Rong Zhen died unexpectedly and was bound to a small, newly-released system. In their rookie phase, the person and the system couldn't snag any good missions, so they could only go to novel wor...
Chapter 133: Poor Ghosts Taking Advantage of Zombie Passengers
At eight o'clock in the evening, night fell and the lights outside gradually came on.
Rongzhen had been waiting until now on purpose and could no longer sit still. Seeing that the time was almost up, she quickly packed up and left work.
There are many people in the company who are working until this time like her, and some are even determined to work overtime until ten o'clock.
They all intended to stay, so pretending to work hard to show the new boss was an alternative way of showing loyalty.
If it were in the past, when the female ghost was still there, they would definitely not dare to do this, but now the biggest hidden danger has been captured, and the rules that were once established because of it are naturally broken.
The new boss must be very happy about this. As the saying goes, a new emperor appoints new ministers. If the boss above changes, the rules below must also change accordingly.
As for whether the employees are happy about it or not, only they themselves know. Anyway, there are quite a few people who have started writing resumes secretly, and there are far more than the handsome men and beautiful women who were admired by Wang Qingqing at the welcome ceremony.
So for various reasons, everyone worked overtime today.
In order to take control of the company as soon as possible, the new boss Shen Zhi stayed so late. He was accompanied by his childhood sweetheart Wang Qingqing, which touched him deeply.
Chen Zhi said distressedly: "I told you earlier that you could go back first, and you don't have to stay here with me. Look, you are exhausted now."
Wang Qingqing shook her head: "You must be so lonely here alone. I want to accompany you."
Shen Zhigao raised his head: "Huh, are you here to accompany me, or do you want to see handsome men and beautiful women?"
Wang Qingqing said softly, "I just glanced at you a little too much. Look at you..."
The two of them were walking in front and flirting, but unfortunately they were overheard by Rong Zhen and others who were following not far behind them.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, winked at each other, and had different reactions, but they all spontaneously slowed down their movements and pace, keeping a distance from the two people in front.
The two people in front didn't notice what was happening behind them, or if they did, they wouldn't care.
The two childhood sweethearts walked towards the parking lot affectionately, and just went in a different direction from Rongzhen and the others.
After going their separate ways, the tense nerves of several people relaxed and they began to whisper with their companions about the new boss's love life, especially about him and his childhood sweetheart.
Rongzhen did not participate in it, but during the short journey with them, she pricked up her ears and listened to a lot of their gossip about the two people.
I heard that Chen Zhi and Wang Qingqing not only have a good relationship as childhood sweethearts, but their parents and elders are also very optimistic about them. Maybe after Chen Zhi takes over the company and his career stabilizes, the two will talk about marriage.
I don’t know if the company’s employees will get red envelopes by then.
This is a question that other people are concerned about, but Rongzhen's focus is somewhat different from theirs.
Judging from the way Wang Qingqing and Shen Zhi talk and act when they are together, it should be true that they have feelings for each other and their relationship is very good. They are about to talk about getting married, so it can't be fake.
So how did she end up with the hero? Was it because her childhood sweetheart couldn't compare to a man who fell from heaven, or was it because of her physical condition that she needed the hero's close protection and didn't want to bring trouble to her childhood sweetheart?
I feel this is worth discussing.
Rongzhen was thinking idly and had unknowingly strayed from the conversation with her colleagues.
They lived nearby and walked back chatting and laughing.
And Rongzhen still has to take the bus.
But she didn't have any money in her pocket, so she could only come up with some crooked ways to deal with the situation, such as trying to get the wool from a certain car.
This was also the reason why she waited until so late to get off work, worried that if she left early, she would miss the lively last bus like last time.
With the yellow crystal bracelet, her life is relatively safe. In addition, as a reserve cat monster, Rong Zhen is not worried that her wool-pulling trip will go wrong.
If she really encounters a tough guy, it would be a good opportunity for her to test out other strange strengths and build a reputation for herself in advance.
She learned from the plot that the world of ghost stories also has its own underworld, and that the well-known and well-known weirdos live a much more comfortable and happy life than the nameless and unknown ones.
In order to have a better life after becoming a cat monster, Rongzhen had to make plans in advance. Making money was not his main purpose.
Also, don’t forget that in the first story mission, she is a weird little boss!
Since they are all BOSS, no matter how small they are, they must have some fame and strength, otherwise how can they be called BOSS.
All in all, to put it simply, she had multiple plans and purposes for taking that strange last bus, and it wasn't just because she was too poor, ahem.
Having prepared herself mentally, Rongzhen didn't wait on the platform for long before the person she was waiting for appeared dimly in the night.
It was still in the same shabby and paint-chipped appearance as the last time I saw it. When the car slowly stopped, it shook as if it was about to fall apart. The door opened with a harsh creaking sound, and dim lights were projected from inside the car, attracting people to get in and take a look.
This is the charm mind skill brought by the weirdness of the last bus.
But it didn't work on Rongzhen.
Last time, before she started transforming, the pain from her tailbone could wake her up. Besides, she had already started to mutate this time, so naturally she wouldn't be affected.
Her tailbone no longer felt a sting when she got on the bus. Only the fur ball behind her butt shook twice, probably to remind her that there was something wrong with the bus. But perhaps considering that it was her own wish, she didn't make a big fuss.
The citrine bracelet on her wrist did become warm, but fortunately it did not glow. She tied it tightly and hid it under her sleeve.
