In the common areas of the Ghost Electric Company, you can see some wall-mounted flat-screen TVs everywhere. On those televisions, a promotional video of the company was being shown around the clock.

The content is roughly as follows......

[Fierce ghost power company, we will always climb new heights! ] We make your car start, make your home warm, light up the city you live in, and accompany you every day......] Accompanied by the narration, the promotional video also plays a variety of corresponding popular science illustrations, [We have the best scare employees in the whole monster kingdom, in the scare house, the humans who are teleported will experience suffocating horror, and the high-quality fear will be converted into a continuous and stable energy for you to use! 】

We know that human beings are getting weaker and weaker, and they are getting bolder. But we are brave enough to accept the challenges of the future! The company has the most intimidating employees, the best power generation equipment, and is already working on new energy technologies. We...... It's the Ghost Power Company! We_scare！ because_we_care！ 】

In the lounge of the company's security department, Ruoyu watched the above promotional video for several minutes with a blank face.

"Basically, is it the setting of Monster Inc. (an animated film made by Pixar)......" This sentence is Ruoyu's after-viewing.

Buzz -

Just then, the door to the room opened.

Outside the door walked a slender female monster, her body in the shape of a human, wearing a smart black suit. It has more than a dozen eyes, large and small, and has no ears or nose, but a mouth......

"Hello, ma'am." With a professional and calm temperament, she walked slowly to the table and chairs in the lounge, raised her hand to Ruoyu, and said, "Let's sit down and talk." ”

Ruoyu nodded slightly, walked over silently, and sat down.

Duomu sat down across from her, and then said, "Introduce yourself, I'm the manager of the security department, Duomu. ”

"You can call me like rain." Ruoyu replied in her usual tone.

"Yes, Lady Rain." "Let's get straight to the point...... her eyes changed slightly, and she continued, "You're a traveler from another world, aren't you?" ”

Ruoyu thought for a moment and responded, "That's right. ”

"Hmm...... Really. "Our Monster Kingdom...... There have been rumors about you for a long time, in the form of urban weirdos. ”

"A ghost with more than a dozen eyes actually said that I was an urban monster...... Ruoyu couldn't help but vomit in his heart, but on the surface he still replied quietly, "Then you should know something about us." ”

"I know some, but rumors are just rumors after all, most of them are one-sided, and it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood." Duomu replied, "At the end of the day...... We are just an electric company, not a law enforcement agency of the kingdom. So, I'm thinking about it as well...... Whether or not to hand you over to the relevant authorities. ”

"No, you've thought about it." Ruoyu immediately threw a sharp gaze at the other party, "Or rather, your superior has already made up his mind." She intersected her fingers, rested her elbows on the table, leaned forward slightly with her upper body, and put on a confident appearance (in fact, she was unaware of it), glaring at Duo Mu and said, "This exchange between you and me at this moment is essentially a kind of negotiation. You desperately want information from me, but you don't know what to do in exchange. So, you start with the question of 'whether to hand me over to the relevant authorities' and put it bluntly...... It is a threat to my personal freedom and safety. She snorted coldly, "It's a pity...... Your negotiation strategy is wrong. ”

"Oh? Why? Tamu pretended to be calm and answered.

"Because...... We can leave your world at any time if we wish. Suddenly, another voice came from within the wall on one side of the room, "Death...... It's just a way to leave. ”

Before he could finish speaking, the top half of the wall began to glow faintly, and gradually faded until it became a transparent piece of glass.

On the other side of the glass was a dark room. At this time, there were two people standing side by side in the dark room, one was the boss of the Ghost Power Company, Freddy. Guge (the classic villain of the horror series "Ghost Street"), the other is Feng Bujue.

"Why did you get there?" Ruoyu turned her head to look at Brother Jue and asked directly, she knew that the other party could hear her.

"Ah...... I'll be a few minutes ahead of you. Feng Bujue replied with a smile.

