"The monthly salary during the probation period is 20,000 yuan, and an Audi A6 will be provided..."

"Monthly salary of 20,000..."

"Audi A6..."

Until he got into the car, Xia Qi didn't recover from the previous surprise.

Not long ago, he had just passed an interview with a large company and signed a high-paying probation contract.

The reason why it is called high salary is because during the probation period alone, you can get a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan, and you will also be given an Audi as a car.

This kind of benefits, for Xia Qi, who is just a junior in college and has no work experience at all, is like winning a 5 million grand prize.

It is no exaggeration to say that he had never even dreamed of such a good thing coming from heaven.

"Now that you have signed a work contract, go and perform your duties now."

Just when Xia Qi wanted to continue reminiscing, a slightly deep voice suddenly sounded beside him.

Xia Qi woke up from the previous surprise and suddenly remembered that he was not the only one sitting in the car, but also an uncle who was about forty years old.

This uncle was the one who was responsible for interviewing him before, but he spoke very little from beginning to end and acted very impatient, giving Xia Qi a perfunctory feeling.

In fact, the middle-aged uncle was very perfunctory, because he even signed a probationary contract, but... he had no idea what kind of company this was and what his job responsibilities were.

To put it simply...he signed the contract in a daze before.

Despite this, Xia Qi is not too worried that this is a scam company, because this company is located in a prime office building.

If it is not a large company that operates legally and has connections with the government, it is not qualified to occupy the prime office building. What's more, this company also dominates the third floor, which shows its strength even more.

Otherwise, no matter how good the salary package the other party gives him, he will never sign the contract hastily. After all, there are so many MLM scammers nowadays.

But Xia Qi actually wanted to ask that middle-aged uncle, what did he see in him?

He remembered clearly that during the previous interview, the middle-aged uncle neither asked him which university he came from, nor what kind of major he studied, nor even his hobbies.

He just asked him a weird question, if he was brave enough and if he was afraid of ghosts.

"Well... there is no problem in fulfilling my duties, but... you haven't told me what my duties are."

Xia Qi turned to look at the middle-aged uncle sitting in the passenger seat, tapping the steering wheel nervously with both hands.

"Your responsibility is to follow the company's arrangements and complete your assigned tasks. Please wait until you have passed the probation period to be more specific. Otherwise, it will be in vain."

The middle-aged uncle still sounded impatient, but this time Xia Qi did not tolerate him and said bluntly:

"But if you don't tell me anything, I can't even work!"

Although Xia Qi was a little anxious, the middle-aged uncle's attitude did not change at all. He raised his hand and pointed forward, commanding:

"Let's go, first go to Xinhua Bookstore, No. 34, Ping'an Street..."

Xinhua Bookstore is the largest bookstore in Fuping City, with a total of six floors. It can be said that all books on the market can be bought here.

When Xia Qi arrived here with the middle-aged uncle, Xinhua Bookstore was already closed.

Xinhua Bookstore is only open from 9 am to 6 pm, and now it is already past 7 pm. I wonder what they are doing here.

"get off."

After Xia Qi parked the car, the middle-aged uncle opened the door first and got out of the car. Although Xia Qi was confused, he still followed obediently.

As soon as I got off the car, the sticky heat immediately hit me, and it seemed that even breathing became difficult:

"This damn weather is almost ready for the sauna!"

Xia Tian Qi muttered something and followed the middle-aged uncle to walk a few steps quickly to the door of the bookstore. However, what makes Xia Qi feel strange is that the entire bookstore building is completely covered by curtains inside, which makes it look a bit eerie.

"Is it being renovated inside? Or am I in charge of supervising the work?"

Xia Qi looked at the middle-aged uncle beside him uncertainly.

The middle-aged uncle did not answer Xia Qi immediately. Instead, he took out a key from his pocket and threw it to him, and replied:

“You will be working here for some time to come, and how long you want to work here is up to you.

Your job is very simple, just stay in the library on duty every night, open the door in the morning and close it at night. "

"You want me to be the librarian? Oh no, this should be called a night shift."

Although this job sounds quite simple and he is completely qualified for it, he feels an inexplicable reluctance in his heart, as if... if he agrees to work in this bookstore, he will fall into hell.

It's just that he has no choice. It can't be said that he can't even do this kind of job.

"Okay, I just listen to you anyway, and I will do whatever you say. But I still..."

"I know what you want to ask." The middle-aged uncle seemed to see through Xia Qi's thoughts and interrupted him with a wave of his hand:

"We'll wait until you pass the probation period."

"Then how long is my probation period? You should tell me this!" Xia Qi could hardly help cursing.

"Wait for me to notify you. When will I notify you that you will become a regular employee, then you will have passed the probation period..."

5 minutes later, the middle-aged uncle left, leaving Xia Qi here alone.

Xia Xia Qi looked at the bookstore building in front of him, and then at the Audi car parked on the street not far away. The expression on his face suddenly became complicated.

But soon, Xia Qi returned to his normal state, because he felt that there was no need to worry about this kind of thing. Anyway, before he drove over, he had already gotten angry with several classmates with whom he had good relationships. As long as he didn't contact them for more than 24 hours, the police would be called immediately.

Of course, regarding his salary and benefits, he deliberately chose to conceal it.

Because even if he told his classmates about this kind of thing, no one would believe him. They would only think that he was 10 million percent cheated.

After that, Xia Qi walked around the neighborhood again, bought some snacks and drinks in a convenience store, and then returned to Xinhua Bookstore.

