Chapter XII

"How do you know they're going to confiscate their phones?"

Back in the office area, Chen Xizhou couldn't help but ask about the radish.

Radish spied around and replied mysteriously, "That's their way of doing things." He walked over to Chen Xizhou and sat down, "So, I reminded you not to add people in the game to be good friends, if they find out, it is likely that they will think that you have leaked the company's secrets." ”

Chen Xizhou's eyes dodged for a moment: "Are what they said true?" ”

"What's really fake?" Turnip's tone was much more serious than ever, "You have to be clear, their purpose now is not to find someone to leak or who to sabotage, right now, their most urgent thing is to find a scapegoat, you know?" ”

"Scapegoat?"

"How not?"

Radishes' words seemed to make sense, and Chen Xizhou's uneasiness became more and more intense.

"A vulnerability leaked information, followed by another vulnerability, and the connection was directly disconnected......"

"Will they check their phones one by one?" Chen Xizhou interrupted the radish because he was too nervous, "Is this an invasion of privacy?" ”

"Violation?" Radish made sure that Chen Xizhou was sober today, "When you came to work, didn't you read the company's articles of association carefully?" What privacy? What is a violation? They only need one of your accounts to find out everything, and you have no privacy in front of them. ”

"Huh?" Chen Xizhou opened his mouth and was stunned.

"Now, it's just a matter of handing over your phone, they're still kind and tell you, it's just to check if you have a record of violations, so ......" Radish patted Chen Xizhou on the shoulder, telling him to take matters into account, and then returned to his seat.

Chen Xizhou adjusted his state for a long time, facing the desktop again, but the open computer did not have a game that could be entered. The background is carrying out data screening and cleaning work, and everyone who enters the game will check one by one whether there is any intention.

This moment seems to be very sudden, but it doesn't seem to be unexpected.

Chen Xizhou seemed to think of something and walked out of the office area.

Seeing him suddenly leave his seat, Radish hurriedly asked, "Why are you going?" ”

"Go to the toilet!" Chen Xizhou left the office area without looking back.

Radish thought he was really going to the bathroom, after all, the meeting just now was not easy. But Chen Xizhou didn't go, he took the elevator all the way down and walked out of the company building.

It was the first time he had left the company during working hours. He knew that when he left the door of the company, there was already a machine recording his data, and as long as he checked it, he knew that he had no record of asking for leave or going out on business, but at this moment, he didn't think about it so much, and he left first. He just wants to go to one place now, day and night!

Chen Xizhou walked a long way to find a car, and he couldn't call a car because he didn't have a mobile phone.

"Time Machine Bar."

Chen Xizhou leaned on the back seat of the car, looked at the scenery of the city, and followed the shaking of the car all the way here.

The first time he saw this small bar building in the daylight, it was much more dilapidated than he had imagined. The simple two-story red brick house, with colored light tubes around its signboard, is much dimmer because it is not lit.

In front of the door of the bar, there were no two big men, who were lifelessly hidden.

Chen Xizhou walked to the door and gently pushed the door, but to his surprise, the door was not locked. Pushing open the door, the room was still dark, and the only few stops were orange lights.

Chen Xizhou walked into the bar, compared to the noise and noise of the night, except for the residual smell of tobacco and alcohol, it was too quiet at the moment.

The door closed automatically behind him, restoring the darkness here. He also gradually got used to this kind of gaze, and under the guidance of the faint light, he found a few people lying on a corner sofa sleeping soundly, probably people who had a hangover last night, and they didn't have the strength to go back.

At the bar, there was no bartender, only a man dressed in black, sitting there, as if he was still drinking.

The further he walked, the man's back was clear, and for the first time, he noticed that above the bathroom door next door, there was a clock, and the time here seemed to stand still, and he didn't see it move in the slightest.

"Hello......" Chen Xizhou walked behind him and greeted him.

The man put down his wine glass, turned his head, and looked at Chen Xizhou with an expression of no surprise.

Chen Xizhou knew him, and he couldn't help but point at him and ask, "...... you You are, the ...... Cheng Jiyun ......"

"Hello, my name is Mu San." The man turned around, held out his hand, and greeted him formally.

