Chapter 1135 Playing Big

The fourth floor.

The only branch that does not enter the screen world.

Chang Sheng was very anxious.

After Chen Hansheng's death, Hou Guisheng took over. Based on his resume and performance in his fifth store manager assignment, no one dared to say anything.

Especially the feat of leading the store staff to reach the four-star level was recognized by all the store staff.

But this time, Chang Sheng really couldn't see through Hou Guisheng's thoughts.

Chang Sheng is also a very senior clerk in the third branch. Although he is over forty, he has a fiery personality, is easy to get angry, and does not speak well, so his popularity in the store is not good.

However, his ability lies here, and he has also taken up the position of deputy store manager. This time, he followed Hou Guisheng to participate in the mission.

But since the mission started, Hou Guisheng has been standing still. Seeing the other branches entering the screen for longer and longer, Chang Sheng really couldn't help it.

He asked in a low voice to the back of the smoking figure in front of the window sill:

"Lao Hou, it's been more than two hours. Can you give me an accurate answer as to what you are thinking?"

In front of the window, Hou Guisheng held a cigarette in one hand and unconsciously played with the lighter in the palm of his hand, looking toward the sky.

After hearing Chang Sheng's words, his expression remained as usual and he just said softly:

"calm down."

Chang Sheng and Hou Guisheng did not have a close personal relationship. Although they admired each other's abilities, their words were still not polite:

"Stay calm. I'm so tired of being idle here. Seeing others doing the work and being popular, let's just sit on the bench here!"

The words he spoke were vulgar and unsuitable for his age, but they also reflected his character.

Hou Guisheng is used to this, and he doesn't like people who don't fight or grab. Although Chang Sheng has a hot temper, this does not prevent him from having a calm mind when performing tasks.

For a deputy store manager, the opportunity to enter the store manager mission is very rare, and it is even rarer to obtain powerful criminal items.

Chang Sheng's mentality was understandable, and Hou Guisheng just let him talk nonsense.

"Tell me the truth, are you brewing some big plan? We will finally step in and make the final decision."

"If that's the case, I can completely feel at ease, but you have to give me accurate information."

"You really don't have any, do you?"

"..."

There was no other way. Hou Guisheng finally turned around, looked at him helplessly, shook his head and said:

"Brother Chang, let me tell you the truth. I want to give up on this mission."

Chang Sheng's already big and round eyes were so wide that they were about to fly out after hearing these words. Although he didn't speak, he was panting like an ox, and his face turned red surprisingly.

Before he got angry, Hou Guisheng showed the lighter in his palm, shook it and explained:

"This is Ji Li's lighter. He threw it to me along with the fireworks. This is a promise."

Although Chang Sheng has a bad personality, he is a sensible person. After hearing these words, his eyes narrowed a lot, but his tone was still a bit harsh:

"You mean, the 'cigarette lighting incident' between you and him during the last mission of the store manager?"

Hou Guisheng nodded, put down the lighter and took another puff of cigarette, his eyes showing consideration:

"The last time we worked together and defeated Gu Xingjian, we made an agreement with a cigarette.

This time, before entering the screen, he left all the fireworks to me, and his intention was very obvious.

Ji Li hopes that I, a peripheral person, will take action at the critical moment. "

The matter was of great importance. Chang Sheng saw through the mystery behind it. His previous impatience was wiped away. He took a few steps forward and said seriously:

"Do you know what he's going to do?"

"It's nothing more than the Red Ban."

Mentally, once you reach a certain level, there isn't much difference.

Ji Li considered that Hou Guisheng could do it, and although the two of them didn't have much interaction, they were very close.

After his last experience as a store manager, he fully understood what kind of person Ji Li was and what he would do.

That's why he hesitates.

“If I help him, it will be difficult to gain anything from this mission except favors.

If I don't help him, based on the progress you and I are currently making, there will be basically nothing achieved. "

Of course, it is not difficult to see from this description that the current situation of the third branch is very passive.

Hou Guisheng's hesitation was not just "whether to help or not", but that he could only help, otherwise he would get nothing. But this feeling of being forced was very painful.

"Ji Li has tied you to his chariot..."

Chang Sheng saw the key point at a glance.

In fact, it can be seen from the last store manager mission that Hou Guisheng and Ji Li have actually become enemies with the Ninth Branch.

Although Gu Xingjian himself may not care much about this "enemy", Hou Guisheng's position is frozen here after all.

Because of this, Hou Guisheng hesitated when he received the fireworks. It was this moment that made his positioning even more rigid, leading to him missing the opportunity to take the initiative.

Now he can only choose to help Ji Li and act as a "backup".

Hou Guisheng is not Xue Tingtao. He is a knowledgeable and skillful store manager. He cannot bear to be so passive all the time.

Chang Sheng also pondered. He began to think calmly about the current situation. After a while, he tentatively said:

"Otherwise, let's go find Gu Xingjian..."

When Hou Guisheng heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, he held the lighter and asked:

"Do you have any idea?"

A strange color appeared on Chang Sheng's face, and he said with a fierce look:

"The grudge between Ji Li and Gu Xingjian is no longer a secret, they are no different from mortal enemies.

Even if Ji Li wanted to focus on the mission, he couldn't do it. Gu Xingjian would definitely do it secretly, which is why he came to you.

Then under this premise, you become a third party besides Ji and Gu, and you are very important.

If you go to find Gu Xingjian at this time..."

Chang Sheng's intention is already very clear.

Gu Xingjian is not a good person, and Ji Li is not a good person. If you have to choose between the two, Chang Sheng's suggestion is to choose Gu Xingjian.

The reason is very simple.

Ji Li is obviously in the open in this mission, which is an absolute disadvantage.

The only back-up is Hou Guisheng, which is definitely not a trump card with the ability to turn the tables.

Hou Guisheng fell into silence after hearing this, and he turned around and looked at the window of the black and white building again, where there was a dark sky and bleak moonlight.

This time he had more time to think It was getting longer and longer, but Chang Sheng did not interrupt or urge him, and waited for the result.

It is conceivable.

Hou Guisheng's decision will directly affect Ji Li's life and Gu Xingjian's success or failure.

In fact, from this aspect alone, it is enough to understand how disadvantaged Ji Li is now.

Once he loses, it will be a life-and-death crisis, while Gu Xingjian's loss is just a failure of an action.

It is clear at a glance which is more important.

However, when Hou Guisheng turned his head, what he said surprised Chang Sheng.

"I am going to find Gu Xingjian, but I am not going to cooperate with him, but to kill him!"

The moonlight shone obliquely on his side face, making Hou Guisheng's face look particularly gloomy and evil at the moment, but the firmness in his eyes showed that these words were carefully considered.

Before Chang Sheng had time to ask his questions, Hou Guisheng's answer came immediately, and he was unable to refute it.

"Only when Ji Li is more disadvantaged, the return we give him will be more generous.

If you want to play, you should play a big one!"
