Altar of Infinity

Chapter 27 Zen and Ann's wish.

Zhang Ming may have discovered something.

Several possibilities flashed through Xie Ji's mind.

At this time, the voice of the columbarium system sounded again: "Announcing yesterday's most outstanding employee, Li Lan. Congratulations to Li Lan's employee for getting the opportunity to enter the cemetery today."

Li Lan……

Xie Ji remembered that Li Lan's job yesterday was in the morgue.

Xie Ji: "What are the rules for judging the best employees?"

Columbarium system: "Daily work completion, additional labor value, and other items."

Xie Ji: "Can you be more specific?"

The criteria for judging the best employees is not something that has to be kept secret, and the on-screen urn pops to the left, pulling out a huge table on the right.

"Daily work completion is full of 100 points. Employee Li Lan got 100 points for daily work yesterday. In addition to completing the daily work of the morgue, he also cleaned the morgue. His labor value is 20 points, which is higher than that of his teammate Li Rui. 18 points."

After explaining Li Lan's points, the columbarium continued.

"Employee Xie Ji received 100 points for his daily work yesterday, and eight additional files were investigated, with a labor value of 50*8, 400 points, and a total of 500 points.

"Employee Xie Ji successfully passed the morgue test last night and received an extra 300 points.

"Employee Xie Ji cracked the door lock of the morgue last night and forced his way in, deducting 100 points.

"Employee Xie Ji for disturbing the environment of the morgue last night, 100 points will be deducted.

"Employee Xie Ji destroyed a total of 54 remains to varying degrees last night, deducted 50*54, a total of 2700 points.

"Employee Xie Ji violated the regulations by eating in the morgue last night and deducted 100 points.

"The employee thanked you for sending yesterday's comprehensive score, -2200 points, which is the last among the remaining employees."

The bottom one, Xie Zhi: "..."

The faces of the onlookers followed the words of the columbarium system, and their expressions became more exciting every time, and no one cared about any outstanding employees.

Crack the lock on the morgue door? !

Destroy 54 remains? !

Still eating in the morgue? !

Just stand in the conference room full of vigor and lead the task? !

Is this person named Xie Ji still human? !

Especially Zhang Ming, he originally thought that the youth who beat him yesterday died in the morgue last night, but now it seems that he is very likely to be alive, and this is all because Xie Ji broke into the morgue last night, and... Made such a big mess!

Why is Xie Ji so rampant no matter in the real world or at the altar!

Xie Ji didn't pay attention to all kinds of eyes.

He has never won second place since he was a child, and it was the first time he was declared the bottom one in public.

Thinking of the excitement of last night, this brand new sense of experience made him raise his eyebrows with great interest.

There was still a large hole in the ceiling of the morgue, and the 54 corpses lost their vitality after six o'clock. They lay back on the cold mortuary bed again, and there was no complete piece of clothing. Wei Yan was better, only a pair of trousers.

If it can be rated as an excellent employee, it is a system bug.

Xie Ji accepted the score calmly, and indicated that he was okay in the continuous whispered discussion, then stood back in the team and formed a temporary group with Yao Shun's original teammates, waiting for today's work arrangement.

Arrangements will come down soon.

It is the information room.

The task on the first day was the management of the remains, the task on the second day was the registration of the remains, and today is the third day. Xie Ji originally wanted to go to the incineration room, but the system arranged for him to go to the information room.

It seems that the incinerator will have to wait.

No matter where, he must seize the opportunity to obtain clues.

Eighteen more corpses were sent in today. Xie Ji combined the information of the corpses in the morgue and the new corpses to search the Internet and corresponded to each person's file.

As he had guessed, more and more perpetrators appeared.

Jiang Jichu's corresponding corpse was Wei Yan, and today his corresponding corpse also appeared.

Xie Ji's current identity is the president of a certain company. A secretary next to him owed a large amount of foreign debt due to gambling. He accidentally learned about his affair with "Jiang Jichu" and reported them to Wei Yan.

At that time, Wei Yan was drinking with his friends outside, and when he got the news, he got drunk and drove to trouble "Jiang Jichu", but there was a car accident on the road, and he passed away on the way to the hospital.

Drunk driving is really bad.

