In the world of strange rules, abstract and complex, [infinite]

Chapter 49: 53 In the stormy reality (2) Diep Tich's heart was filled with doubts...



On the opposite side of the road, three men who had just stopped their car got off. All three of them were wearing black baseball caps and black masks, only revealing their eyes. Their faces were completely invisible in the darkness.

The three of them ran slowly towards the entrance of the residential area. Ye Xi faintly felt someone approaching. Just as he was about to turn around, a sharp, hard object was placed at his side: "Don't make a sound, or I'll stab you to death."

Diep Tich breathed heavily, looking down in fear and fear, it was the sharp Swiss Army knife, the blade had already slightly pierced her outer clothes, just a little force would definitely hurt her internal organs, she would have to stay in the hospital for half a month even if she didn't die.

Nowadays, there are still people looting?

Diep Tich pressed the news: "What do you want? It's negotiable."

"You are smart." The man behind lowered his voice, "We are here for the props, take us to your house!"

Diep Tich was stunned: "'Tang Monk'?"

The other party did not hide it: "Not bad, it's me."

Diep Tich's doubts flashed through her mind, but before she could ask, she already had the answer in her heart.

——it was obvious that she was tricked by someone.

Whatever rich second generation, scumbag identity were all fake, just to let her guard down, the other party didn't want to give her money from the start. Just now at Anh Quang department store, she thought she was being set free by a dove, now it seems, she was probably being followed from the beginning.

Thinking back carefully, Ye Xi gradually realized that throughout the entire communication process, although it seemed like she was in control of the whole situation, in reality, the other party had been calmly changing the plan to be more beneficial to them.

At first she wanted to stop at the famous square on Changxing Street, but they said it was not convenient to stop the car, so they changed the location to the relatively remote Anbao Yingguang Department Store.

Later, she set the time at three o'clock in the afternoon, but they used the excuse of a car accident to slow down the time, so they changed it to nightfall, so they could take advantage of the darkness to spy and attack.

Ye Xi bit his teeth, his heart filled with anticipation as he scanned the entrance of the neighborhood's security pavilion——but the old neighborhood's security pavilion was an empty shell, most of the time there were only a few over half a hundred old men inside, their main duty was only to be in charge of locking and opening the main gate, letting cars in and out. At this time, it was unknown whether it was because of the time delay or because the men had gone to the bathroom, the security guards inside the pavilion couldn't even see a shadow, calling for help was completely impossible.

Diep Tich calmed down: "The props you want are in my bag, you can take them directly."

She thought that although this prop was worth two to three hundred thousand, but compared to that, her life was still more important. But the other party was more greedy than she thought: "Ah, you can sell props online, the props in your hand definitely don't stop at this one, right? Don't be nonsense, take us to your house, we'll take the props and leave!"

Ye Xi was in a daze, forced to take steps towards the residential area by force. She deliberately walked very slowly, on one hand trying to find a chance to survive, on the other hand wondering about another question - if she gave all the items to them, would she really be able to live?

Based on the strange talk form, she could probably live. Because at that time, the seriousness of "scheming for wealth" and "killing lives" were completely different, even if it was a person who broke into a house to rob, they might not want to put a life on their hands.

But now, the rules of the strange talk are leading to the disappearance of people every day, although the world seems to be operating normally, but in fact the order is slowly collapsing. In this situation, if she chooses to report the incident after being robbed of her props, the other party will break into her house and rob her, which is already fierce enough, combined with the value of the strange talk props, it can directly constitute a legal category that says "The amount of money committed is huge", once caught, she will definitely be imprisoned.

But if they kill her...

She was a woman who lived alone, even if she was murdered in the normal world, it would take several days for her to be discovered. In this situation, even if she did not live alone, if the other party killed their entire family and then dumped their bodies, the police would probably first wonder if they were thrown away by a strange parasite.

Otherwise, how could the other party dare to directly ask to go to her house? It was as if he was completely unafraid of asking her to report danger or other matters!

Realizing her situation, Diep Tich's heart beat erratically. She took two deep breaths to calm herself down, then looked around and analyzed her advantages.

... The first thing that was clear was that although the facilities and environment in this old residential area where she lived were not that great, the scale was large enough, just the route between the north and south gates alone would take nearly 20 minutes. She had just entered from the north gate, if she were to head to the farthest southwest gate, the furthest unit, it would still take quite a bit more time, roughly requiring 25-30 minutes to get there.

