Don't follow the rules

Chapter 555: Cross Flower Church (XVIII)

"...You're talking more and more nonsense. Can your reasoning not be so Maori Kogoro?" Chun Yu Kong couldn't bear it anymore and gave Ning Yao a slap on the face.

Ning Yao covered his head in grievance: "It obviously makes sense! Didn't you nod your head repeatedly when you heard it just now?"

"Ahem," Chun Yukong coughed awkwardly, looking serious, "I am just providing normal emotional value as a listener."

Ning Yao suddenly looked inexplicably satisfied, chuckled obscenely, and then ignored the topic.

"Since you still have so many confusions about Rao Ying, why don't we make another appointment with her to have a chat? Anyway, we are on the same boat now. You have promised her so many benefits. If you can get her out, she will definitely cooperate." Ning Yao said.

Chun Yukong hesitated: "But if Rao Ying is determined to trick me, I won't be able to get the truth out of her even if I ask her out."

Ning Yao was very easy to talk to. He nodded and rubbed his hands: "So what are you planning to do?"

"Compared to getting words out of her, I think the clues obtained through personal investigation are more trustworthy," Chun Yukong said.

Ning Yao was refreshed and took out a thumbs-up from his pocket: "You have the direction! You are worthy of it!"

"…It's just a direction to try, don't brag about giving me a loan!" Chunyu Kong was a little annoyed and angry by Ning Yao's preschool-style flattery.
-
"Uh, is this the direction you mentioned?" Ning Yao looked at the fog in front of him, "Why do I feel confused about the road ahead?"

Chunyu Kong did not say a word, but walked firmly into the fog - and then came out of the fog.

"Nothing is difficult in this world as long as you are willing to give up. But I didn't expect you to give up so quickly." Ning Yao happily welcomed him.

Chun Yukong pushed him away in disgust: "Who gave up? I just kept walking forward after entering the fog, but soon I turned around and teleported out. This means that there is nothing behind the fog, or the map here has not been loaded."

Ning Yao approached curiously and said, "Is this the legendary border of the map? So what are you doing here? Aren't you here to investigate Rao Ying?"

"It's a little unexpected that this investigation is much more difficult than I thought. I originally planned to start the investigation from here, but now this area doesn't exist at all." Chunyu Kong frowned.

"here it is?"

"The association's special workshop for producing reams of paper."

Ning Yao blinked: "Let me sort it out. What you mean is that the origin has not been loaded yet, but the product has been in circulation for a long time?"

Chun Yukong looked at the mist ahead and said, "You can say that."

Ning Yao applauded: "Wow! What a great trick of 'confusing the cause with the effect', our investigation is hopeless!"

"I don't know what you are celebrating... Anyway, the production process of ream paper is kept secret from most people in the association. Even I only know the location of the production workshop and have never visited it in person," Chun Yukong retracted his gaze. "It's normal to run into a wall. Let's change direction."

Ning Yao scratched his head: "Do you have a direction again?"

Chun Yu Kong narrowed his eyes and stared at him as if warning. Ning Yao quickly made a zipper-like gesture to seal his mouth and patted his chest to indicate that he had shut up.
-
"The new direction is, eh? Is it really okay for us to come back like this now?" Ning Yao stood in a daze at the entrance of the association.

"No one would use the word 'straight and upright' to describe two living people. Also, the collective resignation of Team Jiang is the most worrying thing for the people in the association right now. No one will pay attention to a little Karami like you if you come back to take a paid shit." Chunyu Kong said some terrible words in a flat tone.

"I have led you astray. You used to be very elegant." Ning Yao was heartbroken. Before he finished his words, a huge explosion suddenly came from the middle of the association building.

The two looked up at the same time and saw gray smoke spreading out along the corridor and windows, with a lot of paper scraps and debris mixed in the smoke.

"That direction seems to be... the intermediate archive room, which is open to most of the association's employees, but the team leader of the field department has the power to set reading permissions. It seems that Yingying turned the firewall of the intermediate archive room to hell mode before leaving. Before leaving, she didn't forget to add one last responsibility to the annoying leader - she is worthy of being a general I admire." Chunyu Kong gently brushed the dust off his shoulders.

A burst of hurried footsteps came from behind, and the two turned around.

"Uncle Geng?!" Ning Yao shouted in surprise.

Geng Xun, wearing the navy blue uniform of the association's security guard, hurried over carrying two large fire extinguishers.

"Hey! Xiao Ning? You're a rare visitor!" Grandpa Geng's frown instantly relaxed. "You haven't come to see me for a long time. Will you go to the security room to have some soup later? I boiled it in a purple clay pot for five hours. It's very nutritious!"

"Uh, no, no, I still have a mission to complete. What are you doing?" Ning Yao declined politely, but then came closer curiously.

Uncle Geng then continued his previous train of thought: "Ouch! I almost delayed things! I have to go up and put out the fire!"

Ning Yao waved his hand: "There are fire extinguishers everywhere in this corridor, why bother carrying two upstairs?"

"You don't understand," said Grandpa Geng seriously. "That's the archive room. The information is valuable. We have to use the carbon dioxide fire extinguishers specially placed in the archive room. But those kids definitely won't pay attention to these details. The ones hanging in the corridor are ordinary dry powder fire extinguishers. If they spray them, the information will be destroyed."

Chun Yukong held back Ning Yao who was still trying to continue the conversation, and turned to Geng Xun and said, "We won't delay you any longer, please go up."

Uncle Geng looked at Chunyu Kong with some confusion, but still nodded at the two of them and ran away.

The overly enthusiastic Ning Yao waved at Uncle Geng's back, then turned around and asked: "What are we doing here?"

"Investigation order."

"Oh, yes, yes, how do we investigate?"

"... Let's go to the materials room on the fifth floor first. When we use reams of paper, we go to the materials room to get it on demand. If there are reams of paper in the materials room, we will continue to trace its supply channels, the administrative department, the purchasing department, the financial department... trace it back step by step until we find the break in this process. Since the reams of paper are not produced by the printing workshop, then the place where the break occurs is where the reams of paper are actually produced." Chun Yukong felt that his temper was really getting better and better. He could even patiently explain this to him.

Ning Yao seemed to understand, took out his employee card and swiped it at the elevator door.

卟卟
The card reader lights up red.

"Huh? What does that mean?" Ning Yao swiped it again in disbelief, but the red light was still on and the iron gate was closed.

Looking at the glaring "No Authorization" on the card reader, Chun Yukong rubbed his temples tiredly.

"I guess after Yingying and the others resigned, they might have cancelled the work information of everyone in Team Jiang in a rage... In other words, classmate Ning Yao, you have been fired."

Ning Yao awkwardly put away his employee card and took out his cell phone: "I'll ask An Han to come out and answer it."

"An Han can take you to the materials room, but other departments are not so easy to get to." Chun Yukong said.

"Ah? What should I do then?" Ning Yao was stunned.

Deng Deng Deng

Uncle Geng hurried over with two fire extinguishers in his arms.

I haven't given up on writing! My dears! I'm sorry, woohoo, I'm just overwhelmed by the heavy daily life (not really), I will find time to write!
