Excessive ferocity due to caution

After Sun Wei finished speaking, her facial expression gradually disappeared.

He walked stiffly to the office door and into the pitch-black corridor.

Inside the office, the group waited for a long time, but Sun Wei did not reappear. Then, one of the bolder employees ran up and slammed the office door shut!

squeak-

boom!

The door closed, the chilly wind outside disappeared, and everyone in the room immediately felt much more relaxed.

Brain matter and blood remained on the ground.

The others carefully avoided the area, and the employee who had closed the door, still shaken, said:

"Are you all... just extras?"

A chubby man raised his hand and said hesitantly:

"I'm not..."

"I am an E-level actor."

After he finished speaking, everyone in the office fell silent.

What's the real difference between an E-level actor and an extra...?

Now, aren't we still stuck in the same predicament?

"actually……"

The chubby man spoke up again at this point:

"If we stay in the office tonight and don't go out, there shouldn't be any problems."

"After all... as long as I don't break the company rules, I should be able to survive, right?"

The other employees looked at each other blankly.

Whether they agreed with the fat man or not, at least their expressions had improved a lot.

Everyone was silent for a while, and the office felt strangely cold.

A female employee glanced at the wide-open window, then went over to close it.

But when she got to the window, she stopped in her tracks.

Through the transparent glass, the female employee saw a large pickup truck drive up to the entrance of the 2188 Building.

The security guards below are helping to load... the bodies.

Yes.

They are loading bodies.

Moreover, there was a very conspicuous corpse among them. The female employee could see it clearly; it was Xiao Qi, who had died in the public restroom on the third floor during the day!

Because his body was made into the shape of a flower.

It is easy to identify.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yi, who was in the staff dormitory on the second floor, was also looking at the situation at the entrance of the 2188 Building through the window.

His eyesight was better than the female employee in office C301, and he was closer. Zhao Yi noticed a familiar logo deliberately displayed on the pickup truck driver's clothes...

That symbol is the identity emblem of researchers at the Skull Church Asylum!

"Why are people from the Skull Church here?"

"Could it be that the entertainment company has partnered with the Skull Church?"

Zhao Yi stroked his chin, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

Chaotic Realm Entertainment Co., Ltd. has never had a fixed stance, nor has it had any major grudges with giants in the capital like the Church or the Fifth Federation. Therefore, Zhao Yi would not be surprised if the entertainment company cooperated with either the Church or the Fifth Federation.

What intrigued him was why the church's shelter would transport corpses from the 2188 Tower.

Aren't those corpses killed by ghosts?

Zhao Yi moved a little closer.

According to his observations, the bodies transported onto the pickup trucks were mostly in strange ways.

Most of them were made into bizarre works of art.

"A person killed by a demon is just an ordinary corpse. Even if it's manipulated into various shapes, it would never be considered valuable for research by the Church of the Skull..."

"Think about it another way, maybe what killed these people in Building 2188...wasn't just a ghost?"

"Supernatural movies... Supernatural phenomena include ghosts, but a mere ghost doesn't represent the supernatural..."

"There must be some special secret inside the 2188 Building..."

Just as Zhao Yi was pondering, the driver responsible for loading the bodies at the entrance of the building seemed to realize something and looked towards Zhao Yi's window.

But there was only a dark blue curtain there.

The driver shook his head, closed the back compartment where the body was stored, then opened the door, plopped himself in, stepped on the gas, and the car sped off, leaving a trail of dust behind...

Just then, a dark figure suddenly appeared from nowhere and fled towards the building entrance!

He's an actor!

Upon witnessing this scene, both the female employee on the 3rd floor and some employees who were secretly peeking from the staff dormitory on the 2nd floor became excited!

How could someone be so bold as to try to rush out of the building?

Be brave!

Their eyes were fixed on the dark figure rushing toward the building's main entrance!

Ten steps...

Five steps...

Security personnel spotted him, shouted at him to stop, and tried to apprehend the actor!

However, the actor reacted extremely quickly, immediately launching a sliding tackle!

That was a beautiful dribble!

He swiftly leaped out from under the security guard's legs and ran out the door!

Everyone was stunned at that moment!

He... he really escaped!

They escaped so easily?!

No way?

Just as everyone was stunned... something unexpected happened!

The actor who escaped the building didn't continue running; instead, he suddenly stopped in place, motionless like a wooden puppet...

Ten seconds later, he suddenly turned around and reached out his hand towards the building!

Under the bright lights of the security room at the main gate, those peeping from the staff dormitory saw that the actor's face was contorted with extreme terror...

It was as if I had seen something extremely terrifying...

Then, his body fell to the ground like building blocks, turning into a pool of blood and countless neatly arranged chunks of flesh...

he died.

Inside the staff dormitory, Zhao Yi completely closed the curtains this time.

Things turned out exactly as he expected.

What do I need to escape the 2188 Building?

Otherwise, even if someone gets out, they'll still die!

But I've finished my work for today, it's time to rest.

He remained calm, set an alarm on his phone, and then turned off the lights to go to sleep.

...

"Ye Zhi, what's wrong?"

In C301, someone noticed something was wrong with the female employee at the window and immediately raised a question.

In this environment, they were all made somewhat nervous!

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhi snapped out of her daze, closed the window and curtains, and shook her head, saying:

"It's nothing... I just saw someone outside going into the building to pretend to be a corpse..."

People were no longer so concerned about the strange things happening at the company.

At this moment, they were even more worried about their own safety!

As long as Ye Zhi is alright, then there's not much of a problem.

These people were afraid that Ye Zhi had just gone to the window to look out and then disappeared... That would really scare them to death!

The group continued chatting idly in the office to pass the time and alleviate their boredom and loneliness.

Of course, there is another, deeper reason—

The few people remaining in the office were doing everything they could to avoid a fatal question that none of them wanted to face.

That is... the company's second rule!

They absolutely must not fall asleep in the office!

P.S.: I'm going to take a shower. If I feel good when I come back, I'll write a little more. If I don't feel good, I'll go to sleep!

I've broken my promise again. I'd like to apologize to everyone by bowing three times in advance!

Bang Bang Bang!

good night!
