Chapter 107: Chapter 97: The Dark and Windy Night for Slaying Pigs! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]_2

Mu Rufeng immediately went to the window and observed the outside.

At this moment, the heavy rain had receded, leaving complete darkness all around.

There was no sound coming from outside.

Instantly, Mu Rufeng blinked and appeared outside the pigsty.

Soon after, Mu Rufeng returned to the entrance of his dormitory.

“Ah, right, I almost forgot.”

Mu Rufeng suddenly remembered something, hesitated for a moment, then made a round about the residential area, and came to the other side.

The residential area was not inhabited just by them.

The Abnormality lived over here.

Mu Rufeng quietly checked and found that the Abnormality who lived in the dormitory were also not there, presumably having followed the Factory Director to catch pigs.

Mu Rufeng glanced at the room number, looked inside through the window, then, with Instantaneous Movement, entered it.

Minutes later, Mu Rufeng left the place.

Ring ring ring~~~!

The alarm clock sounded inside the Butcher’s dormitory.

Mu Rufeng was naturally woken by it, and the first thing he did upon awakening was to turn off the alarm.

The time was already 7:20 in the morning.

There were still forty minutes until work started.

After washing his face with mineral water and rinsing his mouth, Mu Rufeng got dressed in his work clothes and apron and then left the house.

Outside, there was still no one around.

However, there were some noises from the cafeteria.

As soon as Mu Rufeng walked into the cafeteria, he saw Liu Hao and three others sitting at a table in the corner.

They had probably woken up before seven and left the moment it struck seven.

So, the four of them huddled together, and as for Mu Rufeng, sorry, knocking on the door probably hadn’t woken him up.

Apart from Liu Hao and his group, several Abnormalities were having breakfast as well.

Liu Hao noticed Mu Rufeng’s arrival and immediately waved at him, indicating for him to come over.

From his expression, it seemed he had quite a bit of information to share.

Mu Rufeng nodded at him and then went to the counter.

“Mr. Mu, you’re here? Take a look, what would you like to eat this morning?” the cafeteria auntie asked with a smile, handing over a menu.

“Give me a bowl of mixed beef rice noodles, another bowl of fish noodles, and five fried dough sticks and five large meat buns,” said Mu Rufeng.

“No need for change.” Mu Rufeng pulled out a hundred yuan and placed it on the counter.

Just as the cafeteria auntie was about to start calculating the cost, she instantly retracted her words and grabbed the hundred yuan banknote, “Thank you, sir, please wait a moment, it will be ready shortly.”

After ordering his meal, Mu Rufeng walked over to the table where Liu Hao and others were sitting and found an empty seat next to them.

“I’ve found a clue, today we might just clear the stage,” Liu Hao said excitedly as soon as Mu Rufeng sat down.

“Oh? What clue did you find?” Mu Rufeng asked.

“The Security Guard, the night shift one, he knows where your Pig Slaughter Blade is and who stole it.”

“He lives on the other side of us, I’ll go find him later,” Liu Hao said excitedly.

Mu Rufeng looked at Liu Hao’s excited face and he didn’t know why, but he still preferred Liu Hao’s previous arrogant and annoying demeanor.

At least that was genuine.

This current everyone-is-happy facade made Mu Rufeng somewhat uncomfortable.

“Oh,” Mu Rufeng nodded.

“How did you know which Security Guard had this information?” Mei Xizi suddenly asked.

She was quite interested in this matter.

No choice, since the Pig Slaughter Blade had appeared in her dormitory.

Of course, she wasn’t panicking at all now, since the blade had been returned to its original owner, and even the witness Liu Hao had mentioned had been dealt with.

“Hehe, I found the night shift Security Guard’s duty log,” Liu Hao said proudly.

“Security Guard duty log?” Mei Xizi said softly.

“Yes, the duty log written by the night shift Security Guard himself. It recorded that stealthy employees had stolen the Pig Slaughter Blade and hid it somewhere.”

“As long as I ask that night shift Security Guard, I can pinpoint the thief.”

“Today is just the first day, and I might achieve a hundred percent success rate, haha!” Liu Hao said, laughing.

“Why do you think you can get the information you want from that Security Guard?” Mei Xizi asked again.

“Don’t you guys remember my ability?” Liu Hao said with a light smile.

Everyone suddenly understood when they heard the words. Yeah, it was quite easy to gather information using Gambling Ghost’s ability, of course, only if you could win.

