Chapter 373 Ten-Minute Blank Period

The three-day-long heavy snow stopped today, and Ji Li could no longer look directly at the horizon as he did in the past.

He stood at an empty street corner, holding his chest and coughing violently a few times, with a bloodstain spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Ji Li's body was already reaching its limit. At this moment, his chest was burning, and his lungs felt like they were burning without taking a breath.

A shadow appeared in front of his eyes, and his body was still shaky even if he was holding on to the wall.

After running around for several days and nights and strong psychological pressure, the injuries on his body had long been on the verge of an outbreak.

Ji Li hit his temples hard with the butt of his gun, wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth, and took out the cigarette box from his arms with a slightly trembling hand.

Smoking at this time would only make his body worse, but he urgently needed to wake up now, even if it was painful.

The first puff, the second puff, the third puff...

When he took the fourth puff, Ji Li put out the cigarette and decided not to wait.

When he turned his head, his face was almost the same as white paper, without a trace of blood, but the bright red lips represented the blood he had just wiped off.

He was right. Tongguan must have achieved his goal.

Death is the common way to death for both ghosts, and it is also the only way to attract ghosts.

But the female leather-faced ghost has not arrived yet, Mu Nianmei has also disappeared, and Tongguan has not appeared here.

This means that everything is irreversible.

Perhaps Tongguan is on the way to capture the female leather-faced ghost, or has already succeeded.

What is left for Ji Li is a mission that conventional means cannot provide a way out, and a ghost that has completely become unsolvable.

But he still has some time, the last period of time.

Ji Li understands the principle of planning failure before success. When he shot the boy, he had already begun to conceive a plan after the operation failed.

In fact, Ji Li is not without a backup plan.

To a certain extent, he has no way to deal with the female leather-faced ghost except the bronze ancient coffin.

But facing Mu Nianmei, as long as he is given time, this ghost is not purely unsolvable...

Mu Nianmei has a most fatal weakness.

But this weakness, except Ji Li, no one can grasp it.

Because Ji Li has an identity, the acting store manager of the seventh branch, he has the power to command the affairs of the store.

This power of command also includes releasing ghosts!

Ji Li took a deep breath. His failure created the success of Tongguan, and the success of Tongguan also brought him a new way of life.

A way of life opened up only for Ji Li.

He walked into the alley, dismantled the bodies on the ground one by one, and poured them into the handbag.

He lifted it up suddenly and almost dragged Ji Li. Now Ji Li has no strength to do this, so he can only put the handbag on the ground and drag it out.

Even because the main body of the body is too large, he can only carry it on his shoulders.

When Ji Li walked back to the street, he was like a demon who had just crawled out of hell, and the street, which was originally not crowded, was completely cleared.

But not far away, the sound of sirens rang.

Ji Li had no time to waste. He saw an unsuspecting private car driving into Xijiang Road. When the other party approached and did not suddenly run away, he raised his hand and fired a shot.

The car braked suddenly and stopped in front of Ji Li. A pale young girl sat inside, looking like a novice.

Ji Li pulled the passenger door and found it was locked. He glanced at her and fired two shots at the glass without saying much.

Then he reached into the door and unlocked it. He stuffed his handbag and torso into the back seat.

As soon as he got in the car, Ji Li was choked by the smell of the car perfume and coughed. He vomited a few mouthfuls of blood because his lungs were already uncomfortable.

If he failed to complete the task, he was afraid that he would really die of exhaustion on the road.

Ji Li reached out and unplugged the aromatherapy and threw it away. He picked up the towel next to the girl and wiped the blood on his face and said:

"Send me to the moat."

The girl looked at him blankly without responding. The tassels on her earlobes were trembling slightly, like crystal snowflakes.

Ji Li frowned and coughed violently again. He raised his voice hoarsely:

"The fastest speed!"

The car finally made a ferocious roar and drove Ji Li towards the destination before the police car arrived.

Ji Li guessed that he had some time, but only five minutes at most.

He calculated the distance and it would take at least fifteen minutes to reach the moat.

In other words, if he wanted to complete the task, he had to fight one-on-one and hold Mu Nianmei for ten minutes without dying!

The pressure was so great that Ji Li could hardly breathe. This was an impossible task.

But he couldn't think about it now. He had to complete the follow-up arrangements within the existing five minutes.

He took out his mobile phone and called Yu Guo first, but no one answered after a long ring.

Ji Li frowned, and after thinking, he called Mei Sheng.

At this moment, in the seventh branch, the only people he could contact were Mei Sheng and Chang Nian.

But Chang Nian was Tongguan's wife after all, so he didn't dare to gamble and could only open Mei Sheng.

Not long after, Mei Sheng's lazy voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

Ji Li was silent for a moment and then said, "Do me a favor."

"What favor?" Mei Sheng seemed to be in a good mood and didn't ask much.

"Go and release the ghost in room 212."

The Kyoto mission was to have two ghosts in one, a ghost and a human figure, and because the seventh branch performed well, the ghost that controlled the human figure was taken into the hotel by them.

The power of the puppet ghost is beyond doubt. It moved into the largest room 212 among the twelve rooms.

Mei Sheng was silent for a moment after hearing this. She didn't understand, but the biggest advantage of this woman was that she did more and said less.

So she nodded immediately without saying much.

Releasing the puppet ghost was just the first step. Then he said:

"If Tongguan returns to the hotel, you wait for me on the bank of the moat with a blood-stained coat on him."

"Okay, then you owe me two favors and return me two sin objects in the future."

Mei Sheng hung up the phone. Obviously, she still didn't forget that Ji Li snatched the sin object from her at the Bamboo Horse Club.

Ji Li didn't say anything, and then he called Fang Shenyan again.

In fact, Fang Shenyan's role in this mission was in the first two days. Due to time and space reasons, he had almost no room to play the highlight of the last day.

Fang Shenyan was obviously waiting for Ji Li's call, and was immediately connected.

"What's the situation?"

Ji Li sighed, told the truth, and told Fang Shenyan everything, including his plan.

Fang Shenyan fell silent, probably trying to figure out the chances of Ji Li's success.

After a moment, he said:

"Your plan is good, but the cost of such an action is not small, and the biggest loophole is that I'm afraid you can't survive the terrifying ten-minute blank period."

Ji Li took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth without lighting it.

In silence, Fang Shenyan laughed twice on the other end of the phone, leaving a message for Ji Li.

"Ji Li, there is no need to be hypocritical between you and me.

I killed people and attracted ghosts in 2000 to hold Mu Nianmei back. Isn't this the purpose of your call?"
