I'm the mayor of a simulated ghost city

[Beep, congratulations to the mayor sister for completing the restoration tasks of story one and story two. The Guangming Power Plant task is 80% complete. ]

Both restoration tasks have been completed, plus the other two stories before, it’s still not 100% complete?

"It seems that I underestimated the difficulty of the three-star mission."

I originally thought that the star rating of the mission difficulty depended on the number of evil spirits present, but now it seems that it is not the case. It may have a lot to do with the story of the mission itself and the connections behind it.

Lu Yao thought about it and said to the system: "Hey, system, have you made a mistake again? There are two red-clothed people in this task, how can it be counted as three stars?" If this is the case, there may be more than one red-clothed person in the inpatient department of the Third People's Hospital.

Fortunately, the system was sober this time: [No mistake, the mountain god is not within the scope of the mission, you bumped into him yourself.]

This makes sense. The throne was not a story released by the system. It was purely a coincidence that Lu Yao smashed the chair.

In this case, the system does not cover all ghosts, no wonder there are variables.

"Cough cough..." The red fog that had just spread over had covered the entire village, and Lu Yao was choked and coughed a few times.

The fog was not scarlet, but rather had a faint pink tint. There was no other smell in the air, as if it was just normal fog.

But Lu Yao did not let his guard down. From the moment the fog appeared tonight, things went wrong.

Now even red fog has appeared.

"There is only 20 percent left. It looks like the next part will be the most difficult."

As he spoke, Lu Yao walked back to the main road in the village. The ghost lights on the road had long since dissipated.

Although there was thick fog, Lu Yao could still see through the fog that the village looked different from when she came.

When she arrived, Bifeng Village had already been abandoned, with collapsed walls, empty houses, and yellow earth all over the place. It didn't look like a place where people lived at all.

But at this time the village seemed to have been renovated. Although the doors of every household were closed, there were green trees and a fresh breath, as if there were still people living inside, but they were fast asleep at night.

"This situation is more terrifying than if there were no ghosts at all." If there were ghosts, she would feel like there was something talking next to her, but if there was nothing, she would feel creepy.

Lu Yao walked from house to house, hesitating whether to knock on the door.

Just then, she saw a house with its door ajar and the lights seemed to be on.

"There's a ghost!" Lu Yao was excited and rushed to the man's house.

Arriving at the door, Lu Yao knocked politely.

However, no one answered from inside the house.

Helplessly, Lu Yao opened the door and said politely, "I'm coming in?"

After entering the door, Lu Yao saw a vegetable garden next to the door, with peppers hanging in front of the door and corn drying on the ground. The most peculiar thing was that there were several potted plants of green onions and mint under the window.

In that era, there was plenty of land in the village and no one knew how to grow potted plants. Potted plants were just what the older generation in the city liked to do, growing onions on their balconies.

“This family is quite good at living.”

Lu Yao continued walking forward and saw a green lamp hanging on the door, glowing faintly. It seemed that it was this lamp that attracted her.

The door was locked from the outside, and Lu Yao pried the lock open with ease...

When I pushed open the door, I could smell the atmosphere of life inside, and it turned out to be a little girl's home. Although it was full of simple characteristics, the little girl's bedroom had a very girly flavor.

Just to the left of the bedroom as you enter the room, there is a row of beaded door curtains with colorful patterns painted on them. The threads that string the beaded curtains are not of the same kind, some are thick and some are thin.

"Look, they really know how to live. The curtains are all handmade. They are not factory products on the market." Lu Yao pulled open the curtains.

Directly opposite is a single bed with large peonies embroidered on it, giving it a very vintage feel. There is also a small wrought iron lamp at the head of the bed, and on the pillow are a doll bear and an old Siemens mobile phone.

"Wow, it's Siemens, it's an antique."

Lu Yao picked up the Siemens mobile phone on the bed and looked at it again and again. The phone was not turned on and Lu Yao couldn't open it. After thinking about it, he felt that such a retro thing must be a very important item, otherwise it would not be placed so prominently on the bed.

Then, Lu Yao looked at the bedside table beside the bed, and saw a photo frame with a photo on it...

"Scared!" Lu Yao suddenly drew back his legs. This person turned out to be Fan Shichang! This was Fan Shichang's home!

"By the way, I heard from Lu Ming before that Fan Shichang is from the village. It turns out that Fan Shichang is from Bifeng Village." Thinking of this, Lu Yao looked around again. The ground was clean, as if Fan Shichang had always lived here.

Suddenly, Lu Yao saw the calendar on the wall. The time shown on it was more than 20 years ago.

Taking out her mobile phone again, Lu Yao compared the time on her phone. The live broadcast room had been interrupted long ago, and the screen of her pro16 Apple went black at some point and was completely unusable.

"Oh my god, did I really travel through time?"

Looking at the calendar on the wall, Lu Yao couldn't help but ponder: "If I really traveled through time, would Fan Shichang still be alive at this time? Does this count as trespassing? Have I come to the world where he is?"

Recalling the task prompt, Lu Yao seemed to understand. So, if he wanted to unlock Lu Ming, he needed to find a non-existent person within this time period.

But she was unfamiliar with the place, how could she find it alone?

Thinking of this, Lu Yao looked at his own shadow and asked, "Sister Lan, are you still there?"

The shadow moved slightly in response.

Seeing that Qin Yunlan was still there, Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if she had really traveled through time, she would still be panicked, so she probably didn't completely travel through time, but just entered a strange space.

Just as she was thinking of this, the mirror behind Lu Yao reflected her appearance.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Lu Yao was stunned. She stretched out her hand and shook the mirror, and the self in the mirror also stretched out her hand and shook it. Lu Yao took a step back, and the self in the mirror also took a step back.

"I...how did I become like this?!"

The person in the mirror is not Lu Yao, but is exactly the same as the person in the photo...

"I have become Fan Shichang!!!"

No wonder she said she felt weird today. Her long legs felt sore after running a few steps. She usually runs 6 meters in 100 seconds, but today it took her 16 seconds. It turns out her legs have become shorter!

There was also a strange mosaic in the live broadcast room that prevented her from seeing herself. It turned out that when she left, she became a different person!

So where did she go?

Lu Yao was completely panicked at this point. Even though she had traveled through time, she was not so frightened. But the fact that she had changed her appearance was really scary. She thought about what would happen if her "corpse" was found and her soul was not in her body but her skull was opened?

At this moment, Lu Yao moved her ears. Fortunately, although her body did not seem to be her own, her hearing, smell and vision functions were not lost.

Along with the footsteps, a woman's voice appeared outside the door, shouting at her: "Fan Shichang, come quickly, there is an accident in the factory!"
