Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 561 Return to reality
An extremely complicated feeling suddenly emerged from Su Yue's heart.

All the little details of the fifteen years I spent with Xia Shou came to my mind.

She suddenly realized that her decision might be wrong.

Sure enough, she still didn't want to give him up to anyone else!

"I!"

The moment Su Yue said the first word, Xia Shou saw the scene in front of him change instantly.

Then, the touch of the clothes on my body, the surrounding environment, and the perception of my body, everything changed drastically in an instant.

"Ohhhhh!! You're back like this?!"

Jiang Wengao's surprised voice came from beside him. Xia Shou turned his head and was hit by Alice on the neck, almost breaking his cervical vertebra.

...Just now, he almost turned his head more than 60 degrees.

In the world of the book, there is no taboo against turning one's head to die, so he developed the habit of turning his head normally.

If Alice hadn't happened just now, he would probably have died on the spot.

Everyone came back, and everyone was wearing clothes from fifteen years ago.

Su Yue's head and body were covered in congealed blood, and he was wearing a special animal skin coat with snail shells attached to it. No. 102 and the others were also dressed in their original attire.

What they were in now seemed to be a holding room. There was a table in the center of the room, and a book was placed in a glass cover on the table.

A white researcher wearing glasses was using a mechanical device to flip through the book "The Season When the Stars Set" through the glass.

When the researcher saw a large group of people suddenly appearing around, he was so scared that he immediately pressed the alarm.

"Fuck, it finally came out!"

Gu Liang ignored the frightened staff, shouted with relief, sat down on the white floor tiles, and completely relaxed.

Others also collapsed to the ground one after another. Everyone's physical and mental state had reached the limit.

Although Gu Liang had done his best to treat everyone before entering the book, the injuries caused by Jiang Wengao's overdraft could not be easily healed.

In the underworld where there is no death, he could still hold out for a while due to his injuries, but after returning to reality, he seemed to have a moment of clarity, and after sighing a few words, he immediately collapsed to the ground, looking half-dead.

Mark dragged his tired body forward to communicate with the staff who came and explained the situation.

After a while, more staff rushed in and took away the most seriously injured people. The chaotic scene finally began to become orderly.

Xia Shou stood there, looking at the messy group of people, feeling a little confused.

Judging from everyone’s reactions, they seemed to have no recollection of the fifteen years described in the book.

It seems that for them, putting books in and taking books out is something that can be done in an instant.

It's strange. Huangfu Zuoren had clearly been in the book, but he seemed to remember everything in the book.

Is there any difference between them entering and exiting the world of the book twice?

Xia Shou actually wanted to ask a few questions, but in the end he held it back.

He didn't want to reveal the truth that he was originally from that book, so pretending to be the same as everyone else for the time being was the best solution.

No. 102 casually walked to Xia Shou's side, his eyes looking in other directions, his mouth moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he snorted coldly:
"Luckily I got out. Every time I go on a mission with you, nothing good ever happens."

After saying this, No. 102 showed an annoyed look again, and immediately added:
"I'd like to thank you on behalf of those two idiots Gu Liang and Shen Fei. This... I was able to survive this time, it's really thanks to you. Let them treat you to a meal next time."

After saying that, No. 102 walked straight towards Gu Liang, Shen Fei and the others.

"This time it was really thrilling, all thanks to Brother Xia Shou." Su Yue came to Xia Shou and sighed softly, hiding her fatigue well.

Xia Shou looked at Su Yue in front of him and was stunned.

Su Yue noticed that Xia Shou's eyes were a little strange. She touched the blood stain on her face and smiled embarrassedly:
"It looks like it will take a long time to wash it clean. The job of a cleaner is really hard... But luckily I managed to persevere this time."

"Well, you've just taken on the role of finisher and you're already carrying out such a mission. It's really hard work for you," Xia Shou comforted.

