Weird Regulator

The man in black stood guard at the door of No. 1414 with a black umbrella like a statue, looking straight ahead and not moving.

On the mobile phone screen, chat boxes of some people kept popping up.

Ke Xinyi: "Who is this person? Why didn't you modify the notes?"

Pang Guijuan: "Why is this thing buzzing? Can anyone tell me how to turn it off?"

Chang Nian: "Isn't he from the seventh branch, nor from your ninth branch?"

After the three ladies asked three questions, the "big-eyed doll" never responded, and still launched a "group video" on the top of the chat interface, without answering the above questions at all.

Until a user named "Lan Yu" joined the group chat at the bottom of the chat record.

After he joined the group, he immediately sent a message:

"The probability of it being a ghost is 80%. I guess this group chat has been invaded by ghosts. Let's quit the group."

After saying this, Lan Yu had just joined for less than ten seconds when a notification popped up saying "Lan Yu has left the group chat."

Then came Chang Nian, Ke Xinyi, and then Yan Ji and Tongguan who had not spoken also left the group one by one. Now only Ji Li and Clyde were left in the group chat.

After Ji Li stared at the avatar for a long time, Clyde first disbanded the group chat and he was kicked out.

Lan Yu also arrived.

The countdown to the start of the mission entered the final stage, and he caught up with the first group supernatural event - ghosts invaded the group chat.

But in fact, Ji Li thought it was not just a group chat.

He flipped through the new mobile phone that Tianhai had transformed into in his palm, and finally put it in his hand, took out the phone card with his fingernails, and crushed it under his feet.

Big-eyed doll, the invasion should be the mobile phone of every clerk.

All clerks, whether new or old, have a most basic principle - that is, the mobile phone must be silent at all times!

But Ji Li's mobile phone just rang with a deafening ringtone, including Pang Guijuan who reported a similar situation.

It turned out to be multiple ghosts.

Ji Li turned his head and glanced at the roof of the 18th floor. From this position, he could vaguely see the abandoned façade on the top of the west building.

The twin female ghosts were no longer there, but the facts proved that they must exist.

Until now, the mission has not officially started, and this Yu Lao Street has almost become a den of ghosts, one after another, endlessly.

Ji Li stood in front of the door and thought for a while, and finally took out the communicator from the lining pocket and turned on the public channel.

Since the fifth store manager mission, the number of multi-point joint missions has increased, and the communicator has basically become a necessity, so the public channel is also used as the first channel for store employees to communicate.

Ji Li half-closed his eyes and raised his head slightly, and whispered to the communicator:

"I am Ji Li, at the door of No. 1414, and I will enter at the same time as the mission begins.

Everyone who can hear now, turn off your mobile phone immediately and report your location."

There are basically no really stupid store employees who can survive to this time, even Pang Guijuan.

She was the first person to answer.

"I'm Pang Guijuan, also at the door of 6002, waiting for the old man to go home after buying groceries."

"I'm Yan Ji, bandaging Clyde's leg wound in room 201, nothing unusual for the time being."

"I'm Ke Xinyi from the ninth branch, waiting for my employer to open the door for me in front of room 1001."

"I'm Chang Nian, sitting in room 1002 with Tongguan, waiting for my parents-in-law who are on a mission to go home."

"I'm Lan Yu, standing at the bottom of the patio, you can see me if you look down.

I'll enter shop 101 in three minutes, I seem to be opening a shop here."

Eight people, all reported their respective positions and statuses.

Everyone answered very completely, and had turned off their phones before. A feeling of impending storms spread to every corner of Yu Lao Street through the communicator.

This atmosphere seemed to be about to awaken something terrifying.

"Still eight people..."

Ji Li frowned, Tianhai's email clearly stated that ten shop assistants would participate, but now it has come to this moment, and the last two have not been exposed.

Is it deliberately concealed?

Or is there something else going on?

Ji Li could not care about so much for the time being. He pressed the communicator and explained it one last time.

"My phone was invaded by a ghost. I have seen twin female ghosts on the roof of the 18th floor in advance, and there seemed to be signs of the elevator pulling people...

All these situations mean that this must be a task for multiple ghosts, and it is very likely that the ghosts we see are not the root ghosts.

Everyone must pay attention to communication, exchange, and even meeting. Under the premise of many ghosts, I suspect that the companions I will meet later may not be living people.

