Chapter 4: Maple Leaf Manor (1)
"It's an 'easy' task!" Yechen looked at his corpse and sighed.
She had just entered the mission world through a door of light-forging through a private room in the seventh dimension, and before she could check what was going on around her, she died inexplicably. The soul fluttered away from the body, hanging in mid-air.
What is this? Failed the mission before it even started? In addition to being surprised, Yechen was also a little depressed in his heart.
She had just entered the seventh dimension, and she had no intuitive understanding of the cruelty and horror of this infinite world, and she was only depressed at this time for the possible failure of the mission, and she could not say that she was desperate. Although she also knew that once the mission failed, she would really die.
Yechen focused his attention on the Space Ring and brought up the quest screen, which had a description of the quest.
Mission Name: Maple Leaf Manor.
Mission: Kill everyone staying at Maple Leaf Manor.
There is also a character introduction below: his identity in this mission is the head of a holiday manor, in charge of this maple leaf manor on the outskirts of Newlun City.
It seems that this mission has not failed, so what is the current situation of yourself? Could it be ...... Do you want to complete this mission as a ghost?
What's going on? Yechen muttered in her heart, but she didn't feel particularly flustered, which she herself felt a little surprised. Maybe it's not hard for her to become a ghost after death, and to be a conscious ghost.
Looking around, Yechen was now in a bedroom, and his body was lying on the bed in the bedroom, with a peaceful and ruddy face, as if he had just fallen asleep. The corpse was covered with a quilt, and a splendid manju sawa was embroidered on a lilac satin, which was very beautiful, but not very auspicious; In the corner, there is a set of four-door, milky white minimalist style wardrobes, in front of the window is a set of tables and chairs of the same style, there is a desktop computer on the desktop, and there is a book next to it, with a bookmark made of maple leaves, and next to it is a small Tibetan knife; The walls are pale yellow wallpaper, and the floor is glossy floor. The whole room was simply decorated but felt comfortable.
Yechen got out of bed flutteringly, inspecting the suburban manor he was in charge of.
Maple Leaf Manor is a small resort estate located at the foot of Mount Beyin. The main building has a total of eight rooms on two floors, each bedroom is equipped with a private bathroom, and on the first floor there is a separate bathroom and large kitchen. There are also two small buildings next to the main building, the east one is Ye Chen's residence, and the west one is mainly used for storage and is equipped with a large freezer. As for what was stored in the freezer, Yechen didn't know, although he could enter through the cabinet door, but it was too cold inside, so forget it.
Outside the manor, there is a yard of several hundred square meters, planted with two maple trees, the trunks are several hugs thick, and it is estimated that they are hundreds of years old. The maple trees are handsome and tall, and lush. It's just that the autumn is not strong, and the maple leaves are still generally green, and I can't enjoy the red glow in full swing. There is a grape trellis in the corner of the yard, and there are stone tables and chairs underneath, so it is also a good pleasure to rest under the cool breeze under the grapevine trellis in summer.
After looking at the situation of Maple Leaf Manor and familiarizing himself with his special state, Yechen returned to the bedroom. As soon as I came in through the door, with a soft ding, the computer screen on the table lit up, and the reservation system that had been running showed that someone had booked Maple Leaf Manor and came to move in a month.
This is indeed a simple task, Ye Chen thought to himself, and couldn't help but smile on his face.
……
A month later, the two cars, one in front of the other, drove to the gate of the Maple Leaf Manor, with a faint amount of dust.
"It's finally here." After the car was parked, a woman got out of the car in front of her, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, faded from the youthfulness of a girl, and began to have the charm of a woman, painted with fine makeup, and her neck and hands, which were easily overlooked, were also well maintained, without a little roughness and dullness. Her name is Xuanqi and she is the owner of Xuanmeng Trading Co., Ltd.
"Well, the environment is not bad here, right?" Another person got out of the car, it was a man, about 30 years old, more than 1.8 meters, with a strong physique, and he was a fitness enthusiast who was diligent in exercising. His name is You Yong, a college classmate of Xuanqi, and the manager of Xuanmeng Trading, who is responsible for the daily operation of this small trading company, including this team building vacation, which is also planned by him. Considering the distance and price, You Yong finally settled on this Maple Leaf Manor on the outskirts of Newlun City as the location for their company vacation.
