Today's mission is to contain the monster and investigate the authenticity first.

Newcomers can't be recruited for a while, so they can only give priority to training their employees.

The last time the task of rescuing Kotaro was too easy, and he couldn't try Rama's ability, this time Li Pan took the new one with him, let Rama go to investigate, and sat in the floating car to touch the fish, cough cough, and provide support.

"Boss, I found it."

“…… So fast? ”

As a result, Li Pan squinted for less than half an hour, and Rama came back with a vase.

"Well, that's it, it's the same as in the photo, you see, the pocket watch is also turning."

Li Pan picked up the vase in Rama's hand and looked at it, the blue and white porcelain was dirty, and he couldn't see that it was 'strange' at all.

I compared the file of the company's mission, and it was indeed this bottle.

Although the QVN and security systems have returned, the chaos of 0791 has only just begun, and the Hashiba Group is fighting fiercely with other forces for the legacy of Takamagahara. A lot of treasured antiques that originally belonged to the chaebols under Gao Tianyuan have also appeared on the streets, and it is obvious that the struggle has become white-hot, and everyone is cashing in to raise funds to increase their 'combat effectiveness'.

And the company swiped this monster suspected of having 'failed purchase' on a grocery store website, so it routinely assigned an investigation task first.

But I thought it was just a similar imitation, but it's real? And......

"Rama, how did you get it? Paid for? ”

Rama also confessed, "I saw that there was no one in the grocery store, and Eighteen said that there was no surveillance nearby, so I took it out." ”

“……”

Is that okay?

Biomonitoring of the chip showed that Rama was fine, as if the vase had no effect on him at all. In fact, Li Pan held it in his hand, and he didn't think there was anything weird about this vase.

Could it be that monster containment is actually a very simple activity? What the hell was the 'procurement failure' before?

When it comes to monsters, Li Pan is still quite cautious.

He asked Rama to watch the vase stand by in the car, and when there was a rush, he went back to the office first, and he also went to the grocery store of the target of the mission.

This is a small shop for self-employed people, with people living upstairs and downstairs opening shops, selling some bits and pieces of small commodities, all of which are civilian goods of primary and secondary technology. The streets were deserted, and no one was passing by.

And there was actually an old man in the store, hiding in the corner, Li Pan glanced at him, probably understood the reason why Rama said 'there is no one in the store'.

He couldn't see.

The old man in the corner is somewhat similar to the woman in red in the 'hairband', but it is much weaker, so weak that Li Pan estimates that he can swallow the other party into his stomach and refine it when he takes a breath.

"Hey, boss, buy something."

Raising his hand and shaking it in front of the old man's eyes, the other party did not react, and his eyes were glazed staring at the door.

Li Pan couldn't see that he couldn't ask anything, so he dodged and went upstairs directly, casually opened the security door on the second floor, and broke into the house.

A foul smell came to the nostrils, and sure enough, the old man was dead, and everyone was sparsely smashed, and he died on the tatami mats, and the bed quilt was already a sticky humanoid gelatinous substance, yellow, green, lumpy, gelatinous pus, like mung bean pork ribs porridge.

Li Pan walked into the house, took Eighteen in and searched the local laptop, and flipped through the photos of the clothes and supplies in the cabinet, and probably checked it clearly.

The old man's name is Tamura Hiroshi, he was an MM when he was young, ahem, the Mars Marine Corps, similar to the Starship Army, is a new branch of the military in this era, a specialized space combat force, because they are usually stationed on Mars and trained, and are responsible for planetary assault missions.

This unit selects elites from planetary armies and undergoes tactical training in various gravity environments to form a rapid reaction force. The discovery of habitable planets in space exploration, and the first people to be dropped to remove pests and insects were these people.

And most of the elite veterans in the border star domain also have the service history of this unit, after all, they have to be repeatedly screened from the elite in order to carefully select the real king of soldiers.

Of course, Tamura has not yet reached the point of being the king of soldiers, and after retiring from the army, he worked in a security company and was assigned a driver assigned to the company's cadres to drive bodyguards. Looking at the medical records, he was seriously injured in an operation, couldn't afford the operation fee, couldn't continue to work and was dismissed, his wife ran away with his lover, and his children didn't pay attention to him, so he opened a small shop, collected rags, and worked odd jobs to make a living, and the last person died alone in this ancestral house.

