62 Research
◎Through research◎
When they were only one step away from the hell realm, the doctor panicked, because everything outside was weird!
Between life and death, the doctor made a decision: "Let me go! No evidence is needed! I admit that I was the one who reported you to the Financial Regulatory Authority!"
Hearing this, Sang Mian stopped. She was right. It was indeed the doctor who reported it. He told the truth after a little fright. Now she was really angry. The Eternal Night Cult didn't even give her a good day.
So she pulled the doctor out of the game hall without hesitation.
The other players were stunned by this reversal, only Xia Qing looked excited: "Sister Sang is so strong! I knew Sister Sang would not suffer any loss!"
Bai Tang looked outside the door worriedly: "The Infernal Realm is very dangerous, will Mian Mian be okay?"
Xia Qing put her arm around Bai Tang's shoulders and said, "No, have you forgotten how powerful Sister Sang is? Everyone who sees Sister Sang has to give her some face."
Bai Tang thought of Sang Mian's assets: "That's right."
The doctor closed his eyes tightly. If he were given the chance to live again, he would definitely use all his strength to kill Sang Mian the first time he saw her.
But it was too late. He seemed to have anticipated the tragic situation he would encounter after leaving the house, which was nothing more than being dismembered.
A crystal tear rolled down the corner of his eye, the door was pushed open, and the thick and strange aura outside was so cold that it seemed to penetrate into his bones.
He gritted his teeth and said to Sang Mian in a broken voice: "I will never let you go in my next life!"
At this time, the players in the hall also reacted.
What the hell did they see? 080369 took the doctor to die?
Directly enter the hell world, ruthless man!
They thought they would see 080369 being besieged and eaten by a group of monsters, but after watching at the door for a long time, not a single monster came forward.
"That's weird! Why don't they eat 080369?"
"Could it be that those weirdos didn't realize she was human?"
"No way? Her Weirdness value is not very high among the weird ones. Many weird ones have Weirdness values above 60 points."
"But President Sang isn't afraid at all! It's as if he already knew the outcome."
Xia Qing rolled his eyes: "Don't you see who it is! The president of our No Coriander Eating Guild is awesome!"
One player brought the topic back to the doctor: "Isn't the point the last sentence the doctor said? He said he reported it."
"I don't understand what the doctor means. Is he really in collusion with Weird?"
"What did I hear about FINRA? Whistleblowing?"
There was a heated discussion in the game hall. Outside, Sang Mian's weirdness value was as stable as an old dog, but the doctor's weirdness value kept decreasing. Sang Mian saw many weird creatures casting longing glances at them.
The doctor's eyelashes trembled slightly. He had waited for a long time but didn't feel any pain. This shouldn't be the case. The Underworld was a strange place. Even if they were blind, they could still recognize humans.
With fear and confusion, the doctor slowly opened his eyes, and the bright neon lights made his eyes hurt.
Sang Mian let go of the doctor's wrist and crossed her arms: "I thought you were so brave, but you're nothing special." After saying that, she took out her cell phone and made a call.
Within two minutes, a black business car drove up to the door of the game hall.
The car window dropped, and the doctor's heart once again rose to his throat: "There is actually a black-haired female head sitting in the passenger seat!"
The head moved on the passenger seat, and the terrifying eyes met his gaze, then fell on Sang Mian.
The doctor thought, it’s over, no wonder the other monsters didn’t dare to take action, it turns out that the powerful guy is here.
He was sweating coldly, this was his first time interacting with weird people outside of weird games.
"Good evening, respected president." The head's mouth opened and closed, and eerie words came out of its mouth.
Who else is she calling CEO? The doctor suddenly felt his scalp tingling. Could there be something even more bizarre coming?
"You have a good attitude. I will definitely give you a higher year-end bonus." Sang Mian nodded with satisfaction. Zhao Xiaoyue is getting better and better. Today's presentation was really good!
The person in the car immediately showed a flattering expression, "Dear President, let's go back to Spark Entertainment first! The employees have missed you during your absence!"
