Weird Regulator

What Mei Sheng saw was a diseased and necrotic kidney.

It was soaked in an unknown, strange-looking dark purple water, as if it were a specimen stored in formalin.

The golden water barrier stopped at this moment.

The murderer has obtained the kidney water he wanted, although the kidneys did not come from the store clerk, but the murderous water he created.

Mei Sheng stared at the female corpse on the ground and the kidney. There was not much joy on her face that the plan went well, but instead there was a strong sense of uneasiness.

She suddenly felt that everything was somewhat logical.

The use of blood jade beads as a crime object delayed the spread of the barrier until the murderous water fell off the body. This was nothing strange at first.

But Mei Sheng had an idea that came to mind for no reason - did the murderer really send the murderous water?

The murderous water fell into the hands of the clerk. Is it a mistake or another trap...

In everything, plan for failure before success.

Mei Sheng is also a very experienced clerk. She lives in the seventh branch, which is a position with the same harsh environment and fierce competition as the ninth branch.

So, with this idea in mind, she decided to make some changes to her original plan.

Just as she was thinking, the rain of blood on the roof stopped.

Among the rain curtains, Xue Tingtao appeared first. He staggered, holding on to the wall, and came closer with his face as white as paper.

The face that was full of joy for just escaping from death, with gratitude to Mei Sheng, said sincerely:

"Thank you...Thanks to you..."

Shi Man and Wei Guang came back from behind, carrying a young girl who had passed out.

Unlike Xue Tingtao's "naivety", they knew very well that what they were going to do next was the real core of the operation, so their faces were only grim.

The first half of the plan seems to have been successfully completed.

The golden water barrier ended, and after the blood rain stopped, what was left was a mess.

It stands to reason that from the perspective of the murderer, it cannot determine whether the kidney water came from the store clerk or someone else, so it has achieved its original purpose.

Shi Man shifted his gaze from Mei Sheng to the corpse on the ground. When he saw the strange and abnormal kidney, he couldn't help but shudder.

She subconsciously touched her abdomen, wondering if her kidneys would be an equally horrific sight.

"Is this...the kidney water it wants?"

"This is not the kidney water it wants, but it can't tell."

Mei Sheng did not touch the kidney water again. She pondered for a moment and then said:

"We have limited time. We have to perform a play next and need to separate two groups of people."

It’s time for the second half of the plan to begin.

Wei Guang was the first to speak, holding Hu Nuannuan's arm under his arm, and said in a deep voice:

"The people from our fourth branch must stay. This is the bait to attract the murderer."

His meaning was obvious. Mei Sheng and Hu Nuannuan of the two groups had to leave and pretend to be in ruins.

The murderer's humanity is located near the "Hao Zai Lai Hotel". It has no supernatural powers, but it has the ability to manipulate the golden and water barrier.

Therefore, before it arrives, "gold" and "water" must be kept away from each other.

The clerks at the fourth branch were supposed to be among the "dead" in the first half of the plan. They would stay inside the hotel and guard their kidneys.

Similarly, someone with outstanding abilities is also needed outside the hotel, and this person can only be Mei Sheng.

Mei Sheng did not refuse. This arrangement was undoubtedly the most reasonable. She took Hu Nuannuan from Wei Guang's side.

Also picked up were the bodies of Tian Xiaolian and Cheng Xiaoming.

These two corpses must never appear in this hotel again, especially near the fourth branch.

Before turning around and leaving, she patted the back of Wei Guang's hand and quietly left a word in his ear.

No one could hear this sentence, and no one noticed this detail, but Wei Guang's face became solemn and entangled at that moment.

However, this change of expression was too subtle. When Mei Sheng left, the others had not yet recovered.

After the crisis was resolved for a period of time, Xue Tingtao's IQ returned again, and his innocence faded and was replaced by nervousness.

"The three of us staying at the hotel are likely to come face to face with the murderer..."

Xue Tingtao was still afraid in his heart, because the murderer had both human and ghost sides, but there was actually no substantial evidence.

Even though everything that happened before provided countless supporting evidence, when he really wanted to meet him, he still couldn't help but feel worried.

Shi Man's expression was as usual. Compared with the previous situation, she understood that now was the best opportunity for the clerks.

She stepped forward and said firmly:

"I don't know what the situation at Ji Li's side is, but I think it will be worse than us. We can only succeed and not fail."

…

"Heart Fire and Kidney Water..."

Different from what was planned, Mei Sheng had already got into a taxi and drove away quickly so that he could come back to the hotel.

Hu Nuannuan was unconscious next to her and had nothing to do with the current situation.

At this time, Mei Sheng's expression was very solemn, with no expression on her face anymore, and her eyes were firmly looking at the road ahead.

Just as she had originally envisioned, she had to divide her next plan into two directions to deal with it.

The first one is that if the murderer really makes mistakes, Wei Guang and others who are left behind will continue to execute the plan.

Second, if the murderer deliberately sent out the murderous water, then all this would be a major trap.

Maybe, in the next plot, someone in the fourth branch will still die, and the murderer will get the kidney water he wants.

If this is the case, this step will be difficult to avoid.

Because even Mei Sheng couldn't guess what kind of trap the murderer had set, and how he got the kidney water from the prepared fourth branch.

Before leaving, what she said to Wei Guang was:

"The murderer may still succeed, and people will still die in your fourth branch."

With Weiguang's wisdom, he has been able to get a lot of information through this sentence and can carry out follow-up actions independently.

After the kidney water was handed over to Wei Guang, what Mei Sheng had to do was to find Ji Li.

Prepare for the worst in everything.

Once Wei Guang is unable to prevent the loss of kidney water, Ji Li's inner fire will be his last hope.

…

It's better to come to the hotel again.

Xue Tingtao had already recovered. He was walking back and forth in the corridor on the first floor, gesticulating with his hands.

"If the murderer is a human, go to Wei Guang and Shi Man; if the murderer has supernatural powers, I will use the painted ground as a prison.

The plan is simple, but...but..."

He looked across the long corridor at Wei Guang, who was sitting on the ground with his head bowed. His eyes flickered for a moment, and then he suddenly muttered:

"But...what if our plan was wrong from the beginning?"

Xue Tingtao was very smart. He began to plan a way out for himself, a plan that could still guarantee survival even under the most extreme conditions.

Shi Man took this opportunity to adjust his condition as soon as possible.

There is only the last blood jade bead left, which means that she has almost no power to resist the supernatural.

Although until now, there is a high probability that the person they have to face will be a "person".

But Shiman still didn't have the confidence in her heart. She had experienced the Gu family's aquatic wood barrier and knew how powerful and terrifying the murderer's planning ability was.

Therefore, she does not expect to really catch the murderer. She will be satisfied as long as she further digs out the murderer's information through this plan.

The last person here, Wei Guang, clenched his hands on his knees, lowered his head and covered his face, as if he was resting.

But in fact, he was trying to cover up the detailed changes in his face because he was weighing a very important and difficult matter.

"If the murderer really has an unknown trap, then the best way to prevent him from getting the kidney water is..."

Destroying the kidneys of everyone in the fourth branch, including Wei Guang himself, prevented the murderer from gathering the five elements and five internal organs!
