Chapter 496: Reality is not perfect, but it is so beautiful
Gao Ming didn't know whether the helper the female clerk meant was the toilet doctor or himself. He just thought the female clerk seemed to be in a good mood.
"I have completed your interview task, can I meet the boss now?" Gao Ming talked with the toilet doctor for a long time in his dream, and he felt that the mysterious boss might know something.
"The boss is still away dealing with matters and won't be able to come back for the time being." The female clerk held her chin and looked at Gao Ming again.
A haunted house owner always goes out of town to deal with things. In an era where information is so conveniently transmitted, he can't even tell Gao Ming a complete sentence. Is that owner really just "out of town"?
Gao Ming did not continue to ask. In the case of unequal strength, the other party did not want to talk, so it would be rude to ask.
"Before the boss comes back, you should follow me first. Fill out these forms in your free time. We need to know where your mental limits are." The female clerk and Gao Ming added their contact information to each other, and then added those forms The blood-stained newspapers were stuffed back into Gao Ming's hands: "No matter where you go from now on, you'd better take these newspapers with you."
"Why?"
"It doesn't take up space anyway." The female clerk has not disclosed her own information until now, nor has she invited Gao Ming to enter the Ninth Senses Experience Hall: "Okay, I will tell you the specific working hours and work content next time. Go home. Wait for the notification.”
"Is this the end? Can I be considered successful in joining the job?" Gao Ming did not expect that the female clerk would let him go home directly.
"You need to go through professional training before joining the job, but don't worry, the boss will definitely not let an excellent employee like you go, so just wait and see, he will come to you in person sooner or later." The female clerk said this When he spoke, his expression was very strange, implying excitement and expectation, and a sense that it was not too big a deal to watch the excitement: "If you really don't want to go home, I don't mind giving you a make-up class alone, anyway, the store is No one.”
Gao Ming could clearly hear the screams in the experience center, but the clerk said that there was no one in the store. He frowned and shook his head: "I'll wait for your notification."
Turning around and entering the elevator, Gao Ming stood facing the Ninth Experience Center. At the last moment when the elevator door closed, he saw the female clerk tearing the sutures on her neck and playing with her head.
"Connector...connector?"
The numbers on the elevator display kept changing, and various thoughts came to Gao Ming's mind: "The world I saw while in coma was definitely related to Yongsheng Pharmaceutical. After all, I used their latest technology. As long as I continue to participate Their brain game testing, increasing their authority step by step, should give them a chance to figure everything out.”
After leaving the hospital and living with Liu Yi, Gao Ming gradually returned to reality, and the scenes in his nightmares continued to be forgotten. This was an irreversible process, but he did not expect to find some memory fragments in the Mortal Lunatic Asylum, and now he I was entangled with that nightmare again, and as soon as I closed my eyes, I seemed to be able to see myself dying tragically one by one.
"Death? Rebirth? Loading files? Loop?" Gao Ming couldn't understand and couldn't figure it out.
Arriving at the station in a daze, Gao Ming sat silently in the waiting room and missed several intercity trains. When it was almost dark, he stopped thinking and got on the express train leaving the smart city.
"The Xinhu Smart City was built a long time ago, but people did not usher in the technological explosion they imagined. There seems to be some kind of force intervening in everything, and everyone seems to be restricted."
The scenery outside the window is changing rapidly, from high-rise buildings to piles of dilapidated old apartments, only an hour's drive away.
Many people who work in smart cities are like Gao Ming. They take the bus back to the old city after get off work. They look tired and numb, as if they are trapped in their own cage.
Quietly pressing the walkie-talkie that was kept close to him, Gao Ming took out the blood-stained newspapers and read them: "They are all murder cases that happened decades ago. Most of the dead were related to the toilet, and some were broken into pieces and rushed in." Some people were strangled in the bathroom bathtub. Why was the toilet doctor so obsessed with the toilet? "The express train was about to arrive. In order not to worry Liu Yi, Gao Ming put away the newspaper: "I got a lot of things when I went out today. , but it always feels like something is missing?”
Gao Ming subconsciously touched behind him and suddenly stood up from his seat: "My cat!"
Before playing in the haunted house, Gao Ming left the cat bag at the payment desk of the Magic City Lunatic Asylum and forgot to take it back when he left.
The arrival signal sounded, and Gao Ming was pushed out of the station by the crowd. He stood among the dilapidated buildings in the old city with a wry smile.
Gao Ming had been thinking about things related to nightmares in his mind, and Gao Ming ignored the reality. There seemed to be a voice in the dark telling him that he was surrounded by love and care, so why did he turn back and run into the darkness?
If you don’t cherish the happiness you have received, it will be too late to regret it after it is destroyed.
I quickly called the Magic City Lunatic Asylum. The staff were very nice. They were very impressed with Gao Ming. They also said that an employee had already sent the cat to Gao Ming.
With his anxious heart falling back into his stomach, Gao Ming rode a shared bicycle to the flower shop and vegetable market before heading home.
Passing between low apartment buildings, Gao Ming smelled the aroma of food as soon as he entered the corridor. His tense nerves were relieved at this moment. This dilapidated and crowded corridor gave him a special sense of security.
Opening the door, the fatigue in Gao Ming's eyes was melted by the warm light. But at the next moment, he took back the steps he took.
Standing in the living room was a strange woman who looked less than twenty years old. She had a childish and shy expression, but a tall and slender figure. She seemed to have a slightly allergic reaction to her face due to long-term use of low-quality cosmetics.
Seeing Gao Ming come back, the woman became even more embarrassed and accidentally kicked the empty cat bag next to her.
"Who are you?"
"I'm the ghost in charge of your single line. I'm here to deliver the cat. You can just call me Winter Melon." Seeing that Gao Ming hadn't thought of it yet, the woman crossed her arms and looked back, making a very twisted posture.
Just at this moment, the kitchen curtain opened. Liu Yi heard the door open and looked out with a spatula. He happened to see the twisted and deformed Winter Melon and Gao Ming, whose hair and cheeks were stained with blood, standing opposite each other.
Donggua's face turned red immediately. It was too shameful to pose like this without makeup outside the haunted house.
"You still know how to go home, are you crazy? You don't even want the cat I gave you." After a busy day, Liu Yi found that Gao Ming was not at home after get off work. She bought vegetables and prepared to make something delicious for Gao Ming. Halfway through, a strange woman came to the door with a fortune.
"I'm going for a job interview." Gao Ming showed Liu Yi the form the female clerk asked him to fill out. While Liu Yi was flipping through it, he took out the flowers he bought from the flower shop and placed them on the empty vase on the dining table: "I'll be back When you are here, go to the supermarket and buy what you like to eat. You can rest for a while and I will cook.”
Looking at the dense terms and haunted house recruitment forms on her phone, Liu Yi looked at the blood stains on Gao Ming's hair and cheeks. In her eyes, Gao Ming seemed to have been running around all afternoon and had been greatly wronged.
Yes, how could you make yourself so embarrassed by going to a haunted house and playing games?
