Chapter 18 The Bird
There is a bird in this world, which is snow-white and not afraid of humans.
If someone feeds it for a long time, it will even recognize this person as a parent and keep watch over it at all times.
There is also a bird that is also snow-white, but extremely timid.
Therefore, when people encounter them, they usually use the method of feeding, but distinguish between the two birds.
The bird of its loved ones will soon be locked in a small cage with all its wings cut off, but it will not be afraid of this behavior, but will habitually approach the devil.
The timid bird had asked him why he didn't leave, because he would lose his freedom.
And the dear bird said, I am not not leaving, but waiting for an opportunity, when the night falls, and the devil will take off his garment.
As long as you wear it, you are the embodiment of the devil, and you can naturally do whatever you want.
As a result, when the night covered the whole earth, the bird slew the devil as it said, and became the devil itself, raising its wings of rebirth and disappearing into the dark night sky.
It is the literary bird.
Mu Zhichen discovered Mu Zhishen's crimes more than once.
He didn't think it was Mu Zhishen's good-natured prank, especially when the old man was lying in the hospital bed, he tried to reach for Mu's board of directors and ask everyone to sell their shares and buy D-type shares.
It's a notorious stock, and it's often a recipe for losing money.
Therefore, Mu Zhichen strongly asked Mu Zhishen to leave the board of directors and stop misleading everyone.
At that time, he was sitting in his office, with his back against the door of his room, facing out the window.
There are 73 floors in the Mu Building, Mu Zhichen's office is on the 42nd floor, above which are the offices of other directors of the company and entertainment facilities, and the 60-73 floors are the temporary dormitories set up by the chairman of Mu to facilitate the company's employees to work overtime and stay overnight.
With the design of a high-end serviced apartment, many times, Mu Zhichen doesn't want to go home, so he will ask the secretary to prepare a room and live in it by himself to avoid the interrogation of his family.
Of course, Mu Zhishen also learned the past, but he used it to pick up girls, especially the girls who came from nightclubs, most of them would accompany him to spend the night here and leave the next day.
Over time, some high-level executives who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it also learned Mu Zhishen's way, and secretly asked the secretary to prepare the room in case of emergency.
Naturally, the Mu family didn't stop it, and it was just to pay more water and electricity bills, and people with deep pockets would not work hard for these things.
Below the 42nd floor, where Mu Zhichen is located, it was given to some new enterprises outside as office land.
A businessman will not waste a place of great commercial value.
The Mu building is located in the old town of Xicheng, close to hospitals, municipal administration, schools, and the rental price is slightly cheaper than the central business district, which is more sought after by some established enterprises.
Therefore, it is natural that Mushi has become the longest-preserved commercial building in this area.
Mu Zhichen looked at the white clouds outside the window, but the sun was very bright, he squinted, changed his posture, and made himself more comfortable lying on the office chair.
He was going to close his eyes and rest, and last night's work had cost him a night in which he could sleep peacefully.
As a result, he was very tired now, even though it was only 10 a.m.
Hanging on the bird shelf on the side, a white bird jumped and looked at Mu Zhichen.
It is very similar to Mu Zhichen, both are children who have lost their freedom.
Once, when Mu Zhichen was divorced, he could choose to follow his mother to live overseas again, but he felt that as the future heir of the Mu family, he could not easily give up the family, just like his mother was unwilling to give up her pursuit easily because of love.
As a result, he was wrong, and the Mu family was never the only successor to him.
So, he met Mu Zhishen and Mu Zhishen's mother.
These two people, from the very beginning, approached him with a purpose, hypocrisy, was an adjective that he only understood later, and it was very suitable to describe Mu Zhishen's mother.
Of course, if you mention the in this family, it will be another boring story like the grandmother's footwrap.
In order to establish himself in the family, in order to make his father understand that he is not like his own mother, he will have a ghost in this family, he began to arm himself until he reached adulthood.
"Knock knock." There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Mu Zhichen forced himself to wake up, he turned the chair, turned his body to face the desk, pressed one hand to the center of his eyebrows, rubbed it, and said.
"Mr. Mu." Mu Zhichen's secretary who came in had been with him not long after she graduated.
Mu Zhichen admires this girl very much, simple, motivated, and has never been confused by Mu Zhishen.
"What's the matter?"
"The commercial department downstairs handed over a document, saying that it would be Christmas break in a few days, and I wanted to hold an event." The secretary stepped forward with the document and said to Mu Zhichen.
She is different from ordinary white-collar girls, she is one of the few people who is immune to Mu Zhichen's appearance.
After all, Mu Zhichen is also one of the famous diamond kings in Xicheng, and his excellent appearance has added a lot of points to the girl's heart.
But the girl disagreed, saying that she was here to work and earn money, not to fish.
is such a lovely person, Mu Zhichen smiled at that time and gave her a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan, so that she was directly exempted from the internship and became her exclusive secretary.
All of a sudden, she became the most prominent girl in the recruitment room at that time.
