"Saipan, are you ready? Are we going to Baiyun Temple or Tenshuji Temple?"
"Let's go to the Taoist temple." After hesitating for a while, Saipan decided to go to the Taoist temple.
They went there by subway, and on the subway, the hallucination came back again, and the people around them turned into various horrible ghosts with dead looks.
Saipan didn't dare to say a word and waited until they arrived at the Taoist temple and burned incense.
While at the Taoist temple, Saipan still encountered strange things, but compared to the horrors in other places, the Taoist temple became desolate, dilapidated and overgrown with weeds in a flash.
Saipan didn't know whether this was something to be thankful for.
Could it be that the boss was lying to me and that it would be safer to go to the temple?
But no matter what, I've gone there, and the next thing left is to find the boss and ask for clarification.
Saipan came to the top floor of Longhua Haojing again. This time, his purpose, thoughts and state were different from the first time and the next time.
She had to ask clearly.
Press the doorbell.
"Please come in."
Saipan pushed the door open and walked to the front of the boss's desk, but the boss still did not reveal his true face to her.
If it was before, she would just think it was the other person's quirk, but now her mood is completely different.
"Until now, you are unwilling to show me your true face?" There was no embarrassment at all. Saipan came here to confront me.
“You don’t even want to call me boss.
"However, we will spend more time together later, so you don't have to rush to see my true face."
"I don't think we are destined to spend more time together."
“You really integrated into the Dragon Kingdom so quickly.
"Is there a possibility that the problem is not with the company, but with you?"
"What do you mean?" Saipan frowned.
"Saiban Petty! Why were you able to learn the Dragon Country language so quickly? Why can't you gain weight no matter how much you eat and still be so healthy? Why did you encounter those terrible things? Because you are a one-in-a-million psychic medium!"
"Me? A psychic?" Saipan had watched many horror movies in Dragon Country, so she roughly knew what a psychic was. Probably someone who could communicate between the Yin and Yang worlds. But she had never thought that she was actually a psychic. Was this true or false?
“It’s not because you came to the company that those things happened to you.
“It’s because you’re entangled in those things that you’re attracted to the company.
“Weirdness attracts weirdness.”
"You...you're a liar! How could it be that I was entangled in those things? Nothing like this has ever happened to me before!" After learning the so-called truth, Saipan became even more frightened. If that was the case, would he really be relieved if he quit his job?
"You are still dreaming that if you quit this job, you won't encounter this kind of thing, right? Before you, there were actually six college students who were ready to come here to work, but in the end none of them dared to apply for the job like you did, so their final results must not be very good." The boss's voice sounded again.
"I... this... this is impossible." Saipan gritted his teeth and said, "Why should I believe you... Who can prove that you didn't kill those six female college students?"
"You can choose not to believe it. It doesn't matter to me whether you believe it or not. Even if you call the police now and say that I killed those six female college students, the police will not find out about me in the end."
"Who said they wouldn't find out about you? Those policemen before..."
"But I don't have any suspicion, or rather, I was not involved in those things."
"What... is that?" Saipan asked.
"You really want to know?"
"I had to know."
"Then do you know why I asked you not to tell your friends about what happened to you?"
"Why?" Saipan became anxious when she thought of Tang Tang. She wasn't so anxious originally, after all, it was just something that happened to her. But if what happened to her happened to Tang Tang...she would not be able to rest in peace even if she died.
“Knowledge brings pollution.”
The other party's light words made a loud noise in Saipan's head.
“No matter when, the more you know, the less happy you are.
“Because they don’t know how dirty this industry is, many people dream of becoming workers in this field, but after getting involved, they find that things are not as good as they thought.
“When I was little, I believed Santa Claus existed, but when I grew up I realized he didn’t exist.
“Before people knew that pickled cabbage was made by stepping on it, everyone liked to eat instant noodles with the flavor of pickled cabbage.
“Knowledge brings about a different understanding of the world.
“That’s pollution.
“And that’s what happened to you.
“As for what you said, what happened to you.
“That’s the spirit world.
"The spirit world does not refer to the world of ghosts, or not just the world of ghosts, but other worlds that overlap on your timeline.
“There are many parallel worlds on the world line of this world.
“Those worlds are different from this one. Some have special creatures, some have special rules, or they may just be different futures caused by a single choice made by someone.
“Even the spirit world may not be a parallel world, it may be the past or the future.
“The one who can see these worlds with his eyes and feel these worlds is a medium.
“It’s one of the weirdest things in this world.
“Weirdness naturally refers to unusual and abnormal things. You yourself are unusual, so you will attract these weird things.
