Excessive ferocity due to caution

The sunlight, accompanied by its scorching heat, created a wave of waves in the air.

Come on.

It's unbearably hot.

As Zhao Yi exhaled and his consciousness returned to this body, he felt an unprecedented weakness.

His physical strength was not only reset, but he was also much weaker than a normal young man.

Spiritual power was also isolated by a supreme force.

In the movie, he has completely become a different person!

Zhao Yi glanced at the clock on the desk.

It is 7 a.m.

The temperature inside the office has reached 36 degrees Celsius.

No wonder it's so hot.

Sweating profusely, Zhao Yi immediately conducted a brief assessment of his new, weakened body—

1. Thin and weak with limited strength.

2. There is no heatstroke at present.

3. The body is generally on the verge of a sub-healthy state. In this case, the body is very fragile, and it will get sick if it is exposed to any strong external stimuli!

For example, getting caught in the rain, sitting in front of an air-conditioned room on a hot day, or talking to a colleague with a cold without wearing a mask...

However, his eyesight is quite good, and his mental state is currently quite good, so he can continue working for a while.

Because of his slender build, he was still quite agile.

After quickly assessing himself, Zhao Yi secretly set several prohibited actions for himself, and then he began to observe his surroundings—

This office is quite large, with a total of 20 colleagues inside.

The two floor-standing air conditioners were not turned on.

One was right next to him.

Since this film was produced by an entertainment company and the game system was not involved, the actors could not distinguish between actors and NPCs unless they knew each other beforehand.

The Evil Eye is unusable.

Even the darkest personality could not be contacted.

In this supernatural movie, everyone is completely reduced to an unhealthy mortal!

"The only goal of these supernatural movies in the 'rule-based' genre is to escape the 2188 Building... It sounds easy at first glance."

He turned his gaze from the window to the outside.

There are security guards at the entrance of the building.

But the security guard didn't have a gun, only a stick.

Moreover, they are few in number.

If these security guards were normal human beings, it would be difficult for them to stop the employees from fleeing.

"As a supernatural film, it's not that simple. To truly leave Building 2188, you must need some special 'token'."

"Otherwise, you'll either die if you go out, or you won't be able to get out at all."

Zhao Yi quickly made a judgment.

On the birchwood desk, besides a thermometer, there was a cell phone and a special electronic countdown clock.

This electronic clock is used to detect employees' working hours.

The electronic clock only starts counting down when an employee is sitting at their desk.

The employee's dormitory door will only be unlocked after the 16-hour period is reset, allowing the employee to enter their dormitory to rest.

Employees working in the 2188 Building usually eat and live at the company.

I never leave this building except for annual leave.

Zhao glanced at the clock, then quickly turned his gaze back to the smartphone.

Based on the rules, this phone should absolutely not be used to contact anyone outside the company while inside the office.

He picked up his phone and unlocked it with his fingerprint.

Opening the contact list, besides family members, there were indeed many phone numbers of colleagues inside the 2188 Building.

This might be a way for the actors involved to help each other.

Of course, choosing to seek help from others also carries many risks.

After all... you have no idea whether these contacts are actors or NPCs within the company.

When you and others plan to escape from the company, the other party may directly report you.

Once the chat history is sent...

Who knows what will happen?

Since it's a supernatural movie, there must be ghosts inside the 2188 Building.

What if the ghost is a high-ranking company executive? Wouldn't that mean instant death?

Zhao Yi would never do something so foolish.

He turned on his phone, mainly for another matter.

Zhao Yi found Meng Cunhua, the company's general manager, among the contacts and made a phone call to him.

zizi——

The phone didn't ring; instead, it emitted an unpleasant static.

Half a minute later, Meng Cunhua answered the phone.

"Feed?"

Zhao Yi began to speak:

"Manager Meng, I am Zhao Yi, an employee of office C301. I would like to request a change of work location."

Meng Cunhua did not get angry, but instead earnestly advised him:

"Xiao Zhao... It's normal for young people to be impetuous."

"In our line of work, you have to be able to endure loneliness. What difference does it make where you work?"

"I know it's hot now, but as the saying goes, a calm mind brings coolness. You should focus your energy more on your work..."

"Besides, I remember your office should have air conditioning, right?"

Zhao Yi glanced at the thermometer on the table.

Good guy.

It's 37 degrees Celsius.

Based on this trend, the indoor temperature is likely to rise above 40 degrees Celsius between 12 noon and 4 pm.

"Manager, you're absolutely right, there is air conditioning in the office..."

"I'm not hot, not hot at all..."

Zhao Yi picked up his clothes and wiped the sweat from his brow.

"I just want to give this position to other colleagues who are sensitive to the heat, so that everyone's work efficiency can be improved, and the company's value will be greater!"

Upon hearing this, Meng Cunhua's mindset underwent a subtle change.

Um... for the company.

It seems like changing his position wouldn't be a bad idea.

After all, changing locations isn't a big deal... it's just moving a computer.

"Alright, there should still be empty seats in your office. Pick one yourself... Normally, the company would charge 200 yuan for this kind of service, but since you're so concerned about the company's future development, I'll just charge you 100 yuan and deduct it from your salary."

Zhao slightly raised his eyelids and replied in a grateful tone:

"Thank you, Steward Meng!"

After patiently waiting for the other party to hang up, Zhao began to pack his things.

I'm not staying here because it's right in front of the air conditioner.

The office air conditioning is set to start based on the room temperature. When the room temperature is above 38 degrees Celsius, both air conditioners will turn on.

The temperature displayed above is a fixed 23 degrees Celsius for the cold air.

In an environment of 38 degrees Celsius, the human body will begin to sweat profusely in order to maintain a normal body temperature.

At this time, if they were to be directly exposed to a cold wind of 23 degrees Celsius, even a strong man would likely be in trouble, let alone this group of half-sick people on the verge of sub-health.

Upon seeing Zhao Yi move out, someone in the office immediately moved to Zhao Yi's spot, giving him a mocking look and winking, seemingly laughing at Zhao Yi for giving up such a prime location.

"One wrong step leads to another..."

As the other person was moving the computer, they deliberately bumped into Zhao Yi as they passed by, and said sarcastically:

"Such a good start, and you've ruined it."

"I feel so sorry for you..."

Zhao Yi didn't respond. He sat in his seat and began to take stock of the preparations he needed to make to ensure the smooth completion of the process today.

Many people in the office were staring at this spot.

Some of the more thoughtful people looked at the employee who had taken Zhao Yi's place with pity in their eyes.

Then, the employee who had grabbed the seat also called the manager.

However, his actions of acting first and asking questions later had already been recorded by the cameras.

This wouldn't normally be a big deal.

However, given Zhao Yi's humility and understanding, this employee seemed rather utterly wicked in Meng Cunhua's eyes.

So, to his utter bewilderment, Meng Cunhua deducted 500 yuan from his salary.

All their employees only earn 6000 a month.

The rules state that their wages cannot be zeroed out before they escape from Building 2188.

In other words, this 6000 yuan salary... is like another lifeline for them!
