Chapter 533 Poisonous

After singing a song, the young woman on the stage put down her guitar and took out her phone from her pocket to play.

The music in the bar was changed to piano music, so that most people's eyes were no longer focused on the stage.

I have to say that Clyde has a good eye for choosing a place.

Ji Li felt a relaxation that he had not experienced for a long time. He lit a cigarette and leaned back in his chair, saying softly:

"Let's talk about business. What do you want to tell me?"

Clyde put down his wine glass, the smile on his face disappeared, and he moved his chair towards Ji Li, lowering his voice and said:

"The ninth branch has rotted and is completely controlled by Gu Xingjian alone.

He is too powerful, so powerful that he can kill everyone in the branch with just one sentence.

I don't care whether he has this plan or not, but he must leave himself a way out.

I want him to die!"

Clyde was very cautious when he said these words, and even a little nervous, but the anger in his tone obviously overshadowed these.

"The sooner he dies, the better, otherwise the ninth branch will become his sacrifice."

Anger comes from fear.

Ten branches, ten store managers, countless store clerks.

All branches, even the most special first branch, have a basic rule.

The store manager represents the strength, reputation, and wisdom of the branch.

But there is no fundamental difference between them and the store clerks under them.

It is nothing more than the cohesion of people's hearts and the weight of words.

The ninth branch, on the surface, is nothing special.

The store manager Gu Xingjian has six core members and more than 30 ordinary store clerks.

This is a normal configuration for a three-star hotel.

But Gu Xingjian crossed the line.

More than half of the store clerks in the ninth branch were sent sin objects by him.

The sin objects cannot be concentrated on one person, which is nothing in itself, and it is normal even if other branches do this.

So, no one took it seriously, as usual.

But things started with Clyde, and things became wrong.

Clyde was still a newcomer at the beginning. He survived by his own ability, but he was not qualified to snatch the sin objects.

At that time, when Gu Xingjian gave him the square mirror, he was still grateful.

Gradually, he found that the price of this sin object was too much for a living person to bear.

It is not that there is no sin object with a permanent price. Clyde always thought that this was what he should bear.

But in the last mission, Huang Banxian's words made him realize that there seemed to be another explanation for the matter.

Huang Banxian actually said that as long as Clyde helped him complete the private affairs entrusted by Gu Xingjian, he could help him alleviate the price.

Simply speaking, this is not a big deal.

But the more Clyde thought about it, the more he felt that it was wrong. The sin object was sent by Gu Xingjian, and the price Gu Xingjian could help alleviate.

Think about Huang Banxian again.

Huang Fengjiao, who was supported by Gu Xingjian and loyal, how many private affairs did she do for Gu Xingjian?

Clyde, timidly thought of a word:

"Control".

Gu Xingjian, using sin objects to control the clerks of the ninth branch.

Thinking deeper, Gu Xingjian can solve the price of sin objects, but the sin objects were originally sent out by him.

So, have these sent sin objects been tampered with by him long ago?

This matter is too terrible.

Those tampered criminal objects are spread throughout the Ninth Branch like drugs.

Gu Xingjian alone holds the fate of more than half of the employees in his hands, and it is still expanding.

But the temptation of the criminal objects is too great.

No one can resist, and everyone will be corrupted until they become Gu Xingjian's puppets numbly.

What will be the end of these people?

As a wise man, Clay saw it clearly.

So he took the first step to get rid of Gu Xingjian's control and found Ji Li.

Ji Li listened to Clay's words silently, without any ups and downs in his heart.

He had guessed about Gu Xingjian long ago. This person not only calculated the ten major branches, but also tried to compete with Tianhai Hotel.

So it was not surprising that a mere Ninth Branch was held in his palm.

From the moment Gu Xingjian stretched out his hand to him, he knew that the two were destined to not coexist.

He took a puff of cigarette, slowly looked at Clayde who was frowning and lowering his head, shook his head slightly and said only two words:

"Very difficult."

Clayde didn't feel anything after hearing this, which was the right reaction.

Killing Gu Xingjian was very difficult.

It was even daunting.

I'm afraid his fear was even greater than the threat posed by the ghost.

But the fact that his fate was in the hands of others forced him to take this step.

"This is a long process, we have to do it step by step.

We need to keep in touch secretly. I will give you the information about Gu Xingjian and wait for an opportunity."

Clayde was cautious enough. He would not take the initiative to investigate Gu Xingjian, otherwise he might die earlier.

He looked up at Ji Li and said softly:

"In fact, you have already planned it, right?"

Ji Li nodded and asked:

"What did Huang Fengjiao do after she went back?"

Huang Banxian was different from Clayde. He was deeply poisoned, but from the double interference of Clayde and Ji Li in the last mission.

Huang Banxian should have some changes in his mentality.

Clyde reached out and poured himself a glass of wine, and whispered:

"This charlatan has not shown anything, but he boasted in the branch about how powerful he was in the last mission.

And he has been hiding from me, seemingly afraid of being exposed by me, but actually worried that I would find out the flaw.

But this situation shows that he has begun to waver."

Although Huang Banxian and Clayde always quarrel with each other, they actually have the best relationship.

Clayde and Ji Li both said that "the sinful object is poisonous", and he couldn't help but take it seriously.

This is also Ji Li's goal. He wants to disintegrate the ninth branch and force a group of people led by Huang Banxian and Clayde to defect from the ninth branch.

Clayde breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and said:

"To kill Gu Xingjian, we need the right time, the right place, and the right people.

We have to wait for the right time, the right place, and the only thing we can control is the right people.

The right people are divided into two stages.

The first step is to win over as many people as possible to resist him;

The second step is external forces.

The first step is difficult enough, and the second step is even more..."

Clayde looked at Ji Li in embarrassment, and he didn't say it clearly.

In fact, Ji Li is not worthy of being Gu Xingjian's opponent now.

"We need the first branch, or even more."

Ji Li is not very interested in how to kill Gu Xingjian. He changed the subject and asked:

"Why did you come to me?"

In fact, Ji Li never showed much hostility to Gu Xingjian from beginning to end. Clay's move was a risky move.

He even thought that Clay would die in Gu Xingjian's hands sooner or later.

Perhaps he knew this himself, but he still took this step.

Clay pulled his chair to Ji Li again after hearing this, and the distance between the two was very close.

"Because Gu Xingjian once said that you and Li Yi came from the same place.

If you really want to get rid of him, it's either you or Li Yi.

But I pessimistically think that maybe both of you have to participate to succeed."

When he heard this, Ji Li's face, which had never changed, changed a little.

Gu Xingjian said a lot during the store manager mission, but the sentence that impressed him the most was:

"Ji Li and Li Yi are both products of that thing."

Gu Xingjian has many secrets, and he knows too many things, including the deep layers of Tianhai.

Ji Li narrowed his eyes and asked quietly:

"Where is that place?"

Clay's voice was not loud, but every word was unforgettable and weighed heavily:

"Hell."
