Undercover in a World of Uncanny Rules

The first time Bai Tao woke up after her death, she found herself thrown into a world of uncanny rules by the world's consciousness, becoming an ordinary human.

Her neighbor is a talking ...

Chapter 054 Every Family Goes to the Supermarket (XI)

Bai Tao and the other two escaped from the silent corridor.

The children's playground was in chaos and the entire fifth floor was shaking.

Zhao Song lowered his voice and asked quietly, "You did it? The copy is going to be destroyed?"

The voice was filled with excitement. Would she meet the national team? Oh, was her performance good enough? Was she good enough as a support?

Bai Tao: "No time for nonsense! Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up."

She has eaten up most of the fifth floor, and it will probably collapse soon.

Bai Tao led the two of them to the nearest safe passage.

There was a zillah sound; it was the broadcast.

"Ding ding ding ding, ding dong——" After a series of jams, the broadcast finally came through smoothly.

"There is a special situation on the fifth floor of the supermarket. It will be forcibly blocked in five minutes. All personnel on the fifth floor are requested to move to other floors in time."

"Repeat that again..."

The broadcast was intermittent and the signal was very poor, but it was very strong and the content was repeated three times.

Almost at the moment the broadcast sounded, Bai Tao and the other two entered the emergency staircase one after another.

Security elevators can move between any floors, while escalators and stairs can only go up and down one floor.

Without hesitation, Bai Tao chose to go upstairs.

[Only the sixth-floor cinema is open at night]

Based on this rule alone, Bai Tao knew that even if the 5th floor collapsed, the 6th floor would not be affected.

She decided to go to the cinema now.

Hao Fang always follows Bai Tao, two against one, Zhao Song has no objection.

The 6th floor is quiet and peaceful, completely different from the 5th floor.

The theater has very little room for activities, a service counter, an automatic popcorn machine, movie posters, a ticket gate, and the rules written at the entrance.

《Notes on watching movies at the Six-story Cinema》

1. Movies in the cinema are free for a limited time. After watching the movie, you can exchange your ticket for a voucher at the exit.

2. Customers who enter the cinema can only leave the sixth floor after watching at least one movie in its entirety.

3. Collect the movie ticket at the service desk and go to the correct theater to watch the movie. Please note: there is no Hall 3 in the cinema! If the movie ticket you received is for Hall 3, please go to the service desk immediately to exchange the movie ticket. The staff at the service desk do not need to leave work. If you see that there is no one behind the service desk, then you are mistaken.

4.Ticket checking time is from 15 minutes before the movie starts to 30 minutes after the movie starts.

5. The ticket collector at the cinema is wearing a black vest. When he extends his hand, please hand the movie ticket to him. Note: please do not talk to the ticket collector. If you hear the ticket collector talking, do not respond, leave the ticket gate, and collect the movie ticket for the next show in the theater at the service desk.

6. After entering the theater, please find your seat within 1 minute. The theater is full and there are no empty seats. Please do not sit in the wrong seat. When the movie starts, please do not make loud noises.

7. Before the movie ends, if the lights in the theater come on, don't hesitate, escape immediately!

8. When the lights in the theater are turned off, the audience cannot leave their seats from half an hour after the movie starts to the end of the movie, and the audience cannot stay in their seats after half an hour after the movie ends. After leaving the theater, do not recall the content of the movie.

9. There is a lost and found office at the cinema service counter. If you lose something, you can go there to look for it.

There is a midnight cinema on the 6th floor, which is only open at 12 am and closes at 6 am. There are no ticket inspectors and movie tickets in the midnight cinema. You can enter any theater except Theater No. 3 to watch movies at any time.

11. The bathroom in the viewing area is a safe area, but do not stay there for too long.

12. The cinema welcomes customers who like to watch movies. If you watch the whole movie, you will receive a beautiful gift provided by ▆▆▆▆.

There are twelve rules in total.

Most of the rules are related to movies, and only the ninth rule out of the twelve rules has nothing to do with movies at all.

The second rule states that customers must watch a movie, but Bai Tao is not a customer, so she does not have to abide by this rule.

Among the twelve rules, Bai Tao cares most about the ninth one, which is from 12 am to 6 am. Just looking at the time period, the sense of crisis is overwhelming. This is the most dangerous time period in Dream City!

Most of the rules are useless without watching the movie, but Bai Tao still memorized all the rules word for word.

If she wanted to find the core, she had to go into the viewing area to take a look.

Zhao Song squatted on the side and muttered to himself: "Ninth Rule... Tenth Rule... Ah, my head is going to explode. There are too many rules to remember in this dungeon."

After reading the "Six-Degree Cinema Movie Watching Guide" two or three more times, I barely remembered the general rules.

When I looked up, I saw two advanced players already observing the surroundings.

Wow, she is the one holding us back.

There were countless movie posters in the theater, but upon closer inspection, there were actually only six movies being promoted, and each movie lasted about two hours.

"Snowy Night", "Soul", "The Capibara Family", "Fly!", "Clown", and "The Castle Adventure" are romance, thriller, cartoon, action, comedy, and adventure films respectively.

Six films were produced by one company - Daming Entertainment, one of the three major companies in Dream City.

Bai Tao never thought that in the copy from Jiajia to Supermarket, she could see the shadow of another copy. Bai Tao suspected that the provider of the coded gift in the twelfth rule was Daming Entertainment.