"I've seen you several times." Chen Xizhou said, "My friend Cheng Jiyun and I have looked for you......"

"Yes." He nodded and asked Chen Xizhou to sit down together.

"But ......" Chen Xizhou was suddenly a little confused, how could he meet him? How could it be so coincidental that he was the one who came here to meet?

"Was it a surprise?" Mu San smiled slightly.

"No, it's not." Chen Xizhou smirked, "What's wrong with you?" How did you stay here? ”

"I'll wait for you here."

"Wait for me?"

"Well, since you've been invited, I can't let you fly into the air." Mu San smiled mysteriously.

Chen Xizhou suddenly understood something: "You are the person from the club?" ”

"Clever." Mu San took a sip of wine.

Chen Xizhou was surprised and delighted, but full of questions: "Why do you give me so much money?" ”

"That's not my money." Kisan replied, "That's yours." ”

"No, it's not." Chen Xizhou became nervous, "Then you won, it has nothing to do with me." ”

"No, at least that little girl won."

"But...... I don't know where she is......" Chen Xizhou looked dazed, "I shouldn't take this money, no matter how I say it." ”

"Whether it should be or not, it's already yours." Mu San looked at him, "You are still the first person I met who didn't want money." ”

"No, no." Chen Xizhou was a little flustered, "It's just not down-to-earth!" ”

"Not steady?" Mu San smiled and shook his head, "The money there is not a good source in the first place, what do you care about this down-to-earth work?" People who lose don't care, what do you care about people who win? ”

"That's not what I said." Chen Xizhou was busy explaining, "Actually, I don't need so much money, why do I want it?" ”

"Money, there is always a time when it is useful, you have to be so entangled here, it is better to think about how it can be used." Kisan continued to pick up the wine and take two sips.

Chen Xizhou looked at him, although his raunchy appearance made people feel a little uncomfortable, but he didn't feel sloppy. It was as if he was dressed like this on purpose, just to make himself comfortable.

"Is this a trap?" Chen Xizhou had to ask more questions about his uneasiness.

"Trap?" Kizo put down the cup and laughed, "Why do you think that?" ”

"Then why did you choose me?" Chen Xizhou looked at him, wanting to see if there was cunning hidden behind his hippie smile.

"Pick you?" Mu San crooked his mouth and smiled, "No one chooses anyone, it's all doomed." ”

"What do you mean?" Chen Xizhou was even more puzzled.

"Did you see the bell?" Kizo suddenly pointed to the bell above the bathroom and asked.

Chen Xizhou followed his finger and saw the clock.

"What time is it?"

“…… It's almost eleven o'clock......" Chen Xizhou replied.

"So, is it eleven o'clock at noon, or eleven o'clock in the middle of the night?"

"What?" Chen Xizhou was stunned, "Of course it's eleven o'clock at noon!" ”

"How can you be so sure?"

"Of course I'm sure, I just went to work, and I'll come over after the meeting, of course it's noon!" Chen Xizhou felt that his question was very strange.

"Really?" Mu San's tone didn't seem to believe it, "Look here, it's pitch black, it's always pitch black, there is no sunrise and sunset to remind people of natural time, as long as you stay here, you can't feel the time." ”

Chen Xizhou went from strange to inexplicable, why did he tell him this.

"Look at the people on the couch, if they wake up, they will continue to have a drink, thinking that the night show is going to go on again, and then they can fall down and continue sleeping at any time, as long as they don't leave here, time is meaningless to them."

"What are you telling me all this for?"

"Didn't do anything." Mu San took a sip casually, "I just want to express a meaning, you feel that this money is superfluous to you now, how do you know if you will need such a sum of money urgently in the future?" ”

Although Chen Xizhou's brain was a little messy, he didn't drink, so he was sober: "How do I know what the future holds, I only look at the present." ”

"Hmm." Mu San nodded, "Many people are like you, they only look at the present, so they hope to have a drink in the future and forget about the recklessness and stubbornness of the past." Mu San took a wine glass from the bar and poured a glass for Chen Xizhou.

"I don't need to." Chen Xizhou refused.

"It's okay, a drink in the morning can wake you up."

