Death Spiral [Infinite Flow] - Chapter 177
The subway is not allowed, and other public transportation may not be safe. Fortunately, the company was not too far from the apartment, so the two of them accelerated their pace and finally arrived at the company before 8:30.
When she came to the personnel department, Xu Rendong was already sweating. HR asked him to sit in the reception room for a while, and she went to ask the head of the department to come over.
Lianqiao Lianqiao sat in the reception room and analyzed what happened just now.
“I thought you would be safe without your teammates.” Lian Qiao shook his head and smiled, “It seems that I think too much.”
Xu Rendong smiled wryly. The scene in the subway just now, obviously, it was the copy that attacked him.
He has never encountered such a thing, why is this dungeon so directed at him? Not only did he blatantly reveal his birth and death year as a clue, he even arranged the whole scene to murder him after his teammates were all dead.
When you come to work at the company, something will definitely happen. But the copy has already cut their way of retreat – they can’t go home without the apartment key, and can’t squat on the stairs for four days, right?
“I don’t know if the key will be returned…” Xu Rendong sighed.
“It is estimated that I can come back. If the copy does not want you to go home, it will not give you a key for free.” Lian Qiao said, “But it is hard to say. This copy is too Strange.”
Xu Rendong has no clue and can only wait and see what happens.
Soon, HR and department heads entered the reception room together. HR asked Lian Qiao to wait outside for a while. Ren Dong was worried that Lian Qiao would not agree, but Lian Qiao quickly got up and left.
The department head who came to see him was his first boss in the outside world. Is a vicissitudes of life middle-aged man. The old boss was ordinary, in a state of eating and waiting to die. So in the real world, it didn’t take long for him to be replaced by a new female colleague. That female colleague was Xu Rendong’s immediate boss who had been with him for the longest time.
In short, Xu Rendong is not familiar with this director Li, and has no feelings at all.
After signing the contract quickly, Director Li proposed to take him to the department to meet other colleagues. HR didn’t accompany her anymore, and said she was going back to the HR department.
Xu Rendong walked outside the reception room, Lian Qiao put down the magazine in his hand and got up to greet him.
Honeysuckle was about to say what you should do when Lian Qiao came over and whispered, “I found that your company is looking for a cleaner. I’ll go for an interview later.”
Honeysuckle is helpless: “Why are you a cleaner again, haven’t you cleaned enough?”
Lian Qiao was taken aback: “Huh?”
Honeysuckle reminded: “When I was studying, didn’t you volunteer to be a cleaner in the school…”
Lian Qiao was stunned for three seconds, and then he reacted: “Oh, oh, yes.” Then he flattened his mouth, “Then what else can I do? If you want to stay by your side, you can only be a hidden sweeper.”
Hidden away…
Xu Rendong inexplicably remembered the note that Ishimi wore in the amulet. On it was written “Lian Qiao is hidden and has to be guarded”.
Honeysuckle shook her head with a smile, driving the strange thought out of her mind: “Okay. You go quickly. I’ll go check the situation in the office first.”
“Okay. Be careful.”
“You too.”
In order to facilitate contact, Xu Rendong gave Lian Qiao his mobile phone and told him the number of his office.
Director Li brought honeysuckle to the department. In fact, there is no need for him to lead the way, Ren Dong is too familiar with this place.
This is where he worked for four years. Although the layout of the department four years ago is not the same as it is now, the basic structure is still the same. In the open office area, six desks are placed face to face. There was a personal computer on each table, and five of them had people working at desks, with only one window seat vacant.
This is where Xu Rendong has been sitting for four years. Just standing here, he can imagine the scene outside the window when he is sitting in that position and looking back.
Director Li introduced him to everyone. Five colleagues stood up to welcome him, and then went back to the intense work. These five people are all veterans. When he just graduated, he was already an old employee, and then he was promoted and changed jobs one after another. Xu Rendong was not so impressed with them that he couldn’t even remember their names.
Fortunately I’m not familiar. Xu Rendong sat in his seat and thought calmly: In case they want to kill me, I have no psychological obstacle if I move my hand.
Soon, Director Li also assigned work to Xu Rendong. This is his first day at work, and naturally he will not arrange anything particularly important for him. Therefore, Xu Rendong completed it quickly, but did not rush to hand it over to the leader, but quietly observed the surroundings.
Five colleagues are all working hard, no matter what he is doing. Director Li has a separate office with the shutters drawn, and I don’t know what to do in it.
Xu Rendong stood up with a teacup, pretended to pour water, and passed everyone’s desks all the way. Everyone was writing reports, looking focused, still ignoring him. Xu Rendong felt that these colleagues had no intention of hurting him for the time being, but he still couldn’t relax his vigilance.
