Chapter 45: Reminiscence
The building of the headquarters of the Inhuman Forum is located in the Linghai Science and Technology Park on the outskirts of Shanghai, and unlike ordinary network technology companies, the headquarters of the Forum did not buy one or two buildings, but the entire 30-hectare science and technology park, and they could buy such a piece of land in a place like Shanghai.......
"It's really rich."
Di Xiao couldn't help but sigh, although this is not the first time he has come here, but every time he comes, he still can't help but marvel, don't look at the Inhuman Forum, there are not many users, only hundreds of thousands, but they do have a lot of ways to make money, in addition to undertaking various advertisements related to Inhuman, the forum also contracted the handling of most of the abnormal cases in China.
In fact, only a small number of the different cases handled by the Secret Bureau occur in China, if the number of different cases is 10 percent, then the Secret Bureau may only be responsible for handling 30 percent of them, and most of the remaining different cases are transferred to the Strangers in various places, and the forums will appear as intermediaries in these different cases, and the Forum will take 20 to 30 percent of the commissions from the parties regardless of how much they pay the Strangers for their work.
In other words, if no one pays for a different case, such as the Chengnan case, then the Inhuman Forum will definitely not come forward to get involved, they will directly transfer the case to the Secret Bureau, and throw it to those model workers in the Secret Bureau.
In addition to the transactions of the intermediary of the case, they will also advertise various commercial organizations related to the stranger on the website, and will also arrange jobs for the stranger who is looking for a job, and then receive a commission from the worker.
From the point of arranging work, the Inhuman Forum has won the favor of most Inhumans, after all, this is a very realistic world, even Inhumans have to worry about firewood, rice, oil and salt, and no one dares to rely on their own ability to do whatever they want in society, after all, there are knives hanging over their heads to guard the secret bureau, and Inhumans who dare to do anything wrong are dead.
The main company of the Inhuman Forum is more business-minded than the average Inhuman family, and when they make the first pot of gold, the money is like a snowball, and they continue to carry out external business with the company's principal, and get involved in the field of medical and network technology, and even some business branches are connected with ordinary people, just dressed in the cloak of other companies.
At this moment, there was a dense burst of gunfire from the newsgroup building, but because the sound source was too high, it did not sound so clear when the gunshots came down.
When Di Xiao looked up, he saw that the window of the news group's conference room had been smashed open by a figure.
The man took the initiative to break through the window and jumped down, as if he was running away from something out of fear, and looking at the anxious look when he broke the glass, it seemed that it was better for him to jump off the building than to stay in the house.
Di Xiao squinted and saw that the person who jumped off the building seemed to be holding a cone-shaped object in his hand.
At this time, the voices of his subordinates also came from the headphones worn by Di Xiao.
"Boss, Zhao Kang took the lead in resisting, and the scene has been suppressed by us." The subordinate said, his tone was a little nervous, as if he was afraid that Di Xiao would get angry because of his disadvantage, "The others have already been shot on the spot, only Zhao Kang jumped down...... Are you downstairs? Can you see him? ”
Di Xiao looked at the figure that kept falling down, and hummed softly and said that he could see it.
"They are all aliens, but only Zhao Kang's strength is stronger, and he dodged the bullet in time and ran away."
"You don't care about this, I'll clean him up."
At the same time, Zhao Kang, who kept falling downstairs, was already anxious, he didn't think about anything now, he just wanted to use all means to live, at this moment he had already figured it out, this time the news team was unlucky enough to touch the mold of the secret bureau, and the boss of the forum, the boss, in order to calm the anger of the secret bureau, directly sold everyone in their news group.
Selling a group of newsgroups can be exchanged for temporary stability, and it can also calm the anger of the secret bureau......
Why not?
If Zhao Kang is the boss of the forum company, he will definitely make the same decision, the newsgroup will be gone, and the big deal is to recruit people again, if you can't recruit ordinary people in the alien circle, there are so many people engaged in journalism in China, and you are afraid that you won't be able to find someone if you have money?
"I can't die...... Can't die ......."
When falling downstairs, Zhao Kang slammed into the wall with the demon-slaying pestle in his hand, and suddenly the speed of falling down became much slower, and the demon-slaying pestle continued to tear the wall and produced huge friction with it, but Zhao Kang's physical fitness obviously couldn't withstand this kind of force, and the muscles of his arms were almost twisted and spasmed, and the severe pain made him feel the urge to faint at any time.
But it is undeniable that his desire to survive is very strong, even though the pain in his arms is unbearable, he still drags the demon pestle in his hand and keeps sliding downstairs.
In the process of landing, Zhao Kang found that the science and technology park was empty, and it seemed that it had been cleared a long time ago, and even the security guards who used to patrol in line could not see it...... But it was good, at least better than he expected, he thought there was a group of armed men downstairs with guns aimed at him.
Of course, he soon found himself thinking too well.
