Chapter 1224: Exposing the Evil Ghost
In the middle of Orange Lake, in front of the Toy Town project.
The sky is colorful, which is a strange sight caused by the overly bright lights in the park. As for the moonlight, it has already completely become a foil.
It was 7:10 in the evening, and there were still many tourists here, and it even seemed that there were more.
The main road in the middle was crowded with people at many forks, and too many projects were crowded.
Ji Li sat alone on a bench in the rest area, smoking calmly and observing people coming and going.
He has maintained a similar posture for nearly half an hour, and has never moved, nor has he participated in any project.
At present, the gold coin storage capacity of the seventh branch has reached an exaggerated number, nearly 300.
This does not include the number in Hongfu's hands and Cheng Ming's hands. If the three parties are added together, I am afraid it will be close to the number of "350".
The reason why it is so rich is mainly because the indoor game area, one of the six theme parks in Orange Lake, is completely occupied by the seventh branch.
He brought 167 gold coins with him, and when he left, he had nearly double the amount.
After draining the gold coins in the seventh branch, he destroyed most of the game equipment, causing other branches to give up the idea.
Three hundred and fifty gold coins, even if the seventh and twelfth branches were divided equally, would be enough to deal with the settlement after the park closed in three hours.
In any case, Ji Li didn't have to worry about the ranking issue, so the only thing he had to think about was one thing.
At the same time, a young man with an anxious look not far away was cursing and pushing the crowd, rushing over here anxiously.
As the crowd surged, Hong Fu's face was sweating, and he came to Ji Li's side and gasped.
"Oh my god, why are there so many people here? I'm almost squeezed into a cookie."
Ji Li took a puff of cigarette, glanced at him and asked:
"Have you investigated everything?"
Hong Fu grinned and nodded, took out a small notebook from his arms, sat next to Ji Li and began to mutter:
"Gu Qingyun lost 102 gold coins to Hou Guisheng in the round game and is going crazy over there.
Su Chenghe took two shop assistants to participate in the roller coaster project. In the end, he was the only one who survived and earned 40 gold coins.
Xue Tingtao The team with Wei Guang is now making steady progress, doing some low-level projects to accumulate gold coins. I guess the amount is not much.
Li Guanqi is useless. After returning from the horror house project, only Chen Tang is left as a clerk, and his right arm is also lost.
Don't mention Huangfu Jiajia. You, the store manager, know her situation best.
Cheng Ming is taking the same path as the fourth branch. He only plays some small games and earns a few gold coins per game. There are no casualties. "
Obviously, Hong Fu was assigned by Ji Li to investigate the specific situation of the other branches.
Through a long period of collection, he basically has the situation of the ten major branches, but he has omitted a few important names.
Hong Fu also saw a slightly inquiring look in Ji Li's eyes, so he closed the book and said:
"Li Yi is on 'vacation' at the rockery, and it is clear that he has no intention of participating in this mission.
What is really worthy of our concern is that Luo Xian has disappeared, and she has not appeared in our sight for a long time.
Including her sixth branch, there is no news about Shao Yongan and others. I have also checked various projects, and none of them are present.
And at the ninth branch, without Gu Xingjian, there are Clyde, Huang Banxian and a man named Bailang.
They can be said to be elites, but so far, Clyde and others have participated in projects, only Huang Banxian has not done any project, I don't know what's going on."
The situation of each branch is different, but it is obvious that except for Ji Li's relatively stable side, everyone else has more or less problems.
Hong Fu was silent for a moment, then spoke again:
"The disc game is somewhat similar to gambling. You may spend a lot of money but get nothing, or you may make a lot of money in one gambling game.
Gu Qingyun lost, Hou Guisheng won.
But I guess that at the earliest one hour later, those desperate branches, especially the incompetent clerks, will all gamble their future fate."
Although Hong Fu has a carefree personality, he still has a certain kindness in his heart, which is very similar to Yu Guo.
So he actually doesn't want to see those clerks who once fought side by side and were both enemies and friends, pin their hopes of life on the disc game that swallows people without spitting out bones.
Such a fate is too sad.
Ji Li did not comment on this. His mind was still full of his own affairs. After taking the last puff of cigarette, he said:
"Fang Shenyan sent a message that the horror house project failed and the project has been blocked. It is estimated that there will be no follow-up.
But he said he was trying to deal with it, and I didn't ask what to deal with."
When Hong Fu heard about the horror house project, his face turned pale. Obviously, he was responsible for gathering intelligence and had heard a little about this project.
The horror of that project is completely disproportionate to the reward for passing the level.
In theory, how could such a difficult project only have 50 gold coins.
At present, the project with the highest reward in the entire park is the roller coaster executed by Su Chenghe. Although that is only 40 coins, the difficulty is probably not even half of the horror house.
"Forget it if it doesn't work. Even if it passes the level, it's a loss. If there is another mistake, Teacher Fang is the treasure of our store."
Hong Fu didn't know the inside story, so it was understandable for him to say so.
But neither Ji Li nor Fang Shenyan would think so.
The commission task of the ten branches is definitely not a simple task of brushing gold coins. It must have deeper secrets.
The hidden rules mentioned by the man in the suit are one of them.
And the ticket that Ji Li is holding now is the second.
"By the way, didn't you say that you had a big project to do?
I see that you look like you have been resting for a while, right?"
Hong Fu also felt strange. He saw that Ji Li looked calm and did not look like he had executed any big project.
Ji Li did have a project to do, but he could not take the initiative to enter this project, but could only participate passively. That was the special project of the clown doll.
This kind of special project is a staged "card collection" project.
Based on the judgment of this commission task, Fang Shenyan focused on the hidden rules, while Ji Li focused on the special project, so as to explore the true nature of this task in two aspects.
Hong Fu, Cheng Ming and others naturally focused on gold coins and intelligence.
As long as they can ensure the current gold coin stock and not be the last among the ten branches, Ji Li will not take the initiative to participate in other projects.
Unfortunately, during Fang Shenyan's entry into the horror house, Ji Li had been waiting for the clown doll to appear, but he never waited for it.
After thinking again and again, Ji Li picked up his cane, slowly got up from the bench, and said to Hong Fu:
"Just play a few simple games when you have nothing to do, and make sure you don't die and continue the investigation."
Since the current situation of the admission ticket is still very obscure, the speculation about its involvement in the essence of this mission is just speculation, so Ji Li did not say it clearly.
However, special projects may come at any time, and will pull in idle people, so Hong Fu should try not to participate.
"Okay, then I'll go over there and hit a balloon."
Hong Fu simply stopped caring. Without the pressure of gold coins, his mentality was particularly relaxed. Perhaps he was the only one who could enjoy happiness in this extremely weird paradise.
Ji Li looked up at the Orange Lake Castle above. It was still pitch black there, but he couldn't remember exactly when the lights were turned off.
He couldn't even remember whether the lights were turned off or on at the beginning of the mission.
In this cool night, if you actively ignore the lights and neon lights, you can still barely catch a crescent moon hanging in the dark sky.
The moon, like a sharp scimitar, shone with cold light at both ends. When the cold wind was blowing in the sky, it looked like a guillotine that could be cut down at any time.
He looked at it like this until the moon gradually turned from silver to red, releasing a strong crisis signal.
Ji Li's consciousness gradually became drowsy, and the whole person fell into a state of nothingness. Only a familiar voice suddenly sounded:
"Special project, enforcer: the manager of the seventh branch.
Game goal: try to find the evil spirit hidden among you and expose his identity in public.
Hint: Memory.
Game reward: keep it secret for the time being."
After waiting for half an hour, the special project finally arrived as expected.