Wait, who is this head calling "CEO"? It seems to be Sang Mian? The doctor looked at Sang Mian in disbelief.
“What are you looking at!” Sang Mian opened the back door of the car and said to the doctor viciously, “Get in the car! If you don’t, I will throw you into the pile of weird things and eat you till not even a bone is left!”
The doctor's neat white shirt was already wrinkled. What the hell! It wasn't him who was colluding with Wei Yi! It was obviously Sang Mian himself!
However, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. The doctor kept his mouth shut, fearing that Sang Mian would throw him out of the car if she was unhappy.
Sang Mian opened the panel in the car.
[Hello, player 080369. Since you are the landlord of the Ghost Apartment and are on the list of wealthy celebrities, and the Ghost Apartment is in a state of continuous loss, the Infernal World Financial Regulatory Bureau will investigate you and find out why the apartment is losing money. They will arrive at the Ghost Apartment in three days. Please receive them in time.]
She reread the panel's instructions. There were still two and a half days left before the survey, so she had to come up with a perfect solution to fool the Financial Regulatory Authority.
Spark Entertainment and the Game Hall are both located in the bustling area of the Infernal Realm. It only takes a few minutes to reach the downstairs of Spark Entertainment.
Sang Mian gave Zhao Xiaoyue a look, and Zhao Xiaoyue understood immediately.
It’s not easy to deal with a person.
So the doctor was taken away by Zhao Xiaoyue and locked up.
In the president's office of Spark Entertainment, Lin Buchi was waiting for Sang Mian.
Sang Mian sighed: "I helped you preserve the body, it's time for you to help me."
Lin Buchi raised his eyebrows: "No wonder you sent me a message to invite me to Xinghuo Entertainment, did you encounter any problems?"
Now the two of them are partners, and Sang Mian went straight to the point and told him that the Financial Regulatory Bureau was coming to conduct a survey.
Lin Buchi said seriously, "This is difficult to handle. If you can't explain the loss well, they will really take you to the police station."
Sang Mian nodded angrily: "I blame the doctor of the Eternal Night Cult! He reported me as soon as I finished the dungeon."
"His meanness is well known to everyone." Lin Buchi sat opposite Sang Mian: "Now that it has come to this, there is no point in blaming him."
Lin Buchi bent down and knocked on the table: "Otherwise you should just run away, give up the haunted apartment, and stop receiving guests."
Sang Mian had a blank expression on his face: "Do you think I didn't expect this? The system says that if you don't receive it, you will die."
A hint of smile welled up from Lin Buchi's sharp brows. He stood up and walked in front of Sang Mian, his back straight under his grey windbreaker. He lowered his head slightly and looked into Sang Mian's eyes: "Then let's solve it from the source."
"The source?" Sang Mian tilted his head: "The source is loss. Solving the problem from the source means making Ghost Apartment profitable?"
Before she finished speaking, she stood up suddenly as if all her meridians were opened, "I have an idea!" Sang Mian patted Lin Buchi's shoulder excitedly, "You are worthy of being my partner! You are so smart!"
She quickly asked Zhao Xiaoyue to contact the construction team and start work on the Ghost Apartment tonight, and make sure the renovation of the Ghost Apartment is completed within three days.
At the end of the call, Sang Mian added: "Bring that man to the construction today as well. Remember, don't let him rest for three days and three nights."
Despite being so efficient, the doctor was thrown in front of the haunted apartment and a hammer was stuffed in his hand before he could even get comfortable at Spark Entertainment.
A fierce-looking man in a blue work uniform pointed at the haunted apartment and said to him, "Don't think about sleeping if you don't work!"
The doctor was shivering in the cold wind while holding a hammer. He was an intellectual, but he was thrown into the construction site to do rough labor! And there were weird things around him that could kill him.
How can we live like this?
The doctor worked hard in the haunted apartment for three days. During this time, he was whipped whenever he took a break. There were whip marks under his white shirt. He only dared to wipe away his tears secretly late at night when no one was paying attention.
