I leaped up and instinctively

turned around and grabbed the other person.

If it weren't for something soft in my arms, I would have given the other person a bear hug!

"Xu Xiaoli, what are you doing?!"

I let go of my hand in annoyance.

Xu Xiaoli is from the neighboring group, under Lao Zhang.

We've never gotten along.

Xu Xiaoli patted her chest and said unhappily, "Where are you touching with your claws?"

I scolded angrily, "You scared me to death. You're the crazy one, and you blame me?"

"Where's Da Pan?"

Xu Xiaoli asked.

"Da Pan is dead."

I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.

"Did he die in the smoking room?"

I was surprised to hear that. "How did you know?"

"I just came out of the restroom, and in the smoking room across the hall, the floor-cleaning machine was spinning around, covered in blood and flesh..."

I suddenly remembered the scene of Da Pan's death, and I almost vomited.

"Da Pan was like a dumpling with its skin peeled off, and his intestines spilled out!"

I tried my best, but I couldn't control myself, and my voice sounded choked with tears.

Xu Xiaoli looked coldly at me and said, "Why are you so cowardly?"

"Damn it, aren't you afraid?"

"To tell you the truth, a woman also died in the ladies' restroom just now! A light fixture fell and pierced her neck!"

This woman looked calm.

My heart turned cold listening to that.

Xu Xiaoli continued, "My grandfather is a carpenter in the countryside, and I've learned a bit from him. It's just that there are some little ghosts causing trouble. After killing that bald guy, the bald guy started causing a fuss again. Believe me, we can survive if we deal with it!"

"Chen Ze, do you believe me?"

Xu Xiaoli provocatively raised her eyebrows, biting her lips as if seducing me.

"How can I believe you? Just empty words?"

Hearing me say that, Xu Xiaoli snorted.

"Heh, Chen Ze, you're a smart person. In our department, you're an old-timer. You made a lot of money during the company's first two years of prosperity, right? You know what I want, don't you? At least give me one thing, whether it's money or people?"

Xu Xiaoli leaned closer to me, rubbing her ample chest against my arm.

I instinctively backed away, then suddenly glanced to my left and quickly looked around, saying, "What about Xiao Zhao?"

I turned my head, "Da Pan, did you see Xiao Zhao—"

Oh.

Da Pan was already dead.

"Why do you care about Xiao Zhao? She was called by Yan Da Tou. Hmph, you men don't understand women. Little girls like her, with hardly any hair, what's the point?"

Xu Xiaoli said discontentedly, "In a couple of hours, it will be midnight. You know what gets most excited during this time, right? The entire company's signals have been blocked, but there's occasionally a bit of signal in the ladies' restroom. I just ordered takeout. Will you accompany me to pick it up? We can eat and chat at the same time, how about that?"

I started to feel anxious.

Should I listen to her?

Or should I follow the instructions and not move around?

"Ghost, there's a ghost outside the window! I saw it! It's the Scroll King who died in the document printing room!"

Suddenly, someone in the corner shouted loudly.

Whoosh!

People by the window suddenly stood up and pulled down all the blinds.