It was obviously useless to delay for more time, but the distance was too far and they would reach her sooner or later. She couldn't even delay for half an hour, so in the end she could only knock on the door of the building to ask for help. The knife was already behind her, and with one vicious strike, these people could directly stab her to death.

The more Diep Tich thought about it, the more desperate she became. At first, she just hated herself for not learning some female self-defense technique. Then, she absent-mindedly thought about when Tieu Lanh said at Anh Quang department store that he could send her back... She couldn't help but think, if only she didn't refuse.

The four people walked silently for about seven or eight minutes, when Ye Xi's cell phone suddenly rang.

She instinctively took out her cell phone, but before she could hold it firmly, she felt a stab in her side.

It did not penetrate, but it was enough to have a threatening force.

At the same time as Diep Tich lowered her head to look at that series of numbers, the robbers also looked at her cell phone. Seeing that the call was an unfamiliar landline, the robbers immediately said: "Fuck..."

Diep Tich didn't wait for him to finish speaking and quickly pressed the switch button. As if he had just realized what the robbers wanted to say, his eyes revealed fear and panic.

The robbers stared at her with a sinister expression, one hand moving to signal her to "Speak", the other hand reaching out and pressing down on the speaker.

Diep Tich had no choice but to say to the phone: "Hello, who is this?"

"Thuan Phong express delivery." The opposite person said briefly, at the three robbers who clearly relaxed at the same time, Diep Tich was stunned.

The other end of the phone said again: "You wrote the wrong address? I went to a store to give it to someone, but they said it wasn't this person."

"Ah..." Ye Xi was stuck for a second, then reacted, "Sorry, sorry, I rented a room, the first floor is over there, I've moved now, and it's still in this neighborhood..."

Before he finished speaking, the robber pressed down the phone and used his finger to hear the two people's voice saying: "Make him give it back another day."

After speaking, he pressed down on the mobile phone and moved it a few inches away, but the fruit knife at his side came closer.

Diep Tich choked and continued: "...I'm sorry, did you bring transportation again?"

Opposite said: "Got it, but how long have you been here?"

Diep Tich: "23rd floor, is the location behind the flower garden area, you can go from the south gate, it's quite close, from the north gate you have to go around a bit."

"Okay, I'll deliver it tomorrow." The other party finished speaking and hung up, looking like he was very busy.

"Go quickly!" The robbers urged. Diep Tich coldly glanced at him and continued walking forward.

23rd floor is in the southwest direction of the subdivision, she doesn't live there, but there really is a small garden there, the greenery is not bad, although the precious plants are not visible, but there are quite a few flowering bushes, there is also a small pavilion, on the weekends there are always quite a few children playing hide and seek there... It is a relatively convenient place to hide.

Putting away the phone, Diep Tich walked along the small road in front, turned west next to the 22nd building, and went to the 23rd building next to the 22nd building.

Very quickly, she saw that small garden mentioned on the phone. It was already evening, late autumn and cold, no one would be walking in the garden at this time of year, the real estate company had to turn off the street lights in the garden to save money, the garden was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers when you stretched out your hand.

Just as he entered the garden two steps, Ye Xi only felt a black figure flash before his eyes. Before he could see clearly, he heard a cry of surprise and miserable screams from behind. The fruit knife at his waist clattered to the ground. Before he could even stabilize, he was kicked further away by a sideways kick.

That horizontal stone also simultaneously knocked down the only third person standing, Diep Tich held his breath and turned around, Tieu Lanh was taking out handcuffs, forcing them one by one to the side to prevent residents from trampling on the flowers and grass on the protective ring.

The three people were in so much pain that they gritted their teeth and glared. Xiao Leng stood up and dusted his hands: "The police will be here soon. The car is over there." He reached into his windbreaker pocket and pressed the car key. Not far away, the car stopped at the door of the unit downstairs and turned on its lights.

"You go ahead and wait for me in the car."

"... Okay." The shocked Diep Tich couldn't even react to saying thank you, he could only instinctively follow the arrangement and walk towards that car.

She opened the car door and just sat in the passenger seat, a police car roared past from the side, only then did Diep Tich feel a shock, then slowly came back to his senses.

Death threat...

She looked through the car window, Xiao Leng exchanged words with the police for a few minutes, then waved his hand to say goodbye, and walked this way.

Very quickly, the car owner opened the door, Tieu Lanh sat in the car, Diep Tich quickly said: "Thank you..."

