Forty minutes later, Song Qingge arrived at the company.

Upon seeing her, Sang Shunian let out a deep breath, feeling a great weight lifted from his shoulders.

"Boss Song, you've arrived."

Song Qingge nodded slightly: "Just call me Qingge."

"Okay." Sang Shunian briefly explained the strange things that had happened to the company recently: "Since your investment came in, my colleagues and I have been working day and night on product design and production. At first, everything was normal, but gradually many employees reported seeing some unclean things."

For example, the network suddenly drops completely, there is no WiFi signal no matter what, and no matter how many repairmen come to fix it, they can't fix it.

For example, when working overtime at night, sometimes there is no one in the seat next to you, but when you look up, you see a faceless person burying their head in typing on a keyboard.

The office area is very quiet, and people wear headphones whenever there is any sound. Recently, they have started to hear a buzzing sound.

At first, the staff thought the headphones were broken, but after replacing them, the keyboard sounds, wailing sounds, and even the sighs of men and women could be clearly heard at night.

"Sometimes when I walk through the corridor after get off work at night, I can clearly see the light blinking rhythmically. I rub my eyes, and it stops blinking. Changing the light bulb doesn't help," Sang Shunian sighed with worry.

In recent days, because of these strange events, some colleagues have taken leave, some are too scared to step into the office building, and some have even gone to see a psychologist.

The product's progress being stalled is a minor issue; if things continue like this, and word gets out that his company has some shady dealings, who would want to work for him?

Song Qingge said calmly, "I understand. Now, show me around your office."

Huai Xin Charity Company was founded by Sang Shunian. Although it has been around for a while, its scale has never been able to grow due to the charitable nature of the company.

The office is also on one floor.

As she walked through the corridor, the bright incandescent light pierced her eyes. Song Qingge lifted her eyelids to take a look, and then her attention was drawn to the black and white artwork on the wall.

I turned a corner and went to the front desk.

Sang Shunian glanced around and just then, an employee returned from the restroom. He grabbed him and asked, "Where's Xiaoli?"

The female employee looked at the receptionist: "Oh, they should be going downstairs to get their dinner."

The company is small and does not have a canteen, but it provides meal allowances.

After passing through the office area and looking around, Song Qingge was once again blinded by the incandescent lights, while the lighting in the rest area was relatively soft.

She was once again drawn to the black and white murals in the rest area.

"Mr. Sang, do you like black and white murals?"

When suddenly asked a completely unrelated question, Sang Shunian paused for a moment to think: "Oh, it's simple and elegant, it looks more high-end."

The company's interior design style is also minimalist with cool tones.

Song Qingge also noticed this, and even the employees' uniforms were mainly light-colored.

Overall, it looks uniform yet lifeless.

It lacked vitality.

"Boss Sang, could you please gather all the employees? I have a question that I need to ask them."

Sang Shunian didn't dare to delay, and in less than five minutes, all the employees gathered in the conference room.

No one dared to sit down.

Standing perfectly straight.

Some people looked at Song Qingge with curiosity.

Sang Shunian didn't forget to introduce her: "This is our new investor, Ms. Song. Let's give her a round of applause."

clap clap.

A rhythmic and uniform round of applause rang out, and Song Qingge's cool eyes stared directly at the employees.

Amidst the applause, one could detect a hint of listlessness and dejection.

She asked calmly, "Have you been feeling a lot of pressure lately, or complaining about the frequent overtime work?"

After he finished speaking, the conference room fell silent.

The employees stole glances at each other, heads down, afraid that their boss would see them.

Who dares to say that?

How can anyone work overtime without complaining?

But no one would be bold enough to cricket in front of the boss.

The male employee on the far right of the first row raised his hand high and said in a firm voice, "We are willing to work overtime! Overtime helps us improve!"

That's obviously not the truth.

If it weren't for the money, which would allow her to accumulate energy and enhance her spiritual power, Song Qingge wouldn't want to run around doing chores.

Even cattle and horses can go crazy.

Sang Shunian, puzzled, whispered, "Qingge, is this related to the paranormal incident we're trying to solve?"

It wasn't that he disliked Song Qingge inquiring about the company's business and requests for funds, but wasn't the most urgent matter to resolve those strange issues?

Why did you suddenly start asking about the employees' work?

Song Qingge replied coldly, "Yes."

Sang Shunian didn't understand.

Overtime work and the supernatural... how did they get together?

"Boss Sang, could you please step out for a moment?" Song Qingge's clear voice was neither too loud nor too soft: "All employees, come in one row. I have some questions I need to confirm with you all individually."

Although puzzled, Sang Shunian did as instructed and led the other employees to wait outside the conference room.

The remaining ten employees are in the first row.

They stood in a line, their hands awkwardly folded and hanging down in front of them, stealing glances at the beautiful woman opposite them.

I couldn't help but sigh.

This young lady is not only beautiful, but also a wealthy woman!

But they dared not say more of this, for fear of being caught and questioned about the previous issue.

Song Qingge leaned back comfortably in her chair and raised her finger slightly.

The yellow talisman circled the employees at a speed that was barely visible to the naked eye.

When she asked the same question again, the employees gave completely opposite answers.

"The boss is such a workaholic. He makes us work like crazy. Sometimes it's really tiring, and I don't want to work overtime at all."

"Who wants to work overtime? The overtime pay isn't much, and sometimes there are no subways or buses to take home at night, so the taxi fare is more expensive than the overtime pay."

"Who understands? The boss is a really nice guy, but the pain of being a workaholic? It's too much, the boss loves his job too much."

She used the same method on the remaining four groups of employees, and almost everyone opened up.

Although making the Truth Talisman consumed some spiritual energy, the merits accumulated and the power gained beforehand were enough to quickly restore the spiritual energy.

Moreover, the quality of her spiritual energy is now very high. The amount consumed is half of what it used to be, but the number of talismans she can make is twice that of before.

The accumulation of merit has a significant effect on enhancing spiritual power.

She needs to keep up the good work and do more!

Outside the office, employees whispered among themselves:

"Did you tell the truth? That's strange, I definitely didn't want to say it."

"Me too! I just blurted out the truth as soon as I went in."

Most of the employees felt the same way, but they only concluded that the beautiful young lady had such a strong aura that she intimidated them into speaking their true feelings, without thinking about anything more mysterious.

Song Qingge had a basic understanding of the source of the strange events, so she asked Sang Shunian to take her to the company's network management room.

As she walked through the corridor, the glaring lights came into view again. Song Qingge gently raised two fingers, and the golden thread silently merged into the light.

The saturation of the light suddenly decreased by one degree.

My eyes feel much better now.

She slowly explained the cause of the strange events to Sang Shunian and the employees: "Your auditory hallucinations and surrounding visions all stem from the internet and working overtime..."
