Qi Ji thought about it, maybe... It won't take that long at all.

The fire burned for most of the night, and the horizon in the east finally showed a faint light.

The strange smell of roasting persists, perhaps because of the smell of the same kind of burning, which discouraged the monsters, and there were no monsters in the 1079 dormitory lit by the firelight all night.

The monster's charred bones lay in a twisted position in the stove, and when the flesh was burned, it was vaguely recognizable as a human skeleton.

Qi Yan opened all the windows to ventilate and diffuse, and the pale blue sky light of dawn flowed into the room, diluting the strong smell of burning.

"Big guy, these ...... What to do? Qin Rang pointed to the unburned skeleton in the stove, and looked at the rose fry in the bathtub that was still struggling and jumping.

Qi Yan thought for a while: "Keep it as it is, maybe it can come in handy." ”

He remembers that the factory used radio yesterday to search for missing "employees".

When the heat of the furnace fire dissipated, Qi Zhen covered the charred bones in the stove with a quilt.

*

Everyone's intercom rang, and it was a message from Mr. Lorde.

"Morning everyone, congratulations on the fourth morning of the factory, I have an important message to synchronize with you," the communicator was silent for two seconds, "From today onwards, I am going to turn on vacation mode, and I can't be in charge of your guidance work for the time being, and my work will be entrusted to employee No. 7." ”

Hearing this news, Qin Rang, who had witnessed the transaction between Qi Yan and Miss Rossetti, naturally had no reaction, but the two ladies who were completely unaware of the development of the matter were shocked and exclaimed: ", how did you do this?!" ”

Qi Yan smiled gently and harmlessly: "Maybe it's just that Mr. Lord wants to take an annual leave, and I'll help him take care of the work temporarily." ”

Ji Xiaoye raised his eyebrows and looked at him fixedly for a few seconds: "So, our deal is reached?" ”

Qi Zhen nodded: "The two of you don't have to worry about the last punishment system anymore, because I won't follow Mr. Lord's management style." ”

Now he is the person in charge, and the division of labor and system in the workshop is naturally up to him.

"Huh," stunned for half a second, Ji Xiaoye laughed, "It's really yours." ”

She happily returned the 75 coins to Qi Jiu, "Happy cooperation." ”

"Happy cooperation," Qi Yan said, but he didn't immediately accept the 75 coins he had bet on Ji Xiaoye, "But our cooperation is not over yet, wait for the copy to return me." ”

Ji Xiaoye was stunned for a moment and smiled: "No problem." ”

Qi Jiu's communicator rang again, and Mr. Lord sent Qi Jiu a one-person call invitation: "If you are free now, come to my office, and we will hand over the work." ”

"Okay, I'll do it." Qi Zhen replied.

Miss Rossetti had reminded her last night that with Mr. Lorde's powers came with the responsibility of being a supervisor, and he believed that supervisors were not so easy to do.

On the way to Mr. Lorde's office, Qi Zhen noticed a new reward notice posted on the billboard of the office building:

[Reward announcement: The day before yesterday, there was an employee missing in the 1606 dormitory of my factory, due to the special urgency of the situation, if you have any clues, or encounter any suspicious phenomena, please contact the seedling department as soon as possible, and after confirming that the information is correct, a generous reward will be given.

Paid by: Mr. Wei Xiao, the person in charge of the seedling department. ]

Qi Zhen tore off the reward notice, folded it neatly and put it in his pocket, and continued to walk towards the office as if nothing had happened.

The office door was unlocked, and he politely knocked on the hidden door, and only pushed the door in until Mr. Lord said "Please come in."

Mr. Lord had brought a large cardboard box and was busy packing his personal belongings into it.

He took the time to glance at Qi Yan: "Oh, you're here, I'll clean it up soon, and this will be your office in the future." ”

Mr. Lord whistled briskly as he cleaned up, and seemed in a good mood, as if he had been looking forward to this retirement holiday for a long time.

Qi Zhen looked at the other party a little strangely, and he found that Mr. Lorde's original stiff and mechanical smile was gone, replaced by indescribable joy.

Mr. Lord was happy, out of the mess that he had.

