Monster Escape Room Re-Employment Chapter 32

last person

Since then, things seemed to be progressing much more smoothly.

The first was the operating conditions of the Phantom Chamber. In order to fulfill the agreement, Lian Moqin kept urging various departments to go to team building for a month. Not only that, he also privately invited many friends to come over, euphemistically calling it “inspection of investment projects.”Since then, he lost his reputation as the Prince of iF among the staff and gained the nickname “Khorne”.

He won’t play it again after beating himself to death, but he will occasionally come to the store to hang out.

For some reason, he seemed to have a good impression of Lou Xian, and he would blush involuntarily when talking to him. It might be the residual influence of the last memory spell, or it might just be his love brain constitution. Jiang Lingyi really doubted whether the color on his face could go away.

However, he could somewhat understand Lian Moqin’s reaction.Since becoming lovers again, Lou Xian’s aura of a high-altitude flower has gradually transformed into a bewitching charm, and anyone can detect this change.When Jiang Lingyi thought that this was the change he had brought about, Jiang Lingyi couldn’t help but feel more love. For this, she was ridiculed by the monster employees, especially Brother Bandage, for a long time.

In addition, various cost-regardless marketing methods also worked. Suddenly, the Phantom Chamber became a well-known brand in the city, and customers came from other places to visit it.

With their popularity, the energy of the Yin-Yang Clutch Formation has become much more abundant. Coupled with what Lou Xian has collected, the strength of the monster employees has greatly increased.Lou Xian also recovered quickly and no longer needed to save, and could maintain his human form at all times. However, when spending the night at Jiang Lingyi’s house, he sometimes preferred to move in snake form.

I don’t know if it’s because winter is coming, but Lou Xian has been very sleepy recently, spending most of the week under the covers…

Secondly, Pang Mei, the troublemaker, seems to have softened his relationship with his enemy classmate Lian Shuhuai recently. At least Jiang Lingyi has not received any more complaint calls from the teacher.

Pang Mei often comes to the store to hang out with employees with whom he is close, and even Shuhuai will come with him cursing. Although he still looks like others owe him eight million, as soon as Pang Mei holds his hand, he will blush like his brother and become angry.

These two brothers are actually easy fools to deal with…

Unknowingly, the deadline set with Wu Yuanyuan also came to the last day.

Only a short month had passed, but Jiang Lingyi felt as if a year had passed.

It’s eight o’clock in the evening and the mall closes at ten o’clock.

The current total passenger flow is——

4999 people.

“The deadline is 12 o’clock tonight, based on the number of admissions recorded by the system.” Jiang Lingyi put down his mobile phone and looked around at the employees crowded in the lounge, “In other words, we still have one person missing.”

Today is Wednesday, a weekday night, and the mall is already sparsely crowded.To make matters worse, the weather forecast said there would be rain in the evening, and it was already pouring outside the window.The right time and place do not take advantage of each other.

“A person…” The vampire slumped on the chair tiredly, “But at this time, you are not acting in a TV series, why are you so arresting?”

Some more optimistic employees said: “There is only one person missing. Even if we fail to achieve it, Operation Wu won’t care too much, right?”

So some negative employees responded: “I don’t think so. That person has been unhappy with us for a long time, and there is nothing we can do about it if he deliberately wants to get stuck.”

“Don’t say such depressing words!” The Ripper slapped the table, “We have all created miracles this month! Who thought we could achieve this?”

Brother Bandage answered: “I have thought about it. Didn’t a certain store manager swear at the meeting that it would be easy to sell 5,000 people?”

Jiang Lingyi glanced at the chattering crowd: “Rather than these things, let’s think about how to get the last customer in the remaining three hours.”

“I’m going to pull people on the street!” Bai Wuchang stood up in a hurry, “I don’t believe it. With my handsome face, I can’t pull anyone over?”

Hei Wuchang said quietly: “The last time you did this, you were regarded as a pyramid scheme, and the security guard chased you three floors up.”

“That’s because they don’t know the goods!”

“Okay.” Jiang Lingyi waved his hand, “Let’s work in groups. Bai Wuchang and Hei Wuchang, you distribute flyers inside the mall and focus on couples and young people who are together. Vampire, you go to the subway entrance and take a look. Ripper Girl, you have the cast and crew on standby at any time. If there are guests, they must give 200% performance level. Brother Bandage, the logistics team will check all the equipment to make sure everything is safe.”

He stared at Midnight Clown and emphasized: “Especially don’t pick up the props in the trash can.”

Midnight Clown nodded sweatily.

Last time there was such a big mistake, he caused all the wages of the logistics team to be deducted, and he has deeply remembered this lesson.

“As for me -” Jiang Lingyi paused, “I will receive you in the lobby and contact acquaintances to see if anyone can come.”

However, tonight, even Mo Qin, the enemy, can’t count on him. He was sent on a business trip a few days ago and hasn’t come back yet. Even if he comes back immediately, he won’t be able to catch up in time.

The employees responded and left.

Jiang Lingyi sent a group WeChat message and looked out the window at the heavier rain.

The time slipped to nine o’clock in the evening.

There has been no news from the sales team, and the number of people in the mall has become visibly sparse.

“What should I do…” Hidden Fox Immortal poked a wandering soul anxiously.

“How about…” Midnight Clown suggested cautiously, “Let’s do something special…?”

The few remaining logistics team employees in the break room all looked at him.

“What do you mean?” Jiang Lingyi narrowed his eyes.

To be honest, the clown thought that the store manager should have thought of such a bad idea earlier than he did.