He raised his hands as he spoke. Ruoyu found out that Brother Jue had a pair of handcuffs on his wrists.

"Mr. Mad Man, it was you who promised not to interfere with their conversation that I allowed you to sit in the observation room with me." Freddy turned his head at this time, looked at Brother Jue and said, "Why don't you keep your word?" ”

"The negotiations are over, can't you see that?" Feng Bujue tilted his head and replied mockingly, "My companion has seen through your strategy from the beginning and has seen through your bottom line. And you still don't know anything about her, and she won't tell you anything...... Therefore, it is just a waste of time to continue. ”

"Hah......" Freddy sighed deeply when he heard this. In the next second, he waved his hand, and the wall between the two rooms dissipated into green light.

"Are you alright?" When Ruoyu saw that the wall was gone, he immediately stood up and walked towards Feng Bujue.

"Don't worry." Brother Jue replied with a smile, and immediately raised his hand to pull it. In the next second, the iron handcuffs on his wrists were broken in response.

When Ruoyu saw this scene, he also calmed down and dispelled the idea of being rescued by force.

When Freddy and Tamu saw this, their expressions changed. The former also took two steps back nervously, and pulled a little distance from Feng Bujue before saying, "Mr. Crazy...... It seems that you are deeply hidden......"

"Heh......" Feng Bujue smiled at the other party, "I didn't resist when I was handcuffed, just to express my sincerity in cooperation." He paused, a hint of hideousness flashed in his eyes, "Break it off now, it's to tell you that if you want to resort to force, I will accompany you to the end." ”

"I see...... Freddy muttered, "I'm sorry, I was rude. ”

As a horror movie villain with a high intelligence, Freddy almost instinctively sensed danger from Jue Ge. This traveler from another world of unknown origin is moody and unpredictable, and there is not the slightest panic or timidity from beginning to end, as if he is in control...... In the face of such an opponent, Freddy naturally did not dare to be careless.

"It doesn't matter." Feng Bujue spread out his hands and replied easily, "At least...... From this point on, we can discuss cooperation in a more reciprocal way. ”

"What you're referring to is ......," Freddy said tentatively.

"You, all the people of the Ghost Power Company...... Coordinate with my squad. Feng Bujue replied, "Let's deal with the 'real invaders' together." ”

"What's that?" Freddy asked again.

"That's your catastrophe...... Feng Bujue instantly changed to a solemn expression, "I have a reliable piece of information, at this moment, a very powerful humanoid lifeform half a dimension higher than you has come to this universe, and ...... It's lurking in your company. He and Freddy looked at each other for two seconds, observing the change in each other's expressions, "I don't know his/her gender or name yet, but ...... I can sue you that his/her race, known as the 'Derivatives', is an extremely dangerous race, and for you, they have the ability to approach the gods......" Brother Jue said, raising his hand and pointing at Tamu, "Like this lady with many eyes, with her strength, ......" A few black wisps of number quickly flashed in his eyes, "...... It is very likely to be directly manipulated by the derivative and become a puppet that obeys his word. ”

"You'd better have some basis in what you say!" Tamu immediately retorted in a fierce tone. This is also strange, and anyone who hears such words will feel annoyed.

"Huh...... I'll just give you an example. Feng Buju's face changed faster than turning a book, and in the blink of an eye, he changed to a warm smile like the wind, "Please don't be surprised." ”

On the other side, Freddy pondered for a moment, then touched his festering chin and asked, "Do you have any evidence...... Can you support this statement? ”

"Not yet, but ......," Feng replied, "I'm afraid it's too late by the time you get tangible evidence......

"With all due respect, Mr. Mad Man." Freddy continued, "I can't fully trust you. ”

"If you don't believe me for a while, it's okay." Feng Bujue had already guessed this outcome, "Right now I just have another thing to do, if you can allow it, then I can further express my sincerity in this matter." ”

"Oh?" Freddy wondered, "What's the matter?" ”

…………

Five minutes later, the company underground garage.

