"...Gold is the gold of gold..." Cheng Ye stared at the cook and finished his sentence.
He saw the cook's eyes light up and he became excited.
It was as if something had been unlocked.
After the cook got a satisfactory answer, he was ready to leave with an excuse.
Cheng Ye naturally wouldn't give him this chance.
Cheng Ye: "Don't you know Ruskin?"
The cook smiled naively: "Hey, this is the first time I've heard of it."
Cheng Ye raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you from Tianshang City?"
The cook still pretended to be stupid and prepared to leave.
Cheng Ye grabbed the chef's sleeve: "I answered your question, aren't you going to answer mine?"
The cook was a little helpless and said in a good temper: "No, I just want to know the name of the place where I work..."
"How do you know "God" is not its real name? "Cheng Ye became interested.
He felt that there must be something wrong with the cook.
The cook nodded and said very seriously: "I come from the countryside and I really don't know about big companies in big cities."
His expression was very humble, even with a hint of cowardice.
His eyes were timid, as if he was afraid of being discriminated against.
If it were anyone else, they might be thinking: I really deserve to die!
But at this moment, he was facing Cheng Ye.
Cheng Ye just stared at him for a few seconds, and then asked, "Are you fat?"
The cook was stunned and blinked.
"You, you you you...you are..."
Cheng Ye sighed: "Cheng Ye."
"Boss! How could it be you!" The cook became obviously more excited, his eyes shining like gems.
Cheng Ye curled his lips, so this person never thought about finding teammates from the beginning to the end?
"You never thought about finding teammates?" Cheng Ye asked.
The cook was dejected: "I have thought about it, but after entering the game, unless I am fighting against Ben, my name and appearance have changed. I have to abide by the rules of the chef's work every day. I can't go far at all, so I can only take advantage of everyone's meal. It’s time to look for someone who is alone…”
Cheng Ye thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.
At the beginning, he couldn't even leave his workstation. He had to work hard and not fish.
It was only later that I judged the importance of the employee card through the rules, so I was able to go out to the company gate and get more information.
"Boss, how did you guess who I was?" The fat man sat down again and looked at Cheng Ye with a smile on his face with admiration.
Cheng Ye: "I've been to this place before."
The fat man's eyes widened: "Is this your second time entering this dungeon?"
Cheng Ye shook his head: "It's the same map. Last time I came here, Ruskin had been banned, so when I found out that this company was Ruskin, I realized that there was a huge conspiracy hidden behind it."
"Ruskin is a company that has done things that outraged both humans and gods. No matter people in heaven or on earth will know about this company, because it was broadcast in real time and everyone could hear the progress."
"...So when you asked me if I knew about Ruskin..." Fatty suddenly understood why Cheng Ye had that expression just now.
He didn't realize anything at the time.
Cheng Ye nodded: "You don't know Ruskin, and you still inquire about the name of the company. Normal people will not suspect that the name of your company is not the real company name. Just like if you go to the KFC in front of your home to eat every day, you will not suspect that this is the name of the company." KFC is actually McDonald's in disguise. Secondly, when I tell you how to write the three words Ruskin, you will want to write the words 'I am so happy' on your face... Even a fool will think there is something wrong with you."
"Then you don't have to think too much. Being able to inquire into this kind of question means that you have more information than others. You know that this company is selling sheep over dogs, and you have a face full of stupidity and sweetness. It doesn't look like you are an undercover agent. If you enter the company to investigate other matters, it is only possible that the system has given you a task and you have to complete it."
The fat man was dejected: "Am I so obviously happy?"
Cheng Ye smiled and hit the fat man on the head with his tachyon: "It's quite obvious."
The fat man sighed and glanced at the food in front of Cheng Ye: "Boss, please eat first. There is absolutely no problem in the canteen on the fourth floor. You can eat with confidence."
"Is there a problem on the third floor?" Cheng Ye asked.
Since we are our own people, we should quickly exchange clues with each other.
The fat man looked around and said in a low voice: "The food on the third floor is all cheap food. I went to see it, and it stinks. They used a bunch of medicines that I don't know what they are to make the food rotten." The smell is masked.”
