Lou Fan went office next door from Qin Tan’s team and found a men's waterproof sports watch from a drawer. With a smile on his face, he reached for the watch. The next moment, a middle-aged male ghost appeared, holding a wine bottle in his hand. The ghost’s gaze looked confused and drunk. Looking at Lou Fan, he laughed and burped. Lou Fan frowned, the smell of alcohol stink seemed to be in the air.
"Hey hey, come here. Let's play Morra/fist number game (drinking game)[1]. If you win, I'll let you adjust the clock." The drunkard ghost did not waste time and had a clear goal.
Lou Fan seldom drinks, even if he drinks, he doesn't play Morra so he doesn’t have much experience in it. But it's not that he can't. Counting and shouting ‘fifteen and twenty’ are simple, he understands how it works with a glance.
Lou Fan: "Okay, we’ll play it but I'll take the 1st turn." He just tried it out to see if he could barter about the conditions.
The drunkard said readily, "Okay, I’m fine with anything, you can draw first."
Lou Fan didn't expect the ghost to be so easy. It seems that even though it is a mission world, it still has some humanity in it.
"Fifteen twenty, ten."
Lou Fan stretched out his hand while shouting. He showed a hand with 5 fingers opened, and the drunkard on the other side is showing the same, it’s his win.
"I won, it's your turn."
The drunkard took a sip of wine before saying, "Fifteen twenty, fifteen."
Lou Fan held 2 fists with fingers curled inside, it means no number.
"You lose. It's my turn."
Lou Fan thought about it and said, "Fifteen twenty, five." He swiftly held out a hand. Another win!
The drunkard hiccupped and drank some wine, "Your skill is not bad! Come, this wine is for you." He said and handed the bottle to Lou Fan.
Lou Fan is stunned for a moment because he didn't expect to receive a wine bottle. After picking it up, he found that it is a new unopened bottle. The drunkard took out another bottle of wine from somewhere, opened it, and staggered away while drinking.
Lou Fan set the watch back to the correct time. Then, he put the wine and watch in his backpack, and walked to the next room humming. It turns out that there are props that can be taken away. He wondered how much can it be exchanged after going back. As Lou Fan walked to the next room in a good mood, he thought of something and strolled to the room where Qin Tan and Chen Shuyang entered. There is no one inside as if the two had never been inside. He looked around but there is no clock in plain sight. It seems that in the duel, they can't see each other.
Without further delay, Lou Fan walked into the next room.
…
"Uncle, let's play marbles together."
The little boy stood in front of Qin Tan said that but Qin Tan felt helpless at the moment. He's never played marbles so how to compete? Turning to look at Chen Shuyang, Chen Shuyang is also showing a confused expression.
Qin Tan had to ask the little boy instead, "How do you play marbles?"
The little boy pursed his lips, "Uncle, don't you even know how to play marbles? It's very simple, just shoot the marble into the hole and you’ll win."
Qin Tan nodded, "Okay, let's start."
The little boy squinted and handed Qin Tan a marble. 5 minutes later, Qin Tan watched the little boy's green marble roll slowly into the hole; he lost. The little boy stood up slowly with his head lowered, making a hohoho sound from his mouth. When he raised his face, his expression looked gloomy and terrifying, "You lose, forfeit your life!" Then the ghost rushed towards Qin Tan.
"Shuyang, get out of the way." Qin Tan shouted at the back and dodged the little boy sideways. He took advantage of the turn and swung out with the sword in his hand.
A big wound appeared on the side of the little boy's waist. He screamed and rushed towards Qin Tan without hesitation. Taking advantage of his shortness, the ghost wanted to attack from below. But how could Qin Tan let him succeed? Using the Tang sword to block the ghost, Qin Tan turned around and slashed the little boy from behind. The little boy split in half and dissipated in the air.
Chen Shuyang, who was hiding behind, held a short sword in his hand in a defensive posture. He looked at Qin Tan who is adjusting the clock and said, "Brother Qin, I have an idea. Why don't we just kill the ghost directly and adjust the time? Anyway, if you lose, you still have to fight, so why waste your time playing games?"
This is a really good question and Qin Tan got taken aback for a moment. Then he nodded after a moment of silence, "You're right."
…
Wen Lang and Jiang Dong once again met a ghost who started fighting directly without giving them any chance to play games. Fortunately, after 2 fights, the two cooperated tacitly and quickly finished the ghost. Wen Lang took out the arrow in his backpack. His eyes looked melancholic, and he sighed, "It seems that Brother Lou’s blessing doesn't work either."
