123 The Company You Can't Leave (I)
◎I suspect my company is plotting to murder me!◎
Xu Meng and Zhu Ning looked at each other, and Xu Meng immediately opened Cheng Mofei's employee bracelet and tried to enter the password.
[Wrong password]
She tried Cheng Mofei's birthday, the time when their Cheetah Team was founded, the time when Cheng Mofei joined the Cheetah Team, and even shamelessly entered her own birthday.
[Wrong password]
These words kept appearing on the screen. Xu Mengzhen didn't know the password, so she gave Zhu Ning a helpless expression.
Zhu Ning: "I think the password he set shouldn't be easy to guess, but there must be a pattern."
It's not something as simple as a birthday or anniversary, otherwise it would be easy for the enemy to guess it.
The worst result was a string of meaningless numbers that they couldn't figure out no matter how hard they tried.
Another possibility is that Cheng Mofei's bracelet password follows a certain pattern, and people who really know him can guess it.
Zhu Ning has had the bracelet for a long time and has been stuck on the password stage, so his mentality is still okay.
Zhu Ning: "Why don't you go back and think about it carefully?"
After all, it happened nine years ago, and she had no idea what was going on. Xu Meng needed an environment to think carefully. She knew Cheng Mofei very well, but it would take some time.
Xu Meng: "I'll show it to you when I open it."
The problem between them was solved, and this time they really reached a cooperation. For a while, the atmosphere between the two was a bit awkward.
Xu Meng put away her two swords and her golden eyes. She now looked like the docile captain again. Zhu Ning felt that Xu Meng was really suitable to be an undercover agent.
Her disguise was impeccable.
Xu Meng: "If there's anything I can help with, please let me know."
Xu Meng was the first to open the door. He was an old employee and was older, so he had more resources than Zhu Ning.
Zhu Ning thought about it and actually asked bluntly, "Do you know where to find the human-machine joint device?"
If Xie Jiazu is a member of the Cheetah team, as a senior executive of the company, he might have a channel to get it.
Zhu Ning felt that he needed to talk to Prometheus.
Xu Meng did not answer this question rashly, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Xu Meng still asked: "Why do you think the cleaning center restricts Prometheus?"
Zhu Ning thought for a moment: "Because they're afraid that he might one day rule over humanity?"
Isn't that what science fiction movies always do? When AI awakens, it wants to destroy humanity.
Xu Meng nodded. "Us veteran employees all think Prometheus isn't artificial intelligence, but a pollutant."
Zhu Ning frowned. She had guessed this before.
Artificial intelligence does not have hyphae that can penetrate into people's brains, nor does it have the ability to control living people.
Ever since Zhu Ning knew that he was a combination of machinery and pollutants, he wondered if Prometheus was similar?
"We did have real artificial intelligence at the beginning. We named it Prometheus, which means it brought fire to mankind. After the radiation, organisms underwent large-scale mutations and pollution. Initially, humans had little experience in combating pollutants, and real artificial intelligence had long been infected." Xu Meng said.
This is also a very easy-to-understand logic. Ordinary robots will be infected by contaminated spores, and ordinary channels will have their signals cut off after entering the contaminated area.
Prometheus can maintain human signals in polluted areas, and the only thing fighting against pollutants is pollutants, proving that it is not a serious AI.
Xu Meng: "Currently, Prometheus is definitely not a purely intelligent entity, but it constantly mimics the behavioral logic of artificial intelligence, just as contaminated areas must adhere to their own internal logic. We rely on it to protect communications, but we're also wary of its capabilities. There's a saying in the Clean Center that if Area 103 is fully infected, human-machine hybrid devices will be issued to every employee. Under Prometheus's control, all of us are equal warriors."
"This is the real consumable. Your body has been taken over by artificial intelligence, and it will make the most reasonable arrangements to preserve the overall situation and minimize losses."
Xu Meng sincerely advised: "I will help you find the device. I don't know what your relationship with him is like, but I'm giving you a piece of advice. No matter how kind he pretends to be, don't trust him easily. Don't make a deal with the devil."
"Besides, contacting Prometheus privately is extremely dangerous. Without the official supervision of the cleaning center, it's hard to imagine what he might do."
Zhu Ning felt very uncomfortable when she first connected to Prometheus. She actually didn't understand why Song Zhizhang was willing to connect.
Zhu Ning certainly doesn't want to be led by the nose, but at the moment, it seems that this is the only way to go.
She was placed on a specific track and could not deviate from it at all. No one knew the consequences of deviation.
Zhu Ning had a guess that Prometheus did all this as if to activate her.
What happens after activation? What do you need her for?