Wei Yan had a car accident as soon as he got the news, and there was no time to give money to the secretary. When the secretary was being chased for debts, he ran away in a panic, accidentally fell from a tall building, and died on the spot.

Xie Ji rubbed his eyebrows.

He also hates betrayal.

His and Jiang Jichu's corresponding corpses have already appeared, and then they just need to find a chance to be cremated and sent to the cemetery to complete the task.

After eleven o'clock, as soon as Xie Ji stepped out of the door of the information room, Yao Shun rushed to look for him.

Yao Shun: "Thank you brother! Thank you brother!"

Xie Ji: "What's the matter, so urgent?"

Xie Ji left later to check things, and there was no one around at the moment, Yao Shun looked around and whispered: "Brother Jiang and I found the curator's dormitory room."

Ann's room?

Xie Ji: "Where's Jiang Jichu?"

Yao Shun: "Brother Jiang went first."

Xie Ji: "We will go too."

After discovering Ann's room, Yao Shun came to Xie Ji immediately, so when they arrived, Jiang Jichu hadn't finished searching.

Ann lives in the back of the dormitory. As the director of the funeral home, the size of the dormitory is not much larger than that of ordinary employees. There is only an extra kitchen. Because of the permanent residence, the layout inside is more in line with the style of single-person accommodation.

There was only one side-by-side dormitory bed, and a cold-style work desk was placed beside the bed. There was a lamp on it, but there were no work supplies such as computers or notebooks.

The room seemed to have been cleaned briefly, and personal items were packed in a mess. At first glance, there was no useful information to be found.

Jiang Jichu was standing by the window and raising the curtains, when he saw him coming, he only glanced at him, and continued to work.

Xie Ji greeted casually: "Did you find anything?"

Jiang Jichu: "There is a tablet under the pillow with not much information."

Xie Ji sat on the bed and started turning the tablet.

The desktop is the default pattern of the system, and there are two apps, photo album and Note, on it.

He first opened the photo album, which was full of work content, such as the design drawings of the funeral home.

There are some personal records in Note.

Jiang Jichu: "Judging from the diary, Ann is a very interesting technical geek who loves work and lives a monotonous life. She also has a partner named Zen by her side. However, Zen's information has not been disclosed. I only know that they have a good relationship."

The funeral home is almost fully automated, and several of their employees are forced in by the system, which means that there are only Ann and Zen in the funeral home.

Ann's wish must have something to do with Zen.

The funeral home is most likely to think of a corpse, but Xie Ji has not seen a corpse named Zen in the past two days.

Maybe it has a Chinese name?

Xie Ji went around the dormitory for a week, and finally sat down on the work chair in front of the desk.

Except for the extra kitchen, the specifications of this dormitory are the same as the one he lives in, and the extra things are very recognizable.

Table lamps, thermos cups, floor lamps, and two or three handicrafts.

He swirled the half glass of cold water in his glass.

Ann is not in the dormitory and will be away for at least three days.

The room was not cleaned by Ann herself, otherwise there would be half a glass of water left. If a normal person leaves by himself, even if he does not take the water glass, he will pour the water out.

In the same way, Ann's departure should be sudden.

After Ann left, the robot simply cleaned the room, but because it was not intelligent enough, it left clues for them.

Xie Ji: "I suddenly remembered something."

Jiang Jichu: "What?"

Xie Ji: "There is no sign at the door. You found out that this is Ann's dormitory. How did you get in?" The door must not be wide open.

Jiang Jichu: "Start looking at the end of the corridor, look at the traces at the door to see if anyone has lived there, and then...decipher it."

The door lock of the dormitory is a fingerprint code lock, which can also be accessed by swiping a card, which has a lower security level than the door locks of other workplaces.

But Jiang Jichu unexpectedly also has this kind of skill in the next three lanes.

Xie Ji smiled and said: "Yes, you are proficient in various skills, where did you learn it?"

Jiang Jichu: "My brother."

Xie Ji: "What's your brother's name?"

Jiang Jichu raised his eyes: "Did you check your household registration?"

Xie Ji: "Just asking, maybe we still know each other, and we are half brothers."

Jiang Jichu walked past Xie Ji with no expression on his face: "Don't flirt with relatives."

The three did not find any more clues after a carpet search in Ann's room, so they had to pack up and prepare to eat.

