Day of Imprisonment

#343 - trouble

The matter of someone rebelling was such a big deal that it was obviously impossible to keep the news under wraps.

Even if the company's higher-ups didn't allow discussion, in private, as long as someone was a manager, a member of the company, they would secretly investigate and exchange information.

To some extent, it was no longer a secret.

Therefore, Baicai understood that even if he told Doudou some things, it wouldn't matter, because many people knew about the matter, even the details.

"To put it bluntly, it's just that some people are dissatisfied with the company's promotion system and want to obtain greater power and say in things, so they rebelled," Baicai said, but Doudou expressed a different opinion.

"Brother Cai, to be honest, I'm also dissatisfied, but the problem is, dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, I only dare to curse in my heart, because rebelling is impossible, my strength doesn't allow it. Someone like me, who can manage large scenarios, can only be strengthened to Elite Rank B."

"Nonsense, Elite Rank B is already good, I'm a supervisor, and I'm only Elite Rank A," Baicai snorted.

"Right, so Brother Cai, would you dare to rebel?" Doudou asked a soul-searching question.

Baicai shook his head.

"Elite Rank A, how dare I rebel? You have to know that above us there are…"

Suddenly, Baicai understood.

He smiled: "Who said you were stupid, Doudou? I think, you're not stupid at all."

Doudou's meaning was very clear: without enough strength, even if you have the intention, you wouldn't dare to do such a thing.

Let alone cause such a big commotion.

If we're simply talking about satisfaction or dissatisfaction, then all the employees within the company, including managers and supervisors, are dissatisfied, after all, people want to climb higher.

Negotiating terms also requires strength to support it.

Otherwise, it's just a joke.

So, if someone really rebelled and made things so big, then that person must have something to rely on.

And a significant trump card.

She had already found out this news.

Because among the managers, this was not a secret at all.

"I heard that among the rebels, there are managers, but also Memory Retrievers from below, and, one of them has reached the 'Immortal' rank."

"What?" Doudou was shocked, her eyes flashing, because she really didn't know this news, it was the first time she had heard of it.

People in the company all know about the strengthening ranks.

Mortal, that's just an ordinary person, there's no strong or weak, as long as they're normal people, they're this rank.

Above Mortal is Elite rank.

This is the rank that most managers are at, generally divided into three different levels from Elite Rank C to Elite Rank A. Don't be fooled by the fact that they're all Elite rank, but in reality, even wanting to increase one level from C to A is quite difficult.

Rank A is already the level of a supervisor.

Further up is 'Transcendent'. There aren't many in the company who have reached this level, they're all on the higher floors.

And above 'Transcendent' is 'Immortal'.

"What happened after that?" Doudou eagerly wanted to know the result of the rebellion.

Baicai shook his head: "I don't know, they didn't come in from the first floor, but went directly to the fourth floor through the 'Door'. As for what happened above the fourth floor, only the people above know…"

"Fourth floor? Brother Cai, you're a supervisor, have you been to the fourth floor?" Doudou looked curious.

"I've been there once, but the situation above is completely different from the lower three floors, but if it's an Immortal rank, they can still do some things, even… You shouldn't ask too much, knowing too much isn't a good thing," Baicai waved his hand, obviously not wanting to say more on this matter.

"Did they succeed?" Doudou couldn't help but ask.

"Has the company collapsed?" Baicai asked back.

Doudou shook her head.

"That's it then, whether they succeeded or not, it doesn't affect us, we should do what we should do."

"I understand, thank you, Brother Cai!"

Doudou stood up at this time, and then took out a silver flask from her pocket as if offering a treasure.

This thing was very delicate, carved with patterns, and had a very good texture.

It looked like a work of art.

"What is this?" Baicai was stunned.

Doudou's face was full of smiles, and she handed it over as if offering a treasure: "Brother Cai, don't you like to drink? I specially found this for you from Fairytale Town, I heard it's the strongest wine there, and the bottle is also very good-looking."

After speaking, she got up and waved her hand: "Brother Cai, I'm leaving, call me if you need anything."

Then she ran out.

She ran very fast.

Baicai looked at the delicate metal flask in his hand, twisted open the bottle cap, and suddenly a strong aroma of wine permeated out.

Twisting the bottle cap back on, and looking at the flat bottle, he smiled: "Heh, this guy, really has no worries."

After speaking, he sighed.

The original smile gradually disappeared.

Baicai returned to his own office.

Located on the second floor, a room of about a dozen square meters.

In the room, there was a desk, a shelf, and a bed.

On the shelf, there were many wine bottles.

Doudou was right, Baicai's hobby was indeed drinking, and after drinking a lot, collecting various styles of wine bottles became a natural thing.

Sitting in the chair, Baicai found a delicate crystal wine glass and poured a glass of the wine that Doudou gave him.

