A ghost storyteller can lose his life but cannot lose his job

Chapter 94 Holy Light will grant me victory!

Wang Youyou's words were shocking, and everyone else present fell into varying degrees of silence. Wang Youyou knew nothing about it, and just scratched his head in confusion and hid behind Lin Youlan.

It didn't understand why the secret energy it harvested this time was so abundant, enough to provide a month's food.

What surprised Wang Youyou even more was that after telling this secret, it even became a little stronger. According to what its owner Lanlan had told it, it should have been upgraded.

"This little guy can read minds? But this news is not very exciting. We all know that Miss Xia likes Brother Shen." Baimao reacted, but did not show much abnormality. He looked at Xia Shuyue, "Sister, you are good at math. What does this back and forth mean?"

"It's meaningless." Xia Shuyue was relieved when she saw that Baimao didn't understand what "guidance" meant, and said seriously.

Those who understood did not ask questions intentionally to embarrass Xia Shuyue. They just thought more highly of her in their hearts and kept the secret as "she likes him" rather than "she guides guide guide".

Lin Youlan explained and apologized to Xia Shuyue immediately, because Wang Youyou was only a few days old and had almost no mental ability, only the instincts of a baby animal. After learning the mind-reading method from Lin Youlan, it began to trigger randomly.

Xia Shuyue just smiled peacefully, and gently took Shen Junyi's arm, indicating that this little thing was not a secret. Anyone could see that she was pursuing him, and in a direct way.

However, Lin Youlan was still a little confused after the explanation. According to Xia Shuyue, it was obvious that she liked him, so why could Wang Youyou collect so much secret energy?

Lin Youlan is Lin Youlan. If she can't figure it out, she just doesn't want to think about it anymore. Instead, she wants to challenge this team. Then she sees Lao Qin coming back.

"Zhong Xie, Shen Junyi, you two bring your teams over here." Lao Qin waved at the two of them, turned around and left the training ground first.

Zhong Xie, Shen Junyi and others followed immediately, only Lin Youlan was a little slower because she had another question in her mind.

I guess I'm the captain, right?

Lao Qin brought a few people to a secluded place, pulled out a video from his mobile phone and placed it in front of Zhong Xie and Shen Junyi.

The time in the video is late at night, and the location is an empty street with no one.

A young man was kneeling on the ground, and his roar of pain echoed throughout the street.

"Please, let me play one last time! Just one last time, this time I will definitely be able to make back the money I owe you."

"Don't leave me here, give me another chance, please!"

The video was a bit confusing, but Zhong Xie and Shen Junyi both noticed the first feature of this young man.

The man's hands were round and without any fingers, like Doraemon's white bun hands.

No fingers?

Zhong Xie stared at the man's hands, and combined with what the man had just said, he immediately had an association in his mind.

This man looks exactly like a gambler who has lost everything, and he has no fingers.
Finger pinball machine in the female beast's lair?
"Finger pinball machine?" Shen Junyi whispered his judgment, then looked at Zhong Xie.

Zhong Xie also nodded, his expression becoming serious. He never thought that he would see the whereabouts of the Finger Pinball Machine in such a place.

"Where does this video come from?" Zhong Xie asked Lao Qin.

Seeing that Zhong Xie and the other two had successfully identified it, Lao Qin nodded slightly and said, "You have indeed seen something similar."

After Zhong Xie and Lin Youlan came back from Wangcheng, they made a relatively detailed report on the contents. Lin Youlan did not mention it at all, but Zhong Xie mentioned it briefly.

The Finger Pinball Machine is a level in the female beast's lair, and the reward is the Nest Ball.

When Lao Qin got this video today, he immediately thought of Zhong Xie’s Wangcheng report, so he brought Zhong Xie and Shen Junyi who had participated in the Wangcheng trip.

As for Lin Youlan, since she didn't mention such a thing in her report at all, it was probably because this incident didn't leave any impression on her at all, so Lao Qin didn't even bother to ask her.

Lao Qin said seriously, "In the past week, there have been hundreds of disappearances in various parts of Haicheng. The locations of these disappearances are not dense, and there are often some special events to help cover them up, including but not limited to 'owing loan sharks', 'encountering ghost stories', 'suicide due to depression', etc. There is not much commonality, so it was not until now that there were suddenly many 'fingered wanderers' in Haicheng that they were taken seriously."

He continued: "From the videos that are circulating now, it seems that these missing people were taken to a special space where they were engaged in gambling-related activities until all their fingers were lost and then thrown back."