As for the vase, there is no more detailed record, the old man Tamura works part-time to pick up rags to make a living, the company will occasionally ask him to collect old goods from the warehouse, read the correspondence mail, some old comrades-in-arms have passed away, and will also send him some inheritance, which is the source of his grocery store.

Vases and these things,It's also Tamura who took a photo.,Upload it to his grocery store website for sale from time to time.,Look at the upload time for more than half a year.,Maybe it's only recently screened by the company's intelligence department.。

Li Pan turned around twice, except for the fact that there was only white smoke left after the death of ordinary people, and the 'soul' of the old man in Tamura could gather into a human form and shrink in the corner, he did not notice other suspicious signs, as for whether it was his own strong willpower, or the side effects caused by long-term contact with the 'vase', it was uncertain.

"Okay, the task is done, let's go back and write the report."

However, Rama actually completed the task so easily, and Li Pan didn't know how to evaluate it, so he went to put the 'vase' in the constant temperature warehouse.

The company's headquarters' climate-controlled warehouse, also known as the 'Yellow Zone', is dedicated to the storage of monsters that have been temporarily contained, have not yet been identified, and whose performance is unknown, and whose level of danger is unfatal.

Li Pan glanced at the control in the elevator in the yellow area, the structure of the blue, yellow and red warehouse area is almost identical, from the hall to the door is a direct elevator, the floor number button in the elevator is also eight, the bottom is the front desk living room F0, the other seven floors, from F50 to F56.

In the same way, on the side of the red zone, it is F57 to F63, and the only difference is the color of the elevator lights, which is distinguished by blue, yellow and red. If there is a 'monster' on which floor to store, the corresponding elevator button will have a light on, otherwise it is an empty storage space, which can be used to store new products.

The basic policy of warehouse management is basically the same, each monster, corresponding to a separate floor, but the floor of the 'blue zone' basically has no containment measures, that is, an empty office area, put a cabinet chair or something, as long as you make sure that the 'monsters' do not affect each other.

In addition to various containment measures, the 'yellow zone' and 'red zone' are required to 'turn off the lights'.

In other words, these 'monsters' are stored in some kind of extradimensional space.

Presumably, there are various restrictions on the storage method of 'turning off the lights', or there are cost problems, in short, the company generally does not recommend keeping all the monsters in the company headquarters.

Therefore, usually after the technical department determines the safe containment method of the monster, a special external warehouse will be set up to store the numbered items for a long time.

In addition, external warehouses are actually not only on Earth, but also in space, TheM also has asteroid bases in the asteroid belt, vacuum cargo cabins, and fleet warehouses, all of which are used to store 'war backup' monsters. The inventory on the earth can be opened by the general manager at will, and those things need to be reported to the head office.

In short, Li Pan glanced at the yellow area, from F50 to F54 are full, to put it bluntly, they are all messes left over from the previous session, and they have collected things that have not had time to be classified and contained, and when he is free, he will have to test them one by one and then report to the containment.

Alas, the work is never done.

So he put the 'vase' in the yellow area F55, and Li Pan went to the red area F58 to look at the 'bed sheet', and took up the Jiuyin Divine Skill and beat the 'bed sheet'.

Don't say it, this broken sheet is really resistant to beating, Li Pan estimated that he would punch out a Nine Yin Superman, at least ten tons of strength, but he still couldn't break it, but instead used cyan sword qi, condensed at the fingertips, and at the same time transported the Nine Yin Divine Skill, poked out with one finger, you can poke a hole in the sheet, although it will be restored in a blink of an eye, but it must be broken.

It seems that the monkey swordsmanship also has merits, and it can't just be abandoned and not practiced.

Li Pan didn't eat enough for breakfast, and he didn't want to waste his limited physical strength on this broken sheet, so he practiced his fists and feet, warmed up, and went back to write a daily newspaper to complete the tasks of 'monster containment' and 'monster test'.

For the task of successfully containing the monster, the company is quite generous, and directly gives Li Pan and Rama who participated in the mission, a silver key for each person, and it is worth two thousand five hundred yuan to complete a task a day.

So Li Pan let Rama move freely, this kid has been locked in a cage, he hasn't gone to school seriously, he doesn't even know maggots, and now he relies on the educational videos downloaded from the deep web by eighteen to learn by himself.

Then he discussed with Ah Qi about continuing to recruit new people.

