Chapter VIII Temporary Workers
And...
Li Pan raised his head and looked at the ceiling. The secret door of the secret passage was in the No. 7 warehouse on the third underground floor, which is directly below the monster warehouse. If the trapezoidal container is really a 'coffin', then the longer bottom edge is the open coffin board, right?
In other words, this 'coffin' is upside down...
Then Li Pan really saw it. There was a keyhole on the ceiling of the third underground floor.
Is it really a coffin?
Or was it because he happened to be carrying the 'key' that he could see the 'door'...
Li Pan swallowed and looked at the figure of the company in the surveillance camera, which was like a whirlwind, chopping the vortex gang into pieces, and knew that he had no time to hesitate.
If the monster really fell into the opponent's hands, the head office would send another email asking him to snatch the monster back. Li Pan asked himself that he didn't have the ability to single out this ninja murderous dog.
So he moved the ladder, took out the key and opened the 'door' on the ceiling.
But to be more precise, it's a hole.
It's like opening the attic flap, but the hole is only big enough for someone to put their head in.
The hole was pitch black, and he didn't know what was inside. Li Pan didn't dare to risk his life by sticking his head in, so he put his left hand into the hole to fish it out.
Anyway, he has experience, the worst he can do is break his hand again.
After touching it for a few times, Li Pan felt like he had touched something, but the thing was so fluffy that it frightened him, and it poked a little far away. He couldn't reach it, so he tiptoed on the ladder.
Put your hand in and use your fingertips to hook it.
Fortunately, the thing seemed to be a sphere, and it rolled back from the inside, and he just happened to catch a handful and take it out.
What is this? It’s so dark, it looks like...a ball of wool?
The texture of this ball of thread is very similar to human hair. It is just like the hair ball that gets stuck in the drain when you take a shower. It is dirty and wet and feels disgusting to the touch.
Li Pan subconsciously thought he had caught a ball of dirt, but when he turned around to look, the hole opened by the silver key had disappeared.
So this disgusting thing is indeed a ‘monster’?
No matter what, the things have been obtained anyway, the warehouse infrastructure can be rebuilt by the cleaners, the Whirlpool Gang seems to be almost dead, and the surveillance video has been downloaded to the chip, so let’s withdraw.
So Li Pan put the ball of wool in his inner pocket, returned the same way, and evacuated it from the sewer.
Interestingly, when Li Pan passed by the entrance of the secret passage, he discovered that within a short time, the sebum all over the body of the monster crucified at the entrance of the secret passage had rapidly rotted and dissipated, and even the bones had rotted into a large pool of asphalt-like black pus.
The pus was so smelly that Li Pan had to ask Xingtian's system to turn off his sense of smell to avoid fainting. Naturally, in a place like the sewer, this strong smell also attracted a lot of flies, bugs, cockroaches, mice, and ants to enjoy it.
Feast.
This is obviously not the natural degradation rate of corpses. It is rare to see such a death in a place like the Night City, which has the most dead people. Li Pan can only guess that this monster is most likely some kind of artificial biochemical weapon, probably specially designed
Without the genetic lock, once the cell dies, it will immediately disintegrate, denying competitors a chance to extract and replicate genes.
It seems that there are more than one or two companies that are secretly watching the monster.
Li Pan's current equipment and level are not enough to go head-to-head with opponents from large companies. In order to avoid being followed again, he gave up as soon as he was ready and immediately took the subway back to the headquarters to hand in the task.
When I went out for a business trip, when I returned to the office, the company had been 'reset'.
So the cleaners are quite capable. They work much more neatly than NCHC. They clean up everything inside and outside the building. You can’t see the blood-soaked scene just now in the office.
The formal attire ordered by Li Pan was also delivered to the front desk.
This outfit obviously feels different to the touch, as if you can feel your body temperature, and it actually comes with a pair of leather shoes, which are just the right size. But for now, it seems to be just ordinary clothes, and you probably need to complete a task to activate it.
So Li Pan put on his formal clothes, threw his old clothes on the table, then took the report template from the personnel department, went to the general manager's office to turn on the computer, and first followed the procedure to help Daxiong's family apply for an interest-free pension loan.
No matter how overbearing Monster Inc. is, all contact information of direct former employees will be deleted. Big Bear is also a veteran and has a citizen registration in the system. If his family, especially his children, can apply for war orphans pension, they will not need to at least until graduation.
Worried about the mortgage arrears, I am sleeping on the street.
Providing guarantees for Daxiong and applying for loans in the name of the company's general manager, that's all Li Pan can do.
After finishing these personnel applications, he retrieved the monster file in Warehouse No. 7 and prepared to write a report to the head office to show his merit and request for promotion and salary increase.
Finally, the company's shabby computers still have the monster's information stored in it. In the product catalog folder, there are just too many deleted items, all kinds of (deletions), which makes Li Pan's eyes dazzled...
