It’s over, I’m surrounded by weirdos and players

Chapter 69 The Mysterious Jeff

"Director Lin, the department meeting is about to begin." Gu Nanli knocked on the office door and whispered a reminder.

Department meeting?

"right away."

Lin Yi immediately retracted his thoughts, closed the files open on the computer, ejected the USB flash drive, and put it into his pocket.

He looked through the documents Gu Nanli had given him before, and one of them was his work schedule for this month.

May 5, department meeting at 18 p.m.

Lin Yi sat in the main seat of the conference room and pretended to look around casually.

This conference room is not large in size and the layout is simple. There are a few cheap landscape calligraphy and painting decorations hanging on the white walls.

The seats used were all made of wood. When the chairs were pushed away, they made a harsh sound when they rubbed against the ground.

There is no decent electronic equipment for meetings in the entire conference room, not even the most basic screen projection equipment.

All recorded on a giant movable whiteboard placed on the other side of the conference table.

There are still some important information and project progress from last month on the whiteboard.

"Is there anyone else who hasn't come?" Lin Yi's eyes fell on the only empty seat. Only fourteen of the fifteen seats were present.

Gu Nanli whispered into Lin Yi's ear and explained: "Teacher Jeff is not here yet. He is always a few minutes late."

Lin Yi shouted seriously, "Start."

Gu Nanli immediately handed over a document to Lin Yi, and then began to preside over the meeting, "The first topic is about"

Ten minutes later, the door of the conference room was pushed open.

A foreign young man who looked to be in his thirties walked in.

Wearing a slim-fitting black leather jacket with ripped jeans looks very trendy and fashionable.

His hair was neatly combed on the back of his head, and the slightly longer ends were tied into a small bun, giving him a handsome and unruly look.

Lin Yi noticed that there were exaggerated tattoos on the other person's arms. The abstract lines and complex patterns looked very weird.

Presumably he is Jeff.

"Sorry everyone, I'm late." Jeff said as he naturally sat in the last empty seat.

His voice has a strong foreign accent, and the pitch sometimes rises and falls, giving him a unique sense of rhythm.

The meeting is still going on.

Lin Yi pretended to listen carefully to the reports of his subordinates, but actually looked at Jeff secretly.

The other person lazily crossed his legs and kept playing with the pen in his hand. He seemed to have no interest in the content of the department meeting.

Occasionally, one or two humming tunes can be vaguely heard.

The reactions of the people around me seem to be normal.

This shows that Jeff's identity is very special, not just a senior designer.

Lin Yi suddenly remembered the signature of the big boss Zhou Zhengan on the design plan. Maybe Jeff was from the big boss?
  "Director Lin, what do you think?" A shout brought him back from his thoughts.

Lin Yi didn't pay attention to what the other party said before. He could only answer with the universal formula, "Let's see again."

"Understood, Director Lin." After hearing this, the other party glanced at Jeff, and then sat down as if he understood.

Another subordinate stood up again and began to report.

Lin Yi could only continue to hold on with a smile on his face, listening to the next person's situation report, and searching in his heart for some universal answer.

For the rest of the day, everyone reporting back would take one last look at Jeff.

It seemed to be confirming something to him.

An hour later, the meeting finally came to an end.

Lin Yi finally managed to handle the meeting without arousing anyone's suspicion.

This made him have to suspect that this director was just a decoration in the department, and the real power person was Jeff.

Otherwise, why would he transfer from human resources to the creative design department? The span is too big.

"Hey, how do you think about what I said before?" Jeff patted Lin Yi on the shoulder and sat down on the conference table.

There were only two of them left in the entire conference room.

"Ah?" Lin Yi was stunned. He didn't know what the other party was talking about, so he could only follow the words, "Still thinking."

"It's been how many days and I still can't make up my mind." Jeff frowned, "If you continue to act like a mother-in-law, I won't take you with me."

"Just let me think about it again." Lin Yi deliberately showed a tangled look. Although he didn't know what it was yet, he had to deal with it first.

Jeff said impatiently to Lin Yi, "Okay, okay, I'll give you another day to think it over."

"I really don't know what else you have to worry about."

"Didn't I show you everything?"

"There won't be any big problems, and nothing will happen to you."

As Jeff spoke, he reached out and pressed the inside of his arm. Something the size of a fingernail crawled from the inside of the arm along the tattoo all the way down to the wrist.

"It's just such a little thing. When I finish absorbing its power next month, it will be completely gone."

Lin looked shocked, and he noticed a faint black aura emanating from Jeff's body.

absorb? strength?
  A bad premonition suddenly occurred in his heart, maybe what Jeff said was that he wanted to keep this thing too.

No, absolutely not.

Who knows what the hell it is.

Lin Yi was shaking his head wildly in his heart, but on the surface he still looked hesitant, "I'm still scared."

"Then you will have to be a mascot in the company for the rest of your life." Jeff sneered, completely impatient with Lin Yi's appearance of wanting to climb up but not wanting to pay the price.

"Come to me if you think about it."

After saying that, the person left immediately.

Lin Yi stood there silently, his heart in chaos.

Why is there black energy? Is it caused by something in the other person's body?

How many more people like this are there in this company?

Does the big boss Zhou Zhengan know?

Also involved?

Are those unusual design plans related to this?

Is the caring community also affected by these things?
  Countless questions hit Lin Yi.

What he originally thought was over, he didn't expect to find new clues here.

[Congratulations on explaining the hidden story of 888 Media Company and getting important clues +1]

The system comes online again and issues a prompt.

Lin Yi has obtained two important clues, but he cannot completely link them together.

Important content is still missing.

If you want to know, you'll have to find Jeff.

But once you go to find Jeff, you will most likely have to plant this damn thing.

Lin Yi was caught in a conflict for a while. He didn't know whether he should go or not.

Before Lin Yi could figure it out, Gu Nanli knocked on the door of the conference room again, "Director Lin, the big boss is waiting for you in the office on the third floor."

"Okay, I understand." Lin nodded.

Two minutes later, the third floor arrived.

He looked at the chairman's office, where black air was seeping out from the crack in the door, and one question already had an answer.

This door was like a giant beast with its bloody mouth, staring at Lin Yi, as if trying to pull him into the endless abyss.
