The Young Master has returned from the Infinite Game

Before his near-death, Chi Shen entered an infinite game. He vanquished tens of thousands of malevolent spirits, dodged covert and overt attacks from countless players, and finally emerged victorio...

Chapter 013: Fishing, Fishing, Enforcement, Law.

Perhaps to make it more eye-catching, the last line of the post was written in large bright red characters. Chi Shen looked more energetic just by looking at the blood-red characters.

He thought for a while with his heavy head propped up, and then asked, "Is this company going to go bankrupt as soon as I start working here?"

His shadow: "No."

Chi Shen sighed: "I hope that all the people working in their company are living people."

Shadow: “Yeah.”

In that death game, Chi Shen also had work experience. He did a lot of jobs, all kinds of things.

For example, he worked as a delivery man for Brain Flower, a midnight taxi driver, a clerk in a prosthetics store, and he even made dumplings in a breakfast shop, sold meat in a vegetable market, and worked part-time as a wizard for weddings and funerals.

All the places where he worked have gone bankrupt without exception, and even the copy he worked for has disappeared.

This left a huge psychological shadow on Chi Shen's working life. Even now, he is still a little worried that the company will go bankrupt.

It was not until he arrived at the Tengfei Building, took the elevator to the 14th floor, and saw that all the people entering and leaving Ledao Culture Company were alive that Chi Shen felt a little relieved.

Of course, I just felt a little relieved.

After all, from his perspective, this company doesn't look like a company from the real world at all.

Before stepping into the gate of Ledao Culture, in Chi Shen's perspective, the gate exuded a gloomy and ghostly aura, as if the door of a copy full of ghosts was opened, inviting him.

The sister standing at the front desk of Ledao Culture was also pale, with dark circles under her eyes, and looked very tired. Next to the counter, a dark shadow with wide eyes was squatting at the counter, sticking his head out and staring at the door.

Chi Shen paused at the door for a second, and he said softly, "Don't come out."

Ji Xingchen didn't say anything. Chi Shen felt him tugging at the corner of his clothes, and that's when he understood.

He explained his purpose to the front desk, and the girl at the front desk showed him the way in a hoarse voice. Then she lowered her head to look at the table. She seemed to be worried about something, but on her table was a stack of white papers.

Chi Shen walked slowly towards the interview room. It could be seen that Ledao Culture was a new company. The decoration was new and the green plants in the corner were full of vitality. If it weren't for the dark shadows hiding behind the green plants, Chi Shen would think this was a very good working environment.

All that could be seen of those shadows were a pair of eyes, which moved as Chi Shen walked. Their bodies were more like shadows drawn with pencils, swaying restlessly.

In the short walk from the gate to the interview room, Chi Shen had already seen three ghosts.

Will this company really not go bankrupt?

Chi Shen was the only person who came for the interview today. Before he even knocked on the door, the HR department took the initiative to open the door and welcomed him in. They also considerately poured him hot water and asked him to sit down.

Chi Shen observed the room as soon as he entered. There was also a ghost in this room, hiding in the ventilation duct. The ghost had only a pair of eyes with too much white, lying horizontally in the ventilation duct and observing the people in the room.

"Chi Shen, right?" The person in charge of recruitment was a man in his early thirties. He smiled very kindly and asked, "Could you introduce yourself first?"

Chi Shen skillfully recited the self-introduction that Ji Xingchen taught him. It can be seen that the HR was very satisfied and the smile on his face became more sincere.

"I see that you have experience as a software engineer in a large company on your resume, but this time you want to apply for a copywriting position. In fact, we also need software engineers now. Yours——"

The person next to him suddenly touched him. The man coughed and said, "Can you tell me why you want to switch to copywriting? Obviously, programming is more suitable for you."

Chi Shen said calmly: "Because of my hobby."

The man became interested: "Can you tell me more about it?"

"I'm a fan of ghost stories," Chi Shen suddenly lowered his voice, which made the already somewhat gloomy room even more eerie, but he didn't care at all and continued to talk to himself, "I like to explore the secrets of ghosts and monsters. I like horror novels. I often hang out in supernatural forums all day long. I have also played many horror games. I also passed the horror game made by Mr. Li. I like the ideas he wants to express, and I also like the depressing environment in the company. I think I should come here to work. I am needed here."

It sounds right at the beginning, but why does the latter part sound a bit off?

The man in charge of recruitment felt cold sweat on his forehead. He forced himself to ignore the strange feeling and said, "I still hope you can consider it..."

"Not considering it." Before he could finish, Chi Shen decisively refused and used his trump card, "I want to be a man with a thick head and live to be sixty years old."

Applying for the copywriting planning position was the result of Chi Shen's careful consideration. He felt that as a person who had played real horror games for hundreds of years, it would be easy for him to write dialogues for horror games and design a BOSS. This was a job that suited his actual situation and expertise very well!