"Boss, you must not eat the dishes on the third floor. They have been processing those dishes almost all night."
It matched what Cheng Ye saw before.
Cheng Ye thought of something and asked, "You don't know what compound meat is?"
The fat man became even more nervous when he heard this. He lowered his head and said in a smaller voice: "I know, I know. Didn't you chat with us in the morning? After you left, I asked the eldest sister who was washing vegetables. She was mysterious. The secret told me..."
"Composite meat is meat that has been put into decay by being broken into pieces, added with various cross-linking agents, and re-pressed."
The fat man said nervously: "Boss, you haven't eaten on the third floor, have you?"
Cheng Ye thought about yesterday's lunch and swallowed.
Fortunately, he didn't order compound meat, but from the patient's point of view, those maggots all over the place... must not be a good meat after all.
Forget it, don’t think about it.
"Tell me your rules." Cheng Ye asked softly.
The fat man smiled sheepishly: "Boss, I..."
Cheng Ye sighed: "Forget it, I understand."
Sure enough, what he worried about happened, and Fatty didn't remember all the rules.
The fat man became anxious and said quickly: "No, that's not what I meant. I did not write down the rules, but I recorded them. Except for the first half of the first sentence, which was not recorded due to time constraints, I sorted out the rest. "
Cheng Ye looked at the fat man approvingly: "Not bad."
"Then I'll get it for you?" The fat man laughed happily when he heard the compliment.
Cheng Ye nodded, and the fat man stood up and left.
While Fatty went back to look for the rules, Cheng Ye opened the note that the man just handed him.
It read "Emergency physical examination, whole body."
At the end is the man's name.
The handwriting is rather sloppy, and it can be seen that it is in a hurry.
This piece of paper also has the special pattern on the employee badge. If you shake it up and down against the light source, you can see the different luster of the pattern.
Go for a physical examination...
Do you want to go?
This is a good opportunity to go to the Human Resources Department, but I always feel that I will never come back.
It felt like that place was dangerous.
If you are really found to be infected...
"You are a person who has given everything to the company. The company will not treat you unfairly and abandon you. Please rest assured."
The man's voice echoed in his ears again.
Cheng Ye frowned.
He didn't quite believe it.
This sentence sounds more like an emphasis, like there is no three hundred taels of silver here, like someone has questioned it before, so it was prepared in advance.
The white employee card did sign a confidentiality agreement with Ruskin, and the content of the agreement was similar to selling oneself.
Although he was misunderstood as a person who gave everything to the company, he did not believe that the company would treat him the same way.
Install the latest version. 】
Maybe to study his infection.
Maybe these dedicated people exist just to develop medicines.
Maybe those composite meats... grew from their bodies...
Cheng Ye thought a lot until Fatty came back again.
He still didn't know what choice Cheng Ye faced, so he happily handed a piece of paper to Cheng Ye.
"Boss, I've written it all down. It's all here."
Cheng Ye took the paper and started to read it.
[Rule 1:...Be kind and have no ill intentions toward you. If you sense malice, it must be your imagination. 】
[Rule 2: You have a very important job. Please make meals according to the recipes every day to provide nutrition to the employees. Please be sure to do your job well and never add too much salt or oil. 】
[Rule 3: Don’t leave your place of work unless necessary. Your work scope is the canteen, including the dining hall. 】
[Rule 4: Please do not reveal anything about the canteen to anyone. Your job is very important, so please cherish it. 】
[Rule 5: Many times, employees may be hungry during non-meal hours. Please take good care of them. They have given everything to the company. Even if there is no food, please find ways to fill their stomachs. 】
[Rule 6: All the food in our canteen on the fourth floor can only be used for one day. Regardless of whether you have finished eating or not, please throw it into the kitchen waste bin. There will be dedicated people to deal with this waste, so please don’t worry. 】
[Rule 7: You can only eat when there are no employees in the cafeteria. Please do not let anyone see your eating process. 】
[Rule 8: If you are accidentally seen by someone while you are eating, please snatch his employee card and tear it up. 】
[Rule 9: You should always remember your identity and never do unnecessary things unless you change your identity. 】
Cheng Ye stared at the first rule and said, "Your first rule is the same as mine."