With Chen Shuyang's suggestion, Qin Tan's progress is much faster. At 9.00 am, everyone met in the hall. Except for Lou Fan, the rest looked like they just fought in a fight. Only he still looked casual and had spoils in his hand.
A bottle of wine and a handkerchief.
"Looking at your appearance, it probably didn’t go well. By the way, I’ll tell you this. If you win your game, remember to ask for the loot." Lou Fan waved the things in his hand with a look of joy.
There are a total of 16 offices on the 1st floor, 11 of which have been cleared at this time, and 5 are still to be cleared. The sun shone in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the coldness of the whole building is dispelled, making people feel warm all over. An hour later, no one came to work. Other than them, there is Tong Fei’s team who are on the 6th floor of this building. Besides, there may be various ghosts in each office. The team of 5 members slumped on the sofa in the hall and breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Lang felt that he couldn't lift his hands anymore, "Is this mission world using wheel tactic (taking turns) against us? It's designed to consume our physical strength, right?"
Lou Fan poured out the contents of the bag and replied, "No, it's an intellectual battle for me."
Wen Lang rolled his eyes, unable to complain.
Jiang Dong handed Wen Lang a bottle of water, "Wen Lang, how's the injury on your arm? I'll give you medicine."
Wen Lang glanced at his arm, "It's alright, just a minor injury. I'll look at it when I have enough rest."
Jiang Dong put down the food in his hand and took out the medicine from his bag. Next, he sat beside Wen Lang. He moved very swiftly and his skills are good. The antiseptic is applied and bandages are wrapped in one go. Before Wen Lang could resist, Jiang Dong had already wrapped it up.
"It’s done, I don't want to owe you favor." Jiang Dong packed up the medicine, sat back, and started eating. Wen Lang got the wound from helping him block an attack. The ghost was so powerful that Wen Lang got scratched before he could dodge it. The wound is big and looked scary.
Wen Lang tsk-ed but didn't say anything, drinking his water silently.
Lou Fan and Qin Tan looked at each other, and Lou Fan's eyes are full of smiles. It seemed that after some time of cooperation, the two had developed a revolutionary friendship.
The hall is spacious and there are sofas to lie down. After arranging the person on watch duty, everyone starts to get some sleep.
In the middle of the afternoon, Lou Fan woke up. He went to the bathroom to wash up and started to eat lunch. By the time everyone woke up, it is almost 5.00 pm. Everyone packed up to eat and prepared to continue the mission.
5 offices remained on the first floor, which is settled in 2 hours. Lou Fan still got a battle spoil, while the other 2 groups violently resolved their duels.
"AHH! HELP!"
The team is about to set foot on the 2nd floor got attracted by a scream and they walked to the entrance of the prefecture office. A few familiar figures are wandering in the open space in front of the hall. They are the ghosts they defeated in their duels. When the newcomers in the guard room saw these ghosts, they panicked, and some girls began to scream.
Lou Fan looked at the ghosts and couldn't help but say, "Could it be we caused them to be let out? Then do we have to pass through them after completing the mission?" He looked back at the rest of the team and asked, "Say, will they take the initiative to attack us?"
Qin Tan and Chen Shuyang simply looked at Lou Fan kindly. Jiang Dong looked calm, and only Wen Lang mercilessly discredited his expectations.
"Brother Lou, you can try it. For us, we started fighting as soon as we enter the duel. Maybe with your lucky physique, the ghosts won't attack you."
Lou Fan, relying on being taller than Wen Lang, dropped a punch on him, "How can you talk to your brother Lou like this? Talk properly, or do you still want your equipment?"
"Brother Lou, I was wrong!" Wen Lang readily acknowledged his mistake, not at all cowardly.
Qin Tan glanced at the newcomers who are tapping the window in the guard room and looked unmoved, "Looks like there is still a tough battle to fight when we go out."
Chen Shuyang optimistically said, "Didn't they say that as long as we have a breath left, we can come back to life after getting on the train? We are not afraid."
Wen Lang rolled his eyes, "You're not afraid but I do. Do you know how painful it is to be scratched by a ghost? As long as we have a breath left? Do you still have the energy to climb into the train?"
Each of these is problems that should not be ignored. But it's too early to think about this now. Lou Fan turned around and walked in, “We’ll take about it after adjusting all the clocks. Let's go."
The newcomers in the guard room who were still holding on to their expectations become stunned when they saw the team turn around and leave. How come no one came to save them? Didn't they see so many ghosts out there? Do they want them to die? Unbeknownst to everyone, it is safest for them to be in the guard-room next to the entrance at the moment. The moment their time is up, they can get on the train when they go out.