The man seemed to think about it, and after a while he said: "As for the planning, our Chief Li will be here soon, let him talk to you."

Li Zhuce is the Mr. Li that Chi Shen mentioned before. His real name is Li Xu, and he is also the producer of the horror game that Chi Shen played last night.

Before he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door. A young man with a tired face stood at the door. Chi Shen knew that this was Li Xu. The collar of his clothes seemed to be too tight today, making him feel uncomfortable. He loosened his collar and walked into the room with tired and heavy steps.

After sitting down opposite Chi Shen, Li Xu pulled his collar again, stretched his neck, and then looked at Chi Shen.

Chi Shen was also looking at him.

Ordinary people might think that Li Xu was just tired because he worked overtime, but in Chi Shen's eyes, it was another situation.

A woman with dry skin and wearing a floral dress was lying behind Li Xu. Her skinny arms were wrapped around Li Xu's neck. The woman's head was hanging on Li Xu's chest, and her long hair was swaying gently as Li Xu walked.

Beside Li Xu's legs, a little girl without the lower body was pulling at the corner of his clothes with one hand and the skirt of her floral dress with the other, looking at Chi Shen curiously.

That’s not all. The Buddhist beads on Li Xu’s wrist emitted golden light, protecting him, but a hand stretched out from his pocket and suppressed the light of the Buddhist beads.

These ghosts and objects achieved a strange harmony in Li Xu's body. They existed together but restrained each other. It seemed that because of this, Li Xu was still alive and well even though he was haunted by hundreds of ghosts.

"Do you have children?" Chi Shen spoke first before Li Xu could speak.

Li Xu was stunned for a moment, seemingly not understanding why he asked that, but still answered: "No, I am still unmarried."

Chi Shen nodded, looking a little uneasy, but still said: "I really like the horror game you made..."

While speaking, he looked over Li Xu's shoulder from time to time, his pupils trembling slightly, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying -

The female ghost lying on Li Xu's shoulder slowly raised her head and looked straight into Chi Shen's heart. Her dry and wrinkled lips split open, revealing a horrible smile.

She opened her mouth and said silently: You. See. Me.

"Chi Shen? Chi Shen?"

The man who interviewed him earlier shouted several times before Chi Shen suddenly came back to his senses. He looked at the man, managed to calm down, and smiled with a pale face, "What did you just say?"

Li Xu looked at him strangely: "You can come to work tomorrow. You can try copywriting for a while. If it doesn't work out, you can transfer to another position."

"Okay, I understand." Although Chi Shen was looking at them, his eyes were a little distracted, as if he had just recovered from his fright, "I'll come tomorrow."

Watching Chi Shen leave the interview room, the man asked, "What happened to him?"

For some reason, Li Xu suddenly felt that his breathing became much smoother. He exhaled, and his expression became a little worried: "I hope he can do this for a longer time. We are so short of people right now."

After leaving Ledao Culture, Chi Shen was not in a hurry to return to the Bai family's old house. He needed to give others a chance.

Having not enjoyed the life in the world for a long time, Chi Shen chose to have a meal first, and then found a cinema to watch a movie. During this period, he did not say a word to his shadow, and Ji Xingchen did not show up on his own initiative.

It was not until ten o'clock in the evening that Chi Shen finally got on the last bus back to the Bai family's old house.

The bus arrived and Chi Shen got off. He did not rush back, but sat down on the bench at the platform. This bus stop located in the countryside was deserted and empty, with only a street lamp emitting a dim light.

Like a traveler who was kicked out of his home, Chi Shen sat dejectedly on the platform with his head down, as if he was thinking about where to spend the night.

A dark shadow slowly approached the platform. It was a woman in a floral dress. Her skin was dry and wrinkled. No one could be as thin as her, unless she was not a human.

"I found you." The voice of the woman in the floral dress sounded like sandpaper rubbing against each other. She had great difficulty in speaking, but she seemed very happy.

Chi Shen's shoulders trembled slightly. He looked like he was shaking with fear, but he was deceiving himself and didn't dare to look up.

She stretched out her hand, and with her cracked fingers she pinched the neck of the handsome man on the bench. Her hoarse laughter echoed on the platform: "Don't you have anywhere to go? Come with me, let me drain your blood, and you will become as cold as me, so that you won't be afraid anymore."

Her hand suddenly stopped.

The handsome man on the bench raised his head. There was no trace of fear on his face. He was even smiling!

He was trying so hard to hold back his laughter that his shoulders were shaking!

The girl in the floral dress felt something was wrong and immediately took a step back.

A pale hand reached out from the shadow of the beautiful man and grabbed the ankle of the floral skirt.

"Do you know why I didn't go home?"

Chi Shen tilted his head and looked at the floral skirt, smiling: "Because I was afraid you couldn't get in."