The amber-colored wine rolled into the glass, giving it a special beauty.

The only window in the room could not be opened, but one could see the dark chaos outside through the glass.

Even a supervisor like him wouldn't often look out the window.

That would give people a very strange 'sense of tearing,' because inside the building, everything looked normal. The lights, the equipment, the walking staff—everything was no different from reality. Only when you saw the chaotic darkness outside the window did you realize that this place simply didn't exist in reality.

"A false world!"

Bai Cai took a sip.

The entrance carried some fragrance, cool through the throat, with a refreshing劲 that seemed to instantly activate the body. It was silent in the stomach at first, and then it exerted its power. The after-effect was great, especially when drinking one cup after another. Soon, you could feel the obvious drunkenness.

The wine in the glass was already empty.

He didn't plan to continue drinking. A little drunkenness was enough, slightly numbing the nerves and senses, allowing people to temporarily forget their troubles.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

But he couldn't get completely drunk.

Because this was a terrifying place where people were eaten without spitting out bones.

Holding the empty glass, Bai Cai twisted it with his fingers, and his other hand tapped unconsciously on the table.

Bai Cai had many worries.

At this time, he was thinking about one thing.

"After the scene of sealing Zhou Ya was accidentally broken, I have been monitoring her, but she seems to have noticed."

"What exactly is she?"

Bai Cai asked.

But no one answered his question.

"Luo Xi asked me to design the mechanism of the 'Sega Apartment Building' scene to seal someone. This matter itself is very strange, but Luo Xi didn't mention any more details. Alas, he's always like this."

Muttering, Bai Cai wanted to pour more wine.

He was annoyed.

Annoyed, he wanted to drink.

This had become a habit formed over many past cycle days.

"Currently, letting Zhou Xinpeng become a Memory Retriever and using his concern for his daughter to track Zhou Ya doesn't seem like a good move. But damn it, I'm not good at playing chess anyway."

Bai Cai finally didn't overindulge.

Although he really wanted to indulge and get drunk, that should temporarily forget all his troubles.

However, doing so could easily lead to problems.

He was a supervisor in the company.

In the company, there were a total of twenty-four supervisors. Each supervisor managed some administrators and a corresponding number of scenes. Although most of the time, he didn't need to leave the office, he only needed to inspect and monitor the operating status of each scene through phone calls and dedicated scene logs, many things also required him to do it himself.

In addition, above the supervisor, there were also regional directors, and above the directors, there were also vice presidents in charge. Level by level, it was extremely strict.

To put it bluntly, the so-called supervisor was just a slightly more advanced beast of burden. Therefore, getting drunk was just an unattainable luxury.

Bai Cai scratched his head.

"Luo Xi, what the hell should I do next? Why don't you tell me everything at once?"

Bai Cai was just his nickname within the company.

In the company, many people didn't use their real names. There were quite a few people called cats and dogs.

His real name was 'Bai Feng'.

Becoming an administrator of the company, and then climbing all the way to the supervisor level, seemed to him to be a very long process.

This process was full of randomness.

Originally, he was able to become a Memory Retriever because of an accident. That day, he found a corpse and picked up a [Memory] card next to the corpse.

He took the card away, and then on what he thought was the next day, he experienced everything he had experienced the day before. At that time, he thought he was crazy.

Later, he encountered incredible and terrifying things, met so-called friends, and they taught him how to survive in the Days of Imprisonment, how to challenge various different level scenes, and how to obtain [Memories]. Of course, this friend later taught him a very important lesson in life.

Knowing a person's face but not their heart.

In a very special scene, they, several Memory Retrievers traveling together, encountered big trouble.

This scene was called 'Food Chain'.

The gameplay was very simple.

The entire scene only had one card table.

Administrators also actually participated in the game in this scene. The so-called 'Food Chain' was a specially designed poker game.

However, the playing cards were replaced with various animals and plants, following the rules of the food chain, that is, 'plants' were restrained by 'herbivores,' and 'herbivores' were restrained by 'carnivores'.

Initially, each person drew five cards, and then played them in turn. The first person to play a card had to play it, and the subsequent people could choose to play a card or not. If no one suppressed the person who played the card in a round, or if someone intercepted it halfway and was suppressed, then the 'winner' of this round could draw a card to replenish the five cards in their hand. At the same time, they became the first player in the next round.

After that, it was all according to this gameplay.

When the bottom cards in the deck were drawn, each person's hand could be checked for a final showdown.

That is to say, at that time, it depended on who had more carnivore cards. If the carnivore cards were the same, it depended on who had more herbivores.

The gameplay was relatively simple, and to get on the card table, you needed to submit a [Memory] card for each round.

To put it bluntly, it was a kind of gambling game.
