Chapter 382 is definitely not an S-rank mission.



Cheng Jingru walked over, dispelled the yin energy from the straight-haired girl, and asked, "What exactly happened? Why are you stuck here?"

It turns out that these people were all from the company's finance department.

The finance office is in a separate room with access control, so ordinary employees can't get in at all.

It's unclear whether the employee who made the notification just casually called out at the door, but these people didn't hear it at all and were still busy working overtime.

When the straight-haired girl wanted to go to the restroom, she came out and saw the empty office, which made her feel scared. She called for the hair clipper and the tall, thin guy to accompany her to the restroom.

The tall, thin man was standing guard at the door and turned on all the switches for the row of lights by the door, while the two girls went into the adjacent cubicle.

The three people kept talking loudly, trying to dispel their fear.

It wasn't until a knocking sound came from the partition next to her that the straight-haired girl subconsciously looked down.

A hand reached out from the gap below.

She subconsciously assumed the girl with the shark clip had realized the stall was out of toilet paper and was asking her for some. She quickly tore off a piece and handed it to her, while also complaining that Song Chongwen was stingy, which made the administration so strict about toilet paper, not even replacing it when it was all used up.

The girl with the shark clip: "Don't you have any tissues over there? I'll give you some."

After saying that, the straight-haired girl immediately stopped complaining.

She heard her heart pounding, and although the shark clip was clearly on her right, the hand that had just reached out was on her left.

There was no one on the left when they first came in.

The straight-haired girl was so frightened that her hands and feet went numb. She instinctively tried to grab the hand that the shark clip was reaching for, but she suddenly grabbed nothing.

Seemingly knowing that she had noticed something was wrong, the pale hand reached out again from the left cubicle, and this time it stretched out longer and longer, grabbing her ankle.

The straight-haired girl screamed in fright, and the shark clipper and the tall, thin guy instantly realized something was wrong.

The two rushed over and knocked on the door, but found that they couldn't open it no matter what they did.

Just after the tall, thin man entered the restroom, the lights went out with a few snaps, plunging the brightly lit restroom into darkness.

The door opened, and a figure dragged the straight-haired girl out.

Even in the darkness, they could still recognize him; it was Xia Wei.

The shark clamp rushed forward and grabbed the straight-haired girl, but Xia Wei was already superhuman, with immense strength, and dragged the two of them towards the window.

Dim light shone through the window, and the group could see Xia Wei's face clearly.

His face was swollen and bluish-black, his pupils had disappeared, leaving only the whites of his eyes, and blood was still flowing from his seven orifices.

The straight-haired girl trembled: "At that time, Brother Tao rushed up and shouted, 'Xiaxia, if you want to kill me, then kill me!' Then Xiaxia let me go, and that's when the masters arrived."

Yuan Hui interjected, "This humble monk noticed a problem with the restroom. I found that the door was locked, so I opened it with a Buddhist rosary."

The female ghost was walking towards the tall, thin man when Yuan Hui threw her a Buddhist bead, and she hurriedly ran away.

Cheng Jingru frowned slightly, "You two have a very good relationship with Xia Wei?"

After receiving an affirmative answer, she pressed on, "Then do you know why Xia Wei committed suicide?"

The host then provided timely information: "Song Chongwen speculated that the young woman was in a relationship, but the company did not allow office romances, and the man refused to go public, so she committed suicide."

Both the girl with straight hair and the girl with a hair clip remained silent.

However, the tall, thin boy called Brother Tao clenched his fist and suddenly said, "That's not how it is at all! It's not that I don't want to make it public, it's that Xiaxia doesn't want it to be!"

Everyone looked at him without much surprise; it turned out this was Xia Wei's secret boyfriend.

Zhao Zitao: "Xiaxia and I have been together for a year. There is a rule in the company that if an office romance occurs, one of us must leave. Xiaxia is afraid of being fired and does not want to go public."

He took a step back, as if he could no longer bear it, and leaned against the desk.

I never imagined that my beloved would come to this.

“I already told Xiaxia that we can discuss it with President Song. If one of us has to leave, I will leave. Why is she so upset?”

The girl with the shark clip suddenly said, "No, that's not how it is!"

She looked up at Zhao Zitao, her eyes suddenly reddening: "Xiaxia doesn't want to be a burden to you."

“Xiaxia has an older brother who injured himself playing with firecrackers when he was little, leaving him with disabilities in his hands and face, and he has been unable to get married ever since. Xiaxia’s parents want her to buy a house and a car for her brother. Over the years, Xiaxia has sent all her salary home, except for a little for living expenses. She says she can’t live without this job, otherwise her mother will drive her to her death.”

"Two months ago, Xiaxia's mother called again, saying that she had arranged a blind date for her brother. The woman was willing to marry him, but she wanted a dowry of 380,000 yuan. But where would Xiaxia get the money?"

“That day, after I finished working overtime and received a call from home, Xiaxia became absent-minded. By the time I realized what was happening, she had already jumped off the building.”

"Later, Xiaxia's mother came to the company and made a scene. President Song paid 380,000 yuan in compensation. Ha, just in time for her eldest son to get married," Shark Clip said coldly with a mocking tone.

"We're stopping you from meeting Xiaxia's mom because we're afraid she'll find out you're Xiaxia's boyfriend and try to extort money from you," the straight-haired girl added, her eyes red.

Zhao Zitao never expected the truth to be like this, and he clenched his fist tightly!

The others also sighed in sympathy, and the host came over and patted him on the shoulder in a comforting manner.

Zhao Zitao suddenly raised his head: "Master, can you save Xiaxia? I feel like something is wrong with her!"

Girls with shark clips and straight hair also agreed, finding it too strange.

Xiaxia harbored no resentment towards her colleagues. Although President Song was a bit fussy, he was a good person; otherwise, he wouldn't have immediately paid 380,000 yuan in compensation after Xiaxia's mother complained.

They always felt that Xiaxia was being controlled by something and didn't mean to harm them.

Cheng Jingru said with a serious expression, "We will try to solve the mystery about Xia Wei, but you must leave now. I have a feeling that something big will happen tonight."

Host: Really? Junior sister, your intuition kicked in again?

Cheng Jingru nodded and looked at the others, "This is definitely not an S-level mission, so everyone must not let their guard down."

Luo Wenxin stepped forward and reiterated the story of someone spontaneously combusting in the stairwell. Everyone immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.

The live chat started flooded with comments.

Xiaxia is so pitiful. Her whole family should be together. I hope her parents and brother will go down to be with her immediately.

This mother is so bizarre, isn't she afraid of retribution?

Good people don't live long, but evil people live for a thousand years.

[Here it comes! Junior Sister's prophetic words are here!]

[Oh my god, this isn't even an S-rank mission anymore, I'm so nervous!]

Trust your junior sister's intuition; following it will solve the mystery and lead to your escape!

[However, I must say, Junior Sister's intuition is amazing; in the previous SS-level missions, Senior Brother Shen and Junior Sister teamed up to slay demons with incredible skill, I hope this one won't be a disappointment.]

【Then you shouldn't get your hopes up. This one clearly isn't good enough and will definitely hold your junior sister back.】