Xia Shou was still a little uncomfortable seeing Su Yue as a teenager.

Compared with her adult self, there are huge differences in every aspect.

Seeing Su Yue like this again gave Xia Shou a very subtle feeling. "Really, it feels like a long time has passed..." Xia Shou sighed.

“Well, although it’s only been a few days, it feels like a long time.” Su Yue also nodded with emotion.

The door of the shelter opened again, and Li Luo, a department head, rushed in quickly: "Did you succeed?"

Shangguan Yan also followed in behind the other person.

After seeing Xia Shou, Shangguan Yan smiled slightly and snorted, "He looks really embarrassed. I said, this isn't a good task she gave me."

Without waiting for anyone else to say anything, Li Luo immediately looked at Xia Shou and asked expectantly, "Regarding the inscription...is there any progress?"

"Minister, let's let everyone rest for a while. He's in the state he is in now, and I don't think he can explain himself."

No. 102 said to Li Luo, glancing at Xia Shou calmly.

Li Luo nodded immediately: "Thank you for your hard work, if you need anything, I will send someone to arrange it right away.

Are there any injured people here? If not, the others should go to the logistics department to wash themselves first. "

……

……

Although it is called a break, in fact, we still cannot stop the most basic reporting work during the break.

Even when taking a shower in the logistics department, I had to wear waterproof headphones when reporting.

If he had just joined the Control Bureau, he might have felt that this was exploitation of employees, but now he no longer thinks so.

The earlier abnormal phenomena are reported, the less casualties will be caused to the people involved.

Now, as the only survivors who have entered the underworld and successfully survived, their report has immeasurable value.

Every minute and every second can save more investigators who have entered the Blood Cave and help increase the survival rate of investigators who have not yet entered the Blood Cave but are about to enter.

So Xia Shou took this responsibility very seriously. While cleaning his body, he described the rules of the underworld and the events they had experienced in the underworld to the analyst as thoroughly as possible.

To be honest, until now, Xia Shou still doesn't quite feel like he has returned to reality.

In reality, only three days had passed since they entered, which was much shorter than the time Xia Shou felt.

But thinking about it carefully, it was really like that. He only used the naturally cooled [Self-Destruction] twice, and then entered the world in the book.

The development of the world in the book is static. Only when the story is complete will it appear in the novel in an instant. Therefore, fifteen years is actually just a moment.

"Thank you for your hard work. Please have a good rest." said the analyst on the other side of the headset.

Xia Shou let out another long sigh, took off the waterproof headphones in his ears, lowered his head, and let the hot water from the shower head continue to wash down his head.

His feet were firmly on the anti-slip mat, and his intact limbs made him feel unprecedented convenience.

He hadn't taken a standing shower in years.

"Brother Shou, I'm out of shower gel." Jiang Wengao's voice interrupted Xia Shou's thoughts.

Then, a hand passed a bottle of shower gel from Xia Shou's left side to Jiang Wengao on his right side.

Xia Shou frowned and looked to his left and right. Mark and Jiang Wengao, who were also naked, couldn't help but ask, "Why is there no partition in the shower room of the logistics department?"

"Oh~ Don't you know? The water supply to the shower area of ​​the Logistics Department comes from the [Pot of Purification].

Washing the body with this water in a public bathing area without any shelter can effectively remove abnormalities adhering to the body surface and quickly restore physical strength. There is an allusion behind it..."

Gu Liang, who was a little further away, was explaining to Xia Shou while rubbing his armpits.

Xia Shou shook his head and stopped listening. He turned to look at Jiang Wengao and said, "Xiao Gao, your injury healed so quickly?"

"Well, we have cured everything that can be cured, but the sequelae are still quite serious. The doctor said that long-term treatment is required," Jiang Wengao replied.

Xia Shou nodded.

As expected of the Control Bureau, it has a complete set of facilities for bathing and medical treatment.

"Okay, I'm done, you guys continue."
