  Chapter 40 April 14, 1961

  During the few days when his father Jie Lanyu fell asleep, his agent was extremely anxious.

  Recently, Lan Yu took on a modern romance drama, starring opposite a girl who debuted in a certain creative camp.

  But unfortunately, Lan Yu has been left behind in all promotional activities and variety shows these days.

  Fortunately, Lan Yu also disappeared from time to time several times.

  In the end, although it was defined as a big name, traffic always came first, and Lan Yu was still as popular as ever.

  Now that there are a lot of things to do, Qin Ze also knows that Lan Yu really delayed the opportunity to make a lot of money just to educate himself.

  Keep yourself from falling as much as possible.

  Different from Jian Yiyi's mother-in-law care, Lan Yu seems to be more simple and crude -

  directly tearing open the scars of the past to show you.

  Qin Ze remembered what happened today, and when he finally saw Lan Yu's manager calling him repeatedly, he said goodbye to Lan Yu wisely.

  ...

  ...

  Youke New City Community, April 13th at 23:00 in the evening.

  Everyone was awake.

  Because in a few minutes, it will be a new day.

  The calendars of several people in the group have gone into hibernation, but this does not affect everyone's excitement for the arrival of a new day.

  "We are children, we want to celebrate Children's Day!"

  Although it was not yet Children's Day, two young women in the group, Lin An and Luo Shu, had already started shouting.

  Qin Ze also discovered that whenever Children's Day comes, those who insist on being children are basically women.

  Naturally, there are people who are sober in the world and can say a few words: How old are you, and you don’t have the right number? Do you really think that the word "women and children" is a bundled sale?

  But Qin Ze still sent a red envelope.

  Yes, the company's special group software actually supports sending red envelopes.

  It's a festival, just to have fun, why do you have to be angry with others?
  "Thank you for being a temporary worker. Are you really not considering becoming a regular employee?" Accountant Luo Shu didn't expect a gift.

  Although the red envelope is only a few yuan, the amount is not important, the feeling of picking up the money is the most important.

  "No change."

  At this moment, June 1st of the Gregorian calendar has arrived.

  The girls in the group were discussing where to go, and Duke, a married man, also planned to take his children out tomorrow.

  Chef Yu Ji is the person Qin Ze has the least contact with so far. He also spoke at this time:
  "I have developed a new dish that I can cook for my wife tomorrow. We don't have children yet, but she is a child here. Luo

  Shu and Lin An were moved and envious after hearing this. They both knew that Yu Ji's wife was six years older than Yu Ji.

  But it's not like two gold bricks hugging a rich woman as the world thinks, but the two really appreciate each other and stay together.

  Chef Yu Ji's skills are very good. The occupation of chef in the old calendar is essentially an auxiliary occupation.

  The food you cook can bring many effects, but you should not eat too much. Eating too much may cause distortion.

  Only after complete digestion can the food cooked by Yu Ji be eaten again.

  These foods have also brought great help to the people in the group.

  Yu Ji rarely uses functional cooking, but he is still a profession that can be described as "great".

  Qin Ze looked at the cheerful chatting atmosphere in the group, with Xiao Qiao still sitting blankly on his shoulder. He no longer felt lonely.

  It seems that I gradually feel some beauty in life that I have never noticed before.

  He stopped looking at the group and opened the calendar.

  "April 14, Dingsi month and Gengyin day."

  There are still two days before the calendar recovers and refreshes the appropriateness and taboos again.

  By April 16th, Qin Ze could feel the joy of breaking taboos every day again.

  During these days this week, although the calendar was dormant, Qin Ze's mentality had changed a lot.

  He no longer finds this kind of life boring.

  Qin Ze continued to look down.

  In the blank part of the calendar, there is indeed some more information -

  [All good luck has a price, and all dangers also have rewards.

  【Qin Ze, a man from the old calendar, gained the ability·Actuarial Mapping on April 14th. ]

  [Actuarial Mapping: You can see the probability of accidents. The accident rate value will be displayed on everyone's head, but it cannot be changed. It is a pure intelligence ability. ]

  [Source of ability, actuary.

  "It has a certain effect, but not much... Well, it's probably because I wasn't deeply involved this time." "I

  play more of a role as a connector, responsible for command."

  So far, Qin Ze has For quick thinking, journalistic fitness, and actuarial mapping.

  But none of these abilities are combat abilities.

