Chapter 179 Residential Building
Chapter 179 Residential Building
After the four of them finished shopping.
The clown merchant grabbed the cloth that was used to display his stall on the roadside.
He kneaded it, stuffed it into the collar of his red suit, bent down and bowed: "Thank you all for your consumption!"
"I wish you all can die without pain! Hahahaha!!"
The clown businessman disappeared here with crazy laughter.
I don’t know how he left, just as I don’t know how he got here.
Su Ming said, "First check how much money you have."
After searching for a while, Zhan Shen and the other three found less than 100 yuan in total from their possession.
The four of them combined didn't have half as much in Lamb's wallet.
Su Ming: "Let's go, let's find a place to live first."
He had to settle his three teammates first before he could go free.
After all, they brought them here themselves, so we should try our best not to let them die here.
If it were a player he didn't know, he would just give them a few simple reminders and that would be it. As for whether they could survive, it depended on their own luck.
He led the three of them toward the tallest residential building on the street.
Compared with other buildings, that building is much taller, like a tall and thin gray giant standing among a group of dwarfs.
The three Zhan Shens looked at the shops on this street curiously.
What a beautiful clothing store! The name of the store is quite straightforward. There is a promotional poster posted at the door.
It was a plaid suit in three shades of gray, black, and blue, with a slogan written on it: [Real men's suit, the only choice for successful people. Not 999999, not 99999, only 59999! ]
Wow, a suit costs 60,000 yuan.
The total money they have is less than 600 yuan. How can they afford it?
Starry Sky Internet Cafe.
This Internet cafe has two floors. You can see the environment inside through the glass. I can only say that it is okay overall. There are quite a few people surfing the Internet inside.
There was a large recruitment notice on the glass.
[Recruiting night shift network administrators, 150 yuan per night, salary is paid daily, no delays. ]
【Note: Please pay attention to your own safety during network management. No compensation will be provided if you go missing during work.】
Authentic beef noodles.
Red Moon Milk Tea Shop.
Golden iron plate fried rice.
Anmin Clinic, Third Street.
Gray City supermarket chain.
……
There are all kinds of shops on this small street.
It has everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation, and there are also entertainment facilities.
Normally, one can live quite well on this street.
Zhan Shen noticed one thing: "Why are most of these stores hiring workers? And they are all hiring night shift workers."
Zhang Tieshu: "It's fine for Internet cafes to hire night shift workers, but why do restaurants specifically hire night shift workers?"
Anxiety patient: "And they all specifically emphasize that there is no compensation for death or disappearance during work."
"Isn't this telling us that there is a high chance that something will go wrong when we are working?"
Zhan Shen: "Our mission is to return home in glory, plus the background introduction of the horror game, and the information of the previous bloody plot fragments."
"All these contents combined have pointed out the route to pass the customs - make money, buy clothes, and return home."
"From the current situation, the most dangerous and difficult step is to make money."
As a veteran player in the countermeasures bureau, he still has a certain level of standing god.
With the help of Zhang Tieshu, he soon figured out how to pass the level.
But they did not feel relieved at all.
Because it is not that difficult to analyze this kind of thing. They were able to analyze it. The two groups of players who came in before were all elite players in the Countermeasures Bureau, so they could naturally do it as well.
Even so, the entire army was wiped out.
This is enough to show that it is not difficult to realize this point, but the difficulty lies in execution. Su Ming said: "You just need to ensure your survival. I will take care of the money-making matters."
Walk to the residential building.
There is a wooden sign in front of the building, with various advertisements and house rental information on it.
Room 202 for rent: three bedrooms and one living room, 1200 yuan per month, one deposit and three payments.
Room 804 for rent: 1400 bedrooms and living room, yuan per month, one deposit and three payments, knives are allowed. Pets are not allowed.
Room 901 is for rent: three bedrooms and one living room, 1100 yuan per month, the master bedroom is available, and there are two secondary bedrooms, 300 yuan per month each.
……
Room 404 for rent: 200 bedrooms and living room, yuan per week, no deposit. Pets are allowed. You can live with your girlfriend. You can bring friends over for a party.
……
Among all the rental information, Room 404 is too conspicuous.
Not only is it cheap, you can pay the rent week by week, and there are no restrictions.
The conditions are too generous, which makes people feel that there is a trap.
Zhan Shen: "The money we have is far from enough to rent other houses."
"It seems that the only option is Room 404, but this room number looks unlucky at first glance!"
Su Ming directly took down the rental information of Room 404.
Then I walked into the vertical building. There was a low table at the door and a bald old man was sitting in front of it, wearing reading glasses and reading a newspaper.
The bald old man is the building manager of this building, which is a position similar to that of a property manager.
Su Ming directly put the rental information on the table: "Please help me contact the landlord."
The bald old man blinked hard, looked at the paper, and muttered, "Why is it 404 again?"
He raised his head, glanced at Su Ming and the other three, and said earnestly: "Young man, this room 404 is not a good place!"
"Don't underestimate the low rental price. Trying to save a little money can be fatal!"
"Just recently, three tragedies occurred in a row. Each time, all four residents died. It was so tragic."
He spread out the newspaper in his hand: "If you don't believe me, just look, it's so miserable!"
There was a conspicuous headline on the Gray City Morning Post: "Another tragic murder occurred in Room 404 of the Third Street Residential Building!!"
There are also some black and white pictures on it.
It records the tragic deaths of residents in four bedrooms.
After quickly reading the news, Zhang Tieshu's face was heavy: "They are the four players who entered the dungeon last time."
"I know what they look like in the horror game copy. They are these four people in the picture."
"I didn't expect that they would all die on the first night! This is too tragic!"
And judging by the pictures, they were wearing lamb suits.
Even with this life-saving plot prop, I didn’t expect that I still couldn’t survive the first night!
Su Ming took a quick look at the content reported in the newspaper and found that most of the information provided was wrong.
I can only say that, worthy of being a journalism student, he is really good at post-processing.
If any player takes the above information seriously, they will die very soon.
The bald old man sighed: "Alas! I think you are quite pitiful for leaving your hometown and coming here."
"It reminds me of when I was young, I also suffered a lot. It was only thanks to the kind people who helped me that I was able to settle down in this small town."
"How about this? I have a suite here with four bedrooms and a living room. I'll rent it to you for 200 yuan a week so you can have a place to stay. How do you think?"
Su Ming said calmly: "No need, we don't like to owe favors to others."
"Just help us contact the owner of room 404 to come down."
This bald old man is not a good person and has no good intentions.
If we really do as he says and live in his suite, it would be even more dangerous.
Seeing how determined he was, the bald old man sighed helplessly, "Alas... young man, why are you so defensive?"
"If you encounter danger at night in the future, come to the first floor to find me. Then, as an old man, I might be able to help you."
