Chapter 3 Weird Talk Radio
The streets of the Hong Kong Night Market are crowded with people. Even though it is already late at night, the night market is still brightly lit and the air is filled with the fragrance of various ingredients.
"What a beautiful corn, glutinous rice cake, good soup, sugar water!"
"White lynx-white lynx-white lynx, it's spicy or not!"
"It's flat and beautiful, I missed it after passing by a thousand meters..."
Walking through the night market mixed with shouts, the man uncomfortably clamped his briefcase under his armpit. The streets were filled with residents eating late-night snacks and tourists from other places.
However, the man was wearing a clean and tidy suit and a white shirt inside. Although the slightly protruding beer belly made his body look less upright, just looking at his appearance, you can still feel that the man has a certain pursuit of the quality of life.
His hair was combed meticulously and he had some oil on it; his shoes were polished brightly, and his briefcase was filled with manuscripts. Unlike other people who were eating midnight snacks and enjoying nightlife after work, the man's work officially began at night.
At this time, the man's eyes looked a little dull. If you look closely, you will find that although his walking posture and movements are the same as ordinary people, he always feels a little strange, like an angry machine, controlled by someone to walk.
He came out of the alley and walked along the road for more than ten minutes. When the man came to a high-end office building, he stopped. The next second, the man's originally dull eyes gradually became clear. He was like a different person, and he looked down at his clothes in a panic, then seemed to remember something and found his cell phone from his body.
Jiang Li turned on the front camera. When he saw his face clearly, he was surprised to find that he had become the man who had appeared in the CG picture before.
[Your name is Chen Mo, English name Kelvin. You are 32 years old, unmarried, and live alone at Block 2F13, No. 28 Cheung Sha Wan Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong. Your profession is a host of "Strange Talk Radio". Your daily working hours are from midnight to 5:30 am. Tonight, you go to work in the company as usual. The radio station was founded by you and two other college classmates. It was very popular six years ago, but now with the development of the Internet, your program has declined and the listening rate is very bleak. Your two partners seem to be not going to do it, and they have less and less time to show their faces this year. But as a major shareholder, you still have to work hard to support it to barely maintain the current status of the radio station.]
Blue holographic projection text appeared in front of Jiang Li's eyes, but looking at the pedestrians passing by on the street, it seemed that only he himself could see these contents.
"It turned out to be a role-playing game. It's good, so there's no need to try my best to find a way to get in touch with him." Jiang Li finished reading the game prompts quickly, and then a new text task appeared.
[Please go to B05 on the 12th floor to start your work today. Note: Leaving the company before the live broadcast ends at 5:30 in the morning, otherwise it will be directly considered a failure of the task.]
Jiang Li checked his backpack. In addition to the props he brought into the mission, he also had a flashlight.
"It seems like I'm going to do something about me again tonight." Jiang Li shrugged and then entered the office building. It is located in the bustling business center of Kowloon, Hong Kong. Although it is already eleven o'clock in the evening, the hall is still brightly lit. The front desk and security guards are on duty for 24 hours. Even if an office worker goes downstairs to buy midnight snacks, he still needs to check the work sign on his chest when entering and leaving.
Jiang Li stood at the door, searched out his work permit from his bag, and wanted to hang it around his neck. At the same time, the sound of two young men communicating in Cantonese came from behind him.
“The dry-fried Niuhe at this food stall is so just right!”
"Yes, I'll call Arlene and the others to eat together next time I finish work."
With the systematic translation, they could hear clearly what they were saying. Jiang Li was not interested in paying attention to the two people, and at this moment, one of them seemed to be only concerned about joking with his companions, and actually hit Jiang Li directly.
"Damn." Jiang Li's work card was hit to the ground. He bent down angrily and picked up the card, but saw the young man patting the takeaway in his hand as if nothing had happened, glanced at the direction he was in, and then walked into the building with his companion jokingly.
"Is it too arrogant? The white-collar workers are amazing!" Jiang Li was too lazy to see him. He hung up a badge sign in anger and looked at the security guard by the door, followed the two into the elevator.
"Oh, wait a moment!" Seeing that the elevator door was about to close, Jiang Li ran over quickly and reached out to stop him. When the elevator opened, he glared at the two young men angrily, full of displeasure at the impolite actions of the two of them.
"Is there something wrong?" One of the men looked at Jiang Li, tsk, pressed the button to close the elevator, and also pressed the twelfth floor.
"How do you say it? You have no quality and you are embarrassed to scold others?" Jiang Li was already very unhappy with the attitude of these two people. Now he didn't expect that the mission had not started yet, but he was scolded by two young boys.
The two of them seemed to be bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. They used to rely on Jiang Li to speak out and were arrogant. Now they saw that the other party was furious and stopped talking.
Jiang Li thought that the task was about to begin and he should not waste time on such trivial matters, so he endured the aggrievance in his heart and took the lead after the elevator reached the 12th floor.
Seeing the two young men leaving the elevator and running contrary to themselves, and entering another company with a smile, Jiang Li shook his head, thinking that the characters in the game were also not bad enough, so he began to look for room B05.
Soon, he saw a huge office at the end of the corridor. He pushed open the transparent glass door outside. There was a red headphone logo on the wall behind the front desk, and the four big words "Strange Talk" radio" were written below.
"It seems that this company is really cold. Not to mention that there are not many people, I still sleep lazy during work." Jiang Li watched one or two young employees dozing off at the desk, and a few people lowered their heads and played with their mobile phones, watching TV series online...
In the huge office, there are many workstations that are empty, and the remaining few staff members are listless and seem to have no enthusiasm for work.
"Good evening everyone." Jiang Li greeted them embarrassedly, and saw that no one paid attention to him, and he was not bored. After all, he didn't know these people. If some of his professional knowledge was exposed, something would be a big deal.
According to the task guidance, Jiang Li walked straight through the office and walked into the door of the live broadcast room. To his surprise, all the equipment in the live broadcast room were dormant, and the computer, director, TV, and tuning monitor... were not turned on.
Jiang Li walked to his seat, took out the manuscript from his briefcase, and browsed it. Then, he skillfully turned on the computer in front of him and began to debug other equipment.
"These people have a negative and exaggerated attitude towards work... After all, I am a little leader, why are they so cold? Is it because Chen Mo is so annoying?" Jiang Li talked to himself while busying himself.
He is a professional media broadcasting host, and he is very skilled in controlling equipment. Without help from others, Jiang Li took care of all the work at hand.
Before we knew it, it was already late at 11:50, and the program was less than ten minutes away.
During this period, a man passed by the glass door outside. Jiang Li wanted to call the other party for help, but the young man quickly slipped away and ignored his shouting at all.
