Humans have Three Souls and Seven Spirits, ghosts have Nine Netherworld Obsessions and Five Aggregates of Fire. But from the time I was born, I was missing an Earth Soul.
From a young age, I ...
Seeing that this guy was in such a state, I quickly put away the lightning sword.
We don't want him to have a fit of madness and start wildly punching us.
"Brother, this guy is so crazy, we should hurry up and leave!"
Yiyi whispered in my ear at that moment.
"No, we're still waiting for Fatty Zhou to come back, and even if we go outside, it might not be safe!"
I spoke to the girl very cautiously.
After all, this person doesn't seem to have any malicious intent.
It's just that things have changed too much.
Soon, the waiter felt much better, refreshed, and his enthusiasm returned.
"Sigh, if you don't believe me, fine. When the vegetables are grown, if you want to come and stay, I'll pick out a couple of potatoes for you."
However, this time it's not going to happen.
Since you're not staying at the hotel, please leave. Don't disrupt our customer flow!
As he spoke, the young man pointed ahead.
I was puzzled for a moment, there was no road here!
We are currently on the second floor, and the direction he is pointing is the largest window!
If we do as he says and go outside, the only option is to jump.
This guy's mental problems seem to have reached a critical stage.
He just said that he knows this is the second floor.
But if we are currently on the second floor, there is a door next to us.
If you want to go out, you have to walk straight out, which means you have to jump off the second floor, right?
"Master, is this guy crazy?!"
Lei Jijian couldn't help but swear.
I couldn't help but laugh at him in my heart, but I only kept it to myself.
I'm afraid this guy might get some kind of shock and start rolling around in bed like he did before.
Just then, I had a strange feeling that the window in the direction of the main entrance, which was the one that guy had just been pointing to, suddenly flickered.
It wasn't the light of an oil lamp, but a warm yellow with a hint of orange-red.
It's like the feeling of the setting sun shining through a window.
I looked over, and these were clearly invisible cracks; there was no door at all.
But long patches of light did indeed appear on the floor...
Yiyi came closer to me, her eyes full of confusion.
"This light is so warm...it doesn't seem like something sinister!"
The girl was right; the scene here truly resembled a real sunset.
At that moment, the young waiter saw it, and Guang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
He straightened his white suit again and then patted the dust off his clothes.
"See? I told you, I'm about to get off work. If you don't have anything else, wait for the next shift!"
You still want to leave work?!
I mentally scoffed.
If you're going out after get off work, why don't you just jump off from the second floor?
Just as I was wondering what was going on, I glanced over and saw that a door had appeared out of nowhere where the window was!
The huge window from before has now transformed into a square door!
I was speechless, unsure of what to say.
"Master, this place is too eerie..."
The lightning sword also drew constant criticism.
"Off work?" Yi Yi frowned.
"If you're going to leave work, what's the deal with this door? Explain yourself before you go!"
At this point, Yiyi was also getting a little anxious.
I can understand that at this moment, the girl is also trying her best to find out what's going on here.
After all, this hotel is really too strange, both in terms of time and space.
In fact, Fatty Zhou never mentioned this matter to us.
If time is so unpredictable here, then wouldn't our "death date," that deadline, the time specified in the contract, also be infinitely variable?
That's what I've always thought, but it's really just a shortcut.
If my plan is wrong, we will likely be placed on a faster timeline, in which case we will die even faster and time will be tighter!
The waiter was already very enthusiastic; he blinked slightly and then smiled quite naturally.
"You mean this? This is natural light, and of course, it's also my shift change signal."
It should get dark here soon, and someone will take my place then. If you want to wait for our boss, it will probably have to be tomorrow.
He went to get something today and hasn't come back yet.
As he spoke, the waiter's body twisted again, returning to the same position as before, with his shoulders and knees.
The shift change signal has arrived. You've been working diligently, but tell me how all this came about.
"Your boss's surname really isn't Zhou?"
Or, could you tell me what he looks like?
I kept talking.
"He's just a very normal guy, not tall or thin, wears glasses... except his glasses often fall off, his face is quite small."
What's wrong? Why are you asking this?
Let me tell you, I wouldn't have told you this if it weren't close to the end of the workday, or I would have gotten yelled at by the boss.
Okay, that's all for now, I'm about to leave work.
At this point, the waiter also looked very wary.
They seemed terrified of the boss showing up.
Given his current situation, I think he'll tell me the truth no matter what I ask.
Looking at the rays of the setting sun streaming in from outside, I was truly puzzled.
It can't be that everything changes as soon as you go up to the second floor.
We first entered the hotel around two or three o'clock.
After the fat man's ordeal, it was probably almost dawn.
But when the old man came in, he told me it was still past midnight!
This is truly the most incredible thing.
But when the old man opened the door, it was clearly morning outside.
Now this guy is telling me he's going home from get off work... including this sunset.
This is too chaotic!
I frowned and glanced at Yiyi beside me; she seemed to be deep in thought as well.
If this waiter answers every question...
It suddenly occurred to me that if I were to ask from the waiter's perspective, what time would it be?
I slowly opened my mouth and said, "Then tell me, why is it your turn to go to work at this hour?"
"It's 7 p.m. now. I've just finished my last night shift, and I'm supposed to get off work at 8 p.m.! Who would have thought I'd run into a bunch of weirdos like you!"
I was completely stunned.
The last bus arrives at 8 o'clock...
After saying this, the waiter even took out his phone to show us.
I looked closely and realized that what he had was not a cell phone at all.
What he's holding is clearly a mobile phone from decades ago!
"Your phone..."
"What's wrong? I spent several months' salary to buy it! It's not like I stole it..."
Pretty cutting-edge, right?
The waiter still looked proud after saying that.
