Mysterious country
Chapter 6 A helpless choice
Xia Qi didn't tell his mother what happened last night. The reason was simple, because he didn't want his mother to worry.
But having said that, even if he told his mother, as an extremely ordinary high school Chinese teacher, his mother would not be able to help at all.
Of course, the most deceptive person would be his grandfather, because he would not travel early in the morning and would not travel later, but he chose to go when he was in trouble and in urgent need of help. And the most terrible thing is that he is completely unable to contact anyone.
Xia Qi's grandfather is an old man with a very eccentric personality, and he also has a very appropriate nickname in his circle of friends-Old Naughty Boy. However, although he is an old naughty boy, he has a very stubborn temper. He will do whatever he wants, regardless of whether your family members agree or whether your friends are willing.
Sitting in the speeding taxi, Xia Qi thought drowsily all the way, but when he got off the taxi, all those things he had just thought about were forgotten by him.
When Xia Qi came to the Golden Office Building again, Xia Qi no longer had the excitement he had when he came last time, only feeling uneasy and uneasy.
Speaking of whether he would decide to come back here again, getting his cell phone was just one aspect of it. As for the real reason, he hoped that the middle-aged uncle could help him solve his doubts.
Although there was no evidence, he always felt that his horrific experiences in the past two days were definitely related to that middle-aged uncle, no, to be more precise, it was definitely related to that mysterious company.
With a lot of questions, Xia Qi took the elevator unknowingly to the 33rd floor where the company was located.
However, it was exactly the same as the last time he came here. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he found that the middle-aged uncle was already standing on the opposite side, waiting for him.
"Come with me."
The middle-aged uncle still doesn't talk much, and keeps it as simple as possible. After seeing Xia Qi coming out of the elevator, he turned around and walked aside.
"Fuck, why don't I kill you!"
Xia Tian Qi curled his lips in displeasure, but still followed behind the middle-aged uncle, looking around constantly in the process.
In fact, there is nothing to measure, because it is just an ordinary office area, decorated in a luxurious way at most. It is not the kind of transparent workstations connected one after another, but the kind of independent office with walls and doors.
So Xia Qi actually has no idea who are working in these offices, or whether there are people in these offices.
Xia Qi followed the middle-aged uncle into a luxuriously decorated office without walking far.
The office is very spacious, and there are many calligraphy and paintings hanging on the surrounding walls. It is not difficult to see the middle-aged uncle's preferences from them.
Without asking the middle-aged uncle for instructions, Xia Qi sat on the sofa consciously after coming in, and then said straight to the point:
"Let's not talk about the mobile phone for now. I have a few questions that I need to get answers from you!"
Xia Xia Qi's words were categorical and did not give the middle-aged uncle any room to refuse. Of course, as to whether the middle-aged uncle would ignore him completely or not, that is another matter.
"What do you want to ask?" The middle-aged uncle replied calmly after hearing this.
"I want to know what you and your company do!" Xia Qi asked his first question.
"You are not qualified to know this yet. I can't answer you." The middle-aged uncle refused simply.
Seeing that the middle-aged uncle refused to answer, the fire in Xia Qi's heart suddenly emerged again:
"I can't answer this, and I'm not qualified to know that! Well...I'm going to ask you a question now. Tell me, what can you tell me?"
The middle-aged uncle looked deeply at Xia Qi, who was looking angry, and after a brief silence, he heard him say slowly:
"I'll only say it once, I hope you won't interrupt me."
After hearing this, Xia Qi nodded impatiently. If there was nothing wrong, he would naturally not interrupt without reason.
"I think you must have encountered strange events that you couldn't understand that night at Xinhua Bookstore and last night. In other words, you encountered ghosts, right?"
"You know these things?"
Xia Qi couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard the middle-aged uncle directly tell him what he had experienced in the past two days. However, thinking of what the middle-aged uncle had said before, he quickly shut his mouth and signaled the middle-aged uncle to continue talking.
The middle-aged uncle paused for a moment before saying again:
"I can only give you a reminder. Of course, you can also interpret it as advice.
If you don't go back to work hard tonight and find a way to complete your trial period, then it will definitely be difficult for you to escape tonight. Although you have some "gadgets" on you.
