Jiang Ran's soul swapped with his parallel world self, and he arrived in a strange world of rules. Amidst rules that are hard to distinguish between true and false, and a succession of ill-inte...
If it weren't for the note reminding them, probably no one would have thought there was a hidden compartment under the floor in the corner of the hall!
There were two things in the hidden compartment: a notebook and a scroll.
The scroll was a product of Jiang Ran's talent, and this notebook must have been recorded by the person who left the note!
Jiang Ran didn't immediately open the notebook to read it. Instead, he searched the other three corners of the hall first. After finding nothing useful, he returned to his room.
Opening the notebook, one finds the owner's experiences at the inn written in crooked handwriting.
Damn it! How did an inn end up in this deep mountain forest? Oh well, compared to that white mist, this inn doesn't seem so scary. Besides, I didn't really have a choice.
[Damn it! Why are the staff here so strange? I can't trust them, but I have to ask them for food.]
I encountered a staff member dressed in black who was surprisingly nice, unlike the other idiots. He even kindly gave me some grilled meat.
Something's not right. Why are these staff members looking at me so strangely? Ugh, I'm so itchy!
Beware of the staff! They might... kill you!
The handwriting became increasingly illegible towards the end of the notes, especially the last sentence, which was barely legible!
The last page of this notebook also contains a spider leg.
Jiang Ran's practiced movements made it impossible for the viewers in the live stream to see what was written in his notes, leaving them anxious for him!
"What exactly does it say? I really want to know! Brother Jiang, can we take a look?"
"Are you an idiot? If you can see it, then who can't?"
Staff members in black?
Based on what's recorded in the notes, they can indeed call for staff, and the owner of the notes has clearly done so.
All the staff Jiang Ran saw were dressed in beige ancient costumes. There were probably two types of staff, and another type was staff dressed in black!
No, maybe they weren't even staff members!
With a scroll in hand, Jiang Ran had one more chance to verify the rules. He still decided to keep it for now and use it for something more useful!
Meanwhile, Wips had finished looking at the list on the bedside table and was analyzing the 16 rules when a crow flew in through the window!
Even though the rules stated that crows wouldn't harm them, Wips still didn't think it was a good omen.
"Go! Go! Go!"
Wips waved to shoo the crow away, but the crow cawed twice and hopped left and right on the windowsill, refusing to leave.
"What bad luck!"
Wips carefully put the list in his pocket. Since he couldn't get any useful information by staying in the room, he decided to go out for a walk!
After Weps left, the crow hopped over to the empty bottle and licked the remaining liquor from the rim.
"Look, look! The live stream from India is back online!"
The observer from India had given up hope and was playing with his pet lizard when the screen, which had gone black, suddenly came back on, much to his surprise and delight!
"I knew it! Although Aifus only has B-level talent, his intelligence far surpasses that of others!"
Aifus was the first observer whose live stream went black and then returned to normal, so after receiving the news, almost all the national observers whose screens went black immediately switched to their live streams!
Where am I?
In the video, Aifus is lying on the floor scratching his head. Looking around him, he has actually entered the interior of a room!
"As expected of Aifus, he actually arrived at the inn without our knowledge and even found a room. It looks like we'll have to reward him handsomely when he gets back!"
"Wait a minute, is this really his room?"
The live stream clearly showed that the sheet was missing from the bedside table in Aifus's room, and there was also an empty bottle of liquor.
"Isn't this Weps' room?"
Why was Aifors in Weps's room?
Ivers walked through the jungle for only a few minutes before the screen went black. He reappeared in Wips' room. What happened to him during that time?
Just then, the door was pushed open by someone.
Aifus instinctively turned his head to look, and standing at the door was not Weps, but a staff member!
"Sir, this isn't your room, is it?"
"Bullshit! This is my room!"
Ivers noticed the staff member's hostile gaze, so he immediately insisted that this was his room!
"Really? Then please show me the house number."
"I...I lost it! Can you help me get a replacement?"
"Lost it?"
As the staff approached step by step, Aifus grew increasingly panicked and blurted out, "If you dare lay a hand on me, I'll report you!"
"Report? Go ahead, but from the moment you lost your nameplate, you are no longer a guest of the inn. We will deal with anyone who is not qualified to stay."
"I kill you!"
Aifus grabbed a chair from the side and used it as a weapon, while the staff member remained expressionless.
He gripped the chair with one hand, and the next moment he opened his blood-red maw and bit off Aifus's neck!
This is a world of ghost stories, how dare you think you can defeat the supernatural with a chair?
[The Indian ghost storyteller Aifus has died. The death toll in this ghost story world is now 1.]
The observer from India was just celebrating when his own ghost storyteller hit the jackpot. Nobody's luck is that good.
They didn't even give us a single chance to prompt them!
However, in that situation, Aifus had already violated the rule against entering other rooms from the moment he appeared, and no amount of prompting would help.
Observers from other countries swallowed hard. They suddenly felt that the live stream didn't need to be restored so quickly; let it remain dark for a while longer.
Wips went down to the lobby, and at that moment the inn door was opened again. The crazy Hanamura Uchiko, laughing foolishly, staggered into the inn!
Upon seeing Weps, he immediately pounced on him and grabbed his shoulders: "Hey—hahaha! You dare to eat shit? I dare!"
"roll!"
Wips kicked him far away and patted his shoulder dismissively.
The observer from the Sakura Kingdom couldn't care less about anything else at this moment and hurriedly used the reminder opportunity to remind Hanamura Uchiko to get some white wine!
The notification sound briefly brought Hanamura Kou back to his senses. While wondering why his chest hurt so much, he quickly grabbed a bottle of baijiu from the counter!
Just as he twisted open the bottle cap to drink, Wips suddenly rushed over, snatched the bottle from his hand, and smashed it on his head!
"You're drinking my ass!"