"The environment is very good, there are mountains and rivers." Xuanqi looked around at the surrounding mountain scenery, "But this manor is too small, and the company is not without money." ”
"It's not small, we're just a small company." You Yong said helplessly. Xuanmeng Trading is indeed a small company, with a registered capital of only 300,000 yuan and not much liquidity. This time, the Maple Leaf Manor cost nearly 100,000 yuan, which is already a big expense for the company.
"Cut—stingy." Xuanqi gave You Yong a blank look. This little money is nothing to Xuanqi, and she only started this company to try her hand and accumulate management experience - in fact, she does not manage the company very much, at best she can accumulate experience as a director.
While Xuanqi and You Yong were chatting, several other people also got out of the car. and Xuanqi, sitting in a car in front of them were Bi Yan and Shangzhi; Driving in the car behind is Huang Lan, who is the company's accountant, as well as the teacher in charge of the company's public relations, and two new employees who have been in the company for less than a month, Tianyu and Yechen.
Yes, Yechen also infiltrated this company.
A month ago, after Yechen received information from the task description about several guests who were about to stay in Maple Leaf Manor, she went over to find it, and to complete the task, she must at least have a confidant and know the other!
After finding Xuanmeng Commerce, Yechen, who had planned to try his hand first, found that things were not so simple: as a ghost, Yechen was limited by the seventh dimension in some ways. Specifically, she couldn't kill anyone directly.
Yechen has made many attempts, such as taking advantage of the target's sleep, taking a knife and quietly touching it, but as soon as the blade touched the skin of the opponent's neck, Yechen felt a strong burning sensation, and the paper cutter in his hand was almost thrown out.
This burning sensation is not completely unbearable, but it can cause a lot of damage to one's soul. In just a few seconds, Yechen's soul weakened a lot, and it took several days to recover, which was completely a life for life.
As for making a little accident, such as pushing the target down the stairs. Success was successful, and there was no such intense burning sensation as punishment. However, Yechen's carefully conceived accident was a bit unsatisfactory in terms of the final effect, and the biggest gain made the other party scratch a little skin.
After several attempts to no avail, Yechen had to speculate that the seventh dimension seemed to be restricting her from killing someone "directly".
In this way, Yechen has only two paths to take. The first is fright, with a soul body that can be blurred and condensed at any time, she can easily sneak into any place, and then suddenly appear. Think about it, having a hand on your shoulder while you're taking a shower can definitely scare people half to death.
But alas, it can only be scared half to death. The real world is not a horror novel, simply by scare, unless the other party has a heart and brain disease, it is difficult to be scared to death, and after the fright reaches the limit of the human body's tolerance, the nervous system will automatically respond - that is, faint with fright. Even if you really go to great lengths to scare a guy out of a nervous breakdown, or even go crazy, it's useless, the task is to "kill" the occupants.
There is another way, which will be troublesome, and the success rate is ...... To be honest, it's not that high.
After three days of hard work, Yechen finally decided to use the identity assigned to her by the seventh space in this mission world, and first infiltrate this small trading company.
There is another girl who successfully applied for the job with Yechen, and that is Tianyu who is standing next to her.
"It's so beautiful here!" Shishi said in her sweet voice. When autumn is in full swing, the leaves on the mountains in the distance are colorful, red, yellow, and green, and with the crisp and clear blue sky, it is very beautiful, like a landscape painting.
"And the air here is great – much better than in the city." Tianyu sighed, "Did you say yes?" ”
"Ahh Yechen exclaimed in surprise and complained, "You can talk as you speak, don't move your hands and feet." "Because they applied for this company together, Yechen and Tianyu have a good relationship. This girl has excellent skin, crystal red, delicate and boneless, but she has a bad habit of always poking her face with her hand.
Yechen's body is made of soul condensation, which is always a little different from ordinary physical bodies, so she is very careful to avoid direct skin-to-skin contact with other people, just for fear that others will notice.
Seeing Yechen glaring at him, Tianyu said with a smile: "Okay, I know, it won't be like this in the future." As he spoke, a finger reached out again.
Yechen dodged for a moment and scolded with a smile: "You nasty guy." ”
