Chapter 107
Halfway there, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at Xiao Wang, who was standing there as if struck dumb.
“Have them go somewhere else to use the bathroom. The Company has to pay for the water to flush the toilets too. We can’t waste it on them.”
Xiao Wang stared blankly at the Bald Male Manager’s retreating back.
That broad back gradually seemed to turn into the shape of a dog.
Had a man turned into a dog, or had a dog turned into a man?
Yun Youyou hadn’t expected the Bald Male Manager to be this stingy either.
The ghosts who came to work at this Company really had the worst luck. Even after becoming ghosts, they still couldn’t escape a capitalist’s oppression.
Yun Youyou completely ignored the fact that she was the real culprit behind the deadly dishes.
That afternoon.
Just as he had said that morning, the Bald Male Manager decided to take the new arrivals to the factory for an on-site inspection.
“Xiao Wang, go tell the driver to get ready.”
Bald Manager waved Xiao Wang over.
Xiao Wang said, “But the driver is still fighting someone for a toilet stall right now. He might not be able to come for a while.”
The Bald Male Manager frowned. “Forget it. Then you drive.”
Yun Youyou didn’t know how to drive. As for the others, some were minors, and the rest still hadn’t gotten their licenses.
Xiao Wang said, “But back then, I died right after I got my license.”
The Bald Male Manager’s expression darkened. “Are you saying you want me to drive myself?”
This time, Xiao Wang didn’t dare say anything else. Meek and trembling, he went off to drive.
A seven-seat business van was forcibly packed with eight people.
Aside from the Twins, there was actually a pair of Twin Sisters too.
They sat fearfully in the back row, and Yun Youyou sat in the same row with them.
The remaining boy squeezed into the last row with the Twins.
Logically, Bald Manager should have sat in the back, but his enormous body simply couldn’t fit, so he had no choice but to suffer the indignity of taking the front passenger seat.
Xiao Wang gripped the steering wheel with trembling hands.
Yun Youyou was someone who obeyed traffic laws very strictly.
Out of kindness, she reminded him, “Don’t forget your seat belt.”
In a fluster, Xiao Wang let go of the steering wheel and pulled out the seat belt to fasten it.
No one knew what button he had pressed.
All they saw was the driver’s seat suddenly go whoosh and recline flat.
Yun Youyou looked at Xiao Wang, who had abruptly fallen into her arms: “……”
Bald Manager beside him: “……”
Brat, did you do that on purpose?
Xiao Wang was so embarrassed he wanted to die again. He quickly reached out and fumbled wildly with the controls, raising the seatback again.
After finally returning to his original position, another problem cropped up.
The Bald Male Manager got angry just looking at him.
“What are you staring at? If you keep staring, are you going to make a flower bloom out of it?”
Xiao Wang said pitifully, “This car has a manual transmission, but I learned on an automatic…”
“Manual, automatic-aren’t they both transmissions? As long as you can make the car move, that’s enough! If you really can’t, get out and push the car for me!”
The Bald Male Manager’s patience had completely run out.
Xiao Wang could only force himself to do it.
After tentatively feeling around for a while, the car finally started moving.
Xiao Wang let out a sigh of relief.
Before he could finish exhaling, his whole body suddenly went rigid.
Yun Youyou looked at him in confusion. “What’s wrong? Which mage froze you solid?”
Stiffly, Xiao Wang showed everyone the gearshift in his hand.
“What do I do? I accidentally pulled it out!”
Everyone in the vehicle: “!!!”
Only Yun Youyou calmly took a lunch box out of her bag.
“Perfect, there’s a box. We can use it to hold our ashes later.”
Everyone in the vehicle was about to lose their minds.
For a moment, they even forgot to wonder why Yun Youyou had a lunch box in her bag.
Although the people in the car were panicking, they gradually realized that even with the gearshift snapped off, the car seemed to keep driving just fine.
Xiao Wang shoved the gearshift he had yanked out back into place. It could more or less still be used.
The manager beside him was utterly speechless.
Goddamn it. Going out with a bunch of idiots was seriously unlucky!
At long last, the car began moving steadily along the road.
The Player participants in the back all let out a sigh of relief.
More terrifying than a ghost was a ghost with terrible driving skills.
The Bald Male Manager rolled down the passenger-side window to get some air, hoping it would blow away the anger in his chest.
But then Xiao Wang’s trembling voice came from beside him again.
“Manager, which way is the factory?”
The Bald Manager fell silent for a moment. Then he exploded.
But he forgot about the roof above him and slammed his head into it, raising a bump on his scalp.
Clutching the huge lump on his head, he roared at Xiao Wang, “If you don’t know the way, then why the hell are you driving?! Couldn’t you have asked earlier? Tell me, what is the thing under your nose? Hurry up and tell me!”
Xiao Wang got sprayed all over the face with spit. Seeing the Bald Male Manager in such a deranged state, he cautiously said, “The thing under my nose is… the philtrum?”
The Bald Male Manager nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
If he could, he really wanted to spray Xiao Wang to death with that one mouthful.
Seeing the Bald Male Manager’s expression grow uglier and uglier, Xiao Wang’s heart tightened, and he hurriedly changed his answer.
“Could it be… the upper chin?”
The Bald Male Manager was so angry he nearly lost oxygen.
He was about to become the first ghost in the world to die of sheer rage.
Rage-induced ghost blood clots. Rage-induced ghost strokes. Rage-induced ghost hysteria.
Xiao Wang studied the Bald Male Manager’s face and hesitated. “So… it’s not the upper chin?”
The Bald Male Manager leaned over and yanked open the door on the driver’s side.
He lashed out with a kick, slamming his foot into Xiao Wang’s butt and sending him flying out of the car.
“Upper chin, lower chin-why don’t you just get the hell out!”
Yun Youyou was listening with great interest from the back.
Not bad. Those lines actually kind of rhymed.
Xiao Wang landed on his backside on the ground and pitifully watched the car drive away.
After furiously kicking Xiao Wang out, the Bald Male Manager climbed into the driver’s seat himself.
Damn it. If you wanted something done right, you had to do it yourself.
The Bald Male Manager rummaged through the front compartment for a while and finally found a map.
The Player participants in the back: …
What the hell? After all that fuss, it turned out he didn’t know how to get there either.
Because of the Bald Male Manager’s tyranny, everyone only complained in their hearts and did not say it out loud.
The black business van twisted and turned along the road, soon veering onto a mountain path.
Tall, lush trees stood at the foot of the mountain like Giant.
Their dense leaves blocked out the sunlight completely.
For a while, no one in the car spoke.
Su Zehan sneakily pulled everyone into a group chat.
Su Zehan sent a message in the chat: I feel like we’ve gotten onto a ghost car.
Wasn’t this literally a ghost car?
Even the driver in the front was a ghost.
By sheer accident, Yun Youyou had once again infiltrated the Player group.
Excellent. One identity, two different experiences.
By day, she was a cute, soft, adorable female Player. By night, she was a sexy, charming, ice-cold ghost.
This setup actually seemed pretty exciting!
