Chapter 125 Man-made panic [2]

Pavel Ball has been diligent and conscientious in the nearly 20 years he has worked in Hanwa Industrial Bank!

He never liked to compare himself with others, and it was because of this reason that Pavel Poll had a relatively good popularity in the bank.

After a day's rest, Pavel carried his leather bag and walked to the Hanhua Industrial Bank Building full of energy.

As soon as he entered the building, Pavel saw two police cars parked downstairs. The white policeman on the police car looked seriously at every staff member passing by the police car.

"Hey! Pavel, have you heard? There was a supernatural event in our building yesterday!"

Pavel turned his head to look at his old friend Erni and replied indifferently: "If the company is willing to pay me three times the salary tonight, no matter if it is a supernatural event or a devil, I will let those things see what is 【Hungry Ghost】!"

Ernie curled his lips in displeasure when he heard this sentence: "Don't tell me, Coca-Cola's employee tax details will be sent to the New York Stock Exchange tomorrow. Maybe our department really needs someone to go to the NYSE tonight." work overtime!"

Pavel and Erni stood at the elevator entrance and adjusted their suits and ties calmly facing the scene reflected on the elevator door.

There are more and more people waiting for the elevator around.

With a sound of "ding", the elevator door opened. As soon as Pavel stepped into the elevator, he smelled a strong smell of jasmine perfume in the elevator. Floor display number.

5th Floor.
16th Floor.
21th Floor.
When the elevator stopped on the 24th floor, no one got off the elevator, but the elevator door opened, and there were not many people in the elevator, only 4 people were left, and these four people happened to be Hanhua Industrial Bank employees.

Pavel and Erni looked gossipingly at [the 24th floor], which was shaped into a magic cave by the outside media.

The interior of the office lobby of Mitsubishi Estate, which had always been busy, turned out to be deserted today. A few uniformed policemen wearing white gloves kept searching for something inside, and there were several property maintenance personnel standing in the electric box at the door.

Pavel turned his ear and heard the maintenance staff of the property asking the police: "There must be no problem with the maintenance of the electric box here. You can see that the electric box inside the electric box is brand new. Those few that don't stop We also checked the flickering light tube, but we will replace it so that it doesn't happen again!"

Just when Pavel wanted to hear more, his old friend Erni got a camera out of nowhere and took several pictures of the interior of [24th floor].

"What are you doing! You are crazy!"

Ernie smiled at the bank colleagues behind him: "Hahaha, I make some extra money. If you have a camera, you can take a few pictures. Recently, the reporters outside opened up for the pictures inside our building. The high price of $150!"

Hearing these words, Pavel immediately perked up his ears.

Hanwah Industrial Bank does not have a great reputation internationally, but Hanwah Industrial Bank's profitability in the 80s was not bad, otherwise they would not have a building named after them in Rockefeller Center.

From the 24th floor up, all are the offices of Hanhua Industrial Bank, and Pavel works in the [Risk Control Department] on the 25th floor.

Because Hanhua Industrial Bank has a close relationship with the New York Stock Exchange, many large listed companies need to conduct surveys and provide feedback to the New York Stock Exchange for their tax details and risk control reports.

Therefore, Pavel, who works in the risk control department, has a very heavy workload. After a busy morning, Pavel looked around and his colleagues are all taking their lunch break. The [Yellow Pages], which is very popular in the state, hurried to the public phone booth downstairs.

Pavel naturally skipped the preferential content on [Yellow Pages] for [Neill's Fast Food Chain], but kept looking for companies that rent camera equipment on it.

It is very convenient to search for the content on the [Yellow Pages], as long as you search according to the initials you need, you can quickly find the contact information of the company you need according to the remarks on the [Yellow Pages].

"Hello! Is this Burbank Camera Equipment Rental?"

"Oh! I'm in Manhattan, can you rent a camera equipment!"

"The deposit needs to be 300 dollars!" Pavel squinted his eyes and did a quick mental calculation when he heard the answer on the other end of the phone. A photo costs 150 dollars. If he can take 5-10 photos, he will not only get one for free The camera can also bring a lot of income to the family!
Gritting his teeth, Pavel replied to the other end of the phone: "Okay! Deliver it to me this afternoon, OK?"

After hanging up the phone, Pavel walked out of the public phone booth, looked around thoughtfully, and then walked back to the office.
-
In 1985, Toyota Motors accounted for 20% of the car share in the United States. In order not to make his father angry, Toyota has successively started building factories in California, Kentucky, Texas and other places in the United States since 1970.

The Toyota factory in Long Beach, Los Angeles was built in 1972. The name of this factory is very trendy, called TABC.

The number of people in the factory is not many, only more than 700, which is far inferior to the jobs that the US-Australia Paper Industry can provide. However, around this 700-person factory, nearly 40 American automobile supply chain factories have been established for this company. Provide services.

Because of the hot sales of the Toyota Hilux SR5 pickup truck, the factory responsible for the welding of Toyota auto parts and the production of catalytic converters started his work in three shifts a day.

Javier yawned and walked off the shuttle bus provided by Toyota with a tired look on his face. Javier, who had changed into work clothes, sat in the locker room, smoking a cigarette in a daze.

"Have you heard about the supernatural event in Manhattan? Do you think that event is true or false?"

"It must be true! This is the same as the UFO practice. Every time a UFO appears, a lot of experts will pop up to explain that there are no aliens at all."

"That's right! Fox News Channel also reported that the same supernatural event happened there just 7 years ago."

After Javier stomped out the cigarette butts, he was ready to leave here wearing insulating gloves. His work was heavy. Today, he not only had to deal with the defective products left over from yesterday, but also welded out the suspension. It was really too much, and he couldn't care less about chatting.

When Javier was about to walk out of the locker room, several workers behind him were still discussing.

