Chapter 31: Chapter 31 meets the clearing conditions, countdown to return! [Please follow!]

“Your mistress died last night,” Manager Liu began.

“What? Impossible, Li Jiao is so capable, how could she have died?” Wang Kun said with disbelief.

“Didn’t you return to the east dormitory last night?” Instead of answering, Manager Liu asked.

“I… I had something to do last night and didn’t go back,” Wang Kun hesitated and replied.

“Heh, a fierce battle took place last night in the east dormitory, and the dormitory manager, Li Jiao, was killed.”

“Additionally, twelve employees were also affected and obliterated.”

“I think there are still more employee deaths to count, wouldn’t you agree, temp worker Mu Rufeng?”

Manager Liu suddenly changed her tone, her gaze falling upon Mu Rufeng.

Upon hearing this, Mu Rufeng simply smiled and said, “Manager Liu, I believe I haven’t violated any rules, right?”

“Not violated? Hmph, you destroyed the walls of rooms 302, 202, 402, and 304 and also caused a large number of cracks in the eastern dormitory’s side wall.”

“Due to this, the east dormitory is currently uninhabitable and urgently needs repairs.”

“Personnel relocation, wall repairs… All in all, you’ve caused our group losses amounting to tens of millions,” Manager Liu rebuked sternly.

“Huh? That doesn’t seem right, Manager Liu. You said it was caused by me, do you have any evidence?”

“Also, strictly speaking, wasn’t it the dormitory manager herself who exploded that caused all this?”

“I live right next door in room 301; if the door hadn’t been robust, I wouldn’t be able to be here right now,” Mu Rufeng said with a light smile.

“Heh, heh, heh! Fake, it’s all fake, you’re tricking me, right?” Wang Kun suddenly laughed, completely disbelieving the situation.

Manager Liu glanced at Wang Kun and let out a cold laugh, “You think I’m lying? Why don’t you check your ID badge yourself?”

“You’ve already been delayed here for a few minutes, and I think Supervisor Lu will ‘properly’ assign your duties.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Kun hurriedly grabbed the badge hanging on his chest.

It read:

[Employee Work Badge]

[Position: Alcohol Warehouse Stock Checker]

[Working Hours: 06:00 AM to 12:00 PM, 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM]

From originally being the deputy director of the Alcohol Warehouse, he’d been demoted to a mere stock checker.

Although he had been a stock checker before, how could it compare to the relatively relaxing role of deputy director?

“Manager Liu, what on earth is going on? What exactly happened to Li Jiao?” At this moment, Wang Kun’s face was filled with horror.

“I remember that Supervisor Lu dislikes late employees the most,” Manager Liu didn’t answer but mockingly reminded instead.

“You….” Wang Kun didn’t dare to say more and quickly sprinted towards the warehouse.

Regardless, his own ghost qi was what mattered most.

“Manager Liu, the ‘Li Jiao’ Wang Kun was talking about, is she the dormitory manager?” Mu Rufeng suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Manager Liu turned her head towards Mu Rufeng but didn’t speak. In the next moment, she advanced, closing the distance to Mu Rufeng in the blink of an eye.

A burst of fragrance assaulted his nostrils, filling Mu Rufeng’s nose.

It must be said, the scent was quite pleasant, even if mixed with a faint smell of decay.

“Manager Liu, what are you doing?” Mu Rufeng felt Manager Liu was too close and quickly stepped back.

Unexpectedly, Manager Liu pressed even closer than before, her face coming up to Mu Rufeng’s neck.

Mu Rufeng could clearly feel Manager Liu’s cool breath.

“Manager Liu, don’t come over, I’m not that kind of person,” Mu Rufeng took a few more steps back, pretending to be frightened.

“A strong scent, you are definitely a living person, and your flesh smells great, without a trace of ghost qi.”

“Although I don’t know how you killed Li Jiao, you undoubtedly broke the rules,” Manager Liu slowly said.

“Oh? Then Manager Liu, please tell me, which rules did I break?” Mu Rufeng asked calmly.

“First, you broke the no fighting rule, and you killed many employees.”

“Second, you broke the rule against damaging public property, causing significant financial loss to my group.”

Manager Liu listed the broken rules one by one.

Upon hearing this, Mu Rufeng laughed, “First of all, that was after work hours, when did I not recall that there are rules against fighting after hours?”

“Second, damaging public facilities, causing significant losses, wasn’t that the work of dormitory manager Li Jiao? Why are you coming after me? Or do you have evidence?”

“No, you probably don’t have any evidence, right? Otherwise, why would Manager Liu be talking to me so nicely here?” Mu Rufeng said.

“You are quite meticulous. Here’s your employee badge, you’re officially hired,” Manager Liu handed him a badge.

Mu Rufeng was slightly stunned and looked down at his temporary work badge on his chest.

However, his chest was already bare, devoid of any temporary work badge.

When Mu Rufeng held the official work badge in his hand, a notification sound rang in his mind.

“Congratulations, player has successfully become a regular employee, initiating the instance returning mission, please earn a hundred soul coins to meet the instance clearance condition.”

“Ding! It has been detected that the player has earned 2178 soul coins, meeting the instance clearance condition.”

“Return countdown 179, 178, 177, 176… PS: You can return immediately.”

A series of notifications slightly bewildered Mu Rufeng.

When Mu Rufeng came to his senses, he was overjoyed.

Being officially hired meant that the task to clear the instance was now available.

And the task to earn a hundred soul coins was practically instantly completed.

Three minutes, he could return to the real world after a three-minute countdown.

“Manager Liu, I’m very curious, what exactly happened with Wang Kun and Li Jiao?”

While waiting to return, Mu Rufeng eagerly asked.

In the end, Manager Liu did not answer Mu Rufeng’s question and left after handing over the work badge.

“Xiao Mu, you want to know? Hehe, that guy’s support is gone, I have no reservations now, I’ll tell you,” Sister Chunni came up at this moment.

“Okay, Sister Chunni, you’re the best,” Mu Rufeng immediately perked up, listening intently.

Soon, Mu Rufeng knew everything.

It turned out that Wang Kun was the third living player to enter this instance.

Wang Kun chose the role of a stock checker, which was also his actual job in the real world before he took on a management position.

At work, he made no mistakes, survived until the end of the workday, and even received his salary.

Then, when the dormitories were assigned, he was placed in the same dormitory as a brain ghost.

At night, due to a sudden fright that made him scream, he violated the rules and the brain ghost sucked his brain empty.

Consequently, Wang Kun died and became one of the abnormalities in this world.
