Weird Regulator

The end of store managers: a ten-day escape mission.

The answer lies naturally within the riddle.

This task only has a few numbers:

"Ten days, start your escape journey"

On paper, this seems to be a very simple task, even if it involves four major branches.

But the result is obvious. Of these eighteen people, only one remains.

The ten-day escape mission was an extremely special mission, and was even called "the mission closest to unsolvable" by later generations.

Because, even today, no one has found a way out.

wrong……

It’s not that no one has found a way out, it’s that they haven’t even figured out the basic logic of this task.

The so-called "escape" means that the fleeing party is of course the clerk, so the ghost must be the chasing party.

But the weird thing about this mission is that from beginning to end, the eighteen shop assistants didn't see any ghost at all.

In an unrestricted escape using the real world as the venue.

In the first nine days, under the leadership of Chen Hansheng, Wei Hu, and Wen Linghua, 18 clerks walked several places, walking on thin ice.

At this stage, there are no casualties, no ghosts, nothing.

Of course, there are three store managers in charge, and they have tried various methods to force the ghost to appear.

After all, where there is death, there is life.

But in the past nine days, no matter what methods were used to test, not only were there no ghosts, there was not even a decent attack.

The eighteen clerks lived like this until the tenth day.

However, just as the tenth day was coming to an end, half a minute before the mission time arrived.

Starting from the sixth branch, the clerks in each branch disappeared collectively.

Not attacked, but disappeared.

Suddenly, in the bustling streets with crowds of people, he disappeared without a trace.

No ghosts, no injuries, just erasure of existence.

Panic spread amid the strange deaths among a total of 18 clerks in four major branches.

They are like blind people who have lost their sight. They have no strength but no goal to resist.

In a situation where there is no dead end, no way out, no clues, and no intelligence, I don’t even know where to start thinking.

Chen Hansheng was able to survive the "Ten Days Escape" because he realized the way to survive at the last moment.

Instead, he relied on the power of the sky and the sea to resist.

Of course, Wei Hu and Wen Linghua, who are both store managers, also have the power of Tianhai.

But they did not have Chen Hansheng's complete three-time use rights, so they could not escape the erasure ending.

…

The Ten-Day Escape Mission caused an uproar as soon as it came to light.

Many resourceful people from the ten major branches gathered together to analyze this task specifically.

After many discussions, three mainstream conjectures were drawn:

The first type: the fleeing subject was wrong from the beginning.

The store clerks were the pursuers, but they lost their target and did not complete the pursuit.

Therefore, on the eve of the end of the mission, they were all erased.

But this statement is not very credible.

Because when the first deceased appeared, there was still half a minute left in the mission.

Second type: Escape is a dead end.

This argument holds that the word "escape" needs to be dismantled and analyzed.

Go on an escape journey. As soon as you start to escape, you will die.

During the ten days, no store employees were attacked or saw ghosts.

But they all practiced the action of "escape", and at the end of the mission, they turned into a dead end and died completely.

However, this statement is not reliable.

Because, how to determine the definition of "escape"? Who will identify it?

The third type: This mission is simply unsolvable.

Although this statement is the cruelest and most unreasonable, it is still a conjecture that most people agree with.

Of course, as the only survivor, Chen Hansheng is not without some ideas.

After using up the power of Tianhai three times, he finally delayed the mission time.

Just as he was teleporting back to the third branch, he vaguely saw black shadows in the sky.

At a quick glance, I didn't get much information.

But Chen Hansheng thought of an incredible conjecture:

Those dark shadows are the seventeen people who were erased.

And they may not have died, but just exist in a different way.

For example, become a true escapee...

No coincidence.

When Gu Xingjian heard about this mission, he also gave a comment or reminder:

"The key to escape in ten days is 'ten days'."

Gu Xingjian obviously got some inspiration for his life through description and analysis, but he did not go into details.

No matter how others asked, he kept silent.

At this point, the "Ten Days Escape" mission has become the biggest unsolved case in the top ten branches.

Gradually, people also understood that the difficulty of this mission had reached a height that the human brain could not reach.

…

Chen Hansheng stood in the middle of the busiest intersection in Shanming City, inconspicuous.

There was light rain in the night sky, and the crowded streets were covered with umbrellas.

Giant flashing neon billboards, lights on the walls of high-rise buildings, and streaming car lights make this dark night colorful.

The eighteen people shivering in the rain were reporting to the group to keep warm, waiting for the arrival of the task time in fear, uneasiness and expectation.

Chen Hansheng was holding a damp pipe in his mouth, independent of the eighteen people, and holding on to the time.

In ten seconds, the erasure will begin, and the first person will be Wen Linghua from the Sixth Branch.

Calculating the time, Fang Shenyan, who turned into a ghost, will arrive after Wen Linghua's "death".

Chen Hansheng kept sucking on the wet pipe, and his expression became a little nervous.

His originally dark yellow face looked weird in the surrounding neon lights, and his fingers were trembling slightly in the rain.

The ten-day escape mission was so weird that it had become the biggest shadow in Chen Hansheng's heart.

Even if it is just a fictional scene now, it is a silhouette of his life.

But……

Chen Hansheng exhaled a breath of choking white smoke, raised his head slightly and looked at the gloomy sky.

Here, it's so real.

It will even bring him back to the memories surrounded by fear and strangeness.

"Store manager, is it time?"

"Don't worry, there are still twenty seconds."

"Ms. Wen, I feel something is wrong. The joint mission of the four major branches should never end like this."

"Well...I think so too, but look at this..."

It is quite now.

has arrived.

The golden pocket watch fell to the ground, and before Wen Linghua had time to look at the time again, he suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Half a second later, she returned, her features distorted in the rain.

"Help me, store manager! Help me!"

Wen Linghua used the power of the sky and the sea to survive, but the person who asked him just now left a message asking for help and disappeared completely.

Then, one, another, and another...

Chen Hansheng was watching a show, but his hands kept shaking.

He has long stopped being afraid of ghosts, he has seen too many of them over the years.

Those ferocious, terrifying, cruel, fierce...

When the unknown becomes the known, fear ceases to exist.

But only in this mission, the inexplicable death and erasure without any reason was a new kind of horror.

He has never seen it.

When the Sixth Branch died, the dark moon in the sky was completely blocked by a white figure.

The night becomes darker, but the neon lights of the city remain the same.

After turning into a ghost, Fang Shenyan became a symbol of white terror and came to the silhouette of Chen Hansheng's life.

At the same time, he was also under the shadow of the "Ten Days Escape".

When the tobacco bag fell to the ground, the delicate jade rod broke into pieces, and the originally moist tobacco was completely extinguished.

Chen Hansheng's figure was helpless in the rain, but he insisted on raising his head and staring at the white figure in the sky.

"What was the end of store managers in the past will become the end of the world between you and me today!"