Chen Xizhou could only watch him pour the glass of wine to his own heart.

"Do you know how much time it takes to pour a full glass of wine?"

Such a nonsensical question, Chen Xizhou would not pay attention to it at all: "How do I know?" I didn't even care. ”

"That's right." Mu San talked nonsense seriously, "Often it is these small hours, we don't pay special attention to it, so it slips away invisibly." Maybe we're pouring wine for a few seconds, and maybe a few seconds in another world is in the outside world, where a car passes by, and a few seconds can cause a car crash. ”

Chen Xizhou looked at him, as if he was joking with him, but there was no fake intention in his eyes.

"A car accident for a second, some people are ...... for a lifetime"

"What does it matter?"

"It doesn't matter." Mu San smiled, picked up his wine glass and touched the glass with him, when the glasses touched, there was a crisp touch sound, which was particularly pleasant, "I just want to say that in a few casual seconds, something uncontrollable may happen." ”

"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with this glass of wine or the problem we're talking about, right?" Chen Xizhou looked at him and wanted to tell him with his serious expression that he didn't have time to listen to his nonsense.

"Okay, just when I'm drunk and talking nonsense with you." Kizo continued to touch his glass, then took a sip of his own wine.

It was already the second time to clink glasses, and Chen Xizhou was suddenly embarrassed, so he had to pick up the wine glass, take a sip, and prepare to be perfunctory.

"You see, a few minutes ago, you told me firmly that you don't need to drink, so why did you change your mind first?" Kizo laughed.

Chen Xizhou hesitated for a moment, and was a little inexplicably angry: "Isn't this because of you?" ”

"Haha. I can't rely on this, I just poured the wine, and you drank it yourself. ”

Chen Xizhou felt that the person in front of him was really a little unreasonable, but he didn't want to quibble, there seemed to be nothing to quibble with him, he would bring himself into his mind and revolve around him, maybe this guy would be hypnotic or something, and deliberately brought him into his thinking circle.

"So, you don't have to be in a hurry to say, you don't want money, maybe in the near future, you need such a sum of money urgently?"

"What do you mean?" Chen Xizhou frowned, and the topic went back to the same place.

"Okay, let's stop talking." Mu San stretched and pretended to be tired.

As soon as Chen Xizhou picked up the wine glass, he realized that he was about to enter the circle of his design again, and quickly put down the wine glass: "I'm leaving." ”

"Okay." Mu San didn't mean to keep him, but just said to himself, "It's just that there is no game to play today, and it's quite boring." ”

Chen Xizhou just wanted to leave here, but when he heard his words, he grabbed his nerves again: "What? ”

"What?"

"How do you know there's no game today?" Chen Xizhou stared at him.

"Really, not?" Mu San began to pretend to be confused again.

"Yes." Chen Xizhou's gaze stared at him deadly, "This is something that was announced this morning, how did you know?" ”

"Oh!" Mu San made a look of sudden realization, "I guess! ”

"Guess?"

"There was a problem with the game yesterday.,It's going to be taken off the shelves today for a break.,It's normal to guess that, right?" Mu San looked at him with a grin, "So, we have time to have a drink here?" Mu San touched Chen Xizhou's cup again, and there was another crisp "ding" sound.

Chen Xizhou's ghost almost picked up the cup again, but fortunately he found it and put it down decisively.

Mu San saw it in his eyes and laughed secretly.

"I can't talk to you anymore, I feel like I'm going to fall into your trap." Chen Xizhou touched his forehead, trying to sober himself up.

"Well, the door is behind you, ready to go." Kisan made a "please" gesture.

Chen Xizhou turned around and was about to leave, but several drunk men on the sofa next to him turned over lazily, and did not look like they wanted to wake up. Just as he opened the door, the bright light outside the door contrasted sharply with the darkness inside the room, and the burst of light stimulated his facial features, as if forming a hallucination, just in front of him, a black sedan sped by, making a screeching brake sound, and after a "bump", everything came to an abrupt halt......

Chen Xizhou's eyes couldn't be opened because of the strong light, he squinted hard, shook his head, and after his vision gradually recovered, there was only a normal and comfortable street in front of him......
