I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 416: Lao Fang did something big

"Carrying the ghost coffin, I can also borrow some of the ghost coffin's spiritual power. I am a little reluctant to give it up. Perhaps this is also a puzzle that fits me very well?"

After the action, Fang Shiming walked in the corridor again, feeling emotional.

He originally controlled three ghosts, but later because he offended the "store manager", two of the ghosts were taken away and finally fell into Cao Yang's hands.

As for himself, he was just a ghost left.

Later, Jiang Shangbai and He Tianxiong seized power and kicked him out of their circle of friends. If he hadn't met the "store manager" in Dachuan City, he would probably have died by now after the resurrection of the evil spirit.

The uncovered ghost coffin is a punishment for his actions during the blind date incident in Dajing City, but is it also a reward?
Carefully feeling the supernatural power coming from the ghost coffin, Fang Shiming had arrived at Wang Xiaoming's residence and pushed the door open.

There were two nurses inside the door. They wanted to go forward to ask questions, but were knocked unconscious by Fang Shiming and put aside. Then they came to the bedside and looked down at Wang Xiaoming who was lying on the bed.

There was a coffin lid on Wang Xiaoming's back, so he couldn't lie down and could only lie prone. He looked emaciated and didn't look like a living person. Instead, he looked like a sick and dead corpse.

However, none of this affected his vision.

Wang Xiaoming noticed Fang Shiming as soon as he entered the room, but he didn't have the energy to pay attention to him. He just took a look and closed his eyes.

"Wang Xiaoming, your current state is really sad. Have you ever thought that after leaving the circle of friends, you would end up like this?"

Wang Xiaoming's voice was hoarse, but full of energy. "My current state has nothing to do with whether I leave the circle of friends. If Mr. Fang came here just to say this, please go back."

"Of course I'm not that boring. If I were really angry about your betrayal, you wouldn't be alive today."

Fang Shiming shook his head. He was not so narrow-minded. Otherwise, with the ghost scissors in his hand, even if Wang Xiaoming had been hiding in the golden house, he would not have been alive until now.

He raised his hand and knocked on the coffin lid on Wang Xiaoming's back. "I came here for your turtle shell. The manager has already said that we should get rid of this thing."

Wang Xiaoming groaned, as if even Fang Shiming's knocking action had put a lot of pressure on him, "I won't go to the Peace Hotel."

"Are you still insisting on your so-called pure theory? With this damn thing on your back, you are no longer pure. Or are you afraid of death, knowing that without this coffin lid, you will die of cancer, so you can't bear to do it?" Fang Shiming said with a mocking look on his face.

Ignoring Wang Xiaoming's words, Fang Shiming lifted him up and said, "Let's go. Don't make the store manager wait anxiously. And don't think about committing suicide. You don't really think that you can live until now because of their excellent medical skills, right?"

Wang Xiaoming's cancer is very serious.

It was already in the advanced stage when it was discovered, and there was no possibility of cure except using supernatural powers.

Wang Xiaoming refused all treatment plans involving supernatural powers. In this state, his body had completely collapsed. If it weren't for the punishment from the "store manager" and the pressure from the coffin lid on his back, he would have died long ago.

Wang Xiaoming wanted to speak more, but Fang Shiming interrupted him rudely, "It's useless for you to say anything now. I just want to remove the restrictions on my back, so you should come with me. It just so happens that you have been studying the store manager. It would be a good death for you to meet the real store manager before you die."

"Can you take me to see the real store manager?"

Wang Xiaoming's tone was dim, but Fang Shiming felt his face burning. "I want to see if you can still be as calm as you are now when you really face death."

That's right.

Fang Shiming had never seen a real store manager. All he had seen was a "store manager" whose thinking and memory were restricted to that of a normal person.

As soon as Fang Shiming went out, he saw Wei Jing, Li Jun, Ah Hong, and some unfamiliar ghost riders standing in front of him.

Cao Yanhua also stood in front of them. When he saw Wang Xiaoming in Fang Shiming's hand, he shouted sternly, "Fang Shiming, put Professor Wang down immediately!"

"You actually want to keep me here? Are you preparing to go to war with the Peace Hotel and the manager?" Facing three captains and many other responsible persons, Fang Shiming was not afraid.

Li Jun said in a deep voice: "You can't represent the Peace Hotel yet, nor can you represent the manager."

The smile on Fang Shiming's face disappeared, and his cold eyes swept over the few people like a venomous snake, "If you want to do it, hurry up. I want to see if you really dare to mess around here."

This is the headquarters, and there are hundreds of thousands of staff members working in this building that was converted from an air-raid shelter.