Xu Meng really cared about Zhu Ning, so she gave her some advice from a senior. If it were someone else, she wouldn't say so much.
After working with Xu Meng, Zhu Ning learned a lot of inside information that only veteran employees knew. "I understand. Thank you, Captain."
Zhu Ningren is smart, Xu Meng has nothing much to say.
Xu Meng went back to try to crack the bracelet password and would tell Zhu Ning the content as soon as possible.
Before leaving, Xu Meng told Zhu Ning that no matter what mission she accepted, she should remember to send her a message before entering the contaminated area to let her know Zhu Ning's whereabouts.
Zhu Ning agreed. Finally, he didn't have to send a scheduled message every time he entered a contaminated area. Instead, someone could actually know his whereabouts.
Zhu Ning and Xu Meng separated.
…
The luxury car was parked right in front of the hot pot restaurant.
A cleaning backpack and a brand new set of protective clothing are placed at the back of the car, ready to enter the contaminated area at any time.
Now that the weather is cold, the moment Zhu Ning saw the luxury car, she thought that she must buy a four-wheeled one one day.
As he approached the luxury car, the in-car system uttered a voice: "Hello, Zhu Ning."
The voice of the car system was very different from Prometheus, as if reminding her that a truly harmless artificial intelligence should be like a luxury car.
Zhu Ning leaned against the car and said, "Hello, luxury car."
She felt less depressed when she said these two words. At least she was so poor that she only had money left, and she also had a luxury car of her own.
Zhu Ning sat for a while, then opened the Cleaning Center's Tomb Post Forum, ready to make another deal with the devil.
Not only was she making a deal with the devil, she was also repeatedly testing the boundaries on the edge of the deal, getting the props she wanted while trying not to be manipulated by him.
This is a very dangerous move and can easily get you into trouble.
The doomsday clock has rung, and so has the countdown to Zhu Ning's life.
The cost of her getting to this point and escaping Prometheus's control was so high that she couldn't imagine it.
And she was really hungry.
What clues does Prometheus want to give her this time?
At twelve o'clock exactly, a gray post popped up on the page.
What should I do? I suspect my company is plotting against me!
Every time Zhu Ning opens the tomb forum, he feels like, "Let me see what everyone is going crazy about."
I actually felt a sense of resonance when I saw this post. Coincidentally, I also felt that Prometheus was plotting to murder me.
This time the page is a work exchange group, and the name of the group is "I Want to Quit Again Today".
Generally, everyone shares weird things about work, someone wants to quit, and most people advise them not to quit without a plan.
There are also some latest industry news, and the top floor of the group is everyone's evaluation of the company in each region.
Employees gave scores to each company and listed the companies that need to be avoided.
Many graduates will lurk in and read the comments and make careful plans before looking for a job. To put it bluntly, it is a gathering place for office slaves. There are no bosses here, and it is a pure land for office slaves to complain.
Main Building: "My company seems to be plotting against me. I'm stuck in the same day. How do I get out?"
When Zhu Ning saw this kind of post before, netizens were mostly mocking and questioning it, asking sarcastically whether it was a paranoia. But this time, everyone was surprisingly supportive of the post.
"I also feel like I'm stuck in the same day, doing the same old work every day. Please, some kind soul please save me!"
"I've suspected my company of murdering me for three years! I can't stand it!"
"I really want to quit my job, but I'm so poor."
"Hug upstairs, same."
Zhu Ning: “…”
It seemed like everyone was tortured by work. This was simply the most united and friendly forum Zhu Ning had ever visited. There was no attack or abuse, just people banding together for warmth.
The original poster said: "I'm really stuck on the same day. I'm not exaggerating. I have proof. Every day when I come to work, I find that my workstation is exactly the same."
It is not known whether the poster is a man or a woman. He then posted a picture of an ordinary and tidy workstation with no personal belongings except a computer and necessary office supplies.
Someone responded below, “Isn’t this a normal workstation?”
"Wow, your company's workstations are so clean. Is the administration so strict?"
The original poster said: "No, look carefully, I didn't feel anything was wrong the whole time. One day after get off work, I accidentally dropped a sticky note on the ground. I was in a hurry to leave that day, so I didn't pick it up. But when I went to work the next day, the sticky note was back in its original place."
The following reply: "Did someone pick it up for you?"
Original poster: "No, I thought so the first time, but then I started to want to take pictures to record it. I didn't pay attention before. From that day on, I often messed up my workstation, but the next day it would be the same."
"These are the photos I took for a week straight. I've posted them all below. They're exactly the same."
