Everyone: "......"

This guy is still lying in bed with nightmares about being punished by the last position.

Looking at Qin Rang's sleeping soundly, it really didn't look like he had experienced any crisis last night, but this collapsed door showed that there had been a fierce battle here.

"Hey, if you don't get up again, you'll be punished for being late." Ji Xiaoye couldn't stand it anymore.

Qin Rang opened his eyes with hindsight, he looked at the people at the door sleepily, and only after a while did he let out an unconscious "ah" sound.

"Are you going to be late?!" Qin Rang quickly sat up and finally came to his senses.

At this moment, Qi Jiu, who had a wet towel around his neck, walked out of the bathroom: "Everyone, morning. ”

Qi Yan greeted him with a smile as usual, he knew that everyone was observing his room and his state at the moment.

But the thoroughly cleaned dormitory had an unobstructed view, but there was no sign of it, and he had already put away the remaining spray paint and disinfectant.

"You encountered a monster last night, right?" Ji Xiaoye asked directly.

Qi Yan replied frankly: "Well, there is an 'uninvited guest' coming." ”

He didn't go on, and everyone understood that he didn't inform them of the repulsion of the 'uninvited guest'.

Wu Ghost asked tentatively, "What does your dormitory seem to smell like?" ”

Qi Yan pretended not to know what he was referring to, and said casually: "This ghost place has always been filled with a fishy smell that can't be dispersed, it's really annoying." ”

"Looks like there was one less person last night." He quickly looked at the crowd and said.

Ji Xiaoye glanced at Wu Ghost: "His roommate is seriously injured and is resting in bed. ”

In fact, Ji Xiaoye was a little surprised, and the two of them in the 1079 dormitory were able to appear in front of everyone with their hands and feet, which showed that her previous speculation was wrong - sacrificing her roommates is not the only answer to save her life.

Ji Xiaoye looked at Gu Zhenzhen beside him and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Yan wrung out the towel and hung it up, and Ji Xiaoye was sharp to find that there was a corrosion mark on his neck.

The symptoms are similar to those of the molten man's body.

"You're hurt?" Ji Xiaoye asked.

Qi Yan nodded: "I was splashed by the monster's slime." ”

The pain and burning sensation in his neck continued to intensify, and Qi Jiu, who was awakened by the pain, used cold water to cool the wound, and he planned to go to the infirmary to get some alcohol to disinfect again.

His physique is already weaker than ordinary people, and if the wound infection worsens, the consequences can be serious.

To make matters worse, his pleasure rating also drops rapidly after being corroded.

Ji Xiaoye handed a painkiller to Qi Jiu, who glanced at her and took the medicine: "Thank you." ”

Now he is in dire need of painkillers, and of course, he will exchange them with something valuable.

"You're welcome, you gave us gloves yesterday too." Ji Xiaoye has always disliked owing favors.

It was already half past eight in the morning, and everyone received a communication message from Mr. Lorde—

[Good morning, I hope you had a great first night at the Bates factory, and the start time is approaching, so please arrive at the workshop as soon as possible to start the day's work.] ]

So the group began to walk in the direction of the workshop, and when they passed by the 1051 dormitory, Qi Yan and Qin Rang took a look at the situation in the dormitory.

Qin Rang was so frightened that he almost couldn't hold back his vomit, while Qi Yan frowned, and his gaze shifted from the murderer to the stove standing next to the single bed that was not completely extinguished.

"Did you have a stove last night?" Qi Yan asked Ji Xiaoye next to him.

Ji Xiaoye shook his head: "It's true that she has thermal insulation props." ”

Qi Yan nodded and fell silent, he looked thoughtfully at the stove again.

In other words, among the three groups of people last night, only Ji Xiaoye's group did not have a fire in the stove.

And only their group is "Christmas Eve".

So one of the trigger rules for "uninvited guests" is the stove?

If this is the case, then the part of the fourth rule that has been blocked out of the fourth rule, "If you hear ▇▇, please ▇▇▇▇▇, if you don't do it, the consequences will be" are likely to be related to the stove.

But there are so many variables in the known clues.

In addition to the difference of the stove, the indoor temperature is a big issue. The room temperature of Ji Ono's group is maintained above 26 degrees according to the rules of the dormitory, and it is normal not to encounter monsters.

Qi Zhen decided to observe for another night.

"Any ideas?" Ji Xiaoye asked Qi Jiu, "In exchange, I can continue to provide you with painkillers, we have prepared a lot of these things, and we can also supply you with thermal insulation props in the next few days." ”

"Of course, the manipulation skills that are within my ability are perfectly fine." Ji Xiaoye gave the trading weight.

Qi Yan smiled: "Deal." ”

"The guy with the broken leg in room 1051 was sacrificed by the Wu Ghost," Qi Ji synchronized the monster characteristics tested last night to Ji Xiaoye, and he emphasized, "Ordinary attacks can't cause substantial damage to monsters, and continuous attacks can make it stay in place and have no time to attack, but this is too energy-consuming and props." ”

"There is no trace of contraband in the Witch's room, which means that either the Ghost has enough offensive props and strong mental power to consume the whole night, or ...... After consuming his companion's legs, the monster left with a full meal and drink. ”

Ji Xiaoye realized: "So the purpose of the 'uninvited guest' is to come and fill the stomach with humans?" ”

"My guess is that the rules of the dormitory exist to prevent employees from being attacked by monsters." Qi Ji continued, "In this way, the first clause of the dormitory rules, "Please cherish your roommates", has also been explained, because monsters are only to be fed, so sacrificing roommates in extreme situations can save their lives. ”

For a moment the crowd fell silent.

