Xia Qi didn't tell his mother what happened to him last night, for the simple reason that he didn't want his mother to worry.

But then again, even if he told his mother, his mother, as an ordinary high school Chinese teacher, couldn't help at all.

Of course, if you want to say that the most cheating person belongs to his grandfather, because he doesn't travel early or late, he has to choose the one who is in trouble and needs help urgently. And the worst thing is that he can't contact anyone at all.

Xia Qi's grandfather is an old man with a very eccentric personality, and he also has a very apt nickname in the circle of friends - old naughty boy. However, although he is an old naughty boy, he has a stubborn temper, and he wants to do whatever he wants, regardless of whether his family agrees or not, whether his friends want to or not.

Sitting in the speeding taxi, Xia Qi thought about it all the way groggy, but when he got out of the taxi, he forgot all the things he had just thought.

Coming to the golden office building again, Xia Qi has long lost the excitement he had when he came last time, only uneasiness and apprehension remain.

Speaking of which, he will decide to come back here again, and getting his phone is only one of the aspects, as for the real reason, he hopes that the middle-aged uncle can help him solve his doubts.

Although there was no evidence to show it, he always felt that his terrible encounter in the past two days was definitely related to the middle-aged uncle, no, rather, to that mysterious company.

With a stomach full of questions, the elevator that Xia Qi took unknowingly came to the 33rd floor where the company was located.

However, just like the last time he came here, as soon as he stepped out of the elevator with his front foot, he found that the middle-aged uncle was already standing opposite and waiting for him.

"Come with me."

The middle-aged uncle still doesn't talk much, and he can be simple. After seeing Xia Qi get out of the elevator, he turned around and walked aside.

"Grass, why don't you die!"

Xia Qi pouted unhappily, but he still followed behind the middle-aged uncle, and kept looking around in the process.

In fact, there is nothing to consider, because it is just an ordinary office area, and the decoration is more luxurious at most. It's not the kind of transparent workstations that are connected one after the other, but the kind of independent office with walls and doors.

So who are the people working in these offices, or whether there are people in these offices, Xia Qi is actually completely unclear.

didn't go far with the middle-aged uncle, and Xia Qi followed the middle-aged uncle into a luxuriously decorated office.

The office is very spacious, and there are many calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls around it, from which it is not difficult to see the preferences of the middle-aged uncle.

didn't ask the middle-aged uncle for anything, Xia Qi sat on the sofa very consciously after coming in, and then said straight to the point:

"Let's not talk about the mobile phone for the time being, I have a few questions below that I must get answers from you!"

Xia Qi's words can be described as categorical, and he does not give the middle-aged uncle any room for refusal at all. Of course, as for whether the middle-aged uncle will ignore him completely, that's another matter.

"What do you want to ask?" The middle-aged uncle replied in a calm tone after hearing this.

"I want to know you, and what your company does!" Xia Qi voiced his first doubt.

"You are not qualified to know this now, I can't answer you." The middle-aged uncle refused very simply.

Seeing that the middle-aged uncle refused to answer, the fire in Xia Qi's heart suddenly came out again:

"I can't answer that, and I'm not qualified to know that! All right...... I'm going to ask you a question right now, you come and tell me, what can you tell me? ”

The middle-aged uncle looked at Xia Qi who was angry with deep eyes, and after a short silence, he said slowly:

"I'll just say it once, I hope you don't interrupt me."

Xia Qi nodded impatiently after hearing this, if there was nothing wrong, he would naturally not interrupt for no reason.

"I think the night you were at the Xinhua Bookstore, as well as last night, you should have encountered strange events that you couldn't understand. Or rather, they've all bumped into the hell, right? ”

"You know these things?"

Hearing the middle-aged uncle directly tell him what happened in the past two days, Xia Qi couldn't help but exclaim, but thinking of the middle-aged uncle's previous words, he hurriedly closed his mouth again and motioned for the middle-aged uncle to continue.