Zhu Ning opened these photos one by one. If you didn't know better, you would think he copied and pasted them. From beginning to end, not even a pen was moved at all on this workstation.
But the workstation is next to the window, and the weather and light outside the window will change accordingly, but the workstation does not.
It seems like this workstation will automatically reset to zero, and no matter what was done the night before, it will be restored to its original state the next day.
The following reply: "That's a bit weird. Are other colleagues like this too? Does your company's cleaning staff help clear the tables?"
"I don't think that's right. Even if I help clean up, it's hard to keep it within a centimeter of the original."
The original poster said: "I've only been at this company for ten days. When I asked the old employees, they all said I was overthinking it, but I have evidence. When I first started working, an employee in our park jumped off the building. When I got off work, I heard a bang, and when I got downstairs, they had already collected the body."
"But I also encountered this person committing suicide the next day after get off work, and the day after, and the day after, and the day after. This has been ten days in a row. It's impossible for someone to commit suicide every day in our park, right?"
The following reply: "Original Poster, how much money does your company pay you? You saw an employee commit suicide on the first day, and you were still able to go to work the next day? You have such a strong mental state. If it were me, I would have collapsed on the first day."
"Yeah, the OP is a bit strange. If you really can't stand it, why don't you resign?"
The poster said: "This company pays me about 150,000 yuan a month, plus a year-end bonus. I'm actually reluctant to leave. I have a mortgage to pay, and I've been searching for a month to find this job. It would be a shame to leave without a year-end bonus."
The following reply: "! What kind of company! I want to go too, are you still hiring? I'm not afraid of ghosts, let me come!"
"Me too, 100,000 a month is enough for me."
"Are you crazy? It's obvious that what happened to the original poster is a bit supernatural. Are you rushing to die? I'll make 80,000 a month and work for you until I die. Sell this job to me and I'll do it for you. You don't have to go to work."
The original poster said: "I've actually thought about quitting. I figured, since I'd only been working there for less than a month, there's still time to leave. I could immediately look for a job and hide this experience on my resume without any record. But my company won't let me quit. They say I have to work for a full year, otherwise it's against the rules. I'd have to pay 5 million in compensation before I could leave, and I don't have that kind of money."
The following reply: "What a weird company, you signed the agreement? There's nothing we can do about it, just keep doing your job."
"No wonder the salary is so high and the penalty is so expensive. Did you sell it to the company?"
"Don't quit your job, the environment is bad right now, jobs are hard to find, and you'll have to squeeze the company out of it. Not taking your year-end bonus is a real loss. Be patient and try to work until the end of the year."
Netizens basically couldn't provide a specific solution, so they thought this job was very strange and wanted the poster to reveal the company name to avoid any problems, but he didn't reveal any information.
Later, the author did not update for a long time, and many people thought he was fine, but this post was very popular in the group and became a Buddhist post. Other office workers used it as a wishing well.
The replies below are all the same: praying to find a high-paying job.
About a year later, the owner of this post suddenly sent another message. Instead of sending text, he uploaded a voice message.
The voice bar lies alone in the middle of the post, very eye-catching.
Someone replied below: "Is the Koi OP back?"
Someone listened to the voice in advance and said, "I just finished listening to it. It's so strange. What is this?"
"High energy ahead, don't click it! Don't blame me for not warning you."
This should be the key to the supernatural.
Zhu Ning clicked on the voice call. The voice was very low, so Zhu Ning had to put his ear close to the speaker to listen.
Chila——
Chila Chila——
It sounded like the wind. No one was talking inside, and at first there was only a crackling noise.
What's that sound?
Then there was a loud bang.
Zhu Ning froze. In fact, she didn't understand what was said the first time. She rewound the audio and listened to it again, trying her best to eliminate the unnecessary noise.
Chila Chila——
Bang!
The sound was extremely shocking, as if... a corpse hit the ground, and brain matter and blood exploded.
The author has something to say:
A new dungeon has been opened. As requested by everyone, the title has been changed to the dungeon name so that it will be easier to find. Give the captain some time to think about the password~
Prometheus is a pollutant. It seems that many people have guessed it before, so I will award it with a Golden Pollution Award!
When I came back from my illness and saw the nutrient solution costing 820,000 yuan, my eyes went dark. The updates on the nutrient solution have stopped. Please stop watering the articles and leave them for the articles you like. I owe three additional articles costing 60,000, 70,000 and 80,000 yuan of nutrient solution, which I will put down in the account first and talk about when I feel better.
This time I felt like I wasted my life. It was the first time I was hospitalized for a fever. Lying in bed, my head felt hot, as if my brain was melting and slowly flowing out of my ears...
Everyone please take care of your health recently!
