Behind the security door, Yuan Yiping had already met the person he was supposed to meet.
"This is the retirement home built by Chi Shen," Yuan Yiping introduced in a very formal tone, "In front is the office building, and in the back is the living area and entertainment area. Currently, there are only these three areas, and subsequent areas are yet to be developed."
"It looks like you're not happy with this job." The speaker was Zhang Yao, who was also the person Yuan Yiping asked to answer the phone when it rang. Before getting familiar with the new environment, she became curious about the person in front of her.
Yuan Yiping hesitated for a moment and looked at Zhang Yao: "You... don't know?"
Although he had never seen Zhang Yao in person before, he had heard of Zhang Yao's abilities. However, at that time he only knew that Zhang Yao was very good at fortune-telling. Later, when he entered the Life Retirement Center and Chi Shen explained it to him, he truly understood what specific abilities Zhang Yao possessed and why this Life Retirement Center was established.
So he became curious about Zhang Yao's question. According to Chi Shen's theory, Zhang Yao was almost omniscient and omnipotent. He only needed to look at a person once to know everything about him. At this moment, Zhang Yao was standing in front of him, even looking at him, but he asked him such a question. This was very strange.
Zhang Yao raised her hand and covered one of her eyes, then let it go. She shook her head and said, "I can see your past, but I have lost the ability to predict the future. This feeling is very strange. In the past, predicting the future from the information I received was as simple as one plus one equals two. But now, I suddenly don't know that one plus one equals two."
After hearing this, Yuan Yiping became thoughtful.
Zhang Yao continued, "But this is also normal. I am now in a soul state, or a ghost after death. The abilities of a ghost are generally the obsessions of the ghost during his lifetime. I used to suffer because of my ability to calculate, so I lost this ability after I died."
Zhang Yao acted very relaxed when she said this. She looked at the world curiously as if she had opened her eyes for the first time. "Also, I have never observed this world before. The future I calculated has all deviated because of the existence of this world. So Chi Shen has reached the future that I cannot see. So I have no idea about you now. This is normal."
"I see. Chi Shen said before that he wanted you to take on a position similar to filling out the life and death book, but now it seems that's not possible." Yuan Yiping said, "I don't hate this job. It's just a job. If you think I'm cold, it's just because I don't want to invest too much emotion in my work. If I don't have any emotions about my work, naturally I can't say I hate it."
Zhang Yao showed an expression of understanding: "I see."
She seemed very enthusiastic about understanding everything, and then looked at the building in front of her and asked, "Is this designed by Chi Shen? It looks familiar."
Yuan Yiping explained to her: "He moved the United Nations building in exactly as it was. You think it looks familiar because the modeler didn't restore it completely due to lack of funds. He only restored a rough outline. There are also Suzhou gardens, amusement parks, high-rise residential areas, and villa areas copied from the past, but there is no commercial center."
Zhang Yao caught a word: "Modeler? I did see Chi Shen made a deal with someone and asked him to make a city model. Is that it?"
Yuan Yiping said: "It should be."
"Wait," Zhang Yao realized the key, "What is the connection between the two worlds?"
Yuan Yiping took out his cell phone and held it up to show Zhang Yao: "It's the Internet. When I died, I entered here through my cell phone."
Zhang Yao fell into deep thought: "Is this why he chose to be a game planner? So he is playing such a big game?"
Yuan Yiping said expressionlessly: "I think you may be overthinking."
——
Chi Shen, who created a new world, is now lying on his bed at home, thinking about life.
As he was falling, Ji Xingchen grabbed him and put him on the bed. Chi Shen was indeed very tired and he needed to lie down and rest.
The red line on the head of the bed became scattered, and the rain outside the window gradually stopped.
Chi Shen himself felt like crying but had no tears.
He had calculated everything well. Although he would use up all his ghost power to repair Hell, all of it could be recovered slowly. He also gambled that even if Ji Xingchen was in a berserk state, he would not be able to hurt him, so he could just give the position of the boss of Hell to Ji Xingchen. This way, he could prevent Wen Qin from taking over Hell, and he could also prevent himself from taking over Hell, and he could also let Ji Xingchen be proud of himself.
He also thought that a responsible person like Ji Xingchen would definitely do a good job as the boss of Hell, and then he could live a carefree life without worrying about anything.
In order not to be 007, he made a careless choice that he had never made since he came out of the death game, and put his life in the hands of another person.
But he was wrong, he was really wrong.
How could he forget that Ji Xingchen was the kind of person who would haggle with him even about cooking and ask him to do it himself!
At the last moment, Ji Xingchen gave the position of Hell Boss back to him!
Chi Shen was lying on the bed sighing, Ji Xingchen was standing beside his bed. His distorted shadow was slowly recovering, the ugly wrinkled skin on his body began to peel off, his overly long hands turned into blood and sank into the ground, and gradually, the handsome and tall Ji Xingchen was peeled off.
There was still violent ghost energy around Ji Xingchen. After the ghost body was separated, the violent ghost energy increased instead of decreased, and looked even more dangerous. His eyes were also blood red. Looking at Chi Shen who was sighing, he closed his eyes for a while to suppress the blood color. When he opened them again, his eyes had regained clarity.
"I think we should discuss what happened today." Ji Xingchen's voice sounded beside the bed.
Chi Shen reluctantly turned his head and looked at Ji Xingchen: "If you want to apologize, I won't accept it."
Ji Xingchen's hand that was pushing up his glasses paused because of his words: "I think you should know how dangerous it is today. You have completely lost the ability to protect yourself. Anyone can hurt you."
Chi Shen didn't take it seriously and even laughed: "Aren't you still here?"
The light from outside the window shone in, falling right on Chi Shen's smiling eyes, making those smiling eyes look warm and affectionate.
Ji Xingchen stopped pushing his glasses. He took them off and placed them on the bedside.
"I think you also need to know that losing your ability in front of me is also a dangerous option."
The cupboard ghost in the room saw them coming back and was hesitating about how to greet them. Which sentence would be the best opening sentence? He really didn't know how to get along with others. Even though he had lived with Chi Shen and the others for so long, he had never said more than ten sentences. But he really wanted to say something tonight and say hello.
He finally prepared himself mentally, pushed open the cabinet door, and smiled the smile he had practiced for a long time, but the next second, he closed the cabinet door.
Hoping that Chi Shen and Ji Xingchen didn’t notice that he opened the cabinet door, the cabinet ghost prayed in his heart that he saw nothing and he didn’t open the cabinet door just now, so nothing happened!
There was suddenly a knock on the door and Zhou Xun came back. Although he didn't know what was going on, the police received a few phone calls and suddenly released him. He had nowhere to go, so he went back to Chi Shen's house.
Just as he knocked on the door, a pale ghost hand suddenly stretched out from the shoe cabinet, held down his hand that was knocking on the door, and stretched out another hand, gesturing to him to keep quiet.
Then, a ghost face slowly appeared on the door, and the ghost face whispered: "Come back tomorrow."
Zhou Xun:?
Then, the ghost face on the door carefully looked inside the door and said, "Maybe I can come back the day after tomorrow."
Zhou Xun: ???
