Currently confined to a closed Apartment, he lingers inside, reluctant to come out. Even when he does open the door, he does so cautiously, only opening it a crack, while carrying a very loud Radio...

These rather obvious characteristics made it hard for Bai Zhi not to think of a timid person he knew.

And just as he had imagined, after running out of the dark, long tunnel in one breath, the other person first turned off the rather mood-disrupting Radio, and then, panting heavily, displayed their Player Information while supporting hands on their knees.

[Night Owl: Lv6]

"Phew... Hello, everyone..."

Putting the Radio back into his Inventory, Night Owl straightened up and, slightly out of breath, began to speak to the four Player in front of him.

... So, after I got my Radio back, you actually went and bought another Radio?

"It's truly a miracle that someone as timid as you has survived this long..."

With a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, Bai Zhi pointed to the half-open Security Door at the end of the road.

"Are you sure you don't want to close the door? We might be leaving this Corridor for somewhere else soon. We're going to be living here for Seven Days. If anything strange sneaks into your room while we're gone... Don't look, it's me."

Rolling his eyes, Bai Zhi displayed his Player Information.

[Black&White: Lv6]

Upon seeing the familiar ID, Night Owl's eyes first revealed a clear hint of joy, but after glancing back at the long, dark passage, his expression immediately became conflicted.

"... It's too dark, I'm afraid to go over there."

"Did you bring your Key?"

Bai Zhi touched his forehead with his hand.

"I brought it..."

The Night Owl inexplicably felt that his aura had been diminished.

"Alright, let's go then."

With a casual wave of his hand, Bai Zhi turned around with an indifferent expression, and the heavy Security Door closed silently and automatically the instant he turned.

--This dark environment is simply the perfect setting for Shadow Guard to perform their duties.

"... Remote control Skill?"

Looking at the closed Security Door over there, Zither-Drum Harmony narrowed his eyes slightly.

The corridor is about ten meters long, with a smooth white wall on one side and five long, dark passageways corresponding to the five rooms on the other. The Corridor is Lights up, and at the end is a tightly closed security door.

The Corridor is not wide; it can only accommodate one person at a time. If two people walk side by side, it will feel quite crowded, cramped, and narrow.

"The layout here feels like a prison..."

Perhaps it was the presence of others that gave her a little more confidence, but the Night Owl walking in the middle muttered a complaint under her breath.

"Maybe it's a prison. Who knows where this place is? There aren't even any windows in the room, and we don't even know where the ventilation holes are."

With PrayerUnderDreams, walking at the very back with his hands clasped behind his head after curling his lips in disdain, lazily began to speak.

"Surviving Seven Days in this bizarre place, who knows what might happen in the meantime? Maybe at night we'll hear footsteps in the hallway, the sound of marbles hitting the ceiling, or a hideous creature emerging from under the bed..."

"Enough! Is it fun to scare people at a time like this?"

Frowning, the Zither-Drum Harmony preceding PrayerUnderDreams interrupted her words.

Girl are naturally timid, and as one of only two female Player in the team, helping each other is essential.

"Of the six Key, one is for your own front door, and the other is for this door. Please remember this."

At this moment, Heavenless Heretic, who was walking at the front, turned around and waved a Key behind him.

As he spoke, he opened the door.

Next, a circular hall came into view, and the group filed in.

A chandelier hangs directly above the center of this circular hall, beneath which sits a circular conference table. A dozen or so chairs are arranged around the table, and a brochure sits in the very center of the table.

Besides the table, the most eye-catching things in the hall are probably the other three doors. The four doors, made of the same material as the ones they came out of, are located at the four directions of this Circular Hall, forming a cross that divides the circle.

Apart from the main gate they exited through, the other three main gates were all tightly closed.

"Is this Excavator Layout? What kind of Madman designed this bizarre layout?"

With a pained expression, Bai Zhi walked to the table first and picked up the manual in the center of the table. The large characters printed on the manual caught his eye.

[Apartment Resident Rules]

"... Apartment Resident Rules?"

As Bai Zhi read out the name of the manual, everyone else crowded around. Seeing this, Bai Zhi simply spread the few pages of the manual out on the table.
