In the middle of the night.

Li Changan came to the Kexing electronic processing factory on Yuqiao Road.

It is said that it is an electronic processing factory, but it is actually more like a small workshop, the scale is not large, and the factory looks a little old.

Although it was already night, when he looked into the factory, the lights were still bright, and the sound of mechanical gears turning had not stopped.

That is, there are no residential buildings around, and it belongs to the factory area, otherwise the complaint is estimated to be enough for them to drink a pot.

"Mr. Li Chang'an?" A voice came from the side of the factory.

"Hello. Client: Mr. Zhou Yingpeng? ”

Following the voice, Li Changan saw a young man wearing a pair of glasses, looking like a gentleman and a very hearty personality.

"I'm sorry to let you go so late."

Zhou Yingpeng said with some apologies.

"Within duty."

Li Changan waved his hand, and then said, "Please tell me about the general situation." ”

"Okay."

Zhou Yingpeng pushed his glasses, pursed his lips and muttered slightly for a moment, and then said:

"The owner of this factory is named Zhou Hai, who is also my father. The factory mainly makes parts for some electronic equipment, mainly mobile phone parts. ”

Father?

Li Changan glanced at Zhou Yingpeng with a little surprise.

Zhou Yingpeng, who felt his gaze, smiled a little embarrassedly, "My father is aware of this matter, and he has permission to call Mr. You came." ”

"You go on." Li Changan smiled gently.

Zhou Yingpeng breathed a sigh of relief and continued:

"The passage of the 'Science and Technology Act' some time ago, I guess you know, sir, right? This bill is to make high-tech equipment affordable for many ordinary people, but it also suffers from the factories and manufacturers involved in the production of equipment. ”

The price reduction of electronic equipment such as mobile phones and computers will inevitably cause the industry depression of the entire electronic equipment manufacturer.

Layoffs and salary cuts are also inevitable.

Otherwise, this bill, which has already been proposed a long time ago, would not have been passed until now.

"As far as I know, the kingdom has given a certain amount of subsidies and support."

"Yes. But you can't let everyone live on this subsidy and support, right? ”

That's true.

This time, the "Science and Technology Act" was promulgated, and I don't know how many people will lose their jobs.

Although the kingdom also arranged a lot of jobs for infrastructure construction such as road construction and bridge construction.

No matter how you say it, it is all physical work that is exposed to the sun, and it is definitely not as comfortable as the previous technical work.

In addition, the salary is also inferior.

"My father was originally a small parts processing factory, and it was even more difficult to survive in such conditions, and his hair fell out a lot in just a few days. In the end, in order to survive, my father lowered the price to the buyer. ”

Zhou Yingpeng's expression became a little unnatural.

Li Changan glanced at him deeply, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said tentatively:

"And in order to make up for the price difference in this area, the salaries of employees are reduced, and the working hours are increased."

It seems that because Li Changan saw through his inner thoughts, Zhou Yingpeng hurriedly said in a little panic:

"Although, although the salary has been reduced, my father's salary is still much higher than the average salary outside, that is, the working hours are indeed a little longer, which will lead to the problems that arise later."

"How long?" Li Changan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Just, we will be paid according to the hours worked." Zhou Yingpeng lowered his head and said.

“......”

Good guys, Otherworldly Edition 007?

That's not right.

Li Changan quickly discovered that something was wrong.

"According to this statement, even if the workers work hard, their bodies will not be able to bear it."

"That's the crux of the matter!"

Finally getting to the point, Zhou Yingpeng suddenly became a little excited.

"The problem is that those employees really don't know how to be tired!"

"Huh?"

"Some of the employees in the factory have been working for a day and a night, but their bodies are still very strong, and they do not see any fatigue in their operations. At first, my father was happy about this for a while, but gradually he realized that something was wrong, although the workers were very healthy, the dark circles under their eyes were getting heavier and heavier, and their eyes were full of bloodshots. ”

Suddenly.

Li Changan thought of the person he met in the corridor of Professor Yan Fuchun's old mansion during the day.

Isn't it exactly the state that Zhou Yingpeng said?

"Plus, during this time, my dad would always have some weird nightmares at night. He felt that it should be because of guilt in his heart, and he was worried that there would be sudden death of an employee, so he asked you for help. ”

"The friend who recommended me told me that you are an excellent expert in spirit beastology, and you will definitely be able to solve the problem."

He looked at Li Changan expectantly.

“......”

It's been blown over, it's really blown a little, I'm afraid I can't afford it...... Li Changan slandered for a while.

However, in fact, the father and son are not very bad.

After introducing the basic information, Zhou Yingpeng led Li Changan to the factory.

Pushing open the factory gate, the sound of the equipment, which was originally only faintly irritated, came to his face, and the dazzling light of the incandescent lamp also made Li Changan subconsciously squint his eyes.

There was a fiery scene inside the factory.

If it weren't for the fact that it was already dark outside, people who didn't know would probably think it was daytime.

Bang - Bang -

Zhou Yingpeng took Li Changan directly to a middle-aged man who was a little fat, also wearing a pair of glasses, a wide suit, and a delicate brooch pinned to his chest.

His biggest feature should be that his head is smooth and slippery, which looks particularly eye-catching and dazzling under the light of incandescent lamps.

Is this amount of hair a lot of worries?

It's completely gone, right?

"Meow~~" (Wow, what a flash.) ）

Under such a light, even Xiao Phantom, who maintained the "Shadow Escape" skill and hid in the shadows, had to show his figure, and saw that bald head subconsciously blocking his eyes.