"I heard that when the Rockefeller Center was built, many bones of the North and South Stations were found underground there!"

"Hey! Don't tell me, when I came to our factory for an interview, someone told me that a lot of personal bones were found during the construction near the public toilet."

Working in an automobile factory is a very boring thing. Workers need to process the same thing a hundred or a thousand times. If you have too many defective products, you will be deducted money. If you still fail to pass the inspection, you are likely to be released will lose your job.

This is the case with Japanese companies. Although the Toyota factory also has a labor union, the factory in Long Beach City has too few workers, so the labor union has not been set up here.

That's why there are so many people like Javier in the Toyota factory, their eyes are dull, and they can't exert their strength every day. With more and more immigrants, the Toyota factory has gradually begun to eliminate white people and increase the number of ethnic minorities. Employment rate.

Because minorities are easy to manage in the United States!

Javier, who processed 7 kits, suddenly became addicted to cigarettes. After the 7 kits were successfully accepted, Javier went back to the dressing room and took out a pack of cigarettes.

Just when Javier was about to get some more toilet paper and was about to leave, a person curled up in a corner of the dressing room kept chattering his teeth.

"Are you ok?"

The man didn't pay attention to Javier, but looked at Javier with a pale face. Javier was startled when he saw the man's face, and Javier quickly knelt down and asked, "Are you sure you're okay? Do you need help?" Call the doctor?"

That one still didn't speak, still the same as before.

Looking at this man who was just talking about the supernatural events in Manhattan with others in the locker room, Javier just thought that he was on drugs and high at work, and Javier was not far away for the reason that more things are worse than less things. The camera signaled him and he walked outside without doing anything.

In the entire Toyota factory, there are only two places where employees are allowed to smoke.

One is the locker room, and the other is the public toilet. These two places are still the rights and interests of the Toyota Automobile Workers' Union for them.

Javier, who was squatting on the toilet, lit the cigarette in his hand and enjoyed the time when he was alone.

From time to time, there was a sound of "tick", "tick" and "tick" in the silent public toilet. Javier was not afraid of this sound at all, and that sound was the sound of a water pipe leaking. people to deal with.

Suddenly a gust of cold wind blew over from the outside, and Javier, who was shivering, took a drag on his cigarette.

The door of the toilet soaked by the leaking water pipe made "squeak" and "squeak" sounds outside, which made people's teeth sore. Javier's mind suddenly flashed the colleague who was curled up in the locker room with a pale face just now.

He remembered that colleague very clearly, it was the one who was talking about [Spiritual Events] in the locker room just now!
When he was just on the night shift, that person was still in the locker room telling others [a lot of personal bones were found during the construction near the public toilet].

Just as Javier's idea came to him, there was a "gululu" sound from the toilet pit next to him, followed by "ba da" and "ba da".

The sound of "ba da" and "ba da" is very similar to the sound of a person's bare feet stepping on the water.

Suddenly, the toilet door where Javier was staying was slammed violently from the outside, and the sound of "bang" made Javier stop his current movements immediately.

This movement frightened Javier, he didn't even care that the cigarette butt he held between his fingers burned his fingers!
"Oh!"

"Fxxk!"

Javier, who has been working as an electric welder in the factory all year round, kicked the door open without even kicking his trousers. Javier, who rushed out of the pit of the toilet, raised the mop in the toilet and waved it indiscriminately.

He didn't even let go of the empty pit next to him, and rushed out of the public toilet with a reckless Javier shouting.

The sudden will-o'-the-wisp from the street lamp near the public toilet stunned Javier, but his reaction was also quick. He threw the mop in his hand towards the will-o'-the-wisp.

Javier, who was just about to run away with his thighs, was stumbled by the trousers that had fallen under his legs. Javier, whose face was on the ground, ignored the pain and blood dripping, casually lifted his trousers and turned toward him. Run to the locker room.

"Oh! Damn it!" Javier, whose face was covered in blood, returned to the locker room and grabbed the colleague who was curled up in the locker room and shouted loudly: "Did you see something you shouldn't see! Tell me! Yes no!"

"Yes. Help me! I'm afraid~"

Javier, who returned to the locker room, took a deep breath, grabbed the colleague who was hiding in the locker room and dared not go out, and walked towards the factory office.

Marko, who was hiding on the top of the building and saw this scene, quickly woke Tao Xi up: "Tao Xi! Tao Xi! That man is not afraid, he ran to report with that coward!"

It took a while for the dazed Tao Xi to wake up: "Ah! Well, let's go, our task should be completed, just take out the fishing line we put in the ventilation duct!"

"But it's really awesome!"

"Tao Xi, how did you come up with the idea of ​​hanging a stone with a fishing line and throwing it at the toilet door? You're out of your mind!"

Tao Xi heard Marco's flattery and dissatisfaction and complained: "You can think of putting those phosphorus fires at the gate of the factory! I don't know if the group of policemen are smoking at the gate of the factory and find the will-o'-the-wisps that suddenly appear. Startled, hahahahaha!"

The two brothers climbed towards the public toilet along the vent on the roof, but the entire Toyota plant in Long Beach saw Javier whose face was broken and another employee who was frightened and sweating profusely. Just fry the pan!
Tao Xi, who got in the RV, got into the bathroom immediately to wash up, but Marco complained dissatisfied: "You said you climbed the ventilation pipe, so why didn't you let me take the whole vent? The cobwebs are all gone, it's really dirty!"

Tao Xi, who was standing in the bathroom taking a shower, couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard this sentence.

The ventilation equipment in Rockefeller Center is maintained once a month, and the ventilation equipment in Long Beach City is maintained once a few hundred years. A few imprints in itself are suspicious enough. If you remove all the spider webs, it is obvious to tell others, California This supernatural event is man-made!
