Embers Ad Infinitum

Jiang Baimian's eyes were fixed on Xiyu's face, trying to see if she was joking.

After all, if the two parties become trustworthy companions, comrades who live and die together, and are members of the same small organization, it is entirely possible for them to play pranks and joke on each other.

Xiyu's expression was solemn, and there was no smile hidden in the corners of his eyes or on his lips.

She seems to sincerely respect the "command" of holding the year.

The dream that Xiaohong and Xiaobai had is true... Although the information passed to us by other forces has a certain degree of fallacy, the essence is correct... Minister Xiyu is indeed a believer in "Si Ming" , but he does not belong to the "Life Sacrifice" cult... Mei Shouan should be the same... Thoughts in Jiang Baimian's mind raced, and he forced himself to calm down.

There was no visible change in Shang Jianyao's expression, and no one knew whether he had switched personalities.

He asked curiously:

"Minister Xiyu, which sect do you belong to?"

"There is no sect." Xiyu smiled and shook his head, "Believing in 'Si Ming' does not require a sect."

Shang Jianyao asked:

"Then who made you believe in the 'commanding' of holding the year?"

Xiyu picked up the azure ceramic teacup, took a sip and said:

"It's Director Su."

Sure enough... Although Jiang Baimian had already guessed it, when he heard the answer, he still felt a turmoil in his heart.

The company's problems are serious!

A director on the board of directors secretly believes in executive power!

"Oh." Shang Jianyao suddenly realized, "Apart from Director Su, do other directors also believe in 'Si Ming' to carry out the New Year's Eve?"

"I don't know." Xiyu shook his head gently.

Shang Jianyao turned to ask: "Then what do you think of the 'Life Sacrifice' cult?"

Xiyu replied seriously:

"It's too wanton. I can understand their respect for 'Si Ming', but their behavior is too outrageous. Just like you said, they must have gone astray and recited the wrong scriptures."

Well, it's not that extreme... There is still room for salvation... Jiang Baimian began to think about what to do next:

Shang Jianyao's "thought implantation" can exist for a long time without counterexamples and opportunities, but it is impossible for the two of them to follow Xiyu all the time, pay close attention to the information she receives, and provide timely corrections.

Therefore, after the two leave Xiyu, how long will it take for the other party to get rid of the influence and discover the problem? It is completely uncontrollable - with good luck, Xiyu can go to and from get off work normally in the next few days without feeling anything abnormal. With bad luck, he will turn around Su Yu's call and chatting with Xiyu about certain things would wake her up suddenly.

For this reason, Jiang Baimian felt that he and Shang Jianyao must seize the window period to do something.

In a flash, she had two plans:

First, without knowing who else on the board of directors had problems, he used Xiyu’s computer and account to send the matter to all directors in a mass email;

The second is to find a way to go to the bottom to meet the big boss and report the matter.

To be cautious, Jiang Baimian decided to carry out two plans at the same time:

When Xiyu was temporarily with him, he obtained permission to enter the management floor through her, and used the safe passage there to go to the bottom floor;

At the same time, set up a scheduled sending of emails to prevent the director in question from being informed of the situation prematurely, and send people to intercept the two of you at the lowest entrances in advance.

And if the timing is well grasped and the mass mailing causes chaos, Jiang Baimian feels that it will be much easier for him and Shang Jianyao to enter the lowest level.

Time waits for no one, so Jiang Baimian does whatever he thinks of.

She looked at Xiyu with a smile:

"Minister, can I use your computer?"

"Okay." The current Xiyu didn't think there was any problem with this.

Seeing Jiang Baimian walking towards Xi Yu's desk, Shang Jian Yao jumped up:

"I'm here to help!"

He moved closer to Jiang Baimian and occupied the place so that Xiyu could not come over to check on the situation.

Bang bang bang, Jiang Baimian typed quickly, writing his plan in the document so that Shang Jianyao could see it.

"Yeah." Shang Jianyao nodded frequently with a look of appreciation.

Jiang Baimian, who didn't know what he was playing, deleted the plan he had just written and stated that Xi Yu and Su Yu were followers of the "Si Ming" who held the Sui Sui Festival, and Mei Shouan was suspected of this.

Then, she opened the email system, logged in with Xiyu's default account, and created a new email, targeting all directors on the board of directors.

After copying and pasting the content, Jiang Baimian chose to send the email a quarter of an hour later.

At this time, Shang Jianyao had already further persuaded Xiyu according to the plan, asking her not to touch the computer for half an hour, and allowed the two of them to go to the management area, which is the fifth floor of the underground building, to secretly meet with Director Su.

Although Xiyu's office is on the 646th floor, he often goes to the fifth floor for meetings, and his rank is sufficient, and he is Su Yu's confidant, so he agreed to Shang Jianyao's request without any difficulty, and found any reason to go there. I called them to get the corresponding permission.

After leaving her office, Jiang Baimian let out a long breath.

She and Shang Jianyao looked at each other. Neither of them spoke, and they went straight to the elevator that led to the management area.