‘A mess/death bond, identification, red, uncontrollable.
A mess/death bond, very dangerous. Legend has it that the earliest form of existence was...the shroud...after the incident...it split into a mess.
A mess/death bond can sign a death contract with the dead through direct contact and be resurrected. The resurrected apostle can use the power and laws of...
The apostle of... cannot be eliminated before completing his obsession in life. Once the obsession of the deceased is completed, it will be deemed that the death contract has been completed, and he will be upgraded to a container of... that will draw... the clone to come...'
Someone also wrote a sentence on the back of the document.
‘Wherever I go, everything will turn into the shadow of death.’
Safety management measures,
Updated 07.57,
‘A 20-foot cabinet, one room, is sealed with.... For details of the ceremony, please see...
...Two of them, placed at both ends of the 20-foot cabinet.
Bind both ends of a mess/death bond to... both hands at the same time.
The death contract rules of ... conflict and are incompatible with each other. You can use ... to suppress and absorb the power of the rules of a mess/death bond.
Safety management failure measures,
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
When a safety hazard occurs, a temporary worker, note, must be a living person, will take care of the mess/death bond.
During the storage process, drugs and uninterrupted electrodes should be used to prevent the custodian from falling into a deep sleep.
Once caught in a dream,... a contract will be proposed in the custodian's dream.
You can wake up if you choose to refuse. Each refusal will cause a huge psychological and physiological burden on the custodian, and lead to rapid cell aging.
Please note that the custodian must be physically healthy, not suffering from underlying diseases, and have a remaining life expectancy of more than ten years.
Please note that you cannot place a mess/death bond with a dead body!
In addition, please regularly replace and destroy the... used to store the mess/death bond to prevent... from ascension.’
"..."
Li Pan looked at the pile of '...' and was silent for a while, then stood up and looked into the office through the window.
Then he saw the 'dead' man in formal clothes, standing upright like a human being, grinding beans and making coffee in the tea room.
Li Pan closed the door, checked the computer, and made a phone call.
"Hey, what, what should I do if my formal clothes seem to have changed into a corpse? Do you have the phone number of the dry cleaners?"
Although the landline does not have the dry cleaner’s phone number, it still has a lot of ideas.
"Warehouse No. 1, pen/powerful expulsion,
Identification, yellow, controllable.
Pen/powerful expulsion can expel most of the monsters that have not yet completed their arrival.
How to use,
A temporary worker takes out the pen/powerful expulsion, inserts the eyeball, squeezes the pen barrel to absorb the ink.
Use pen/powerful expulsion on monsters by temporary workers.
sequelae,
Permanent grief and blindness that cannot be reset."
"Warehouse No. 16, baton/justice will kill,
Identification, yellow, controllable.
Baton/Justice will kill, can knock down all monsters of justice.
How to use,
At least two temporary workers are required,
Temporary workers need to fight under the witness of batons/justice, and the last survivor will be marked as 'unjust'.
Use 'unjust' temporary workers on monsters under the witness of baton/justice.
As long as it causes the death of an 'unjust' temporary worker, the monster will be marked as 'just'.
At this time, anyone holding a baton/Justice Killer can knock down the 'Justice' monster and kill it with the stick.
sequelae,
Holding a baton/Justice Killer will definitely knock down the "Justice" monster, and the opponent cannot fight back, but the baton/Justice Killer can only cause blunt damage, and requires continuous beating to ensure the kill.
The duration depends on the 'Justice' monster's resistance to stick damage and the user's physical fitness.
If the user dies before achieving the 'certain kill', it cannot be reset, and 'injustice' and 'justice' need to be redefined.
So please prepare more temporary workers."
"Warehouse No. 39, Send the Child Statue/Summon the Familiar
Identification, yellow, controllable.
Sending the child statue/summoning the familiar can summon the familiar and realize a wish within the reach of the magic power.
How to use,
We need a temporary worker, both men and women, to send children to the statue/summon familiars to pray for pregnancy.
The temporary union got pregnant on the second day, and gave birth to a baby on the third day.
The temporary union gave birth to a stillborn baby/familiar.
Use a temporary worker on a monster. After the temporary worker dies, the monster will be destroyed by stillbirth/familiar.
sequelae,
There are almost no side effects, the power of the familiar is equivalent to that of an apostle, and it only requires one temporary worker.
Please use the temporary workers immediately after summoning the stillborn/familiar, otherwise the stillborn/familiar will devour the temporary workers after three days and complete the coming of..."
"Warehouse No. 42, Dragon Wine/Dragon Blood
Identification, yellow, controllable.
How to use,
Drink, transform, and gain the power of a dragon.
sequelae,
The transformation is permanent and cannot be reset.
Note that taking dragon wine/dragon blood will cause temporary workers to become uncontrollable and need to be destroyed or stored immediately.
For countermeasures and management methods, please refer to Memo 42 Sub-Project Dragonborn..."
