At night, the short-term crisis was over.

The ghosts roaming the post office have not reappeared since the failed attack, which is good news, at least they haven't been keeping an eye on them, otherwise the price would have been paid for more than just one shot.

The three of them sat on the couch in room seven, thinking about each other.

Wang Shan, an ordinary person, didn't dare to participate in this kind of topic, but stayed in the room and didn't make a sound.

"It is very difficult to imprison this ghost, first of all, it is impossible for us to go out after six o'clock in the evening, whether it will trigger the law of turning off the lights and dying, no one can be sure, it is very likely that as soon as we go out with our front feet, we will die outside with our back feet, so we can't gamble. Yang Jian answered Sun Rui's question before.

"Since you can't go out at night, you can only act during the day, because the lights in the post office will be on during the day, and you can take advantage of this rule of the post office to avoid being killed by turning off the lights. ”

"The problem is that ghosts don't appear during the day. ”

Li Yang immediately said: "In this way, only by finding that ghost during the day can you have a chance to detain it, and it is impossible to deal with that ghost at night." ”

"The ghost is not on the first floor, it may be on the second, third, or even fifth floor. Yang Jian said calmly: "It is hidden somewhere in this post office, but I personally speculate that the situation is most likely on the fifth floor of the post office." ”

The old man, codenamed Knocker, fell from a five-story building and fell to his death.

Here's a clue.

The secret is on the fifth floor of the post office.

The ghosts may also wander down from the fifth floor, but they are more unlucky on the first floor, or they may be outsiders to the post office, so they are targeted by the ghosts.

Sun Rui groaned: "Indeed, if you want to imprison this ghost, you have to find the location of this ghost during the day, but the post office is very large, there are thirty-five rooms, and each floor is separated from each other, and going up and down the stairs is not something that can be done casually, and it is extremely difficult to detain it." ”

"At night, we are very disadvantaged, which is equivalent to a way of killing people who resist ghosts, and we will suffer too much, and if we don't get it right, we will be wiped out. ”

"Going upstairs is key. Yang Jian said: "You don't need to pay attention to the ghost's words for the time being, it can't deal with the three of us." ”

"But we need to deliver a letter upstairs, and the third letter is not enough at all, only two letters in the hands of Wang Shan and Wanxing in another room, which means that we have to be forced to separate after we reach the second floor. Sun Rui said again.

Yang Jian turned to look at the room: "Wang Shan, is there no other way to go upstairs except this method?"

Wang Shan in the room hurriedly replied: "Maybe there is, but I only know that the method of snatching the letter is more reasonable and faster, and the messenger upstairs should know more than me, and they may have a better way." ”

The task of delivering a letter may seem simple, but it is actually full of strange changes.

Everything needs the Messenger to dig for itself.

Some of the lessons learned have been passed down by word of mouth, while others have yet to be discovered.

"The messengers on the first floor send too few letters, and they are all newcomers with extremely high mortality rates, and the information they get is indeed limited, even if there is some information, they will soon be taken upstairs, and it is impossible to stay, so the longer the old messenger lives, the more he knows, and if he wants to understand clearly and take a shortcut, he can only go upstairs. ”

Yang Jian shook his head slightly.

I felt like I couldn't waste time on the first floor, at least I had to go to the second floor.

After all, the second floor is full of people who have successfully delivered letters at least three times, and they are already out of the category of novices.

"That's it for today, let's talk about it tomorrow, let's not sleep at night, who knows if the ghosts roaming the post office will appear again." Yang Jian then said.

"Also, the post office is safer during the day, but at night it is too dangerous to do anything, so you can only stay in your room. Sun Rui sighed and said.

It's dark outside, and there are ghosts walking around, who dares to go out.

For the next period of time, all three of them stayed in Room Seven, and everyone did not dare to rest, and they needed to pay attention to the movement outside the door.

No one can be sure that the oni who had just failed to attack and left would carry out a second attack.