If a fight really broke out between people with their strength, few of these thousands of people would be able to survive. What's more, he is an employee of the Peace Hotel and has the spiritual protection of the "store manager". His consciousness is immortal, which is why he is fearless.

"Of course we won't do that, but if we want to keep you, it may not be necessary to do so." Wei Jing said.

"Ok?"

Fang Shiming sensed a sense of uneasiness and immediately took action, wanting to use the ghost realm to leave here, but it was too late.

"Don't waste your energy. This passage is blocked at both ends. It's made of special gold materials. You can't leave. You'd better stay here. I want to see if the store manager will be dissatisfied with your behavior when he comes to redeem you." Cao Yanhua said.

Fang Shiming's face was completely sullen. "So this is what you guys were planning. You also want to destroy my impression among the store managers and make me lose my job. This is simply despicable!"

This place has become a slightly larger coffin. No matter what kind of conflict occurs, it will not affect the outside world, so you can do whatever you want.

However, listening to Fang Shiming's harsh words, Ah Hong muttered softly: "Why do we feel like the bad guys? Moreover, it feels a bit like a workplace palace drama. We are using this method to make him lose his job? It's a pity for him not to write a novel."

"I think so."

Next to Ah Hong, a woman with waist-length hair nodded in agreement. Her name was Huang Ziya.

……

"Lao Fang has been gone for quite some time. Could there have been a fight?"

It was already past ten o'clock in the morning at the Peace Hotel, and the number of customers coming to the hotel had decreased a lot, but Fang Shiming had not returned yet, which made Lin Yuan a little worried.

He Yuelian was wearing a red wedding dress, which made her particularly eye-catching today, but it did not affect her work efficiency.

in contrast.

He Yuelian seemed to be more efficient today. She glanced around the store and saw that there were almost no customers. "Old Fang does have a hot temper, but it's unlikely that we'll get into a fight. Brother Yuan, there aren't many people here now. We'll have to wait until noon before customers come in. I'll go tidy up the paintings in the corridor first."

As a master of ghost painting, she can perceive it very clearly.

There are more than a dozen derivative paintings of ghost paintings in the Peace Hotel. I was busy before and had no time to inquire about them. Now that I am done, I have to go and take a look.

"Okay, go ahead." Lin Yuan waved his hand casually.

He Yuelian walked towards the stairs. The moment she stepped onto the stairs, she noticed the paintings hanging on the walls on both sides of the corridor.

There are eight paintings in total from the first floor to the second floor.

There are also eight paintings from the second floor to the third floor.

The contents of these eight paintings are very consistent. They all depict a modern city whose location is unclear, with countless pink peach petals floating in the sky.

The moment she saw these paintings, He Yuelian felt a sense of closeness.

because……

These are all derivatives of ghost paintings, but what makes her silent is that as the source of ghost paintings, she cannot control these paintings, let alone enter them.

"There seem to be some restrictions. Maybe once I build a branch and completely cover a city, I can change the picture in a painting and make it a passage leading to that city?"

He Yuelian was thoughtful, and suddenly she thought of the directional portal leading to the Caesar Hotel in ZS City at the door, which seemed to have a similar effect.

"If my feeling is correct, does this mean that there are only sixteen cities that I can influence with the spiritual power of the Peace Hotel?"

He Yuelian was just thinking when a figure in the same red color came behind her.

It was not until the crisp sound of high heels came closer that she suddenly woke up. She looked back and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's you. Why was there no sound?"

"It's not that I don't have a voice, it's that you're too focused."

Liu Qingqing looked He Yuelian up and down, and said in an inexplicable tone, "I heard that when you were in Shuangqiao Town, you put on your wedding dress and went on a blind date with Brother Yuan? You really hid it very well. When Zhang Xianguang showed us that photo, you pretended to be very convincing."

"I really didn't know at that time. You should be able to feel that this wedding dress I am wearing is not an ordinary dress. Now I am no longer a normal person." He Yuelian said in a low voice.

Liu Qingqing's eyes were like water, and there seemed to always be a faint smile on her face, but at this moment, this smile became so dangerous, "So, do you want to give up Brother Yuan?"

He Yuelian fell into silence, and this silence at this moment was itself a very clear and definite answer.

The smile on Liu Qingqing's face grew wider and more dangerous. "It's really hard to survive in this era. Xiao He, we are all the same kind of people. We just want to survive. But different levels have different ways of living. I won't give up."

After saying that, Liu Qingqing prepared to leave.

He Yuelian quickly said, "After the team building, I will leave the store and help Brother Yuan open a branch. Then you will have plenty of time to spend with Brother Yuan."

