Chapter 9: Haste Makes Waste

"How stupid." Pan Hailin had already stepped forward to Huo Yingsu’s side. She looked at the few troublemakers who tried to make trouble and shook her head. "These people will definitely be blacklisted by many companies after this."

"Just like that?" Huo Yingsu was surprised.

"There were many people who are not completely loyal to the company here." Pan Hailin shrugged. "Huo Yingsu, don’t worry too much about it and just focus on your work. The capitalist are the most annoying."

Huo Yingsu: "..."

She actually wanted to say that most of the values of the people in Country Z should be closer to socialist.

But thinking that she’s in another world...

Huo Yingsu could only gave a polite and agreeable smile.

Anyway, many businessmen were indeed capitalist, so this statement shouldn’t be wrong. As an ordinary person who have never been involved in this brutal world, Huo Yingsu indeed had limited knowledge.

*sigh*

"With such incident, it’s really upsetting," Huo Yingsu murmured.

"Who say no?"

The two women chatted together and then made their way to their work station, working and ignoring what had happened before.

But Huo Yingsu keenly noticed that the few people who were looking in her direction had already put their attention elsewhere.

Good.

She didn’t know if someone were still watching her covertly, but Huo Yingsu tried her best to remain calm and casual.

If she’s a native, she shouldn’t know that there would be an apocalypse soon.

Even though Huo Yingsu couldn’t claim to be a powerful person with many skills, but pretending to be calm and casual was still feasible to a certain degree...

At least, Huo Yingsu could guarantee that she wouldn’t be found out so easily by other ordinary people.

...Hopefully.

Huo Yingsu sighed.

She’s anxious.

But haste makes waste.

And she knew very well that she had to pick the researcher carefully to sneak into the research department and finish mission number 2.

Is it necessary?

Not exactly.

The problem is that Huo Yingsu knew that these novice world’s missions are practically the easiest among the missions worlds in the Live Stream Horror Survival Game. If she couldn’t even complete two missions, then it would be harder and harder for her to complete the missions in the future.

Huo Yingsu didn’t want to be a cannon fodder.

As the protagonist of the otome game, Su Ruoxi might also receive the chance to enter this world.

At that time, even if Huo Yingsu wanted to enact her revenge, it would be difficult.

She needed power.

And this Live Stream Horror Survival Game is basically her chance to obtain that power.

So even if it’s difficult, she had to do it.

Huo Yingsu sat down and started typing again.

{Is it possible for me to ask you if there’s any researchers being alone or do you have to follow me all the time?}

...

[Oh ho, this Huo Yingsu is quite interesting.]

[Are you trying to cheat?]

[There’s no restriction in asking us questions about the natives, but we can’t provide information of other players because it’ll be breaking rules. Of course, you knowing them personally as players would be outside of our restriction]

[There are many researchers on the first floor]

[If you want to find a lone researcher, you should think twice. These people are usually working in groups and are unwilling to be alone]

[yes, yes, yes~]

[There are also researchers on the floor above you.]

[Hahaha]

...

Seeing the clutter of information from the barrage, Huo Yingsu pursed her lips.

She knew that the players were allowed to ask questions about the natives from the barrage.

But whether they would tell the truth or not was up to them.

They can lie.

This is the most annoying aspects from the Live Stream Horror Survival Game.

To be precise, they couldn’t lie about anything that offer survival points but any other information could be weaved up to them. Whether the players believed them or not would depend on their judgement and so on.

’Above this floor? If I dare to enter the floor where Miss Su is located, then I’ll be doomed.’

’As for the first floor... is there any secret door heading to the basement or other secret routes? If that’s the case then I’ll need to go down and take a look.’

’The research groups official floor should be from the second floor above... hmm, I can’t possibly go there without any pass and even the elevator that they usually use is restricted for me.’

Huo Yingsu was busy racking her brain.

She knew very well that if she wanted to join the research group’s circle, she would have to get their identity card and possibly their pass card to these floors.

It wouldn’t be easy.

Huo Yingsu frowned and then typed a few more question on the screen, getting the valuable information from the barrage. Some of their words were contradictory, though, allowing Huo Yingsu to know that one of them was definitely lying.

This made her have to be cautious at all times.

...It was really tiring.

After a while, Huo Yingsu finished and then she took out a USB drive from the stack of empty USB drives on her drawer. She looked at the USB drives and then took a few more of them before she copied the data that she had compiled inside.

For Huo Yingsu who had been corporate slaves for a long time, just classifying the data didn’t really take that much time.

"You’re done?"

"Yeah, I’m planning on seeing the manager and see if I can get away with this... otherwise, I’ll be scolded again."
