Chapter 50: The "Masquerade" Meeting
Sun Meiyuan's company is a catering franchise company, which has several departments, including personnel department, sales department, R&D department, after-sales service department, management and operation department, design department and so on.
The total number of employees in the company is more than 500, and although it is still far from becoming a large company, it is still a small scale.
500 people say it's not much, but if you really want to convert it into identity information and print it on A4 paper, then it looks like a lot. When Sun Meiyuan put a thick pile of employee identity information into Xiao Mo's hand, Xiao Mo only felt that his hand was sinking.
Trying to find a suspect among these people is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and trying to find out is almost a dream. But then again, Xiao Mo wouldn't be so stupid, his idea was to start with Sun Meiyuan being targeted by ghosts, to see if he could find out with this, or analyze the rules for ghosts to select killing targets.
Putting down the thick stack of papers, Xiao Mo loosened the collar of his shirt, and then asked Sun Meiyuan again:
"Do you recall carefully, do you have any intersection with the three people who disappeared before?"
"We are all colleagues, and if we want to say that the intersection is at work, there is no contact in private."
After some enlightenment by Wen Qiayun, Sun Meiyuan regained her previous spirit, and she replied with certainty after thinking about it.
Xiao Mo was not satisfied with Sun Meiyuan's answer, he shook his head and said:
"I just told you that the murderer's (ghost's) choice of target is not unfounded, and that it was your colleagues who died, not anyone else, which is even more revealing."
Xiao Mo looked at Sun Meiyuan with a grim expression, and said word by word:
"There must be something in common between you. And this common denominator is the reason why the "murderer" has found you! ”
"But we're just colleagues in the company, and we really don't have anything in common." Sun Meiyuan racked her brains and thought about it carefully. But I still didn't think of anything.
At this time, Wen Qiayun, who was sitting next to Xiao Mo, gently pushed him. Xiao Mo turned his head and glanced at Wen Qiayun, and then heard Wen Qiayun whisper to him:
"If there is really a common denominator, then we shouldn't continue to meddle in the affairs here."
Hearing this, Xiao Mo smiled, and then asked knowingly:
"Why?"
"Because we are also people who are hunted down by ghosts, but we are not employees of this company, if there is one thing in common, it doesn't mean that we are coming to this company now and contacting the employees of this company. It's tantamount to setting yourself on fire and throwing yourself into the net. ”
"So you mean, let's find a place and spend a few days? Well...... That's a really good idea. ”
"Do you already know something?" Wen Qiayun glanced at Xiao Mo, and then asked curiously.
"In fact, I don't know anything." Xiao Mo spread his hands helplessly, but said one of his mentions:
"We now know that there are two possibilities. One is that the company, and the disappearance of its employees, is itself a trap for us. The other is that we are actually able to get from this company. and the victimized employees in the company to obtain key clues. ”
Hearing Xiao Mo say this, Wen Qiayun already understood what he meant:
"You're trying to split up?"
"There's no need for everyone to risk together, I'm not capable after all, even if they all follow me, I can't protect everyone."
Xiao Mo kept his voice very low. But Chen Cheng and the little follower are not ordinary people, so they can also hear it clearly.
"Why did you talk about this all of a sudden?" Wen Qiayun didn't know what Xiao Mo thought, why did he say this.
"Not what you think. I just think that doing this will make the danger a little lesser, after all, Li Sixuan and Mu Sheng don't have props to defend themselves. And they're newcomers with little experience. Therefore, there is no need for risk like this, and it can be less or less. ”
"I see what you mean. You think that the probability of newcomers dying is higher than ours, so you want to keep them behind as much as possible, right? ”
"Well, of course, I'll ask for their opinions, and if they still want to follow me, I don't have any opinions."
Seeing that Xiao Mo and Wen Qiayun were talking to each other and didn't know what they were talking about, Sun Meiyuan stared at the two with some concern, thinking that the two were talking about her.
However, Xiao Mo and Wen Qiayun's whispering did not last long, and soon Xiao Mo returned his attention to Sun Meiyuan, and listened to her ask again:
"Think about it, have you ever had a party in your company, or a talk, or any other event that involves the supernatural? Hmmm......"
After thinking about it, Xiao Mo added:
"For example, watching horror movies together, or listening to ghost stories, are these?"
Hearing Xiao Mo talk about this, Sun Meiyuan's face couldn't help but show a little abruptness, and she said:
"Yes, yes, I remembered. There was indeed a meeting the other day, and it was a few of us involved. ”
Because she felt that the matter she remembered was very important, Sun Meiyuan also stood up directly from her seat:
"Five days ago, a few of us had a company event together."
Sun Meiyuan's words attracted everyone's attention, including the little follower who was bored and playing with his mobile phone. Don't look at the little attendant who can't speak, but typing on a mobile phone is quite powerful, and no one on the bus can beat her.
She and Chen Cheng are strange people on the bus except for Li Shuai, because they don't care about the progress of the incident at all. Although Li Shuai didn't think about it when he was there, he would also care about the progress of the incident, but Chen Cheng and the little followers didn't care at all, they just focused on listening when Xiao Mo or the victim talked about the key place.
Seeing that everyone was waiting for their next words, Sun Meiyuan no longer procrastinated and said directly:
"Because it's almost Halloween, the company wants to hold an event with this theme, just like those companies abroad, to have a masquerade ball, or a masquerade party, etc., to enhance the relationship between the company's colleagues."
"Isn't the atmosphere in the company bad? Need this kind of activity to strengthen your colleagues? Li Sixuan has also worked in reality, so he still knows a little about the company's situation.
"The atmosphere is not very good, because the company is developing rapidly, so the departmental disputes and the contradictions within the departments are also increasing. This phenomenon is not only in which company, but also feels that their efforts are not proportional to their income. It's just that in a fast-growing company, it's just amplified.
As for the "masked" party, it is not deliberately trying to make it supernatural, but mainly close to Halloween, a Western holiday. (To be continued......)