"I've told you everything I know! Don't do this! I just want to go home! Edward, who was kneeling on the ground, had already explained his birthday, and he was about to reveal the black history of lifting girls' skirts in elementary school, but the three players still had no intention of letting him go.

"How?" Tired Dream also looked at Xiao Ling and asked. For some reason, he seems to regard Xiao Ling as the person who talks here.

"Hmm...... It really doesn't seem like there's anything to ask. Xiao Ling said thoughtfully.

It has only been more than ten minutes since Edward's capture. During this period of time, Xiao Ling had already asked the other party for valuable information in a very organized manner, and successfully mastered some of the basic worldview of the Monster Kingdom.

"But there's one thing...... Very strange. Greedy Wolf said.

"Yes...... Xiao Ling also nodded and muttered, "Why hasn't the main quest been triggered yet......

[Uh-huh, hey, hey~ Can you hear me? ] Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded on the radio in the parking lot.

In fact, it's not just parking lots...... In the entire Fierce Ghost Power Company, there was a sound of unaware speech.

[I'm unaware, I'm with the rain now. All of you on the Hell front, and ...... Tired of dreams, greedy wolves, you two, listen well. Jue Ge Tong Guò said on the radio, "Please go to the neighborhood immediately find a security guard and ask him to take you to the company's security department. He paused for two seconds, and then said, "You should have noticed that the main quest hasn't been brushed out until now. I can tell you in no uncertain terms that this is the derivative guide. The second half of his words sounds completely different to NPCs, because they have been blocked and converted by the system, [remember the core content of the V1.10 patch - in the new version, anyone who enters the nightmare difficulty team script with six people will have a 0.2 chance of encountering a derivative. Right now, we're just in the middle of it. 】

At this point, players who heard this broadcast have basically confirmed that this is not a trap. Because...... It's possible for NPCs in the script to impersonate players to make broadcasts, but they're never going to say anything like the V1.10 patch. Again...... Feng Bujue's unique tone is indeed difficult to imitate.

[Now the script has not been started for half an hour, and the number of derivatives has not yet taken shape. But...... I can already conclude that this time we met such powerful characters that the plot of the script itself was affected. Brother Jue's words continued, [If I'm not mistaken, when the derivative is fully generated, the main quest prompt will sound, and it must be a quest directly related to the derivative. He sighed, "Simply...... The system is now also waiting, ready to make arrangements on a case-by-case basis. So...... We better hurry up and prepare. 】

Speaking of which, he felt that it was almost the same, so he finally followed: [In short, please come as soon as possible, let's talk about the specific things when we meet.] 】

…………

At the same time, the Ministry of Security, the general control room.

"Alright, I'm done." Feng unconsciously turned off the microphone button and turned back to Freddy.

"So...... Let's wait and see. Freddy crossed his hands on his hips and looked at the many surveillance images in front of him.

"I don't know." At this time, Ruoyu, who had been standing behind and remained silent, suddenly said to Brother Jue, "Xiao Si may not be able to come." ”

"Huh? What's wrong? When Feng Bujue answered, he had already glanced at the game menu, "He's obviously still alive?" ”

"I don't know about anyone else, but he certainly didn't hear the broadcast." If the rain continues.

"How do you know?" Brother Jue asked.

"Alas......" Ruoyu sighed, raised her right hand, and tapped her right side with her index finger.

Feng Bujue followed the direction of her finger, and his gaze quickly stayed on a small screen in the corner of the room.

At this moment, such a scene is playing on the screen...... There was a square room, and in one corner of the room, there was a dresser and a chair. On the chair, a woman in red sits, combing her hair unhurriedly in the mirror. And in the other corner of the room, there is a man (sigh). He was squatting in the corner, his arms folded on his knees, staring at the woman with her hair combed profusely sweating, not even daring to breathe. RS
