Chapter 193: The Soldiers Are Coming
The rooftop is originally a public place, and even if someone wants to come up, there is no need to knock on the door, unless he knows in advance that there is someone on the rooftop.
I walked quickly to the door: "Who's knocking?" ”
"Mr. Wu, my name is Ji Liping, and I am Miss Guan Tianyan's assistant......" Behind the rooftop gate is a woman in professional attire, even if it is night now, the other party is still dressed appropriately and still maintains her professionalism.
I let Ji Liping to the edge of the tent, and she said again, "Miss Guan asked me to come and tell you about the situation after we encountered the ghosts. ”
I looked at Ji Liping and said, "Didn't Guan Tianyan already tell me once?" ”
Ji Liping said: "With the status of the eldest lady, she doesn't need to do everything herself, and she doesn't know many things. For example, the missing workers have returned. ”
I nodded, "You see?" ”
"Nope. However, we have a lot of eyewitnesses. Ji Liping said, "The first person to go missing is the chef on the construction site. That day, just a minute before the meal began, someone saw him cooking. When it was time to start the meal, the chef disappeared and did not return until the evening, when the people at the construction site thought that something had happened to him. ”
Ji Liping continued: "The second person who disappeared was the foreman of the Ministry of Civil Works, and he was also without warning before his disappearance. According to eyewitnesses, he was on the hillside near the construction site a minute ago, and when he turned around, he was gone. ”
Later, the police also looked down the hillside, and they said that there was no sign of trampling on the grass. In other words, the foreman disappeared into thin air. ”
I thought for a while and said, "Before you started, did you ask Mr. to see it, or choose an auspicious day for the zodiac or something?" ”
Ji Liping shook her head and said, "If it is a project that the chairman is responsible for, these things will definitely be done." But the eldest lady never believed in this, she just picked a random day to start construction. ”
I nodded slightly, "You go on." ”
Ji Liping said: "If the first two accidents can be explained by accidents, then the third time can only be said to be terrifying." ”
"The third incident occurred on the third day after the foreman incident, when the person in charge of the construction site was discussing how to appease the workers to continue working in the makeshift conference room because of two missing cases, and all six responsible persons disappeared in the closed conference room."
I raised my eyebrows and said, "You tell me carefully." ”
Ji Liping said: "According to eyewitnesses, many workers were resigning because of the disappearance, and the director of works would hold an emergency meeting to discuss how to appease the workers. Because the conference room was relatively simple, the director simply let the curtains be blocked, leaving a few security guards to guard the outside and prevent the workers from approaching casually. ”
The security guard waited outside the conference room for about two hours before he realized something was wrong, and by the time he pushed the door and walked in, all the people in the room had disappeared. Not only are people gone, but even the teacups, notebooks, and phones in the house are all gone, as if no one had ever come. ”
The security guard panicked and quickly climbed out to call someone. The workers who were about to quit were all outside waiting for the result, and when they heard that all the people in the house had disappeared, they immediately dispersed, and those who did not want to quit also ran away. ”
"In the end, it was the security department who called the police. After the police came to understand the situation, they didn't even find a clue, and even suspected that the security guard was making a false report. Eventually, a police officer called the superintendent, but he said he was in a meeting. ”
When the police asked him where he was having a meeting, he said it was in his makeshift office at the site. At that time, more than a dozen people were at the door of the office, and no one saw anyone inside. This time, even the police didn't dare to investigate, and immediately led people to evacuate the construction site. ”
Ji Liping stopped at this point, I casually unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and handed it over: "Drink saliva first." ”
"Thank you." Ji Liping politely took a sip of water before continuing, "The police did not give up the investigation of the disappearance, and also contacted the eldest lady. The eldest lady went to the construction site that night, and it was from that day that strange things happened. ”
I asked in a deep voice, "What's the strange thing, tell me about it." ”
Ji Liping said: "That night, many people were at the door of the temporary conference room, and the police also dialed the director's phone again, and on the other end of the phone, the director still claimed that he was having a meeting in the conference room. ”
"The police monitored the cell phone signal at the time, and finally it did lock the cell phone signal in the conference room. However, no one saw anyone in the room. At that time, the police turned the mobile phone on hands-free, and everyone could hear the superintendent's voice, and they could confirm that the person who answered the phone was the superintendent. ”
The director was disturbed and felt very impatient, and hung up the phone after saying a few words, and the eldest lady simply dialed the phone herself. I still remember what she said: I'm at the door of the conference room, you come out and see me right away. ”
At that time, everyone present was taken aback by the eldest lady. The director is usually most afraid of the eldest lady, and if he is really in the conference room, he will definitely come out. ”
As a result, as soon as the eldest lady finished speaking, the door of the conference room opened. None of us saw anyone come out, but we all felt like there were a lot of people nearby. Those people seemed to be standing near us, but we just couldn't see where they were. ”
"We were all scared, and we were all urging the eldest lady to hurry up, but the eldest lady didn't insist. But when we went down the mountain, we always felt that someone was following us, or more precisely, someone was seeing us off. ”
"I just felt a buzzing in my ears, as if someone was talking, but I couldn't hear what he was saying. We hadn't gone far before I felt someone rush past me and get ahead of my group. ”
"At that time, I don't know who said, 'Why do I think someone is in front,' and we didn't dare to move. I saw with my own eyes that the grass on both sides of the mountain road was being pushed backwards......"
