Aoba Office

I think it's ridiculous, and what's even more ridiculous is that Gu Yan's out-of-print book actually sold well. In the past, music posters, movie and TV posters that were sold at the bottom of the box could sell over 10,000 yuan a month. This sales volume only surged a few days after Gu Yan's death.

I couldn't always look at my phone while walking on the street. After confirming the situation, I put away my phone and returned to my work.

I found Huang Wen and handed him the signed contract. Huang Wen thanked him, but his expression was very ugly. Others in the office also looked bad. That kind of badness can be seen at a glance. The so-called Yintang becomes blue, that's probably it. They seemed to be wearing exaggerated special effects makeup. Their cheeks were sunken, their lips were white, and their foreheads were faintly blue. It didn't look normal.

I didn’t see anything strange in the office, and they didn’t have any weird aura about them. This makes me feel bad.

Supernatural events no longer scare me. Weird phenomena that are not supernatural events are what scare me now.

"Are you... okay?" I asked.

Huang Wen tugged at the corner of his mouth, "I just haven't been able to sleep well recently and can't eat... Well, I really... still feel a little uncomfortable. Someone died... It's still the same... I've been flustered these days. I get flustered even if nothing happens. I used to do more work and divert my attention, but now..."

Huang Wen sighed.

His words resonated with the other two people in the office.

"Well, didn't you get psychological counseling before? I still have my business card left." I advised him tactfully.

This kind of problem can only be solved by a psychiatrist.

Huang Wen just shook his head. It seems that he has already seen a psychiatrist.

"Hey! Did you hear that?" an older man in the office shouted. His eyes widened and he didn't even blink. His body tensed and he jumped up, but didn't stand up completely. That's as weird as it gets.

He held up one hand as if to shush, with the raised finger well away from his mouth. His other hand was placed by his side, as if pressing it on the table, but it was raised, ten centimeters away from the table.

"Did you hear that?" He lowered his voice and spoke to us almost breathlessly. The eyes widened even more.

"Old Wang, stop scaring people." Huang Wen smiled dryly.

"No! It really does!" Lao Wang raised his voice, then lowered it immediately, "Listen, listen..."

I didn't hear anything.

In the distance, there was the sound of cars passing on the road outside the building, but there was no sound at all in the corridor.

This is actually a bit strange.

There are people working in every building. Even if you are fishing, it is impossible to be completely silent. There are always people walking around, going to the toilet, pouring water, typing on the keyboard, printing files, flipping through documents...

The office building was eerily quiet.

This is what scares me.

But that’s not what Lao Wang pointed out. He emphasized several times and asked us to listen to the sound.

Huang Wen scolded, but in a soft tone. He probably didn't hear the sound, but was frightened by Lao Wang's actions.

The other person in the office is a tall and thin man. I remember his surname was Huang, and he was usually called Xiao Huang. I have no idea what his specific name was. Xiao Huang was also very frightened. He was trembling and looked even more frightened than Lao Wang.

I asked, "What sound did you hear?"

Huang Wen immediately glared at me. His eyes were not intimidating and only revealed his own fear.

"Water, it's water..." Lao Wang turned around slowly, "Over there...the toilet...there's the sound of water. It's water...yes...yes..."

There was something that was about to come out of Lao Wang's mouth, but it was stuck there.

Lao Wang held it in for a long time before he said: "It's that old man! That old man who died inside! It must be him... it's him..."

I can't even pronounce the old doctor's name.

However, in this tense and strange moment, Lao Wang suppressed such a way of addressing him, which somewhat broke the atmosphere.

I relaxed, but Huang and Huang were still nervous. Huang Wen scolded him again, and Xiao Huang almost cried to tell Lao Wang to stop talking.

When I look at these three people, I feel that they are really crazy. At least, there is something wrong with the psychology. Lao Wang is the most serious.

I quietly said to Huang Wen: "Should we give him a holiday?"

Huang Wen started to think.

The old man didn't notice our conversation and kept his posture, spinning around like a madman.

Huang Wen called him, but he ignored him. Huang Wen approached cautiously and told him to take a holiday.

"Take some time off. Your vacation this year is useless, right? Use it. It's the end of the year, and it will be wasted if you don't use it anymore. Don't worry about the salary, your son is already so promising..." Huang Wen began to think. I have a pretty good job at work, but my attitude is very urgent and I try my best to find reasons to give Lao Wang a day off.

Lao Wang stopped turning his body and stared at the ground for a while, then raised his eyes to Huang Wen, "At home...there is also one. He follows me. He has been following me..." Lao Wang came to Huang Wen's side and said mysteriously He said: "I am the only one in the family. He will kill me. He will definitely kill me. No, no!" He shook his head vigorously.

This reaction was beyond my expectation.

Huang Wen seemed to have just realized that Lao Wang had hallucinated to this extent, and his expression changed.

Huang Wen looked at me and said, "I'll go talk to the old leader about this matter..."

"Yeah." I nodded. This is a matter in their office. The old leader will handle it next, and it has nothing to do with me.

I am ready to leave, and Huang Wen is also going to find the old leader. That Xiao Huang didn't want to be alone with Lao Wang and wanted to follow Huang Wen.

Only Lao Wang was left in the office. Huang Wen didn't take this to heart.

I paused for a moment and looked back at Lao Wang, who was still circling in search of a sound.

This is an issue I haven't considered before.

I always think that the world is deteriorating, there are ghosts everywhere, ghosts kill people, everyone lives in danger, and that danger is the danger of death at any time. It never occurred to me that anyone could go crazy.

It is normal for some people to be frightened and go crazy.

After encountering a supernatural event, many people will be frightened to the point of acting abnormally. Some of them were killed by ghosts, and some killed themselves after behaving abnormally.

I looked away.

Lao Wang is probably really crazy.

Huang Wen had arrived at the old leader's office and asked him to come out. Xiao Huang was waiting at the door, following behind the two of them, tremblingly.

When the old leader saw me, he just nodded and said hello.

After that incident, the old leader's attitude towards me did not change.

I watched them enter the office and faintly heard the old leader questioning Lao Wang.

Walk step by step back to your office.

After Lao Wang's appearance, I became more aware of my surroundings.

It's really quiet inside the building. The doors of each office were closed, and no sound came out.

After walking for a while, I heard the movement of Slender Man and the others.

I was in a daze.

It’s still the same as before, it’s about just the five of us. Perhaps because of this, I never noticed a big change in the atmosphere at the demolition office.

Da da da……

I passed by the door of Jiang You's office.

Their office door was open, but no sound came out.

I glanced sideways and saw several people in the office sitting at their desks, motionless in front of their computers.