However, in his spare time, Yang Jian also took the time to explore this room to see if he could find any clues and strange places.

"Team Yang, this room is normal, normal is a little incredible, there is nothing strange about it, but this is also the strangest place, because according to the normal situation, the previous messenger will leave a little thing after staying here, and it is impossible not to have the slightest trace over time. ”

Wang Shan didn't sleep either, he watched Yang Jian wandering around the room, and said, "When I came here, I had the same idea as Team Yang, wanting to see if I could find any clues, but it turned out to be a pity. ”

"There were no clues, the room was very clean, not even the slightest trace of man-made remained. ”

"I can't understand this kind of imagination, right?" Yang Jian paused, looked at him and said, "When you say this, I roughly understand the characteristics of this room. ”

"It's a mechanism similar to a reboot, where at a certain time, or when the person staying in the room dies, the room reverts to a certain point in time, and all traces left by others are erased, so whatever the previous person left here, the room can't be saved. ”

"I see. Wang Shan groaned, feeling that this statement was very correct.

Yang Jian said again: "It seems that I don't need to waste time, wait for dawn with peace of mind, when will your third letter come out?"

"Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, it's just these two days, and it's because the letter is coming soon, that I'll come to this post office early, but it is said that the messenger upstairs can come back to the post office whenever and wherever he wants, unlike us who were forced to appear here. Wang Shan said.

"Well, I hope to see your letter tomorrow. ”

After saying that, he didn't continue to investigate, and simply sat on the sofa in the living room and closed his eyes and rested.

Li Yang was very bold, he sat directly behind the wooden door, guarding against the appearance of ghosts at any time.

Sun Rui didn't speak, but he didn't know what he was recording with a small notebook, maybe it was to establish a file, maybe he was analyzing the whole thing, in short, he was not idle.

Little by little, time passed.

There was no noise in the post office, the living room was dimly lit, and the three of them sat in different places without saying a word.

The nights were long and hard, but they will eventually pass.

Twelve hours passed.

At six o'clock in the morning.

The darkness in the post office dissipated, the light seeped in through the door, and the lights in the room went out very punctually.

As soon as the lights go out.

Everyone in the room was startled, for fear of some unpredictable accident.

But then everyone realized that this was the reason why the lights in the room were automatically turned off at dawn, which was a normal change in the post office and was not dangerous.

"It's time. Yang Jian, who had been sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed, said at this moment.

He didn't sleep, just conserved his strength and caution as much as he could.

Although he can go days without eating, drinking, or sleeping, he should still be careful in his special environment.

"Li Yang, open the door, let's go out and have a look. Sun Rui slowly stood up, and he walked forward with his golden palm.

"Last night I leaned against the door, and I didn't see any danger, so the ghost probably won't appear on the first floor. Li Yang nodded and took the initiative to open the door.

Although it's daytime, the post office is not much different from the night, it's still dim, but the lights are on during the day, so it's not so oppressive and dark.

The crowd walked out.

Nothing has changed, the post office is exactly the same as it was yesterday.

Yang Jian glanced back at the wooden door slightly.

There were a few more subtle marks on the doorknob of the wooden door, which were left by the fingernails and had not disappeared.

There was no doubt that the mark was caused by the ghost last night after quickly retracting his palm.

The ghost has caused some damage to this wooden door.

It's special.

You must know that the door was twisted into that shape last night and was not broken, and everything here exists because of the supernatural, and it is not so easy to destroy.

"Crunch!"

The door opened, and the doors of the two rooms next door opened.

The man with thin cheeks and a name called Wanxing touched his bruised face, and walked out with an ugly face, and when he saw Yang Jian and a few people, he was immediately stunned, and then his eyes dodged in fear.

The woman named Qian Rong at the door of No. 1 was haggard and at a loss, standing at the door, she was isolated and helpless, as if she was desperate.

Because she was originally dating Wanxing, she relied on each other a little bit and helped each other.

