"...Is this a TV?"
Guo Guo was stunned.
Given the tiny size of Pinocchio's backpack, they initially thought it might be a discount card or a skill card. However, they didn't expect it to be a legitimate promotional item like a refrigerator, TV, or washing machine.
Soon, forensics confirmed the authenticity of the TV:
[This is a brand new LCD TV, at least on the surface. Of course, if the customer tries to return it due to some dissatisfaction - you will find that this is impossible]
After a brief silence, Tang Xinjue poked the TV screen with the toilet plunger, and a prompt appeared:
[Do you want to place this TV in the bedroom? If you do, it will be bound to the bedroom.]
Guo Guo tried the detector and the pendant, then shook his head: "I didn't feel any danger."
Zhang You found an identical TV in the mall: [Wang Jiji Brand LCD TV: Large HD screen with multiple channels. Buy early and profit from the increased value!]
——Anyway, at least it looks like a good thing now.
Out of curiosity, the four of them confirmed the connection. The next moment, the TV disappeared from the desk and appeared on the wall above the dormitory door.
Tang Xin Jue said, "Look at our phones."
I saw that there was an extra icon on the main interface of the [Dormitory Survival APP]. When I clicked on it, an interface like a remote control appeared, where I could adjust the channel, volume and switch.
Guo Guo muttered to himself, "I never thought that my wish of installing a TV in my dorm would come true in this game."
Just as they were about to turn on the TV, they were interrupted by a knock on the door from the balcony.
Liang Jing was standing outside the window with several girls from the next dormitory, smiling a little nervously.
"Excuse me, can we come in?"
As they stepped into dormitory 606, the four girls opened their eyes wide in surprise.
Liang Jing, who had already been there once, was fine. The one who had the biggest reaction was the girl who initially held a mop handle and was burned by the black gift box. According to Liang Jing, the girl's name was Xu Wei. Although she was very aggressive, she seemed the most energetic of the four people besides Liang Jing.
The remaining two girls had obviously haggard looks on their faces, and followed behind with gloomy eyes.
As soon as Xu Wei entered the room, he couldn't help but say, "Your dormitory looks so complete!"
The word "complete" came out of her mouth, and her sigh was very sincere.
Seeing that Tang Xinjue and the others were a little confused, Liang Jing smiled bitterly and explained, "It's hard to explain right away. If you see our dormitory, you'll understand."
…
Following them into the dormitory next door, the four people in 606 couldn't help but stop and look at each other when they saw the scene in front of them.
The structure of Liang Jing's dormitory is not much different from theirs. There are also four beds with a bed above and a desk below, and even the size is the same.
However, as far as the eye could see, a huge crack split from the middle of bed number 4 on the balcony, extending all the way to the dormitory door. The once snow-white walls had become mottled and tattered, barely patched up with panels, sheets, and clothes, but the solidified scarlet color could still be seen beneath the cover.
Liang Jing sighed: "This originated from the night when the game came..."
That day, Liang Jing and three others were all in the dormitory. They were panicking because of the suddenly locked doors and windows and the strange notification sound. Suddenly, the dormitory manager knocked on the door and said that he had brought the security guard over and asked them to open the door to check the situation.
"We didn't have time to question it and immediately opened the door. But who would have thought that when we opened the door, it wasn't the dorm manager outside, but a blood-red monster that looked like it had no human form."
The monster pounced on the person who opened the door. Fortunately, Liang Jing happened to be standing on the inside of the door. When she heard the scream, she pushed the door shut. However, the monster still squeezed in a little bit. Once inside the room, it turned into a pool of liquid and began to spread wildly.
"We tried everything, and we found that as soon as the notification sound came, it would shrink towards the door, and would only continue to expand after the notification sound ended."
So the four of them took advantage of the notification sound to shovel some of the red liquid to the balcony window. The red monster screamed and was eventually reduced to ashes in a huge explosion, but it also blew up two beds and a wall at the same time.
Liang Jing looked at a very silent roommate: "Xiao An's leg and my arm were also left with scars that night, and they have never healed."
Upon learning that Tang Xinjue and the others had encountered a similar situation, Liang Jing pondered, "At the time, I just thought we were unlucky. Now, it seems more like a test that all dormitories will go through... This dormitory survival game, has it dragged every dormitories in the country into this game?"
Two dormitories in different provinces and cities, with no connection at all, and whose members were completely strangers to each other, suddenly became neighbors. From a physical point of view, this is impossible.
"But if we are all in an alternate dimension at this moment, everything makes sense."
Liang Jing said seriously, "During the past few days trapped in the dormitory, we've tried every possible way to contact the outside world. We finally discovered that the only time the notification sound appears is when the phone and computer signals change slightly."
Could it be that the notification sound comes from the real world? Or perhaps from another, even more mysterious, outer space?
They had no way of confirming it, so they could only record this phenomenon temporarily.
After listening to Liang Jing's story, Tang Xinjue caught a question: "Didn't you take the exams these days?"
"take an exam?"
Liang Jing and the others looked at each other and asked in unison in surprise: "Have you already taken the exam?"
“…”
With the help of Liang Jing and others, the four members of 606 realized that they had only taken the [Dormitory Civility Code Test] once, and then never opened the test interface again, and had been recuperating ever since.
The two dormitories were both given a similar "civility code" test, except that Liang Jing's dorm was tasked with helping a girl named Xiaolu solve her problem: finding a beauty formula that suited her.
But they eventually discovered that the beauty formula Xiaolu desired required human blood, teeth, eyes, and internal organs! Faced with Xiaolu's daily demands, the group could only hide in their bed curtains and pretend to be dead each night, enduring Xiaolu's devastation in the dormitory. Fortunately, after seven days of hiding, just as they were dying, the exam announced that they had "been getting along amicably for a period of time and met the requirements of the code of civility," and they narrowly passed the test.
"That test left a huge psychological shadow on us. So until now, we are not ready to start the next exam."
Liang Jing shook her head. "But we also know that this won't work."
If you fail any exam within a week, the whole dormitory will be eliminated. Escape is not a permanent solution.
At this point, the four people in Dormitory 612 were feeling a bit down. However, Xu Wei quickly cheered up and said, "We originally thought we might never see anyone else again, but after seeing your dormitory, that thought has changed!"
A dormitory where all members have taken the exam and are still alive is undoubtedly a great encouragement to them.
Of course, the same is true for the four members of 606. Meeting people of the same status and being able to communicate with each other finally made them feel that they were not living on an isolated island, and it gave them a sense of hope.
Both parties wanted to continue chatting, but Tang Xinjue suddenly realized something and turned to look out the window.
Liang Jing and Zhang You turned their heads almost at the same time, their expressions changing: "The fog outside!"
At first glance, there seems to be no change, but if you look closely, you can feel that the white mist is pouring in from outside the fence at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it will soon fill the window again.
Guo Guo was shocked: "Oh shit! We haven't even returned to the dormitory yet!"
Tang Xinjue and his roommate exchanged a glance and made a quick decision: "Let's go!"
No one knew whether they could still open the French windows when the white fog flooded the balcony, and what would happen if they were forced to stay - they had to return to their dormitory as quickly as possible while the balcony was still there!
