simply too bizarre.

Xiao Lan smiles and looks at him with the same kind and friendly eyes as if he were buying pork in a supermarket. Only after he had given Fu Wenbo a thorough head-to-toe inspection did he regretfully look away.

Photography is poor for three generations, and it really is the truth of the matter.

Fu Wenbo’s gaze inadvertently swept over the television behind Xiao Lan, only to discover, to his dismay, that he was the only one in the shot, not the young man in front of him at all.

At once, the cold half-heart freezes completely on.

” Fu Wenbo .”

The clear, shy voice of a woman coming out of the television arouses the deepest fears in Fu Wenbo’s mind.

“I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Forgive me. ……”

Fu Wenbo pleads for mercy in the direction of the television, but the approaching ghosts make it impossible for him to argue, however innocent he thinks he is, that Gu Mo is being driven to his death by each of them.

Seeing no response from the TV, he turned to Xiao Lan: “Can you talk to her and ask her to forgive me?”

Xiao Lan laughed softly, “It’s her business to forgive you, ask her yourself.”

With that, he raised his hand and pointed to the top of Fu Wenbo’s head.

Fu Wenbo’s scalp tingled as he stiffened and looked up to see long, dark hair falling to his shoulders, long, wet hair, dripping in a blotch that carried the scent of a hot spring on his shoulders.

He tilted his face straight up to meet the face that had once appeared in his dreams night after night, but which had now become his nightmare.

The green and white face was less than five centimetres away from Fu Wenbo’s, and he could breathe in the faint stench of the hot springs on his body.

It was the smell of despair.

Gu Mo, emerging from the wall, stretched out his blue and white cut arms and wrapped them around Fu Wenbo, dragging him towards the wall with a strength beyond human comprehension.

Fu Wenbo struggled violently, his hands braced against the wall and his legs stomped hard against the ground. But it did not add even a hint of life to him, as flesh and blood were pressed hard into the wall, and the hard wall cracked open a gap and swallowed him.

Then, little by little, the walls close up and return to their original flat and clean appearance.

With that, the TV disappeared, the walls disappeared, the hotel disappeared and the surroundings returned to a blanket of white mist.

In a haze, footsteps sounded in the distance.

A young girl comes towards Xiao Lan with a brisk pace. She is wearing an ordinary dress, has black hair, is as pretty as the photograph shows, and is carrying a somewhat old backpack that Xiao Lan took from Du Yuhui at the time.

The young woman smiled at Xiao Lan, a smile that was cheerful and bright, without the shyness and lack of confidence she had seen before.

If you ignore the dense pile of people behind her.

The ‘people’ look numb and stiff, drenched in water and seemingly lifeless, and Xiao Lan also sees Tong Qing, Liu Yiyi and Zhao Fan among them, perhaps all of them failed players.

This record, Gu Mo Sister Xiao is also very fierce ……

Xiao Lan was relieved not to find Gu Shengan among them, he must have got through safely.

Gu Mo holds out his hand towards Xiao Lan and hands him an hourglass, the size of a palm, filled with golden grains of sand.

【Name: Reverse Chronicle (Rare Prop, Bound)

[Ability: Back in time once in 24 hours (3/3 times use)]

[Description: Acts on people or objects, you can specify the range yourself]

Xiao Lan reached for it and put it in his prop backpack.

“Ding dong–”

“Congratulations to player Xiao Lan for clearing the game “Six Paths to the Spa”.”

A thick darkness came over the room, blotting out everything in front of it, whether it was Gu Mo or the crowd behind it fading away.

Xiao Lan is quietly waiting to return to that dark world.

The white fog that filled the world of the Sixth Path Spa suddenly and powerfully burst into the darkness that was about to close in, and Xiao Lan reappeared in a world of white fog as black and white intersected several times.

“Tic–”

“The situation is unusual.”

“Tic–”

“Return failed.”

Xiao Lan is confused by this sudden turn of events. He saw himself once again surrounded by a white mist, with a smiling Gu Mo in front of him and a crowd of people behind her.

This is a bit of a bad situation ……

Gu Mo smiled brightly at him, “You’re a good man, stay with us.”

Xiao Lan takes a step back: “……”

If I had known that I would be left behind for helping Gu Mo, Xiao Lan would have beaten the living daylights out of her nosy self.

Gu Mo continued with a smile, “This is our world, no more of those annoying things will exist.”

With that she waved her hand and the numbed crowd nodded in unison, moving in unison as if they were puppets being manipulated.

Gu Mo waved his hand again and the crowd silently parted to reveal the five Fu Wenbo men who had died at Gu Mo’s hands earlier.

