Weird Regulator

Sir, it's over...

A light sigh came from behind, and the oil-paper umbrella unfolded to cover the black snowflakes flying above Ji Li's head.

Ji Li's ears became extremely quiet, feeling the world silently.

Everything seemed to have come to an end with Gu Xingjian's elimination.

The originally chaotic supernatural aura on the fifth floor dissipated in the blink of an eye.

The store managers who turned into ghosts disappeared one by one, the shadow ghosts returned to the shadows, and the ghosts on the ninth floor returned to where they belonged.

The moment the black snow formed by crow feathers stopped, Ji Li faintly raised his head.

Troubles are not found in others, but people seek their own troubles.

From the beginning to the end, Ji Li regarded Gu Xingjian as a potential opponent and tried to use all means to resolve it.

But even though he has a gray soul in his body now, it's like a punch hitting cotton, weak and weak.

Gu Xingjian would rather let Li Yi kill him than let Ji Li take action.

From this point alone, Ji Li was completely defeated.

When the female voice came to his side again and held up the umbrella for him, Ji Li felt an abnormal tremor in the whole black and white building.

The source is at the bottom of the first floor.

Ji Li's figure slowly became blurry until he disappeared from his job as store manager.

No one knows what Li Yi did.

But what is certain is that he went to the first floor after Gu Xingjian's prompting, and an accident occurred, forcing him to terminate his fourth store manager mission.

All the survivors were sent back to their respective branches.

…

Tianhai Hotel, seventh branch.

Ji Li sat lonely on the chair directly opposite the hall, his arms weakly resting on the chair, and a slowly burning cigarette held between his fingertips.

The hotel is repairing all his injuries, but he is still blind.

There were three things on the table beside him.

An unlit kerosene lamp, a pair of iron scissors, and an old-fashioned calendar.

This is his trophy from this store manager mission.

The scissors are the sinful object of the paper-cutting ghost, and their effects are unclear;

The calendar was stolen from Ruru’s home and is suspected to be related to time;

And this kerosene lamp...

Gu Xingjian's death was planned by himself, but he left behind this sinful kerosene lamp.

Even before he died, he specifically told Ji Li the origin of the crime.

In addition to the calendar, Ji Li will send the kerosene lamp and scissors to Zhu Xiaoning at the 10th store.

This is his promise to that man.

Sir, I can't repair your eyes. I can only wait for you to go to Zhu Xiaoning to get your own eyes back.

The female voice is still so soft, making people feel like spring breeze.

Ji Li showed no expression or movement, as if he had never heard anything and just sat quietly where he was.

I didn't even take another puff on that cigarette.

In the fourth store manager task, he did not get any benefit, and Li Yi failed to get the third piece of the puzzle.

Not to mention the likes of Chen Hansheng and Luo Xian.

On the contrary, it was Zhu Xiaoning who got two items from the store manager mission because of the transaction with Ji Li.

Of course, this also included the kerosene lamp that Gu Xingjian was suspected to have deliberately left behind.

Although Ji Li did not receive any external benefits, he also obtained a lot of information, although most of it was obscure.

First, the songs of the carolers.

“Black sesame seeds, poppy flowers, nothing to eat, eating mud, even my own children have to be sold, my guts are rotten and I hate my mother;

Black sesame seeds, poppy flowers, no food, eating mud, having done immoral things in previous lives, and being caught by ghosts in reincarnation.

The copper pipa, colorful gauze, tall lamp legs, short sweet potatoes, gold locks and silver rings are all torn off, and the head is bleeding and broken;

Bronze pipa, Huancai gauze, tall lamp legs, short sweet potatoes, there was no chance of marriage in this life, so I had to cut the flesh and bones and marry her home.

This first sentence, after Ji Li calmed down and thought about it, might be able to confirm the ghost in the spherical space on the fifteenth floor.

Biological children, female reproductive organs, mother...

These images all correspond to what was seen and heard on the fifteenth floor.

So after this reminder, each line of this song should correspond to a special ghost.

But so far, Ji Li has only guessed the first ghost, but cannot guess the inner meaning of the song at all.

Second, his eyes.

Ji Li knew that he was not a normal person, not even a human being.

But what exactly is he...

Why is it that when someone else's eyes are stuffed into their sockets, a completely unfamiliar voice appears in the depths of his soul.

With overwhelming hatred, he told Ji Li to get out of his body.

And thirdly, Gu Xingjian said that he and Li Yi were both products of that thing...

Combined with the second point, the abnormal eyes and the hateful curses.

The source of Ji Li's pain the most was right here.

He suddenly felt tired and didn't want to do anything. He just felt very tired.

Like a drowning man, he searches everywhere in vain.

At this moment, Ji Li only understood one thing.

He is Ji Li, not Ji Li.

His body, not his body;

His memory, let alone his memory.

Ji Li's blind eyes were just like the dark world he saw.

What was the result of his unscrupulous efforts, desperate efforts, and missions again and again...

He is just a thing created by who knows who.

Since returning to the seventh branch, Ji Li hasn't said a word.

He was reflecting on what he had been doing and what the meaning was.

Until a pair of cold palms grasped his hand tightly.

Sir, no matter who you have been or who you will be.

You are you.

There aren't many meaningful things in this world, but at least you know what you want from this moment on.

The meaning you want will be slowly regained as you move forward step by step.

You will follow the footsteps and find your own meaning and life, and you are destined to complete your redemption.

Ji Li slowly turned his head and looked at the source of the sound.

There is nothingness there, like a black hole that can swallow everything in the world.

But there was a voice that was heartwarming enough to bring him an inch of light in a world of isolation and helplessness.

During this store manager mission, the identity of the female voice is half true and half false.

It was true that she was good to him, and it was also true that she lied to him.

But no matter how sincere or fake the female voice is.

At this moment, she was the only one speaking these words to Ji Li.

Just watching like this, Ji Li thanked him in a low and hoarse voice.

Because today he finally knows what his mission is, he is going to find redemption and meaning.

If what Gu Xingjian said is true, seven days later there will be a joint pick-up mission for the seventh branch and the ninth branch.

Ji Li still remembers that Gu Xingjian would tell him his fate at that time.

And when the time comes, he will tell this man from the bottom of his heart.

No one can count his life.

Now, he is going to Shanghai to redeem his promise.

Use two sinful objects, a kerosene lamp and a paper scissor, to get his eyes back.