"Why, the beautiful leg OL who came to the interview that day refused? It's a pity, I don't think these majors are easy to fool, or engineers, prosthetic doctors, finance or accounting majors are preferred. ”

"But these occupations are all popular industries, elite white-collar workers, and the daily salary is probably more than two and a half thousand, so it may be difficult to convince them......"

"I know, but we still have to rebuild the technical department as soon as possible, and we need a good hand to make extra money.

At this time, it should be just right to recruit talents, and now that Gao Tianyuan dog bites the dog and breaks his head, there must be many people involved in the office and standing in line, and the company dog who was fired is cornered, and he doesn't dare to beat his heart hard, maybe he will beg us to save his life.

Anyway, they're not a good thing, and they don't feel distressed when they really use it, killing two birds with one stone, and win-win for each other. ”

"Okay boss, I'll discuss it with Miss Eighteen and try to recruit on the internal forum of Takamagahara."

Alas, there is no way, a few resumes given by the personnel department, in fact, Ah Qi has also contacted these days, but only Kotaro is desperate to apply, and others who come to the interview talked about it well at the beginning, and when they heard that the monthly salary was two thousand and a half for three years, they directly declined.

In fact, after these monsters came into contact, Li Pan also saw through the consideration of the monster company, because of their business content, to contain monsters, it is really impossible to hire so many high-quality talents.

To put it bluntly, you learned that little bit of knowledge in school, pretended to be that little prosthetic, and you came to be funny in front of these monsters, so either like Li Pan, talented, or like Rama, good luck. The other parameters are really useless.

And 2,500 yuan, not too much, too little, really want Li Pan to be ruthless, go directly to the slum area to pull people one by one, send them to the warehouse to try them one by one, and delete the files as soon as they get out of control. As long as there is enough investment in human resources, what monster attributes can't be measured.

As for the backbone of the organization that is really used to maintain the company's operations, as well as the support staff of the technical department, most of them are still waiting for the school to recruit elite graduates with clean backgrounds and recruit those elite graduates with clean backgrounds.

Of course, such regular employees don't have to go to the front line, and the dirty work is done by temporary workers, and they just drink coffee and make reports in the office, which is what the big companies in the heavenly plane do.

Write a report like this, take inventory, and spend a daily working day that seems to have done a lot of things, but it seems that nothing has been done, and when it is about to clock out and get out of work, the phone rings.

"Constant temperature warehouse containment out of control alarm!"

Well? No, he turned off the lights?

So Li Pan immediately set off, Ah Qi and Spider, who were beating the sheets, were fully armed, and entered the yellow area F55 and turned on the light.

Fortunately, there were no bloody explosions.

But the 'vase' in the house became two.

Li Pan turned off the alarm and frowned at the two identical vases on the table.

Then he turned the light off and back on.

Well, the vase has become four.

After identifying with a pocket watch, each vase has a reaction, but it is just an ordinary blue and white porcelain vase in your hand.

“…… What do you think? ”

Ah Qi typing broadcast,

"This monster seems to have some sort of self-replicating mechanism, and if we don't find a way to limit containment, we could be in big trouble."

Isn't it, if this thing is replicated exponentially without limits, it will probably be a disaster that will destroy the world. But after sitting in the grocery store for so long, there is no reaction, huh?

"Hmm...... Maybe it's the result of 'turning off the lights'......

In this way, Eighteen will check the situation of the old man Tamura, who he was the driver for before, what social networks he had, and try to see if he can find out the whereabouts of the vase before.

Save the stuff in the office first, use spider monitoring, leave it alone like a grocery store, see if there is any reaction, you guys work hard tonight, and if this thing starts to copy, let me know immediately. ”

"Okay boss."

So Li Pan got off work.

Otherwise, it is impossible to work overtime, and it is impossible to work overtime for the destruction of the world.

But it's okay to have a side hustle.

Li Pan took the subway all the way to the old capital area, found a ramen restaurant according to the coordinates and route map sent by Kotaro, and went around to the back alley to drill into the sewer. Walk along the evacuation tunnel to a huge bomb shelter, which is the famous information center of the New Tokyo Underground City, the 'Samsara Bar'.

'Reincarnation' is not an asset of the Dongcheng Alliance, the boss behind the scenes is a person from another world, in the Takamagahara-era he was a neutral intelligence monger, and the local chaebol gangs also gave him face, and all kinds of middlemen, mercenaries, spies, and spies would trade here, and in the era of the Night Capital, the tradition of this neutral zone also continued.

