Chapter 228 Strange Mapping
In front of me is an office building that looks nothing special. It has a total of thirty-three floors, and the exterior is a common glass curtain wall with an overall gray tone.

It was about eight o'clock in the morning, the rush hour for work. Luke's spirit body saw a large number of people carrying backpacks or walking into the office building.

Most of them were dressed casually and somewhat sloppily, looking at the access control checkpoints with dead expressions, yawning and looking at their phones, while a small group of people quickly ate their breakfast.

"They all look like normal office workers... Is there anything unusual that I haven't noticed?"

The spirit frowned, wondering whether to go in and take a look.

He was just a little soul carrying Lu Ke's consciousness, so his loss wouldn't have much impact. And now since they were too far away, he couldn't borrow power from his main body, and if left alone for a while it would slowly dissipate.

But after all, his essence is a part of Luke. If he is caught by some powerful person, maybe he can find his way back through the connection between himself and his original body, just like he found his way back through Prell's anti-adult content patch.

However, for things like curses, the medium actually only plays a positioning role. If you want to harm the main body through yourself, you must first have strength that exceeds that of the main body.

The sub-spirit thought for a moment and made a cradle device on its own body. As long as the signal received from the main body was cut off, it would immediately begin to disappear from the root. It could also be activated actively.

This way you don't have to worry about being trapped by the enemy and leaving something to use against you.

One insurance policy is not enough, and it is a bit imprudent for him to go in like this.

"Maybe I can ask someone else to help me take a look."

The spirit body stopped in front of a middle-aged office worker with a worried look on his face who was about to enter the office building. His eyes met the pair of bloodshot eyes, and a blue light flashed in his eyes.

[Go in and take a look around, come out after fifteen minutes, and tell me what's going on inside in detail.]

The office worker swiped his card with a sad face as he passed through the gate, ready to go to his crappy job. Suddenly he stopped, his eyes became empty for a moment, and then he walked in as if nothing had happened.

The spirit body silently waited at the entrance for information to arrive, watching waves of people walk into the office building.

At this moment, there was a brief commotion in front of the door.

An ultra-cool sports car stopped not far from the office building's gate. Its body lines were smooth and slender, and its windows were narrow and delicate, like an elegant dancer. Even people who didn't know much about the business could tell that it was very expensive.

The spirit body floated over with narrowed eyes, and its eyes instantly widened.

There were two people in the car. The woman driving the car was about thirty years old. She was extremely tall and slender, probably nearly two meters tall. Her appearance was as breathtaking as the bright moon in the dark night, with a noble and elegant temperament.

The spirit was surprised. This woman reminded him of the Full Moon Queen, Lenara. When he shifted his gaze to another person, he was so shocked that he almost jumped up.

The young man next to him was probably in his twenties, with a youthful face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a bright and handsome appearance.

It's Luke!
The person who knows oneself best is oneself. One look at the spirit body will tell that this young man is Lu Ke.

But the main body should be at the border, why does it appear here?
Restraining his restless emotions, the spirit remained calm and continued to observe the two people.

"Auntie Lei, I told you to just put me down at the corner, but you put me down so close, and if my colleagues see us, they'll think I'm a gigolo."

"Luke" seemed a little dissatisfied with the behavior of the woman driving the car, and his tone was a bit complaining, "If you do this again, don't give me a ride next time."

"The company is too far from where you live. It would be inconvenient for you if I don't send you off. Besides, you are a gigolo anyway."

Lu Ke choked and muttered in dissatisfaction, "You can't say it out loud, it's so embarrassing for me."

Aunt Lei was quiet for a few seconds, then glanced at Lu Ke and said, "You seem to have a new girlfriend recently. Her name is Meilin or something else?"

"Uh... didn't we agree not to interfere with my private life?"

"Luke" felt a little guilty about being caught, but he quickly recovered and felt righteous.

The spirit body that was listening in was clearly in a soul state but still felt a little toothache.

Fuck, what a scumbag’s statement. Is Lu Ke such a scumbag?
"I won't interfere with you, Luke."

"Auntie Lei" gave "Lu Ke" a smile as gentle as the moonlight and kissed him on the cheek.

"But don't use too much force on her, you know what I mean, your here..."

Aunt Lei slid her fingers down Luke's chest and put on a charming smile, "I want them all."

"Luke" swallowed, as if he thought of something terrible, and quickly opened the car door and ran out.

"I'm going to be late for work Aunt Lei, I'm leaving now!"

Aunt Lei looked at the escaping Lu Ke and smiled, "I'll pick you up in the evening."

"no need!"

Seeing "Luke" running into the office building as if he was escaping from some monster, the spirit hesitated for a moment, gave up its previous plan and followed him in.

