Hearing Ren Jie's answer, Shang Jianyao thought for two seconds and continued to ask:
"Who is the saint?"
Ren Jie smiled:
"That's not what you should know now.
"When you become a 'leader', the Holy Master will take the initiative to summon you.
"At that time, you will know who he is."
Shang Jianyao asked without hesitation:
"Then how do you become a 'leader'?"
"Enough performance." Ren Jie was very patient in the face of the freshly-baked godson.
Without waiting for Shang Jianyao to ask again, she added:
"As long as you behave well enough, the Holy Master will not ignore you."
As she spoke, her expression became serious again:
"The Holy Master is always watching us."
At this time, people who were returning one after another because the street lights were about to go out passed by one after another, Ren Jie glanced left and right and said:
"Anything else to talk about later."
Shang Jianyao first nodded slightly, and then said quickly:
"I really can't shout;
"Forget what happened just now..."
After speaking, he turned his head and left, not giving Ren Jie a chance to ask.
Ren Jie was stunned for a while, then laughed and scolded:
"This kid, he's still embarrassed..."
…
The next morning, Shang Jianyao had breakfast and came to room 14 on the 647th floor.
Jiang Baimian was earlier than him and had already read some materials there.
"So early?" Jiang Baimian raised his head and laughed, "Do you want to practice fighting again?"
She looked eager to try.
Shang Jianyao walked to her desk, pulled out the chair and sat down.
He didn't make any greetings, and asked directly:
"Team leader, does the ability of an Awakened person cause cardiac arrest?"
"I don't know very well. I don't know enough about the abilities of the Awakened." Jiang Baimian replied with a little doubt, "If it's not a direct cardiac arrest, but an indirect way, then I know a , Hehe, you should also be able to think of, yes, that nightmare horse's 'real nightmare' ability. Once you die in a dream, reality is likely to manifest as cardiac arrest."
"I didn't sleep at that time, and I was working?" Shang Jianyao asked without concealment.
"So detailed? Did it really happen?" Jiang Baimian was so keen, he immediately noticed something was wrong.
She immediately thought of the whole news last night, frowned slightly and said:
"Wang, what is Wang, the director of the 'Material Supply Market' who died of cardiac arrest
"You suspect he was killed by some Awakened
"Is there any evidence? Inside the company, there are not many people who die every year because of heart problems."
Shang Jianyao said frankly:
"I joined a sect within the company, which often gathers to distribute communion.
"Yesterday morning, they accused Wang Yafei of blaspheming the sacred birthplace at the gathering, and used power for personal gain to suppress a member of the sect.
"At that time, the 'leader' in charge of our floor said: 'God will punish sinners'.
"In less than four hours, Wang Yafei died."
"This is indeed a bit suspicious." Jiang Baimian commented pertinently, and then came to his senses, "Wait, you said you joined a secret sect? Is there any religious belief or invasion in the company?"
That's the big problem!
"Believe in the life of the commander, the executive year of December." Shang Jianyao's tone was very calm, as if he was discussing who the principal of the primary school on this floor was.
Jiang Baimian wanted to laugh when he heard it, but also felt a little weird. Without going around in circles, he asked directly:
"Since you think the cult is suspicious, go directly to the 'Order Supervisor' and report it.
"This is your meritorious performance, don't worry about being implicated.
"Or, are you reluctant to that order?"
"One thing, their sacrament is delicious." Shang Jianyao replied sincerely.
Jiang Baimian had already given up the idea of seeing Yao's theory with Shang, and squeezed out a smile and said:
"For this reason?"
Shang Jianyao was silent for two seconds, then said seriously:
"Most members of the sect are good people, and they all joined the sect because of some sad past.
"They didn't do anything bad. They gathered together mainly to find spiritual sustenance and comfort each other."
Jiang Baimian nodded thoughtfully:
"You are worried that after the company knows about the cult, they will be implicated and severely punished
"If it turns out that Wang Yafei really died normally, the whole thing is just a coincidence, then the sect was reported and dealt with, is it really wronged?"
Shang Jianyao said "um", saying that this is his concern.
Jiang Baimian's eyes moved slightly, and he turned to a smile:
"You are willing to tell me the secrets related to the order because I am trustworthy?"
"Yes." Shang Jianyao didn't hide it.
The smile on Jiang Baimian's face became more and more obvious.
At this time, Shang Jianyao added another sentence:
"Even if it's not trustworthy, I can rely on the ability of the 'reasoning clown' to make you trustworthy."
"..." Jiang Baimian squinted his eyes, raised his left hand, and let the tiny silver-white electric arcs run around in his palm, "You repeat what you just said."