The middle-aged uncle's voice paused, and then he said:

"I can only give you a reminder, of course, you can also interpret it as advice.

If you don't go back to work tonight and find a way to complete your trial period, then you will definitely not be able to escape tonight. Although you have some "gadgets" on you.

I think you'll be able to understand what I mean. ”

Xia Qi looked at the middle-aged uncle a little blankly, first nodded woodenly, and then asked uncertainly:

"You mean to say that the reason why I hit the 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 again:

"Does that mean that as long as I honestly go back to duty at the bookstore, I won't hit 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, and he clutched his heart with an ugly face, taking deep breaths continuously. After a while, he said with difficulty:

"That bookstore will be haunted at night, right, as for that ghost, it should be Zhang Xiaoshun. The corpses I saw that night must have been brutally murdered by him.

I couldn't escape from it originally, but it was probably the ghost jade amulet that my grandfather gave me that worked, so it saved my life at that time. ”

The more he talked, the more unstable Xia Qi's mood became, and in the end it directly 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 it honest that you want to kill me?

Have I sinned against you before, or have I sinned against your children? If you have no grievances, do you have to get me to death! ”

"You chose this path by yourself, and the contract was signed by yourself, no one forced you to sign it, and no one helped you sign it. In addition, no one seems to have told you that going back to duty at the bookstore must be a dead end. ”

The middle-aged uncle's face showed a sneer imperceptibly.

"Isn't it?"

"Is it?" The middle-aged uncle asked rhetorically, "Did I say that they can't be resisted?" ”

Hearing the middle-aged uncle say this, Xia Qi suddenly came to his senses, and even the hateful gaze that looked at the middle-aged uncle immediately changed to a courteous friendliness:

"Quick, tell me what to do with them!"

"I don't have to comment, because it's up to you to figure it out, and as for some things about the company, if you can successfully "turn positive" in the future, you will know it slowly. Okay, leave with your phone, and I'll bring two new people on probation later. ”

Speaking of which, the middle-aged uncle deliberately approached Xia Qi, and then handed the mobile phone to him. After that, as if he remembered something, he raised his head and said to Xia Qi:

"There are some things that worldly forces can't interfere with, that's why people like us exist."

As he spoke, the middle-aged uncle threw Xia Qi a bunch of car keys again.

"Your car keys, give you back ......"

Xia Qi didn't know how he came out of the golden office building, or his mind was 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 a sore body, Xia Qi's mood was as difficult to calm as the rising tide of the sea.

However, this trip to the golden office building made him clear a lot of things.

The first is his own current situation.

There are only two options in front of him, one is to go back to the bookstore to die, and the other is not to go back to the bookstore and wait for death.

Judging from the middle-aged uncle's reminder to him, the former should be nine deaths, and the latter should be certain if there is no accident.

Moreover, the middle-aged uncle seemed to know that he had a talisman on him, but he still came to this conclusion for him, which shows that his grandfather can come over to help him, and he may not be able to survive unharmed.

What's more, he doesn't want his family to worry about him and let them innocently suffer.

In addition, he now has some understanding of the reason why he is haunted by ghosts. Ten of you ** is because he passed the interview with that company and signed that damn "ghost" contract with it!

So now he has to obey the company's dispatch and return to Xinhua Bookstore.

In the end, all the mysteries about this company can only be known after he has passed the probationary period and become a full-time employee.

Although he had no idea what he was going to do to get through the probationary period at the moment.

But it doesn't matter, although he still has many doubts that have not been solved, but at least he is clear about his situation now, and he will no longer be in the panic of the unknown as before.

Know what you should be doing right now.

That is, honestly go back to Xinhua Bookstore to work the night shift, and think of a way to resist the ghosts and survive from them.

Although the middle-aged uncle did not tell him what to do to deal with ghosts, he did make one thing clear to him, and that was that ghosts are not completely irresistible.

In other words, if he finds the right way, he can destroy them as well!