Xie Ji glanced at his watch.

Twelve forty.

The cafeteria is closed at this point.

He walked to the kitchen, and two of the three bulbs on top of his head were broken, and the only one left was also dying.

There are all kinds of seasonings on the shelves, all the pots and pans have been unpacked, and the refrigerator is still powered on. There are only two bundles of noodles on the fresh-keeping layer, and half of the unpacked bundles are left.

However, except for the salt, the seasoning is not used much, and the kitchen utensils can be sold as brand new except that they are not packaged.

Ann obviously has the desire to cook, but she hasn't practiced it too many times. It should be that she cooks noodles before the meal time, and she spends more time as a canteen professional.

Xie Ji said to Jiang Jichu and Yao Shun: "There are only noodles in the refrigerator, the simple version of noodles, do you want to eat them? Of course, it's okay if you don't eat them."

Yao Shun was not picky about food, and was even a little apprehensive. After seeing Xie Ji's skills last night, he regarded him as a god-man.

Not only did he survive from 54 corpses under the leadership of the god, but now he can still eat the noodles made by the god?

Yao Shun: "Eat, eat, eat! Brother Xie, let me help you!"

Jiang Jichu also said at the same time: "I'll help."

Xie Ji blocked both of them back.

Not to mention the small size of the kitchen, how can I help with the next noodle soup.

Although there are no other ingredients, Xie Ji has learned many kinds of sauces mixed with seasonings. After the noodles are cooked, the seasonings are poured over the oil and poured into the bowl.

He moved his nostrils slightly, the smell of spices had already come out, and the color was just right, just looking at it made people move their index fingers.

Jiang Jichu and Yao Shun helped take out the bowl, and the three of them gathered around the table and began to eat lunch.

Yao Shun was the first to move his chopsticks, enjoying the noodles before he swallowed them, slurred his words, and shook his thumb at Xie Ji.

"Brother Xie is amazing! It smells so good!"

Jiang Ji was always elegant when he first ate, and he started to eat after the chopsticks were cleaned.

When the taste of noodles exploded in his mouth, he stopped suddenly.

This pause lasted less than a second, and then he started to eat as if nothing had happened, and even drank the soup like Yao Shun.

Chapter 28 Taste, you were perfunctory to me last night, how do you want to answer now, I checked online, is there any friend with great powers?

After the meal, Yao Shun burped contentedly, and leaned on the back of the chair to express his gratitude and praise to Xie Ji: "As expected of Brother Xie, he can move the mortuary bed and go to the kitchen. I have seen his skills and cooking skills before. the top."

"Thank you," Xie Ji smiled, "I will trouble you this afternoon. After a while, I will go with you to find the columbarium system to change shifts."

Yao Shun: "Okay, Brother Xie, you can take a good rest in the afternoon, and I will work hard!"

There were still four or ten minutes before the meeting in the afternoon. It was too early now, and it was too late to do other things, so the three of them simply stayed in Ann's dormitory and chatted.

Xie Jiben is easy to make people feel friendly, and after a meal of friendship, Yao Shun became a little more courageous towards him, and said plainly: "I heard that man in the cafeteria yesterday that brother Xie is a big entrepreneur. ?”

Xie Ji: "It's okay."

Yao Shun: "I've only seen a domineering president who is so handsome and explosive in novels before, and I thought it was all fabricated, but I didn't expect to see him alive today, brother Xie, then when your domineering president fell in love, did you always give your partner a black eye?" Just swipe the card."

Xie Ji couldn't laugh or cry, it was all about what.

He shook his head: "I've never been in love."

"Ah! Single diamond king and fifth!" Yao Shun kept chatting with Xie Ji, afraid that Jiang Jichu would be unhappy, so he tentatively asked Jiang Jichu, "Where's Brother Jiang?"

Jiang Jichu: "No."

Yao Shun was stunned: "Are all handsome men single now..."

Xie Ji turned to Jiang Jichu with interest: "Your face is worthy of your family, right? Did you find a girlfriend?"

Jiang Jichu: "Not interested."

Xie Ji: "Passionate about art, good student."

Jiang Jichu didn't answer the topic, but instead said, "It's time for assembly."

Xie Ji: "Okay, then let's change shifts, you wait for me in our dormitory."

