Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 52 Escape
Xixikeke Street, closed community Hornet Logistics Center.

A large number of goods or parcels from closed communities are transported and concentrated here, including some shady goods. Those who can work in the logistics industry in the gray area naturally have some background.

But it is the staff below who suffer the most.

They don't get paid much, so it would be acceptable if they can just do their normal job. The only thing they're afraid of is that they might accidentally find something they shouldn't while working.

If you are luckier, you can get away with it by earning hush money, or you can make some extra money and just keep your mouth shut and pretend nothing happened.

If you are unlucky, you won’t see them coming to work the next day.

"Xiao Lu, the people from Cameron Street seem to have come to ask for an explanation for the wrong batch of goods we sent last time..."

"Tsk, what does it have to do with me? I asked that drunkard James to take my place that day because I had something to do and I paid him. But if something goes wrong, you still want me to be held responsible?"

"The problem is that the shift schedule hasn't changed... Hey, you've been getting more and more irritable lately. Although the black market over there isn't very powerful, it's not something that we logistics people can afford to offend."

Here, two people were talking next to the warehouse. The middle-aged man felt helpless when he saw the unhappy look on the young man's face.

"Tsk, people from Cameron Street dare to cause trouble for Hornet Logistics?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe they'll hand over the person in charge to take the blame in order to calm the situation down." The middle-aged man said earnestly, "The supervisor doesn't care about that. He doesn't care who did it. He'll let whoever made the shift schedule take the blame."

"That damn baldy!" The young man stood up angrily, scaring the middle-aged man.

He looked at the other person with an uncertain expression, who looked a little scared, but finally suppressed his emotions: "Oh, I'm sorry. Thank you for letting me know, Brother Wang."

"No, it's okay... just calm down. It's just that, Xiao Lu, have you encountered anything else recently? It seems that you are not in a good mood." Brother Wang also said with concern when he saw this.

Xiao Lu moved the bench he had knocked over and sat down: "Nothing, just some trouble at home..."

He looked down at the ground, forcing himself not to look at the things moving between the goods in the warehouse in the corner of his sight.

Lulu~.

The hollow and playful sound kept coming, echoing in his ears and irritating his nerves.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. If you really want to, come and talk to me." He said in a suppressed voice.

Brother Wang nodded and changed the subject: "Come to think of it, recently there have been a lot of people sneaking into our logistics center. Although there were a lot of them in the past, after all, the supervisors have some connections with the surrounding gangs, and they do things here secretly. But this time it's a little different..."

"Well... I know this." Upon hearing this, Xiao Lu's face became even gloomier as he lowered his head.

"It could be someone from the law firm. I don't know why they came here. Maybe they are targeted after some gang committed a crime and were given a warrant. Haha." Brother Wang laughed.

But when he found that Xiao Lu next to him didn't seem to respond at all, he stopped laughing awkwardly: "Uh, it's almost time to eat, I'll go get you a lunch box."

"Um...thanks."

Brother Wang left, and Xiao Lu slowly raised his head. At this moment, the terrifying shadow was right in front of him, facing him face to face.

"Lu Lu~."

"Get out!" Xiao Lu gritted his teeth but still tried to lower his voice to prevent others from noticing that something was wrong.

"I have helped you so much! I used my job and the shoe factory to cover for you, and helped you secretly contact buyers to select so-called high-quality targets. In the end, what did you give me? Where is the power to get out of this situation? My family has no money anymore! Now I can't even protect myself..."

"It has nothing to do with me. That day, you were the one who... urgently asked for leave to go to the hospital to see your mother." The voice said mischievously.

"The people in the firm have noticed it! How long can we keep our little tricks secret?... Bullshit! I quit! Get out of here! I quit!" The moment the word "mom" was mentioned, Xiao Lu's emotions collapsed instantly, and even though he controlled himself well, his suppressed voice still scolded the other party.

He stood up and went to talk to his supervisor.

But his body froze and he lost control of it in an instant, his soul seemed to be caressed and kneaded by countless hands, and the other party could shatter his "consciousness" at any time.

His body and his existence no longer belonged to him...

"Sorry~, no... You... must do it... until I find... something I'm satisfied with... Who made Lu Lu... so useless... I don't even want to give in... Otherwise, I would have made you change a long time ago... Hehe."

"Asshole!" "Don't worry, I'll help you... deal with that bald supervisor... It's just a small mistake... You're just a small employee... No one will notice you..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sense of restraint on Xiao Lu suddenly stopped.

I didn't know where that thing went.

"Eh? Girl, what are you doing here? We don't allow outsiders to enter here casually..."

At this time, he heard Brother Wang's voice. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Brother Wang talking to a young girl with a meal in his hand. The girl was very beautiful, but her face was covered with scars.

"I have obtained permission from your supervisor and am here to look for the staff member who worked on this date and during this time period. These are the order numbers of the goods he handled. Can you help me find him? I have something I want to clarify." The girl showed the contents on her mobile phone.

Brother Wang narrowed his eyes and looked at it, showing a surprised expression.

Of course I was surprised, after all, we were just talking about this matter.

As for Xiao Lu over here, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

I prayed in my heart that Brother Wang would never answer.

If there really is a danger targeting him and that thing, it doesn't matter what that thing is like, but he will most likely be directly invaded and will have no chance of turning around!

"Well, this might be a mistake. I'll go ask again." After saying that, the girl turned and left.

what?
Xiao Lu stood there in a daze.

Brother Wang came running over with a lunch box in his hand and said, "Hey, Xiao Lu, that girl must be from the firm. I've dealt with people like them many times, and I have a very clear feeling about them. It seems that there is a big problem with that batch of goods, and they all seem to have come to us!"

Xiao Lu showed an ugly smile: "Brother Wang, you, you helped me hide it?"

"Hey, it's nothing. Your family's affairs are not easy, but it's a pity that you are dragged into this mess. Here, here's your meal. Why don't you go back first? I'll ask your supervisor to ask for leave for you. You can't stay here today. There are not many good people in the office. If they find out, you will be in trouble."

"Thank you, thank you..." Xiao Lu took the lunch box and apologized dully.

After a while, he suddenly realized that the noisy footsteps in his ears had gone to somewhere.

His body felt more relaxed than ever before, as if he had been freed from any restraints.

how……

He subconsciously turned his head, wanting to know the reason.

Then, he saw a dark figure standing leisurely beside him with his hands in his pockets. The black vortex seemed to be sweeping away all the colors around it, and the dark fluid was staining the earth with impurities.

The air I breathe becomes empty, simply because what I'm approaching is a horror that shouldn't exist in this world.

He must be hallucinating.

An illusion even more terrifying than that thing.

Even when he saw that thing, he still had some hope in his heart, thinking it might be an opportunity.

But when he saw this person standing casually beside him, he only wanted to escape from this world as quickly as possible.

Even in the form of death...

"It runs quite fast and is so alert. Or has it prepared a backup plan in advance..." A hoarse and unpleasant sound like a blackboard being scratched by a sharp object slowly echoed.

They heard footsteps. Xiao Lu and Brother Wang looked in the direction of the sound. The scarred girl had returned without them noticing.

"Lying is not a good habit, but that thing is really alert. Did it run away without any regrets as soon as it saw me or sensed the risk? It seems that it really doesn't like this body."

Xiao Lu: "..."

Lin Yilin's casual words made him feel as if he had been stabbed inadvertently.
