Soul Trigger

Chapter 29 Original Body
This is a separate chat window. The other party's ID is Scavenger-028, and his avatar is a white mummy.

[Black Goat: Can you help clean my house? Some things are broken, just throw them away.]

The other party did not reply, but Ji Li could see a series of footprints appear out of thin air in the living room, as if they stayed at the corresponding position in the reflected world. After walking back and forth for a few breaths, he saw the figure stop.

buzz-

[Scavenger-028: Okay. To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and contact, please stay away or cover your face.]

Soon the footprints left the living room and seemed to have walked outside the door, and then the sound of knocking on the door was heard in reality.

As Ji Li pulled the trigger of his soul and entered the evil spirit transformation, he gently opened the door, and a smell of spices hit him in the face -

A gray mummy was standing at the door.

"...Scavenger-028?"

The other party did not reply and just stood there straight, but Ji Li's phone rang again:
[Scavenger-028: Yes, please let me in]

As Ji Li made way, the other party walked in neither fast nor slow, but Ji Li could feel that a gaze lingered on him for a while.

The mummy stopped in front of the large pile of garbage that Ji Li had cleared out. With a sound of twisting flesh and blood, its entire head suddenly split into four pieces. It sucked all the garbage into its stomach like a whirlwind, and then burped.

Ji Li: “?!”

He looked at the other person's flat abdomen, a little dazed.

Isn't this also how it stores corpses?

[Cleaner-028: The cleaning has been completed. Thank you for using our service. Welcome to visit us next time. 】

The mummy walked out of the room calmly. Just as it was about to help Ji Li close the door, Ji Li walked up and handed the plastic-wrapped heart to it:
"Brother, help me take this too."

The mummy shook violently, as if frightened by the dull and distorted sound of Ji Li's undead state. Then it took the heart and left with quickened pace, without closing the door this time.

"……interesting."

Ji Li closed the door and regained his human form, and took a look at the order that Jin Misha had placed for him.

The body and heart will be sent directly to the Special Management Bureau. After the Special Management Bureau receives the goods and completes the receipt, Flash Street will transfer the corresponding credit points to his account.

This was Ji Li's first time experiencing the ecological process of the Reflection World, so he couldn't help but feel a little fresh, so he sent another message to the chat window that had not disappeared:

[Black Goat: Will you send it to me next time? ]

[Scavenger-028: Do you want to specify the courier? This will incur additional charges, please check the link...]

For some reason, Ji Li seemed to feel a surge of excitement between the lines...

[Black Goat: Sure, I'll definitely pick you when I have money.]

Outside Ji Li's community, the mummy stood in the shadows, holding the phone covered in saliva, for a long time, then spit out all the garbage in his stomach into the trash can, then swallowed the phone into his stomach before disappearing into the darkness.

After dealing with this series of things, Ji Li studied the soul space and the information sent by Jin Misha before he finally felt tired.

From the moment he fell from the inverted cross until now, he seemed to have been running around with this frail body, but now he finally had a chance to take a breath.

He half-lay on the sofa with his eyes closed. The panel of the Ascension Protocol appeared before him. He thought and controlled the Ascension Protocol to start creating files.

Two ultimate goals:

1. Pay attention to all clues related to dimension and time travel, and try to find a way to return to Murphy's structure.

2. Continue to strengthen yourself, study the soul space and the power system of this world, find a new way to become stronger, and continue to achieve the ultimate goal of the evolution of life forms.

As for the current situation...

1. Find the identity of the original owner and integrate into the current civilized society.

2. Use Flash Street as a platform springboard to improve your status and your own strength in Flash Street and continue to explore this world.

3. Make money.

Unconsciously, Ji Li felt his thoughts becoming increasingly confused, his strong hands gradually limp on the armrests of the sofa, and his breathing gradually became steady.

He fell asleep.

……

The next morning, Ji Li climbed up from the sofa with a sore back. He glanced at the crack in the wall at the entrance that he had made. After shaking his head slightly, he felt hungry.

I wanted to wash my face to wake myself up, but found that there was no water in the toilet. It seemed that the original owner had been missing for more than 2 months. The electricity was still running, but the water had been cut off long ago.

He could only rub his face, go back to the sofa and close his eyes for a while before getting up again.

The room the original owner rented was neither big nor small, with a spacious small living room, an entrance hall, a toilet, a bedroom, and a small storage room.

The bedroom was not big, with a bed, a double wardrobe, and a desk. The desk was covered with a lot of things and covered with dust, and there were some dirty clothes randomly placed on the coat rack next to it.

There was a wooden shelf above the desk, with some photos on the edge. Ji Li took down the photos and looked at them. There were group photos and individual photos, and he found "himself" in them.

It was at the beach with a girl, and both of them looked very childish, obviously much younger than they are now.

Most of the other photos were of a couple with children, and the original owner was not seen, but Ji Li believed that the child was the original owner.

"This guy seems to miss his childhood very much." Ji Li put the photo on the shelf.

There were many books on the desk, such as "Chinese", "Mathematics", "English", etc., and the name "myself" was written crookedly on the cover. Ji Li picked it up and flipped through it. He had never taken such a course, so he thought it was a book used for some special training.

