O'Connor stood waiting far away from the entrance of the Shinra Company. He didn't dare to get too close, because more than one hundred people had queued up at the entrance of Shenluo Company. O'Connor's body is exceptionally thin, and he may be squeezed to the ground if he is not careful.
Since the recruitment information of Shenluo Company, tens of thousands of resumes have been delivered to the mailbox of Shenluo Company. Lord Luo Fei spent a lot of time to select the first batch of 100 candidates, O'Connor is one of them.
O'Connor has been waiting at the entrance of the Shinra company from five o'clock in the morning, when he was alone. But as time went on, more and more people came to interview. O'Connor didn't know when he was squeezed into the doorway of the principle. And as the time to start the interview at nine o'clock approaches, most people look forward to being the first to successfully join the disciplinary and become a true hero.
Although it was morning, the sun was still very poisonous. O'Connor just stood from five o'clock to the present. Not only did his feet soften, but his sweat drenched his body. He heard a cheer from the crowd, and the door of Shenra Company finally opened. O'Connor also wanted to rush into this amazing company for the first time like everyone else, but it was a pity that his legs were a little bit obedient.
By the time O'Connor stepped into the door of the Shenluo company, a fat man with a big belly was already explaining the interview process to these candidates.
O'Connor wiped the sweat on his face, and it was easy to recognize that the interpreter was the famous mind reader Matt. He is the manager of the personnel department of Shenluo Company and the master of illusion among the disciples.
"Okay, the above are the basic rules of the interview. I hope everyone will strictly abide, otherwise they will be disqualified." O'Connor finally had time to hear this sentence, and he saw Matt turn away.
"I didn't hear anything! That's all done?" O'Connor felt that the world was about to collapse. He finally got such an interview opportunity, and he didn't even hear the rules of the interview.
O'Connor asked the people around him a little awkwardly about the rules and content of the interview, but only sneered and ridiculed. No one wanted to tell him. After all, they are all competitors, who wants to help their competitors? One less person is better, and your chances of success are greatly increased.
O'Connor followed the crowd in frustration. He also had a glimmer of hope, as long as he was not the first to conduct an interview, then he should have the opportunity to infer a little rule based on observation. This was the only way he had thought of.
Soon, all applicants were taken to a huge playground. O'Connor couldn't help but exclaimed, because from the outside it seemed completely unimaginable that the space inside the Shinra company was so huge. As soon as he spoke, O'Connor regretted it. Because everyone else looked at themselves with a gloating eye, and O'Connor found that there was no sound other than himself.
"Could it be that the first rule of this interview is to keep quiet?" O'Connor thought a bit annoyed.
But after a while, O'Connor didn't hear his disqualification, and his heartbeat calmed down a little. But he also admonished himself that he could never make any fuss as he did just now. Without knowing the interview rules, O'Connor felt it was better to be cautious.
Soon, the first test started and turned out to be O'Connor's worst long-distance race. Just one lap, O'Connor felt his legs became numb. One person after another cast him away, and at the same time cast him a look of contempt, ridicule and sympathy, but no one stopped. After three laps, O'Connor is no longer shaving ice but more like a walk.
He was already weak, and his breath was as fast as a bellows. A salty taste in his throat made him feel that he would vomit blood and die if he persisted. However, an unwillingness to give up in his heart supported him, and he almost tried all his strength to finally complete the ten-lap long-distance running task.
Just when he came to the end, it was not applause, but endless mocking.
"If you are a little ashamed, you should quit automatically. Do you know how much time you have wasted us? Like your waste, it is impossible to be a hero." A very mean girl said mercilessly to O'Connor .
O'Connor did not have the strength to refute, he just seized the time to restore his strength, and secretly expected that the next project would not be so difficult. But it is clear that O'Connor is thinking too much.
The second project is swimming, an artificial lake with a large area, as long as you swim to the opposite bank to complete the task.
"I need to explain here that after five minutes, a lot of piranhas will be put in the lake. You can choose to swim to the other side in five minutes. A canoe hangs on that flagpole, you can also try Get the canoe down within five minutes. Finally, you have one last option, which is to turn around and leave."
Matt finished the sentence to everyone, and started the countdown. Having confidence in his swimming skills, he immediately jumped into the lake and swam towards the opposite bank. A few people tried to climb the flagpole to put down the canoe, but the flagpole was too high and too slippery, and these applicants were messing with each other, and it was impossible to succeed.
After a stalemate for a while, no one could climb the flagpole, so everyone chose to hurry up and swim to the other side.
O'Connor did not dive into the water, nor did he participate in the competition for the flagpole. Because he reasonably discovered that, with his physical fitness, he could not swim to the other side in five minutes, and also competed with these people for the flagpole. His only chance was to try again after everyone gave up the canoe, and now is the time.
O'Connor walked over to the flagpole and pulled out the lower pin. Then the flagpole fell in the eyes of everyone's amazement, and the fallen nature together with the canoe hanging on it.
O'Connor ignored these people's surprised expressions and hurriedly pushed the canoe into the water. After climbing on the canoe, he paddled towards the opposite bank The spiky girl was crying for help in panic. It turned out that the piranha had been released, and the lake water around the girl had turned red. O'Connor hesitated for only a second, and then rowed hard in his canoe.
"Take my hand!" O'Connor extended his hand to the girl despite the piranha in the water, as if that was not the girl who had mocked him mercilessly, but just an innocent passerby.
When the girl was rescued in a canoe, her body was bitten by several piranhas and her blood was red. O'Connor was bitten by a piranha because he reached into the water, a piece of meat the size of his finger was torn off, and the wound was bleeding.
O'Connor was about to treat the girl's wound, but the girl suddenly stood up and pushed O'Connor into the lake.
The piranhas continue to bite O'Connor's thin body, and the severe pain and blood loss gradually obscure O'Connor's consciousness.
At the last moment, he seemed to hear someone whispering, "Do you regret it?"