"Is it just the fingers that are missing? I remember that the coin slot of the game machine seemed to be able to fit the ghost head?"

Zhong Xie seemed to be thinking about something, and his words were quite direct.

"Well, we didn't find any injuries on the genitals of these vagrants." Lao Qin was a little surprised, but still answered truthfully.

"In short, let us investigate this matter? Do you trust us so much?" Zhong Xie could almost guess Lao Qin's intention of calling them over, but he couldn't guess why Lao Qin dared to do so.

With such a large number of missing persons and such a wide range of involvement, it is no longer something that newcomers like them who haven't even passed the ghost story gradient certificate exam can get involved in, right?

"Well... probably since yesterday, a T1-level ghost storyteller has been dispatched to assist in the investigation. He is more adept at dealing with this kind of mess, but he gave a response this morning."

Qin Mian called up the information in the work group and read it out: "I can't get into that damn place, you guys try to find some low-level ghost stories."

Limit the level of ghost stories?

Isn't this a weird story tailor-made for me?
Zhong Xie's eyes suddenly lit up. He had finally waited for this type of strange incident, which was vaguely related to the female beast's nest. How could he not be excited?
"Well, if you are willing to participate in the operation, please come with me to the office to sign a waiver. This operation is full of unknown factors and is very dangerous. I hope you will consider it carefully."

After saying that, Lao Qin glanced at Zhong Xie meaningfully and said, "But you'd better make a decision as soon as possible. There are many young ghost storytellers eyeing this job. This time, it's because you three are involved in this incident that we're giving you priority."

Zhong Xie looked at Lao Qin, then at Shen Junyi, and suddenly realized: "Oh - this is the 'entry into the world' that Shen Junyi is preparing for, right?"

He turned around and looked at Jiang Shuran and Zhang Zitai: "Come on, both of you come with us. This is a lucrative job that we can only get because of Shen Junyi's face."

Shen Junyi turned his face slightly when Zhong Xie said this. He was able to face the fact that he had privileges, but he still felt a little embarrassed by what Zhong Xie said.

Jiang Shuran and Zhang Zitai looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Even people with a weak political sense can feel that this strange incident is of extraordinary significance. Taking advantage of Shen Junyi's momentum to resolve this matter will be of great benefit to the future of strange stories.

As long as the problem can be solved, this will be the beginning of the war zone allocating resources to them personally, and as a ghost story master, it is something they cannot refuse.

As for the other three people in Shen Junyi's team, there is no problem at all, because they just follow Brother Shen's lead.

When I arrived at Lao Qin's office, he had already printed out the relevant disclaimer. The significance of this thing was not that the war zone wanted to distance itself from these dangerous weirdos, but that the school of the "May Plan" needed to cut off ties with them.

Normally, all the school's ghost story teaching activities will ensure the safety of the students. This is written in the enrollment agreement, but in this situation, Zhong Xie and others took the initiative to take risks. If something happens, it will not be related to the school, but the war zone will directly compensate. After signing the statement, Xia Shuyue quietly walked to Zhong Xie's side, and when no one else noticed this, she whispered: "I heard that you have a photo of Yi Ge'er? Can I exchange this thing with you?"

She took out something that looked like a scope from her pocket and quickly stuffed it into Zhong Xie's pocket.

Zhong Xie reached into his pocket and stroked the thing, and immediately relevant strange information appeared in his mind.

-

██'s Scope
Effect: When mounted on a Bow, Crossbow, or Gun type monster, it helps increase its range and design accuracy.

Note: This scope has an unknown origin, and has been handed down from generation to generation. Those who have used it say it is good, but they always feel that the trajectory is biased to the left. If other accessories can be collected, perhaps its origin can be known.

Some rare ghost story props can be installed in the ghost story and used, playing an auxiliary role and helping the ghost story to comprehend the entries related to the props' abilities.

After a ghost story comprehends the relevant entries, the prop is no longer of much use to the ghost story, so this kind of prop can often be circulated among several ghost story users, which is somewhat similar to a "skill learning machine".

"Brother Yi said you have a strange gun. You must need this thing." Xia Shuyue said quietly, "How is it? Can you give me the photo?"

Zhong Xie did not reply, but looked at Xia Shuyue's other pocket, which seemed to be stuffed with something and was bulging.

Although this Beijing-made scope was very suitable, Mouse's instinct to compare prices took over, and he still wanted to see Xia Shuyue's inventory.