"Hey...fuck me...temporary workers have no human rights, right..."
Li Pan took a deep breath,
"And don't you have some normal stuff in your warehouse? What the hell is this a bad idea? It's either eye insertion or cane death, or pregnancy transformation? Can't you put some more humane stuff in your office?
!I don’t know, like R!P!G!”
However, the landline ignored Li Pan's roar and replied,
"Formal wear/guardian can be immune to damage from most level five military weapons."
"...Wow, are you so awesome? Can you stop the projectile cannon? What about the naval gun?"
"The formal suit/guardian is not a perfect defense, but an immortal guardian. As long as it does not die and there is no rule conflict, it can be reset."
The echo on the other side of the landline paused.
"There has never been a formal/guardian who has signed a contract with a mess/death bond. Maybe I should use the pen/powerful expulsion. This is currently the strongest method against monsters in the 0791 branch, and it can be effective against most monsters.
."
"The strongest... No. 1..."
Li Pan took a look at the file of Fountain Pen/Powerful Expulsion from the directory,
"This blindness cannot be reset. How can it be a fake eye card bug? And what the hell is permanent sadness? Why don't I have the permanent sadness of the rich second generation?"
Landline instructions,
"It's permanent sadness and permanent blindness.
The conditions for use of most monsters include self-inflicted sacrifice, and in most cases, no energy transfer such as equivalent exchange will occur, so there are no formulas or experimental principles.
And in what way, at what price, the sacrifice can be exchanged for what degree of power, it depends more on the will of the monster on that side.
Each employee is only recommended to use the pen/powerful expulsion once. In fact, most people commit suicide by deleting files due to permanent sadness after using it for the first time.
A small number of people who survived have not regained their sight, but they can use auxiliary prostheses for people with disabilities similar to echolocation systems and ultrasonic radars.
Therefore it is recommended to be used by temporary workers."
"Asshole, these are just tricks that kill one thousand people and harm oneself eight hundred, thank you."

Someone next to me handed over coffee. Li Pan was staring at the computer and making phone calls. He subconsciously took it and took a sip. Then he realized what he was doing and turned around to look.
The fake corpse in formal clothes brought him the brewed coffee. Seeing him thank him, he even bowed, as elegant as a butler.
The ball of black wool is stuck to the chest of the formal suit, and from a distance it looks like a black corsage is blooming.
Li Pan looked at the other person's back as he left, "Hey, what the hell is that..."
Landline, "How do I know? I'm just a phone."
Gee, none of them are reliable.
Li Pan hung up the phone and took a look outside, only to see that the fake corpse prepared coffee for each table, and then went to stand at the front desk.
But I was limping when I walked because one of my trouser legs had been scratched before...
Li Pan scratched his head, stepped forward and patted the formal shoulder and said,
"Hey, brother, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
He bowed to him in formal attire and then wrote in the memo.
‘Return to full position’
Li Pan almost shed tears. I really want to recite a poem.
Boil the beans and burn the pods, and the beans weep in the cauldron. They are originally from the same root, so there is no need to fry them in a hurry.
Alas, leave him alone. It takes three years for temporary workers to become regular workers. In a sense, they are considered safe, right?
What's more, Monster Inc. is such a piss-poor and uses temporary workers to death. Even if he is still alive in formal clothes three years later, it is a miracle that he is still alive. Then just throw it to the next general manager. You have to believe in future generations.
The wisdom.
So Li Pan changed the report, took a photo of the fraudster in formal attire, wrote a resume for him, and named him 'Mr.007'. The general manager signed and agreed to hire him as a temporary worker, which was the same as today's business report.
And take the photo to the head office.
After a while, the signed and sealed report came back with a buzz.
Bala, bala, bala, Daxiong’s work-related injury pension requires the signature of the immediate relative beneficiary before it can be applied for.
Bala, bala, bala, it’s a mess/The death bond seal is completed, and you will be rewarded with a silver key.
Bala, bala, bala, recognize ‘Mr.007’ as a temporary worker, file number 0.
Li Pan, "..."
Well, he has also seen the style of Monsters Inc. They don't expect you to be able to make the company more organized, or in other words, in the monster business, it is most impossible to expect everything to go as you wish.
So as long as the core asset 'monster' is not lost, you can save it however you want, and deal with it however you want. Even if you call in the Dead Apostles as temporary workers, that's your responsibility as the general manager. As long as you don't deal with any messy things,
It also caused all employees to delete files. All business processes are within the discretion of the general manager.
When Li Pan got the second key this time, he immediately saw the keyhole in his formal clothes and the side of his heart.
So he didn't hesitate and used the key directly...
"Why doesn't there seem to be any reaction? What is your trial specifically?"
Li Pan turned around and asked ‘Mr.007’.
The other party also has experience and wrote in the memo,
‘Just go back and take a nap.’
Li Pan looked at the sky and nodded,
"Okay, then I'm off work, remember to turn off the lights."