  "The reporter's physique triggers various events. At present, I am really like a trigger for strange events. I have encountered a lot of evil things during the few days when the calendar is dormant." "

  But actuarial mapping... this ability is indeed It's optional. At most, it can serve as a reminder when you see the accident rate on your own head or on others' heads is too high." "

  If I want to gain direct combat capabilities, I'm afraid it won't work to hide behind the scenes like this. It's really troublesome. ."

  He said he found it troublesome, but Qin Ze's expression was quite cheerful.

  It is always good to have the ability to prepare for a rainy day.

  ...

  ...

  April 14, noon.

  After eating the lunch he made, Qin Ze said to Xiao Qiao,
  "Can you be responsible for washing the dishes?"

  Xiao Qiao teleported and disappeared.

  Qin Ze sneered:

  "Oh, not virtuous at all."

  He had to wash the dishes by himself. After finishing all kinds of trivial things, Qin Ze received a call.

  "Temporary worker, it's me, Luo Shu."

  Qin Ze didn't expect that Luo Shu would actually call him.

  Luo Shu's voice sounded quite inconsistent with the extremely detailed image he saw in the group, and seemed too soft.

  Qin Ze said calmly: "Do you have a problem with me?"

  Luo Shu said politely: "Excuse me, temporary worker, it's like this. Although you have been unwilling to become a regular employee, I also asked Team Leader Jian for permission, and the Team Leader also agreed. ."

  "But the team leader said that you can not become a regular employee according to the system, but you can't always do nothing." "

  Although with your help, we have arrested an unruly black calendarist and an actuary. Experienced, in a sense, your business volume is up to standard..."

  "But we still hope that you can come to the company headquarters and become familiar with our real work." "

  As an accountant, I will be responsible for explaining it to you."

  Qin Ze understood.

  Employees of the co-authored "company" also have business requirements.

  This business seems to be related to the arrest of the Black Calendar.

  This made Qin Ze feel pretty good. He finally knew what these people were busy with on weekdays.

  "Okay, this is a reasonable request. I accept it. I'll come over now."

  "Okay!"

  Qin Ze was also curious. Although the "company" is called a company, it must have a name that is acceptable to ordinary people.

  It is impossible to dig out all the weird events by yourself.

  The world is so vast that only a handful of Old Apostles can't even discover it.

  Therefore, there must be an organization that allows victims to proactively consult.

  Qin Ze simply changed into clean clothes, white short-sleeved shirts and jeans, which was a refreshing combination, and went out directly.

  ...

  ...

  "Company" is actually relatively biased and belongs to the new development zone.

  Because the real estate company that had previously contracted to build residential buildings in the surrounding area gave up the project -

  resulting in a mess of unfinished buildings around it, the merchants who bought the commercial buildings in advance were all scolded.

  But this also makes the shopping building where the company is located very quiet. This place is very suitable for being the base of Linxiang City.

  Therefore, the company directly bought the building. Seeing that the surrounding areas were in poor condition, the merchants were happy to have someone take over.

  When Qin Ze arrived here, he found that there was no one around.

  Passing by the second floor of the building, he found a lot of people, just like a normal financial company, everyone was busy with something.

  There is also a front desk on the second floor. On the marble wall behind the front desk, the words "Normal Office" are written.

  Qin Ze followed the detailed address privately sent by Luo Shu and entered the third floor of this shopping building.

  The floor that was supposed to be the New Century Department Store has now turned into a huge office floor that looks empty.

  There is a poster on the wall, Lan Yu's.

  There are also several statues. It is said that Jian Yiyi has recently studied sculpture.

  It is worth mentioning that there is a kitchen and several bedrooms.

  The door of Cheng Wan's bedroom was open, and there were many rare metal raw materials that Qin Ze had never seen before.

  Also, there is a fortune-telling room on the floor with a simple style and a Bagua Tai Chi plate on the door.

  The nine workstations are far apart, and each station is equipped with a computer and a floor map.

  When Qin Ze came in, Luo Shu waved his hand:

  "Temporary workers! Here, here! I'm here!"

  Cheng Wan, Duke, Lin An, and Luo Shu, there are only four people here currently.

  Counting Qin Ze, there were five people in total.

  "Your workstation was added temporarily. It's very empty here anyway, and the upper floors are unused. I'll get you a bedroom later." Luo Shu is 1.59 meters tall and looks rather petite

  . Comparing Duke, it's like two different species.

  However, Luo Shu's full bangs and double ponytails, combined with his figure, make him look like a minor.

