Chapter 25: Distress

Chen Xuesong looked at the time, and it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening.

"Are you still at work at this time?"

"You just entered the Special Affairs Bureau, if you go to other private companies to have a look, is it unusual to go to work at this time?"

Wu Yushu felt that when he said this, he was as stupid as Emperor Jin Hui who said why he didn't eat minced meat.

In the whole society, in addition to the Internet industry, there is also the financial industry where overtime is the norm.

They perfectly illustrate the saying that time is money.

"The Special Affairs Bureau is not much better, am I still working now?" Chen Xuesong muttered quietly.

"So much nonsense, let's get inside. Wu Yushu said and pushed the door in directly.

Zhongxin Investment Company is not large, but the decoration is brilliant.

At night, when the lights are fully turned on, there is a dazzling feeling.

The two walked to the front desk.

There was a very nice-looking reception sitting in the back.

It's just that his expression is a little dull, and he looks at the computer in front of him, and he doesn't know what he's thinking.

Chen Xuesong stepped forward and knocked lightly on the table, "Hello, may I ask if Shi Maoxue is here?"

"Shi Maoxue?"

The receptionist, who heard the voice, raised his head.

"Huh?"

Chen Xuesong was surprised.

Not because the reception was beautiful, but because the reception had a stiff face, which gave people a very awkward feeling.

But if you really let him say it, he can't say it.

"Who are you?" asked the receptionist.

The voice is also stiff and does not contain any emotion.

It's almost impossible.

As long as it's a human being, no matter what mood you feel.

As long as you speak, every word actually carries an emotion.

And people like Chen Xuesong, who have studied psychology, are more sensitive to people's language and emotions.

"Police, I want to ask Shi Maoxue about something. Chen Xuesong took out his ID and said.

Wu Yushu also sensed that something was wrong and became more cautious.

However, the reception only glanced at the documents and did not make too many movements.

"Come with me. ”

Then he walked out and led them in the direction of the conference room.

On the way to the conference room, Chen Xuesong kept observing the surroundings.

Because it is a glass wall, all the work areas can be seen clearly.

But the more I observed, the more I felt that this company was weird.

Although the investment company is not large, there are sixty or seventy people.

But everyone worked silently, and no one spoke.

It's a little scary to be quiet.

The only sound, presumably, was the reception in front of him, and the "click" sound of high heels hitting the ground.

What surprised him even more was that when the group of them came in, none of them looked up curiously.

Is discipline so good?

When he came to the conference room, he said, "You guys sit down, I'll call Manager Shi." ”

With that, he turned around and walked out.

"What, what's wrong?" Wu Yushu asked at this time.

Chen Xuesong said several suspicious points he found.

Shi Maoxue came over soon.

Seeing the two of them, he asked with some doubts, "Are you looking for me?"

"Mr. Shi, we have a case, and I hope you can cooperate with the investigation. Wu Yushu said.

Ability is different from weirdness, and it is difficult to simply distinguish them from ordinary people when they are not using ability.

But when they returned to the bureau, they had special instruments that could detect whether Shi Maoxue was capable or not.

When they were talking, Chen Xuesong had been silently observing from the side.

Just like the reception just now, Shi Maoxue seemed to be no different from ordinary people in terms of speech and actions.

But if you look closely, you will see that his movements are a little stiff and unnatural.

The voice is also unemotional and full of mechanical sense.

"I'm working, I'm afraid I don't have time. Shi Maoxue said very calmly.

"Mr. Shi, I hope you can cooperate, it won't delay you much. Wu Yushu continued.

Jingle bells

At this time, Shi Maoxue's mobile phone rang.

He glanced at it and stood up and said, "The boss has something to do with me, and I'm going to work." ”

As he spoke, he was about to go out.

Chen Xuesong hurriedly stood up and stopped in front of him.

"Mr. Shi, please cooperate with our work. ”

The phone continued to ring rapidly, and Shi Maoxue felt as if he was restless.

directly pushed Chen Xuesong.

Chen Xuesong stumbled and almost fell.

"Mr. Shi, please stop immediately and cooperate with our work. Wu Yushu warned.

"My boss has assigned me a task, and I want to work. ”

"Is this your boss's phone number? Or you give me the phone and I'll talk to him." Wu Yushu stretched out his hand and said.

Shi Maoxue immediately took a few steps back.

Neither gave the mobile phone to Wu Yushu, nor did he answer.

And appear more restless.

"My boss has assigned me a task, and I want to work. ”

"My boss has assigned me a task, and I want to work. ”

......

He kept repeating it.

Wu Yushu and Chen Xuesong sensed that something was wrong and silently retreated to the door of the conference room.

Shi Maoxue also rushed to the door of the conference room again and again.

But they were all stopped by Wu Yushu and the others.

The phone rang faster and faster, and Shi Maoxue was scurrying around the conference room like a fly without a head.

And he kept banging his head against the glass wall of the conference room, making a "bang" sound.

But even with such a big movement, no one came to check it.

Wu Yushu and Chen Xuesong didn't step forward either, just stood at the door and observed silently.

This was not a normal situation, and the two of them were secretly vigilant.

Just then, the phone ringing that had been ringing suddenly stopped.

Wu Yushu and Chen Xuesong subconsciously looked at the mobile phone that was held by Shi Maoxue.

But then I was stunned, because it was a wooden hand.

Looking up at Shi Maoxue again, his whole person has become a puppet, like a dummy model in a clothing store.

Because he had been walking around all the time, and now he suddenly became a puppet, so he couldn't stand steadily.

With a "bang", he fell straight to the ground.

Chen Xuesong was curious and wanted to step forward, but was dragged back by Wu Yushu.

Then he cautiously stepped forward and first touched Shi Maoxue's cheek.

Then he reached out and knocked on it, making a dull sound peculiar to wood.

"Captain?"

Chen Xuesong whispered in the back.

"It's been completely turned into a puppet. Wu Yushu said with a serious face.

Jingle bells

Jingle bells

......

At this moment, countless mobile phone ringtones rang at the same time, extremely harsh in the silent company.

"Not good, let's go. ”

Wu Yushu's face changed drastically, and Chen Xuesong rushed out of the conference room.

The two rushed to the corridor, and saw the receptionist who had just led them into the conference room, standing at the end of the corridor and maintaining a posture of answering the phone.

When I saw them, the corners of my mouth were raised, as if I was smiling.

But the stiffness of the face is extremely unnatural, full of contradictions and mysteries.

It makes people feel creepy.

When the two turned around, they saw that the aisle behind them was densely packed with human figures.

They also maintained the posture of answering the phone, standing there quietly, looking directly at the two of them.
