Gu Huaiwei saw that Fang Zhao was looking down at the crumpled piece of paper again.
The note seemed to be something very valuable.
He looked at it for a while, then took a deep breath, walked to the locked wardrobe, knocked on the door gently, and said softly: "Bella, would you like to play hide and seek with us?"
The singing in the locked closet suddenly stopped.
Then, completely different from the soft and pleasant singing voice, the little girl's voice in the closet became extremely shrill, like nails scratching on a blackboard.
"Ka-ka-ka... Sure, but I want to be the one hiding."
The rules were to convince the little girl to play hide-and-seek, then find an opportunity to hide in the toy house and not be found before dawn.
The trial participant must be the one hiding, and let the little girl pretend to be a ghost to find people.
Fang Zhao frowned slightly and coaxed her in a child-like tone, "Bella, be good. First, you be the ghost. After you find us, we'll be the ghost, okay?"
"I won't! I want to be a human first... Kakaka... If you don't let me, I won't play hide-and-seek with you!
The clock is about to strike twelve, and dad will come out in a little while... click, click, click... Then dad will join our hide-and-seek game, hehe."
Fang Zhao glanced at the time and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
On the night of the fire, he had to hide before the librarian showed up.
Otherwise, he would die for breaking the rules.
The bell is approaching and time is running out. He must convince Bella as soon as possible.
However, no matter what he said, Bella ignored him and her shouting became louder and harsher.
Fang Zhao felt like his eardrums were about to be punctured.
"It's so noisy." Bai Meemie rubbed her ears.
Gu Huaiwei casually picked up a dusty miner doll from the attic. The doll seemed to be blinking just now. She picked it up and patted it, rubbed its eyeballs, pulled its limbs, and after studying it for a long time, the doll seemed to stop moving again.
She thought it was boring and put it back in its place.
Fang Zhao worked hard and talked for a long time, but the little girl didn't appreciate it.
Gu Huaiwei said slowly: "Do you want me to help you?"
"You... you have a solution?" Fang Zhao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, half believing and half doubting.
Gu Huaiwei discovered that the humans in this dimension would become helpless as long as they were in the copy they mentioned.
"How about this, I have two conditions. As long as you agree to them, I can help you overcome the difficulties you are facing." She raised two fingers and smiled.
Fang Zhao's heart was filled with alarm. He replied cautiously, "I need to hear your conditions first."
He would never sell his limbs.
Selling your limbs to the weird can certainly get weird help, but a disabled body will greatly reduce the probability of survival.
Don't go to this step unless it's absolutely necessary.
“The first condition is that I have some questions for you, and I hope you can answer them truthfully.
The second condition is that after you leave the library, you must visit my Oasis Sanatorium and stay there for a while until I find twelve guests."
"this……"
Fang Zhao can agree to the first condition.
But the second condition is equivalent to choosing to enter other copies.
He had some misunderstandings about the Oasis Sanatorium. In his impression, although the Oasis Sanatorium was currently a one-star difficulty dungeon, it would be upgraded and it was possible that it would become a five-star difficulty dungeon in the future.
He was afraid that he would never come back.
Gu Huaiwei simply wanted to attract customers.
Her truth, goodness and beauty should be left to her customers.
If Fang Zhao refused, she probably wouldn't have the heart to play hide-and-seek with him here. Instead, she would go downstairs and try to find someone else. She should be flexible and adaptable. She couldn't just hang herself on one tree.
Although they were in the attic on the sixth floor, the cries for help from the fire below were getting louder and louder.
The little girl locked in the closet became restless.
The wardrobe was shaking and making a creaking sound.
"It's getting late." Gu Huaiwei reminded in a cold tone.
Fang Zhao looked at the lock on the wardrobe that was about to fall off, his shrunken pupils moved in fear to Time, and finally fell on Gu Huaiwei who looked relaxed.
He has three types of clearance rules in his hands.
The best S-level clearance rule is to complete the investigative reporter mission, find out the truth about the mining disaster and chemical plant explosion, and eliminate the pollution.
The next level A-level clearance rule is to obtain the approval of the library director, lurk in the library to find the truth about the mining disaster, and announce the truth in the name of the library director.
The worst B-level clearance rule is to obtain some clues about the mining disaster and chemical plant explosion, hide the clues, survive in the library for ten days, and wait for rescue from the outside world.
Fang Zhao directly classified Gu Huaiwei as an NPC in the B-level clearance rules.
Although he has not yet obtained any clues about the mine and chemical plant explosion accidents, Gu Huaiwei's identity is not very compatible with this outside rescue.
However, he could also reluctantly explain that Gu Huaiwei had a hidden identity, and the Oasis Sanatorium she mentioned had the word "treatment" in it, so it could be reluctantly attributed to the "external rescue" mentioned in the rules.
Time passes by every second.
It’s better to die later than now.
Fang Zhao was at his wit's end. He gritted his teeth and agreed, "Okay, as long as you're willing to help me, I'll agree to your two conditions."
Gu Huaiwei raised her right hand, and when she tilted her head, her long black hair slid from her shoulders to her chest: "Then let's high-five and swear an oath?"
Fang Zhao nervously wiped the sweat from his palms.
The two men clapped their hands, making a crisp sound.
Fang Zhao stepped aside and watched silently.
He didn't know how Gu Huaiwei would help him.
After the oath was established, Gu Huaiwei turned her gaze to the violently shaking wardrobe.
"Little Bella, let me be the ghost for the first one."
The wardrobe stopped shaking and the little girl's voice became less aggressive.
"Okay." Bella agreed, but the voice was a little stuck, like a malfunctioning tape. "You have to close your eyes and count from one to one hundred... click, click, click... from one... click, click, click... one hundred..."
The lock on the wardrobe fell off and hit the floor, making a hole in the wooden floor.
The cabinet door slowly opened a crack.