Using the key given to him by the middle-aged uncle, Xia Qi tried several times before unlocking the door of the bookstore, and then walked in uneasily.

The bookstore was dark, and because of the curtains, there wasn't even a little light from the street lights. It was a completely dark environment.

Fortunately, Xia Qi has been more courageous than ordinary people since he was a child, so he still has some resistance to dark environments and will not be too scared to walk.

Turning on the flashlight of his mobile phone, Xia Qi locked the door with some difficulty. After all, there were so many books inside, and if any were missing, it would definitely be his responsibility.

After finishing all this, Xia Tian Qi did not go inside anymore. He turned a corner and came to a French window, planning to sit here and have something to eat first.

However, before he could put down the plastic bag he was carrying, a series of gentle footsteps suddenly came into his ears.

"who is it!!!"

The footsteps frightened Xia Qi. After all, he had always thought that he was the only one here.

However, at this moment, there seemed to be another person suddenly appearing out of thin air. The point is, it is difficult to say that this person is not a thief.

"You didn't come in early to steal, and you didn't come in late to steal, but you waited for me to come in and steal here on duty! It's really **** irritating!"

Thinking of this, Xia Tian Qi's heart suddenly burst into flames, but of course he would not rush to fight with the other party, let alone fighting too hard, what if he was worried wrongly, and the other party was not a thief?

But no matter what, for the sake of safety, it is better to call the middle-aged uncle first, and also to shock that person.

What made Xia Qi miscalculated was that his mobile phone had no signal in the bookstore, so he could only make a call to the police.

"It can't be a staff member in the bookstore. Otherwise, why didn't you turn on the light and instead approached me sneakily?"

Thinking of this, Xia Qi decisively called the police. However, his phone suddenly turned off after just one ring.

"Damn, what a hell!"

The phone suddenly turned off, which made Xia Qi completely scared, what if the other party had a knife in his hand.

The more she thought about it, the weaker Xia Qi's legs became, and she didn't dare to stay where she was. She hurriedly ran towards the door of the bookstore based on her feelings, trying to unlock the door and escape from the bookstore.

However, because he couldn't see anything, Xia Qi accidentally bumped into a bookshelf while running, which made him dizzy and fell to the ground with a scream.

However, the faint footsteps behind him have no intention of disappearing at all. Instead, they seem to be accelerating, with the frequency getting faster and faster...

Until...some dazzling lights suddenly came on in the bookstore.

Because he had adapted to the previous darkness, Xia Qi was suddenly stabbed so hard that he couldn't open his eyes. His body instinctively leaned against the bookshelf at one end to avoid being attacked from behind.

The dazzling feeling quickly disappeared, and Xia Qi regained his vision. Then, a young man about the same age as him came into his sight.

The young man was wearing a somewhat tattered work clothes, with a somewhat gloomy face, looking at Xia Qi without saying a word.

"Who are you? What are you doing in the bookstore!"

After seeing the other party's appearance clearly, Xia Qi yelled at him.

"Are you new here on duty?"

The young man was not as nervous as Xia Qi. At this time, he spoke in an inappropriate manner.

"Yes, yes." Xia Qi nodded in astonishment and asked again:

"who are you?"

"Just like you, I am the librarian here." The young man said slowly.

"You really scared me to death. I thought you were a thief before! Why didn't you turn on the light?"

"The circuit breaker just tripped, so I went to the main gate, and then I came back when I heard some movement here. I thought it was a thief."

The young man's answer solved Xia Qi's previous knot. The reason why he didn't turn on the light after coming in was not that he didn't want to turn it on, but that he didn't know where the switch was.

After taking a worried look at the young man's work permit and confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, Xia Qi finally let go of his guard against the young man. After all, no matter what, it's always good to have one more person to talk to.

However, after a brief contact, Xia Qi found that the young man was not a person willing to talk much, so he spent a long time before asking some personal information about him from the young man's mouth.

The young man's name is Zhang Xiaoshun, and he has been here since he graduated from college. Because the rent nearby is too high and he has no girlfriend, he simply lives in the bookstore. This not only makes it easier to take care of books, but also saves a lot of money.

Because Zhang Xiaoshun didn't want to talk much, Xia Qi didn't bother to find another topic. Speaking of which, what he met today was the kind of person who couldn't hold back a fart for a long time.

Starting from that middle-aged uncle and then to this Zhang Xiaoshun, they all made him feel irritated.

Walking to the window, Xia Qi took out a piece of bread and a box of milk from the plastic bag. After thinking about it, he threw a bottle of drink to Zhang Xiaoshun, but Zhang Xiaoshun didn't even look at him.

"Fuck, everyone is so fucking stupid!"

He cursed Zhang Xiaoshun in his heart, but Xia Qi suppressed his words and did not have an attack. He tried pressing the power button and found that the phone could not be turned on no matter what, so he couldn't help but ask Zhang Xiaoshun:

"Is there a place to charge here?"

"There is a rest room on the second floor where you can charge your batteries, and there are chargers inside."

Zhang Xiaoshun pointed to the second floor and answered very simply.

Xia Xia Qi glanced at Zhang Xiaoshun, curled his mouth quietly, then approached him and said:

"Then I'll go up and charge for a while, and then I'll come down later."

After saying that, regardless of whether Zhang Xiaoshun agreed or not, Xia Qi directly passed him and walked quickly to the stairs.