The design of the 2nd floor is somewhat different from that of the 1st floor. Without the hall in the middle, the number of offices has increased, lining next to each other. Qin Tan turned around and counted the offices; there were 24 in total. According to this layout, they can finish 1 floor a day, they should have plenty of time.
Still proceeding according to the previous 3 groups, Lou Fan stepped into the 2nd office alone. A red ladies' watch is placed on the desk, very eye-catching. Lou Fan walked over and reached out to touch it. The space became isolated, and a long-haired female ghost appeared. It can be seen that she should have been beautiful before her death, with long straight black hair and a decent professional skirt.
Lou Fan is about to say hello in a friendly way, but the female ghost twisted her head into a weird arc without saying a word. He immediately took 2 steps back on guard, and the bow in his hand is already drawn. The female ghost's mouth is split up to her ears, and bright red blood overflowed from her eyes. She shook her head, and her black hair stretched infinitely toward Lou Fan, just about to touch Lou Fan. Lou Fan turned sideways, pulled up his bow, and shot at the female ghost.
The female ghost's hair swiftly appeared in front of her, blocking Lou Fan's arrow.
"Yo, a tough opponent." Lou Fan scolded secretly.
Lou Fan didn't dare to be careless and kept shooting, but the arrows are all blocked by her hair. Not only that, Lou Fan had to keep dodging the hair that is coming at him. All he can see is hair.
So disgusting!
Although Lou Fan thinks that girls with long hair are good-looking, but looking at these black hair at the moment, he only felt a little disgusting. Shoot! His foot is tangled! Lou Fan lowered his head and saw a strand of black hair wrapped around his ankles, immobilizing him.

Maybe with your lucky physique, the ghosts won't attack you."Lou Fan, relying on being taller than Wen Lang, dropped a punch on him, "How can you talk to your brother Lou like this? Talk properly, or do you still want your equipment?""Brother Lou, I was wrong!" Wen Lang readily acknowledged his mistake, not at all cowardly.Qin Tan glanced at the newcomers who are tapping the window in the guard room and looked unmoved, "Looks like there is still a tough battle to fight when we go out."Chen Shuyang optimistically said, "Didn't they say that as long as we have a breath left, we can come back to life after getting on the train? We are not afraid."Wen Lang rolled his eyes, "You're not afraid but I do. Do you know how painful it is to be scratched by a ghost? As long as we have a breath left? Do you still have the energy to climb into the train?"Each of these is problems that should not be ignored. But it's too early to think about this now. Lou Fan turned around and walked in, We'll take about it after adjusting all the clocks. Let's go."The newcomers in the guard room who were still holding on to their expectations become stunned when they saw the team turn around and leave. How come no one came to save them? Didn't they see so many ghosts out there? Do they want them to die? Unbeknownst to everyone, it is safest for them to be in the guard-room next to the entrance at the moment. The moment their time is up, they can get on the train when they go out.The design of the 2nd floor is somewhat different from that of the 1st floor. Without the hall in the middle, the number of offices has increased, lining next to each other. Qin Tan turned around and counted the offices; there were 24 in total. According to this layout, they can finish 1 floor a day, they should have plenty of time.Still proceeding according to the previous 3 groups, Lou Fan stepped into the 2nd office alone. A red ladies' watch is placed on the desk, very eye-catching. Lou Fan walked over and reached out to touch it. The space became isolated, and a long-haired female ghost appeared. It can be seen that she should have been beautiful before her death, with long straight black hair and a decent professional skirt.Lou Fan is about to say hello in a friendly way, but the female ghost twisted her head into a weird arc without saying a word. He immediately took 2 steps back on guard, and the bow in his hand is already drawn. The female ghost's mouth is split up to her ears, and bright red blood overflowed from her eyes. She shook her head, and her black hair stretched infinitely toward Lou Fan, just about to touch Lou Fan. Lou Fan turned sideways, pulled up his bow, and shot at the female ghost.The female ghost's hair swiftly appeared in front of her, blocking Lou Fan's arrow."Yo, a tough opponent." Lou Fan scolded secretly.Lou Fan didn't dare to be careless and kept shooting, but the arrows are all blocked by her hair. Not only that, Lou Fan had to keep dodging the hair that is coming at him. All he can see is hair.So disgusting!Although Lou Fan thinks that girls with long hair are good-looking, but looking at these black hair at the moment, he only felt a little disgusting. Shoot! His foot is tangled! Lou Fan lowered his head and saw a strand of black hair wrapped around his ankles, immobilizing him.