“Right, something big happened at the pigsty last night,” Tang Hao suddenly said.

“Something big? What happened?” Mu Rufeng asked curiously.

“I heard it from those Abnormalities; it seems quite a few pigs died.”

“Yes, at least dozens of them. The Factory Director seemed to have come back.”

“Mm-hmm, the grown pig that escaped wasn’t caught either. Now there’s another issue in the pigsty. I heard the Factory Director is almost going mad.”

A few of them also chimed in.

“Management is having a meeting right now. Looks like our job is going to get tougher from now on. Everyone needs to be careful. As soon as you complete the level, return immediately; don’t be greedy,” Mu Rufeng advised.

Mei Xizi and the others, hearing this, said nothing but nodded heavily.

Indeed, with the incident at the pigsty, besides Liu Hao, it affected Mei Xizi and the other two as well.

Mei Xizi also didn’t know how these pigs died; she prayed it wasn’t due to some disease.

It was then that the canteen lady came over with Mu Rufeng’s rice noodle soup, beef offal noodle soup, large pork buns, and fried dough sticks.

“Mr. Mu, enjoy your meal. If it’s not enough, just let me know.”

“Mm,” Mu Rufeng nodded and then looked at Mei Xizi and the others,

“Here, I ordered each of you a large pork bun and a fried dough stick. Eat up,” Mu Rufeng said.

“Really… really?” Luo Jing was somewhat incredulous.

They too craved fried dough sticks and large pork buns, but at ten yuan each, they hesitated.

After all, there was free plain porridge and pickled vegetables, albeit bland and tasteless, but still filling… which was challenging… because they weren’t provided unlimitedly, only one bowl and a small dish of pickles were available.

So, they stared intently at Mu Rufeng’s two servings of noodles, large pork buns, and fried dough sticks.

“Of course, eat up, don’t be shy,” Mu Rufeng said with a smile.

“Haha, thanks, bro. Then I won’t hold back,” Liu Hao, already starving, grabbed a pork bun and a fried dough stick and started munching hungrily.

The others were more or less the same.

At that moment, they felt the taste of the porridge in their bowls had improved a lot.

Seven to eight minutes later, everyone finished their meal and prepared to head to the pigsty together to check out the situation.

Even Mu Rufeng wanted to see what followed.

…

When the group arrived in front of the pigsty.

They saw a truck parked at the entrance.

Seven or eight Abnormalities were continuously loading pigs onto the truck, pigs which had been beheaded the previous night.

Beside the truck, Pig Head Factory Director stood, his face grim.

Behind him stood two other Abnormalities, looking like they were chilled to the bone.

They were the Pigsty Manager Bai and the Slaughterhouse Manager Fang.

There were also several off-duty employees standing around watching.

At that moment, the mood of the Pig Head Factory Director was extremely bad. When he saw Mu Rufeng and the others arriving, his expression grew even darker.

Pig Head Factory Director turned his head to look at Manager Bai and Manager Fang.

“Remember, if there are any more mistakes next time, you two will be in the cages acting as pigs,” the Pig Head Factory Director said coldly.

“Yes… yes, Director!”

Both nodded as if chilled to the bone.

Then, Pig Head Factory Director turned to look at Mu Rufeng: “The escape of that grown pig wasn’t your fault or any of the employees’; it was my negligence as the director.”

“To compensate for the loss, I’ve decided to use my own savings to buy a batch of pigs that are almost ready for slaughter outside, so our pig farm could meet this month’s performance targets.”

“This way, none of your bonuses will be deducted.”

“Thank you, Director.”

“Director, you’re really too good to us.”

“Boohoo, the Director is really too kind.”

As Pig Head Factory Director spoke, the surrounding employees became tearfully grateful.

You should know that their monthly bonus averaged around two thousand yuan each.

Two thousand yuan, which was quite a significant amount for them, and getting it back was indeed a relief.

“You guys work hard; today’s workload might be a bit more.”

“Butcher, especially your task, is the most important,” Pig Head Factory Director said.

“Understood, Director, I promise to complete the task!” Mu Rufeng responded.

“Alright, don’t crowd around here anymore; it’s almost time to go to work,” Pig Head Factory Director shouted to everyone.

Hearing this, the Abnormalities immediately dispersed, those who were resting continued to rest, and those who were working went to work.