He had thought of countless possible consequences of revenge, but he had never expected to be forced to do hard labor. His fair, slender fingers had grown thick calluses during these three days.
After suffering from mental and physical torture, he saw Sang Mian in the early morning of the third day. Sang Mian greeted him refreshed and asked him how he was doing.
The doctor was stunned for several seconds, and the words "good!" were stuck in his throat. Finally, he forced a far-fetched smile and said, "Very, very good."
How dare he say no! Sang Mian can make him do hard labor with just one word, and if he says another word, will he die?
Sang Mian smiled: "I still like your previous rebellious look, recover a little."
"......" The doctor put away the smile that was uglier than a ghost's cry, and his expression became superior again: "Do you think this is okay?"
"Very good, he looks like he deserves a beating." Sang Mian affirmed it.
The man in blue work clothes who was very good at reading people's expressions whipped the doctor again when he heard this. Hehehe, this whip must have touched the landlady's heart. She might even give him a raise!
Doctor: “…” I really want to die right here!
Sang Mian nodded with satisfaction as he watched the Haunted Apartment that had been rushed to completion. Zhao Xiaoyue next to him was held in the arms of the man in a suit. The three of them standing together had an inexplicable sense of harmony.
Of course, this sense of harmony only felt weird. The doctor still felt terrified when he saw it, fearing that the head would open its mouth and eat him.
During these three days, the Eternal Night Cult had been in chaos. The president sat in the conference room with a gloomy expression, his hands crossed, "The doctor hasn't come back yet?"
Che Yingnan: “No.”
The president threw the notebook next to him to the ground, with an expression on his face as if he wanted to eat her alive.
Che Yingnan shuddered. She had been cursing 080369 over and over in her heart for three days and three nights. That day, 080369 took the doctor away and has not returned since then. Everyone was guessing what had happened to the doctor, but the doctor's code on the LED screen did not turn gray, which meant that the doctor was still alive.
"The doctor will definitely return safely." Che Yingnan said guiltily.
"I wish he would die outside!" The president gnashed his teeth. He hated 080369 no matter who it was. In the past, 080369 liked to go against the Eternal Night Cult. Now 080369 was even more annoying. He actually poached his people! He poached seven people in one copy!
Che Yingnan was shocked. Why did the president react like this? Didn't he have a good relationship with the doctor? Could it be that... the doctor and 080369 were really having an affair? Three days ago, it was just a trick by 080379. In fact, he took the doctor out to have a private time?
Combined with the rumors in the player lobby, she felt more and more that it was possible that when 080369 first came to the player lobby, the doctor wanted to kill her, but the second time he went to recruit 080369 himself...
The more Che Yingnan thought about it, the more frightened she became. She seemed to have known some terrible secret.

Sang Mian stood at the door of the apartment and took out her cell phone to check the time. It was now nine o'clock in the morning in the Infernal Realm. The system reminded her that the Financial Regulatory Bureau's strange arrival was about to begin.
She rubbed her hands together, quite nervous, wondering whether the weird person who came to investigate was kind or not.
She smiled with her standard eight big teeth, turned her head and asked Zhao Xiaoyue: "Do you think my smile is very friendly and approachable?"
When Zhao Xiaoyue saw the president's sinister teeth, she thought of the night she lost her body. That was a pain she didn't want to recall, so she said with a fake smile, "President, don't be ridiculous. Is approachable a word to describe you? You should be described as hideous."
"..." Sang Mian's expression shattered. She simply stopped pretending and revealed her true face to Zhao Xiaoyue: "You are getting bolder and bolder. You even dare to make up stories about me! I will deduct your year-end bonus!"
Why is it a year-end bonus? Because Zhao Xiaoyue has to work for her for free for 30 years, and during this time she will only give Xiaoyue a year-end bonus.
Zhao Xiaoyue was about to retort when she saw a white car driving towards the haunted apartment from the corner of her eye.
"President, stop making trouble. Something strange is coming."