Liu Qingqing paused for a moment and said with emotion, "It's really a good idea."

Leaving behind this sentence, Liu Qingqing left completely, but with a trace of worry in her eyes. Just as He Yuelian had thought before, they were all ordinary people. When they entered the Peace Hotel and met the "store manager", they did have all kinds of feelings, even emotions, but now?
Apart from a piece of human skin, there is nothing in Liu Qingqing's body that represents a living person.

He Yuelian was better off, but her body was completely bound by the red wedding dress, and even her consciousness was eroded by the red veil. Even after removing the red veil, she was still unable to eliminate this erosion.

They are no longer normal people.

Normal love naturally no longer exists for them, and their attitude towards the "store manager" is more to find a better support, to find... a puzzle!
The so-called love, the so-called union, isn't it a means for men and women to find complementary pieces of the puzzle?
"He has the consciousness of a normal person now. If you want to be with him, you need to cater to his preferences. It is not clear what type of women he likes, but it is obvious that it is not the type of you and He Yuelian, so you need to change. What I teach you can make you more elegant. You can learn it well. Maybe he will like that type."

Another woman's voice came into Liu Qingqing's mind.

This voice is very similar to hers, but also very different. Even just listening to it, one can picture an elegant woman from the Republic of China in one's mind.

Liu Qingqing gritted her teeth and said, "If you really want to help me, then get out of my body!"

This voice appeared in her mind after she woke up this morning, and the owner of this voice... Although Liu Qingqing heard it for the first time, she was sure that this was the ghost in her body.

The regret that is placed on the red cheongsam, red high-heeled shoes, and the faceless puppet!

It is also this regret that has taken away the use of my body for the past six months, and caused me to do many things that I am not aware of.

She guessed correctly, the owner of the voice was Zhang Youhong.

Facing Liu Qingqing's anger, Zhang Youhong did not react much. Instead, she smiled and said, "That won't work. It's hard to say whether this body still belongs to you. Except for this layer of skin, everything else is mine. If you calculate it by weight, I should own a higher proportion of this body."

Liu Qingqing gritted her teeth and growled in her mind, "You are the one who eroded my body, and now you shamelessly say that I am not the owner of this body?"

"Don't be so excited. You and I are one. Why should we separate you and me? When you take the last step, we will completely merge into a new individual and will no longer be distinguishable from each other." Zhang Youhong said.

Liu Qingqing: "No, I won't go to the place you mentioned. Even if Brother Yuan has found it, I won't go."

Zhang Youhong: "It's okay. I will take over your body temporarily. When the store manager agrees, I will go over."

Liu Qingqing: "Don't push me!"

Zhang Youhong: "I didn't force you, and you should stop taking Zhang Bohua's Chinese medicine. If it weren't for those Chinese medicines, I wouldn't be able to wake up now and talk to you. As a dead person, I also want to rest and don't want to be so tired."

Zhang Bohua’s Chinese medicine is too nourishing.

It can suppress evil spirits, but will also make them revive more violently. From this perspective, it is completely explainable that it is a tonic for evil spirits.

Liu Qingqing regretted it.

If she had known that this would be the result of taking Chinese medicine, she would never have taken it even if she was beaten to death.

Suddenly, she thought of a possibility, "That old man Zhang Bohua did it on purpose. You two are old acquaintances. Did he deliberately want to revive you?"

"Who knows."

After saying this, Zhang Youhong ignored Liu Qingqing.

Liu Qingqing went downstairs in a daze. After arriving at the lobby, she subconsciously looked at the cashier counter, but found that there was no one there. She was stunned and asked, "Where is Brother Yuan?"

"I just received a call saying that Fang Shiming beat someone up at the headquarters, and now the headquarters has detained him, and asked the boss to pick him up." Tong Qian walked out from the kitchen, looking worried.

Liu Qingqing: “Huh?”

Lin Yuan was in the same mood as Liu Qingqing at this time. He had no intention of riding in the paper sedan chair and directly asked Guo Fan to drive him to the Dajing City headquarters.

He actually didn't have a particularly good impression of Dajing City.

It’s mainly about the last time I came to Dajing City for a blind date. There’s also a naughty kid here, and I don’t know how that naughty kid is doing now.

Isn't he dead?
Being diagnosed with a terminal illness but unwilling to undergo biological surgery, he wants to live until the end of his life as a pure human being. It is quite sad and romantic to think about it.

Unfortunately, when Lin Yuan thought that the protagonist of this story was that naughty kid Xiong Wenwen, he could no longer feel any emotion.

