Fear Collection

Xie Jinxi got up as usual. He turned on his phone to check the time. It was already 5:12 in the afternoon. According to usual, he should be able to sleep until 5:[-]. He was woken up by the sound from outside the door.

When he squinted to look at the phone, the old screen flickered, and a paragraph of text jumped out.

【Fifth World: Me in a Department Store】

[Task: Maintain normal work and life, and find my corresponding products]

[Description: I am an employee in this department store. I work in the department store. I use the salary I get to buy goods in the department store to support my body. I continue to work for the department store.

I often think, what is the difference between me and the products on the shelves?

Commodities go up and down the assembly line, and people stand beside the assembly line; commodities are placed in fixed positions, and people live in a cycle; commodities are sold in department stores, and people work in department stores; commodities are clearly marked, and people are secretly marked up the price.

So if I were a commodity, what kind of commodity would I be?Which one will it be?Where is it?What is the target price?Who will buy me?

Maybe it has something to do with what the department store has already taken from me. 】

【Work hard. 】

Xie Jinxi read it in a daze, thinking that she had encountered a strange sales advertisement again.

After all, various windows, notifications, and advertisements will always pop up in people's mobile phones, and they will come across them accidentally.

When he finished reading, the text disappeared.

Ok?

He didn't touch the screen?

Will the pop-up page disappear automatically this time?

If only all spam pushes could be like this.

Xie Jinxi didn’t pay attention to this strange information. If it’s quiet outside, he can seize the time to sleep for another 15 minutes. Don’t underestimate these 15 minutes. For a person like him who suffers from sleep deprivation for a long time, it can almost extend his life. up.

However, the sound coming from outside is getting louder and louder. The old apartment building has no sound insulation at all. As long as you stand in the corridor and talk loudly, you can almost hear the whole building clearly, not to mention the quarrel outside. .

Xie Jinxi turned over impatiently, and was forced to listen to the conversations of the people outside.

The first is a shrill female voice.

"Where the hell is this? I should have been in the hospital if I had an accident, or at home if I wasn't in the hospital? Which trash dump is this?"

"Are you human traffickers?"

"Let me go, I'm very famous, if I don't start the broadcast for a day, my fans will find out, when they call the police, you won't be able to escape..."

A rough male voice interrupted her.

"Shut up! We are not human traffickers, can you please keep your voice down! It's so annoying!"

However, this man's voice was louder than the previous female voice, and then a slightly calmer and lower volume male voice persuaded: "You all calm down and think about it, you have relevant information in your mind, I know you are very anxious, But please accept the reality..."

"So you don't accept it...anyway..."

His voice was not loud, and Xie Jinxi couldn't hear clearly later on.

However, the outside didn't quiet down, Xie Jinxi couldn't bear it anymore and sat up, walked quickly to the door and wanted to open the door to make the outside quieter, but stood in front of the door but hesitated.

The thin layer of paint on the iron door has almost peeled off, there are at least a few people outside who are arguing, and he is alone, not to mention that even if the outside is quiet now, he has no time to sleep.

Forget it.

Xie Jinxi sighed, went to wash up in a familiar way, then hurriedly fried two eggs for himself, sandwiched them in the promotional bread slices he bought, smeared a little salad dressing, and combined them into two simple sandwiches.

These two simple sandwiches and a bag of impending milk are his dinner.

That's right, dinner.

Xie Jinxi is an employee on duty in the clothing section of a department store. His working hours are from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] in the evening and from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] in the daytime, and his salary will be enough to support him alone.

The house he lives in is rented. It is very close to the department store, and it only takes 10 minutes to walk, so he can sleep until 05:30 in the evening, wash up in 10 minutes and finish a quick dinner, and then he has to go out.

After Xie Jinxi had dinner, he opened the door and went downstairs as usual, but when he reached the entrance of the building, he was shocked.

A young man who was nearly a head taller than him suddenly stopped him, and he almost ran into his arms because he was in a hurry to go to work.

The other party had a handsome face with tough outlines, Xie Jinxi thought it was some movie star when he first saw it.

Xie Jinxi couldn't help but look at him a few more times before asking suspiciously, "Sir, are you..."

The other party looked at Xie Jinxi with a gaze that was so deep that it was almost painful, which made Xie Jinxi feel uncomfortable all over, but at the same time felt that the other party seemed to be a person with a story.

But he can't listen to the story now, he has to go to work right away, or he will be late, and if he is late, he will be fired.

"Sorry, I have to go. I have to go to work and I'm going to be late."

After speaking, Xie Jinxi bypassed the other party and hurried towards the department store.

The shortest way to the department store where Xie Jinxi works is through a market.

This market is just like any ordinary messy market: the uneven ground is always full of sewage, and a black net is drawn above it to shade the sun and rain; all kinds of vegetable stalls, fruit stalls, and clothes stalls are placed on the ground, They didn't even deliberately avoid the sewage; the distance between the stalls was very close, densely packed in this small place, and there was not even much room for others to step down.

Xie Jinxi avoided the sewage all the way, walked through these stalls with ease, quickly came to the side entrance of the department store, and walked all the way to the clothing area.

When he arrived at the clothing area and saw the administrator, he opened the phone cover and took a look. At 5:58, it was another day when he was stuck at work.

Xie Jinxi sighed and walked over to sign in with the administrator.

The administrator handed the brochure in his hand to Xie Jinxi, and asked Xie Jinxi to sign his name at the check-in counter, and then told him tirelessly: "Before eight o'clock, you must go through the clothing area and make sure that all the clothes on the plastic models are removed. Come down, this is your job. Must, must be checked carefully, each one must be taken down. If there is one that has not been taken down, you will not use it tomorrow night!"

"have you understood?"

"Understood." Xie Jinxi could only reply in this way.