"Auntie Lei is good in every way, but the thought of having a baby is too scary. I feel like I haven't grown up yet, how can I be a father?"

"Luke" muttered quietly as he walked along. His pocket vibrated a few times, and he took out his cell phone to answer it.

"Luke, how about having lunch together at noon? I have prepared a gift for you."

A soft female voice came from the other end of the phone, and she seemed a little nervous when she spoke.

Luke replied cheerfully, "Well, my little wood, I just so happen to have a present for you, too."

The two of them exchanged a few brief words and ended up kissing each other while holding the phone.

The spirit being standing nearby had a strange look on its face.

From the conversation just now, the relationship between Luke in this world and the women suspected to be the Full Moon Queen and Melina is quite similar to that in the border area, as if there is a mapping relationship between the two.

"Lu Ke" was unaware that someone was following him and went to the third floor of the office building on his own.

The spirit's face tightened. The third floor was where he had located the person. As he was about to go to work, Luke suddenly became listless and slow in his movements. He accidentally bumped into a middle-aged woman with a haggard face and who seemed to be a little anemic.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Sister Bu."

"Lu Ke" quickly apologized to her.

"It's out of the way."

Sister Bu was obviously a little unhappy, but she didn't want to lose her temper in public, so she just nodded.

"We have just started work, where are you going?"

"My cat is sick. Its fur is a little yellow. I want to take it to see a doctor."

"Have you asked for leave? Do you want to..."

"It's none of your business, just mind your own business!"

Sister Bu waved her hand impatiently, "Be more steady, or you will have a hard time during your internship."

"Oh ok, be careful on the road."

After being confronted, "Luke" was not angry. He said a few polite words and returned to his workstation.

"Were you bullied by that old witch Blood?"

The colleague next to him came over and chatted cheerfully, "That old witch is just like that. She has no business ability, so she likes to criticize others."

"It's okay. My cat is sick, so it's normal to be a little irritable."

A colleague chuckled and said, "Team Leader Wu assigned her a remote workstation and didn't assign her any good work. I think she will be laid off sooner or later."

“It sounds pretty miserable.”

"Luke" shrugged, turned on the computer, and frowned at the pop-up window in the lower right corner of the computer manager indicating the existence of a virus.

"Why is there suddenly a cracked virus?"

He clicked on the detailed location of the virus, opened the file packages one by one, and finally stopped in front of the root directory of a game.

"Oh, Elden Ring, the job the company assigned to me on Wednesday."

Luke looked at his colleague and asked, "Has anyone been assigned to test this game?"

"Yes, I found a famous female game anchor."

His colleague winked at him, "She has a great body and pretty face, and she's a homebody with no dating history. But she's a very honest person and she's used to completing games before preparing for promotion."

Luke was a little confused. "No, why are you looking for a girl to play? This game is aimed at men, right?"

My colleague shrugged. "The promotional slogan for this game is 100% true. When other big anchors heard it, they thought it was false propaganda and immediately stopped accepting it. In addition, the game cabin is quite expensive, which eliminated a large number of people. The higher-ups are pushing us hard..."

"It's just another boring office politics...Okay, I'll find time to visit that game streamer later."

"It's the female game anchor!"

A colleague emphasized one sentence.

"Luke" pulled out a thick stack of documents from the desk, looked through them for a moment, then stood up and asked a bald man at the front desk.

"Hey! Brother Long, will the game Elden Ring suddenly pop up a Trojan virus for no apparent reason?"

Long Ge yawned sleepily, "Why are you asking me?"

"The information above says that you are his primary person in charge."

"I play so many games every day, how am I supposed to know where this thing came from?" Brother Long replied impatiently.

"If you want to find someone, find the latest person in charge."

"The newest person in charge... the newest person in charge."

Lu Ke scrolled to the bottom of the information on the computer, looked at the name and rubbed his chin.

"Why do so many people in our company use English names?"

Latest person in charge column: Milika
Her name has turned gray.

"It sounds more sophisticated. I even gave myself the nickname Flame."

The colleague said this situation is very common, and then showed sympathy, "This is a bit difficult to deal with. Milika is now on unpaid leave at home."

"Suspended without pay, what did she do wrong?"

"I'm not sure. It seems like something happened at home, so he vented his anger on the game, secretly changing the data and making some incomprehensible shitty codes. It disgusted Manager Wu so much that he was unwilling to lead this project anymore."

The colleague shook his head and said, "She was punished for this, and her husband was also implicated and suspended from work with her. What do you think of this?"

Lu Ke nodded thoughtfully. "That sounds a bit extreme. So how do you think we should handle this?"

My colleague was silent for a moment, the corners of his mouth curled up a little, and a glimmer of illusory golden flame seemed to flash in his eyes.

"I think it's best to just delete the database and run away!"
