CHAPTER 17 A corpse covered in dirt

"So the current situation is that you are fired?"

Seeing the girl holding such a large storage box, Bai Mo quickly guessed the other party's situation.

Mo Qingcheng didn't expect to meet Bai Mo here. He suddenly recalled the desperate experience in the Buyu Village, and complicated emotions surged in his heart.

She was in a low mood, but she couldn't help but tilt her head and said stubbornly: "I fired the company."

Fired the company?

Bai Mo was amused. This statement was quite new. He thought about it and sighed: "No wonder you said you were homeless. You have been living in the company before, right?"

"Yeah, it's not..." Mo Qingcheng was stunned. Unexpectedly, the other party was still thinking about these words, and said with a guilty conscience, "Actually, I have a place to live..."

She had not forgotten the scene in front of her when the man in front of her scared off the monster in the Silent Village, so she appeared to be particularly honest.

Bai Mo looked at the girl with a half-smile but said comfortingly: "It's okay. Unemployment is not a big deal. At most, I'm just a homeless person... Me too, I just want to give myself a holiday."

"..."

Even though he knew these were words of comfort, they still sounded strange. Mo Qingcheng opened his mouth and asked doubtfully: "But aren't you a tombkeeper? Why did you become a homeless person?"

"The situation is complicated and it's a long story, so I won't go into details."

Bai Mo sighed slightly and had no explanation. He couldn't tell Mo Qingcheng that he had forgotten where to go to ask for his salary... It would be too embarrassing.

The girl nodded, but she had a firm idea in her heart. The identity of the tombkeeper was really just a cover for Bai Mo to the outside world, and his true identity could never be that simple...

If not, Lu Zhan would never have said so many words to her yesterday, nor would he have repeatedly emphasized that she should not reveal any information related to the restricted area to Bai Mo.

"Why are you holding such a big box? Why don't you put it on the ground? I can help you pick it up."

Her arms were suddenly empty, and the girl's thoughts were interrupted. She was stunned. Just when she was about to say thank you, she heard a voice from behind.

"Get out! Don't stay at the door and affect our company's image."

Looking back, I saw He Lanlan and a man carrying a camera standing at the door of the company. He Lanlan was smiling, and the man was looking at her impatiently.

Mo Qingcheng recognized him. This guy's name was Wang Da. He was the most powerful photographer in the Changyuan Company and a genetic warrior. He was injected with high-energy genetic medicine produced by Xinhai Group. His physical fitness has reached the D level, and his legs have been strengthened.

Since the abilities of extraordinary people are changeable, it is difficult to analyze and compare their combat power in a unified way. Therefore, the current classification of extraordinary people's strength is more reflected in their physical fitness.

Level E, the strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, and can often reach 1,700 kilograms to 2,500 kilograms.

Level D, the strength is further improved and it can evade conventional thermal weapons such as pistols to a certain extent.

Level C can effectively avoid hot weapons and even confront them head-on, but it is still difficult to deal with heavy sniper rifles.

Level B, this level of extraordinary being is difficult to define. Their speed and power are beyond ordinary people's understanding. Their biggest feature is that their sixth sense has been greatly increased, and their perception of danger is extremely sharp, making it difficult to be targeted by sniper rifles.

Unless you are the most skilled sniper, or the enemy uses a special sniper rifle, a powerful B-class transcendent can even withstand sniper bullets.

As for A-class and even S-class above B-class, these are already inaccessible to ordinary people. They are so rare that they are difficult to see on TV.

However, even if you have never seen it, there is one thing that everyone agrees on...

Every A-level transcendent has the ability to subvert a city.

The emergence of genetic medicines has made it possible for ordinary people to touch the extraordinary realm. So far, there are only more than thirty companies in the entire alliance that can develop and produce genetic medicines, and Xinhai Group is the leader among them.

Xinhai Group's genetic medicine has almost no toxic side effects, has outstanding potential development effects, and can also perform targeted enhancement of a certain function of the user's body. It is the most ideal upgrade medicine in the eyes of many people.

Because of this, Xinhai Group's genetic medicines are very rare. They are often ordered by big shots before they are produced. They are expensive, and the difficulty is that even if you have money, you can't find a way to buy them.

Unless you are an internal employee of Xinhai Group, you will have the opportunity to be the first to receive a potion.

Not only that, given the current situation, in addition to serving in relevant departments such as the Forbidden Exclusion Bureau, most extraordinary people will choose to join group companies that mainly focus on exploring the forbidden areas.

As one of the top large groups in Dongyang City, Xinhai Group's status is similar to that of the Transcendental Sect in novels. Being able to join means an improvement in status and good remuneration and benefits.

