Chapter 8 is shrouded in darkness

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

There is a ghost! A malevolent spirit that delights in killing

Xiatian Qi reiterated his point once again

My probationary salary is 20,000, and I have also been provided with an Audi. What about you?

Upon hearing that Wang Yazhi was going to be with Xia Tianqi, the effeminate man let out a cold snort of displeasure and then walked away with Zhao Shuang.

Having made up his mind, Xia Tianqi raised his head and said to the three of them with great seriousness

Upon hearing that Xia Tianqi had questions to ask them, the three newcomers all displayed great cooperation, stopping in place without continuing to move.

Xiatianqi almost shouted this sentence; in fact, the more he spoke, the more afraid he felt inside

How could Xia Tianqi not know that the term "sissy" was said intentionally, so he resolutely denied it:

Although Zhao Shuang was somewhat afraid and hugged her shoulders, she did not show any sign of disbelief in her words

However, apart from these unexpected events, he did not obtain any valuable information at all

"There’s nothing wrong with coming here for a trial shift, it’s just staying here for a night shift!" The effeminate man interrupted Xia Tianqi again, speaking with a tone of indifference.

Xiatianqi is too lazy to get angry with the effeminate ones, after all, the priority now is to preserve one's life, as no one knows when that evil spirit will emerge to kill.

I am too

In other words, these three newcomers, like myself, are completely unaware of the company's situation.

Could you please be more specific

In the spirit of helping the three newcomers gain a clearer understanding of their situation, enabling them to better assist one another, Xia Tianqi has been completely transparent with the three newcomers

Wang Yazhi glanced at the effeminate man, then turned back to look at the sullen Xia Tianqi, hesitating for a moment before replying

Ahーー ! ''

Xiatianqi reiterated it once again without any sign of annoyance

What does it mean? The three people listened and were somewhat puzzled

What I mean to say is, how much do you know about the company you are applying to? Do you know what the company does and why it would hire you?

During your interview, and also on the way here afterwards, did that middle-aged man say anything to you? For example, about how long it would take to become a permanent employee, or why it was necessary to come here for a trial position, or the basic situation of this company, etc.

I feel the same way

If I could summon the evil spirit, we would surely be doomed

After passing by two windows in succession, Feng Wei discovered that the curtains in the building were all tightly drawn. It was precisely for this reason that the entire floor was shrouded in darkness, making it impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face

At this moment, the effeminate man and Zhao Shuang echoed a few words, especially the one named Feng Wei, who, after speaking, anxiously shone a flashlight behind him.

This company is quite mysterious; once we sign a work contract with it, we will be assigned to haunted places. For instance, this bookstore that is only haunted at night! If we do not go, or choose to flee, we will face the relentless entanglement and revenge of malevolent spirits, until we are killed...

Seeing that the newcomers were very cooperative, Xia Tianqi did not waste any time and directly asked the question:

With his head lowered, after a moment of quiet contemplation, Xia Tianqi clenched his teeth and resolved to reveal the truth he had come to understand

This ... ... is indeed unclear

"Is it really necessary to speak so terrifyingly? It scares me to the point that I don't even dare to listen," Wang Yazhi said with some trepidation after hearing this

We did not mean that. Wang Yazhi appeared to hope that they would not have an unpleasant quarrel

I think we should split up to find the switch that controls the lights, it is really too dark here

Although Wang Yazhi appears delicate and weak, and her appearance is quite ordinary, having someone by her side can at least alleviate some of the psychological pressure

The company we have signed a contract with is, in fact, exceedingly evil and insidiously deceitful; in short, it is a fraudulent company of the lowest caliber. They use high salaries and generous benefits as bait to lure us in. Once we complete the contract with them, we are compelled to comply with their arrangements and assignments. For instance, we are currently specifically assigned by the company to this trial position

However, having reached this point, he must continue to speak up, no matter how afraid he may be

The reason for readily signing the labor contract and agreeing to come here for duty is, to put it bluntly, the enticing salary and benefits. Therefore, even if it seems somewhat unreliable, I am still willing to take a bit of a risk to give it a try

Next, Xia Tianqi conducted a thorough inquiry with the three newcomers, during which he also learned their names.

The responses of the three individuals were remarkably consistent once again, indicating that everyone's expectations for the trial experience are the same

I just feel that you are not lying, of course, just in case.

Feng Wei instinctively glanced at the window, and then he was completely stunned.

Do you not believe it either

When Xia Tianqi learned the reasons behind the contracts signed by the three newcomers, he couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation, as he had thought the same way at that time. However, at this moment, only he understood what this seemingly attractive salary package truly meant and what would happen tonight

I just said that only by following the company's arrangements and returning here to work is it possible to survive; otherwise, fleeing or staying at home is a dead end

"Why aren't you with them?" Xia Tianqi's tense face relaxed slightly

In the next moment, a scream filled with terror shattered the original tranquility of this place

Isn't it so? How could someone as handsome as I am possibly lie? Only those two fools would not believe me

What evidence do you have to prove that what you are saying is true

What is your salary?" After finishing, Xia Tianqi added another sentence saying:

I will first give you a warning; what I am about to say may sound like nonsense, as if I am telling you ghost stories, but in fact, I am being serious. Everything I am about to say is true and is based on my personal experiences. Therefore, you must believe me, or else something may very well happen.