"Don't be rude." Li Changan scolded softly.

Little Phantom spat out the cat's tongue.

Under Zhou Yingpeng's introduction, Li Changan and Zhou Hai also exchanged a few words.

Zhou Hai is a person, which gives Li Changan an an obvious feeling of a businessman.

However, his mental state is indeed not very good.

Li Changan quietly turned on the "soul vision".

Zhou Hai's "soul" is similar to the "soul" of the rest of the workers in the factory, and they are all in a state of serious loss.

Even, his losses are more exaggerated than the workers.

It's just that Li Changan didn't expect it.

Most of the rest of the workers' "souls" belong to natural escape, which is the daily consumption of a normal person, that is, their consumption is more.

But Zhou Hai's "soul" actually escaped towards his head, more precisely, along his smooth brain.

Although the amount is not large.

But such a "chic" way of consumption was something he didn't expect.

He looked around again, but didn't see anything unusual, except that his gaze lingered for a moment in the southeast corner of the ceiling, which was the direction in which the "soul" drifted away.

After turning off the "Soul Vision", Li Changan quietly let Xiaodouding perform a "psychic" again.

But to no avail.

Li Changan frowned.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Hai couldn't help but ask when he saw Li Changan's expression.

Let's be honest.

For a young man like Li Changan, he is called an "expert in spirit beasts", and he doesn't trust him very much.

But these days, everyone can be called an expert.

If he hadn't seen the revolver pinned to Li Changan's waist, he would have even thought that Li Changan was a liar.

"Where is the office?" Li Changan didn't answer Zhou Hai's question, just asked.

"Over there."

Zhou Hai pointed to the corner of the factory, which was a small office with the door closed.

"Can I go and see it?"

"Of course. Xiaopeng, you take this ......."

Zhou Hai was just halfway through speaking, but was interrupted by Li Changan: "No need, I'll just go alone." ”

After that, under the puzzled gazes of Zhou Hai and Zhou Yingpeng, they strode into the small office.

There was only a table and a torn leather boss chair, and the table was very messy, and the old computer was covered with dust, but a delicate but quaint teacup was wiped clean.

"That's at least a few hundred, right?"

As soon as this thought arose, he was forcibly pressed down by Li Changan.

I thought about money.

"Little Phantom, Shadow Yan."

He asked Phantom to stand on the table, rubbing its head lightly and said.

"Meow?"

Xiao Phantom looked at him suspiciously.

The "Shadow Yan" skill is not omnipotent, what is this to be derived from?

Li Changan pursed his lips and said again:

"Just look for ...... In this factory, the first person who may have an accident is possible. ”

If you have a goal, you can give it a try.

The next second.

A phantom shadow appeared in Xiao Phantom's eyes, and wisps of black mist slowly appeared on its body.

A moment later.

Xiao Illusion's eyes returned to clarity.

Rubbing his little paws, he seemed to be a little hesitant and unsure.

"Meow ......" (should be...... That light bulb. ）

Bulb?

Li Changan was stunned, and immediately reacted, it was Zhou Hai.

It was about the same as he guessed.

However, the conclusion obtained by the little phantom "Shadow Yan" made him more confident in his guess.

"Come on."

With the little illusion that jumped on his shoulder, he walked out of the office and found Zhou Hai who was instructing the workers to operate again.

"Found the reason?"

Zhou Hai's expression looked a little impatient, and he was also a little lacking in confidence in Li Changan.

"The problem should be ...... Over here. ”

Li Changan said as he stretched out his hand and pressed it against the brooch at the neckline of Zhou Hai's suit.

"Can you take it off and show me?"

"This?"

Zhou Hai was stunned for a moment, glanced at Li Changan suspiciously, and slowly took it off in disbelief.

While handing it to Li Changan, he said: "It's just a brooch.......

As soon as he started, Li Changan knew that he had guessed correctly!

Under the "soul vision", the escape speed of Zhou Hai's "soul" really slowed down.

Most importantly, the "soul" no longer escaped from the top of his bare head.

Li Changan looked down at the brooch in his palm and said in a low voice:

"Sure enough, it's a spirit master instrument."

The incandescent lamps in the factory are so bright that even Zhou Hai's bald head is as bright as a small sun, but this brooch that looks like a metal structure and has a smooth surface does not reflect the slightest light, which is the crux of the problem.

He had noticed this before, but he was still a little unsure, until Xiao Phantom's "Shadow Yan" gave him confidence.

The brooch in his hand was still warm, as if it was absorbing light.

Abrupt.

Li Changan, who was holding the brooch, raised his eyebrows.

Under the incredulous gaze of Zhou Hai and Zhou Yingpeng and the workers in the factory.

Quickly pulled out the revolver from his waist and pointed it at the southeast corner of the factory ceiling.

Pull the trigger without hesitation.

Bang!!!

In a flash.

Mars in all directions.

The bullets that erupted from the muzzle shot out violently.

Zhou Yingpeng supported Zhou Hai, who almost fell down in a cold sweat, and for a moment, they almost thought that Li Changan pulled out a gun and aimed it at them.

The two of them were even more dumbfounded now, unable to speak.

All the workers in the factory were so frightened that they almost ran away.

But seeing Li Changan smashing his mouth, he was a little embarrassed, and said as if talking to himself and sighing:

"Ah, it's crooked."

“......”
