Weird Safe House: I became stronger after taking in my roommate!
Chapter 21: A Group of Short-Lived Ghosts Who Possess Power!
Shen Xu took a stack of gold cards in his hand, glanced at them, and saw that there were thirteen in total.
If each one is worth one million, that adds up to thirteen million...
What kind of rich person carries so much money when they go out?
The method is rather outdated; WeChat transfers are more popular now.
"Thanks."
Shen Xu thanked him politely and put the gold card away without any hesitation.
Although he now lives in Liu Meiyun's house and has no worries about food and clothing, no one would complain about having too much money.
This scene was witnessed by Zhao Bin, who had just walked out of the mall, and a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
He has been a safety officer for more than three months, survived four or five trials, and dealt with many strange incidents, but so far he has only earned a few million.
Shen Xu, a student, earned more than ten million yuan on his second day as a safety officer.
This kid is really lucky... It's true what they say, comparisons are odious.
Zhang Zheng, Murphy, and the others standing nearby were even more excited.
Tens of millions! That's enough wealth to make a person live comfortably for the rest of their life!
But while they envied him, they also knew that this money was hard to earn; being a safety officer was a life-threatening job.
"It's lunchtime, shall we grab something to eat?"
Although Lin Guodong is one of the top entrepreneurs in the city, he was quite polite to Shen Xu, a student, and said with a smile, "What kind of cuisine would you like to eat, young man? When it comes to food, I'm an expert, and I'll definitely satisfy you."
"No need, I don't like going outside."
Shen Xu shook his head; the probability of encountering a ghost when going out these days is indeed quite high.
"Sure, let's go straight home and call the cook to come over and prepare the meal."
Lin Guodong immediately changed his tune, which was considered giving Shen Xu a lot of face.
Lin Huan also stepped forward with her legs tucked together, and whispered in his ear, "Daddy, your good daughter will miss you~"
"..."
Shen Xu glanced at Liu Meiyun and said, "Then let's go sit down together."
Liu Meiyun naturally obeyed his every word.
The group got into a stretched Lincoln. Shen Xu leaned back in the comfortable seat, with Liu Meiyun and Lin Huan sitting on either side of him.
The luxury car sped away.
"Tsk tsk... Our city has gained another young multimillionaire!"
"It's so enviable, being a safety officer must be a great job, but also..."
The law enforcement officers discussed it with some envy, but in the end they all shook their heads in resignation.
In fact, the bureau had already launched a safety officer training program. Law enforcement officers who passed the review could risk entering the Ghost Realm and actively seek the opportunity to become safety officers.
However, firstly, the invasion of the ghost realm is a completely random event, and secondly, the invasion only takes place in areas with a large population before spawning safe houses. This means that those involved in the plan must rush to the ghost realm as soon as they receive the news, compete with the survivors for safe houses, and finally survive to leave the ghost realm...
The randomness in this process is too great, with a mortality rate of over 99%.
Globally, safety officers are almost always appointed by accident; there is no viable way to actively seek employment for them.
Among all the law enforcement officers in Longcheng City, currently... only Zhang Zheng has signed up for this program.
But why this veteran law enforcement captain would give up his generous salary, benefits, and status to participate in such a near-death plan remains unknown.
"Zhao Bin, did you encounter another security officer in the Ghost Realm?"
Murphy asked Zhao Bin.
"I ran into him, what happened?"
"Where are they? Shen Xu said this ghost realm was likely caused by people from the Black Dragon Company. The incident is very serious, and we must launch an investigation!"
Upon hearing Murphy's words, Zhao Bin frowned and angrily retorted, "Are you crazy, you stupid woman?"
"What exactly is Black Dragon Company? They're the largest security organization in the city. How can I investigate alone?"
"Hmph, Shen Xu has messed with Black Dragon Company. It seems he won't be able to cause trouble for long."
"I don't think you need to bother recruiting anymore!"
How could you say that...?
Murphy was both angry and worried upon hearing this, but she was completely unable to deal with Zhao Bin, this scoundrel.
Before becoming a security guard, this guy was a regular at bars and had some dirty tricks up his sleeve.
Now that they have the authority of safety officers, they are even more unscrupulous, often disregarding the law altogether.
Ugh……
I don't want this kind of unscrupulous scoundrel as a partner.
What I want is a model student like Shen Xu!
……
Following Shen Xu's instructions, Lin Guodong went to the most remote of the several mansions.
Located in the Comprehensive Reform Zone of Longcheng City, the newly built roads are wide and flat, and the buildings are neat and tall. It is also a key development area of the city.
"This villa was a gift from a friend. The location is a bit remote, but the air is fresh and the scenery is beautiful."
This villa community has very few people, an extremely low occupancy rate, and very few houses have even been sold.
"Chairman Lin, Huanhuan."
Upon entering the courtyard, servants immediately came out to greet us. Although they didn't address us with titles like "Master" or "Miss," their actions were essentially the same.
Although no members of the Lin family live here, there are servants cleaning the place.
"The chef arrived early and is cooking inside."
"Hmm, we have guests today. I brought out a few bottles of my good wine... Would you like a drink, young man?"
Lin Guodong couldn't help but glance at Shen Xu; he looked far too young.
"I don't like it. Do you have any Coke?"
Shen Xu wasn't interested in alcohol or similar beverages.
"Of course!"
Lin Guodong tried his best to meet Shen Xu's requests, so he naturally enjoyed the meal very much.
After a hearty meal, Lin Guodong couldn't help but sigh, "There are more and more strange things happening these days. Several of my old friends have started spending a lot of money to befriend security officers. I'm lucky to have met you, my little hero."
Shen Xu awkwardly tugged at the corner of his mouth and said, "Brother Lin, you can just call me Shen Xu."
"Then I will not be disrespectful."
Lin Guodong said, "Brother Shen Xu, there's something I'd like to ask you."
"Just now at the Dragon Tower, you said this ghost invasion was caused by human intervention? Is that true?"
Shen Xu nodded: "Of course, that group belongs to an organization called Black Dragon Company. They initially only used strange objects to cause casualties in a shop, but as the strange power expanded, it developed into a ghost domain and eventually got out of control."
Lin Huanhuan said with lingering fear, "Shen Xu is right. I saw it with my own eyes. It was those guys who treated human life so carelessly, resulting in such a huge number of casualties!"
"Black Dragon Company..."
Lin Guodong frowned: "A few days ago, some old friends of mine asked me to invest in Heilong Company in order to make friends with the safety officer, but I'm still investigating and haven't made any rash moves yet."
"I never expected them to be such a group of lawless and disruptive elements."
"Aren't these people afraid of legal repercussions? Or rather, is the Bureau of Mysterious Investigations powerless to touch them?"
Shen Xu smiled upon hearing this: "Brother, you don't know this, but the job of a security officer seems enviable. You can wield strange powers and fight against ghosts."
"But in reality, it comes at a huge price, and there's always the possibility of death."
"You can think of security officers as... a bunch of short-lived people who have access to legal firearms and ammunition. It's not surprising that they would do something crazy."
