Chapter 27 Old Friend in Black
At eight o'clock in the evening on October 26, 2015, Ji Li was awakened from his sleep by the email reminder.
It could be said that he had been waiting for this mission for several hours.
When the phone screen lit up, the dim light shone dazzlingly on Ji Li's pale face, revealing the surprise in his pupils.
"It's actually to protect others..."
Ji Li put down his cell phone. The content of the mission was already engraved in his heart. He lit a cigarette and began to meditate.
"There should be no ghosts in Bogu Building."
The voice of the third personality echoed, and he seemed to know a little about that building.
Ji Li nodded and listened quietly.
"This is a commercial building with a mixed crowd.
As far as I know, there are over twenty of those small companies alone.
The number of employees definitely exceeds 300!
Maybe it was because there were too many people during the day, so it was easier for us to enter at night. The hotel had calculated for us that there were now 43 people left there. ”
The second personality was a little suspicious, "How did you know?"
"I once went to treat a boss there."
Ji Li waved his hand and stopped listening to their gossip. He grabbed the backpack that had been prepared on the chair and strode out of the room.
When he walked out of the door, he saw a figure like him standing at the end of the third floor, hidden in the darkness, smoking a cigarette.
If it weren't for the flickering firelight in the darkness, the man seemed to have completely blended in with his surroundings.
Ji Li watched quietly until the man walked quickly towards him.
In fact, Ji Li never had a good impression of Tongguan from beginning to end.
This is not Tongguan's problem, it's that he feels that they may not be partners.
Tongguan looked at him, looked him up and down several times, and said in a quiet voice:
"I see a deathly aura exuding from you, but it's not from the inside out.
You have killed people, many people..."
Ji Li's eyes were confused, thinking he was talking about something during the mission, so he asked casually: "Your eyes are very accurate."
"You are very much like an old friend of mine. Have you ever been to No. 77 Tulip Street, Shanghai, Shanghai in the past years?"
Tongguan's tone became unpredictable, and his resolute profile showed no emotion.
But Ji Li felt secretly that what he said was the words of an old friend, and it was by no means that simple.
Ji Li finally raised his head and looked at him, but did not answer his question. He just responded coldly:
"No wonder you kept staring at me from the moment you entered the hotel.
There are no results or answers to many things now. Everything is based on survival first. ”
After Ji Li said this, he turned and left.
From the moment he entered the hotel, Tongguan observed him again and again, including the conversation just now.
Ji Li could never figure out what this man's intentions were and what his purpose was.
This feeling of being beyond control left him with a lump in his throat.
Tongguan threw the cigarette butt under his feet and stamped it out, looking directly at Ji Li's back. Under the interlacing light, his expression was a little dazed.
"Is it him?"
Chang Nian didn't know when she came to Tongguan's side. Her tone was a little soft, not as harsh as the previous few hours.
Tongguan's pupils were filled with pain, and his palms holding Chang Nian were covered with fine sweat.
"I don't know.
When I was seven years old, my parents were taken away by four men in black robes in front of my eyes. I only remember the vague figure of the leading man and could not recognize them. But I still remember that long dark hair and those cold eyes.
Ji Li's eyes are very similar to that person's, but...
Twenty years have passed. In order to find out the truth about the murder of my parents, I came to Shanming City, entered Tianhai Hotel, and became the store manager.
I thought I was close, especially the moment I met Ji Li!
But there are too many doubts! ”
Tongguan's shoulders trembled. His whole life had been ruined by those four men in black robes, and he was still unable to find the real culprit.
Until he came here and saw Ji Li, his heart trembled!
Those eyes and indifferent expression were almost exactly the same as that of the leader!
This is why he openly showed his hostility.
"But his age doesn't match up at all, and you said that the leader in black robes has gray pupils, but Ji Li does not.
The clues we found were broken after we arrived at the cemetery..." Chang Nian looked at Tongguan's painful appearance, and his heart hurt.
Tongguan breathed a long sigh of relief and relaxed his body,
“We had just found the cemetery and were taken into the hotel.
This shows that there must be some connection between Tianhai, my parents, the man in black robe, and Ji Li.
Let’s survive first, get close to Ji Li, and understand everything about him! ”
……
"The content of the mission is not complicated, but not much is revealed. We need to arrive at Bogu Building to understand the specific situation."
In the van, Ji Li held his cell phone, looked at the mission information, and said to everyone in the van.
Yu Guo looked back and forth with his mobile phone in one hand. He couldn't let go of the banned live broadcast room or the next task. He was sweating profusely.
Fang Shenyan drove the car and said while driving: "I checked on the Internet that there are no supernatural events in Bogu Building, but since the hotel has explained it, it means there must be a ghost there.
Moreover, that ghost will be very fierce. 43 staff members will kill it within six hours. I am very curious about its killing method. ”
Ji Li nodded, then turned his head and looked at Tongguan behind, who looked calm:
"What do you think?"
Li Xing also set his sights on Tongguan. In his opinion, the so-called store manager Ji Li had no intention of supporting him at all. It was better to follow Tongguan, who seemed to be relatively gentle.
Tongguan thought for a moment and said softly:
"A six-hour mission with 43 staff members. Even if we can't protect ourselves, we still have enough time to guess the way out.
This task is not difficult. ”
Yu Guo laughed at the side. He laughed out of anger, and everyone understood the meaning of his laughter.
Only Ji Li, the parties involved, Tongguan, and Chang Nian had expressionless faces.
Ji Li also wanted to see why Tongguan was so trusting and conceited.
"We're here!"
The van came to a sudden stop, and Fang Shenyan's cold words came out. Without even looking at the clerk behind him, he got out of the car first and stood at the door of Bogu Building.
The Bogu Building has a total of seventeen floors. From the outside, various billboards are overwhelming, tightly surrounding the entire building.
Even though it was already ten o'clock in the evening, most of the windows were still lit.
Ji Li raised his head, and a drop of cold rain fell on his face at the right moment.
Gloomy dark clouds covered the original sky, and also pulled the six people in front of the building into darkness.
Ji Li stretched out his palm to catch the raindrops and said softly:
"It's raining, it's time to enter the mission."