I think you should be able to understand what I mean. "
Xia Qi looked at the middle-aged uncle in confusion, nodded dullly at first, and then asked uncertainly:
"You mean, the reason why I met a ghost yesterday was because I didn't go to work at Xinhua Bookstore?"
"You can understand it that way." The middle-aged uncle nodded affirmatively.
Seeing the middle-aged uncle nodding, Xia Qi hurriedly asked:
"Does that mean that as long as I go back to the bookstore to work, I won't run into ghosts again?"
"Don't lie to yourself. You should know the answer to this matter very well in your heart." The middle-aged uncle directly poured a basin of cold water on Xia Qi.
Xia Qi's heart began to twitch violently again. He covered his heart with an ugly expression and took deep breaths continuously. After a while, he said with difficulty:
"That bookstore is haunted at night, right? As for that ghost, it must be Zhang Xiaoshun. Those corpses I saw that night must have been brutally killed by it.
I couldn't escape originally, but the ghost jade amulet my grandfather gave me probably worked, so it saved my life at that time. "
The more Xia Qi continued talking, the more unstable his mood became, and in the end it turned into a roar:
"If you go to the bookstore, you will be killed by ghosts. If you don't go to the bookstore, you will still be killed by ghosts. No matter what, you will die. Is Chengxin trying to kill me?"
Have I offended you before, or have I offended your children? There is no grievance or enmity, so why do you have to kill me? "
"You chose this path yourself, and you signed the contract yourself. No one forced you to sign, and no one helped you sign it. In addition, it seems that no one told you that going back to the bookstore to work will definitely lead to death."
There was an imperceptible sneer on the middle-aged uncle's face.
"Is not it?"
"Is that so?" the middle-aged uncle asked, "Did I say they are irresistible?"
Hearing what the middle-aged uncle said, Xia Qi suddenly became energetic. Even the hateful look he looked at the middle-aged uncle immediately turned into attentive and friendly:
"Quick, tell me how to deal with them!"
"No comment, because you need to figure it out on your own. As for some things about the company, if you can successfully become a regular person in the future, you will gradually know about it. Okay, take your mobile phone and leave later. I will also bring two newcomers who are in the probationary period."
Having said this, the middle-aged uncle deliberately approached Xia Qi and handed the phone to his hand. Then, as if he remembered something, he raised his head and said to Xia Qi:
"There are some things that secular forces cannot interfere with, so people like us exist."
With that said, the middle-aged uncle threw another bunch of car keys to Xia Qi.
"I'll give you your car keys..."
Xia Qi had no idea how he came out of the golden office building, or that his thoughts were completely immersed in the conversation he had just had with the middle-aged uncle.
Sitting on the stairs in front of the golden office building with his whole body aching, Xia Qi's mood was as hard to calm down as the rising tide of the sea.
However, this trip to the golden office building made him understand a lot of things.
The first is his own current situation.
There are only two choices before him, one is to go back to the bookstore and die, the other is not to go back to the bookstore and die.
Judging from the reminder given by the middle-aged uncle to him, the former should be a narrow escape from death, while the latter should be certain death if nothing unexpected happened.
Moreover, the middle-aged uncle seemed to know that he had the amulet on him, but he still came to this conclusion for him. It can be seen that even if his grandfather can come to help him, he may not be able to get through it unharmed.
What's more, he doesn't want his family to worry about him and let them suffer innocently.
In addition, he now understands the reason why he was haunted by ghosts. In all likelihood, it was because he passed the interview with that company and signed that damn "ghost" contract with it!
So now he had to obey that company's orders and return to Xinhua Bookstore.
In the end, he could only know the mysterious things about this company after he passed the probation period and became a full-time employee.
Although he has no idea how he will pass the probation period at the moment.
But it doesn't matter. Although he still has many doubts that have not been solved, at least he now understands his situation, and will not run into unknown panic like before.
Know what you should do now.
That is to go back to the Xinhua Bookstore to work the night shift honestly, and think of ways to resist ghosts and survive.
Although the middle-aged uncle did not tell him what to do to deal with ghosts, he did explain one thing to him, that is - ghosts are not completely irresistible.
In other words, as long as he finds the right method, he can still destroy them!
