Chapter 20: The people I play are all dead?
"Okay, go find Xiao Qi later. He'll arrange your next task. Also, tell me what type of weapons you like. I'll apply for a trick weapon for you."

Chen Fu closed the pen cap and stretched.

I can actually get a magical weapon for free by acting in a play.

Lin Jue's heart moved slightly, and he said, "Leader, I want a weapon that is easy to hide, and preferably can be used for sneak attacks."

Just like his fruit knife, it is difficult to be found even when hidden in a bag or a sleeve. Once he gets close to the monster, he can give the opponent a fatal blow that will catch him off guard.

Chen Fu opened the pen cap again and crossed out the four words "open and aboveboard" on the form.

"Okay, go out. I'll apply for it for you in a few days." After he said this, he turned the boss chair back.

When I walked out of the office, Xu Xiaoqi was waiting outside. Seeing Lin Jue coming out, he smiled and said, "Did I ask you some strange questions?"

Without waiting for Lin Jue to answer, he continued, "Everyone who joins the investigation department will be asked these questions. It's mainly to make a preliminary assessment of your personality. After all, you will be teammates on missions together in the future, and you can't have an antisocial personality."

After saying that, he put his arm around Lin Jue's shoulders and said, "Come on, Brother Hao, I'll show you your workstation. There's also a teammate who will introduce you."

Xu Xiaoqi's personality is very outgoing, and it's easier to get close to people like him.

"By the way, I saw two photos of people on the captain's desk. He said they were not his teammates. Could this be the case we are going to investigate next?" Lin Jue asked casually.

His expression was normal, and it seemed that he was just asking casually out of curiosity.

Xu Xiaoqi looked around and whispered, "Those are two dead people."

"Dead people?" Lin Jue's expression was very surprised. This time it was real. He was still wondering where these people had gone, but he never expected that they were all dead.

Why would you let me play a dead person?

Could it be that the system killed those people specifically for the script?

Xu Xiaoqi briefly recounted what had happened before, and then continued, "Anyway, this is roughly the situation. One died half a year ago, and the other died half a month ago."

"The captain is worried about this right now. I think it must be some kind of special ability that can change faces. Someone is impersonating those two people."

"But it seems the captain doesn't think so. He thinks there's a mysterious organization behind all this."

"Brother Hao, which one do you think is more likely?"

He looked at Lin Jue, probably wanting to be recognized.

It sounds like the cause of death of Zhou Yue and Wang Tianshu was not the system. They had died a long time ago, and they had not yet traveled through time at that time.

I just didn't expect that Xu Xiaoqi looked a little stupid, but his guess was closer to the truth.

"I think the captain's guess is more likely. Who would be so bored as to pretend to be someone else and get themselves involved in weird events?" Lin Jue answered without blushing or beating his heart.

I wonder what the Night Ghost Team would think if they knew that the person they were investigating had infiltrated their group.

After getting the answer, Lin Jue did not dwell on this topic too much. He took the initiative to change the subject and chat with Xu Xiaoqi about family matters.

Along the way, Xu Xiaoqi kept introducing: "This is the clerical department, responsible for collecting and compiling the cases we investigate and filing them in books."

"That's the training room. There will be someone there to train you in combat skills. After all, mastering some combat techniques against monsters can increase your chances of winning. Generally speaking, newcomers must participate in training every day until they pass the assessment."

"That's the lounge. You can go there and lie down during your lunch break. Everyone has their own sleeping cabin. It's very private. No one will know what you do in there."

"Just don't make too much noise. Someone on the other team didn't control their strength well enough and shook the sleeping pod down, sending paper balls flying everywhere. He didn't even have time to put his pants on and was killed."

Xu Xiaoqi gave a look of understanding, and Lin Jue chuckled. This was indeed a good place. He could hide inside and practice his Tempering Skill at noon. The two walked to an empty desk, and Xu Xiaoqi said, "This is your workstation."

After saying that, he pointed at a young man opposite him and said, "That's Wu Hai, also our teammate. He lit up the Spirit Realm half a year ago and is also at the first level."

"Hello." Lin Jue walked forward and greeted, extending his right hand.

The young man just nodded slightly and looked away.

"Young people are a bit indifferent..." Lin Jue withdrew his hands with an embarrassed expression and rubbed them.

"That's just the way this guy is. He has a cold face towards everyone." Xu Xiaoqi pursed his lips and said, "Maybe that's just how masters are. It's lonely at the top."

Whoosh!
An ice cone condensed beside Wu Hai and flew towards Xu Xiaoqi.

"It's just a joke." Xu Xiaoqi smiled and pinched the ice cone, crushing it in his hand.

While the two were playing around, Lin Jue noticed the unfriendly looks coming from the next door. He followed their gaze and saw a few young people about the same age as Xu Xiaoqi.

Seeing Lin Jue looking over, those people smiled meaningfully and looked away.

"Those are the members of the Firefly Team. Their captain doesn't have a good relationship with our captain, and even the team members dislike each other." Xu Xiaoqi whispered in Lin Jue's ear.

Lin Jue nodded to show that he understood. Anyway, he was just there to act and would leave after the performance. There was no need for him to get involved in such a dispute.

The work in the Audit Department was not as impressive as Lin Jue had imagined. On the contrary, it was very boring when there were no strange events. Even if he sat at his workstation all morning watching short dance videos, no one would bother him.

"Let's go and have lunch. We have to go to the training room for training in the afternoon. Take a good rest at noon." Xu Xiaoqi knocked on his desk.

Lin Jue turned off his hot cell phone, had lunch with Xu Xiaoqi in the cafeteria, and then went to the nap room alone.

The nap room is very large, a bit like a capsule hotel, with small sleeping cabins inside. There are very few people taking a nap now, so the seats are still very empty.

Lin Jue chose the innermost sleeping cabin. Just as he was about to open the cabin door, a hand reached out from behind him and pressed the cabin door.

He turned his head and saw two young men standing there with smiles on their faces. He remembered that these two were from the Firefly Team.

"New here?" one of the young men asked.

"Yes, my name is Fang Hao, you can just call me Lao Fang."

Lin Jue smiled. Although the two men looked ill-intentioned, he didn't want to cause any trouble since he had just arrived.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Huang Yong." The young man stretched out his hand.

Lin Jue stretched out his hand and shook his. Feeling the gradually increasing strength of the palm, he suddenly grimaced: "Ah, ah, it hurts!"

Huang Yong snorted disdainfully and let go of his hand.

Lin Jue rubbed his hands and laughed dryly, "Young people are just very strong."

"It's boring. The Yeyou team has recruited a coward." Huang Yong didn't even look at Lin Jue and left with another young man.

As we walked, we could hear the sound of laughter.

Lin Jue looked at the backs of the two men as they left, and the smile on his face faded. He was now playing the role of a smooth middle-aged man. Fang Hao didn't want to cause trouble, but that didn't mean that he, Lin Jue, didn't hold a grudge.
