Chapter 278: Everyone with their own ulterior motives
"Deputy store manager, do you think something is wrong?"
The Naihe Bridge is very long, and Du Xiyue walked very slowly. She kept moving closer to Shi Dalu and asked softly while the people around her were not paying attention.
Shi Dalu seems to be a simple-minded fool with all kinds of limbs, but how could he be able to take up the position of deputy store manager and be incompetent?
The fifth branch, the mission of being promoted to two stars, was not as strong as the current seventh branch.
Before that mission was completed, only Li Congrong and Shi Dalu were left.
In the end, they fought with the tacit cooperation of the two, and even Shi Dalu personally performed the life, confronting the ghost head-on, and then digging out the trace of vitality in the desperate situation.
Shi Dalu is indeed inferior to Li Congrong in his mind, but he has made countless contributions with his courage to kill and fight.
But such a person has a great weakness.
One word: "greed"
Greedy in sin, greed for merit, greed for status... He is greedy for everything in the fifth branch, but when he becomes the deputy store manager, what else can he be greedy for?
One is the sin, and the other is the store manager!
Therefore, Shi Dalu, the deputy store manager who once made great contributions to the rise of the fifth branch, chose to trade with the first branch.
During the store manager's mission, Li Congrong's crime was replaced, causing him to almost die in the "Dead Valley".
But unfortunately, Li Congrong took off a "dead man" soft armor in desperate situation and became the most eye-catching dark horse in that mission.
Not only did he not die, but he relied on the double evil spirits of black soft armor and prosthetic eyes to completely rise, and his voice shocked the top ten branches.
Therefore, such a person can naturally detect some unusual smell, even earlier than Du Xiyue noticed it.
Shi Dalu climbed up with a sneer on his dark face, looked behind without any trace, and said:
"Two store managers...what do you think Li Congrong will trade with Ji Li?"
"I'm worried that Li Congrong will attack us!"
As a woman, Du Xiyue is also more sensitive. She is the first clerk to know that all the current fifth branch are involved in the first branch.
But she herself was weak, and Qiu Xue seemed to be standing on Li Congrong's side again. Lang Qing, a fence-bearer, could not count on him, so she could only seek to join forces with Shi Dalu.
Shi Dalu nodded. He colluded with the first branch as a deputy store manager, so he naturally obtained more information than Du Xiyue.
"But he can't bite so many bones, and he will break his teeth."
"That's why he came to Ji Li!" Du Xiyue was obviously very afraid of Ji Li, and recounted all the social interactions she and Ji Li along the way.
This made Shi Dalu feel unhappy. He glanced at Du Xiyue coldly and said:
"Give others ambition! I have checked that there are no strong sins around this store manager Ji, except for the blood-red coffin!"
"Blood-red coffin..." Du Xiyue also attached great importance to this coffin. Its role is unlimited to seal a coffin like Meng Po, which is comparable to an evil god.
Shi Dalu sneered: "No matter what they are trading, no matter what Li Congrong's purpose, as long as we get rid of Ji Li, the threat will be very small..."
"And... if you want to get rid of Ji Li, you will first seize the blood-red coffin!"
...
"Then I understand."
The transaction between the two store managers at the end of the team has reached the final stage. Ji Li's face is dull, and Li Congrong is also very relaxed.
Ji Li calculated in his mind that there are only six clerks left in the fifth branch.
Li Guanqi doesn't count, Li Congrong doesn't need to touch him for the time being, so there are still four clerks left.
"How to kill it depends on you personally. I believe you are better than anyone else in this kind of thing, so I won't care."
After Li Congrong said this, he walked quickly and caught up with the team ahead.
Ji Li was not in a hurry. He was always staring at the back of the fifth branch. The big price he wanted was naturally the hard currency in the Tianhai Hotel: a sin.
Although he cannot use sinful objects himself, and ordinary sinful objects cannot act on him, who would think there are too many such things?
The staff of the fifth branch store, he took care of Li Congrong asking for four crimes and had a big appetite, but Li Congrong also agreed.
But they can't get it out now, so they use installment payment.
This task is given half, and the next time I encounter a joint task, I will pay it to the other half.
"This is a big job, Shi Dalu, Du Xiyue, Qiu Xue, Lang Qing. Among these four people, Shi Dalu is the hardest to kill, followed by Du Xiyue.
So I suggest that your first goal is among Qiu Xue and Lang Qing.β
The third personality has been helping Ji Li think about the next action.
But Ji Li didn't think much about it, so he refuted it and cited another way of killing:
"If I don't need to do anything, he will die by himself; Qiu Xue has a faint image of Li Congrong's faction, which may be used; the hardest to kill are Shi Dalu and Du Xiyue.
Du Xiyue is not simple. You can know from all her defences that she is cautious and suspicious, and killing her first may be in vain."
Ji Li, who had already relied on the few exchanges to explore the character and behavior of the clerks in the fifth branch.
The third personality was a little surprised: "Then do you want to take the strongest Shi Dalu?"
"Did you notice his eyes when he looked at the blood-red coffin? He will come to seek death by himself."
Ji Li's pale face was half blocked by her long hair, and a smile appeared slightly on the corner of her mouth. She looked so weird and very cunning.
...
βIt seems to be our advantage when we pass the Fifth Branch, but it is not actually.β
Similarly, the clerks who are temporarily divided into three teams are also undergoing information integration and thinking within the seventh branch.
Ji Li and Li Congrong wanted to kill people, Shi Dalu and Du Xiyue wanted to break the deadlock, Yu Guo, Chang Nian and others wanted to protect themselves.
Yu Guo has a thorough understanding of the current situation. He pointed out incisively that it is not the time for the cooperation between the fifth branch.
The matter of Meng Po came to an end, but there was still a distance from the last level and the most important level "Fengdu City".
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! And the calmness of this road will completely explode at the last level.
"The black umbrella sin object has been used twice, the script sin object has been used once, and the perfume bottle has not been brought out in Mei Sheng's hands. Our situation is very bad."
When Ji Li was not here, Chang Nian was the leader of the team. She knew better than anyone that the current seventh branch seems to be the same as the fifth branch.
But if you really want to start, you are afraid that they will completely fall into a passive state without the need for the ghost to take action.
At this time, Yu Guo took out a quaint wooden comb from his arms, "This is a sinful thing Li Guanqi gave me. It has a healing effect and can support combat."
Chang Nian's eyes were filled with joy, but also with suspicion: "Why did he give you a sin? Or is it a sin that saves life?"
The healing effect of sin is not rare in the top ten branches, but each one is of great use.
During the mission stage, the most difficult thing is that the injured person in the long mission cannot support the following process, and with the healing of sin, you can get rid of this result.
"It was won by bet." Yu Guo smiled, without explaining in detail.
"Why are you worried about so much? I want to say that soldiers come to block the water and come to Tutun. Have you seen Ji Li's face?"
Hong Fu was still the same temperament, he clenched his nose carelessly and said indifferently: "I'm sure the current situation is nothing in Ji Li's eyes. He is very confident."
"But at the end of the day, we all have to rely on ourselves."
"I can't be anxious about the sinful thing. Maybe I will pick one up as soon as I bow my head?"
Hong Fu had just finished saying this when suddenly he didn't notice that the soles of his feet slipped, as if something had been pulled down and fell to his back.
The funny look made everyone roll their eyes.
But Hong Fu's face changed slightly when his palms were supported. He clearly felt a cold strip under his hands, and the cold breath was drilling into his heart from his palms.
