Chapter 16: A Strategy
The open windows bring in the biting cold wind.
Ji Li's hair was slightly chaotic and his eyes were deep. The short five words echoed in the room, but they carried some irresistible magic.
The moment this sentence appeared, Cao Yuan's originally weak body trembled!
His throat choked, tears almost flowed out, and he stretched out his hands and grabbed Ji Li's trouser legs.
"Brother Ji... Save me, your experience is richer than that of us. As long as you say, I am willing to do it!"
Ji Li nodded expressionlessly, a smile appeared slightly on the corner of his mouth, and leaned over to help Cao Yuan up.
"You have heard everything we said just now.
The truth is very close, and I have a rough guess, but it is just a rough guess."
Ji Li's voice was very light, and Cao Yuan didn't hear it very clearly, but he still asked blankly: "What is the way to live?"
"I am mostly sure that the man in the raincoat is the key person we always want to look for, the sixth person to fill the gap!"
As soon as these words were said, everyone present was shocked.
Fang Shenyan frowned and pondered without saying a word, but his face changed several times.
Yu Guo touched his chin, thought about it secretly, and then nodded. Judging from the current situation, this possibility is the highest.
After all, except them, there is only a man in the raincoat.
Moreover, the situation of being forced to face ghosts is similar to the situation of the clerks.
Although Cao Yuan is not smart enough, he is not stupid either. Ji Li is very clear about what he said.
Moreover, when he took the time, he was also paying attention to Fang and Yu and the others' performance. Seeing the changes in their faces, he was basically convinced of the authenticity of Ji Li's words.
Thinking of this, he asked tentatively: "Brother Ji, what are you talking about in life?"
Ji Li took a deep breath and said word by word:
"The man in the raincoat has two identities in this mission: one is the executive clerk, and the other is the special significance to the female ghost!
Why can he get close to the female ghost, but he is not hurt at all!"
Cao Yuan lowered his head and his eyes rolled drippingly, then blurted out: "Can it be..."
Ji Li quickly took over the conversation: "That's right! He will not be attacked by female ghosts!
So if we meet with him and everyone is in the same position, can we avoid the attack of the female ghost, and thus delay until dawn to successfully complete the task!"
When Yu Guo heard this, he stroked the hand between his hair and twitched it and pulled off a handful of his hair.
Then he looked at Fang Shenyan and nodded in unison.
But when he looked at Ji Li's back, he felt puzzled.
"But the man in the raincoat is outside the 701 mission location. Fang Shenyan just hit him hard, so it is impossible for him to come in to find us..."
Cao Yuan’s problem was something that Fang and Yu couldn’t figure out.
But Ji Li smiled slightly: "We were all deceived by the email information posted by the hotel."
Then, in the shocked eyes of several people, he took out the mobile phone sent by the hotel and turned on the email.
"Look, the task information given by the hotel actually has a text trap.
‘Please arrive at Room 701, Unit 4, Building 2, Sanhe Community, before 8 pm on October 22, 2015.
Surviving until 8 o'clock the next morning is counted as completing the task and receiving new residents.’
This task information is divided into two sections.
The first paragraph shows that we must arrive at Room 701 before 8 pm.
However, the conditions for completion are in the second line, and the requirement is to survive until 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.
The content between the two paragraphs is related, but there is ambiguity.
The first possibility is that there is only one requirement:
We must stay in room 701 until 8 o'clock tomorrow; but there is another possibility. This task information is actually divided into two requirements:
Arrived in room 701 before 8 pm and lived until 8 o'clock tomorrow morning!
And this possibility does not mean that we must stay overnight at 701!"
"hiss……"
Everyone took a breath after hearing what Ji Li said.
Although it sounds obscure, it is not difficult to understand.
There is ambiguity in the task information this time and can be divided into two possibilities.
One is that the mission location is limited to 701; the other is that you only need to arrive at 701 before 8 o'clock in the evening, and then you don't care where you go, just live past 8 o'clock tomorrow morning!
If you think about it this way, then things are likely to have a huge contrast and turning point!
But the second possibility corresponds to the current situation.
If the man in the raincoat is really the sixth person to make up for the gap, then he is away from 701, and the statement is valid.
As for why he never entered 701, perhaps it was because the task information he received was different from Ji Li and others.
Ji Li coughed gently, and he looked at Cao Yuan and said:
"I believe that the man in the raincoat has an 80% chance of being the sixth clerk. The task he received is different from us, but there must be one.
It is within the specified time, and you must return to 702!
So I'm sure he is still in this building at this moment!
The way I give you is to leave 701 to find the man in the raincoat, and then follow him without leaving any steps!
If he has a special identity and can be immune to ghost attacks, then you will definitely survive this mission!"
Ji Li said this, paused slightly, and then said:
“But I am not sure about the two possibilities of the mission location as I thought.
If I guess wrong, then the moment you leave 701, you will be turned into ashes due to violation of the rules.
I have not concealed any of the pros and cons of this plan to inform you of all the pros and cons of it, and the right to decide is within you.
But you don’t have much time to think about it. The next attack is coming in a flash, and you will most likely become a priority target.”
Ji Li finished speaking. On the surface, he did not hide anything.
The speculation about Shenglu is reasonable, and the guesswork about the rules of the task location also confesses both possibilities, and seems to have handed everything to Cao Yuan.
but……
Cao Yuan's face was gloomy and calm. After about a while of silence, he suddenly sneered.
The blood-covered eyes looked at Fang Shenyan and Yu Guo, and finally frozen on Ji Li's face.
"select…
Do I have any choice…”
Ji Li didn't say anything, but just looked at him expressionlessly.
Cao Yuan became his test subject, a guinea pig who tried to test the way of life, but this was not a conspiracy, but an open conspiracy.
While he spoke out this plan, he had already predicted that Cao Yuan could not refuse.
Should I die immediately or try my best on the basis of hope...
There is no doubt that Cao Yuan can only choose the latter.
Cao Yuan took a few deep breaths on the spot, then covered his chest with messy steps, but with determination, he walked towards the door of 701.
Ji Li looked at his back and stopped talking, but his eyes were so cold that they were scary.
Fang Shenyan and Yu Guo walked up at this time, side by side with Ji Li, and watched Cao Yuan leave.
"I hope he can survive, that means your life is right."
But Ji Li shook her head slightly, and a trace of extreme cold flashed across her pale face:
Chapter completed!
