After Zheng Yubai ran to a nearby bank to withdraw money, he immediately rushed back to sign the contract. It was only then that he learned that the tattooed beauty was named Xu Jin and the lovely beauty was named Yu Luo. They both graduated from college not long ago and worked in a nearby building.
Xu Jin counted the money and said to Zheng Yubai, "The amount is fine, but you have to read the terms carefully. If you take the initiative to move out early, neither the deposit nor the rent will be returned to you."
"I understand." Zheng Yubai nodded repeatedly. With such a nice room and two beautiful roommates, how could anyone want to move out early
"Okay, you can move in anytime." Xu Jin said.
Zheng Yubai put the contract into his arms, took a key, and was about to ask a few more questions when a piece of music started to play from his pocket.
It’s not the cute singing of children, but the theme song of “Years of Friendship” from Young and Dangerous: “In the rush of wind and rain, unrestrained awakening and drunkenness, all the stories seem to have happened…”
What was supposed to come finally came. Zheng Yubai took out the phone issued to him by Black Star Company. The caller ID was hidden, so he didn't know who was calling.
"I have to go out first. I'll move in when I have time." Zheng Yubai waved at the two beauties and walked out while answering the phone.
"Is it Zheng Yubai?" A deep voice came out.
"It's me." Zheng Yubai replied quickly.
"Someone will pick you up at the gate of Hailong Community at 8 o'clock in the evening." The phone was hung up before he finished speaking. Zheng Yubai stared blankly at the rows of tall buildings in Hailong Community three blocks away. Does he work there
After Zheng Yubai hurried home for dinner, he said hello to his aunt and said he would be working the night shift. He then changed into his work clothes and waited at the gate of Hailong Community early.
Hailong Community is a relatively early large community in Jinghai City, and was once a symbol of wealth. However, as low-volume villas have become increasingly popular in recent years, this place has gradually fallen into decline. However, even so, Zheng Yubai would have to work for fifty years without eating or drinking to buy a house here.
Time passed by second by second. Zheng Yubai was dressed in a black suit, just like a bodyguard in a movie. The residents who passed by him whispered and pointed, as if they were looking at a mental patient. Zheng Yubai was very depressed. Fortunately, it was already late at night. He hid in a corner, thinking depressedly about what the job of the apartment manager was like. While he was thinking about it, the pointer pointed to 8 o'clock.
Who is the person who is coming to pick me up? Zheng Yubai was just guessing when an old lady came up to him carrying a basket of vegetables.
"She probably wants to ask for directions..." Zheng Yubai thought, and just as he was about to say that he didn't know the way here either, the old lady spoke.
"Are you Zheng Yubai? Come with me."
Zheng Yubai was shocked and watched the old lady slowly walk into the community, and hurriedly followed her.
The gang's contact person is an old lady? This is too ridiculous. But thinking about the work I do, everything seems to be so logical.
Who cares? The old lady might turn into a two-gun old lady. These days, anything can happen.
"Auntie, let me help you carry the vegetables." Zheng Yubai saw that the old lady was struggling and quickly reached out to help.
The old lady gave Zheng Yubai a look of approval and said, "You are a pretty good kid. You know how to respect the elderly, unlike those dozens of kids before. They deserved to be beaten into idiots."
"Beat him like an idiot..." Zheng Yubai felt something was wrong.
"Hey, look at you young people, there are so many jobs in the society, why do you choose to come here to be administrators? Do you think this is an easy job? In my opinion, even robbing a bank is safer than here." The old lady led Zheng Yubai into a building while nagging all the way.
"Auntie, this... can you explain it more clearly?" Zheng Yubai was stunned by the old lady's words.
"Don't you know?" the old lady asked curiously.
The elevator door opened, Zheng Yubai followed the old lady in, and saw her press the button for the 17th floor.
"It's my first day at work today, so I'm not sure..." Zheng Yubai watched the elevator rise floor by floor.
"You will know soon." The old lady smiled slightly. Somehow, this smile seemed a little scary in Zheng Yubai's eyes.
The elevator stopped at the 17th floor. Zheng Yubai followed the old lady closely and turned into the corridor.
The voice-activated lights in the corridor lit up, and the lights were dim. Zheng Yubai felt that the atmosphere in front of him was very familiar, and suddenly remembered that most horror movies have such scenes. If this was a horror movie, then the old lady walking in front of him might suddenly turn into a green-faced evil ghost or zombie at any time and turn around to chase him.
Fortunately, this is not a horror movie. The old lady brought Zheng Yubai to the door of Room 1707 and knocked on the door.
The door opened. An old man with squinting eyes opened the door. The old woman said to Zheng Yubai, "Go in. The master is waiting for you inside."