"The police officer who questioned you certainly didn't notice what happened to the six female students before. He might have noticed it, but he certainly didn't tell you that the six female college students had come to this company to look for jobs before.
"They are all mediums. Not all of them were born in this city, but they were drawn to this city. They come from all over the country.
"When they were in college, their psychic qualities were about to awaken, and they subconsciously sought shelter, and then they saw the recruitment notice of this company.
"In the end, they didn't choose to believe in themselves, didn't step through the door, and were unable to save themselves.
"Do you understand, Miss Saban Petty?
"You should be thankful for your confidence."
Chapter 199 That's What You Deserve
"How can I trust you?" Saipan bit his lip.
"Don't you understand the situation yet? I'm begging you to trust me right now.
"Because after I step out of that door, it won't be me who dies."
Saipan gritted her teeth and finally decided to trust the other party, because she had no one else to trust. "Now that Tang Tang knows a little about this kind of thing, will she get into trouble?"
"Maybe. But if you don't tell her too much, she can still live in this world safely."
"So how can I protect her?"
The other party did not answer Saipan directly, "Can you give up something for others?"
"can."
“I’ve said before, don’t answer or do things on impulse.
“Whatever you say or do, you must be prepared to take responsibility.
"Are you able to give up the most important thing in your life for your friends?
"Even with your life?"
Saipan was silent this time.
She came to see this boss because she didn't want to die. But if she couldn't escape the fate of death in the end, then nothing would have changed, right?
And more importantly, she still had a lot of things she wanted to do but hadn't completed, and a lot of things she wanted to eat but hadn't eaten.
Maybe that's a bit selfish.
But who is not afraid of death?
How could she not be afraid of death?
But letting her watch her friend die was totally impossible.
She was struggling with her conscience because Tang Tang was dragged into this because of her.
If I die because of myself...
“There’s a knife at that station over there, if you’re really prepared.
"If I could give up everything for my friends, I would live on.
"Just slit your throat and I'll help you clean up the mess."
As if understanding Saipan's current hesitation, the man behind the boss chair gave another choice.
"I..." Saipan didn't know how to answer the other party.
Her death can exchange for the safety of her friends. She doesn't want Tang Tang to get into trouble, but she doesn't want to die yet. But if she says it aloud, will she be labeled as selfish?
"It's okay if you can't make a choice now. Just live a normal life as a person.
“This is the most important thing you need to do.
"It's not that there is no way to protect friends without sacrificing yourself, but that road is full of thorns."
"In that case, I will do it, no matter what lies ahead. As long as it can help Tang Tang!"
Just now he was still struggling with whether he wanted to live or not, but now he could say that he would protect Tang Tang no matter what was ahead...
Saipan himself feels that he is hypocritical.
“There’s a book underneath the knife at your workstation.
"Take it and see for yourself."
This time, Saipan finally dared to go to his workstation. He didn't want to die if there was still a chance of survival.
Saipan came to the workstation and saw a book on the table, and on the book was a... sword handle?
Saipan picked up the hilt of the sword in confusion. It didn't look like a complete sword at all.
If the hilt were not made of metal, it would look like a toy.
"This hilt..." Saipan recalled what his boss had just said and felt confused.
Did he know he would come? That's why he put this book on the table? Did he know he would not choose death, that's why he only gave me a bladeless hilt?
If this is the case, are you always under the other person's control and acting according to his or her preferences?
A strong discomfort swept through Saipan's body.
At this moment, she felt like Monkey King in the hands of Tathagata, and there was no way she could escape from the other party's Five Finger Mountain.
"I roughly know what you're thinking? But it's not a trick like mind reading. It's easy to guess the way a mediocre person like you thinks.
“That sword is real, not a toy, and not a broken hilt.
“It’s just that with your current attitude, you can’t use it yet, so just take it.
“It might be useful at an unexpected time.
"When you are able to pick up that sword, you will also have the power to protect the ones you love."
"Huh? Thank...thank you." Saipan picked up the book on the table.
"You're welcome. That thing is what you should have taken."
Saipan didn't understand what the other person meant, so he could only look at the book in his hand. The name of the book was "Red Dragon Breathing Method".
If you only look at the title of the book, you might think it is just a Western fantasy novel. But now, having experienced so many things in such a short period of time, Saipan does not want it to be just a novel.
Breathing method...
I never thought that such a thing would exist in real life.
She didn't know if the boss gave her the fighting spirit breathing method because she was a Westerner.
Compared with the breathing method, Saipan is more envious of the Eastern cultivation method.
