Chapter 103 Underground Warehouse
Seeing Lin Jiu nod, Manager Wang nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, you can come directly to the manager's office to see me at this time."
Manager Wang said this, pointing to the time on the flyer.
Hearing this, Lin Jiu was delighted, but a conflicted look still appeared on his face.
"But......"
"It's okay, don't worry about that." Manager Wang waved his hand and suddenly said sinisterly, "You don't want the boss to know about this, do you?"
Threaten me?
very good.
There is one more reason to kill Manager Wang.
"All right."
Manager Wang withdrew his gaze with satisfaction. He changed his irritable image and said with a smile, "Don't worry, no one will know about this. Besides, you've already been there once, so what are you afraid of?"
He looks more like Manager Li now.
Lin Jiu looked at him, said nothing, and just nodded.
After leaving the manager's office, Lin Jiu went to the fresh food area.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but as soon as he arrived at the fresh food area, he could smell a faint smell of blood.
But when Lin Jiu smelled it carefully, the smell disappeared again.
Not only that, I would occasionally catch a glimpse of the fresh meat area out of the corner of my eye.
Lin Jiu guessed that the fresh meat area should be in another space and would only appear in the supermarket in the early morning.
At the moment, it seems that fresh meat sections are likely to begin to be introduced into supermarkets.
Nothing special happened during the afternoon working hours. The global notification sounded several times, but no one on Lin Jiu's side was eliminated.
There are not many players eliminated at the moment. Perhaps because of this, although the players are tired, they are not that nervous.
Only some players are still vigilant.
When it was time to get off work, Lin Jiu left on time. Manager Wang didn't say anything when he saw this, and even the boss's look no longer showed dissatisfaction.
The former was probably because Lin Jiu wanted to be an employee in the fresh meat section, and as for the latter, it was most likely because of Clarint.
Time soon came to late at night.
Lin Jiu lay on the bed and quickly fell into a light sleep.
The global notification did not sound immediately after the lights were turned off. I guess the players already knew that they could not make any noise after the lights were turned off.
But even so, some players were still eliminated in the middle of the night.
After all, your behavior is out of control once you fall asleep, unless you stay awake all the time.
But after a day's work, no player could muster the energy to persevere.
I can’t imagine what the players’ mental state will be like in two days.
The cold mechanical sound made the players feel uneasy. It could be said that each one slept more uneasily than the other, except for Lin Jiu who slept quite soundly.
It was two o'clock in the morning, and within a few minutes, Lin Jiu woke up.
A sharp squeak was heard, and the three people who shared the same dormitory with Lin Jiu made no strange movement. Lin Jiu ignored them, put on his coat and went out.
The situation outside the dormitory was the same as yesterday. This time, Lin Jiu did not move forward cautiously, but strode towards the manager's office not far from the staff dormitory.
When I arrived at the manager's office, my visual range suddenly expanded.
Lin Jiu was not surprised and raised his hand to knock on the door twice.
Soon, a voice came from inside.
"Hold on."
After a while, Manager Wang opened the door and came out.
"Follow me." As he said that, he walked past Lin Jiu and moved forward.
It was actually the direction of the warehouse at the back door of the supermarket.
Lin Jiu followed behind Manager Wang. With Manager Wang's presence, his visual range expanded several times.
On the way, they passed by the fresh food area and Lin Jiu took a glance.
The fresh produce area has also become the fresh meat area today.
And the butcher's shop seemed to have some new stock.
Lin Jiu withdrew his gaze and followed Manager Wang closely to the warehouse in the backyard of the supermarket.
He looked up and saw that the moon was indeed red.
However, the red moonlight did not emit any polluting properties, so Lin Jiu turned his head back with a slight regret.
The temperature in the warehouse was much lower than during the day. Manager Wang did not turn on the lights. He took Lin Jiu to that corner.
The debris piled there disappeared, replaced by an underground entrance. It seems that the basement, like the fresh meat area, will inevitably appear in the early morning.
Lin Jiu climbed down the stairs, and just as his feet touched the ground, the entrance above his head slammed shut.
The sudden loud noise echoed in the underground space. Lin Jiu just blinked quickly and didn't react.
"Let's go."
Manager Wang's voice rang out in the darkness, followed by the sound of footsteps.
Only then did Lin Jiu realize that the space had fallen into darkness again.
But this time, there was no visible space at all.
Fortunately, the sound of Manager Wang's footsteps gave Lin Jiu a direction.
The underground space is extremely humid. The deeper you go, the stronger the smell of blood becomes, even to the point of being pungent.
Lin Jiu followed closely behind Manager Wang. They didn't know how long they had been walking when they suddenly heard the sound of his feet stepping into a puddle and a somewhat deafening "dong dong dong" sound.
Then, a red light suddenly dispelled the darkness.
The sudden appearance of light made Lin Jiu squint his eyes slightly. When he got used to it, he was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he froze in place.
What comes into view is a huge "room" that resembles a processing plant.
There were several corpses placed on the iron bed. A tall man in a leather apron was chopping meat with a big knife, and there were rows of corpses hanging upside down on the side.
But that's not the point.
The key point is that there are several huge cages on the other side of the room, with several figures lying inside. They all seem to be still alive, but they are all unconscious.
Several strange people wearing black vests were surrounding the cage, recording something.
And what flowed on the ground was not water, but blood.
In other words, it's blood.
When the people in the underground warehouse saw Manager Wang, they stopped what they were doing and greeted him. Their eyes stayed on Lin Jiu for a very short time, with neither kindness nor malice.
Lin Jiu wasn't frightened, but he had never seen such a bloody scene. Facing Lin Jiu, lying on the iron bed was a headless corpse, with the cut surface facing him.
In fact, bloody scenes basically do not bring any excessive shock to Lin Jiu, unless they are disgusting scenes.
Manager Wang stood aside, observing Lin Jiu's reaction.
Seeing that he quickly regained his composure, Manager Wang couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this person must be suitable to join them.
However, the fresh meat area also has its own rules.
Although Manager Wang hopes that Lin Jiu will join, he cannot join unless he meets the conditions and can only become food on the chopping board.
"Ahem."
Manager Wang cleared his throat, attracting Lin Jiu's attention.
"Let me introduce you to the fresh meat section first."
Lin Jiu nodded and showed an attitude of listening attentively.
Manager Wang seemed to like this and smiled slightly as he spoke, "The fresh meat section is currently in the process of preparing to go online. We're not really short of staff at the moment, but as you know, with a new opening, there will definitely be a lot of customers, so we're in need of temporary workers like you."
Lin Jiu nodded.
Manager Wang continued, "The fresh meat area and the underground warehouse only appear at 2 a.m. As for what we sell, you should already understand."
"I think you should be curious about why we are developing in secret."
