Bai Xiaowen looked around a little guiltily and found that there was no one around.
"Hello, President …"
When the call was connected, Li Beihai's voice was a little excited. "Xiao Bai, I bought the ticket."
"Huh? You bought it? "Bai Xiaowen was slightly stunned." You're quite lucky. "
"Yes, there happened to be an anonymous seller who urgently needed a ticket to the Spiritual Realm. He didn't raise the price much," Li Beihai said with emotion. "Last time, we were able to buy the temporary team building props because of the same anonymous seller. Xiao Bai, come to my office with Shuyi now. "
Bai Xiaowen was also very happy. He called Li Shuyi and the two of them took the elevator to the President's office. They saw the ticket to the Spiritual Realm.
Speaking of which, this was the first time Bai Xiaowen saw the ticket to the Spiritual Realm in person. He had only seen some pictures before.
On the table in front of Li Beihai, there was an old public telephone. However, under the insight of Bai Xiaowen's Eye of Evolution, he could see that this telephone contained a large number of psionic particles. It was a psionic item, which was completely different from the phones in the public phone booths on the street.
[Old Public Telephone: Teleports the user to the Spiritual Realm. Disappears after use. Remaining usage period: 18 hours, 52 minutes, 39 seconds.]
The countdown to the end of the usage period was still jumping.
Li Beihai said proudly, "This ticket only has less than a day left. The seller's asking price is not high. Tsk tsk, we're really lucky. "
"What's the level of this ticket?" Li Shuyi asked.
"Looking at the prefix of the word 'old', I know it's an E-level ticket. I've already used the psionic camera to check the psionic particles. It's an E-level ticket without a doubt," Li Beihai said. "You won't have a good initial identity when you go to the Spiritual Realm. You'll have to rely on your personal abilities."
The awakened who entered the Spiritual Realm through the ticket were different from the quasi-awakened who entered through the profession change mission. They would have an initial identity and did not need to make it up.
The E-level ticket was the lowest level ticket. After being teleported in, their initial identity would be very poor.
The last time he entered the Three Kingdoms Plane to do the Class Advancement Mission, there was no initial identity. Like an unregistered citizen, he had to make up an identity. Such a fabricated identity would generally not be able to withstand scrutiny. If the actions of the Awakened aroused the suspicions of the people of the Spirit World and they began to investigate … the consequences would be severe.
This was also the reason why Bai Xiaowen had hurriedly returned after completing the class advancement quest and obtaining the most benefits. If he continued to stay in the Three Kingdoms Plane, it would be easy for him to be discovered as an unregistered citizen and arouse suspicion.
However, although the E-class ticket wasn't illegal, it was an even worse start than "illegal". For example, slaves, servants, prisoners, hard laborers …
"It doesn't matter if the initial identity is bad," Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "I'm more interested in which world this phone will take us to after we use it …"
Li Shuyi said, "Isn't it random?"
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "Random matching is also focused. Some tickets to the Spirit World in the form of magic scrolls generally lead to a Western fantasy magic world after use. Some tickets in the form of bamboo slips and silk books lead to a world with an ancient Hua Xia background … "
"Then this phone should lead to a modern city-type world?" Li Shuyi quickly reacted.
"That's right. Xiao Bai, there's another important issue that you have to pay attention to. That is, other Awakened may also encounter you in the Spirit World this time … "
Li Beihai continued and said, "The first two times you entered the Spirit World through the Class Advancement Mission, you were in a temporary independent area and did not interact with other Awakened. This time, it's different with the ticket. "
"I know, I'll be careful," Bai Xiaowen replied.
The Spirit World was not like Earth, where there were surveillance cameras and psionic cameras everywhere. If there was a conflict of interest between the Awakened, it was difficult to resolve it peacefully. Usually, they would decide the outcome with their fists.
The Awakened Convention prohibited killing each other and there were provisions to protect the defeated. However, in the Spirit World, the Convention could not be enforced, so the binding effect was limited.
"I'll take this ticket first. There are still more than ten hours left. I'll try to collect as much information as possible and go to the Spirit World at noon tomorrow. "
"I suggest you have a good night's rest," Li Beihai advised.
"I will."
That night, Bai Xiaowen started a live broadcast as promised. He then announced that he was going to enter the Spirit World, which was considered as asking for leave from his fans.
After that, Li Shuyi accompanied Bai Xiaowen to look up information about the Spirit World with a modern city-type setting in the Guild's database. They were busy until ten o 'clock at night.
Suddenly, Xiaojun, who was in the living room, called out, "Brother, come and watch the news!"
Bai Xiaowen poked his head out of the room.
On the evening news, the middle-aged female announcer's voice was steady and hypnotic.
"… At 7: 40 p.m. on June 10, Beijing time, a traffic accident occurred at Huayang High School on Qingfeng Road in Jinghai City. A male student was crossing the road on a motorcycle when he was hit and run over by a speeding truck. He died on the spot …"
"… It is reported that the student's name is Zhou Yi. His father is the former chairman of Botong Pharmaceuticals, Zhou Botong, who is now in prison. Zhou Yi failed the college entrance examination and drank a lot of alcohol in depression. This was the main reason for the traffic accident … "
Bai Xiaowen was a little surprised. Zhou Yi died just like that?
Xiaojun sighed, "That scum deserved to die. God will punish those who are despicable." She had an extremely bad impression of Zhou Yi.
"Well, he's dead. Xiaojun, don't worry about this matter. Look forward." Bai Xiaowen rubbed Xiaojun's soft hair and returned to the room.
After Bai Xiaowen became a Awakened, he and Zhou Yi were already in two different worlds. To be honest, whether Zhou Yi died or not did not have any substantial impact on Bai Xiaowen.
On the contrary, Li Shuyi was more shocked. He said, "Zhou Yi's personal attributes are close to that of a Awakened. An ordinary car won't kill him. He was too unlucky to run into a big truck. "
"I'm afraid it's not because of bad luck." Bai Xiaowen smiled.
"Huh?"
"Because he's too stupid …" Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes and said, "His backer has fallen, but he still doesn't want to restrain himself. He always wants to make his presence known … It's always an eyesore."
"You mean, it was Xiang Hui who did it?" Li Shuyi said thoughtfully.
"Not necessarily. Although I've only met Xiang Hui a few times, I can roughly guess his nature. He doesn't seem like such a person … Or rather, he just graduated from high school. He's not that black-hearted," Bai Xiaowen said.
"Then who did it?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. "I don't know. In fact, if you want to investigate, you just need to check the flow of funds before and after the acquisition of Botong Pharmaceutical. You should be able to find some clues. However, I don't have the time to investigate, nor am I interested in investigating. In short, it doesn't matter who it is … "
Li Shuyi nodded and said nothing more. With her intelligence, she guessed some inside information from Bai Xiaowen's words.
After a night's rest, they began to organize some information the next morning. At noon, Bai Xiaowen, Li Shuyi, and Xiaojun went to Li Beihai's office again.
"Are you ready?" Li Beihai asked.
"Yes, I'm ready."
Bai Xiaowen smiled at Xiaojun. Then, he pressed his palm on the old telephone and chose to establish a temporary team. The prompt showed that 8,000 psionic points were deducted.
After paying 2,000 psionic points, Li Shuyi joined Bai Xiaowen's team.