However, unlike the "Peace Hotel" that advocates peace, "Samsara" is happy to send guests to reincarnation, after all, most of the guests here are rotten, and the vicious scum is still more convenient to do directly, of course, life and death are at your own risk, and you have to pay sky-high compensation for breaking things.

A new face like Li Pan was naturally targeted before he walked into the main entrance, and there were two people who came up, one pulled out a gun and the other held a knife, and they came up to greet each other, and they didn't know whether it was a robbery or a waist cut, and passers-by, including bar bodyguards, were watching the play.

Fortunately, Li Pan reacted very quickly, seeing that their eyes were not right, without waiting for the other party to open his mouth to read the lines, his body shook, his feet shook, he shook the front of the gun, flashed to the back of the other party, reached out and pressed his face around, twisted his neck into a twist, broke his head into an obtuse angle, and threw it to the ground.

Then he stepped forward again, shrunk the ground and moved forward, jumped in front of the knifeman who was standing in place, twisted the opponent's wrist, stabbed the knife into his stomach with his backhand, raised his hand and lifted him from the abdomen to the chest, and made an inch of fist, and tore a big hole in the knife with a punch, and pulled out his heart.

The onlookers who were hiding in the shadows to watch the play were also in a groove for a while, never expected this newcomer to come up and make such a hot hand, they swallowed their saliva, and immediately turned their heads around, pretending to be studying the of the sewer.

And the bodyguards at the door of 'reincarnation' also hurriedly moved a step away and let the entrance of the gate open to Li Pan, saving them from being torn apart by this madman's hand.

I have to say that violence is the best pass, and some people don't dare to BB if you slap him.

The air-raid shelter where the 'reincarnation' bar is located was formerly the division headquarters of the New Tokyo Defense Force, with more than a dozen floors, various forks and branches of the air-raid shelter, and the security level of different entrances is also different.

As for the various amusement facilities inside, there are naturally more, there are heavy metal dance floors, there are also petty bourgeois bars, and even various shops, hotels, black markets, exchanges, auction houses, and of course, there are also service facilities such as maiko dolls, in short, as the most famous dungeon in the night capital, any service can be provided.

It's a pity that Li Pan only has 5 yuan and 3 mao 2 on his body, otherwise he would have to walk around and see the market once he comes.

But people are poor and poor well, and they can't afford to spend anyway, so now he has a clear heart, and he doesn't squint all the way to find the private room booked by Kotaro.

Kotaro hasn't arrived yet, but the little young master of the Demon Sealing Family is indeed quite polite, he has already paid for the drinks out of his own pocket, and the bikini intelligent maid has sent a fruit bowl and a cola bucket.

Li Pan was not polite, he directly emptied the fruit plate first, ate all the melon seeds and mints, and drank half of the cola bucket in the Zaba Zaba, Kotaro finally arrived......

"You, who?"

"Manager, it's me, Kotaro,"

The woman with heavy makeup and long blonde hair, wearing false pupils and a miniskirt, like a nightclub princess, said embarrassedly,

"Don't you recognize it, it looks like my disguise hasn't regressed yet."

Li Pan almost vomited all the wine in his stomach,

"Holy! What kind of prosthetic body are you okay with!? ”

Kotaro said solemnly,

"Manager, I didn't change my prosthetic body, this is the Demon Sealing Flow Transfiguration Technique, a necessary disguise for secret operations!

By the way, don't call me Kotaro now, this identity is inconvenient, call me Annie. ”

As soon as he heard that he hadn't changed yet, Li Pan trembled even more disgusted,

"Damn! It's better to make a full set than half of it! What are you doing! You tell me directly where Shura will be, won't we be done if we kill it! ”

Annie. Kotaro explained helplessly,

"There's no way, I've inquired, the clubhouse of the Shura Society is more tasteful, often playing with dead people, only entertaining regular customers, and introducing people to lead the way.

However, I heard that the Shura Society sometimes finds some warblers to make up the numbers, and although they have a bad reputation and often have women missing, they still have people who go with generous prices.

So I'm going to take this opportunity to sneak in, the tracker I've swallowed into my body, it's the tracker.

Boss, don't worry, this time I will be ashamed and successfully infiltrate! ”

Li Pan couldn't help but be shocked by his determination,

"Demon Sealing Annie, you can actually do this for the sake of the team! Okay, you can go with confidence! ”