By the time he went to the bathroom, he went to confirm the location of the escape route and the fire axe – he could not come to work with the equipment, it was too conspicuous. Since this scene requires him to live in accordance with the real world, he will naturally not be allowed to do anything out of character.
Although you can put your equipment in the locker room, but to be on the safe side, you still need to confirm a safe escape route.
When he had roughly finished detecting the building environment and returned to the office area, he was looking at Director Li’s searching gaze.
“Hey, Xu Rendong, I’m looking for you.” Director Li beckoned and asked him to come over.
Lian Qiao, who was standing behind Director Li, couldn’t help but be surprised. Lian Qiao had a smug smile of “please praise me”, as if he had done something very remarkable.
Lin Dong walked over inexplicably, and listened to the main channel Li: “This is our new intern, the surname is Lian. You can take him first during this time.”
Xu Rendong: “…?” The accident caught him off guard. He opened his eyes wide and asked subconsciously, “Me? I bring? But I didn’t just…”
Director Li patted his shoulder with a smile: “You have been here for half a year! Don’t be modest, your ability is obvious to all!”
Six months?
Xu Rendong raised her watch and glanced at it, and sure enough, the hour hand pointed to twelve o’clock.
A day is a year. He went out to catch a fish, and when he came back, he became an old employee with half a year’s qualifications, and there was nothing wrong.
However, what happened to Lian Qiao, didn’t he want to be a sweeper? How did you become an intern?
Xu Rendong pulled Lian Qiao to the printer room next door and asked in a low voice, “How did you get in?”
“I see that you are recruiting interns.” Lian Qiao said with a smile, “I told your HR, I don’t want salary, just put a stamp on my internship certificate so that I can handle it School will do.”
“Can she promise you this?” Xu Rendong was suspicious, he remembered that HR was not such a good talker.
“It’s not because I’m smart?” Lian Qiao smiled very proudly, “I asked her a question: Do you know who my father is?”
“What did she say?”
“I didn’t give her time to think and question me, I just threw things in her face, pretended to make a phone call and walked out. What else can she do? Of course she chased after me and begged me to follow She signed the contract.”
“…” Xu Rendong was shocked, “Is there such an operation?”
Lian Qiao shrugged: “The NPCs in the dungeon have their own rules of behavior. In this dungeon, the whole world revolves around you. So I think, I want to stay by your side, dungeon It won’t be allowed.”
Xu Rendong also thinks it makes sense. This is like in the nine-chain copy, their identity is set as “guests”, so the maids in the tulou obey them. Even if they were asked to help to get the ring, they were very obedient.
However, this time “the whole world revolves around you” is not a good thing for him.
After all, the killing intent of the whole world has all gathered on him.
Xu Rendong wanted to speak, but suddenly heard a rustling sound behind her.
Honeysuckle turned around and saw that the printer in the corner of the room started talking to itself. Green fluorescence flashed, and sheets of paper were spit out from the paper outlet. I don’t know what was printed on the paper, it was black.
Honeysuckle subconsciously took out a knife from her pocket. Lian Qiao had already walked towards the printer and picked up a piece of paper carelessly.
“What is printed?” Honeysuckle also walked over and took the paper from his hand.
However, when I saw it, I was shocked.
I saw a human head printed on the A4 paper.
Xu Rendong froze instantly, pinching the paper, and froze in place. Lian Qiao lifted the lid of the printer with a bang, and the green light slowly swept across the ceiling, but the scanning area was empty.
No wonder. After all, there is no room for a human head in the scanning area.
Xu Rendong recovered from the shock and let out a long sigh.
“The monk… has he become a ghost too?”
Lian Qiao grabbed the paper from his hand, smashed it into a ball, and threw it into the trash.
Seeing him bowing his head silently, Rendong felt an abnormally low air pressure from him, and was about to speak to comfort him, but heard Lian Qiao say, “Why become a ghost?”
Honeysuckle: “Isn’t there one before? People killed by ghosts will become the kind of ghosts that killed him…” Having said that, a strange thought suddenly flashed in his mind.
Yes, people killed by ghosts will also become ghosts, so—why didn’t Little Apple become ghosts?
Honeysuckle didn’t have time to think about it, but Lian Qiao uttered surprising words.
“If you are killed by a ghost, you will become a ghost, so shouldn’t the one killed by me become a human?”
Xu Rendong: “…???”
Does it make sense?
He was dumbfounded for a while, not knowing what to say. His attention was completely diverted by Lian Qiao’s astonishing words, and he couldn’t remember what he was thinking before.