  Lin An is a slightly chubby type, with kind facial features and kind eyes, which makes Qin Ze feel like he is the kind of experienced attending physician.

  Seeing how young the group and Luo Shu's speeches were, Qin Ze felt a sense of contrast.

  Of course, Qin Ze is used to it.

  After all, from Jian Yiyi to Lan Yu, he was used to it.

  "Is this a way for me to live here?"

  "That's not true. I just give you the right to live here. You can treat this as your second home." "You can think of

  everything here, by the way. The first floor below is responsible for interrogating and temporarily detaining prisoners." "

  The first floor below is where various old calendar items are sealed. Currently, only Lan Yu and Team Leader Jian are qualified to use them directly. If others need to use them, they must Just apply."

  "Then the second floor is the place responsible for reception. There will be some ordinary people on the second floor who know the existence of the company and have received training from the company. They will be responsible for collecting various intelligence, posting advertisements, or going deep into various forums. Here, they look for strange stories, weird, twisted, and terrifying events." "

  After some screening, they filter out some things that are fake at first glance, and some of them will also investigate them personally. Finally, they will share some of the events that they think may be true. Summarize it to us and let us choose what to deal with." "

  There will also be some people who take the initiative to come to us to communicate and consult with us. Generally, they are responsible for reception on the second floor." "

  People on the second floor do not have authority. , are not allowed to enter the third floor. So here, um, you will not be harassed." "You must

  spare twelve hours a week to come to the third floor of the company."

  Luo Shu finished talking about the company very clearly main responsibilities.

  Simply put - dealing with paranormal events.

  Accepting commissions for various supernatural events that people cannot understand.

  Qin Ze nodded:
  "It's very detailed. What I want to know is, among the things summarized for you on the second level...how many of them really happened?" "

  Very few, most of them are just like entering science. Things that looked weird from a distance, but after getting to know them carefully, I found out - Oh, is this it?"

  Luo Shu was telling the truth. Among a hundred supernatural events that had been screened, there were probably only one or two that were truly supernatural.

  But in fact this is enough exaggeration.

  After all, there are really supernatural events in this city, and there are many rumors of supernatural events every day.

  That's why Qin Ze and Qiao Wei disappeared at the wedding scene, so they didn't cause much commotion.

  This is nothing in Linxiang City.

  "Lan Yu and the team leader have already gone to deal with some things, and Cheng Wan and Duke will be assigned tasks soon

  ." "You also have a task today. But don't worry, I think this task has nothing to do with supernatural events. Luo

  Shu said and handed Qin Ze a mission report.

  "This was screened out today. A woman and a man took their children to the amusement park." "The woman went to

  the bathroom on the way, but when she came back, the man was missing."

  "Only the child was stunned."

  "The woman asked the child , where did daddy go?"

  "The child cried loudly and said that daddy had other children. Dad didn't want him anymore and went to play with other children." "

  The woman felt strange, so she called the man, and the man just After saying a word, he hung up the phone."

  Qin Ze looked at the task list, which was the client's contact information.

  He asked:
  "What did the man say?"

  Luo Shu said: "The man said, I have my own child."

  Then Luo Shu added:

  "By the way, the entrusted woman also heard a voice on the phone. , vaguely heard calling the man daddy."

  Qin Ze felt that the matter was not simple.

  But because Luo Shu has received many commissions for pranks and this incident, it is easy for women to think in the direction of ethics dramas.

  It seemed that the logic in reality could explain it, so Luo Shu felt that the matter was nothing.

  The main reason why this matter passed the screening was that the client took the initiative to contact us.

  She was actually helping Qin Ze by entrusting this matter to Qin Ze, because the matter was simple.

  Qin Ze said:

  "Is there no one else suitable to go out now?"

  Luo Shu nodded:
  "Yes, the fortune teller Huo Qiao went out to tell people's fortunes. He predicted good and bad luck and judged whether there was anything wrong. Something strange has happened."

  "Chef Yu Ji will be with his wife today." "

  Mr. Duke will be going back soon, and Cheng Wan has been assigned other tasks by me." "

  So you can only go."

  Qin Ze did not refuse.

  He felt that this was not an ethics drama about a man having an affair.

  Because on Children's Day, a family of three went out to play and were able to leave their children behind...

  This doesn't look like something a normal person would do.

  To say it was revenge on my wife was a bit understatement. To say it was a joke was a bit too strong.

  But Qin Ze very much hoped that this was not a strange incident.

  "I hope my journalist physique won't make me work overtime."
