Chapter 4 Resignation
"Ding", the elevator arrived, the elevator door opened, and I saw the middle-aged man from yesterday again. He was still wearing yesterday's suit and bow tie, and his wrists were showing a little, revealing dark and brown spots on his skin.
He noticed my gaze, pulled down his sleeves again quietly, and said, "If you don't want to regret it, don't get on this elevator, otherwise you won't be able to walk if you want to." ”
Yesterday he said that, and my heart moved, maybe he knew something?
After entering the elevator and soon reaching the seventeenth floor, I quickly asked, "What the hell is going on with this company, and what do you know?" ”
He gave me a deep look, looked up again, and didn't speak.
I followed his line of sight and saw a surveillance camera, right between me and him. At this moment, the lights in the elevator suddenly went out, and it was dark in front of me.
In the darkness, I heard the sound of a rope, and the figure in front of me raised his hand on his head, and in my horrified gaze, he actually took his head off, and then fell to the ground with a thud.
My head buzzed, and no matter how hard I tried to calm down, I couldn't calm down. I slammed at the elevator door, banging hard, and kept pressing the only button on the seventeenth floor.
"Ding!" The elevator doors opened, the light shone in, and I hurried out, never for a moment so fond of the company's miserable white incandescent lamps.
Turning my head, the elevator door slowly closed, and the middle-aged man stood at the elevator door, staring at me with a gloomy face.
I gasped for air, I don't know if it was a delusion or if it really happened, if it was, could he take his head off his body, or was it human?
"Wang Lin, you're late." The manager walked up behind me, his tall figure blocking the light, looking at me condescendingly.
I took a deep breath and calmed down the mood I had just had, but my heart was still pounding uncontrollably, and I said apologetically and straightforwardly: "I'm sorry, I'm here to resign today." ”
"Resign, are you sure?" There was a hint of meaning in the manager's tone, and I couldn't make out what it meant.
"Wang Lin, you must know that there are many people who want to join our company, and your grades are excellent, is it a pity to give up like this?" The strange expression on the manager's face flashed away, and he turned bitter and tried to persuade me.
I said firmly, "Manager, I'm sure I'm going to resign!" ”
"Well, since you're so determined, I'm not going to keep you. But your work for today has been assigned, if you can, you can do me a favor and complete the task, and I will settle the two days' wages for you. ”
I thought about it, I was leaving anyway, and it didn't matter if I stayed for another day. It doesn't matter if the salary is paid, but the manager said so, and I can't just leave.
"Okay." I promised to come down.
I don't know if it's my delusion, or because of the incandescent lamp, a weird smile appeared on the manager's pale face.
When they arrived at the office, the other three people were already seated in their seats, immersed in their work, and did not lift their heads for a moment.
I took a deep breath and turned my head to look at the potted plant in the corner, the shadow was refracted on the wall, it really looked like the shadow of a person, and the dream of last night came to me uncontrollably.
I shook my head, took these things out of my mind, concentrated on my work, and left before it was too late, I didn't want to stay here for a moment.
Maybe I was too focused, or maybe I was in a hurry to leave, and the work was done quickly, and when I looked up, it was just after two o'clock in the afternoon.
My stomach was already rumbling with hunger, and it was only then that I realized that the company was unreasonable, they didn't have time to eat.
The people in the office area are like robots, with a posture of not going to eat until they finish their work, their heads are not raised, and their hands are always tapping on the keyboard.
I withdrew my gaze, saved the papers, and prepared to go to the manager's office to resign, as long as I left it, it had nothing to do with me.
As soon as I walked out of the office, I saw a young man who looked about my age walking towards me, he was slightly stunned, and there was a surprised expression on his face.
Then his lips moved slightly, and he didn't hear what he said clearly, so he gave me a look and regained his expression. Then he pretended to hit me on the shoulder, brushed past me, and shoved something into my hand.
I know this person, and he is also the only person in the company who has spoken to me, his name is Sun Guming, I don't know what he just meant.
I didn't want to make a fuss, so I put what he had given me in the right pocket of my pants and walked towards the manager's office.
Reached out and knocked on the door, but no one answered, and knocked three more times, but there was still no one.
Gently pushing the door open, the manager's office was quiet, and a cold wind blew in his face, and his body couldn't help but shiver. The manager's office was windowless and dim, as if shrouded in a black veil that made it impossible to see clearly.
There was only a desk and chair inside, and there were many papers piled up on the table, and a dark figure sat on the chair, which I couldn't see clearly from a distance.
"Manager?" I shouted in confusion.
The black shadow remained motionless and did not respond.
I pushed the door open and walked in, but the door creaked shut, and the dark shadow was gone, and the boss's chair was empty.
I just saw someone?
The manager wasn't there, and I was ready to go out, with the doorknob in hand......
"Huh?" I was stunned, but the door didn't move.
I tried harder, but I couldn't open the door, and the office became colder and colder, and the air I exhaled turned to white mist.
The temperature in the office was getting colder and colder, and I felt like goosebumps were getting up, and my muscles were shaking.
"Help, anyone?" I slammed the door hard, the temperature still dropping, and the walls were covered with frost.
The foggy feeling was even worse, and it seemed to be covered by a black veil in front of me, and no matter how hard I stared, I couldn't see clearly.
I turned my head unintentionally, and in the darkness I saw the black shadow sitting in the boss's chair again, tall, but only the head was empty.
"I'm Cao!" I couldn't help but say a dirty word, my scalp tingled, and then I saw that the black shadow had already stood up.
My eyes widened, but I couldn't take the foggy feeling lightly, and I could only see black shadows walking around the desk towards me, and the sound of footsteps echoing in the office clearly.
"Open the door!" I slammed the door harder, my teeth were shivering from the cold, my body kept shaking, I couldn't control it at all, half scared, half cold.
The headless figure finally walked in front of me, very similar to the figure of the manager, the strong body blocked me in the doorway, and I couldn't enter or retreat.
I swallowed hard and frothed, pretending to be calm, but the tremor in my voice betrayed me: "You...... Who are you? ”