"You're welcome." Tieu Lang nodded, Diep Tich was speechless: "How do you know them..."

"I don't know." Xiao Leng's expression became solemn, "I was about to leave from the Anh Quang department store when I saw a car chasing after yours. I was worried that something was wrong, so I followed it here first."

... Then why didn't you send her a message first?

This idea just came to Ye Xi's mind, Xiao Leng then continued: "But I'm not too sure, so I can only follow first. When they reach the entrance of the residential area, they will already be holding knives against you."

But the neighborhood's door had no view, and he could easily move closer and cause trouble, unable to guarantee her safety. So he went to the supermarket to borrow a landline, and got the "Shunfeng Express" phone.

If she couldn't answer that phone call, it was fine. He followed them all the way, looking for an opportunity to strike whenever he could. However, moving to a better location would naturally be safer.

"... Thank you." Diep Tich repeated these words once more, Tieu Lanh laughed: "Just say it once."

Ye Xi shook her head, still feeling scared: "They just wanted to force me to take them home, saying they wanted to take the other props too. But I feel that if they really get the props, I will definitely lose my life, more or less you come..." Speaking up to this point, she couldn't help but tremble a little, her teeth bit her lips hard, "It was my carelessness, although I considered the possibility of danger, I didn't expect it to be so brutal."

Tieu Lang's eyes were gloomy: "If it's really that cruel, that's a hunter's tool."

Diep Tich said in surprise: "Hunter props?"

"It was written online, I just happened to see it, it belongs to a boring Chinese drama on the internet." Xiao Leng explained, the corners of his lips twitching, carrying a clear sense of humor, Ye Xi inexplicably found it very beautiful.

He paused for a moment: "I heard that they are organized, part of a criminal group, hunting together to obtain special props and fake identities. They must have succeeded a few times so far."

"But they are very careful, from the target selection stage they are very selective. Moreover, there have been too many missing people recently, the reason for the disappearance is difficult to judge, although the 17th is keeping an eye on this matter, but regardless of the clues or manpower, they are very limited, temporarily there is nothing to gain."

Tieu Lanh pointed at the car window beside Diep Tich, pointing towards the small garden: "Those three, considered the first wave because they were caught looting props."

After speaking, he looked at Diep Tich: "You said on the phone that you were renting a room, is that true?"

Diep Tich nodded: "Yes."

Tieu Lang let out a breath: "Then what is the means?"

Diep Tich was surprised: "What?"

"Moving house." Xiao Leng said, "Your news must be known to others in the collective, it's not safe to stay here. Let's go, go upstairs and pack your luggage."

"Cleaning now?!" Diep Tich was caught off guard.

City B is a big city, there is no shortage of rooms for rent, but it's already past 8pm, where can she find a room?

Staying in a hotel temporarily is actually possible, but packing up all the family's belongings and leaving, it's not good to leave so many things in the hotel.

Tieu Lanh glanced at her: "If you don't mind, go to the 17th worker dormitory?"

Diep Tich: "?"

Xiao Leng leisurely and leisurely began to introduce: "Although it is called a dormitory, the conditions are actually very good, there is one room one hall and two rooms one hall, independent guards, separate bathrooms and kitchens, if you are too lazy to cook, you can go directly to the 17th canteen to eat. With your identity card and contract, you can become a miscellaneous worker, good food at cheap prices."

"As for safety, of course there is no need to worry, even the transmitter and receiver are all martial artists on duty. Moreover, even if we are not martial artists, our own fighting strength is still quite capable."

Diep Tich: "..."

Tieu Lang's expression became even more urgent: "Moreover, we still have a worthy lover."

Diep Tich: "..."

Upright people do not talk about shady things. Although this idea was extremely strong for her, she was really moved. Renting a house, having food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation were all convenient, and safety was the most important thing.

But considering that every inch of land on Truong Hung Street is precious, she still asked one more question: "How much is the monthly rent? I am a side hustler, or a part-timer, will it be more expensive?"

"Ha." Xiao Leng laughed out loud, looking up from the rearview mirror to look at her amusingly, "Being a legendary 17th-level part-time agent, are you confident enough?"

.

A few hours later, Diep Tich was exhausted.

Actually, the matter was not too troublesome. As a newly graduated university student, she did not have much luggage. Not counting computers and other electronic devices, clothes, pots, pans, and other things, she could pack four large cardboard boxes. As for the procedures, the development of modern society's science and technology had completely simplified the procedures. In the case of a sudden withdrawal, she only needed to send a WeChat notification to the landlord. According to the contract, the landlord would deduct one month's security deposit as a penalty. The process was extremely simple.