"Congratulations on your vacation." Qi Yan said to Mr. Lord very wisely.

Mr. Lord laughed: "Actually, my job is not very technical, and the most important thing is to supervise the work of the workers and find out who is least efficient among them." ”

"And send it to the nursery?" Qi Zhen received it quickly.

Mr. Lord looked at him in disbelief, then smiled, "It seems that you already know what the punishment is. ”

Qi Ji: "Is it the KPI of the supervisor to send people to the nursery every day?" ”

Mr. Lord shrugged helplessly: "No way, I can't complete this KPI, I am the one who was sent to the nursery." ”

In short, the supervisor must choose one unlucky egg from the staff every day to send to the nursery, otherwise he will become the unlucky one.

Qi Yan said tentatively: "Mr. Lorde, do you know what is going on in the nursery room? ”

The muscles on Mr. Lorde's face twitched, "I don't know the specifics, but it definitely won't be a good place, because the people who went in never came out." ”

As it turned out, not all the management knew what the factory was up to.

They just strictly follow the factory regulations and fulfill their "duties" in order to protect themselves.

Mr. Lord was not fully aware, which was good news for Qi Ji.

This shows that the nursery does not want to make their business public.

Qi Yan inserted his hand into his pocket, and his fingers touched the bounty announcement that he had just torn off.

Maybe it can become a new trading weight, and he secretly makes a new plan in his heart.

"Anyway, good luck," Mr. Lord said, gesturing to the beer at his desk before leaving, already packing up his cardboard box, "these are for you." ”

Qi Yan smiled: "Thank you, it's delicious." ”

"Director, do you need to reassign your work today?" Gu Zhenzhen asked half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Qi Ji: "There is no need to waste time on meaningless work, it is also very important for us to go to the cultural center in the morning to learn and be familiar with the corporate culture." ”

Since the supervisor's job is to set rules and punish employees for going to the nursery, there is no point in these repetitive and boring tasks, and it is better for him to use his position to help find more information about Rosefish and the factory.

Qi Zhen led his three employees into the cultural center reference room, last time under the supervision of Mr. Lord, no one dared to look through the documents in the exhibition hall, this time Qi Zhen has the final say, he will naturally not be polite.

"I need your help finding out when the rosefish appeared, and the information in the profile about the current boss of Bates."

He has already introduced that workers will turn into rosefish petri dishes when they are infected, and the petri dishes will be crazy in need of the flesh and blood of living people to replenish energy during the breeding stage of fish eggs.

Why is it human flesh? Does this have any connection to the story of the Rybets family?

The sound of flipping through the paper echoed in the silence, and the work of finding information was obviously much more comfortable than the fishy workshop and the assembly line work that continued to lose pleasure values, and everyone did their best.

Not long after, Ji Xiaoye opened the thick information booklet: "There have been three times in history, the first rosefish appeared after the war, that is, Mr. Lord introduced, the first generation of Mr. Bates ran the wartime factory period, but the first generation of rosefish recorded here did not appear in the nearby sea, but a bay very close to the battlefield, and the old Mr. Bates accidentally found the rosefish in the battlefield bay because of his work." ”

"The second time the rosefish appeared in the sea not far from the factory, it was discovered by this generation of Bates bosses. It is noted here that not long before the discovery of the rosefish, a psychopathic serial murderer appeared in the town, and the area where the rosefish appeared was the place where his body was dumped, and the police found more than thirty corpses there......"

"The third appearance of rosefish was last winter, at the end of December, when the factory was on annual vacation, it was found in the sea behind the factory, and it was discovered that the factory developed an artificial seedling method for rosefish, which was officially put into canned production, reversing the trend of factory closure." Ji Xiaoye shared the information he found with everyone.

"Based on the above information, the first two appearances of rosefish are related to death and corpses," Ji Xiaoye said his conclusion, "The first is the death caused by the war, and people are likely to throw the people killed in the war into the nearby sea; The second is the place where the serial killer dumped his body, and the same large number of dead and corpses are gathered. ”

Gu Zhenzhen was stunned: "So it's basically certain that the rosefish appeared in the place where death occurred?" ”

"I think eight or nine are not far from ten, and the probability of occurrence is relatively random."

