Ghost World Office

Under the faint morning light, Lu Yi had no clothes on his upper body, and only a bath towel around his lower body.

The drops of water dripping from the hair that hadn't been dried in time fell on his chest with obvious training marks, shining brightly.

"I'm sorry..." Lu Yi apologized again, walked to the edge of the sofa, grabbed a bathrobe and put it on his body.

Just when Lu Yi turned his back to Tao Ye, Tao Ye noticed that there was a tattoo on Lu Yi's back that stretched from his neck to his waist——

is a thin line.

Where have I seen it... A sense of familiarity welled up in Tao Ye's heart.

For a while, Tao Ye couldn't think of where he had seen this line.

Lu Yi fastened the belt of the bathrobe, walked barefoot to the bar on the side of the living room, turned his head to look at Tao Ye through the morning light that gradually brightened in the living room, and asked with a smile:

"any drinks?"

The bright light illuminated Lu Yi's face, his wet hair was casually brushed back, completely different from the meticulous director Tao Ye usually saw in the Human World Office.

"Soda." Tao Ye felt as if the air had been coaxed by a heater, and his face was dry and hot.

Tao Ye didn't have any special preference for men, he never thought that he didn't need the emotions between the sexes or the same sex.

But when Lu Yi is not wearing clothes, he almost completely conforms to Tao Ye's aesthetics of human beings.

This made Tao Ye feel inexplicably irritated.

Lu Yi put a glass of soda with ice cubes on the coffee table, and motioned Tao Ye to come and sit down.

Tao Ye tried his best not to look awkward, sat on the corner of the sofa, reached for the cup, and took a long gulp.

"I'm here to report to you." Tao Ye put down his cup and looked at Lu Yi's face.

Lu Yi sat down on the other side of the sofa, raised his hand to shave the forehead hair hanging in front of his eyes, and waited for Tao Ye to continue talking.

The Human World Office has a rule that if a member is involved in the law enforcement or judicial organs of the human society during the process of processing time, he must immediately report the process to the direct leader in person.

This is a rigid rule of the Human World Office, and it is to prevent the Human World Office from getting too involved in human affairs.

Most of the Human World Office members will give up the task directly when encountering this situation.But Tao Ye had to bite the bullet to help the girl get rid of her obsession for 1 yuan.

Tao Ye reported everything that happened today to Lu Yi in detail.

After listening, Lu Yi thought for a while and said:

"no problem."

Tao Ye heaved a sigh of relief, he couldn't afford to violate the rules.Another punishment, he didn't even have a meal.

The sky is already bright, and Tao Ye still has class today.

He got up from the sofa and said to Lu Yi, "I'll leave first if there's no problem."

Lu Yi asked, "Do you need me to see you off?"

Tao Ye glanced at Lu Yi, then quickly withdrew his gaze, and categorically refused:

"No, I'll take the subway back."

"There are a lot of people on the subway at this point, and I happen to be going to the office too." Lu Yi got up from the sofa and motioned Tao Ye to sit in the living room and wait for him.

For some reason, looking at Lu Yi's face with a warm smile, Tao Ye sat down on the sofa again by accident, and watched Lu Yi go into the cloakroom to change clothes.

From the cloakroom came the sound of shuffling clothes being changed, followed by the sound of a hair dryer blowing hair. These noises made Tao Ye very irritable.

The morning light was clear and dazzling, and they fell on Tao Ye's eyelids, making Tao Ye feel sleepy and unbearable.

Even for young people, after staying up all night, the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are not very bearable.Tao Ye felt that he was about to ascend to immortality.

"Let's go." Lu Yi changed his clothes and came out of the cloakroom.

Tao Ye barely supported his sleepy body, got up from the sofa, and walked towards the door.

The two went out together and took the elevator.

I don't know what perfume Lu Yi used, Tao Ye didn't feel choking, but he always felt groggy after smelling it.

He leaned on the elevator railing, raised heavy eyelids, glanced at Tao Ye, suppressed the nausea caused by staying up late in his chest, and complained:

"I don't understand why you wear perfume."

Lu Yi noticed Tao Ye's strangeness, frowned slightly, and asked:

"Physical discomfort?"

"No." Tao Ye turned his head to one side, leaned on his shoulder, and said sickly.

Lu Yi reached out and touched Tao Ye's forehead, it was hot.

Tao Ye didn't have any more strength to dodge, but felt that Lu Yi's fingers were slightly cold, and when they landed on his forehead, it caused a strong cold feeling.

He shrank back, squinting his eyes and glanced at the buildings and the sky flying upwards outside the glass of the elevator.

Ding!

The elevator goes to the lobby on the first floor.

Tao Ye braced his body and walked out of the elevator. The fragrance in the lobby on the first floor was very strong. He pinched his nose, and a wave of nausea surged in his chest.

When the security guard saw Lu Yi and Tao Ye coming down, he hurriedly greeted them from a distance.

"What, are you still uncomfortable?" Lu Yi looked sideways at Tao Ye and asked in a low voice.

Tao Ye thumped his chest and took a deep breath, but he was still panicked.