Trick, inducement, traps, pay more attention to details.

Unless necessary, do not communicate or meet each other.

It is now 5:58 pm. At 7 o'clock tonight, we will have our first meeting at the elevator entrance on the 9th floor in the middle of the northwest building.

That's it. Everyone turn off electronic equipment and stay calm."

When this long paragraph was finished, there was only one minute left before the start of the mission.

The countdown has begun, slowly... slowly... completing to zero.

Ji Li's eyelids jumped for no reason, but the arrow was already on the string, and he threw the backpack into the living room from the door.

After a "dong" sound, he began to walk inside in silence.

Just after entering Room 1414, the black door behind him suddenly closed, and the keyhole turned with a "click-click-click" sound, and it was locked mechanically.

Ji Li took a deep breath, tapped the marble floor with his cane, and watched the scene without saying a word.

He was very silent until a dark shadow ignored the barrier of space, passed through the door panel and held a black umbrella over his head.

The man in black was still there.

Ji Li knew that there must be a ghost in this room, and it was hard to say whether it was one or two. After all, the twin female ghosts seemed to have targeted him before the mission started.

And the lonely old man in this room who was already haunted.

"Dong Dong Dong!"

Before Ji Li entered the room to observe, the sound of the old-fashioned clock came from the depths of the living room. It was ancient and melodious, with a unique sense of time.

"Time..."

It was six o'clock in the evening. Ji Li pressed his steps, and the whole person seemed to be hidden, and walked forward along the dark entrance.

The bathroom door was a brown wooden board with a bare surface, but it was locked, and it was not a door lock.

A large vermilion lock, as big as an adult's fist, was tied to the door with three thick chains, as if it was afraid of someone entering or coming out.

Ji Li's steps were slow, and he was more tentative, groping forward in the dark.

The yellow light on the big TV in the corner of the living room became the most important detail of No. 1414.

Ji Li subconsciously stared at the light, and when he passed the bathroom, he put his hand on the door panel, and immediately retracted his hand after just touching it.

The door was very thick, thicker than the door outside, but even so thick, he still felt like he was touching a piece of ice, and the things in the bathroom were releasing terrifying coldness.

"Dong Dong!"

The old clock was still telling time, as if waiting for someone to close it in advance, and couldn't wait until 18:01.

But Ji Li didn't dare to move rashly, and put the bathroom aside for the time being, and he finally came to the living room.

Standing at the door before, the view was not wide enough, but now I can really see the layout of the whole room.

A living room of about ten square meters, with sofas, eight-immortal table, TV, cabinets, shrines...everything you can think of for daily life.

At the same time, on the left side of the living room, looking inside, a bedroom with a half-open door is the place where the old clock sounds the time.

Room 1414 is very strange.

Even though the detailed and complete search has not been completed, Ji Li has already felt the weirdness of the whole house, which comes from the malice hidden in the darkness.

Ji Li did not rush to the bedroom immediately, but came to the eight-immortal table in the living room and bent down to look at something under the corner of the table.

This is what he saw at the door before and insisted that it should not be here.

At No. 1414, under the eight-immortal table in the home of an elderly person living alone, a pair of dark blue boxer men's swimming trunks appeared.

The surface of the swimming trunks has long been filthy, and some parts are dark yellow, with bursts of disgusting stench.

Obviously, it had been abandoned here for a long time.

This was something that Ji Li could never imagine, why it appeared in No. 1414.

Because although the elderly person living alone was unknown whether he was a man or a woman, he definitely could not use this kind of swimming trunks.

At the same time, when he just stood up, the TV suddenly lit up automatically, and a piercing noise sounded immediately, even drowning out the time of the old clock.

Ji Li raised his head suddenly, and saw that the prompt light of the TV had turned from yellow to green, and there was a snowflake flashing on the screen. There was no program, but a strange sound of "woo woo woo" came from the speakers.

This sound was very strange, but very rhythmic, like a wave-like melody, and there seemed to be some information hidden behind it.

Ji Li was fascinated by it, but he could not think of what this sound represented until he heard a certain sound, and suddenly an idea flashed.

"One beat, two long sounds, three beats, three long sounds, two beats..."

This is the 'silence' in Morse code, that is, silence.