In some cases, the names of these groups are more useful than the anti-banning bureau.

Mo Qingcheng had heard that due to some coincidence, Wang Da had obtained two genetic medicines from the Xinhai Group. He was well aware of the benefits of such medicines, so he had been planning how to obtain subsequent medicines.

And now, everyone knows that He Lanlan has got a place to enter the Xinhai Group...

It's no wonder that Wang Da, who has always been arrogant, would suddenly kneel down and lick He Lanlan. He obviously wanted to get the qualification to purchase genetic medicine.

It is worth mentioning that at the same level, extraordinary people are still in a transcendent position, completely crushing genetic warriors of the same level.

The former not only has the same terrifying physical fitness, but also has various weird abilities, which obviously cannot be compensated by genetic medicine. However, it is said that recent research is moving closer in this regard...

In just one breath, Mo Qingcheng thought of many things. She didn't try to say anything, turned around and left.

Bai Mo glanced at the two of them, and without any troublesome thoughts, he followed them with the box in his arms.

"orange."

At this moment, He Lanlan suddenly spoke.

Mo Qingcheng turned around and saw He Lanlan saying with regret: "I hope you don't blame the company. After all, what you did is indeed against the professional ethics of journalists."

Seeing that Mo Qingcheng was indifferent, He Lanlan sneered in her heart, but stopped talking and pretended to be embarrassed.

"There's something I think I should tell you..." After a while, she sighed, "Mr. Li has already recorded your stains in the file, so I'm afraid no company will hire you as a reporter... even an ordinary reporter."

Mo Qingcheng looked slightly cold and still did not speak.

"Of course, you can also carry the camera and shoot by yourself. That way no one will stop you." Looking at the other party's expression, He Lanlan felt happy and pretended to be compassionate, "I have advised Mr. Li many times, but it's very difficult."

Feel sorry……"

Of course she knew that Mo Qingcheng's original wish when he came to the company was to be an ordinary reporter, but now, this woman has completely missed this profession.

Who told this woman to dare to mock her in public...

"I would like to ask, what does it mean to violate the professional ethics of journalists?"

At this moment, a confused voice sounded.

He Lanlan followed the sound and saw a handsome man with pale skin looking at her suspiciously, holding the storage box that originally belonged to Mo Qingcheng.

"Tch, a bitch deserves a pretty boy."

She was jealous in her heart and couldn't bear it on her face. She sighed and explained: "Actually, this can't be entirely blamed on Chengzi. She abandoned her companions including the photographer and did not dare to enter the forbidden area..."

Before she could say the words "forbidden zone", her scalp instantly went numb and she felt like she was being locked by some kind of terrifying aura.

Extraordinary ones...eliminate the forbidden game!

By the way, the new rules of City No. 3 - discussion of restricted areas and abnormal events outside the company is not allowed!

This guy wants to trick me. He deliberately wants me to mention the restricted area!

He Lanlan broke into a cold sweat. No matter whether this guy did it intentionally or not, she had a grudge against him.

Bai Mo was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself, you should continue talking, why didn't Mo Qingcheng dare to enter? Not to mention his poor acting skills, why did he suddenly change his face?

Also, I've seen the photographer. He was with Mo Qingcheng at the time, and didn't he leave in a hurry to go home...

Does this count as abandonment?

He turned his head and saw the girl next to him biting her lips and trembling slightly.

"Get out of here! You are not welcome here, and no filming company is willing to welcome you!"

Under the signal from He Lanlan's eyes, Wang Da spoke again, the muscles in his chest beating, full of threats.

He Lanlan's lips raised a smile and added: "By the way, Chengzi, although you are no longer an employee of the company, you still have to abide by the confidentiality agreement. Within three days, you cannot disclose information to any company or individual. Do you understand?"

"I know." Mo Qingcheng said expressionlessly, "I'm more shameless than you."

He Lanlan chuckled lightly, stared at Bai Mo for a moment, shook her head and said, "I think this guy is shameless."

Bai Mo was dumbfounded. Who did this woman call shameless? How did I offend her?

He put down the box and sneered: "Yes, I am shameless, but you don't look at how thick-skinned you are. Could it be that you picked up my face and put it on your head... Are you a fool?"

"

"puff!"

Mo Qingcheng, who had been sullen all the time, suddenly laughed out loud. This was the first time she had seen this kind of scolding routine that hurt the enemy a thousand times but hurt herself eight hundred times...

He Lanlan was furious. She couldn't understand what Bai Mo meant. Like Mo Qingcheng, this guy was clearly mocking her for wearing too much makeup!

They are indeed in the same group!