Then he found a brass knuckle in the drawer. He had never used it before, but his instinct for weapons immediately made him understand how to use it. Other things in the drawer included a folding knife, a note full of swear words, and some metal necklaces and rings.

Ji Li glanced at the leather jacket with mildew stains hanging on the coat rack next to him and raised his eyebrows:
"You're still a punk?"

The punk kid mentioned by Ji Li can be directly translated into non-mainstream guy or will-o'-the-wisp boy in this world.

Although Ji Li was also a sly guy when he was a teenager, not all sly guys have to wear sloppy leather jackets and fly will-o'-the-wisp.

After putting the folding knife into his pocket and the other things back, Ji Li opened the drawer on the other side. A mobile phone inside slid into his sight by inertia.

I pressed and held the power button and it turned on quickly.

However, the screen of this phone is broken and it has many scratches on it, so it should be a spare phone.

After turning on the phone, Ji Li clicked on the address book.

There were not many names in it, but they were obviously relatives, and there were quite a few of them. Ji Li randomly clicked on one and dialed it, but it showed that the call could not be connected. He simply dialed them one by one, and he dialed more than ten in a row but none of them could be connected.

Then he dialed Jin Misha's number, and soon after the call a cold female voice came from the other end:
"You have five seconds to state your purpose clearly."

"rabbit?"

The other party paused for a moment, and then the voice suddenly warmed up: "Ah? Old Ji? What phone are you using to call me? Is it an international call?"

"The phone I found in my bedroom, what does international calling mean?"

"...your number is Shulong's number. Although you are in Silla now, the place of origin displayed is still Shulong."

Shulong? All of this kid's relatives are at Shulong?
Ji Li suddenly thought of a possibility.

"It's okay, I'll just try to see if the phone still works."

"You're disturbing your good brother so early in the morning to sleep in, aren't you..." Ji Li could hear Bunny Girl yawning loudly, as if she had just woken up. The cold tone at the beginning was obviously made up on the spur of the moment:

"…So how's the investigation of your background going? Have you contacted your family?"

"I suspect I may have been abandoned in this country."

"Huh?" Jin Misha was puzzled, "You are my biological child?"

"You are my biological child." Ji Li retorted, "I won't argue with you today. I'll check it out and we'll talk on the street later."

"Humph……"

After a few words and hanging up, Ji Li looked at the old phone in his hand, his eyes gradually became clear:

"It's confirmed that it's not a problem with my phone, so it's a problem with the number... Have all these relatives rejected Ji Li's calls or blocked them?"

Ji Li continued to look for any clues about the original owner, and finally found a thin notebook and charger under the drawer. After successfully turning it on, he finally found an email inside:
[I have sent you this year's living expenses. I still say the same thing. When you figure it out, I will find someone to pick you up.]

Here is a reply from three months ago:

【roll. 】

It was sent by the original owner.

The email was signed with a note: "Old, stinky idiot."

It seems that the script of this predecessor of mine was that he had a conflict with his family, and then the original owner disappeared. During the time of his disappearance, the sender did not send any more emails.

When checking past emails, Ji Li only saw that this person would send a similar sentence to this email account every year. This conflict was not just a simple one that lasted for ten days or half a month.

After directly filtering out all other emails except that from this person, Ji Li finally saw all the emails sent by this person.

The earliest one basically confirmed Ji Li's guess:

The original body of this body had irreconcilable conflicts with his family for some reasons, and ran away from Shulong to Silla alone five years ago.

Every year, this "old, stinking idiot" would send the original owner an email asking him to transfer money and saying something like "think about it carefully", and the original owner would always reply with swear words. It was obvious that the original owner was determined to break up with his family.

Ji Li guessed that this "old, stinky idiot" who still cared about his offspring might not even know that the original owner had been kidnapped for two months.

This made Ji Li feel relieved. He had been an orphan for 299 years. He couldn't get used to having a good father and a good mother all of a sudden. It would be best if he had no contact with them until he died.

It's just a pity for this child that he didn't explain everything clearly to his family before he died.

Lao Deng sighed a little. What he is more concerned about now is where the annual living expenses go.

After checking the various apps on this old phone, he found an app called "Silla Bank". After entering through the fingerprint verification on his phone, Ji Li gave up when he saw that the balance was 0.

At this moment, Shanjie's phone vibrated, and he picked it up and saw:
[Photo studio owner: How are you feeling recently? Have you adapted to your own strength? ]

[Black Goat: Film?]

There are only two contacts on Ji Li’s Shanjie APP, one is the “little bastard” Jin Misha, whose ID note he changed, and the other is the “photo studio owner” Feilin.

[Photo studio owner: Yes. The Special Management Bureau contacted me this morning and received the body you sent yesterday. They may recruit you recently under the pretext of investigating the Red Whip Society.]

[Black Goat: Do you want to name a price to keep me here? ]

[Photo studio owner: Haha, I don't need to quote a price, I believe you can make your own judgment. But I have a job here that pays very well, it would be very suitable for you to do it, and it can also be regarded as the first step to help you return to society. Are you interested? ]