But with the appearance of Yang Jian, Wanxing could no longer count on it, and these people were even more dangerous, she didn't even dare to approach, for fear of dying.

"Have you received the letter?" At this moment, Wang Shan finally walked out of the room and asked.

"No, no. Wan Xing didn't want to answer, but Yang Jian's eyes looked at him and he had to respond in a hurry.

Qian Rong also replied: "I don't have either." ”

"Team Yang, things are very strange, it stands to reason that there will be letters this morning, but the three of us have not received a single letter. Wang Shan frowned: "This is different from the previous situation. ”

"Where do the letters appear?" asked Yang Jian.

Wang Shan said: "Generally speaking, there will be three places, on the bedside table in the post office room, there will be letters clipped on the door of the check-in room, and there is also a place...... Counter. ”

"The three places appear in different places and the way of sending letters will be slightly different, the letter on the head of the bed is a personal task, the letter on the door is the task of all the messengers in this room, as for the letter on the counter, I can't judge, but I personally deduce that it should be the task of all the messengers on the first floor. ”

"In the same way, the danger of the three ways of sending the letter will increase accordingly, which is also something that I have summed up by contacting the messenger upstairs. ”

"The counter is over there. ”

Sun Rui's eyes moved, and he looked at an old counter in the hall.

The counter was very old, dusty, and no one had wiped it down for a long time.

But I don't know when, but an unsealed letter was neatly placed on it.

However, the difference is that the color of the envelope of this letter is not the yellow envelope that Yang Jian encountered last time, but a blood-stained red envelope.

It's a red letter.

Yang Jian also saw the slightly special red letter, which was particularly conspicuous on the counter.

"Red letter?" Wang Shan was stunned.

He had never encountered such a situation, and there had been no examples of red letters on the two previous deliveries, and what he had learned from other people.

Although unseen, it is clear that the letter is placed on the counter, indicating that this is a mission for all the messengers on the floor to act together.

And the red envelope obviously reveals an unusual taste.

"It's more difficult to send letters. This idea immediately popped into Wang Shan's mind.

Yang Jian walked over and stared at the red letter in front of him: "There is no word on it, not even an address, how to send it?"

"The address should appear as soon as you pick up the letter, but in a somewhat peculiar way. Wang Shan also hurriedly walked over, he reminded.

Yang Jian reached out to take it, but Sun Rui stopped him: "This may be a curse, it's best not to touch it, I think I'll leave it here alone." ”

"Don't do that, if you don't take the envelope today, all the people on the first floor will probably die at night. ”

Wang Shan immediately reminded: "I have seen a newcomer refuse to deliver the letter, but the next day I saw him die on the bed in the room, and the letter was held in his hand, and the death was hideous and terrifying...... The cost of refusing to deliver a letter is greater than the cost of tearing up the letter, and if you are not sure, you can tear up the envelope. ”

"But I haven't seen this red letter, and I don't know what the price will be after tearing it up, maybe it will directly kill everyone on the first floor, and maybe it will attract even more terrible ghosts. ”

Sun Rui touched his chin: "Sounds very troublesome." ”

"Don't worry, even if it's a curse, I'll take it alone. Yang Jian was not afraid, he directly stretched out his left hand and picked up the red letter.

As soon as the letter was picked up.

A cold breeze hung on the counter, and the case breeze blew away the dust on the counter, and a line of crooked self emerged from the dust, forming a sentence.

It was an address, a strange and strange place.

Deliver the letter to the owner of No. 78 Fushouyuan.

Duration: seven days.

Obviously, this is the task of the messenger.

But this mission is not named, there is no price for failure, and of course there is no reward.

It's just a simple mission.

But Wang Shan, Wanxing and that Qian Rong here all knew that if this letter could not be delivered smoothly, they would definitely die.

The price is so simple that it doesn't even need to be explained.

As for the rewards....... Because I have no experience, no one knows.
