You Huo was hunched over on the sofa with his two long legs propped up, one hand touching his ear stud in boredom.
When he heard Qin Jiu's words, he raised his eyelids, his cold gaze sweeping over the other party's face before lowering it again.
No explanation, no introspection, no response.
This attitude was clearly the most difficult type of thorn to deal with.
·
As soon as 154 entered their boss's office, he felt suffocated, as if he had arrived at the Department of Political Education.
"You were looking for me?"
With an examinee present, 154's expression became more serious, and his words carried a respectful tone.
"What's the punishment for the second violation?" Qin Jiu slowly twirled the pen in his hand and looked at 154. "I haven't been here for a while, so I don't remember clearly."
154 was silent for two seconds with a wooden face, then said, "Confinement."
Qin Jiu: "…"
You Huo's fingers paused for a moment, and he finally raised his head.
His expression was still very cold, and other than sleepy laziness, there was no emotion, but 154 felt that he was full of mockery.
Maybe it was in his genes.
Or maybe their boss attracted this kind of gaze easily.
Qin Jiu: "Other than confinement, there's nothing else?"
154 opened his mouth.
Something in the room made a "beep" sound.
You Huo's gaze moved and fell on Qin Jiu's wrist. Something suddenly flashed, and the sound came from there.
154 said, "See, it's against the rules to add punishment."
Qin Jiu lowered his eyes and casually adjusted his cuffs. The flashing light quickly dimmed.
When he looked up again, his gaze met You Huo's.
"A confinement room with only a table and a chair is a bit boring." He looked at You Huo, but his words were directed at 154.
154 nodded. "Indeed."
"Why don't you go with him? At least there's a setting. "
154: "…"
Who was he punishing?
Qin Jiu laughed. "It's just a joke. Don't take it seriously."

"Is this a hotel room by the hour?"
154 didn't say anything.
He looked down and waited for a while. When he didn't receive any new orders, he glanced over.
On the sofa, You Huo was looking out of the window. No one knew if he was in a daze or what, but he had a look that said, "Do whatever you want. If you kill him, it's my loss." His attitude was extremely improper, cold and arrogant.
As for their boss, Qin Jiu …
His hands were loosely clasped together as his gaze fell on You Huo's pale face.
154 felt that their boss was a little curious about this extremely difficult examinee, but for some reason, he was not in a good mood.
"Boss?" 154 called out to remind him.
After a while, Qin Jiu looked away and suggested to 154, "Go and trick another candidate into breaking the rules. Lock him up with him."
154: "…"
What nonsense was he talking about?
There was another "beep" from his wrist.
It should be the same as before. It was a kind of signal and warning. 154 clenched his teeth, but Qin Jiu didn't care too much.
"Don't lock him up? Just send him away?"
Beep.
Qin Jiu clicked his tongue.
He thought for a while and asked 154, "Have you cleaned up the previous detention room?"
154 looked at You Huo and was very confused. "There's a place to clean up? I've put away the rope, and I've thrown away the 'f * ck off' paper ball. "
You Huo's finger that was touching his ear stud paused for a second when he heard the paper ball. However, he continued to look out of the window with a cold face, pretending to be deaf and mute.
Qin Jiu said, "The other one."
154: "Oh, not yet. I wanted to clean it up, but there were too many examinees breaking the rules. The 922 and I didn't have time to do it. "
"Then let this dense …" Qin Jiu paused for a moment and looked at You Huo. "How should I address him?"
You Huo snorted coldly.
"Let this Mr. Heng clean it up."
You Huo: "…"
Seeing that a murder was about to happen in the office, 154 hurriedly responded and quickly invited the dangerous person downstairs with a straight face.
·
Downstairs in the utility room.
922 and 154 were looking for tools. The examinee who was really punished was leaning against the door with his arms crossed, his face gloomy.
"Don't look so bad. If we really fight, you definitely can't beat him, "922 said.
Maybe the word "jie" was too coquettish. 922's attitude towards You Huo changed a little. The way he spoke was not as businesslike as before.
You Huo didn't say anything, but from his expression, it was obvious that he was talking nonsense.
"You think 001 is a joke?" 922 said, "When I first met Boss … Which match was it? It was next to some field army base. I can't remember. Anyway, it was a street! The whole street was covered in blood. He was carrying a shoulder cannon like this in his hand — "
"Go find your bucket." 154 interrupted him with a straight face.
"Oh."
922 recalled for a while, but under 154's gaze, he straightened his face and said to You Huo, "You go first. I'll bring the bucket over later."
·
You Huo and 154 went to the long corridor first.
"This blood needs to be cleaned up." 154 pointed at the blood on the ground and walked to the door of Baldy Guan's solitary confinement room to unlock it.
"You guys used to be examinees?" You Huo suddenly asked.
154 was stunned and nodded, "Yes, a few years ago."