Guo Fan is a good driver. According to Lin Yuan's idea, he finally arrived at Dajing City after more than an hour. With the arrival of the "store manager", the sky above Dajing City was also shrouded in white fog.

Fortunately, the climate in Dajing City is special.

If this kind of weather happened in other cities, they would have to issue a clarification statement to inform that it was not a chemical weapon, but rather foggy weather or something had leaked.

But in Dajing City, that is normal extreme weather.

Not to mention once every few months, even several times a month is completely acceptable.

The ghost taxi drove all the way to the headquarters. As soon as the car stopped, someone came to greet it. It was a relatively important figure in the headquarters:
Shen Liang!

"Boss Lin, long time no see." Shen Liang greeted him with a smile. His smile was very friendly.

Lin Yuan opened the car door and got out, smiling and saying, "It's Captain Shen. Why didn't Captain Shen come to your company's dinner party last time?"

"I was busy with work at the time. I'll definitely do it next time." Shen Liang responded.

After a few casual greetings, Lin Yuan asked about Fang Shiming's condition. Shen Liang followed Cao Yanhua's previous order and said helplessly, "It's not a big problem. Professor Wang has not been in good health recently. Fang Shiming came to find Professor Wang and insisted on dragging Professor Wang out. We were worried that something might go wrong, so we stopped Fang Shiming. But Fang Shiming..."

That’s all I have to say. This is also the normal procedure when dealing with a “store manager”:
Leave some space!

They provide a framework, and the "store manager" fills in his own blanks within this framework, so as to avoid saying or doing things that go beyond the scope of his script and cause the wrath of thunder.

This operation has also been confirmed by long-term experiments.

It is the same now. After hearing this, Lin Yuan basically knew what was going on. He smiled bitterly and said, "Old Fang's situation is a little special, but what he did this time is definitely wrong. Captain Shen let me come here, which means the impact he caused should not be serious. So, let's go to the scene first and then decide how to deal with it. How do you think?"

"That's no problem." Shen Liang nodded. This was why they called the "store manager" over.

Before going in, Lin Yuan suddenly said to Guo Fan: "Go back and pick up Lao Fan."

"what?"

Guo Fan was a little dumbfounded, and quickly said: "Boss, there is no need to call Brother Fan over for such an ordinary matter, right?"

Who is Lao Fan?

There is a ghost messenger with dozens of suppression quotas. If we really send it to the headquarters and let it run wild, then not to mention the headquarters, even Dajing City will be finished!
Shen Liang was also startled and quickly advised: "What is Boss Lin doing?"

"Why are you so nervous? There is some special relationship between Lao Fang and Professor Wang, and the source is Lao Fan, so I thought of asking Lao Fan to come to the scene to deal with it, so that this matter can be resolved." Lin Yuan was confused.

Guo Fan and Shen Liang then breathed a sigh of relief.

Mom!
They were really afraid that the "store manager" would turn hostile and call the ghost messenger Lao Fan to come and mess things up, and then they would really have no chance of keeping the headquarters.

Since they were not here to cause trouble, Guo Fan could only go and call for help.

Shen Liang also immediately signaled to the staff next to him to inform Cao Yanhua and others of the news first, and then he took Lin Yuan into the headquarters.

Lin Yuan was worried about Fang Shiming, so he didn't pay much attention to the surrounding environment.

Following Shen Liang, we soon arrived at a corridor and met familiar faces such as Li Jun, Wei Jing, Ah Hong, and of course some strangers.

Lin Yuan didn't pay much attention to it, but asked with concern: "Where are Lao Fang and Professor Wang?"

"Boss Lin, you are finally here! Fang Shiming has held Professor Wang hostage, and we have locked him up behind this wall. You can see what is going on inside from here."

Cao Yanhua came forward, but the word "hostage" made Lin Yuan's eyes go dark.

Lao Fang, ah Lao Fang!

Are you a fucking fool?

When he heard what Shen Liang said just now, he thought it was no big deal, but now after hearing what Cao Yanhua said, it has escalated to the level of hostage-taking.

As for?
This is not a private place, but a headquarters with countless police officers. What's the difference between coming here to hold the other party's professor hostage and dying together with him?
Even if he's a love rival, it shouldn't be this serious, right?

Lin Yuan's face changed. He had never thought that things would get to this extent. He also hadn't thought that Fang Shiming was not only a big fool, but also a "love-brained" person.

It would have been fine if he was just in love, but it was the love triangle between three men that caused such a big incident.

For a moment, Lin Yuan's entire complexion turned gray. In addition to his complaints about Fang Shiming, he was more worried about himself.

"Minister Cao, you called me over here. Did you send someone to seal up my store?"