Ji Liping said fearfully: "At that time, I suddenly remembered the first time I accompanied the eldest lady to the mountain to inspect. At that time, there was still a lot of grass on the side of the mountain road, and the director kept walking in front and brought someone to help us pull the grass. ”
"They're still pulling grass for us, but we can't see anyone in front of us. The mountain road is still the same as before, but no matter how I look at it, it looks like a yellow spring road, and I can't see the end of the mountain road from the top of the mountain down, as if we can't turn back when we step on it. ”
Ji Liping stopped at this point, holding the water bottle tightly with both hands, as if she hadn't recovered from the fear at that time.
I waited a while before saying, "So how did you get down?" ”
Ji Liping said: "We don't dare to go forward, but we don't dare to go back, we all stand in place and wait for the eldest lady to speak." At that time, only the eldest lady was our backbone. ”
The eldest lady untied a big coin with a red rope from her neck and carried it in her hand, telling us not to be afraid, just follow her. We watched the eldest lady walk in front with the big coin, and we felt a lot more relieved, and followed her step by step down the mountain. ”
"I don't even know how I got down the hill until I got in the car and my heart was pounding. When I finally came back to my senses, I urged the driver to drive. When we were about to arrive at the company, the eldest lady's phone rang, and the call was from the director. ”
"The policeman sitting in the car motioned for the eldest lady to answer, and after she picked up the phone, the superintendent said over there, reassuring the eldest lady, he will definitely find all the workers back, ensure that the project will be completed on time, and also said that the eldest lady will come over to inspect."
"The superintendent said a lot of things at the time, all about engineering. If he hadn't disappeared at the time, we'd be glad to hear those words, because everyone likes conscientious subordinates. But when we heard these words, we felt chills all over our bodies. The director is missing, the workers are running away, and he says that he wants to complete the project, what project is he going to complete? ”
The eldest lady was also a little pale at the time, and hung up the phone after a few random promises. The policeman also comforted the eldest lady and left. However, it wasn't long before something strange happened. ”
"The police came to the eldest lady every few days, and each time they told her that the workers on the construction site had disappeared en masse, sometimes three or five, sometimes more than ten, and those people had been notified by the company before they disappeared to go back to work, and the person who signed the notice was the eldest lady herself. It was not until all the workers on the site were gone that the disappearance was over. ”
"The police once suspected that they had returned to the construction site, and they also organized two large-scale searches in a row, but they did not find anyone. However, many people saw the workers go into the mountains. After those people entered the mountain, it was as if the world had evaporated, and no one could be found again. ”
Ji Liping trembled: "This is not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is that after the disappearance of the workers, our company's engineers, technical supervision, and engineering inspections have all disappeared one after another. ”
"According to the company's regulations, every stage of the project must be inspected and accepted by full-time personnel. Those people all disappeared in the order in which the project progressed. ”
"I always have a feeling that the director and the workers are all dead, but they are still building houses on the mountain, and every time they finish building a section, they will come back to find someone to check the progress, and the people who go up will never come back."
Ji Liping suddenly cried: "According to the construction period, the main building should be nearing the end now, and I am about to be taken away...... According to the regulations, I am also one of the inspectors......"
I waited for the other party to calm down a bit before asking, "What's the matter with you saying that a missing person has returned?" ”
