Chapter 295 Aren't you responsible?

In room 0409, Zhang Guofu and several other players who had agreed to stay together were still awake at this hour.

In reality, the dungeon is fraught with danger. Under such intense pressure, the only truly exceptional person is someone who can sleep soundly like Jiang Liyue in the real world.

Like Zhang Guofu and others, most players were anxious and unable to sleep.

Especially considering that the apartment they're staying in tonight might be inhabited by a deadly killer who could break into their home, murder them, and eat them, how could anyone sleep?

Jiang Liyue, who had fallen asleep peacefully in the drafty room, turned over: "I can sleep well..."

Zhang Guofu encouraged the players in the lobby to stay together so they could better deal with the killer.

Not everyone bought into it, but in the end, he managed to gather six players, including himself.

The six of them rented only one house.

Of course, Luo Si looked at them with a strange expression and asked them if they were sure.

Zhang Guofu didn't think too much about it and nodded without hesitation: "Of course."

Luo Si didn't say anything more.

"Brother Zhang, do you think the killer will come here tonight?" A chubby male player sat on the sofa, nervously looking at the door.

Before Zhang Guofu could answer, another gaunt man spat at him: "Pah, pah, pah, don't say such terrifying things."

"That's right, that's right. There are a total of 200 households in apartment 444, and judging from the apartment group that Brother Zhang joined, there are more than 190 households. How could we be so unlucky as to be the ones chosen?"

Zhang Guofu nodded: "That's right, everyone, don't be anxious, calm down."

However, although he appeared calm on the surface, he couldn't help but feel panicked inside.

Zhang Guofu is not a top-tier player; he has only cleared four dungeons in total. In the last dungeon, he was lucky enough to be carried by a top player to get out of the A-level dungeon.

It was because of his experience in A-level dungeons that Zhang Guofu believed he was already a capable person, which is why he started recruiting followers as soon as he entered a dungeon.

Enjoying the admiring gazes of others, Zhang Guofu's ego swelled considerably.

He was chatting with the residents he had added in the group on his phone.

【1701—Qian Lai】: I think I heard the sound of chopping upstairs. The killer probably went upstairs tonight.

Qian Lai was added by Zhang Guofu in the group chat, or perhaps Qian Lai took the initiative to add him as a friend privately while chatting in the group.

Qian claimed to be a money-grubber, and said he wouldn't mind revealing information to new residents as long as they were willing to give him money.

Zhang Guofu knew this was the clue from the game, so he quickly added the other party and transferred some money to them.

This identity doesn't mean much money; after all, people who can afford to live in such low-priced apartments are definitely not high-income earners.

Zhang Guofu and several other players pooled together the money to transfer to the other party.

Sure enough, Zhang Guofu received a notification message from the other party late at night.

Upon seeing the message, Zhang Guofu breathed a sigh of relief and, with a beaming smile, announced to the other five players in the room, "I have good news for you all. The killer should have already identified his prey tonight. We've at least escaped a disaster tonight."

"Brother Zhang, how are you sure?" The fat man asked with a look of surprise.

Zhang Guofu immediately showed them the contents of his phone.

The group instantly showed expressions of joy. Regardless of whether the mission was completed or not, just surviving a day was something to be happy about.

"Let's go and investigate again tomorrow. Besides, there are six of us. Even if the killer comes, we don't need to be so afraid."

"Exactly, how could we lose when it's six against one?"

Because they were more relaxed, they spoke more boldly, as if they had regained their confidence.

“That makes sense,” Zhang Guofu nodded.

That's why he brought everyone together; maybe he can find a few more teammates to team up with tomorrow.

The more people there are, the less they need to be afraid.

Unfortunately, Zhang Guofu forgot that those who could trust him were basically novice players who had no props, no skills, and no courage.

Such unqualified individuals, let alone five, even ten or fifteen, would be of no use other than providing food for murderers.

Just as the six of them relaxed and were about to go to rest, there was a knock on their door.

The smiles that had not yet faded from the faces of the six people froze at this moment, and they looked in the direction of the door with fear.

A strange, distorted, and genderless voice came from outside the door: "If you don't open the door, I'll just come in myself."

Without waiting for their reply, the murderer raised his axe and began to chop.

With such a strong human scent, he couldn't believe there was no one else in the room!

Ahhh, he's going to eat, eat, eat! He's going to eat a ton of food!

The people in the room all looked at Zhang Guofu, their voices trembling.

"Brother Zhang, what should we do?"

There were no sobbing sounds around her, and Jiang Liyue slept soundly.

The serial killer never returned, and no one else dared to go out at night like her.

Therefore, even if there is a hole in the door, it is still safe.

Jiang Liyue got out of bed, quickly washed up, changed into new clothes, and then walked to her dilapidated door.

She thought for a moment, then took her phone out of her coat and opened a group chat.

【Apartment 444 Family】

It's probably still early, because the chat in the group is still stuck at around 11 p.m. last night.

At this time, all was quiet.

Without thinking, Jiang Liyue typed a line of text on the screen.

【1808—Xiao Jiang】: Excuse me, someone broke into my room late at night. Isn't your apartment management company responsible? @Administrator

Jiang Liyue has not yet received a reply.

In the private chat, Luo Si kept sending her messages.

[1202—Luo Si]: Miss Jiang, how did your door get damaged? Who damaged it and when?

[1202—Luo Si]: Are you alright now?

[1202—Luo Si]: Um, were you home last night? No, how was your home?

【1202—Luo Si】: Miss Jiang, how could you tag the administrator?!

Luo Si sent out a lot of messages in one go, all of which were about his doubts about how Jiang Liyue could still be alive after her door was damaged.

Clearly, he knew about the serial killer.

He might even be connected to the murderer because he acted as an intermediary and brought in so many residents.

Jiang Liyue ignored his long string of questions and only replied to the last one.

[1808—Xiao Jiang]: My room door was vandalized late at night. Isn't this a dereliction of duty by the apartment management? I asked the manager, and it seems reasonable, right?

Luo Si: ...Is this reasonable? No one has ever done this before.

The main problem is that the new residents of apartment 444 all assume the existence of the killer. Even if they survive an attack, they only think about how to hide next time.

No one would act like Jiang Liyue, truly considering herself a resident of Apartment 444, and actually daring to hold the apartment manager accountable.

For a moment, Luo Si was stunned. How could this not be a solution?

However, when Luo Si realized what was happening, he immediately shook his head in his mind. No, the key question is, can we find the administrator?

The key point is that contacting the administrator comes at a price!
