Reborn with the Infinite World Panel-Chapter 55: 66 Investigation Bureau (Part 3)

"Then let me take you back to the hotel," Si Junyan said. "We’re friends, right? It’s no problem to give you a lift. Jiang Han shouldn’t misunderstand anything."

"Thanks for the trouble."

Nan Chu and Yang Qin then took Si Junyan’s car back to the hotel.

"Thank you."

"No need to be polite. Get some good rest at the hotel."

"Okay." Nan Chu nodded and then took the elevator up to the third floor of the hotel.

Once Nan Chu took the elevator away, Si Junyan drove off.

Back at the hotel, Nan Chu played music on her phone while engraving a peace charm onto the Jade Pendant.

After Jiang Han finished work, Nan Chu called Jiang Han, and they chatted for an hour before hanging up.

The next day, they got up at seven.

After the program team did their makeup and they had something to eat, they began filming.

They had to take a bus to 1+1 Creative Co., Ltd.

Since Nan Chu woke up first, she got her makeup done and ate first, so she was the first to arrive.

She swiped her card and got on the bus, waiting for the others.

Su Xiao was the second, and Xia Mingyu was the third to arrive...

Once everyone was on board, the bus started and set off.

"Nan Chu, what are you carrying in that big backpack?" Li Wenya asked.

"A water bottle, a neck pillow, pens, a notebook, and some other things."

"Why are you wearing gloves?" Su Xiao asked, puzzled.

"We’re going undercover for an investigation, right? We’ll definitely have to search for things, and the gloves are to prevent our fingerprints from being left behind." Nan Chu had never participated in a detective show before but had crammed some TV dramas.

Wearing white gloves can prevent leaving fingerprints.

Xia Mingyu gave a thumbs up, "Very meticulous."

They treated it as if it were a variety show and didn’t think much about it.

After a while, the bus stopped, and some people got on.

Nan Chu immediately noticed a man and a woman boarding; their name tags were from 1+1 Creative Co., Ltd.

Nan Chu quickly sent a message to the group.

The two NPC actors who boarded began their act, with the man nervously saying, "Recently, the things we’ve procured have mysteriously decreased. Do you think our company is haunted?"

"Don’t talk nonsense; there’s no such thing as ghosts. Someone’s definitely up to something," the woman replied.

"With fewer things, my salary gets docked. A month’s salary isn’t even enough to cover it," the man lamented.

Su Xiao asked, "Are you also from 1+1 Creative Co., Ltd.?"

"And you are?" the woman inquired.

"We are new employees in the customer service department."

"Oh, you’re from the customer service department. Hello, I’m Yong Chuangxin from the content creation department," Yong Chuangxin said.

"I’m Cai Buwan from the procurement department," Cai Buwan nodded.

Li Wenya: [These NPC names are puns!]

Su Xiao: [The writer is a genius at naming.]

Shao Zheng coughed lightly; these names are really creative.

Xia Mingyu asked in the group whether they should inquire about Ming Mei from these two NPCs.

Shao Zheng suggested not to, to avoid alerting them, and wait until they enter the company to investigate.

After a while, they arrived at 1+1 Creative Co., Ltd.

Yong Chuangxin and Cai Buwan went upstairs directly while Nan Chu and the others waited at the reception desk.

The receptionist was Bi Huanying.

Bi Huanying said, "Please wait here for a moment; the manager of the customer service department will be down soon."

"Okay." Li Wenya nodded.

After a few minutes, the head of the customer service department came down. She was a beautiful lady, "Such handsome men and pretty women. Let me introduce myself; I’m Song Yi, the manager of the customer service department."

"Here are your name tags," Song Yi distributed the name tags to everyone.

"Let’s go, and I’ll show you to your workstations," Song Yi said. "The company’s elevator is under maintenance, so we’ll take the stairs to the second floor."

"This is the break room. If you want to get some water, you can come here."

"Here is an empty conference room. If you want to use it, you can reset the code to use it."

"The empty spots are your workstations. You can pick a spot to sit."

They saw Yong Chuangxin and Cai Buwan, who had taken the bus with them in the morning.

Next to the customer service department is the content creation department, and next to that is the procurement department, followed by the planning department.

The back row houses the sales department, marketing department, execution department, and operations department.

On the second floor, there are also the IT department and product development department, and the project management department and logistics department have separate rooms.

The legal department, human resources, administration and finance department, and public relations department are all on the third floor.

The fourth floor houses the offices of the company’s director, vice president, and president.

"Our customer service department finally has new people. My name is Lu Hui."

"Hello, Brother Lu," Li Wenya said.

"Alright, alright," Lu Hui said calmly, but was internally thrilled.

[It really is Li Wenya, she’s so adorable. No wonder I’m a fan. I wonder if, after filming ends, I can get a photo with her. It would be perfect for framing.]

Nan Chu heard Lu Hui’s inner thoughts and smiled slightly.

This NPC actor is quite interesting.

"If there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask me," Lu Hui said.

"Okay, Brother Lu," Li Wenya nodded.

Xia Mingyu coughed lightly, signaling with his eyes for them to look at the company’s rules on the table.

They picked up the rules to check them out.

1. Do not talk about office romances.

2. Do not make loud noises in the corridor.

3. Do not linger at the third-floor entrance for more than two minutes.

4. Do not count the company’s stairs.

5. Do not stay in the company alone at night.

6. Do not look in the mirror in the bathroom for more than two minutes.

7. Do not discuss ghosts with colleagues.

8. Do not enter the innermost room on the second floor.

9. Do not touch the company’s dolls.

10. Do not discuss these rules with colleagues.

[Su Xiao]: These rules, numbers 3, 4, 6, 8, and 9, feel suspicious. Whatever they won’t let us do, we should try and see what happens.

[Xia Mingyu]: Agreed, Su Xiao, you should try looking in the mirror in the bathroom for two minutes later.

[Su Xiao]: [Smile] You could also try looking in the men’s room mirror.

[Xia Mingyu]: I’m a coward, I don’t dare.

[Su Xiao]: Ha, am I the only brave one here?

[Nan Chu]: I’ll try it later.

[Shao Zheng]: We can use that conference room as our discussion room.

[Li Wenya]: Brother Shao, you set the code and then send it to the group.

[Shao Zheng]: Okay.

[Ke Nian]: Mingyu and I will go try looking in the mirror for two minutes in the bathroom to see if anything happens.

[Su Xiao]: Good luck to you both.

Ke Nian stood up and gestured to Xia Mingyu, who reluctantly followed him.

The two entered the bathroom, confirmed no one was inside, and then Ke Nian started timing himself in the mirror, but after two minutes, nothing happened.

Xia Mingyu whispered, "Maybe it has to be a girl looking in the women’s room mirror?"

Ke Nian: "Not sure, let’s head back to our workstations."

They returned to their seats and sent a message to the group.

Just as Nan Chu was about to head to the bathroom, a man with a commanding presence walked over, "Everyone, meeting in the big conference room."

Nan Chu lagged a bit and walked up to Yong Chuangxin to ask, "Who was that just now?"

"That’s Director Jia Ke."

Nan Chu inquired about Director Jia Ke and gathered some information as they reached the big conference room.