The administrator snatched the signed booklet from him and left, leaving Xie Jinxi facing the entire clothing area.

This clothing area specifically refers to the clothing area on the fourth floor. This department store has been built for almost 20 years. It may have been the most glorious and prosperous place back then, but with the economic decline of the old city, the traffic here has gradually decreased.

The department store does not have the money to carry out overall renovations, so the interior decoration still retains the condition of 20 years ago. The floor tiles are cracked and full of stains that cannot be scrubbed off. The peeling wall, the messy wires and the dusty ceiling lights all tell the oldness of this place.

But only the clothing area on the fourth floor is completely different. This is the only place that has been renovated and decorated. The floor tiles are clean, the crystal lights are bright, the shops have been redesigned, and several display windows have even been decorated facing the street.

The clothing area on the fourth floor occupies about half of the entire fourth floor, and the other half still retains traces of 20 years of time. The other half is a place for selling fabrics, bedding, curtains and other sundries.

Xie Jinxi only had two hours, so he hurriedly started from the first store and carefully looked at all the models, including those in the display window.

All clothing must be removed from the plastic mannequins, no extra items may be placed on the mannequins at night, and the mannequins must be reassembled.

Xie Jinxi doesn't know why the mall has such regulations, but this is why the mall hired him, this is his job.

There are a total of thirteen shops in the clothing area, counting the four plastic mannequins in the display window facing the street, there are a total of 67 plastic mannequins.

Xie Jinxi walked around three times in total, making sure that every plastic model had no clothes on it.

Then the next door suddenly darkened, Xie Jinxi, who was standing in the light, looked at the next door not far away, and he knew that it was eight o'clock.

Due to the aging of the electrical circuits in the shopping mall, serious indiscriminate connections, and lack of money to pay the electricity bill, the overhead lights are turned off in places other than the clothing area around [-] o'clock every night.Anyway, there are almost no customers here, and it won't be a big problem to turn off the overhead light.

To be honest, Xie Jinxi still doesn't understand why the department store has to renovate the clothing section alone. There are no customers here, and only decorating the clothing section can't attract more traffic. This is basically a loss-making business.

Xie Jinxi finished the inspection, half of his work today was completed, and the other half was to wait for the inspection at six o'clock tomorrow morning to make sure that all the plastic models had their clothes back on.

It's only eight o'clock now, and Xie Jinxi has to wait until nine o'clock before returning home from get off work.Of course, if he doesn't mind, he can also sleep in the clothing section. The next day, the shop staff will come and change the clothes for the model, and he will check again.

But to be honest, Xie Jinxi didn't want to stay in the clothing area at all, especially during the hour from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm.

The white plastic models stand under the cold white light. Their proportions are actually not the same as the human body. They are display models. In order to better display the clothes, the body proportions are very 'perfect'.

This kind of perfection looks more and more weird when it is not covered by clothes.

Xie Jinxi subconsciously avoided looking at those plastic models.

Xie Jinxi turned on his phone boredly, clicked on the page of the e-book that he hadn't finished before, and started to read it.

But looking at Xie Jinxi, I couldn't help but think of the strange message I just woke up in the evening. I couldn't help but click on the browsing history of the browser, look through the mailbox and push notifications, and try to find out where the message is. here.However, the browsing history is empty, there is no mailbox full of spam, and various notifications are not clicked.

This is impossible, although he was half asleep and half awake at the time, but he definitely remembered it clearly.Looking back now, I can actually recall every word, as if engraved in my mind.

Where did that message... come from?

Xie Jinxi kept pressing the flip button on the flip phone anxiously, but he couldn't find it. In the end, he could only choose to give up and open the e-book again to pass the time.

Looking at it, Xie Jinxi couldn't help raising his head to look around from time to time, he always felt as if something was watching him, that strange feeling lingered on him, but he couldn't find what was wrong.

……

While Xie Jinxi was at work, Muta went up to the sixth floor of the unit building and knocked on the door of Room 603.

The person who opened the door was an elite-looking young man. When he saw Muta, he first smiled and said, "Come in, everyone is waiting for you."

There are eight people in room 603 including Muta, five men and three women.

Muta's eyes swept over them one by one. These people were all the taskers he saw suddenly appearing in the corridor.

After Muta entered this new mission world, his first reaction was to find Xie Jinxi.

His memory still stays at the moment when the "broken moment" came, and the next moment he seamlessly switched and stood in the dilapidated corridor, surrounded by new taskers.

At that moment, his heart was completely gripped by the hand of fear. He was too afraid that Xie Jinxi would not appear in this world again. The relationship between him and Xie Jinxi was almost zero.It's just that his rationality told him that if, if Xie Jinxi is still a tasker and will appear in this world, then he must also be in this unit building.

So he decided to go downstairs to the entrance of the unit building, which must be passed, and wait for the person he was waiting for.

Seeing him turn around to leave, the missionaries in the corridor hurried up to the person who opened the door for him and asked him where he was going, but Muta didn't listen at all. In his eyes, these are not as important as Xie Jinxi. Don't want to waste time with them.

Finally, the person who opened the door for him called him and told him to gather at 603.

When Mu Ta arrived at the entrance of the unit building, he was determined to wait for Xie Jinxi even if he sat there all night, but fortunately, he waited for Xie Jinxi who was rushing downstairs in less than 10 minutes.

When he saw him running down, Muta seemed to see an angel flying towards him in a hurry. He managed to take a breath from the emotions that were about to drown him, but the next moment Xie Jinxi's words made him Pour back into cold water.

Xie Jinxi doesn't know him, he has no previous memories.

Xie Jinxi just walked around him and left.

Muta looked at his back and told himself, it doesn't matter, at least he still exists, and he is still... by his side.