"These things are not prepared for you. There is also a hand guard, tooth powder and screen protector, which are all props for ghost stories, but you can't use them." Xia Shuyue immediately explained to Zhong Xie, and then urged, "Hurry up and decide. Once Shen Junyi notices this, we won't be able to exchange."

"Wait, add me as your friend and I'll send it to you." Zhong Xie agreed immediately and felt that Xia Shuyue was much more pleasing to the eye.

I thought this toxic young lady would be difficult to deal with, but I didn't expect her to be so easy to deal with.

Not only were exchange props prepared for him, but also for Lin Youlan and others.

Needless to say, this hand guard, tooth powder and screen protector are naturally perfectly suitable for Lin Youlan, Jiang Shuran and Zhang Zita.

She had learned about their team in advance and prepared some strange props for "exchanging benefits".

With this kind of thinking, you can succeed in anything.

"Eh...is this photo of his sister?" Xia Shuyue was a little dazed for a moment after receiving the beautiful photo of Shen Junyi sent by Zhong Xie.

She murmured, "Yes, I can't remember what his sister looks like, but when I saw the photo, I remembered everything."

"What does his sister look like?" Zhong Xie glanced at the picture, thinking, and then asked, "Is she dead?"

Xia Shuyue nodded: "How do you know?"

Zhong Xie shook his head: "Then you don't have much of a chance. This guy is probably a serious sister complex."

He finally understood the reasons for the changes in Shen Junyi. He originally thought that he was a seeker after women, but he didn't expect that he was actually a man with a terminal sister complex.

Under normal circumstances, his sister would have just slapped him a few times and gotten over it, but now that his sister has passed away, there is really no cure for this heart disease.

"Am I... really hopeless?" Xia Shuyue's expression darkened. If someone else said this, she would not believe it at all, but Zhong Xie's position in Shen Junyi's heart was obviously special.

Zhong Xie touched his chin and said, "Not necessarily. I think you and him look like a good couple. Let me put some makeup on you. Maybe I can save the situation."

Substitute literature is also literature, and marriage first and love later is also love. In any case, Zhong Xie strictly abides by national policies and cracks down on any possibility of ghost marriage.

Xia Shuyue's eyes lit up again, and she looked at Zhong Xie with hope in her eyes.

"Good." Zhong Xie nodded and added another rule to his daily rule of doing good deeds.

After signing, Lao Qin looked at the time and said, "Wait a moment. You are the main body of this operation, but you will have support. Just follow him later."

Not long after, a yellow-haired man descended from the sky, his body passed through the glass and appeared in the office, and he mechanically greeted everyone:

"Hello."

"Hello."

(Nine times in a row)
The yellow-haired man looked to be about thirty years old, with a young and handsome face, and the appearance of a sunny and cheerful boy.

These nine consecutive "Hello"s made several people present feel confused, but no one asked and just looked at Lao Qin.

No, why doesn't this guy say "hello"?
"A Tier 1 Tales Master, codenamed 'Dirty Pastor', is cursed in a special Tales world, so he can only use a few words to express his inner thoughts." Lao Qin explained, and then recalled, "Among them are 'hello', 'sorry', and 'wow~'. So just now he couldn't say 'hello', he could only say 'hello' continuously."

The yellow-haired dirty shepherd beside him nodded, then smiled again, looking amiable, and then he raised his right hand high: "Holy Light will grant me victory!"

"Well, this sentence should be meant to boost your morale." Lao Qin guessed what Zang Mu meant, and then said with a smile, "You can try to communicate more with him later, and you will definitely benefit a lot. This time, Zang Mu played a great role in the recovery of Wangcheng."

Zang Mu patted Lao Qin on the shoulder, looking familiar, and said lightly: "Wow~"

But when he turned his head, he suddenly noticed that one of the young ghost story tellers was staring at him. That look made him, a veteran, feel cold in the broad daylight.

It was you who caused Miss Black Goat to be arrested, right?

I have an irreconcilable feud with you!

No, think about it carefully, what would I do without you?

If there hadn't been the incident in Wangcheng, Kuster would have always been Miss Black Goat's husband.

Zhong Xie retracted his gaze and instantly put on an intimate look, which frightened Zang Mu, who was able to see through people's minds.

how……

Have a bad feeling?
Forget it, the ghost stories that appear in Haicheng shouldn’t be too difficult to deal with. After all, this is not the home of “ghost stories”.

　I applied a plaster today and I feel a little better. That’s it for now. I’ll update twice a day tomorrow. QAQ
