"Side quest?"

While playing, Lu Ban thought about this thing that suddenly appeared.

Since it is a side quest, it means that Lu Ban can complete it at any time, but the task description is "in the silent land." The silent land is obviously not the world where Lu Ban is now. In other words, the silent land should be an alien space affected by the system or some great existence, just like the Jiangcheng Grand Theater at night before.

In other words, Lu Ban needs to find these traces during the mission.

So, what can we get if we find these melody fragments?

The mission description was short on details.

Lu Ban just put it aside.

That’s not the focus right now.

When the song ended, tears welled up in Song Yunyan's eyes. She did not wipe them with a handkerchief, but just stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, staring into the distance.

If she had previously suspected whether Lu Ban was a liar who was trying to attract attention and take advantage of the situation, then when she heard the sound of the piano, Song Yunyan knew everything.

Because the first and last time she heard this song was during the fire.

The people who experienced that time have long since died, and the fact that Lu Ban was able to obtain this song is the best proof of that.

Lu Ban looked over her shoulder and saw that at the end of the horizon, he could vaguely see the ruins of Jiangcheng Grand Theater.

No wonder she bought the land and didn't develop it, and chose a place like this for her office.

Over the past twenty years, she has probably gazed into the past like this countless times, but to no avail.

Lu Ban suddenly realized something.

"Mr. Lu, I have a feeling that you and Danping are very similar in some sense. Can I ask you for a favor?"

Song Yunyan didn't look back, just looked at the sparkling Lingjiang River.

"Please go ahead."

"...Can you help Danping get free? He has been bound there for so many years, it's time for him to leave."

She was silent for a moment before she spoke with determination.

"no problem."

Lu Ban answered immediately.

"To be precise, Du Danping's spirit has been freed."

"?"

Song Yunyan couldn't help but turn around.

"Ms. Song, actually my video is not finished. I edited out the following part. The main part is here."

Lu Ban took out his cell phone and immediately played for Song Yunyan the video of him singing "Good Luck" while smashing the dead head of her old lover with a crowbar.

“…Alright.”

Song Yunyan had a complicated expression.

"However, the Du Danping incident has not been completely resolved. If we want to avoid such incidents, we need to demolish the Jiangcheng Grand Theater. It was its architectural style that led to the tragedy."

Lu Ban expressed his thoughts just now.

"Then, it would be best to build some positive energy propaganda and education bases at the site, or use it as a public welfare project. I believe Mr. Du would be very pleased to see these in heaven."

He said this with certainty as he had sent Du Danping's soul up there with his own hands.

"…Good advice."

Song Yunyan was stunned for a moment, then nodded hesitantly.

She stared at the abandoned Jiangcheng Grand Theater again, as if she wanted to engrave it in the deepest part of her memory.

"Mr. Lu, is there anything I can help you with?"

Song Yunyan asked again.

"For someone like you, money is just a thing outside of your body and is useless. But I don't have anything else except money."

“…”

Lu Ban hesitated to speak.

"For a while, I searched for antiques around the world, hoping to find a connection with Danping. Unfortunately, those were all ordinary things, and I'm sure you, Mr. Lu, wouldn't be interested in them."

Song Yunyan thought with a little annoyance.

“…”

Lu Ban hesitated to speak again.

"or……"

She remembered something again, but before she could finish, Lu Ban raised his hand to interrupt her.

"...Actually, I need your help with something, Ms. Song."

"Speaking."

Song Yunyan was confused.

"Ms. Song, you know that I am just a small video producer. My biggest wish is to get my fans to 100,000 as soon as possible. If you can help me fulfill this wish, I will be very satisfied."

Lu Ban said seriously.

"I don't have any ideals. I shoot these videos to fulfill my own dream of making a movie. One hundred thousand fans is just a small step. Of course, it would be best if you could invest in the movies I shoot in the future."

"?"

Song Yunyan was even more confused.

After experiencing strange scenes like the fire and meeting Du Danping's ghost, this young man who may have come into contact with some mysterious beings, his biggest wish is to have his number of fans reach 100,000?

It's like a math problem that you couldn't solve after three hours of hard thinking in the library, but was solved by a cleaning lady passing by. When you asked her about it, she said she just wanted to be a quiet cleaner. What's going on?

And making a movie...is he serious?

You possess such extraordinary powers, but you only want to make movies?

Or will the movies he shoots involve the power of that world?

"sure."

Song Yunyan responded, and she couldn't help but look forward to it.

Although she is in her forties, she often comes into contact with the young people's style. She even opened an account on a video website and sometimes uploads videos of visiting luxury houses.

Now is the era of traffic. As long as there is traffic, it is not a problem to make a person popular, but traffic requires money to buy.

Brushing 100,000 zombie fans is already a very low-level method. Song Yunyan plans to let her secretary use other means to promote Lu Ban’s video so that he can get 100,000 real fans.

"Is there anything else I can help with?"

Song Yunyan didn't know why, but when facing Lu Ban, she didn't feel as confident as she usually did when facing young people. Instead, she felt a little bit in awe.

Perhaps it was because he had truly witnessed those extraordinary things that he looked at Lu Ban differently.

Perhaps Song Yunyan just saw the shadow of Du Danping in Lu Ban and wanted to make up for the regret of that year.

"Well...Ms. Song, you said before that you have collected many antiques, right?"

Lu Ban thought about it and decided to remind the other party.

"Although there may not be anything really worth noting about those antiques, I still advise you not to explore them too much. For some things, the more you know, the more dangerous it will be for you."

Just like the things in the Silent Department Store, Lu Ban suspected that they might be the relics left behind by some people like him. Most of these things were contaminated, and if ordinary people came across them, they might be quickly affected and become mentally ill.

Lu Ban, who had once glimpsed the real world, had a deep understanding of this.

Although he is now out of sanity, Lu Ban does not think of himself as a madman.

"I see."

Song Yunyan nodded, not quite understanding.

"One last thing."

Lu Ban came to the office door and prepared to leave.

Song Yunyan looked over.

"Could you please ask the driver to take me back? It's a bit troublesome to transfer to the subway here."

Lu Ban said seriously.

"……OK."

Song Yunyan couldn't understand this man anymore.