Gu Zhenzhen shuddered: "What the hell is this monster......

Ji Xiaoye thought for a moment: "I think the biggest possibility is that these monsters are mutants of rosefish. ”

"Rosefish will turn into monsters at night to hunt in the factory dormitory area, because they need to eat human flesh," Ji Xiaoye analyzed, "and the injured and infected employees in the workshop said that they were sent to the infirmary, but obviously, they will be silently transferred to other places and never have a chance to come back, I guess they are made into human meat feed for rosefish." ”

Qin Rang nodded: "I feel that it can be rounded up like this." ”

"And what is the infection?" Qi Yan asked as if he were talking to himself.

Ji Xiaoye: "It's likely that this is an excuse to make adult meat feed?" ”

Qi Zhen shook his head: "But the symptoms of infection are real. ”

Ji Xiaoye furrowed her brows and didn't answer, because she knew that the other party's question was not wrong.

Qi Zhen: "In addition to the infection not being clarified, there is also the yellow mucus I saw in the infirmary. ”

After all, what I saw in the infirmary was the same mucus as last night's "uninvited guest".

Rather than saying that the injured employee will be made into human feed, Qi Ji prefers that last night's "uninvited guest" was a mutant of the injured employee.

INTERVIEWER What happens when you become infected? How much truth does the plant management know? What is the purpose of the factory? What happens to monsters after eating human flesh?

Too many questions go unanswered.

It seems that we have to think of a way to let the new "uninvited guests" sit in the dormitory for a while longer, Qi thought to himself.

Chapter 15: Canned Rosefish (15)

Mr. Lord was already dressed and waiting in the workshop: "Welcome, everyone, did you rest last night?" ”

His gaze swept over everyone: "It seems that there is still one employee who has not arrived." ”

Wu Ghost replied: "My roommate was sick last night and can't come to the workshop to continue working today, so I will take a day off for him." ”

Mr. Lorde's smile froze for a moment, and then the arc of the crack became even more exaggerated: "Okay, I understand, employee No. 5 is on leave today due to illness. ”

"Need a trip to the infirmary?" Mr. Lord asked again.

"He's just having a common headache and cold, and he'll be fine by resting." Ghost replied that he didn't want his subject to be admitted to the infirmary right now.

For Wu Ghost, his roommate was seriously injured by the monster last night, which can be used as a test to observe the consequences of serious injury.

Even if tomorrow the roommate will be sent away because of the last-place punishment system, tonight's observation time must be enough.

At least through tonight.

Mr. Lord was silent for a moment: "I'm sorry for what happened to Employee No. 5 and look forward to his return to the workshop after a good rest." ”

To everyone's surprise, Mr. Lord did not force his wife killer to go to the infirmary.

"Please cherish your roommates." Mr. Lord emphasized one more sentence.

The people who had already figured out the rules for sacrificing their roommates to save their lives didn't pay much attention to this sentence, only Qi Zhen frowned.

The rule of "cherish your roommates" has been clearly written down in the House Rules, and it stands to reason that Mr. Lord has no reason to repeat it again......

"Because of the change in production personnel, I'm going to regroup you today," Mr. Lord said, "Employees No. 1, No. 2 and No. 6 are responsible for canning, and No. 3 and No. 7 are responsible for the assembly line. ”

No. 7 employee Qi research: "......"

No. 3 Ji Xiaoye glanced at him and shrugged helplessly.

It has been explored that the head of the fish can accelerate the decline of pleasure value, and assembly line work symbolizes a higher risk.

After being corroded by slime, Qi Jiu's pleasure value has dropped rapidly, and now he has stacked the debuff of the assembly line......

Worse.

It seems that today's luck is very bad.

Qin Rang, who was favored by luck, was very unenergetic today: "I always feel very dangerous when I am in a group with guys who are experimenting with my companions." ”

Ji Xiaoye: "Now there are no rules in the workshop that need to be tested, and he won't take you for no reason." ”

"What you need to worry about is the 7th," Ji Xiaoye glanced at Qi Jiu, whose face was obviously paler, "The big guy doesn't seem to be in a very good state today." ”

The pain in the wound on the neck has become more and more intense, to the point that painkillers cannot be controlled.

After a morning's work, Qi Jiu's pleasure value fell to 50 points.

Qi Jiu: "Teacher System, may I ask what is the approximate price of exchanging survival coins for pleasure value?" ”

The system reminded at the beginning that survival coins can be exchanged for pleasure points, but the price is too high, so Qi Zhen does not plan to use his survival coins unless it is a last resort.

[Based on today's exchange rate: 100 survival coins = 1 pleasure point]

Qi Zhen gave up: "...... Thanks, I see. ”

1 pleasure point can't turn the tide, but 100 survival coins is most of his possessions.

The way of exchange is not suitable for the poor, it seems that you have to find a way from the plot of the dungeon... Qi Ji pondered, and his eyes turned to the infirmary.
