"This is the StarNet solo live streaming department."
The man, wearing silver-rimmed glasses, glanced at the orcs, adjusted his glasses slightly, and wore a meaningful smile.
Being the department head who is the last to select people means that you will see how these people are humble and subservient, desperate, and even hostile towards you in order to beg for your help.
The man chose the first orc, the second orc, the third orc, the fourth orc...
There's only one orc spot left!
The atmosphere around them began to tense. But for the last orc spot, the man slowly swept his gaze over the orcs who were waving and shouting wildly. He hesitated to speak or choose the last orc, instead wanting to see their reaction with interest.
Jiang Zheyu's arms were almost sore from waving them. She had squeezed to the front row. Her throat was extremely dry. She gripped the iron bars of the cell, swallowed hard, and her heart was pounding. Her forehead was covered in sweat, which clung to her body, making her feel sticky.
There is only one spot left.
The last living spot.
"My lord, choose me! Choose me!" A beastman next to Jiang Zheyu suddenly knelt down, grabbed the cell and kowtowed hard, blood streaming from his forehead. "I don't want to die, my lord, choose me!"
Jiang Zheyu, standing to the side, was startled. Looking down at the large patch of blood, her heart began to beat faster. Although most of the people in the cell had been chosen and the cell was now somewhat empty with better air circulation, she still felt a little breathless.
The large pool of blood from the orc next to her did indeed catch the man's attention.
The man slowly walked over, and the kneeling orc's eyes revealed a look of hope. His face, smeared with blood, looked up at the man as if he were his last straw.
Slowly, the man raised his hand, pointing at the orc. He paused slightly, and the kneeling orc struggled to get up, thinking that the man was going to choose him. His eyes showed joy.
But before the orc could get up, the man's finger, which had paused slightly, began to move rapidly again, suddenly pointing at Jiang Zheyu: "Come out, I want you."
The orc next to him also suddenly looked at Jiang Zheyu.
Jiang Zheyu had already given up hope and planned to try to escape even if it meant certain death, when he was sent to sell his house and have his organs harvested.
But then, unexpectedly, the man chose her.
It's probably not that they wanted to choose her, but rather that she happened to be standing next to the orc who had bruised himself and was bleeding profusely.
The man did it on purpose.
The orc next to Jiang Zheyu immediately went berserk upon hearing this, pointing at Jiang Zheyu and shouting, "He's a newbie! He's untrained! He's just a random passerby who was accidentally caught after the starship crashed tonight!"
"Oh?" The man raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised, and looked at Jiang Zheyu.
Jiang Zheyu knew that the beastmen in this cell must have heard her conversation with the person next to her last night.
Therefore, in the end, it all comes down to one's own interests.
She was betrayed by an orc.
However, it's understandable; they're just strangers, and there's no need for them to take responsibility for each other's lives.
However, there's no need to hide this newcomer's identity anymore, because if they aren't selected, whether they're newcomers or veterans, they'll all be sent to the housing agency.
After the orc next to him revealed Jiang Zheyu's secret, he desperately grabbed the man's trouser leg and kowtowed repeatedly: "Sir, this newcomer next to me has no experience. I have worked in the pornography department, the group live streaming department, and the pet abuse department. I have a lot of experience. As long as you choose me, I will definitely be able to quickly start live streaming and make money!"
The man simply chuckled and kicked the orc away.
"You've been in so many departments, yet you still haven't achieved anything, and now you've been reassigned back here. What use are you?" The man's voice was cold and piercing.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Zheyu and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why aren't you coming out yet? Do you also want to go in and sell houses?"
Jiang Zheyu quickly shook her head; she didn't want to go into the house-selling business, and she didn't want to die.
Her legs, heavy as lead, slowly began to move, but before she reached the doorway, the orc behind her suddenly lunged at Jiang Zheyu.
Jiang Zheyu was caught completely off guard and was tackled to the ground, the orc's hands gripping her neck tightly.
She suddenly found it difficult to breathe and hurriedly used her mental power to attack the orc whose mental power was A.
The orc who was choking her suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head and fainted, falling to the side.
"Cough cough cough..." Jiang Zheyu got up, coughing loudly as she covered her neck where she had been choked. There were now bright red handprints on her neck, showing how hard the orc had choked her, as if he wanted to strangle her to death.
She turned around and saw the man outside looking regretful.
It's hard to tell whether it's a pity the orc didn't strangle her, or a pity the orc actually fainted.
Anyway, they had a malicious look on their faces.
Jiang Zheyu's heart sank. Her eyes revealed disgust, and when the man outside looked over, she quickly lowered her head to hide her emotions.
She walked out of the cell and stood next to the four orcs who had been chosen behind the man.
"Alright, come with me." The man turned around and glanced at them before walking outside first.
Jiang Zheyu and the other four orcs followed closely behind the man.
As she left the cell, she heard sounds of pain and desperate cries behind her...
All the cries of pain and despair vanished the moment the prison doors closed, but the sounds seemed to linger in the ears, refusing to disappear.
Jiang Zheyu felt somewhat numb. She really couldn't save anyone now, and she was also in a precarious situation herself.
StarNet's solo live streaming department.
This department sounds much more normal than the previous sex and animal abuse departments.
But this is Siyu's underground business.
Jiang Zheyu remembered the personal terminal that Si Yu had given her, and the StarNet on the dark web that she had accidentally seen, where all the live streams and videos were violent, bloody and outrageous.
She felt that the StarNet solo live streaming department wasn't a good department either.
Jiang Zheyu followed behind the man with a feeling of unease, as did the other four beastmen. Although they had never worked in the StarNet solo live streaming department, they had worked in other departments.
How much better can this department be than the others?
The man led them around in circles for a while, and Jiang Zheyu was starting to lose her sense of direction, feeling that all the buildings around them looked pretty much the same.