Moreover, Xiao Leng was always by her side to help her. While she was busy packing, he not only contacted 1700 to help her get a good dormitory, but also conveniently found a trustworthy acquaintance to buy the prop [Guide] that she couldn't get her hands on. Ye Xi was really surprised by this, so she kindly agreed, and originally agreed to 240,000 with "Tang Monk", he gave him 200,000.

That night at 11:00 pm, Diep Tich finally completed the emergency move with Tieu Lanh's help.

When they arrived at the apartment building, Xiao Leng had already asked someone to make a room divider. Yang Ge ran downstairs to give her the room divider. When she saw him, she couldn't help but curse: "Look at you, look at you! I told you to be careful! This world's people are so vicious!"

"If it weren't for Captain Xiao accompanying you, you would be done for tonight! If you don't die, you will die in the hands of this bastard. You are not wronged!"

"... Indeed." Ye Xi lowered his head, Yang Ge pursed his lips: "Human hearts are more frightening than these weird things... Who cares, if nothing happens then it's fine, from now on we'll stay here together and it'll be safe, when you get back from work I can still have a meal together hahahaha."

She said as she opened the door and borrowed a handcart from the reception room. The three of them together put the luggage and four cardboard boxes on top of it into the elevator. Yang Ge turned on the chat and said, "Our rent here is a symbolic calculation, 20 yuan per square meter per month. Let me choose that two-room, one-hall suite for you, 90 square meters, the monthly rent is 1800 yuan. You can go to the finance office tomorrow to pay the fee at 1700 yuan, and you can also conveniently make some miscellaneous meals."

Diep Tich: "..."

Based on.

She rented that old apartment in the previous area, 40 bottles still need 4000 more rent!

Although she can now rely on the monster swipe to move a few hundred thousand to twenty thousand to advance, whether 1800 or 4000 to her is no longer much pressure, but this contrast still makes her deeply shocked.

"Ah, that's right." The elevator arrived at the 12th floor of Ye Xi's apartment building, Yang Ge remembered this matter again, "I haven't had time to tell Captain Xiao about this yet, Ye Xi just happens to be here, let's talk about it together!" As she spoke, she led the way in the porch, walked to the front door, and used the scrap room to open the main door, "It's Ye Xi's interview, today's reply, the other side's meaning is that the interview can be done at any time, they cooperate, but our department, you understand... there are always some things that need to be kept confidential, so some things can be reported, some things can't be reported, go back and add a confidentiality agreement, and ask your leaders to add it."

Diep Tich was a little surprised and immediately nodded: "Can the editor-in-chief do it?"

"Yes, if there is a problem, you can just take responsibility for it." Yang Ge grabbed the cart and it was pulled into the door. The three of them moved the cardboard boxes again. Ye Xi hurriedly said, "I can slowly pack it myself. It's getting late. You guys should go back and sleep! I've troubled everyone today!"

"Book, it can be considered that we went through life and death together, why are you still so polite." Yang Ge had a slight dissatisfaction in her mouth, but the look in her eyes as she looked at Xiao Leng naturally revealed sarcasm, unfortunately Ye Xi was behind her and couldn't see it.

Xiao Leng frowned, calm and composed: "Okay, if you need help, call me anytime." He paused, then said, "I'll be next door."

"Ah right, if there is something, call him." Duong Ca finished speaking and then added casually, "Calling me is also right, but I have been staying for 3 years, he is not near."

Diep Tich was filled with gratitude: "Thank you, thank you! I can do it myself..." Halfway through speaking, he remembered Duong Ca's dissatisfaction just now, and quickly corrected himself, "But there is something I definitely won't be polite about!"

"Ah, done." Duong Ca was satisfied at this moment, glanced at Tieu Lanh and nodded twice, pretending to yawn, "I'll go back to sleep, see you again!"

Tieu Lanh nodded and said: "See you someday."

"Take your time! I'll treat you to dinner some day!" Diep Tich saw them off, closed the door, turned around and looked around the new house before his eyes... Still feeling a bit unreal.

Mainly too sudden, life is really a place of variables.

However, compared to the sudden drop of the strange talk form, without moving, she was inhaled into the Rule Realm, moving house this "variable", ah, a little sincerity, not worth mentioning.

