Other Rooms
Room [501].
"... I strongly suspect they deliberately left this for me to clean up."
After everyone had left, Heavenless Heretic rolled his eyes at the leftover plates and bowls on the desk.
After locking the door, Heavenless Heretic tidied up the plates and bowls on the table and piled them in the sink. Although it wouldn't be wrong to just leave them there, he had a slight case of mysophobia.
A pile of unwashed dishes by the sink always made him feel quite uncomfortable.
"Huh? No way, the faucet is clogged?"
After turning on the tap for a long time without a single drop of water coming out, and instead accompanied by a continuous hissing sound as time went on, Heavenless Heretic couldn't help but feel quite puzzled and patted the tap with his hand.
His tap may have actually worked. With a soft sound, a large, dark mass was expelled from the faucet, followed by a stream of red water gushing from the faucet.
"Holy crap, I'm a book fetishist, you bastard!!"
Seeing the large clump of dirty, black hair in the pool and the blood gushing from the tap, Heavenless Heretic's face turned green.
Cursing, Heavenless Heretic turned off the tap, drained the sink completely, then put on thick Leather Gloves and, suppressing his nausea, put all the blood-stained dishes and utensils into a garbage bag.
After doing all this while grumbling and cursing, Heavenless Heretic turned the tap back on and started running water.
"Come on, keep going! Whoever chickens out today is a coward!! If you've got the guts, keep releasing them!!!"
As it turns out, there are times when you shouldn't say certain things carelessly. Do you really think people are just Anomaly? Don't you have any self-respect?
The very next second after Heavenless Heretic uttered that harsh statement.
The water pipe... burst.
Room [502].
"Game? I always feel like these Game are full of malice..."
Scanning the densely packed Game icons on the computer screen in front of her, which were too numerous to count at a glance, Meng Qi and Tu Shuxia muttered to themselves as they searched through the dazzling array of Game.
"Since it's connected to the network, it shouldn't be limited to just Game... By the way, do single-player Game even need a network connection? Will multiplayer Game even connect? To be honest, I'm a little skeptical..."
Just as he was hesitating for a long time and still couldn't decide which Game he wanted to play, the QQ icon in the lower right corner of the computer screen suddenly started flashing.
After discovering that his computer was connected to the internet, he habitually logged into his QQ account, hoping to contact his friends outside of his work.
Although he managed to log into QQ successfully, all his Friend's avatars were grayed out in the Friend list, and no one was talking in the QQ group he had joined.
After studying QQ for a while and finding that all his messages failed to send, he simply clicked the "X" to give up. However, he didn't expect that at that moment, there would suddenly be a sound.
Slightly puzzled, PrayerUnderDreams clicked the constantly flashing Loudspeaker in the lower right corner of the screen with his mouse, and a Friend request popped up in front of him.
[A person nearby, "A Pure Smile, Shy Blushing Cheeks", has requested to add you as Friend.]
"People nearby?"
Frowning slightly, PrayerUnderDreams opened the list of people nearby. The list was empty except for this one name.
[Ugly Rejection]
After thinking for a moment, PrayerUnderDreams decisively typed two words in reply, directly choosing to refuse.
The next second, another message came through, along with Friend request and a photo.
--The photo shows a Young Girl wearing a white dress, with waist-length hair, holding a book and facing away from the front.
Judging from the background of the photo, it seems to be taken in a room with a similar layout to the room he is currently in, and it appears to be taken while he is standing in front of a wardrobe.
"... The Resident of the other buildings in this Apartment?"
Looking at the newly sent photo, PrayerUnderDreams couldn't help but start guessing.
"But talk is cheap. If you're so capable, show your face! What's so interesting about just your back? In real life, there are plenty of people Shadow Kill '..."
With a slight pout, PrayerUnderDreams still clicked "decline" and logged out of her QQ account.
While you might be able to learn some truth about the Apartment from the other person, it's always better to be safe than sorry. Who knows if the person sending you the message is actually Resident from another floor, or someone Anomaly a ghost story?
PrayerUnderDreams didn't want to risk his life.
"Alright, next is Game selection. Fail, Pass, complete. Although we don't know what these points are for yet, it's better to choose some Mini-game just to be on the safe side..."
Temporarily forgetting about the Friend request that had come to her, after a little thought, PrayerUnderDreams, like Bai Zhi, also set her sights on those familiar Mini-game.
"[Minesweeper] is out of the question, it's all about luck, what if the first mine explodes? [Airplane Battle] doesn't seem very fun... Hmm, why can't I choose [Snake]?"
Looking at the [Snake] Game icon, which had turned gray and unselectable at some point, Mengqi couldn't help but feel slightly surprised.
"Because it's a single-player Game, does that mean only one person can choose?"
She pursed her lips, glanced casually at the clock hanging on the wall by the Cabinet, and then clicked on the PrayerUnderDreams icon next to the Snake Tetris.
After the mouse clicked, the computer screen went black for a moment, and then a scoreboard appeared on the screen.
[0/5000]
"Does this mean you need to get 5000 points to Pass?"
Raising an eyebrow, before PrayerUnderDreams delve deeper into the matter, a Shadow fell upon him.
As if she had just thought of something, PrayerUnderDreams quickly looked up and saw a convex-shaped cube that had appeared out of nowhere and occupied the entire length of the room, slowly falling down.
"Holy crap..."
Looking up at the huge cube slowly falling from mid-air, PrayerUnderDreams was completely stunned.
