353 Double Rule?

…… When Lin Sanjiu raised her hand, even she couldn't believe what she was about to do next—but the thought of doubt flickered away, and then she grasped the brass doorknob; With a "click", the handle turned in response, and with a gentle push, she slowly opened the crimson door of room 320.

Immediately, she stepped into one foot.

- It all started twenty minutes ago when she met Reva in the bathroom.

…… The black hair on the top of the bathroom door panel was like a nail in Lin Sanjiu's field of vision.

In a small space, the bone wings are too restrictive; She silently called out the [Tornado Whip], and the man had already bent over and quietly climbed onto the toilet seat, occupying a relatively high position.

“…… Push the door. A cool female voice echoed in the cubicle.

Once the real danger was in front of him, Lin Sanjiu was able to calm down - no matter what was outside the door, it was always much stronger than the feeling that he couldn't see or touch before, and that a punch was always empty.

The top of the hair moved slightly, and then the bathroom door was pushed open with a "squeak".

The door was obviously only lightly touched by the people outside—the door panel slowly slid open, revealing the normal-looking Leiwa gradually in Lin Sanjiu's gaze.

Dark brown hair, medium height, and a somewhat tired old face...... Indeed, it was the same Reva she had seen several times.

"What are you doing here?" As soon as Leiwa saw Lin Sanjiu's ready appearance, she immediately took a few steps back. The voice was full of surprise: "...... You want to do it to me? ”

The black line on the door panel has disappeared at some point; Everything outside the door looked the same as just now-Lin Sanjiu frowned, and the hand holding the [Tornado Whip] tightened, and finally he didn't act rashly.

It's easy to take on Reva here, but she doesn't want to get caught up in the fight.

After all, she didn't know much about this place......

"It's nothing, I'm just in case." Lin Sanjiu waved his hand, put away the [Tornado Whip], and after indicating that he had nothing left in his hand, he slowly walked out of the compartment. "Why did it take so long for you to change your clothes?"

Reva slowly relaxed her guard suspiciously, but there was still a few steps between her and her: "...... What takes so long? I'll be out soon. ”

If she continues to dwell on this issue, there will definitely be no answer - Lin Sanjiu squinted his eyes and swept her. In the end, it was a different topic.

“…… How much do you know about this place? What's next? ”

"Not much." "I've been in two or three rooms," said Reva dryly, "and they've been in two or three rooms, and they're all empty; There aren't even a few evolutionaries, and even if you want to get some news, you don't know who to turn to. ”

There was a pause. Lin Sanjiu watched her speak. “…… If you are looking for news. I know a way. ”

Reva looked up at her in a bit of confusion—the look of an evolutionary trapped in a dungeon ride.

Lin Sanjiu didn't explain much. Just motioned for her to follow her, then turned around and walked out of the bathroom.

…… To verify the truth of what Reva said, it is actually very simple.

Turn left from the women's restroom. It's the staircase; After instructing Teacher Yi to keep an eye on Leiwa behind him for him, Lin Sanjiu took the lead and led her to the sixth floor, and before she could completely walk down the stairs, she could already see the door of room 601 - next to it, room 603 was half exposed.

Stopped, Lin Sanjiu turned his head to look at Leiwa. "What rooms have you been into?"

"I've been in the first few rooms on the sixth floor," Reva's expression was a little uncertain, "...... What's wrong? ”

"Then you wouldn't mind going in again, would you?" Lin Sanjiu smiled at her calmly, "Don't enter 601, you can enter 603." ”

Reva seemed to be suspicious of this request, but after glancing at Lin Sanjiu, she still did it. While muttering, "Didn't I tell you everything, what else is there to see?" She turned 603's doorknob as she swrith—

At the same time that Lin Sanjiu's eyes widened slightly, the door of 603 was really opened by Leiwa.

As if to prove himself, he said, "Look! Leiwa didn't wait for Lin Sanjiu to say anything, and then stepped into the house.

From the staircase where Lin Sanjiu was, only a part of the house could be seen through the half-open door; There was a vase of dried flowers on the shoe cabinet at the entrance, and next to it was an empty coat rack, and further inside, it was blocked by the wall.

You can really get in!

As soon as this thought came to mind, even Lin Sanjiu herself didn't realize that she had immediately rushed in the direction of 603; Reva's voice came from inside the house, "Come and see, this is an empty house that no one lives in......"

A gust of wind rushed up to his face, blowing the broken hair in front of Lin Sanjiu's forehead into the air. When she was faintly stunned, feeling that something was not right, the door of room 603 in front of her had been "banged" by the wind—Reva's half-sentence suddenly stopped, and even the tail note was pinched clean, as if it had never sounded.

Lin Sanjiu was stunned at the door.

…… After standing in a dead silence for an unknown amount of time, she raised a slightly trembling hand.

"Knock", "knock", two hesitant knocks on the door, leisurely spread far away in the corridor.

No one answered.

Lin Sanjiu's left palm was already sweaty, and he squeezed the card of the [Tornado Whip] tightly. She held her breath and listened for a moment, and after the echo died down, there was still as silence in the apartment building as it had just been.

Just as she raised her right hand again, intending to knock on the door one more time, the doorknob of Room 603 turned, and the crimson wooden door was silently pulled open a crack.

A human face peeked out of the crack - but not Reva.

…… The person who opened the door was an old lady with a smile on her face.

The silver-gray hair was made into a neat curl. The loose skin folded into deep folds on the face; Everything on her face was down, except for a mouth with red lipstick, which was now raised high to form two pointed corners.