The fat man rubbed his head in embarrassment: "I was in a hurry to record it, so the first one is incomplete."
Cheng Ye did not add the first rule very firmly: "I should be more rigorous. The second half of your first rule is exactly the same as mine."
The fat man blinked and asked, "What's your first rule?"
"Rule 1: People here are very kind and have no malice towards you. If you feel malice, it must be your illusion." Cheng Ye recited it directly.
"We...maybe we are different?" Fatty hesitated for a moment, then asked.
Cheng Ye smiled: "Maybe I'm nervous, but I know it. Although most of it is the same, I still don't think so easily."
This is the lesson the "Purgatory" mode taught him.
Never take anything for granted.
It will most likely harm you.
Nothing remains unchanged. Treating all copies as if they are the last time is the proper attitude.
The fat man nodded.
He has no objections. Now that the boss has been found, naturally everything will be obeyed by the boss. All he needs to do is fulfill his role as a nanny.
Cheng Ye's eyes were fixed on the eighth rule.
This item concerned him very much.
[Rule 8: If you are accidentally seen by someone while you are eating, please snatch his employee card and tear it up. 】
Could this be the reason why employees are missing?
Because I have lost my identity, I can no longer leave this building and no one can see me?
Cheng Ye thought for a while and asked, "Have you ever been seen eating?"
The fat man shook his head quickly: "Boss, I still cherish my life. I hid in the toilet and sorted out the rules as soon as possible."
Cheng Ye nodded, his eyes becoming more serious.
[Rule 4: Please do not reveal anything about the canteen to anyone. Your job is very important, so please cherish it. 】
But Fatty had already revealed it to him.
What will happen? He violated the rules. What negative impact will the rules have on him?
Cheng Ye frowned and felt complicated for a moment.
How could this man be so undefended? Didn't the rules tell him not to reveal anything about the canteen? Why was he still telling me this in such detail? I wanted to take it all out and tell myself!
How could there be such stupid people in the world!
The fat man clearly noticed that Cheng Ye's mood was not right. He asked cautiously: "Boss, what's wrong with you? Or, did I...did I do something wrong?"
Cheng Ye raised his head and glanced at Fatty.
I saw him looking at me sincerely, with a pure face, and a hint of timidity in his eyes.
He wasn't pretending, he was really afraid of being angry.
Cheng Ye lowered his eyes and asked in a very soft voice: "Why do you trust me so much?"
The fat man replied subconsciously: "You are the boss."
"But have you noticed that you have violated the rules?" Cheng Ye pointed to the fourth article on the paper.
The fat man looked in the direction of his index finger, and then froze.
He smiled sheepishly: "Did I hold you back?"
He was so happy to see his boss that he wanted to tell him all his findings.
He really... forgot about it.
But it doesn't matter, it would be great if I can help the boss.
But, that doesn't seem to be the case.
The fat man looked at Cheng Ye's serious face and felt a little uneasy.
They also have props and many chances to save their lives, so they won't die just because of one mistake.
However, Cheng Ye didn't seem to think so.
I heard him say very seriously: "Even if it's me, even if you trust me very much, you must tell me things while abiding by the rules, okay?"
The fat man nodded.
Cheng Ye continued: "What if I am a fake? What if I was deliberately created by the game to trick you into breaking the rules? Aren't you wasting an opportunity?"
After hearing this, Fatty finally paid attention and said seriously: "Boss, I remember it, and I will never do it again next time."
Cheng Ye sighed.
He didn't know why, but he couldn't bear to say harsh words to the fat man.
What Fatty didn't tell him was that he was already very familiar with him. The moment he told himself that he was Cheng Ye, he immediately felt that he was definitely Cheng Ye.
Cheng Ye stared at the other rules on the paper.
It doesn't matter, it's really just a small mistake, and there are ways to remedy it...
