Weird Regulator

The wind on the other end of the phone was getting louder and louder, and the strange woman just cried after saying this.

The heart-wrenching crying made people feel very uncomfortable.

Ji Li was silent.

He hardly knew any outsiders. This woman came so unexpectedly, but she told him his name in one word.

Then there is only one possibility, she is related to the upcoming mission.

My thoughts return to those key and strange five words:

"The Seventh Spirit Detection Station"

Ji Li took a puff of cigarette and waved to the female voice, signaling her to leave.

Then he replied in a calm tone: "How did you learn my name?"

The crying on the other end of the phone gradually stopped, and the woman said in a hoarse voice:

"I found your flyer at the end of the street.

Aren't you a firm that investigates supernatural incidents? "

Ji Li's mind moved, and it was indeed what he thought.

A call from a woman heralds the beginning of the next mission.

The next mission of their seventh branch is called the "Seventh Spirit Detection Station".

Its members should be characters similar to supernatural detectives, dedicated to detecting mysterious events.

And he, the store manager, was called the detective.

After confirming this, Ji Li no longer had any further resistance to women, but became very interested.

"You have found the right person, so what type of services do you want to consult?"

Ji Li has been away from society for a long time, but he definitely watches movies and TV series, especially suspense movies.

Among them are films about detectives, so the relevant language skills are naturally familiar.

But this time the silent person was the strange woman.

In the silence, it seemed that the sound of wind and crying had disappeared, leaving only nothingness.

But the call was not hung up. Ji Li frowned. He was a little confused as to what happened to the other party.

After waiting for a minute, Ji Li glanced at the screen again suspiciously.

The unfamiliar number was still showing calls, but it was too quiet.

Ji Li tentatively asked again:

"Ma'am, are you still there?"

However, when he asked this question, the mechanical hang-up tone sounded.

The call was completely hung up amidst Ji Li's further probing.

Ji Li's gray eyes were full of confusion, and he looked at the dead phone quietly, not knowing how to understand it.

A strange woman called for help in the middle of the night, naming the role he would play in the next mission, but it was interrupted without any further instructions.

What Ji Li is sure of is that this is not Tianhai Hotel's decision to terminate the call out of rules to prevent clues from being exposed in advance.

It was the woman who hung up the phone herself.

Of course, there may be another possibility, that is, she was killed.

Unfortunately, across the communication distance, Ji Li had no idea what had happened to her.

And why would you turn to a "paranormal detective agency" for help?

In this day and age, if you have not personally experienced a supernatural event, or have been forced into desperation,

Who would believe the ridiculous ghost search house advertised at the end of the street?

This call, from its absurd beginning to its hasty ending, was so weird.

Ji Li took back his cell phone and slowly walked back to the chair where he usually sat on the first floor for the familiar vigil.

He slowly closed his eyes, his thoughts never stopped, and he kept thinking about it.

…

The pointer on the wall moved to three o'clock.

In the bedroom, a man was sleeping soundly with his legs spread out from the quilt.

He was probably very tired and his saliva was soaking the pillowcase.

And then, his head suddenly began to tremble involuntarily, followed by a sharp pain.

The man frowned in pain, the shock and severe pain quickly woke him up from his sleep.

Finally, he no longer had the chance to immerse himself in the sweet dream, and sat upright on the bed with a start.

After his eyes were dull for a moment, his mouth formed an "O" shape and he immediately got down and hugged his thighs.

"Holy shit, I'm cramping! I'm cramping!"

After bouncing on the spot twice, he focused his attention on the pillow.

There was the source of the shock: there was a phone call.

The man glanced at the time and couldn't help but feel angry. He jumped back to the bedside and cursed:

"Who is so unethical if you don't sleep at three o'clock in the middle of the night?"

When he picked up the phone, he didn't recognize the number of an acquaintance.

He hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to answer, but his tone sounded angry:

"Who am I talking about? If you have something to do, can't you call me tomorrow? Why are you..."

But slowly, he could no longer complain.

Because there's a woman on the other end of the phone.

She said some weird things...

The man, wearing only shorts, shuddered, then grabbed the phone and rushed out of the room.

…

"Ji Li! Where have you gone? Something happened!"

Ji Li, who had been on the first floor for several hours, was enjoying the tranquility when suddenly there was a noise upstairs.

This made him frown slightly and said coldly:

"I'm on the first floor."

Not long after, Yu Guo appeared in front of him, wearing only underwear and clutching his cell phone, with a nervous look on his face.

When he saw Ji Li, he breathed a sigh of relief and complained:

"Why do you stay up all night and sit on the first floor, looking at the door?"

Ji Li calmly grabbed the cigarette case on the table, glanced at the naked body, and said flatly:

"Looking at the gate is better than running around naked in the middle of the night."

Yu Guo was about to fight back, but when he thought of what happened just now, he knew that business was more important, so he explained:

"Aren't I anxious? A strange woman called me just now.

He said he was looking for the Seventh Spirit Detective Agency and asked me if I was an agent there.

The tone was dry and the voice was as cold as a female ghost. I was in a daze of sleep and I still haven't recovered.

But then I thought about it, isn’t the Seventh Spirit Detection Station the Seventh Branch..."

Yu Guo still couldn't get rid of his habit of talking too much, but Ji Li didn't interrupt him this time.

Holding a cigarette in his mouth, he conscientiously extracted what happened from Yu Guo's messy information.

Like him, Yu Guo received a late-night call for help from a woman.

But there are similarities and differences.

They all threatened to look for the Seventh Spirit Detective Agency, and they all got their contact information from the advertising flyer at the end of the street.

And they always ended with the other party hanging up after they asked what happened.

It can be said that what happened is exactly the same.

However, the woman who called Ji Li was in grief and had lost the ability to control her emotions;

The woman who called Yu Guo was so sensible and calm that she didn't look like a living person.

It wasn't until Ji Li completely refined the key points that Yu Guo hadn't finished speaking.

Ji Li couldn't help it, this matter was definitely no small matter.

As long as you receive a call for help, you will most likely be the person to perform the next mission.

Ji Li is the first and Yu Guo is the second, so there must be more people who will receive the call.

He had to listen to the caller's voice to determine whether the calls were made by the same person.

Thinking of this, Ji Li tapped the table, interrupted Yu Guo's speech, and said to the ceiling:

"Call all the store staff for me and come to the conference room to meet in five minutes.

People who are not in the branch are in contact with each other, and no matter what happens to them, they must return at full speed. "

Happy New Year's Eve, I wish you all are as prosperous as Yu Guo and have new underwear to wear every day!