She was so angry that her teeth itched, but Mo Qingcheng and Mo Qingcheng didn't want to continue arguing with her, so they left quickly.

"It's time to go, Sister He. We still have to go to the restricted area to shoot footage." Wang Da on the side reminded him impatiently.

He Lanlan took a deep breath. She also knew the priority of the matter and nodded.



"This is probably what happened. The company deceived me into signing a contract, and added an illegal agreement that required me to unconditionally visit a dangerous place. The purpose was to steal the quota to enter the Xinhai Group."

"My brother worked hard to get that quota. He also damaged his body because of it. As a result, the rescue was ineffective..."

After listening to Mo Qingcheng explain the cause and effect, Bai Mo fell silent.

"My condolences." He could only console him.

"I'm fine." Mo Qingcheng shook his head, then froze for a moment and asked doubtfully, "Do you believe what I say?"

"Why don't you believe it?" Bai Mo wondered, "I have seen you and the photographer together with my own eyes. The rumors are self-defeating."

He thought for a moment and asked, "Why don't you ask a photographer to testify?"

Mo Qingcheng's expression froze, and he whispered: "He, he went home..."

"Then just wait until he comes back to testify for you. I can also testify."

"Thank you, but no, I won't go back anyway."

"That's right." Bai Mo thought about it, and it was indeed true, and suggested, "Why don't you sue them? There is something wrong with their approach. I know the police officers in the police station, they are very reliable!"

Mo Qingcheng smiled bitterly: "There's no way to sue. In fact, it's nothing. It's not that I can't find a job, I just can't be a reporter..."

"Do you enjoy being a reporter?"

"I can't say I like it too much, I just think the process of exploring the truth is very meaningful."

After a pause, Mo Qingcheng continued, "The main reason is that I want to find some people I haven't seen for a long time, and the journalist profession is the most well-informed."

"I haven't seen you for a long time..."

Bai Mo was stunned for some reason and muttered to himself.

"If you can't be a reporter, you can still do other things, but finding people is relatively troublesome." Mo Qingcheng said with a smile, "As long as you keep doing it, I believe you can find them one day."

Looking at the other person's smile, Bai Mo seemed to be infected, and he also started laughing unconsciously.

"It will happen one day."

The two chatted all the way and came to a rental house.

"I'm here." Mo Qingcheng said softly. She wanted to walk a little longer, but when she saw the box in Bai Mo's arms, she was suddenly stunned.

Wait, I actually asked someone to help me move such a heavy box all the way? It took a full hour!

Her original plan was to take a taxi back...

"I'm sorry!" She apologized repeatedly, "I forgot it was you who was moving the boxes..."

"It's nothing, it doesn't weigh much." Bai Mo looked indifferent and even lifted the box casually, "I rarely go out, so I just do it for exercise."

"Really?" Mo Qingcheng breathed a sigh of relief, bowed deeply to Bai Mo, and said seriously, "Thank you."

Bai Mo was stunned: "Why are you thanking me?"

"There are many things, but in short I am very grateful."

Mo Qingcheng didn't explain. Just the fact that the other party saved her life was worth remembering for her whole life.

"You're welcome." Bai Mo smiled and said suddenly, "But when you are looking for a new job, you can help me keep an eye on it. I want to find a part-time job..."

Mo Qingcheng looked confused.

At this moment, two passers-by walked not far away.

Bai Mo's ears twitched and he heard someone whisper: "I'm telling you, the Sunshine Apartment on Nanshan Road is haunted!"

"Are you crazy? Don't talk about this!"

"First-hand news, do you want to listen or not?"

"Then...then keep your voice down."

"Let me tell you something. It is said that there is a corpse covered in mud in the Sunshine Apartment knocking on the door everywhere. Once someone opens the door..."

Bai Mo was fascinated by what he heard, but found that the two of them had already gone away.

Corpses covered in mud, sunny apartment...

He was thoughtful, declined Mo Qingcheng's lunch invitation, exchanged phone numbers, took a taxi and left.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the road.

When an old man walking birds saw this scene, his expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly hid in a corner and made a phone call.

"Army, someone just mentioned an abnormal event near the target, talking about a moving corpse..."

"What's the target number?"

"No. 6."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment.

"Where's the target?"

"It looks like we are going to the Sunshine Apartment on Nanshan Road."

"I see."

"This guy is really looking for corpses..."

In the police station office, Lu Zhan rubbed his eyebrows and said coldly, "Catch the two people who violated the rules and see if they did it on purpose. If so, kill them. If not..."

"Just cut off your tongue."

"……yes."

The uncle hung up the phone and couldn't help but shudder.