Jiang Jichu: "I'll put the bowls and chopsticks into the dishwasher first."

After Xie Ji and Yao Shun left, the freshness also receded like a tide, and the dormitory returned to its original quiet appearance.

The light in the kitchen is much darker than that in the living room, and you can barely see things clearly. The aroma of the noodles has not yet dissipated, adding a little smoke to it.

Jiang Jichu put away the dishes and chopsticks, and wiped his hands clean.

After packing up everything, he didn't leave immediately, but came to the shelf where the spices were placed, and took two spice jars from the shelf.

The surface of the jar is made of frosted material, and under the lingering light, only the white substance of nearly the whole jar can be vaguely seen. Fortunately, there is a label on it, so that we will not admit it wrong.

Jiang Jichu opened the jar with edible salt written on it, scooped out half a spoonful of it with a spoon, and squeezed out a few grains with his fingertips.

The tip of the tongue and the fingers touch the point.

He did the same, and tried to write that it smelled like the seasoning in the sugar seasoning jar. He didn't know whether he should be helpless or speechless.

Jiang Jichu hesitated for a moment, but still didn't adjust the label correctly, and just put it back silently.

·

The process of changing shifts went very smoothly, and the urn did not make things difficult for Xie Ji, but only said that if the shift was changed, he would not be able to participate in the selection of outstanding employees tomorrow.

Xie Ji owed more than 2000 points, so he didn't expect any excellent employees, while Yao Shun was very optimistic, and he wanted nothing but life.

The working hours in the afternoon were four hours. Xie Ji ran into a self-service vending machine on the way back and bought two bottles of X-Zai milk with his employee card.

The employee card can be used for unlimited consumption of anything in the funeral home, and he used the employee card to swipe the snacks last night.

When he returned to the dormitory, Jiang Jichu was changing the two-piece suit bought in the slums.

The white cloth fell from the shoulders, and once the hideous scar was covered to the end, it was possible to pretend that he hadn't suffered any injuries and everything was fine.

Xie Ji and Jiang Jichu had physical contact. At first, they thought it was the hypothermia caused by serious injury and blood loss, but later found that Jiang Jichu's body temperature was always lower than normal, and he was more afraid of cold.

And the air conditioner in the funeral parlor is so strong that it is necessary to wear a thin coat in summer.

Xie Ji handed the milk to Jiang Jichu: "I bought it on the road."

Jiang Jichu held the milk, with a puzzled look in his eyes: "What are you buying it for?"

Xie Ji: "Drink."

Jiang Jichu: "Why did you buy it for me?"

Xie Ji was amused by Jiang Jichu: "You are only nineteen, and you still have to grow. You only ate noodles at noon, and I will bring you a bottle of milk to grow your body. Is this answer okay?"

Jiang Jichu: "Oh."

Xie Ji talked about what he saw in the morning.

"We had to go to the cemetery in the afternoon. We met Zhang Ming this morning. His attitude was very strange. I guess he used up his chance to go to the cemetery after dinner last night and found something inside.

"He can figure it out, and we sure can too.

"We'll go after you finish drinking. Li Lan has to go to work in the afternoon and won't use the opportunity to go to the cemetery. We have nearly four hours to go shopping. Now that Ann can't be found, there is an extra Zen. The funeral home is like that Big, never run out."

Xie Ji waited for a long time without waiting for Jiang Jichu's response. He turned his head and saw that Jiang Jichu was staring blankly at the smiling little man on the milk bottle, seeming a little distressed.

Xie Ji: "What are you looking at?"

Jiang Jichu: "Sweet."

"Could it be spicy?" Xie Ji laughed, "Don't you like sweet food? Don't you like milk?"

Jiang Jichu put the milk into his pocket: "Drink it."

Xie Ji didn't bother with the milk issue, and continued to talk about business.

"According to the situation in Ann's room, the stool in front of the work desk is adjusted lower, and the bedside table smells of skin care products, and the handwritten annotations on the drawings in the tablet are also more beautiful.

"So Ann should be a woman, young, and especially talented in design. But she may be a bit withdrawn, and she doesn't communicate with people often, and only Zen is around.

"The number of ghosts has not increased today. I originally thought that Ann was probably possessed by someone between us on the first night, which caused us to be unable to complete the columbarium system 'team of two' on the second day. She is our team in the ghost.

