When the night is deep and the world is asleep, the white fog that permeates every corner becomes even more chilling and biting. In the living room, the gears of the ancient pendulum clock are turning, striking out long chimes that echo in the living room.
It's eleven o'clock in the evening.
Qin Nuo dozed off for a bit, got some sleep, and woke up an hour early.
When he got out of bed, he felt a slight pain in his chest. Qin Nuo held his head and shook it hard. After adjusting for a moment, he left the room.
At this point, Li Sha's parents were both sleepy, so Qin Nuo naturally left the courtyard easily.
This was not the first time that Qin Nuo went out late at night. Based on Li Sha's memory, he was familiar with the route and soon arrived at the Nancheng Newspaper Office in his memory.
Nancheng Newspaper is the largest newspaper in the town. Anyone who can get a job there has a guaranteed golden rice bowl in the town.
However, according to my memory, the newspaper seemed to have some financial problems later on and was closed for a while. As for what happened next, it is unknown.
Qin Nuo buttoned up the top button, blew a breath of hot air into his hands, rubbed them, put them in his pockets, and walked into the newspaper office.
"Note: During dungeon missions, various game NPCs will appear. Interact with them frequently and try to fulfill their needs. You might get unexpected rewards."
"There are a lot of unknown game NPCs walking around in the newspaper office, and they have strong intentions. A direct confrontation isn't a wise move. Perhaps there are other solutions, such as psychological ones?"
Listening to the game prompt sound in his mind, Qin Nuo had already walked into the hall. In the dim hall, the light bulb was out as expected.
At the front desk, a middle-aged woman wearing glasses was sitting there with a thick stack of newspapers in front of her. It was unknown which edition it was, and it was covered with dust.
Qin Nuo walked over and greeted the woman with her head down, "Hello."
The other party didn't raise his head, but just asked hoarsely: "What do you want with this amount of points?"
Qin Nuo thought for a moment and said, "Come in and find someone. You go about your business. I'll just take a walk."
The woman with glasses was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, but I'm not responsible for anything that happens."
"It's just a walk around twice, what could happen?" Qin Nuo said with a relaxed smile.
The woman with glasses didn't say anything, but stared down at the stack of newspapers on the table.
Qin Nuo had become accustomed to this kind of weird and taciturn game NPC. He turned around and walked towards the newspaper office on his own.
Nancheng Newspaper has three floors with many offices and a clear division of labor, including collection, editing, publishing, etc. Each studio has its own workload to complete every day.
This is a golden rice bowl, not an iron rice bowl. The competition is fierce. If you want to keep your job, you must work hard to do your job well.
Qin Nuo walked down the stairs. From several studios, he could hear clear sounds of work, including the tapping of typewriters and the turning of paper.
But when Qin Nuo went to open the door, there was no one inside. The desks looked like they had been untouched for a long time and were covered with thick dust.
Qin Nuo looked inside the studio for a moment, then gently closed the door.
"The dungeon mission only allowed me to stay overnight. There was no specific task for me to do. Now it seems that there is no danger. Even if there is danger, I am not afraid. I have Blood Eye Ghost as my bodyguard to protect me."
"It doesn't look difficult. Can I just find a place and sleep until dawn?" Qin Nuo thought secretly.
Qin Nuo thought to himself and called out to the Blood Eye Ghost a few times: "Brother Xue, is there a strong ghost aura in this newspaper office?"
After calling a few times, there was no response.
Looking at his motionless right hand, Qin Nuo's mouth twitched, and then he was speechless: "Could it be that the region has restricted the contracted ghosts again?"
"Sure enough, if I were to stay in the newspaper office for a night, it would never be so peaceful."
When it comes to good news, ghosts can still be used.
This was not the first time that the Blood-Eyed Ghost was restrained, and Qin Nuo was used to it. Walking in the corridor, he turned his head to look at the stairs beside him, and then walked towards the second floor.
But when I turned the corner, I heard hurried footsteps.
Then a figure staggered and ran down.
Qin Nuo dodged sideways, stretched out a foot, and tripped.
The figure tripped and hit the wall, letting out a cry of "ouch".
Qin Nuo looked at him and raised his eyebrows. He knew this man.
"Isn't this the helpful Brother Han from before? I didn't expect to see you here."
Qin Nuo walked over, stretched out his hand and smiled.
Han Xi was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Qin Nuo and said, "You're not... that, that person?"
"Lisa."
"Yes, Li Sha! Why are you here too? Could it be that you were tricked into coming here as well?"
Qin Nuo pulled Han Xi up and put his hands back into his pockets: "I walked in by myself."
"What's the meaning of tricking someone into coming in?"
Han Xi's face turned dark blue, as ugly as if he had eaten a fly. "Don't say it. I was passing by during the day, and a woman dressed... well, quite seductively came up to me and said she had something good to give me. I was dazed and suddenly I fainted."
"When I woke up, I was thrown in here, and I haven't walked out yet."
Qin Nuo had a strange expression on his face and pointed down: "The main entrance is downstairs."
"I've tried it before. It's not a door at all. It's a ghost knocking on the door. There's no way out."
Qin Nuo was a little puzzled: "Players who enter the newspaper office cannot leave. Does that mean the door will only appear after dawn?"
"You were also seduced by a woman dressed alluringly... No, you were tricked into coming here?"
Qin Nuo shook his head: "I came in because of the dungeon mission."