As she stepped into the car, Rong Zhen felt a chill coming over her, as if she were in a tomb. The bone-chilling chill mixed with the smell of decaying corpses lingered around her nose and all over her body, trying to corrode and devour her.
Unfortunately, the topaz flashed, and the bone-chilling chill instantly receded like a tide, and instead, strands of warmth surged from the wrist to all parts of the body.
Swish—the driver and passengers in the car all turned their heads and looked over with expressionless faces.
Before leaving get off work, Rongzhen asked Secretary Yao for a pack of coffee and drank it before going downstairs. Now he was high on caffeine and was not scared when he saw so many strange people with pale faces and stiff sitting postures. He just felt that apart from their ugly faces, they at least looked like human beings.
Not to mention that they looked a bit like the zombies in her imagination - the legendary specialty of her hometown, which made her feel a little familiar when she first met them.
Thinking of this, Rongzhen was no longer afraid and her mentality became calmer. She took the initiative to wave and say hello: "Hi, good evening everyone O(∩_∩)O"
Zombie passengers: “…(⊙o⊙)!”
No one responded, still staring at her with blank expressions.
Rong Zhen didn't take it as an offense and asked the driver, "Brother, is this car going to XX residential complex in the urban village?"
The driver had a zombie-like face and his mouth didn't move, but his voice sounded like sandpaper rubbing against stone: "Go ahead, give me the money."
Rongzhen, who has no money: "..."
Are you kidding me? This kind of car costs money?
"Can you please not pay me? Let me take a ride first to experience it, and I'll make up for it next time."
Hearing such shameless words, the driver's zombie face turned even paler, the car door slammed shut, and all the zombies in the car opened their mouths and revealed their fangs.
Rongzhen was frightened, and the hairs on his body seemed to explode. He took a step back involuntarily and opened his mouth to meow.
Well……
The zombies froze, their eyes wide as copper bells.
Rongzhen realized it belatedly and quickly covered her mouth, not wanting to touch the sharp fangs on both sides.
Well, to be precise, they are immature canine teeth, or cat teeth. There are four of them in total, top and bottom. I don’t know when they grew out.
Maybe they were stressed out by the fright just now, so they all popped out at once. No wonder my gums were a little itchy just now.
As for the meow that comes out of your instinct, please be sure to ignore it.
She definitely meant "woof," "meow" was just a slip of the tongue!
"Dead kitten." The driver spat out three words coldly, and a hint of ridicule seemed to flash across his expressionless pale face.
Rong Zhen struggled to retract his fangs and protested, "We don't attack with cat bodies, big brother."
The driver turned his head and ignored her, but he didn't drive her away.
Rongzhen took it as his consent, ran to the rear door and chose a good place to get off, repeatedly reminding the driver to stop when he arrived at the destination.
After she sat down, the zombie passengers who had been looking at her with their copper bell eyes and pale faces finally turned their heads away and stopped looking at her.
Just as the car was about to start, the closed door was suddenly knocked from outside.
Swish, swish—all the zombies and a cat looked towards the front door of the car.
In full view of everyone, the car door banged open, and two handsome men and beautiful women walked in, holding hands and talking non-stop.
The man looked puzzled. While helping the girl get into the car, he complained helplessly, "Really? It shouldn't have broken down earlier or later, but it had to break down at this time. And I have to force you to ride in a car like this."
The woman came up with her skirt lifted, and said with a gentle smile, "It was an accident. There's nothing we can do about it. It's nice to take the bus every now and then. Please accompany me to relive the memories of my school days."
The man's expression brightened a little after hearing this, but when he saw the shabby equipment inside the car, he was still dissatisfied and said, "This is too shabby. I think we should get off and ask our driver to come pick us up."
The woman shook his hand. "It's so late. Don't bother them. Just stay with me, okay?"
Since Qingmei has begged him so much, of course he will agree.
Chen Zhi flicked Wang Qingqing's forehead helplessly and responded lovingly: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to Qingqing."
Yes, the new duo seeking death are none other than the novel’s heroine Wang Qingqing and her childhood sweetheart male supporting role Chen Zhi.
The car was clearly about to leave, but they still managed to get on it at the last moment. I have to say that the heroine Wang Qingqing's monster-absorbing physique is really weird.
It's not that the monster is attracted to her, but that she is the one who attracts the monster, right?
Seeing them get on the bus, put in the coins, and start looking around to choose a seat, Rongzhen quickly withdrew his gaze and looked at them, as if he didn't know them at all.
We don't know why a big CEO and a delicate young lady would carry coins with them when taking the bus. Anyway, just ignore all the strange things and stay away from them, so that Chi Mao won't be affected by anything that happens.
Therefore, Rongzhen calmed down, lowered her head and stopped looking at them.
Wang Qingqing noticed something and looked over in the direction of the remaining sight. When she saw Rongzhen, her eyes lit up and she planned to sit over here.
Chen Zhi knew at a glance that her little problem had come back, so he held her tightly and said, "It's crowded in the back, let's sit in the front."
As he said that, he pulled Wang Qingqing to sit in the two empty seats behind the driver.
Wang Qingqing smiled helplessly and gently scolded him: "You~"
The moment the two sat down, the dull eyes of the zombie passengers all fell on them, just like how Rong Zhen looked at her when she came up, like hungry wolves looking at their prey, extremely greedy.
Rongzhen was not the one being noticed in this way, but she couldn't help but touch the goose bumps that appeared on her arms.
She touched the zombie guy next door and couldn't control his drool which dripped onto her clothes.
Rongzhen: ...Tie Q!
