Chapter 9 I don’t want to work overtime (4)
Countless black tentacles hung from the ceiling and wandered sticky, passing through the gaps in the keyboard, scrambling the newly typed text on the screen, flowing into her water glass and becoming A glass full of squirming black liquid.
If someone looks carefully at Liu Sheng's eyes at this time, they will see that her irises have been completely filled with intense black, and the whites of her eyes are also covered with thin black tentacles.
But Liu Sheng seemed unaware and picked up the water glass and took a sip. The black liquid squirmed and slid down her throat.
At noon, Liu Sheng just wanted to go downstairs and buy a sandwich for lunch.
The lunch break is from 12 to 2 o'clock. It is impossible to come up with a completely inexperienced plan for the boss at 2 o'clock without sacrificing rest time.
At two o'clock, she showed the somewhat hot plan she had just printed out to her bleary-eyed boss who got up from his lunch break bed.
He flipped through a few pages and put them aside.
Liu Sheng was about to go back to do other things, but he stopped him: "You groom yourself this afternoon, put on light makeup, and have dinner with your clients tonight."
"I still have some There are several plans to make, and I’m afraid I don’t have time.”
But the boss did not give Liu Sheng room to refuse: "So why do you always fail to do your job well? You just can't distinguish the important from the important! What is our department supposed to do? It is to provide solutions based on customer needs. You don't have more contact with customers and follow them. How do you build a good relationship with your customers? Where do you think so many projects come from? "
"Anyway, this is what the project team leader means. Your academic qualifications and image are pretty good in our team. Now we want you to represent the professional image of our company."
Liu Sheng was silent, knowing that he could not refuse. In his memory, "Yi Yu" had attended several such dinners, and he felt nauseated just thinking about it.
"Okay, let's not talk anymore. You go and do your work. Remember to dress up. A good little girl is so dressed up every day that she doesn't even know how to find a boyfriend." The boss glanced at Liu Sheng's whole body and left. He curled his lips and waved her back.
Liu Sheng secretly clenched her fists, her drooping forehead covering her increasingly dark eyes.
...
The evening meal came as promised, in a Western restaurant with a nice environment.
Liu Sheng put on light makeup and changed into a formal skirt as requested by her boss.
She was not the only one accompanying the project team leader and her boss, but also several young female colleagues, all of whom put on heavy foundation and rich blush to hide their fatigue.
“Your company is really amazing, there are so many beauties!” The boss at the customer’s side glanced at them and said with a smile.
"Hahaha, they are not only beautiful, but they are also our professionals!" the project team leader responded with a smile.
“This is a graduate student from Qingdao University, majoring in computer science!” He pointed at Liu Sheng and introduced, then pointed to the next person, “This little beauty came back from studying in the Federal Third Reich. Next to me is a talented girl. Not only is she good at school, she can also dance and calligraphy..."
"They are both talented and beautiful girls! It seems that we will have more to talk about today and have a few drinks together! "The customers all clapped their hands and laughed.
Really, so annoying.
Liu Sheng thought silently.
Suddenly, the lights in the box dimmed a lot. The leader called the waiters and asked for a long time, but there was nothing they could do. They had no choice but to laugh and say that the atmosphere would be better if the lights were dimmed.
Only Liu Sheng could see that many tiny black tentacles were twisting and crawling on the wall, and even got into the lampshade to wrap around the light.
Soon, the dinner table was filled with the smell of wine, and there was endless conversation and laughter.
Liu Sheng quietly clicked on her phone and saw a message from her mother: [I left soup for you tonight, in the rice cooker. 】
Next sentence: [Learn more from your leaders how to socialize, and remember to smile more. You've been looking so bad lately, and no one will deal with someone who doesn't like to smile. 】
She turned off the screen, raised her head and smiled at the people on the table.
A female colleague was being hugged by the shoulders with an embarrassed look on her face, while another female colleague had been given several drinks and was covering her mouth to avoid spitting out.
The man next to her saw the look on her face after she smiled, and his eyes lit up: "Would you like to teach you how to use a knife and fork? I have been in the Federal Western Empire for more than 20 years."
As he spoke, his hand touched the back of Liu Sheng's hand.
Liu Sheng smiled slightly, clenched the knife and fork in his hand, and said, "How do you know I can't do it?"
... Under the moonlight, Liu Sheng sat on the windowsill, his legs hanging outside and swinging gently.
The box behind him was pitch black and completely occupied by black tentacles that were squirming and slimy, as thick as the mouth of a bowl. Several broken and twisted bodies could be seen in the gaps between the tentacles. Physically, the fatal injuries were basically stab wounds on the neck.
Several female colleagues were huddled in the corner shivering, their bodies covered in hot red.
Liu Sheng played with the table knife in his hand and said without looking back: "Let's go."
When they heard this, they rolled and crawled out of the box.
Liu Sheng's inner restlessness seemed to be slowly calming down. She raised her face and felt the rare summer night breeze.
A tentacle snaked its way and gently touched her earlobe.
【Do you know, what is 'I'? 】
Liu Sheng thought for a while and shook his head.
Some tentacles stretched out to her phone, clicked on the screen, swiped a few times, and a long text came into Liu Sheng's eyes.
While Liu Sheng was reading this article, the blackness in her eyes became more and more intense. The black tentacles inside and outside her body began to merge into her body, passing through her blood vessels. Her bluish blood vessels were filled with black tentacles until they bulged. It was dark, and the skin on the surface of the blood vessels was a little transparent, as if it was about to burst.
Finally these tentacles went straight to her brain.
The black tentacles were like fine nets, woven deep into her mind, trying to control her every thought, and her consciousness began to blur.
In this abyss of despair, a weak voice emerged from the bottom of her heart: This shouldn't be like this, this is not her.
But this voice was too weak, and was quickly drowned out by the intense blackness, leaving only eternal despair.
......
When Liu Sheng woke up, she had returned to the small room in the warehouse.
The text displayed on the analyzer this time is:
[Item name: Sansiwuqilu]
[Analysis completion: 36.74%]
[Effect description: unknown]

[Analysis evaluation: Do you think this is the whole truth? Is it done?】
【Points obtained: 1 (currently 1)】
[Analysis reward: a table knife sticker]
[Number of high-dimensional analysis: -1 (1 remaining time)]
Why!
Liu Sheng held the hand-painted knife sticker as a reward, which was no bigger than a thumb, and roared in her heart.
She also put the small sticker into the analyzer and tried to see if there was anything special.
This small sticker did not trigger high-dimensional analysis:
[Item name: Knife sticker]
[Analysis completion: 100%]
[Influence level: None]
[Effect description: Mango Western Restaurant offers an exclusive set meal souvenir for 1,998 yuan per person. It can be affixed to school bags, mobile phone cases, or toilets. As long as it is a place you like, it can become beautiful]
[Analysis and evaluation: It’s really just an ordinary sticker]