“It’s just like what humans call cheating.” The clown gestured, “Give money to passers-by, or find a wandering spirit and let it attach to something, pretend to be a customer, go in and walk around, and the mall system will record it…”

“No.” Jiang Lingyi flatly refused, “Do you think Wu Operations doesn’t have anything to do with us?”

The clown lowered his head.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Lingyi softened her tone and said, “Actually, we have already hired actors.”

Clown:????

“Ahem, so your thoughts are normal, but now is a bit of a bad time.”

“No, it’s not normal at all.” Brother Bandage immediately took over the complaint.

Half past nine.The saxophone music of “Going Home” played in the mall.

The wandering spirits seemed to sense this anxious atmosphere, wandering back and forth around Jiang Lingyi, their white masks changing expressions of (;′д｀) and (＞﹏<).

"It's okay." Jiang Lingyi said softly, whether to comfort them or himself, "There is still time."

In the worst case scenario, he can negotiate with Wu Operation, and he will be willing to pay no matter what the price is.

Brother Bandage walked to him, stood quietly, and also turned his attention to the door.

"Are you nervous?" Jiang Lingyi asked.

"A little bit." Brother Bandage was rarely honest, "But I'm even more unwilling to do so. We have come so far, and we are just missing the last step."

"Do you remember? On the first day you came here, you said at the staff meeting that this store deserved to close down."

Jiang Lingyi smiled: "Remember, it was such an unprecedented event."

"What now? What do you think of this store?"

Jiang Lingyi turned to look at him and said seriously: "You are still a group of freaks that I can't understand. Maybe I, a human being, will never be recognized and accepted by you… But as a store manager and employee, you are the best team I have ever seen."

The corners of Brother Bandage's mouth raised slightly.

Ten o'clock.Most of the lights in the mall were out.

"Why don't you go out and scare a few people?" Brother Bandage said, breaking the jar and saying, "I'm sure to scare them into running into the store!"

"Then tomorrow we will be on the social news, with the title 'Surprise! A mummy appears in a shopping mall, suspected of being a new method of promoting secret rooms in horror'." Jiang Lingyi said angrily, "Then the industrial and commercial, fire and police departments will join forces to investigate our store. Do you want to die in a different way?"

Brother Bandage stopped talking.

Ten fifteen.

Suddenly there were footsteps outside.

The footsteps were unhurried and slow, stepping on the smooth floor tiles, echoing clearly and steadily in the empty shopping mall.Everyone sat up straight at once.

A figure appeared at the door.

…It's a security guard patrolling with a flashlight.

Everyone's backs suddenly collapsed in frustration.

"What are you doing? Everything looks like wilted bar food? Is it closed?" The security guard waved his flashlight, turned around and said, "There is a guy here who is looking for your store. He wandered around the mall for a long time and said he was lost."

Only then did everyone see clearly that there was a young man following behind him, wearing a simple black hoodie and jeans, with slightly damp hair. He seemed to be walking in the rain.He has an ordinary appearance, the kind that you wouldn't be able to find in a crowd.

"Open! Open!" Jiang Lingyi stood up, and while stepping forward to greet him, he did not forget to look back and tell others to take their places.

"Hello, how many people are there? What theme do you want to play?"

"It's just me." The young man browsed the theme introduction on the bulletin board at the door for a while, "This is "Fortunate Female High School". I think it has good reviews online. The difficulty level is medium."

"Okay. The admission fee is 40 yuan, and the tour time is about two hours. I need to remind you that the mall is closed now. You will need to leave through the employee passage in a while, and I will show you the way."

"No problem." The man quickly scanned the QR code and paid.

Jiang Lingyi breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, the flow of people passed the test without any danger. At least the store was out of danger of closure.

Jiang Lingyi was about to guide him into the secret room, but the man suddenly said: "Wait a minute."

"Do you have any more questions?"

"Actually, I'm quite timid. Can you…please ask the store manager to accompany me in? I heard that you have an escort service." He looked at the name tag on Jiang Lingyi's chest, which read his name and the store manager's position.

This is troublesome. I really don’t know where this news came from. If everyone asks the store manager to accompany them in the future, what’s the point?

Jiang Lingyi was about to decline politely, saying that there was no such service, when the young man said again: "I heard what Mr. Lian Moqin said."

…that big mouth!!

Even Mo Qin's friend, Jiang Lingyi, refused, but right now he was the last guest to help him in times of need. If he turned around and walked towards the exit because of timidity, the situation would be even worse.

Jiang Lingyi sighed: "Okay, but for your gaming experience, I can only stay with you for a while, please understand."

After saying some notes and a synopsis of the plot, he pushed open the entrance disguised as a classroom door, and a dark corridor appeared in front of him.

Jiang Lingyi turned on the flashlight, turned sideways and said, "Please come in and watch your step."

The man walked in, followed closely by Jiang Lingyi, and closed the door behind his back.

Isolated from all sounds from the outside world.

In the dark corridor, the only sounds left were the breathing of the two people and the man's heavy footsteps.The flashlight beam flickered on the wall, casting distorted shadows.

"Jiang Lingyi." The man suddenly spoke and called his full name.

This is not surprising, the name is on the work badge.

It is strange that a stranger suddenly calls each other by his first name.

Jiang Lingyi slowed down unconsciously, but the man behind him did not stop at all, urging him to continue moving forward.

"…"

He walked in silence, but he was fully alert to the movement behind him.

"No matter how you look at it, he is an ordinary person. Why do you…"

"Why, why, why, why…"

The man's voice changed high and low pitches, as if he suddenly didn't know how to use his vocal cords.

"——Can you occupy Lou Xian's heart?"