The two companies are deeply entangled!

Silently raising the importance of the movie to the highest level.

Today's limited free movie is the thriller "Soul". Among the six types of movies, thrillers look the most dangerous. This is a movie aimed at players.

However, in order to understand the process, Bai Tao went to the service desk.

The green vest salesperson stood up and greeted him: "Hello, are you here to pick up movie tickets? Or to buy movie tickets?"

"I want to check the movie schedule."

The green vest salesperson mechanically repeated what he had said before: "Hello, do you want to pick up movie tickets? Or do you want to buy movie tickets?"

The meaning is very clear: without the ticket, there is no room for negotiation.

Bai Tao narrowed her eyes and said, "Colleague, can you give me a favor?"

Wearing a green vest meticulously and with the logo of Dameng Entertainment hanging on her chest puffed out, she said: "Rules are rules." The two of them may not necessarily be colleagues.

Once the rules are involved, the employees will become brave, and Bai Tao will change his approach.

"Buy a ticket."

After paying the money, you will get the movie schedule.

The frequency of movie screenings in the theaters is every three hours. Bai Tao only saw 7 theaters, excluding Theater No. 3, there were only 6 theaters, each with 72 seats.

Even if players all choose to watch free movies, the theater has sufficient movie tickets. The fact that customers are not blocked on movie tickets, which are the easiest to tamper with, can only mean one thing - the activity of watching movies itself is very dangerous.

The supermarket is confident that it will not do anything extra and will expose the players by just watching the movie.

This is not good.

Bai Tao chose the movie "Snowy Night Love", which was played an hour later, during which time she could explore the areas outside the viewing area.

Just as I was about to choose my seat, the man in green vest handed me the movie ticket.

"Sir, we can't choose seats in our theater."

Hao Fang and Bai Tao bought tickets for the same show, but they sat at opposite ends of the street, Bai Tao in the last row and Hao Fang in the middle of the first row, closest to the screen.

Bai Tao finally enjoyed the privilege of a green vest. The farther away from the screen, the safer she was. However, she encountered Rule 7, and her position was a bit far from the gate.

Zhao Songgang took out the coupon.

The green vest shook his head: "Sorry, sir, the tickets for the next show "Snowy Night Love" are sold out."

A loser, targeting her!

Zhao Song was indignant, but the man in the green vest had a dead face and there was no sign of lying, so there was no place to find fault.

Grab the coupon and be prepared to come back later.

Bai Tao pulled her back and turned around to make a deal with the customer in line behind her.

The customers collected the money and started buying tickets.

"I want to buy a ticket for the next screening of 'Snowy Night'."

Green vest: "Okay, sir, here's your ticket, please."

Without Bai Tao's teaching, Zhao Song would have gone to cause trouble for the Green Vests on his own.

She stood on tiptoe and banged the table.

"You said there were no tickets, but why did he buy one?"

He stared at the man in the green vest with wide eyes. His dead face was a little scary, but he couldn't lose in momentum.

"Miss, I always follow the rules and regulations. Three people in a row cannot buy the same movie ticket. This is our rule."

The man in green vest still had a deadpan look on his face and without waiting for Zhao Song to say anything further, he directly slapped out the rules and regulations.

[If three consecutive customers buy tickets for the same movie, please tell the third customer that the ticket is sold out.]

The words were written clearly in black and white. I touched the paper and found it was the same as regular paper.

The green vests are not deceiving.

Bai Tao began to be interested in the number three. The cinema did not have a hall number three, three consecutive customers could not buy tickets for the same show, and the interval between movies in the cinema was exactly three hours...

Other points that are barely related to the number three are that the twelve rules in "Things to Know About Watching Movies in the Six-Story Cinema" are multiples of three, and the six movies broadcast today are also multiples of three.

Another point is that there are three main characters on the movie posters!

The number three has special significance for cinemas.

On the other side, Zhao Song was entangled with the green vest.

"I am the fifth customer now. Can you give me the movie ticket?"

"Not at this time, please get back in line, miss."

There was an oil bottle hanging from the corner of Zhao Song's mouth.

But I still got tickets for the same show.

The area outside the cinema's viewing area was ordinary. There was no danger and no strange people.

Many people came and went, most of them came up from the fifth floor and then took the elevator down.

There is currently only one safe way to leave the 6th floor - by elevator.

As time passed and it got closer to evening, there were more and more customers in the cinema.

Although it was not crowded, there were people sitting in every chair, and many people were sitting on the ground.

Before ticket checking, the elevator opened and another large group of people came in.

"Hall 1, 'Snowy Night Passion' begins ticket checking."

The ticket inspector in a black vest extended his hand to Bai Tao. His attitude did not change because Bai Tao was wearing a green vest. On the contrary, he looked at Bai Tao twice before returning the ticket to Bai Tao.

This black vest is more powerful than the black vest Bai Tao encountered on the first floor, and his aura is more obvious.

Thanks to the snacks delivered from the fifth floor, they completely concealed the strange aura on Bai Tao.

Bai Tao is in the first seat in the last row. The rules say [The theater is full, there are no empty seats]

But until the movie started, only 15 of the 72 seats were occupied.

There are no wrong rules on the rule paper, and Bai Tao has a bad feeling.
