…… As if to confirm that she was doing the right thing, the conversation with the apartment residents flashed back to her mind as Lin Sanjiu slowly walked out step by step.

…… The one who lived in room 207 was a slender woman, who was actually a head taller than Lin Sanjiu when she straightened up; When she lowered her head and spoke, Lin Sanjiu suddenly thought of a giraffe - "Yes, that's right, you're not an official resident yet." ”

She paused and continued expressionlessly, "...... To become a permanent resident, you must meet with a resident who is already living here twice or more. I've heard that there is another way as well...... What it is, I don't know. ”

Living in room 304 is a young couple, when the husband came to open the door, the petite wife kept smiling behind and shouted, "I'm still wearing pajamas, you close the door first" - but this scene Lin Sanjiu has already experienced once, and immediately stretched out a foot against the door, in the end let the husband finish speaking.

"You ask me if I can get out of the window? What are you kidding, if you don't go through the door, why should I climb the window...... The girl at 320 said there was no exit? That's because she's also an outsider and can't find an exit to settle in this building...... Of course, there is still a gate here. ”

Living in room 411 is a young man who looks like he is preparing for the exam; When he came to open the door, he still had a pen between his fingers, and he spoke impatiently: "I don't know what you asked, you wait a few minutes." When my mom comes back, why don't you come back? Won't come back a second time? ”

The young man bowed his head when he heard this, and his face was shrouded in shadows. After a while, he opened his mouth faintly: "...... Well, in that case, I'll tell you what I know. The security outside this apartment is not very good, and recently there are often some thieves or homeless people who crawl in from the outside, which has caused us a lot of influence. What the? Of course, you can also go out the way they came in...... But when you go out, you're a homeless person, and we don't allow that kind of person to live in our apartment -- oh. Shall I take you to see it? I can see those people right from my window......"

After coming out of room 411 as if he had escaped death. Lin Sanjiu knocked on the door of room 608.

"You're still preparing for the occupancy, there must be a lot of things missing in the room, right?" A chubby middle-aged uncle greeted her warmly, "...... Would you like some coffee? ”

Lin Sanjiu immediately shook his head. The middle-aged uncle put down the coffee pot with his hand, squeezed his body into the crack of the half-open door, and stared at Lin Sanjiu without blinking: "...... The management in this apartment is not strict. It's not just thieves or something that come in through the window. There are also people who don't know what to do knocking on the door. The first knock on the door is okay. I was angry when I knocked on the door the second time...... The last time I stuffed a guy into the fire escape outside the window, I found out afterwards that it seemed to be a friend of the new resident on the first floor. ”

…… There are six floors in total, except for Lin Sanjiu on the first floor, who did not go down because he was worried about "Ye Lan". She avoided the doors she had knocked on, and pulled out as much information as she could from each of the remaining dwellings; If you inquire more, you will find that the messages are generally divided into several categories - and of course, the occupants who have been knocked on the door almost without exception have resorted to various means to trick her into opening the door a second time.

But no matter what, Lin Sanjiu finally figured out a rough idea from these messages.

First of all, the amusement is divided into two parts: behind the apartment building she is very familiar with, there is actually a hidden, more dangerous "world outside the window"—from the way it sounds, there are only "thieves and vagabonds" in this "world outside the window": once the people in the apartment get out, they will never come back; The "people" on the outside can occasionally take advantage of the opportunity to appear in the apartment and cause a lot of "trouble" to the residents - but on the other hand, the residents here can use coercion or coaxing to get the evolutionary out of the window, just like the middle-aged uncle......

Although there is no way to know what the truth is now, Lin Sanjiu still has a timeline that she thinks should be very close to the truth.

After she enters the ride, the "world outside the window" is supposed to be the new death trap that will appear after the difficulty increases. When she went to knock on the door of room 601, Ye Lan turned her head and ran up to the seventh floor; Judging from the place where the glasses fell, it was probably in the bathroom window on the seventh floor, that he saw the evolutionary who had been stuffed out of the window by the middle-aged uncle before-according to the title of the middle-aged uncle, Ye Lan should have at least some trust in that person.

But at this time, the "people" outside the window are naturally no longer people.

Ye Lan is cautious and cautious, and he will not rush into a painting; Perhaps it was because of his caution that he died in the interior of the apartment building - in response to the slender woman's words, he met the second condition of becoming an "official occupant" and moved into room 101 completely.

After him, Reva finally left the window for some unknown reason; There is a high probability that she was frightened as she said, so she jumped out of the window of the old lady's room and was trapped in the "world outside the window".

If Lin Sanjiu hadn't come in, neither she nor Ye Lan would have died at the window; The series of actions of the two of them after this can probably be regarded as revenge in a way - and since the messages given by the residents of the apartment are random, the metaphors of the previous person and the next person may not be the same thing at all: for example, the words of the girl in room 320 are actually a way to distinguish between the official and the prospective residents; But the old lady was talking about "the world outside the window" - so she created an illusion for Lin Sanjiu, making her mistakenly think that the window in a certain room was the exit, and she almost fell for Leiwa.

And the "neighborhood meeting" should be the last hurdle in this apartment building.

…… At least that's what Lin Sanjiu guessed.

The feeling of walking among the "neighbors", probably she will never forget in her life-

All of a sudden, it became a dazzling light. Even the whiteness illuminates the inside of the eyelids; The gaze that fell on her was like substance, even if there was nothing around her when she walked all the way, Lin Sanjiu could still feel that she was walking in the "crowd" step by step.