Zheng Yubai walked in and the door slammed behind him.
Zheng Yubai saw a large living room. The large living room was converted into a large kitchen, with boxes of food and drinks piled up on all sides. It looked more like a restaurant kitchen than a home. The old lady placed the dishes on the large dining table in the middle and pointed to the bedroom door: "The master is inside, go ahead."
Zheng Yubai thanked the old lady, walked to the door, and knocked twice. The old lady smiled and said, "He can't hear you, just go in."
Zheng Yubai said "oh" and opened the door, and a magical scene appeared before his eyes.
“Shouldn’t this be a bedroom…” Zheng Yubai looked at the huge space in front of him with a wry smile. He really couldn’t understand what magical things this Black Star Company would bring to him.
Not far in front of him, two well-dressed men were playing billiards at a standard snooker table. The one who was hitting the ball had excellent skills, and scored several times in a row with superb shots, which was comparable to that of a professional player.
Behind the pool table there was a row of large sofas, on which sat several old men, holding cups filled with scarlet liquid, chatting while watching a huge LCD TV.
On the left side of Zheng Yubai there was a bar where a man and a woman were chatting animatedly; on the right side there were two card tables, one for mahjong and the other for poker, and further away, there were actually ten slot machines.
What kind of place is this? It's more like a bar anyway.
A man came over. He was as thin as a monkey. Zheng Yubai even wondered if he would be blown away when the wind blew in Jinghai.
"Boy, are you the new apartment manager?" The man stood in front of Zheng Yubai and yawned.
"It's me." Zheng Yubai nodded.
"Well, you seem to be in good health. I hope you can last a few more days." The man showed a mysterious smile, "Come with me, I will introduce your job to you."
Zheng Yubai followed the man through two smoky card tables, past the colorful slot machines, and came to the corner of the hall where there was a door.
The man opened the door with a click and called Zheng Yubai to follow him in.
This is a not too big office, with tables, chairs and beds. The most special thing is a row of surveillance cameras, which not only cover the images from various angles of the hall outside, but also monitor the kitchen and various entrances and exits in the community.
"I'm the leader of the Black Star Company's seaside district. My name is Cao Ji." The man sat down carelessly, put his feet on the table, and had an obvious gangster style.
"Hello, Hall Master." Zheng Yubai didn't know how high of an official position the Hall Master held, but he was always higher than an administrator like him, so he quickly put on a smiling face.
"Just call me Brother Cao Ji." Cao Ji took out a box of cigarettes, took out one and handed it to Zheng Yubai.
"Thank you, Brother Caoji, I don't know how to do it." Zheng Yubai waved his hands repeatedly. People who learn martial arts should avoid smoking and drinking. The farther away from these harmful things, the better.
Caoji didn't care. He lit a cigarette and said slowly, "This will be your workplace from now on. Your job is to serve the guests here."
"The guests... are they the ones outside?" Zheng Yubai asked.
"Yeah, that's them." Caoji blew out a smoke ring, "What you usually have to do is to meet all their requests, except going out."
"So they can do whatever they want as long as they don't leave the house?"
Caoji nodded: "Whatever they want, we can give them women. If they want drugs, we can give them drugs. If they want to kill people or burn things, we can hire more than a hundred of the world's most famous killers."
As Cao Ji spoke, he pressed a button on the table, and the entire wall behind him opened up, revealing a secret room.
Zheng Yubai looked at the things displayed in the secret room with dazzled eyes, and his eyes almost popped out. The collection in this secret room was too incredible. On the deepest wall, there were anti-tank rocket launchers, AK47, M4A1...
Caoji introduced the items to him nonchalantly, just like introducing vegetables to people at the market: "The innermost part is the weapons, ranging from Desert Eagles, AK47s to rocket launchers, but these things can only be taken away when they leave, and cannot be used in the apartment. Over there are drugs, of various specifications and types. Over there is a picture album of beauties for selection, one is changed every week. There are many other things, you can slowly take a look and learn about them."
"Uh..." Zheng Yubai was speechless. Everything before his eyes was beyond his imagination.
"The price list is on your work manual. Take a good look at it when you have time. By the way, don't make the customers angry. Your predecessor angered Mr. K and got a broken leg. He was sent to the hospital this morning." Brother Caoji said with a relaxed look on his face.
"How can I avoid making them angry?" Zheng Yubai didn't want to break his leg innocently. He just wanted to find a job. He thought that this administrator job would be the easiest and simplest, but he didn't expect it to be so dangerous.
"That depends on your luck, because the guests here..." Caoji paused, "... are basically all crazy." (To be continued)
