Chapter 64 Entering the Apartment
Chapter 64 Entering the Apartment
Snap! Crack!
Snap! Crack!
The ground was covered with wooden planks, and with each step, it made a sharp, grating "creak, creak" sound.
Zhao Hai looked around and found that the apartment was quite large, with the lobby alone covering an area of over a hundred square meters.
However, due to years of neglect, the entire hall looks somewhat old.
The eight extraordinary beings stood in front of the hall, not daring to relax in the slightest.
After looking around, an old wooden blackboard on the front desk caught everyone's attention.
The wooden board was small and rough-grained, with a few lines of words written on it in chalk. It was only barely legible when illuminated by a candle and a cell phone!
[Safe Apartment Rules]
【1. Stay for at least three days!】
2. Complete the task within the specified time!
3. Do not damage the facilities in the apartment!
It has been watching you all along!!
Upon seeing the blurry handwriting, everyone except Zhao Haiwai gasped in shock! Their faces turned extremely grim.
Although they had long suspected it was a rule-based anomaly, they still harbored a sliver of hope until they actually encountered it.
Nobody wants to encounter rule-based anomalies! Including Sequence Anomalous Ones!
When faced with rule-based anomalies they had never seen before, even those with extraordinary sequences were no different from ordinary people in the face of rules!
It takes countless lives to figure out its rules, but even so, escaping is no easy feat!
Of course, if they encounter something like the Sugar Doll, whose rules are bizarre and for which Zhao Hai and his group already have information, then it doesn't matter!
After all, once you understand the bizarre rules, escaping from them isn't difficult at all!
Therefore, it is extremely important to grasp this kind of strange information!
This was the first time Xu Wenchu and his group had encountered such bizarre rules, which meant they would have to use human lives to constantly test and discover these strange rules!
"I never expected the rules to be so bizarre. We're really lucky! To encounter something with bizarre rules in such a remote place! And we never imagined that this apartment building itself would be the one with bizarre rules!" Ding Jiawei said with a wry smile.
"Don't rush to sigh, let's think about dealing with the current trouble!" Li Tianyu reminded him.
Zhou Jian'an's expression calmed down considerably. "What else can we do? Let's follow the rules on the blackboard. I just don't know if those rules are correct!"
"We can only try slowly!" Xu Wenchu sighed.
The rules are strangely and deliberately revealed. Even if you follow them, you may not survive, but if you don't follow them, you will definitely not survive!
The three rules on the blackboard are just the basic rules; there must be hidden rules as well!
Therefore, truly surviving here and eventually escaping is by no means easy!
After exchanging glances, Zhao Hai and the other three had roughly made up their minds.
Since we can't leave, let's follow the apartment's rules!
Zhou Jian'an said in a deep voice, "Let's split up and see if there's any other information in this apartment! If we find anything, let each of us know! How about it?"
"No problem!" Xu Wenchu agreed.
Faced with bizarre rules, only by exchanging information and working together can we have a chance to escape from them. Therefore, Xu Wenchu would not be foolish enough to refuse.
Afterwards, Xu Wenchu explained the situation to the ordinary members of the Star Train team before they dispersed. He even specifically emphasized to them not to damage anything in the apartment!
"What do you mean? Are you going to team up in pairs?" Zhao Hai asked the group.
"Okay! But this time you'll be paired with Wanyue!" Xu Wenchu said.
"Okay!" Seeing that the others had no objections, Zhao Hai nodded.
It seems that Xu Wenzhu, that old charlatan, paired Su Wanyue with him because he was afraid of being teased by her, so he wanted to pair her with Wang Hu instead.
"Zhao Hai and I will go to the second floor, you two go to the third floor and take a look!" Su Wanyue said.
The apartment appears to have three floors, and Su Wanyue shared her thoughts.
"Okay! Then Wang Hu and I will take a look on the first floor first, and then go to the third floor to take a look!" Xu Wenchu nodded.
Zhao Hai remained silent and went upstairs with Su Wanyue.
A dim yellow lamp hangs in the hallway, illuminating the deep space.
"There are lights?" Su Wanyue said, somewhat surprised.
"We can't use common sense to deduce things when faced with something strange!" Zhao Hai said, not finding the presence of lights odd at all.
There are lights and electricity here, and even the old floor seems to have been cleaned, as there isn't much dust.
It doesn't seem to have been abandoned for long, but rather it has existed for a long time and is slightly worn.
"Squeak! Squeak!"
Accompanied by the creaking of the dilapidated stairs, the two arrived at the second floor.
Looking out, there is a long, black corridor.
The corridor was long, at least 50 meters, with neat rows of guest rooms on both sides, much like those ordinary hotels before the apocalypse.
"I didn't expect that from the outside, the second and third floors of this apartment wouldn't look very big, but once you come up, the second floor is so big, basically twice the size of the first floor! Sure enough, this kind of strangeness really can't be judged by common sense!" Su Wanyue continued.
"Yes! Ever since the strange phenomenon appeared, the whole world can no longer be judged by normal standards!" Zhao Hai added.
The second floor is darker than the first floor, the corridors are narrow, and the ceilings are lower, making it extremely oppressive and suffocating.
"Let's just find a room and go in and take a look!" Zhao Hai suggested.
"OK!"
Su Wanyue took the lead, walked at the front, opened the nearest room 202, and went straight in.
Su Wanyue appeared relaxed, but in reality, she gripped the knife handle tightly in her right hand, ready to respond to any unexpected situation.
"Snapped!"
As the door opened, a dim yellow light came on, illuminating the small room, and a musty, musty smell wafted out.
Inside was a large bed, a dim lamp, a chair, and no other decorations.
The restroom is on the right-hand side upon entering.
In the bathroom, there was a toilet covered in yellow stains and a rusty showerhead.
Due to the cramped space, there wasn't even a separate area for wet and dry areas; the toilet and showerhead were right next to each other.
"Tsk tsk, if we take a shower here, does that mean we have to squat in the toilet to shower?" Zhao Hai couldn't help but complain.
Hearing this, Su Wanyue was speechless: "You really plan to take a bath here?"
"How could that be? This is a bizarre rule. If I accidentally touch a hidden rule while taking a bath here and get killed by the bizarre rule, I'll have nowhere to cry." Zhao Hai waved his hands repeatedly.
"You're right!"
