Chapter 530 Love
"Congratulations to Tianhai Hotel, Yu Guo, a staff member of the seventh branch, has successfully returned.
I wish you a happy life."
The will of the seventh branch, the female voice congratulated Yu Guo for returning alive to the branch again.
In this mechanical reciprocation, I heard countless congratulations.
An illusory shadow slowly emerged in the air, and then gradually became clearer and clearer until it disappeared completely.
The root ghost was cracked by Yu Guo, so it would naturally be "guided" to the seventh branch.
However, since there was no competition in this mission, although there was no ghost in the ninth branch, it still added a mission record.
The people in the seventh branch did not know that this mission would be completed ahead of schedule, and they walked out one by one after hearing the female voice's announcement.
When these people came to the hall, they only saw a corpse and the desolate back kneeling in front of the corpse.
Zhan Xun's body was eroded by the cartilage, and when he returned to the branch, only a skeleton was left.
Under the influence of Tianhai Hotel, his last remaining traces were also erased.
Zhan Xun disappeared from this world, not even his whole body was left.
Yu Guo turned his back to everyone and knelt in front of the open space, as if to confess.
The palm-sized piece of cartilage left on the ground was preserved and quietly placed in front of him.
Sin object: cartilage;
Effect 1: It can parasitize inside the human body and automatically activate when attacked by ghosts, making a single attack invalid.
Effect 2: If it parasitizes in the body of a dead person, it can turn the dead person into a ghost, and the ghost will attack the living first.
Price: Permanent price, the more times it is used, the deeper the cartilage will fuse with the bones of the holder, until it cannot be removed.
"Old Yu, you are very quick, is everything going well?"
Hong Fu, holding two cups of milk tea in his hands, saw Yu Guo kneeling alone on the ground, and walked up to him in an excited tone to ask.
On the other side, some newcomers who had no execution experience also came over and asked if Yu Guo was okay.
Yu Guo has always been popular in the branch, so there are indeed many people who care about him.
But now his emotions fluctuated greatly. He ignored the people around him and stared at the cartilage with hatred.
But after countless struggles, he still pressed his hand on the cartilage.
After putting away the sin, the pain on his face became more and more, and he suddenly slapped himself.
This scene scared everyone and they all stepped back half a step.
Hongfu was holding milk tea. He saw that Yu Guo seemed to have a big problem with his mentality, but he didn't dare to disturb him.
Yu Guo puffed up his red and swollen right face and walked past everyone silently without saying a word.
...
The guest rooms on the third floor are all prepared for the staff. Most of the staff will choose to live here for a long time.
After all, entering the hotel is equivalent to drawing a clear line with their past lives.
Those who have families will basically not disturb them again, but occasionally look at their relatives from a distance.
Zhanxun's room is in the middle of the third floor.
Yu Guo stood in front of the door. He was not qualified to enter the room. Only the manager could enter other people's rooms at will.
On the ground in front of Zhanxun's door, two pieces of red rope lay quietly.
This red rope has always been tied to the door handle of his room.
Zhanxun said that this was the hair rope used to tie his daughter's hair when her hair first grew out.
But now he is dead, and even this rope has been broken.
Yu Guo looked at it, and there was a sense of confusion in his eyes.
In fact, he never understood why Zhanxun, who cared about his wife and daughter, died for him at the last moment.
The dead have their own secrets.
The living have their own things to do.
After standing in front of the door for a while, Yu Guo realized what he should do.
…
In a restaurant in the city center, diners whispered to each other, and the slow and elegant music made people feel comfortable.
The people here are very polite, and everyone has a happy smile on their face.
The man at the next table wore a pair of frameless glasses, was well-dressed, and had a gentle manner.
His hand and the woman's hand opposite were holding each other at the table, saying some secret love words.
A little girl of three or four years old sat next to the woman, eating a fruit salad with tableware in an unskilled manner.
"Tingting, now we can finally be together openly, without any ties.
Believe me, I will be good to you and Xiaoci, let me be your relative, okay?"
The man spoke very gently, looking at the woman opposite him with affection.
A melodious violin sounded, and the waiter of the restaurant pushed the dining cart.
A diamond ring was placed on the plate while the woman was crying in surprise.
In full view of the crowd, the man got up from his seat, picked up the ring and knelt on one knee in front of the woman.
"Tingting, will you marry me?"
This scene received the blessings of everyone in the restaurant. Amid the congratulations, the man and woman hugged each other.
The little girl who didn't know anything yet looked at her mother and an uncle, and tilted her head ignorantly, as if full of doubts.
"Xiaoci, let me be your father, okay?"
"Dad?"
Perhaps the little girl understood a little after hearing these two words.
She didn't call the man "Dad", but subconsciously thought of another person.
That person would not bring her to a big meal, would not buy her beautiful and expensive toys, he would only rub his face with his rough hands.
This is a family of three, an enviable family of three.
A gentle man, a beautiful woman, and a lovely daughter.
They received blessings and congratulations from everyone in the restaurant, as if they were supposed to be a family.
And these congratulations, heard by the man at the next table, were like arrows piercing his heart.
All the congratulations and blessings made him feel like a knife in his heart.
Yu Guo did not dare to raise his head, but just ate the pasta on the plate one bite after another, eating it very ugly.
Drops of tears fell on the plate and were swallowed back into his stomach.
He finally understood.
Why was Zhan Xun's eyes full of envy when Yu Guo talked about his relationship with A Lian when he was hiding in Heian'an's house?
Why did Zhan Xun care so much about his wife and daughter, but gave up the hope of living at the last moment?
Why did Zhan Xun say that before he died?
Because he had never been loved in his life.
So he envied Yu Guo for having someone to love him, even though that person had been dead for a long time.
For this, he would rather die himself and leave Yu Guo a chance to see his lover alive.
The couple at the next table went to the front desk to check out hand in hand.
The little girl sat quietly and obediently in her seat, playing with the small gift that came with the set meal.
At this time, Yu Guo slowly walked to her side and gently touched her head.
The little girl raised her head and asked in confusion with her innocent and cute but ignorant eyes:
"Uncle, who are you?"
Yu Guo's heart seemed to be blocked by a stone, and it was difficult to breathe. He was panting heavily and didn't speak.
He took out a cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to the little girl.
The little girl untied it blankly, and inside was a hairband that was broken into two pieces. She asked softly:
"Is this a gift from my uncle?"
"Your father gave it to you."
"My father, is it the father who just left?"
Yu Guo's heart hurt even more. This girl made people feel no pity.
She was very young, so she shouldn't be so forgetful.
"You only have one father, your father's name is Zhanxun, and he named you Zhanci.
He is willing to live for you, and he is willing to die for you.
He really loves you."
But why don't you love him...