They were still in their dead forms, looking hideous and twisted. But their eyes were alive, and they looked in horror at the figures surrounding them, their eyes finally overflowing with regret and fear, their broken and deformed lips opening and closing as they confessed moment by moment what they had done.

“They always said they were right when they were alive, and they didn’t know how to repent even when they were dying.” Gu Mo smiled and pointed at them, “But you see, they all know they were wrong now.”

“Stay, everything here can be as you want it to be.”

“Aren’t you tired of those stupid and vicious fellows? But they fill the world out there.”

“Here, this is the cleanest place in the world.”

Xiao Lan gave an awkward but polite smile, “Still no, I …… have other things I want to do.”

At his refusal, the smile on Gu Mo’s face faded and his dark eyes fixed on Xiao Lan.

When she was a ghost, her face was hidden by her hair, and then Gu Mo had a smile on her face when she passed the level, so much so that Xiao Lan didn’t realise until now that when the girl wasn’t smiling, her eyes looked cold and stern.

“No?” Gu Mo’s voice also went cold.

Xiao Lan suddenly starts to miss Zhang Dong, the boss of the first game, who is rustic, stingy and has little style, but he chooses his employees based on mutual consent. A melon twisted by force is not sweet, Gu Mo Sister Xiao! You already have so many Brother Xiao’s under you, it’s no use adding another one!

Gu Mo approaches Xiao Lan: “Here, what’s wrong?”

As she walked, her appearance changed, her rosy face gradually turning blue, her silky hair beginning to tangle and her slender, slim body gradually beginning to twist like a doll with misfitted parts.

“You… don’t… try… to… leave… ”

This is a direct physical effort to convince Xiao Lan to join her side.

Gu Mo was completely transformed into the form of a harsh ghost as she lunged towards Xiao Lan.

From the white mist, which had seemed peaceful, stiff ghostly figures emerged, heading in the direction of Xiao Lan. They looked wooden and moved stiffly, making a rustling sound on the ground.

Xiao Lan’s legs were in a frenzy as he saw what was happening.

Xiao Lan’s speed was more than just a little faster than Chen Lang’s. He ran with a streak of shadow, followed by Luo, who left Gu Mo behind in an instant.

Unfortunately, there is no way of knowing where to go in this white fog, and normal wayfinding techniques are completely useless in such a world, so Xiao Lan has to rely on his luck and intuition.

The sound of chaotic footsteps can still be heard faintly in the background, far and near. This means that Gu Mo and the ghosts she leads are still not giving up, and they are approaching in the direction of Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan can escape for a while, but for how long in a world completely controlled by the boss? A man is always tired, but a ghost is not. Gu Mo will find him sooner or later.

Suddenly the white mist ahead of us thinned and the spa hotel reappeared.

But something was different, this time the hotel appeared brand new, no signs of having been used, everything looked neat and tidy, not even a scratch on the door, like a decoration or a model. There were no lights inside either, and there was no hint of popularity at all.

But what is certain is that this one looks different from every scene Gu Mo has controlled before, so perhaps this is a completely different place from the previous ones.

The sound of footsteps still continues to come from the fog, and Gu Mo is getting closer with the ghost swarm.

Xiao Lan gritted his teeth and stepped into this completely different hotel, now taking a gamble on whether it was under Gu Mo’s control or not.

The hot spring hotel is very quiet, as if the hustle and bustle outside had nothing to do with it. Xiao Lan found a room with a window in a secluded location and closed the curtains to rest for a while.

After a while.

The rustling of feet began to sound outside, as if a silent celebration was being held.

With the curtains in place, Xiao Lan looks out quietly.

Almost all the men who had been following Gu Mo were now out in force, huddled in a pile outside the hotel, and a quick glance below revealed a dense mass of heads that made one’s skin crawl.

There is no need to guess who they are looking for.

Although it looked as if they would not be able to enter the hotel, it was feared that with this sea of people alone, the whole hotel would soon be surrounded and Xiao Lan would not be able to escape at all.

Gently putting the curtains back, Xiao Lan sighs.

” Sister Xiao is also too fierce ……”

Looking out of the window at the night sky, Xiao Lan is a little sad that the move to send him out of the copy by the Advent World has been completely cut short by Gu Mo, and he doesn’t know if there will be another chance to leave.

What if they become a missing person?

“Ta-da…”

“Ta-da…”

“Ta-da…”

Suddenly footsteps sounded on the wooden staircase and Xiao Lan turned his head to stare at the door.

Who was the person who went upstairs?