Because when he descended to the height of about ten floors, he gradually saw an acquaintance standing in the shadow in the corner of the building.
It was none other than Di Xiao, who was holding a black light pistol and aiming at Zhao Kang.
Zhao Kang didn't care if Di Xiao could hear what he said, he said a word tremblingly.
"Don't."
Shots rang out.
Three gunshots rang out in a row, and Zhao Kang's forehead instantly had three more blood holes, and the hands that were clenching the demon pestle were also weakly released, like garbage falling from a high altitude, and fell heavily in front of the hall door with the sound of whistling wind.
Maybe that's a signal.
After Zhao Kang landed, the members of the armed forces department upstairs also began to follow orders, and kept throwing corpses out of the gap in the conference room window.
A series of dull sounds represented the end of the mission.
"Director, it's done." Di Xiao dialed the phone in time and reported the situation to his superiors as soon as possible, "We have all done everything in the news team, what do you need to do now?" Let's go straight back to the capital? ”
"Drive to the outside of the science park and wait for me." The old man's voice was still so relaxed and casual, and the laughter sounded indescribably kind, "I'll come down soon." ”
Get down?
Di Xiao was a little stunned, and instinctively looked up, as if he was looking for something.
"You're here too?!"
"I'm catching up with their boss, and I'll talk about other things, let's hang up first."
"Ah...... Good! I understand! ”
After hanging up the phone, Di Xiao still didn't come back to his senses, but he didn't think much about it, took out an object the size of a mobile phone from his pocket, and slowly walked towards the corpses piled up on the ground.
It is the C12 miniature spirit cage developed by the scientific research department a few years ago, with the blessing of the internal Taoist talisman, the spirit can be imprisoned in it for up to a year, and it can also ensure the activity of the spirit, and will not weaken itself because it cannot contact the yin particles in the outside world.
Di Xiao is not a character who will casually believe in others, there are almost no two words of trust in his dictionary, so if Zhao Kang and others denied it before, Di Xiao did not believe it all, what he has to do now is to detain the spirits of these deceased, bring them back to the headquarters, and then use special means to test whether what they say is true or false.
Whether it is true or not, they will inevitably be reincarnated in the end, because it is one thing before a person dies, and it is another thing after death, and the accounts that should be paid have been settled, and there is no need to kill them all.
The building in the deepest part of the park does not belong to any working group, and there are only a few clerks busy in the ordinary building, and most of the work is done in the form of financial accounting.
The office of the owner of the forum company is located in this building, and it is on the top floor, which overlooks the entire science and technology park.
At this time, the boss of the forum company was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, looking at Di Xiao who was busy collecting souls in the park.
The boss's surname is Song Luojin, and according to rumors, he seems to have been born in a certain folk lineage, and was once the number one person in the Inhuman circle decades ago.
"I've long since let them converge...... Who is to blame for this......"
Song Luojin silently looked at everything that happened in the park, his face was neither sad nor angry, as calm as a bottomless pool of water, as if he had already guessed that things would develop to this point, and he was not surprised by everything that happened today.
Just as he was about to call his men to calm down the employees hiding in various office buildings, he suddenly heard a strange sound.
It was as if someone was sitting on the sofa, and it seemed that they had picked up the teacup on the table and poured themselves a drink.
"Who?!"
Song Luojin turned his head suddenly, but before he could make any further movements, he only found that a long knife was set up on his neck, which seemed to be a special tactical knife made within the secret bureau, the jet-black blade was slender and slightly curved, and the bloodletting grooves on both sides were also extremely conspicuous and dazzling.
"Don't move." The knife-wielding man stared at Song Luojin expressionlessly, and his tone of voice was frighteningly cold, "I haven't liked you very much, so don't let me have a chance to cut your flesh with a knife." ”
After Song Luojin saw the face of the knife-wielding man, he couldn't help but smile in the process of raising his hands to show surrender.
"Minister Yan, what kind of wind blew you here?"
Yan Qing didn't answer his question, just turned his head and glanced at the sofa.
Following Yan Qing's gaze, Song Luojin turned his head sideways, and his expression instantly froze on his face.
On the sofa sat an old man in a suit and leather shoes like a gentleman, his snow-white hair was also neatly groomed, and he wore a dark gold bracelet on his right wrist, on which there were many densely carved talismans, and it seemed to be imprinted with some indecipherable incantation, and the bracelet itself was faintly shining with a faint golden light.
"Weekly Bureau..... Director Zhou, why are you here......"
Song Luojin's smile was stiff, and a hint of nervousness flashed in his eyes.
"If you want to come, don't tell me, I'll pick up ...... myself"
"I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to meet you."
The old man put the teacup on the coffee table, and the smile on his face was still there, but that kind expression made Song Luojin shudder.
"Xiao Song, I know that you are their person, so I came this time to catch up with you...... I guess you don't mind, right? ”