"How did you become an invigilator?"
154 thought for a moment and said, "Successfully passed the exam with excellent results."
You Huo frowned, "What exactly is this exam?"
154 looked at him and said vaguely, "It's a … special screening mechanism. It's all like this for exams."
You Huo said sarcastically, "What's screening? A gutsy top scorer? "
As he spoke, the feeling of being watched came again.
You Huo glanced at the ceiling. It was still a white ceiling. There were no holes, and nothing was staring at him from above.
"What kind of person would be pulled here?" He ignored the feeling and continued to ask.
154 thought for a moment and said, "An unusually dangerous person."
You Huo's face was expressionless.
154 thought of the room full of old, weak, sick, and pregnant people and said, "… That might not be accurate."
You Huo: "Then what is this? A supernatural event? "
154 shook his head, "It's not a supernatural event, it's —"
Beep.
It was that sound again.
You Huo looked back, thinking that the annoying 001 invigilator had followed them.
When he saw that there was no one behind him, he realized that the sound came from 154.
154 touched his finger.
He wore a white ring on his index finger. A red light of warning faintly seeped out from under the ring. When he saw the red light, he immediately shut up.
"What's this?" You Huo asked. "001 has it on him too."
"A violation notice." 154 turned the ring to block the light.
"You also have restrictions and rules?"
"Of course! There are many! "922's voice came.
He carried an aluminum bucket and walked over all kinds of bloodstains. "It's forbidden to talk about dangerous topics, abuse of power to bully examinees, help examinees to cheat, and the invigilator to have relations with examinees —"
You Huo: "…"
"Oh, of course, that's basically impossible," 922 said. "It's good enough that they don't fight. If they really fight, the invigilator is forbidden to violate the rules and kill examinees … Wait."
"What if the examinees kill the invigilator?" You Huo asked.
922: "…"
"So, what are the consequences of violating the rules?"
154's face turned pale.
922, who was relatively easy to talk to, was silent for two seconds. Then, he laughed dryly and said, "Don't ask, it's scary anyway. I haven't experienced it yet, and I don't want to experience it in the future. "
"So, don't ask any more dangerous questions. Isn't it good to live in peace?" 922 placed the aluminum bucket in front of You Huo. "Pass the exam well and try to get out alive first. There are some things that you will naturally know."
·
154 didn't speak anymore. He removed the lock of the confinement room.
When the door opened, a fragrance assailed their nostrils.
In addition to blood, there were also some residue stuck to the ground and walls.
You Huo's expression was disgusted. "… Usually, you guys clean these confinement rooms?"
"Of course not manually." 922 pinched his nose and said, "Otherwise, what's the difference between this and punishing us?"
"It's a little disgusting, but cleaning is better than confinement."
You Huo looked at him coldly.
922 said embarrassedly, "Uh … For you, it's better than being in the same room with our boss, right?"
After saying that, he dragged 154 and ran away in a hurry.
The corridor returned to silence.
·
It was impossible to really clean it.
You Huo leaned against the door and glanced around coldly. Then, he picked up the aluminum bucket and filled it with water, splashing it directly into the room.
The water washed away the bloodstains, and the things that stuck to the floor and walls were also washed away, turning white.
You Huo squatted down. There was a piece of bone in front of his feet. Upon closer inspection, it looked like bone residue, and there was a bundle of long black hair wrapped around it.
What kind of horror movies were stored in that baldy's head?
You Huo endured the nausea and entered the door with a cold face.
…
The whole room was cleaned, and the blood and residue filled a whole bucket.
In the top pile of hair, there was a piece of skin that had fallen off from somewhere. The skin was white as if it had been soaked in water, and it looked like it was fake.
There was a particularly eye-catching tattoo on it. It was a small and simple pattern of a wind chime flower.
·
Three hours later, 922 set off again to bring You Huo back to the examination hall.
Qin Jiu stretched his body and planned to find 154 to get some food. However, when he opened the door to his office, a bucket of flesh and blood was respectfully placed in front of his door. Next to it was a piece of paper that had been torn off at the last minute. The scribbled words were a little thin and long.
It's for you. You're welcome.
154's voice sounded, "Boss, I'm planning to roast a piece of beef. Do you want to eat anything?"
Qin Jiu: "… I won't be hungry today."
154: "???"
He walked over with an oven mitt and stared at the bloody bucket for three seconds before saying, "I don't think I'll ever be hungry in this life."
Qin Jiu took off the piece of paper and leaned against the door to read it carefully for a while. He asked 154, "What's the punishment for the third violation of the rules for the same candidate?"
He spoke at a leisurely pace, and he would even drag out certain words, so that every sentence sounded like a casual provocation.
154: "… There probably won't be a third violation, right?"
"What if there is?"
154 said carefully, "The punishment is … we'll supervise the entire examination and monitor it closely."
Qin Jiu: "…"