On the way, Jiang Baimian habitually wanted to ask, "Do you think it's worth making such a decision and taking such a risk? Don't you regret it?" But then he remembered that the person next to him was Shang Jianyao, who was more radical and adventurous than himself. , even more recklessly.

"Pangu Biology" is our home, no matter what, I must maintain its stability... Jiang Baimian said in his heart, and then through the opened elevator door, he pressed the number "5".

When the elevator went down, Jiang Baimian, who had adjusted his mentality, laughed and said to Shang Jianyao:

"Why are not you talking?"

Shang Jianyao raised his head and looked at the surveillance camera in the elevator:

"There are some words that are inappropriate to say in such a public place."

"What you said is very ambiguous." Jiang Baimian laughed and cursed.

She seemed very relaxed, as if she had really gone to the management area to report on a certain task and was familiar with the work.

After a while, the elevator reached the fifth floor, and the lobby door opened at the same time.

After Shang Jianyao walked out, he turned his wrist and looked at his watch:

“Oh, it’s early!

"I can only squat in the corridor and wait."

At the exit of the elevator, guards wearing bionic smart armor looked over at the same time.

Although he couldn't see their expressions, Jiang Baimian could vaguely sense their resistance.

"How rude!" She scolded Shang Jianyao in unison.

Shang Jianyao took the opportunity to sigh and said:

"Then let's wait on the stairs so as not to disturb other people's eyes."

His series of words all used "thinking guidance", so the guards had no doubts about his and Jiang Baimian's behavior of turning into the safe passage and took it for granted.

In the lighted stairs, Jiang Baimian lowered his voice and said:

“There are surveillance cameras.

"I'll be responsible for pointing out the location later, and you provide the interference."

Shang Jianyao nodded and spread his spirit.

When it was time to send the email on time, Jiang Baimian forced himself to wait patiently for another three minutes so that the problem could ferment and create chaos.

As time passed by, Jiang Baimian exhaled and said:

"action!"

Without any hesitation, she walked down the stairs nimbly, raising her right hand from time to time to point out the location of the surveillance camera to Shang Jianyao.

Shang Jianyao followed Jiang Baimian closely, disturbing the images of one surveillance camera after another, causing them to fall into a situation like a broken light.

Such anomalies will inevitably attract the attention of the monitors, but their first thought must be that the circuit is faulty and they have to send someone over to check, and then they will consider simultaneously raising the alert level in this area.

This is the time difference that Jiang Baimian was fighting for!

With the abilities of the two of them, as long as they don't encounter the highest level of security, they can hope to break into the big boss's door.

With great physical fitness, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao descended the five flights of stairs and soon arrived at the bottom stairwell.

Suddenly, Jiang Baimian stopped in shock and blurted out:

"No one is watching outside."

This is simply unreasonable!

How could the level of vigilance at the bottom where the big boss lives be so relaxed?

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Baimian flashed some guesses:

Could it be that the big boss had died long ago and left no heir, so the directors kept the mourning secret and hired people who were good at imitating accents to coerce the emperor to order the princes?

"I didn't sense it either." Shang Jianyao confirmed that Jiang Baimian's discovery was correct.

Jiang Baimian thought for a moment and said decisively:

"We are already here, we can only move forward, not back!"

She stretched out her left hand and pushed open the stairwell door.

There was literally no one outside, no guards.

After exiting the stairwell, the two came to a corridor and saw that the place was paved with neat brown floor tiles. There were murals, sculptures, and various decorations on the walls on both sides, which looked very classical.

"The big boss has good taste." Under such a tense situation, Shang Jianyao actually commented on the environment here.

Jiang Baimian glanced at this guy and started running forward.

She told Shang Jianyao with her gestures and movements:

Don't talk about things that you don't have, and quickly find the big boss's room!

Shang Jianyao also started running, but neither of them forgot to pay attention to their surroundings to prepare for possible attacks.

Under the illumination of fluorescent lamps on the ceiling, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao quickly ran to the end of the corridor.

What appeared in front of them was a silver-white metal wall. In the middle of the wall was a door that slid open to the side. There was sophisticated electronic equipment next to the door.

At this time, the door was not completely closed, revealing a dark, thick gap.

"Is the big boss's residence behind the door?" Jiang Baimian muttered to himself.

She approached cautiously, ready to check.

At this moment, Shang Jianyao reached out to stop her.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Baimian thought that Shang Jianyao would run faster and more recklessly than him.

Shang Jianyao replied seriously:

“This door looks familiar to me.

"It should be the door in room '1215'."

"1215..." Jiang Baimian was startled for a moment, and then remembered that this was the first room that Shang Jianyao explored after entering the "Soul Corridor".

At that time, he encountered a slightly opened metal door in Room No. 1215. He suspected that the owner of the room had experienced something extremely terrible behind the door, which left a serious psychological shadow, so he decided to fight with an eight-to-two ratio. Voted, gave up exploring, and got out of there.

After that, Shang Jianyao never encountered room "1215" again.

And now he actually said that the door in front of him that seemed to lead to the big boss's residence was very similar to the door in room "1215"!