Qin Rang: "But the third time, that is, at the end of December last year, there was no record of murder in the vicinity. ”

Ji Xiaoye twisted his eyebrows: "If you can find the proof of death at that time......"

"Someone did disappear at that time, Qin Rang, do you remember what Miss Rossetti said in her diary?" Qi Yan reminded.

Qin Rang was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and said, "Madam is gone!" ”

On Christmas Eve last year, Miss Rossetti wrote in her diary, "Mom didn't decorate the Christmas tree, didn't prepare Christmas Eve dinner, she didn't even give me a goodnight kiss on Christmas Eve, she never forgot that...... She vanished. She's gone!"

"That's right!" Qin Rang almost exclaimed.

Qi Jiu: "So, the third generation of rosefish was exchanged for the death of the lady. ”

Miss Rossetti's office was filled with portraits of her and specimens of roses, and she speculated that the roses themselves were related to her wife, so Miss Rossetti finally renamed "Red Fish" in honor of her wife.

Perhaps, in Miss Rossetti's eyes, these disgusting rosefish are the continuation of Madame's life.

"That's... Could it be that Madame was deliberately murdered to make a rosefish? Gu Zhenzhen shuddered and asked.

Ji Xiaoye sneered: "As we all know, 58% of the women who disappeared unexpectedly were killed by their husbands or male partners[1], and the appearance of the rosefish is related to the interests of the entire Bates family. ”

Qi Zhen frowned and didn't speak, if their speculation was true, Madame was killed by someone from the Bates family, or even Mr. Bates, it would be too similar to the situation of the No. 5 wife killer - killing his wife and feeding the fish.

Could it be that the copy is also influenced by the real experiences of the participants?

At this moment, the system emitted a sizzling electric sound—

[Congratulations on correctly deducing the ending of Madame, successfully completing the "Cat and Madame" branch, and obtaining the bonus "Madame's ID Card" item use permission*1]

Qi Jiu: ......?

The system is getting naughty.

Soon it was time for lunch, and after a routine physical examination, Qi Yan walked to the North District.

After being promoted to management, the North District Canteen opened up access to him, and Qi Jue decided to use the meal time for the necessary "socializing".

Qi Zhen put on the supervisor badge left by Mr. Lorde, and the process of entering the North District Canteen was unimpeded.

The management of the canteen in the north district is relatively free, except for the first three dining rules, which are the same as those in the canteen in the south district, there is no limit on the number of dishes selected by the dining staff and the amount of leftover meals.

Qi Yan glanced at the dishes in the window, although the dishes were not as exquisite as the canteen in the southern district in the later period, there were no strange ingredients, they were all ordinary home-cooked dishes.

But Qi Yan soon discovered that the meals in the North District canteen were not provided for free, and each dish was clearly priced.

The factory thinks that because the management is paid a good salary, it does not have to enjoy the benefits of free meals...... It's no wonder that Mr. Lord always rubs the South Side cafeteria on the pretext of guiding newcomers.

"Hello, how to handle the meal card in the canteen?" Qi asked an aunt who looked like the person in charge of the cafeteria.

The cafeteria aunt looked up when she heard the sound, and was stunned the moment she saw Qi Yan, splashing the soup from the spoon that fell in her hand.

It was this familiar expression again, Qi Ji wondered in his heart, but asked politely on his face: "Sorry, I'm disturbing your work." ”

The aunt quickly returned to her normal expression, as if the panic just now had not happened, she wiped her hands on the apron and walked to the side of the card machine: "Tell me your department, employee number and name, and then make a record of your fingerprints." ”

"How do you recharge your meal card?" Qi Zhen told the other party the information as requested, and then pressed his fingerprint to verify the information, and asked.

Auntie enters the information: "Deduct ...... directly from your salary"

She was halfway through her words when she suddenly frowned, "Sir, the system shows that your meal card already exists." ”

Qi Yan was stunned for a moment: "What? ”

Auntie is official: "You have already recorded fingerprints in the canteen system, made a meal card, and reported loss, this is your card." ”