I feel that what he said does not sound like a lie... Wang Yazhi somewhat believed Xia Tianqi and could not help but say to Zhao Shuang, but was interrupted by a flamboyant remark:

After speaking, Wang Yazhi shyly covered her mouth and chuckled softly twice

Indeed, it startled me so much that my hair stood on end

Since Zhao Shuang took the lead, I never really trusted his effeminate demeanor, and at this moment, I added a remark by asking:

It is just a bit strange, since what you said is true, and it is so dangerous here, why do you still want to come back

I am the same as you, I am also this number

Regardless of whether you are called Brother Xia, you truly have been frightened into this state. You keep talking about ghosts, but where in this world are there any ghosts! We have all chosen to ignore you, and we have given you a way out, so you should just honestly keep quiet. Yet here you are, still clinging to this matter and not letting it go!

Can I say that you are truly skilled at storytelling? This ghost story is indeed quite frightening

Xiatianqi glanced at that effeminate person, but did not answer his question. Instead, he continued to ask them:

"Don't bother with him anymore, let's go find the switch," said the effeminate one to Wang Yazhi at that moment

Of course, when they come here from hetushucom.com, they have also communicated with their families or friends, so they are not afraid that the company will engage in any tricks

"Hmm, it's him. He looks quite fierce." The three newcomers nodded in agreement.

Zhao Shuang's rebuttal, which showed a lack of understanding of human emotions, instantly provoked a desire in Xia Tianqi to strike her. However, due to her being a woman, he restrained himself

He recounted almost all of his bizarre or terrifying experiences from the past two days. However, what he never expected was that the three newcomers did not believe him at all

We cannot be separated! Otherwise, if one of us ends up alone and encounters that ghost, it is hard to say that we won't be killed

However, along with it, there is also ... ...

Xiatianqi shot a cold glare at the effeminate one, then emphasized his tone a bit more and said

After confirming this, Xia Tianqi pondered for a moment and then continued to ask

Xia Tianqi was actually quite surprised by Wang Yazhi's decision to stay, after all, the three of them had come together, not to mention that there was also a woman over there. However, it is undeniable that he felt some solace in his heart, more or less.

Once again standing before a floor-to-ceiling window, Feng Wei did not ignore it this time; instead, he pulled the curtains open halfway, allowing a flood of bright moonlight to pour in through the window.

In the summer, Qi felt that the effeminate person was simply brainless, and he directly ignored him, asking Wang Yazhi and Zhao Shuang:

Xiatian Qi has completely laid his cards on the table with the three newcomers, as they do not trust him at all; no matter how much he says, it is all in vain

The man who speaks in a feminine manner is named Feng Wei. The other two women, whose voices sound soft and weak, are named Wang Yazhi and the other, who is cold, is named Zhao Shuang

You may choose to believe it or not, but I am truly at peace with my conscience. No wonder no one is willing to be the good person; being a good person is simply not meant for humans!

Feng Wei muttered in dissatisfaction as he walked back and forth along the window, stopping intermittently, and every few steps he would turn back to glance behind him

"I do not disbelieve..." Wang Yazhi, seeing that Xia Tianqi was somewhat angry, gently said

In fact, since he just parted ways with Xia Tianqi and the others, he has constantly felt as if he is being followed, yet whenever he turns around to look, he finds nothing. That said, he is still somewhat bothered by what Xia Tianqi said earlier; he simply does not want to believe it.

Is the person interviewing you the middle-aged man who brought you here not long ago

You may go ahead; we will look for it here

Let us go and find the switch as well

This building is truly strange; I can't even find a single switch

What is it? Zhao Shuang asked at that moment

I will say it again, I am very serious!" After saying this, Xia Tianqi emphasized his tone even more and said:

This is not done because he is particularly kind or upright, but simply because he feels that having four people share this burden is certainly better than him shouldering it alone. Although he is unsure whether these three newcomers will believe such an incredible thing, after all, they have not yet experienced it.

The three newcomers indeed understood what Xia Tianqi meant this time, but they were completely unaware of the questions he asked

Do you know about this company? Or rather, how much do you know about the company you are working for?

"Um... Mr. Xia, do you know anything about this company?" asked the newcomer, who spoke in a somewhat effeminate manner.

If there is nothing here, then staying here on duty at night is of no consequence, but the question is, do you know what is here

Seeing three people with the appearance of listening to ghost stories, Xia Tianqi couldn't help but curl his lips and emphasized