"Yes, you are worthy of trust." Shang Jianyao followed his good manner.
Jiang Baimian put down his palm and asked casually:
"Why would you think of talking to me?"
"You have a better brain." Shang Jianyao was quite honest.
Jiang Baimian smiled again:
"It's good to know."
She asked curiously:
"If you let yourself do it, how are you going to handle this?"
Shang Jianyao has considered this question for a long time and answered very fluently:
"Find the holy teacher above the 'guide', find the person who gave the order, find the awakened person who carried out the task, find those restless senior leaders of the sect, and secretly kill them all.
"This way, the cult is completely harmless, a place where people share knowledge, troubles, and food."
What he said was like going to the "material supply market" to buy some vegetables on a rest day.
Jiang Baimian didn't know how to evaluate it for a while, and it took a few seconds before he said:
"This is a bit difficult... Awakeners with the ability to 'sudden cardiac arrest' are not easy to deal with, especially in such a narrow environment inside the company. Besides, there may not be only one Awakener in the sect, and maybe some high-level leaders are too. You have to kill them all, the difficulty is too high, and you will most likely die.
"Besides, killing so many people, it's basically impossible to cover up the past.
"Are you treating the company as a decoration?"
With this idea in mind, Jiang Baimian continued:
"Although you have the ability of 'reasoning clowns', you can't do your own investigations like the company's leadership, which can mobilize all resources, quickly find out the truth, and solve problems.
"So, my advice is: report to the company.
"As for the ordinary members of the religious group, as long as they don't do anything bad, the company's punishment will not be too severe, so I will teach you a lesson. After all, everyone is a precious resource.
"And, you can use your credit to help them mitigate their punishment."
Seeing Shang Jian Yao with a thoughtful expression, she added:
“Everyone lives here and definitely wants the company to be stable.
"If you keep covering similar problems and try to solve them on your own, it will only get worse."
Shang Jian Yao got up:
"I'm going to the 'Order Supervision Bureau'."
"Stop, stop! Don't be in such a hurry, I haven't finished yet!" Jiang Baimian hurriedly called the guy back.
Shang Jianyao sat down again, looked at Jiang Baimian, and waited for her to say the next words.
Jiang Baimian said "um":
"You tell the matter again first, and tell it all over again."
Shang Jianyao made memories without concealment, and even talked about what time he went to the toilet.
Jiang Baimian listened very carefully and did not interrupt Shang Jianyao's remarks, so as not to affect his thinking and cause omissions.
But even though she was already very familiar with Shang Jianyao's style, she still opened her mouth slightly, surprised and wanted to laugh after hearing that the other party actually called her mother in order to "win the trust" of Ren Jie.
"... Whenever I feel that I know you enough, you refresh my understanding again." Jiang Baimian sighed helplessly.
Then, she nodded slightly and said:
"There's something illogical about this."
"Where?" Shang Jianyao asked very cooperatively.
Jiang Baimian organized the language and said:
"If Wang Yafei's death is two or three weeks, or a month later, then I don't think there is any problem, and it's a normal progress.
"But at the beginning of 6 in the morning, the 'leader' just defined Wang Yafei as a sinner and said that God would punish the sinner. After more than three hours, Wang Yafei died of cardiac arrest.
"This will bring about an obvious problem, which is that all the members present at the time will link Wang Yafei's death with divine punishment."
"Yes, that's it." Shang Jianyao affirmed Jiang Baimian's statement, "Everyone thinks so."
Jiang Baimian suddenly smiled and asked back:
"Then how did they react
"Is there awe, fear, panic, and daze?"
Shang Jianyao nodded.
Jiang Baimian continued:
"Under this explosive emotional impact, different members will inevitably make different choices because of their own personalities and experiences.
"I admit that most people will become more and more reverent of the gods, completely believe in the existence of the commander, and become extremely religious, but there will definitely be a small number of members, either because of fear, or because of panic, or because of a sense of guilt and a sense of justice. , thought of reporting it to the company.
"You are a stark example of that."
Shang Jianyao thought about it for a while, and probably understood what Jiang Baimian meant:
"If Wang Yafei's death is a month later, everyone has a buffer, the impact will not be so big, it will be more associations and guesses, and become more fearful of gods, but now, under such a big impact, different people Are people likely to make different choices?"
Jiang Baimian nodded solemnly and said:
"That brings up a thought.
"Why are those senior leaders of the clergy sure that no one will betray them
"Two explanations. First, they are religious lunatics who don't think about the consequences or their own safety. They just want to judge sinners. Second, they are sure that the betrayal and reporting will not succeed."
Jiang Baimian immediately looked into Shang Jianyao's eyes and asked seriously:
"Which one do you think it is?"