"But now there's another Zen coming out, so it's impossible to determine whether it's Ann or Zen who got in the crowd."

Jiang Jichu's tone was firm: "It's Ann."

Xie Ji: "Why?"

Jiang Jichu: "I just found out in the kitchen of Ann's dormitory that the labels of salt and granulated sugar on her spice rack are reversed."

Salt and caster sugar are opposites...

Jiang Jichu only said a simple sentence, but Xie Ji quickly deduced the cause and effect from it.

He whispered: "Yao Shun, she is on Yao Shun..."

There is only half a bundle of noodles left in Ann's refrigerator, which means that Ann has eaten noodles a few times, and she only eats noodles.

For noodles, the amount of salt must be greater than the amount of sugar.

However, more granulated sugar is used in the seasoning jar, which shows that Ann has been using granulated sugar as salt.

A normal person would not eat like this.

It can be deduced from this that Ann has no sense of taste...

He used salt as a condiment when making lunch at noon, because the light was too dim, so he only used the label.

The label is reversed, and the noodles at noon must be unpalatable.

He has no sense of taste, and after making something, he will pay more attention to the feedback of the eaters. Jiang Jichu has eaten his food before, so today he pays more attention to Yao Shun.

But Yao Shun ate very naturally, nothing unusual.

But in the cafeteria on the first day, Yao Shun had a normal evaluation of the taste of the food in the cafeteria. When his teammates said that the food was salty, he said that the taste was normal, and it was better than the restaurant.

If you don't have a sense of taste but want to pretend, your first reaction should be to cooperate.

That is to say, Yao Shun still had a sense of taste on the first day, because Ann was attached to Yao Shun's body, which affected the perception of taste, so I didn't taste anything wrong when I ate today.

What Ann didn't expect was that there was a person like him who also had no sense of taste in the team.

Xie Ji: "When we were at the morgue last night, not only did she not cause trouble for us, she also cooperated very well."

Jiang Jichu: "This test should be relatively gentle, or she has no fighting power, knowing that even if she does it, she will not be able to affect us, and it will be self-defeating."

Xie Ji: "Yao Shun's body and reactions are no different from normal people, and it is not obvious according to common sense, but because of a bowl of noodles, it is a very beneficial point for us, we can think about how to use it."

Xie Ji opened the tab of the can, and the cool liquid flowed from the mouth into the throat.

He realized another problem: "You can eat it at noon..."

Jiang Jichu didn't look at Xie Ji, and rubbed the body of the can with his fingers in his pocket: "Otherwise it will be exposed."

But Xie Ji didn't let Jiang Jichu go, he called Jiang Jichu's name, and when the two eyes met again, he asked, "When did you know that I have no sense of taste?"

Jiang Jichu stopped his movements and couldn't help tightening his thumb on the mouth of the jar.

Without waiting for his answer, Xie Ji said again.

"It's not today's noon, if it's today's noon, you will think that it's me trying to find out that the seasoning is wrong, and suspecting Yao Shun, thus testing Yao Shun's strategy.

"But from the beginning to the end, you never asked me about this, which means you already knew that I have no sense of taste.

"The... problem with my music is that some people know about it, but not about taste.

"Who told you that?"

Jiang Jichu didn't expect that Xie Ji would be able to discover doubts about himself when Ann and Yao Shun were flooded with huge amounts of information.

He took out the tortured milk from his pocket, but as soon as Ke's fingers touched the tab, Xie Ji grabbed his wrist.

Xie Ji: "This milk is sweet, you ate so much sweet milk at noon, it's not suitable to drink it again."

Jiang Jichu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "Do you want to go back?"

"When is it, I still want to drink it," Xie Ji laughed, "How can I go back to what I gave you, because I'm afraid that you will be tired of drinking it, and it will be uncomfortable if you drink it sweet."

Jiang Jichu didn't know whether Xie's message was true or not, fearing that his milk would be taken away, he quickly stuffed it back into his pocket.

Xie Ji unhurriedly pulled out the chair and sat down, leaning back on the back of the chair to adjust to a comfortable posture.

"You were perfunctory to me last night, and now how do you want to answer it? I checked online, is there any friend with great powers?"