"Little girl, who are you looking for?" The old lady asked with a slow smile, her voice soft and hoarse.

This, this is definitely the occupant of the apartment-

Lin Sanjiu involuntarily took a step back, feeling the edge of the card clumping into her palm, and she calmed down slightly: "...... Who are you? Didn't you see a woman enter this room just now? ”

"I've lived here for twenty years, and I haven't seen anyone coming," from under the old lady's lowered eyelids. A pair of gray eyes were looking at Lin Sanjiu motionlessly; When she laughs. It seems that a mouth is particularly large: "...... There were a few thieves, but I was too old to catch them, so they all ran away through the windows. ”

Window?

Lin San's drunkard raised his eyes in a daze. Over the top of the old lady's gray head. She happened to see an open window on the wall opposite the doorway.

Outside the window was an alley - yet so far away. So much so that she couldn't be sure if it was just a particularly realistic painting or a real alley.

But she remembered the feeling of being caressed on her cheek by a gust of wind.

…… So, did Reva leave through the window?

"If you're okay. I'll just go back and rest. When the old lady was talking, her eyes didn't leave Lin Sanjiu for half a second; She smiled and slowly closed the door: "...... Come and sit with me when you have time, my mother-in-law is very happy to see the young man. ”

The door of room 603 was closed again in front of Lin Sanjiu.

As soon as the wooden door closed, the apartment building fell into a lifeless silence. There was neither the sound of footsteps nor the sound of breathing from behind the door, as if it were just an inanimate thing standing across the door...... Lin Sanjiu suddenly shook, turned around sharply, turned around and rushed to the staircase.

"Where are you going?" Teacher Yi exclaimed.

"I—I have an idea," Lin Sanjiu's voice trembled slightly, "I think both of them are right." ”

"What do you mean?"

"In this apartment building, there must be two rules in parallel: 'knock on the door' and 'enter'," she replied quickly in the sound of the stairs under her feet, "What Ye Lan and Leiwa found must be the truth, and there is no problem with the two of them - at least, there should be no problem before just now." ”

If the evolutionary knocks on the door, then there will be "people" who will answer the door; But if you just push the door or open it yourself before someone answers, then the apartment should be empty...... This also explains why Ye Lan and Reva have diametrically opposed statements!

And from my own experience, the residents of this apartment building will probably come to coax the evolutionary to knock on the door, just like the group of young men and women and old ladies-

rushed down the third floor in one breath, and in his own heartbeat that was as violent as thunder, Lin Sanjiu took a breath hard, and then walked to the door of room 320 and twisted the doorknob.

Most likely, she was wrong; If she's wrong, then what happens next?

…… However, the door to 320 opened.

As Lin Sanjiu guessed, the room she had seen once was being empty in front of her at this time. The stains and empty bottles were still there, but the "people" were gone—even the smell of burning plants in the air was gone.

Holding the door with his bone wings to prevent it from closing, Lin Sanjiu cautiously took two steps inside.

Behind the window of room 320 is a desert landscape; Although it was as realistic, she could conclude after one glance that it was just a painting.

A little stunned, Lin Sanjiu quickly left room 320 - she was especially careful not to let the bone wing touch anything when she left; As long as the things in 320 didn't open the door because of the sound she made, it shouldn't be a "third knock".

Hanging with a heart, she still went down to the first floor smoothly.

"Looks like you're right." Teacher Yi also sounded a little speechless, "But...... Even if you know this, you still can't find an exit! ”

Glancing at the door of room 101, Lin Sanjiu did not walk over, but took a step towards the depths of the corridor. She frowned, and as she thought, she replied in a low voice, "...... Such a rule must be meaningful; Finding an outlet is certainly inseparable from these rules......"

To test her thoughts, she started at room 120, the last room in the hallway, and opened each door without notice; As she thought, the rooms were likewise empty, and there was not a trace of any inhabitant; The paintings behind the windows are different from each one.

"It's the same here," Lin Sanjiu stood at the door of Room 108, and after a general glance inside, he didn't know whether he was disappointed or relieved and said, "...... Nothing. ”

It's a bachelor apartment, so small that you can take in the whole room at a glance; Just as she was about to close the door and go to the next room, she suddenly heard a soft, familiar voice behind her: "...... Miss Lin. ”

It's leaf blue.

Since it didn't play any role here, she had already been shut down by Teacher Yi, and Lin Sanjiu couldn't see the scene behind her at this time—but at this moment, she suddenly thought of something, and all the hairs on her body immediately exploded.

…… The reason why Ye Lan mistakenly thought that Room 101 was the so-called "Shengmen" was because Room 101 was empty. However, he knocked on the door and pushed it open to enter, so Room 101 was empty - that is, if he had knocked on the door and waited a little longer, someone might have answered the door......

But Ye Lan didn't wait, he went in; And settled in room 101.

In this sense, he and Reva were doing the same thing - they both "lived" in the apartment regardless of whether they were still alive at the time.

"Miss Lin, did you hear me?" Ye Lan's voice echoed softly in the corridor, sounding as if she was getting closer and closer to her step by step, "I seem to have found a way out...... Would you like to check it out? ”

…… Lin Sanjiu will not forget that he has knocked on the door of room 101 twice.

The Tornado Whip suddenly appeared in her left hand, followed by a fierce wind that swept towards the source of the sound; This time she used a lot of strength, but when the blow that was enough to shatter half of the building dissipated, Ye Lan's voice sounded quietly close to her ears.

"Miss Lin, why don't you turn around?"

When he said this, there was not a trace of air in the air. (To be continued.) )