Many people guess that if she either has a background or wants to attract Mu Zhichen's attention through this kind of unconventionality, she is actually still a vulgar and glamorous person.
So, some people deliberately learned, passed the interview, and became the girl's colleague together, supervising whether she is really as she said, only for money, not fame and fortune.
The result can be imagined, otherwise why would she have stayed until now.
Mu Zhichen opened the folder and checked the contents.
Because the 1st to 5th floors are rented out to a department store to do business, it is natural to have a long-term cooperative relationship with the commercial department.
Merchants provide venues, and department stores promote merchants' goods for free, so as to achieve a win-win situation, which is a situation that every businessman is happy to see.
Christmas...... It's a good idea.
Mu Zhichen instructed a few words, drew and wrote on the plan, eliminated the cumbersome parts, put forward the inner creativity, and said: "Show the planning team and let them connect with the business team." I approved this plan. ”
"Okay."
"Oh, yes." Mu Zhichen stopped the secretary who turned to leave, "I have something to go out in the afternoon, you can help me block it, and call me at any time if there is anything." ”
"Understood." The secretary bowed to Mu Zhichen and walked out softly, without taking the door.
Mu Zhichen, who lost his sleepiness, stretched his waist, he originally planned to continue to take a nap, but there was a tingling pain in his empty stomach, so he had to leave the office chair, pick up the cereal in the cabinet and walk out.
Outside the office, everyone is busy, and occasionally a few hide in the pantry to chat about gossip, or run outside with cigarettes to laze off.
Mu Zhichen had no intention of driving away, he responded to the greetings of others along the way, sat on the white folding chair in the pantry, and waited for the water to boil.
"Mr. Mu." At the first minute, the little girl from the design group passed by.
"Hmm."
"Mu is always good." In the third minute, the boys from the sales department passed by.
“…… Hello. ”
"Mu ...... Mu is always good. "At the fifteenth minute, a stuttering programmer from the technical department passed by.
“…… It's okay, you don't have to be afraid. Finally couldn't help it, Mu Zhichen stood up, took the water, and said.
The aroma of cereal suddenly wafted through the pantry, attracting the greedy little ones.
There are people seated close to the pantry, whispering.
"It turns out that Mr. Mu also likes Guige oatmeal, it's great, get the same style!"
"yes, yes, it smells plain, I think the chocolate flavor is delicious."
"Why, strawberry-flavored ones are fine."
"Oh, don't talk about it, I'm hungry."
"You ......" Mu Zhichen took the cup and walked behind the group of girls who were talking in a whisper, "If you have time to speak with your mouth, you might as well try typing with your tongue, so that things will come out better." With that, he walked straight to his office, leaving the girls stunned and sitting in place.
Back in the office, after feeding the birds, Mu Zhichen picked up his mobile phone and dialed the phone, and after waiting for a while, it was connected.
Mu Zhichen stood in front of the windowsill, looking at the traffic as thin as ants downstairs, and her deep voice sounded by the microphone, her tone was lazy, as if she was chatting with her close friends about ordinary private matters.
He looked up at the clock hanging on the wall, checked the time with the person on the other end of the phone, and finally, with a smile on his lips, teased a few words, hung up the phone, and began to sit at his desk, as a hard-working machine that has no feelings.
The clouds outside slowly moved away, the sunlight sprinkled on the sofa near the windowsill, the golden light baked on the black sofa, and gradually surfaced a caramel color, Mu Zhichen's secretary saw the sofa in the hot sunlight when he sent the documents in, and closed the curtains with some pity.
All of a sudden, the gloomy room was brightly lit only by incandescent lights.
Mu Zhichen didn't care about these changes, he just typed the text on the computer, which was the final draft of a plan.
The content of the plan is very simple, but there are still a little flaws in the drainage, and it is not difficult for Mu Zhichen, who is familiar with the goods, to modify these flaws.
Therefore, at 11:52, he sent the plan to the chairman's special mailbox in read-only form.
Mu Zhichen twisted his neck, picked up his mobile phone, put it in his trouser pocket, and walked out of the office.
"Mr. Mu, aren't you coming back in the afternoon?" The secretary confirmed.
"Is there a meeting or?"
"It's still a Christmas holiday event, and the planning department said that they had contacted the mall and wanted to have a three-way meeting."
"It's set for 10 a.m. tomorrow, and I'll have someone from the merchandise department bring something good."
"Okay."
"Also, if someone asks me where I've been in the afternoon, you'll say I've been invited to inspect the goods." Indeed, Mu Zhichen accepted Cui Zifeng's invitation to go to the store to see the new exquisite ornaments.
The secretary hastily recorded it in a notebook, and then accompanied Mu Zhichen to leave by elevator.
The two did not go out on the same floor, but staggered the place, this Mu Zhichen did not interfere too much, after all, the employees completed their work at the time when they were about to rest, and it was their freedom to do anything, and they did not need to be like a kindergarten teacher, always watching.
When the time stops at exactly 12 noon, it is revealed to the earth, which is the story that happened 60 days before the disappearance.