At this moment, Tao Ye felt his brain buzzing, and his body fell backwards uncontrollably.

……

Tao Ye was dreaming again.

There is no color in dreams, the world is gray and white.

It was a silent midnight, and Tao Ye was still a killer in his previous life.Dressed in black, he sneaked into a villa in a certain city in Southeast Asia.

The structure of the villa is very complicated, and he shuttles through the spiral staircase and the long and narrow corridor.

The surrounding area was very quiet, and Tao Ye could hear the beating of his own heart.

Finally, Tao Ye came to a door.

Intuition told him that his assassination target tonight was inside this door.He gently pushed open the door, and a damp woody aroma came over his face.

The lights in the room were not turned on, the curtains were not drawn, and there was a road outside the window.Cars passing by on the road roared by, their lights briefly illuminating the room.

A person was sitting on the chair by the window, wearing a dark silk shirt, completely oblivious to Tao Ye's entry.

Tao Ye clenched the dagger in his hand, and slowly approached that person.The cork floor of the room was covered with a wool carpet, and Tao Ye could well hide the sound of his footsteps.

He stood behind the man, held his breath, raised the dagger in his hand, and prepared to stab the man's neck with all his strength.

At this moment, a heavy truck roared past the road outside the window, and the light from its headlights instantly filled the room.

At this moment, Tao Ye could clearly see a section of skin exposed under the back collar of the man's shirt——

It was a long, thin line tattoo that started at the neck and went straight to the back covered by the shirt.

Well!

Tao Ye took a deep breath and opened his eyes.

The warm yellow light filled his surroundings——

He was lying in a well-decorated room surrounded by warm colors, the curtains were drawn tightly, and it was impossible to see whether it was day or night.

He felt his whole body was sweaty and sticky.

Lu Yi...

At this moment, Tao Ye finally remembered the identity of the man in the dream.

That was the only person he failed to assassinate in his several years of assassin career.

Tao Ye's assassination is known for his clean and ruthless playing with the victim, which made him very famous in the killer circle in Southeast Asia.

But Tao Ye missed the assassination that night.

After cutting the man's shoulder, Tao Ye was knocked unconscious by the man's security guards without even seeing the man's face clearly. When he woke up, he was thrown beside the road in the outer suburbs.

What is very strange is that since he was assassinated by Tao Ye, the man disappeared and did not seek revenge from Tao Ye and his godfather.

Tao Ye never believed that people would be so tolerant, so after being killed by his enemy, he always felt that the enemy who killed him was the man with the tattoo on his back.

Thinking of this, Tao Ye felt as if his whole body had fallen into an ice cellar.He gritted his teeth and propped himself up on his elbows, trying to get up from the bed.

The door of the room clicked open, and Lu Yi appeared by the door with a bowl of porridge, and looked at Tao Ye with a smile:

"feel better now?"

Tao Ye froze in place when he wanted to get up, he forced a smile, and said with a blunt smile:

"much better."

Don't think about it, Tao Ye is at Lu Yi's house.The killer fainted in the downstairs lobby of the victim's house and was still lying on the bed of the victim's house.

Lu Yi walked to Tao Ye's window with the porridge, dragged a small bed table from the side, put it in front of Tao Ye, put the porridge on the table, and said softly:

"You were so tired that you passed out in the lobby in the morning."

Tao Ye nodded dully, his eyes fixed on the bowl of porridge in front of him.

The white porridge was cooked very soft, and fresh apples were added inside. The whole bowl of porridge looked crystal clear, steaming under the soft light.

The combination of apples and porridge... Tao Ye was completely stunned.

When his mother was still alive, she often made this kind of porridge for Tao Ye's brothers and sisters, calling it health preservation.

At that time, Tao Ye scoffed at this, thinking it was a dark dish.But after his mother passed away, he never had such porridge again.

Tao Ye tried his best to hide his emotions, and raised his eyes to look at Lu Yi: "Did you read the materials of my previous life again?"

Lu Yi was startled, then smiled:

"Why do you think so?"

Tao Ye didn't speak anymore, he was not feeling well.Since Lu Yi has read the information on his previous life, it proves that Lu Yi was a killer to him in his previous life, so that he knows who he killed and who he didn't kill.

"It's nothing." Tao Ye turned his eyes back to the bowl of porridge, and began to think about what to do next.

"You are very nervous." Lu Yi sat down beside the bed and reminded.

Tao Ye raised his hand to wipe off the sweat on his neck, lowered his head and did not make a sound.

The room was terribly quiet. Under the illumination of the standing lamp beside the bed, Lu Yi's shadow was elongated obliquely and hit the quilt covered by Tao Ye, leaving a dark shadow.

"Where did you go after I killed you?" Tao Ye was still very weak, and he tried to hang his spirit with the force of law, and asked in a deep voice.

As if he didn't expect Tao Ye to ask such a question, the smile in the corner of Lu Yi's eyes froze slightly. He thought for a moment, and his tone was still flat and gentle:

"You didn't kill me."

"Then let me ask you another way." Tao Ye raised his eyelids and looked at Lu Yi, "Where did you go after I assassinated you?"
