I deliver food in a bizarre world

"I think those so-called paranormal phenomena are just due to the current scientific and technological framework not being mature enough. I'm very interested, and as long as the technical support is in place, I should be able to develop something to deal with them."

He shut his mouth after he finished speaking and looked at Chen Mo.

He should test the other party's abilities first before making a decision.

With strong professional skills and a passion for exploring unknown fields, Chen Mo needs such technical support.

The next person was a girl who looked somewhat frail, wearing an elegant dress, with an open laptop in front of her.

"My name is Li Wenjing, I am 28 years old, and I have a master's degree in library science and information science." Her voice was soft and pleasant to listen to.

"I am good at collecting, organizing and analyzing information from various channels."

"Whether it's hidden communities deep within the internet, ancient records, urban legends, or scattered case reports, I can find connections. In jargon, I'd call myself a half-hacker."

She smiled slightly: "I've been following Brother Mo's live streams for almost a year now. I only decided to give it a try after seeing Lao Tong's job posting."

Chen Mo handed over a slip of paper with several obscure terms and locations written on it: "Find out the possible connections between these contents, as well as their records of appearance in Jinghai City over the past ten years, and filter out the suspicious points."

Li Wenjing took the note and her fingers immediately flew across the keyboard, leaving only the soft tapping of the keyboard in the private room.

She would sometimes furrow her brow in thought, and sometimes quickly switch pages, so focused that it was as if nothing around her existed.

About three or four minutes later, she looked up and turned the computer screen toward Chen Mo.

"Twelve potentially related incidents have been preliminarily identified, spanning eight years and distributed across five different areas of the city. Among these, three incidents are vaguely described in official reports and contain contradictory eyewitness testimonies, making it impossible to provide accurate answers."

"If more in-depth information is needed, then time will be required. Verification can only be carried out by accessing specific databases."

Chen Mo saw the content on the computer and nodded slightly.

There were four other people among them, and they all introduced themselves.

One is a gym instructor who claims to be strong and daring; another is a veteran skilled in combat and wilderness survival; a third is a college student who has just graduated from medical school and is interested in abnormal physiological phenomena; and the fourth claims to have very keen intuition, often has precognitive dreams, and works as a freelance writer.

These eight people are currently unemployed and ready to start work at any time, as Lao Tong stated in the job posting.

Chen Mo asked each of them specific questions related to the job they were applying for, whether it was a simulated scenario or a technical challenge.

After all the exchanges were completed, more than three hours had passed, and it was already past four in the afternoon.

After a moment of thought, Chen Mo raised his head and glanced at the eight people on the other side of the long table.

"Thank you all for taking the time to come today. Su Yifan, Li Haojie, Zhou Mingyu, and Li Wenjing," he read out four names, "please stay a moment, we can discuss the follow-up in more detail. The other four..."

"Thank you very much for coming and for your trust in me," he said politely to the four who were not selected, then changed the subject.

"Each of you has your own strengths and is a capable person. However, the team is newly established and there are limited positions, so they may not be the best match for the current needs."

"Even though this collaboration didn't work out, consider it a chance to make friends with everyone. When the team grows and needs to fill positions, we'll definitely give you all priority consideration."

The four people showed some disappointment, but when they saw Chen Mo extend his friend code, they were overjoyed.

Most of them were people who had been following him for a long time, while some were very interested in paranormal events. Having Chen Mo's friends was enough for them to brag about for a while.

After adding each other as friends, the four of them politely got up to say goodbye, all maintaining their composure and manners.

After the four people left, the private room suddenly felt much emptier.

"The studio location has been chosen; it's nearby," Chen Mo said. "I'll compile the specific job duties, compensation, and precautions and send them to everyone tomorrow morning."

Li Haojie was the first to nod: "No problem, Brother Mo! Would you ever treat us badly if we were working for you?"

The remaining three nodded slightly, looking very excited.

Jiang Mingyang smiled to himself, clearly quite satisfied with the selection results.

The quarterfinals to the semifinals is indeed a good result.

If only one or two people meet the requirements, he'll be in a really awkward situation...

"Old Tong, why don't you just come over too? You won't be treated badly." Chen Mo patted Jiang Mingyang on the back.

"I'll just forget about it for now. I can finish the task you gave me by slacking off. If my family finds out I lost my secure job, they'll kill me. I can't handle that right now!"

"I'll come back full-time once your business picks up. I won't cause you any trouble now. There's not much work to do in the early stages anyway, so you should be able to handle it."

Chen Mo didn't insist and nodded.

Su Yifan and the others got up, and Jiang Mingyang also went along.

The group walked for less than ten minutes before arriving at the five-story apartment building.

The white exterior walls gleamed in the sunlight, and the secluded courtyard was surrounded by a low fence, creating a tranquil environment.

Jiang Mingyang sighed, "Longquan District in Jinghai City is the city center; renting such a building here isn't cheap!"

Pushing open the heavy glass door, a spacious lobby on the first floor comes into view.

Sunlight streamed through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the floor. Intermittent sounds of electric drills and hammering came from upstairs; workers were still putting the finishing touches on things.

"The first floor is planned as an office area and a public area. The outside is the living room, the inside is the office, and further inside is the living area, kitchen, and dining room."

Because the renovation was still ongoing, tables and chairs had not yet been purchased, and the hall was extremely empty, with Chen Mo's voice echoing slightly in the space.

"The basement is under renovation and will be used as a training area. In addition to storing some special items, an area will also be designated as a meeting room."

"The third to fifth floors are dormitories, each with a private bathroom. There are three rooms on each floor, and the layout and environment are different. Each person can choose their own room. If you live nearby, you don't have to live here."

Li Haojie was the first to get excited, almost running towards the stairs: "Brother Mo, I'll go up and check first!"

His footsteps echoed in the stairwell, and the three of them followed closely behind.

The layout of the third to fifth floors is similar to that of a hotel, with three large bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms along the corridor.

The room wasn't particularly large, but it was clean and tidy, and had all the basic furniture.

Li Haojie had quickly chosen a room on the fifth floor, facing east, with a view of the greenery in the courtyard just by opening the window. "This one's mine!"

Zhou Mingyu chose the innermost room on the fourth floor, and Li Wenjing chose the room next to Zhou Mingyu's.

Su Yifan chose the fifth floor, next to Li Haojie.

After each person claimed their room, the group excitedly returned to the first floor.

Chen Mo took out his phone: "Add everyone as friends and create a group chat. We'll communicate about work and emergencies in the group from now on."

Friend requests started popping up one after another very quickly.

Chen Mo's fingers moved across the screen, quickly pulling them into the "404 Not Found" group chat.