The "occupants" were very close to her; In fact, it's a little too close...... Her left cheek itched slightly, as if it had been rubbed by some hair; If you think about it, it seems to be the eyelashes when you blink.

A pair of eyes were pressed to her face.

…… It's a really uncomfortable thought, and it makes people want to open their eyes right away.

"Ye Lan, are you here?" When he closed his eyes and slowly walked out from memory, Lin Sanjiu suddenly let out a low voice. She didn't dare to lean forward for fear of touching something. Therefore, every step is extremely slow. The eyelids and the voice were faintly trembling: "...... You must be here. ”

There was no response in the air around them.

“…… I'm sorry," After thinking about it for a while, Lin Sanjiu was finally able to say only these three words.

Even though she knew very well that it wasn't her fault. But whenever she thought of it, Ye Lan came up specially. stopped the look on his face when he continued to call the door. She felt a little astringent in her throat.

If he had stood by and let it go, then it would have been Lin Sanjiu who died. And not him.

Ye Lan was probably there, but even after hearing this apology, he still didn't say anything.

Sighing deeply in his heart, Lin Sanjiu tried his best to suppress the mixed emotions of fear and guilt, and tried his best to perceive everything around him.

The chaotic state of "pure touch" in the apartment building opened up unconsciously after closing my eyes, and I don't know when it gradually became clearer. As his perception became clearer and clearer, Lin Sanjiu knew that he was going in the right direction; After a sudden "bang", a fresh breeze rushed up to her face, blowing the hair on her neck and making her heart fall straight back into her stomach.

"Congratulations, you've completed the first game of 'The Haunted House'."

After waiting for a few seconds like a frightened bird, Lin Sanjiu opened his eyes tremblingly after he really felt the light of the sky shining on his shoulder.

The broad-shouldered young girl she had seen once was sitting behind a glass window in front of her: "...... You didn't have any special performance in this game, and you only got six stamina points, come and get it. ”

Looking back, in front of the warehouse-like building, the roller shutter door was slowly lowering - what apartment building, dark mahogany door, leaf blue...... There is no trace of any existence.

In the next second, Lin Sanjiu slammed into the window with the word "ticketing" written on it.

The huge bone wings fully unfolded under the anger, forming a sharp angle in mid-air, wrapped in momentum, and in the sound of glass shattering, the ticket window was shattered in an instant; The frightened young girl sat in the shadows cast by the wings of the forest, as if she didn't know what to do.

But in the next second, all of Lin Sanjiu's attacks froze with the female voice coming from the radio speaker.

"Player 57, please note that if you do not stop attacking the staff of the park, you will be punished with 50 HP points deducted...... Attention 57 player number ......"

However, even if she stopped attacking, Lin Sanjiu's anger was still completely uncontrollable - she waved her arm fiercely, and several large pieces of broken glass flew out to wipe the young girl's face: "Practice the haunted house? Is this a haunted house? What is a so-called 'sightseeing program'? ”

"This, according to the regulations, I can't tell you in advance," the girl swallowed her throat, whether it was her movements or expressions, she looked like an ordinary person, not like a creature in a copy. “…… Besides, how many people in the world have seen ghosts, isn't this more worth sightseeing than some famous mountains and rivers? ”

His chest fell together under the anger, and Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a long time, and finally let out a long breath.

"No wonder ......" Teacher Yi finally spoke up: "-No wonder! You cannot attack them, and they will not come against you! ”

"Yes," the young girl said, sitting up in a pane of glass, "how can a haunted house allow you to beat up a staff member at will?" Of course, the staff can't touch you. ”

Staff member......

Lin Sanjiu felt a little bitter in his mouth.

Ye Lan and Leiwa's two living lives, like a joke, were trapped behind this roller shutter door forever?

“…… If you don't pass the first level, what will happen to the evolutionary inside? She asked softly.

The girl glanced at her, and didn't answer directly—as if she was afraid that Lin Sanjiu would come up and lose 50 health points to vent her anger at herself—after thinking about it for a long time, she picked out the words and said, "This depends on their creation." Some people who are not completely in a desperate situation do not mean that they will never be able to get out......"

…… As hopeless as it may sound, it's better than having no room for manoeuvre at all.

Exhaled, Lin Sanjiu wiped his face and looked around.

The place where she came out was actually at the gate of the warehouse; The surroundings looked exactly the same as they had been before she entered, and it was unclear how long she had been inside.

As she asked the question, the young girl searched for a moment in a table and chair with broken glass and overturned desks, and then took out a watch.

"It's not long, you actually only spent less than four hours."

Four hours...... Lin Sanjiu frowned.

I don't know if it's enough time for the puppeteer to pass his amusement project - anyway, the past is gone, and now she has to do everything she needs to do to get through the level as quickly as possible.

"Okay, you hurry up and give me my stamina, I'm going to participate in the next game." Lin Sanjiu said a word to the young girl, and then stretched out his wrist.

A pair of girls with wide shoulders and full of clothes quickly picked up a device from the ground and swept it on her wrist. Probably a little afraid of her temper, the girl added: "...... It's a different scene this time, so don't mess around. ”

As the roller shutter door slowly opened again, Lin Sanjiu glanced at her, exhaled, and raised his feet to walk inside.

But to her surprise, before she could take this step, a pair of feet had already peeked out of the shadows behind the roller shutter door—and then a man came out from behind the door.

"Huh? Miss Lin, why are you here—I'm still looking for you, what a coincidence! ”

Arkor's eyes widened in surprise and he said. (To be continued.) )
