Chapter 534 Secret
At this time, the singer in the bar picked up the guitar again and sang a soothing ballad.
The intoxicated and comfortable atmosphere around made every customer feel comfortable.
However, the two people in the corner were talking about something too heavy and dark.
Ji Li read these two heavy words in his heart, frowned and asked:
"Hell, is it just a metaphor, or does it have actual meaning?"
Clay shook his head solemnly, and said vaguely:
"I don't know, Gu Xingjian just said this when he evaluated Li Yi in front of everyone.
He said that Li Yi was a little ghost who escaped from hell, hiding in the world and pretending to be a god.
Recently, he added that Manager Ji and Li Yi came from the same place."
The word hell has always been a synonym for the general environment of Tianhai Hotel by the staff.
It can be said that it has actual meaning, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is just a noun for venting.
In short, Gu Xingjian's evaluation of Ji Li and Li Yi must be because he knew something.
Ji Li looked at the woman singing on the stage, smoking a cigarette, and continued to ask after a while:
"Let's talk about Gu Xingjian."
In fact, Ji Li's understanding of Gu Xingjian was very shallow. He didn't know how he got to where he is today and what his identity and background were.
He once tried to search for information about this person, but in the end he found nothing.
Clay pulled the chair back to its original position, crossed his legs, and said in a relaxed manner:
"You have experienced the manager's task with him. I won't talk about his behavior.
As for his identity and background, I don't know much. I entered the branch store very late.
But according to him, he was just a playboy who played with the world and did not work properly."
Playing with the world, not working properly...
These words fall on Gu Xingjian, which makes people unimaginable.
If Gu Xingjian is just a simple rich second generation, then Ji Li will definitely find out his identity.
So, either Gu Xingjian used some means behind the scenes after entering the branch store.
Or maybe he is really not a rich second generation that ordinary people can get in touch with.
After pausing for a moment, Clay suddenly said something mysteriously:
"Now, except for Huang Banxian, there are no more staff members after the two-star hotel in the ninth branch.
But I heard Huang Banxian once let it slip and found out some secret things.
Gu Xingjian has a brother named Gu Xingzhi, who is also in the ninth branch.
And this Gu Xingzhi should have been the manager of the ninth branch!"
"Oh?"
When Ji Li heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The manager task is a watershed of a branch.
Becoming a manager not only gives you more authority, but also a step to gain stronger strength.
Except for Huang Banxian, all the old staff before the manager task died.
The fact that Gu Xingjian has a brother in the ninth branch has almost never been mentioned.
"Gu Xingzhi..."
If this news is true, then there must be a major change between the brothers Gu Xingzhi and Gu Xingjian.
It was also because of this incident that the elder brother who was supposed to be the store manager died.
On the contrary, Gu Xingjian, who had been unknown, became the store manager of the second largest branch.
"Unfortunately, there was no joint reception in the two-star hotel before.
Other branches did not know Gu Xingzhi, and all the old clerks in the store died.
It can be said that no one knows what happened between the brothers.
Except..."
Clay said this and deliberately stopped talking.
But both of them knew that Huang Banxian, the only insider, was very important.
Although it was not clear what the secret between Gu Xingjian and his brothers was, Huang Banxian must be won over.
Huang Banxian is likely to be the only chance to defeat Gu Xingjian.
But Ji Li felt a little uneasy. As Gu Xingjian's only remaining "weakness", how could Huang Banxian live so long...
"Oh, by the way, Huang Banxian came with Gu Xingjian's secret entrustment on his last mission.
He wanted to know the secret of Yu Guo.
According to Gu Xingjian's description, Yu Guo is burdened with a huge cause and effect, and the weight of this cause and effect can affect the survival of a branch."
This was the last thing Clayde told Ji Li.
Ji Li was a little caught off guard. He didn't expect Clayde to bring such a heavy intelligence.
Yu Guo's cause and effect, there is only one, which runs through his life.
But he never took this matter to heart, even though the root ghost of Tiannan College is very strong.
Yu Guo's affairs can affect the survival of a branch?
Gu Xingjian's crime is weird, and Huang Banxian is good at calculating, so it is not surprising to know Yu Guo's information.
But this evaluation is too high.
For the first time, Ji Li seriously raised the weight of the Tiannan Drama Academy.
"Which branch?"
"I don't know which one, he just described it that way.
Besides, Gu Xingjian has already succeeded."
Clay recounted the whole story from beginning to end.
In the last mission, Yu Guo's second half of his body was Duan Shisan from the ninth branch.
After the mission, he went back to the branch and regenerated his original body.
But his body that "died" on the suburban highway was taken away by Huang Banxian.
Using the method of returning the soul with incense, the movement trajectory of Yu Guo's body was reproduced.
Finally, a place name was obtained: Tiannan Drama Academy.
With a place name, everything is naturally available.
After all, with the method of the Ninth Branch, it is too easy to see if there are ghosts in a place.
Hearing this, Ji Li still couldn't figure out what Gu Xingjian was going to do.
But his goal was also very simple. He couldn't let him succeed, at least he had to hinder him.
"Is there a list of employees in the Ninth Branch?"
Clay knew what Ji Li was going to do, so he opened his phone and sent Ji Li an email.
Ji Li looked at the list full of names and introductions, took out his phone, and made a call.
Even though it was late at night, the other side quickly answered.
"Teacher Fang, there is an emergency.
Tiannan Drama Academy has been targeted by Gu Xingjian from the Ninth Branch, and I'm afraid something bad is going to happen.
I'll send you a list of the Ninth Branch. Only the people on this list have appeared near Tiannan Academy recently.
Kill them one by one.
If Gu Xingjian uses supernatural means, you will also be responsible for eliminating him."
"Yes."
The person on the other end of the phone simply answered and hung up.
Ji Li frowned, and he was reviewing the affairs of Tiannan Drama Academy.
All the affairs of Clyde had been said, and he could finally drink and enjoy music leisurely.
Ji Li raised his wrist and glanced at it. It was already a little after five o'clock in the morning, and the time was almost up.
He stood up, intending to leave, and asked Clyde:
"Would you like to go to Zhenjing Daoyuan with me?"
Clyde held the bottle of wine, shrank back in his chair exaggeratedly, and said in fear:
"Manager Ji, please forgive me, I know enough secrets.
I almost offended Gu Xingjian, I don't want to offend another one."
After Ji Li glanced at him, he no longer had any attachment to this place, and walked quickly towards the main entrance of the bar.
Before leaving, he heard Clyde shouting:
"Tell the teacher Fang you mentioned that if you meet Jiang Xi, please show mercy, she is my Chinese teacher."
