Chapter 8 Something's Wrong with 508
"Remember to come find me," Su Yumin told him. He was standing in the fire escape on the 9th floor. He waved again in Yan Xun's sight before leaving the fire escape.
After leaving the management office, the floor numbers in the building changed once again.
Yan Xun glanced at the floor indicator for the floor below him.
"Fifth floor." He glanced at the number on the screen.
He remembered that when they first appeared in this instance, they were all in 508, which was actually quite illogical.
"Why is this unreasonable?" the system asked.
“It’s normal for the initial loading location to be either our individual rooms or the common area on the first floor,” Yan Xun said as he walked downstairs. “The common area on the first floor is because we are all residents of the building and we also need to go to the management office to collect supplies.”
“It’s reasonable for them to stay in their own rooms.” After all, they are residents of the building.
“But 508 is no one’s room, so we shouldn’t be here.”
As he spoke, Yan Xun had already reached the 5th floor. He glanced at the floor number, then pushed open the emergency exit door and walked out.
The fifth floor was quiet at this time, and it was unclear whether it was because the appearance of the fake man made the residents afraid to go out, or for some other reason.
Yan Xun passed by several rooms and found the doors tightly closed... He glanced at the room to his left.
Room 504.
"Knock knock." He knocked directly on the door.
【!! Host!!】The system was so startled it almost jumped up. 【What if it's a fake human?!】
"It's nothing," Yan Xun said, then continued to stand in front of room 504, knocking on the door.
About half a minute later, a man's voice came from inside—
Who is it?
"The one downstairs from you," Yan Xun said without changing his expression.
"Downstairs? What does downstairs want with me?"
"You're too noisy," Yan Xun said, continuing to knock on the door. "Too noisy."
The other person seemed unwilling to pay attention to him, but Yan Xun kept knocking on the door, so the other person reluctantly opened it and then looked at Yan Xun with annoyance.
Are you crazy?
Yan Xun glanced at the man who was about the same height as her, and the man had dyed his hair green.
"It's a bit noisy," Yan Xun continued.
"I was just sleeping." The green-haired man leaned against the door frame with one hand, blocking Yan Xun's view with his body. "Are you deaf?"
"I heard a lot of noise," Yan Xun lied without batting an eye. "Also, it's very noisy over in 508."
"nerve."
"Everyone in 508 is dead..." He said, then suddenly seemed to sense something was wrong, looking in the direction of 508 with lingering fear, then looking at Yan Xun, "...You really heard the sound?"
"I heard you."
Yan Xun said he stepped back a little.
"I'll go check out 508."
As he spoke, he walked towards 508 in front of the green-haired man.
Perhaps it was because Yan Xun's expression and behavior were too strange... Green Hair stood at the door, looking him up and down, seemingly trying to determine whether the other party was a fake.
"You guys went to 508 yesterday," Green Hair began.
Yan Xun knew he was referring to him and those other players. "Yes." He looked at the green-haired man. "You found out?"
“I’m not deaf,” Green Hair said, but he still didn’t come out of the door. He just said to Yan Xun, “Anyway, you guys shouldn’t meddle in other people’s business.”
"If there are any problems, the security guards will take care of them."
As he spoke, he seemed to realize something was wrong, and after a shudder, he closed the door in front of Yan Xun.
The system finally breathed a sigh of relief.
[Host, why did you knock on the door just now?!]
What if he's a fake? You'd be in big trouble then.
"Didn't you say I could watch a 30-second ad to revive?" Yan Xun asked matter-of-factly. "If there's a real problem, I'm prepared to watch an ad to revive."
system:……
"You're lying to me?"
"No," the system stammered. "But this is a newbie perk; it'll be gone once it's used up."
Yan Xun didn't care about what the system said... He was actually thinking about a question just now.
The dungeon only states that residents are not allowed to go out between 10 PM and 7 PM, and from the chat, it is learned that the fake people will be dealt with by the building's security guards.
To uncover the secrets, besides exploring the building, the best way is definitely to talk to the residents.
The following points are already known:
1. There are indeed imposters in the Meimei Building.
2. There are surveillance cameras in the corridor.
3. Security guards will come and remove any fake people they discover.
—Although these were all said by that fake flip-flop man, Yan Xun felt they were 90% true. He saw the security camera in the corridor and also met the security guard who arrived at the scene immediately.
In addition, he also had Chi Yuan's phone number.
So Yan Xun decided to take a gamble, and then learned that everyone in room 508 was dead.
"We're not security guards, why would we go to room 508?" Yan Xun said to the system as he walked. "Mind your own business?"
"curious?"
"And it was at night, almost 10 o'clock, and they were still in room 508 without leaving."
As he spoke, he had already reached the half-closed door of room 508.
There was an indescribable smell inside the door. Yan Xun couldn't remember what it was for a moment, but he just felt that the smell was unpleasant.
He pushed open the half-closed door and walked into the living room where they had arrived yesterday when they first entered the instance.
The living room was neatly arranged, and there was a series of footprints on the floor... They looked like human footprints, but humans don't have toes that long.
The doors to the bedroom and study were both tightly closed.
Yan Xun didn't hesitate and walked straight towards the bedroom. He opened the tightly closed bedroom door and then turned around and closed it again.
Then I felt that the strange smell became even stronger.
There weren't many things in the room, and as Yan Xun was about to check them one by one... he suddenly heard footsteps.
He thought for a second, then simply crawled under the bed.
Just as he lay down, he heard very light footsteps, which were clearly directed toward the bedroom of room 508.
Yan Xun lay down below, trying to make his breathing even softer.
"Click".
The person opened the door.
Then I slowly walked to the bed.
He seemed to be investigating something as well... After looking around the room, he suddenly stopped at the edge of the bed.
Yan Xun: "..."
From his angle, all he could see were black trousers.
Yan Xun felt that the clothes looked familiar for some reason, and then he saw the person squat down, and then a familiar face appeared in front of him.
"...What a coincidence?" Yan Xun lay under the bed, turning his head to look at Li Wu.
Li Wu looked at him and said, "Don't hide under the bed next time."
"The target is too obvious."
Yan Xun crawled out from under the bed, brushing the dust off his clothes as he asked Li Wu, "When did you find out?"
"You're following me?"
"What a coincidence," Li Wu said. "Aren't you the same as me?"
He looked at Yan Xun, who had tied her hair up, and then at the dust on her clothes. "I noticed something was wrong with 508, so I came back to check."
