Weird Regulator

The root ghost of Tiannan Academy said it was innocent.

In fact, Ji Li was willing to believe this in his heart.

This ghost is very special. It has been here for such a long time, and its power no longer needs to be proven.

But even it can hardly violate the mission of Tianhai Hotel. It passively became the mission location and acted as a "villain".

Ji Li once learned part of the information from Yu Guo, Tongguan and others.

In the normal Tiannan College, the killing method of this root ghost is to disguise the identity of the teachers and students in the school, and use the school rules and regulations to avoid the killing of the ghost.

It has its own college system.

However, in this mission, it only served as a framework for the mission and did not kill anyone personally.

Ji Li had previously guessed that it had reached some kind of deal with Tianhai, and it seemed that this deal took the academy as the mission location.

And this transaction is likely to be passive and not equal.

That's why it said that it, like Lu Jingting, was an innocent person.

But Ji Li doesn't completely agree with this statement. At least the root ghost has some selfish motives in him.

It wants to place a bet on him.

The bet between Ji Li and Tian Hai should come to an end this year.

And there are already six special ghosts betting on Ji Li in different ways.

Now, Ji Li has become the dean of Tiannan College, which means that the root ghosts are also using this mission to continue to increase Ji Li's strength.

As a mission site, it has no right to interfere too much with the mission process, but it does create convenience for Ji Li to do his best.

For example, the identity of the deputy dean at the beginning.

This phenomenon also shows from the side that Tianhai Hotel is indeed as they guessed. It only no longer has absolute control in Shanming City.

Tiannan College is secretly working to bring it down.

After thinking about this, things came to a dead end again.

Ji Li still had no memory of why he was on the gambling table. He had come to more and more conclusions, but he was still unable to deduce the beginning.

Thinking of this, he asked his third and last question.

"Gu Xingjian, what exactly are you doing here?"

Ji Li always paid special attention to Gu Xingjian.

Because he has now discovered that Gu Xingjian, to him, is exactly the same as the Tianhai Gambling Game that he has been struggling with.

He had always known that Gu Xingjian's ultimate goal was to overthrow Tianhai, but he could never find out where he got this confidence.

Ji Li has been thinking about this issue since the first time he met this person, but it is still a mystery to this day.

Gu Xingjian seems to have a sense of foresight about Tianhai's past, present, and future.

Based on this, all his actions reflect the four words "step by step".

Even every sinful item used will achieve extremely effective effects at the most appropriate time.

For example, the paper man's crime object has the ability to be deployed in multiple places at the same time while making it difficult for him to die;

For example, the soul-splitting crime object gave him three more lives when it was already difficult to die;

For example, although I haven’t seen any sin-judging objects yet, soul-like sin-objects must have miraculous effects;

Then there's the pocket watch that was a part of this mission. Without it, the mission couldn't even start.

Gu Xingjian was as smart as a demon and was the smartest person Ji Li had ever seen.

Ji Li was self-sufficient in terms of layout and calculation, he could be called the top, but even so, he was still three to five steps behind Gu Xingjian.

But no matter how smart a person is, it is absolutely impossible to reach such heights with human power.

Therefore, Ji Li believes that Gu Xingjian's layout ability is unique, but there must be a secret about Tianhai behind him.

No one could have imagined this secret. Only when the family fell into Gu Xingjian's hands did he have the confidence to challenge Tianhai.

While thinking, a piece of snow fell on the mirror, and then a "dead man" appeared in front of Ji Li.

She was like a person who had been dead for a long time. When she was suddenly teleported here, she buried her head in the snow and remained motionless.

Ji Li watched her thin shirt rustling in the wind, and slowly reached out and dug up a snowdrift.

Song Yitong slowly raised her head from the snow, but fell down weakly on another snowdrift, but her eyes had been opened, staring blankly at the dark clouds in the sky.

The root ghost's move has already shown that it cannot answer questions about Gu Xingjian. To get what you want, you need to go through the clerk of the seventh branch.

Song Yitong is indeed very powerful.

In this desperate situation with nowhere to escape, she was able to survive for nearly three hours among seventy-seven men in black and even endless waves of ghosts.

Lu Jingting and Chen Xu were dead long ago, and Mo Lan also died two hours ago. As the last living person except Ji Li, she really lived up to her reputation as a top store clerk.

However, it can be seen from her gradually dilated pupils and look of deathly exhaustion that her end is coming soon.

"Don't ask, I don't know anything about Gu Xingjian."

Song Yitong didn't give Ji Li a chance to ask questions. She looked at the sky with a dead look on her face and said lightly.

Ji Li didn't speak, but he could tell from his tone that it wasn't that the other party was unwilling to confess, but that he really didn't know anything.

"But I guess that the five special locations were clues that Gu Xingjian revealed to us in advance. I don't know what his purpose was."

However, when Ji Li was silent, Song Yitong expressed his speculation.

Regarding this issue, Ji Li had already thought about it. Gu Xingjian's actions when he came to the academy last time coincided with the five special locations of this mission, so they were by no means aimless.

The most reasonable guess at the moment is that this was Gu Xingjian's alternative reminder to Ji Li, causing him to involuntarily pay attention to these five locations during the mission.

Gu Xingjian must not be helping Ji Li out of kindness, so the conclusion is easy to reason...

He hoped that Ji Li could leave Tiannan College alive.

No purpose can be found, and no purpose can be found. It seems that the news surrounding Gu Xingjian will always be like this.

Ji Li was a little impatient. He had wasted too much brains on this person, but he kept going back and forth.

He was like a nail embedded in Ji Li's heart. It usually didn't hurt, but his presence was very uncomfortable.

…

When Ji Li passed by the men in black with his cane, the exit from the main entrance was only a few steps away.

He was carrying Yu Guo's handbag, which contained criminal items, also known as trophies, that had been looted from corpses.

The strange thing is that none of these sinful objects were obtained from Tiannan College. They were all taken from the dead clerks.

Zhong Feiluan's face and the parasitic ghost on Mo Lan's body have all disappeared after their deaths.

Maybe this is the price of sin...

The price of keeping secrets is that as long as they are used, it is impossible to walk out of Tiannan College alive.

In addition to a bunch of sinful objects, Ji Li actually took something away from here, a ghost to be precise: Director Wang.

According to Ji Li's character, he would rather take away the root ghost, but after knowing its identity, it is absolutely impossible for this ghost to be picked up by the hotel.

The next best thing, Ji Li took away Director Wang because Yu Guo's death was more or less related to him.

When he stepped out of the main entrance of the college, he turned his head and took another look at the quiet university.

In the swirling snowflakes, he seemed to see a woman wearing a white dress, sitting and waiting quietly in front of the newly constructed tomb of the Ghost Academy.

Everything in Tiannan ends here.

When only Ji Li walked out of the front door among the twenty clerks, the second hand that had frozen one day and two nights finally started moving again.

Today is midnight on January 1, 2016, and the new year has begun.
