At dinner time, Xie Ziyu arrived on time to have a free meal. They found a restaurant downstairs and had a meal, and then the two returned to the company.
She went out to play during the day. There were a lot of affairs in the company, and there was still a lot of information to collect. Lin Xiaoman could only work overtime at night. However, she felt a little scared to work overtime alone, so she had to bring Xie Ziyu along as a life-saving card.
In the huge office, Lin Xiaoman was busy with his money-making plan, while Xie Ziyu was reading files on the sofa, making phone calls from time to time, and looked very busy.
After working until around 9 o'clock, Xie Ziyun put down the documents in his hands and stood up from the sofa. "How long will it take you?"
"It's almost done. I'll sort it out and take the information back to look at it."
She is a boss who is as busy as a dog.
"Take your time, I'll go look around the building. Your building is too gloomy, there might be other puppets."
"Then what should I do?" When Lin Xiaoman heard that Xie Ziyu was leaving, his heart immediately turned cold, and he felt cold and creepy without any wind.
"You already have an amulet, what are you afraid of?"
"Are you sure the amulet will work?"
"Sure, it's 280,000. It's definitely the real thing." With that, Xie Ziyu raised his leg and walked out.
"No, it's too dangerous. I'd better follow you." Seeing Xie Ziyu was about to leave the office door, Lin Xiaoman jumped up and followed him eagerly.
Safety first, making money second.
"That's okay too."
The two of them walked out of the office, one in front of the other, and down the corridor for a while. Huh? Lin Xiaoman was surprised to find that the lights in the technical department's office were on.
"In your company, can you get overtime pay for working overtime?" Xie Ziyu muttered in surprise.
"No, but for such a hardworking employee, I can consider giving him a raise. Master, wait for me. I'll show my bossy spirit and feed him a bowl of chicken soup."
"Go ahead, I'll have a cigarette." There happened to be a window here, so Xie Ziyu walked towards the window and lit a cigarette while leaning against it.
Although the company has a rule prohibiting smoking, Lin Xiaoman ignored it and went straight to the technical department's office area.
There were more than a dozen empty workstations. Following the faint sound of keyboards, Lin Xiaoman's gaze shifted to the workstation in the corner against the wall.
Because he was facing away, Lin Xiaoman could only see the collar of a light blue shirt, a gray sweater, and a medium-short hairstyle. It was a man. At this moment, the man was typing on the keyboard intently. One could vaguely see strings of codes flashing on the computer screen.
"Cough." Lin Xiaoman put his fist to his lips and pretended to cough, declaring his presence.
The code on the screen stopped, and the hands tapping on the keyboard stopped. With the sound of a chair creaking, the man turned around and said in a surprised voice, "Boss Jiang!"
"It's so late, and you're still working overtime. You're really working hard!"
These are the lines Lin Xiaoman had in mind.
However, the man in front of him had fair skin, delicate features, and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He had an elegant temperament and was well-mannered. In terms of appearance, he was definitely above average.
When Lin Xiaoman saw the man's appearance clearly, his mind went blank as if he had been electrocuted, and the hairs on his body stood up.
"Zizi..." The lights on the ceiling flickered on and off in response to the situation.
"What a coincidence, Mr. Jiang, are you working overtime too?" The man suddenly stood up, a smile bloomed on his gentle face, his lips were particularly red, as if stained with blood.
"Ah!!" With an octave high scream, calling for help, Lin Xiaoman rushed out without thinking at all, and then, bang, hit the wall of flesh.
Xie Ziyun rushed over immediately after hearing the noise, but was caught off guard and hit by a headbutt. "Ah, you want to kill me!"
"There's a puppet!! Xiao Huai, I saw Xiao Huai!" Lin Xiaoman said hurriedly.
Woc! This world is so exciting!
"Huh? Where is it?" Rubbing his chest that was hurt from the collision, Xie Ziyu walked forward and looked inside.
"Just..." Lin Xiaoman pointed and turned around, then froze for a moment, "Huh?"
Just now, the workstation where Xiao Huai was working was completely empty, a complete vacuum area.
Lin Xiaoman remembered that it was unlucky to have someone die, so he packed up Xiao Huai's workstation, desk, chair and computer and threw them to Ren Nan.
"This, it was right here just now, I'm definitely not seeing things!" Lin Xiaoman raised his hand with a look of assurance.
"This?" Xie Ziyun walked over directly, turned around at that location, frowned and said, "I don't feel any residual Yin energy from the puppet monster."
"Impossible, it's really Xiao Huai! I saw it with both eyes. Look at my bright eyes, how could I be wrong!" Lin Xiaoman emphasized again.
"Oh, that might just be a ghost puppet." Xie Ziyu's expression relaxed and his tone became casual.
"What is a ghost puppet?"
"The Ghostly Puppets are the most numerous type of puppets. They are essentially the souls of people after death. Ghostly Puppets are basically harmless and only stay in the mortal world for a few days before quickly dissipating. Of course, the possibility of evolution cannot be ruled out."
"Xiao Huai has been dead for more than 20 days!"
"This is normal, it's just a puppet, don't make such a fuss."
Lin Xiaoman took a deep breath. Okay, as a person with a puppet-absorbing physique, she had to stay calm!
However, I was scared just now... I want to go to the bathroom.
"I need to go to the bathroom."
"Then you go."
"You come with me."
"Go away!" Xie Ziyu rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Then they went to the toilet one after another, and Lin Xiaoman stood still.