On the porch, Xiao Leng politely brought Yang Ge to the elevator. Yang Ge, in front of Ye Xi, had completely released his gossip: "You and her now..."

"How far have you come with Tran Dang Vu?" Tieu Lanh calmly pressed his voice against hers.

"..." Duong Ca suddenly couldn't prepare, his eyes widened, "What did you say?!"

Xiao Leng leisurely took the medicine and said strangely: "I don't know who it is, if you're not feeling well you won't go to the hospital, but you specifically want to call Zhang Zhao on Chen Dengwu's WeChat?"

"Captain Zhang, why are you saying it outside?!" Yang Ge choked, his cheeks gradually turning red, he argued while hiding his head and showing his tail, "I, I am too lazy to go to the hospital! The third-class hospital costs a lot of money! There is a doctor nearby, just ask for the means!"

"Oh." Tieu Lanh nodded in understanding, "I help Diep Tich because I like to help people."

Duong Ca: "..." I believe you.

"Don't say it, don't say it." Xiao Leng lowered the front of his shirt, "Otherwise, next time any of our brothers have a birthday, I will make a cake with you and Tran Dang Vu drawing together, and please blow out the candles together at 17."

"..." Duong Ca was so angry that he was blinded.

Joining the army, it is difficult to escape from the scene, the outside world commonly believes that it is because of the special nature of the profession that makes people stay three feet away from them when looking for a partner, in Yang Ge's opinion this is of course the main reason, but there is definitely an important woman who is in these two professions when looking for a partner, watching the excitement and causing trouble for too many comrades!

Like Tieu Lang, like Truong Chieu!

... Like her.

.

Room 1202, Diep Tich looked at the time, thinking that he still had to go to work, so he didn't rush to clean up, just laid out the bed first, then found his pajamas, took a shower, and ran to sleep.

The next day was Monday. Ye Xi got up and went out according to the old time. When she arrived at the company's door, she was slow to react. This was 17 o'clock compared to her original place. She arrived too early. The company's rule of 9:00 was about 40 minutes earlier.

More than forty minutes of precious time... It would be good to sleep a little longer!

Ye Xi sat in front of her office, feeling indignant. However, there was also some good in this, because although she was just playing with the computer, when the editor-in-chief entered the office at 8:40, she happened to be the only one in the room. The editor-in-chief saw her at a glance and smiled encouragingly, "So diligent, not bad!"

"Editor-in-chief, good morning." Diep Tich obediently greeted, remembering what Duong Ca mentioned last night, hesitating a bit, he did not directly bring it up.

Although she knew that the confidentiality contract required the editor-in-chief to sign, she still followed the normal work flow to ensure that it was appropriate. Overstepping the authority to publish a report was not a big deal.

8:50, her direct leader Lei Hai also arrived.

Lei Hai has the kind of lazy old worker on him. Every time he comes to the company, he first opens his mobile app to order coffee, then starts collecting his work supplies, refilling his water bottle, going to the toilet, and at least taking a half hour to poop before returning.

Diep Tich already knew this process like the back of his hand. When he was about to proceed to "Collecting Official Positions", he told him about the confidential agreement.

Lei Hai was bending over to collect the stamped papers in the bottom right drawer of the computer. Hearing her mention this, his hand paused for a moment: "Oh, I'll do it." After speaking, he sat up and said with a smile, "I know. This interview hasn't been decided yet. I'll talk to you about it later."

"Okay." Nodded, sat back down and went about his own business.

For the next two weeks, Diep Tich's work was uneventful. Even the 17th line did not inform her about any new topics.

In a flash, it was the beginning of the 11th month. City B entered winter with a strong wind. Seeing that the Li Tongji Palace was still warm for half a month, many people had already put on their down jackets.

On the second regular department meeting, the job interview was finally decided. The editor-in-chief arranged everything from big to small. Halfway through the meeting, Ye Xi vaguely felt something was wrong.

——The editor-in-chief arranged for her basic work to be either running errands or doing odd jobs, while Luo Yi was in charge of discussing and planning, and both of them were probationary workers, which was really not suitable.

Diep Tich had doubts in his heart, but was not sure, so he temporarily ignored them.

Until the last meeting, the editor-in-chief looked at Luo Yi with great admiration: "Although Luo Yi has not yet officially transferred, but this time the work done is not bad, giving us the plan to grasp the resources and news that other media do not have. So although he has not yet officially transferred, this time the work of discussion is still handed over to him, hope everyone cooperates well.":,,.
