Each building in Tianshui Lanwan has two households on one floor, and the 23rd floor is the only floor with only one household. It is sold when it is still an unfinished building. As for whether it is used to grow vegetables or flowers, for students to attend classes, or as a playground for pets after purchase, it is all up to the residents' wishes.
As for the previous floor where Shi Yu lived, it was once bought by a rich second-generation and renovated into an escape room.
...of the supernatural kind.
Let's not talk about what the second-generation rich had in mind to build an escape room in a high-end residential area. It's not important. The point is that after the decoration was completed, they began to post pictures of white-clothed female ghosts and songs about red-clothed evil spirits every day, and even told everyone about the blood and body parts on the ground. Later, because the business was not good, the second-generation rich packed up and wanted to sell the house before leaving. Unexpectedly, someone really took over as soon as he put it up.
Shi Yu was the one who took over.
The original words of the errand boy were: "There are only three floors left on the roof of the 26 buildings in Tianshui Lanwan. Two of them are second-hand houses, one is a vegetable garden and the other is an escape room. The other is new and has never been sold. The disadvantage is that this floor is still rough and must be renovated before people can live in it. Which one do you want, boss?"
Shi Yu was still in the cemetery at the time, and it was difficult for him to find a signal to answer the phone, so he said the latter without thinking too much.
The errand boy nodded and said, "I think so too. To live in a vegetable garden, people have to carry soil, but a secret room can be lived in by just putting up wallpaper."
Of course, when they looked back after making the decision, they realized they were wrong.
That's totally wrong.
I don’t know how much effort the rich second generation put into the decoration. They even chiseled the concrete wall and replaced it with very old wooden boards, and there was a big hole in the window paper.
…
Xiao Guangtuan was confused: "Then what?"
Shi Yu unlocked the door with his fingerprint: "Then people outside started to spread rumors that this place was haunted."
Xiao Guangtuan thought for a long time about the connection between the above content and the haunting, and was shocked after a while: "They didn't mistake the renovation sounds here for ghost cries, did they?"
Although the guess is outrageous, the answer is correct.
In fact, it was not just the sound, but also the coffins, bandages, daggers, mummies and various bloody objects that were carried out one after another. At first, everyone just listened to it as a joke, but later it was passed on for a long time and inevitably became distorted.
At that time, the residents were actually curious about who was going to buy this haunted house. Unfortunately, Shi Yu was not the type of person who would actively announce her address to her neighbors. It was only after she had lived there for a week that a socially compulsive aunt in the elevator asked her for her specific address.
It’s not that no one wanted to get close to him with the idea of building a good relationship with him, but unfortunately the 22nd floor, which was right below the 23rd floor of the building, was also uninhabited, so it would be too deliberate to jump over two floors and run up. Of course, the most important thing was that the other party had no intention of dealing with neighbors at all.
We are all adults, and no one would be willing to waste their enthusiasm and initiative on someone who will not get anything in return.
Shi Yu became an isolated island in the community.
Ignorance leads to isolation, and then to rejection. It's not a blatant squeeze, after all, there is no grudge between them, and they are not at the age of "school violence". At most, they just avoid each other involuntarily when they meet, and warn their children at home to "stay away from him" after returning home.
He didn't know when the rumor started, but by the time he heard about it, the version had already turned into a madman, a haunted house, a possessed person, a mental patient, and a doomed star.
The last one was because no one had ever seen his parents or friends come over, even for a glance.
…
When Shi Yu was about to close the door, a shout came over at this moment: "Wait——"
He pushed the door open a little, and saw the door of the stairwell closed. Someone ran up with a porcelain bowl in his hand, looking surprised: "So you are my upstairs?"
upstairs?
Shi Yu thought for a few seconds and remembered that during the days when the "skylight" case happened, he had heard the sound of renovation work coming from downstairs more than once.
But it’s been less than a month and people can already live here?
"Although it was already fully furnished when I bought it, I thought I might have to live here for the rest of my life, so I asked someone to come and renovate it. I'm afraid I've bothered you during this period." The other party said in a gentle tone, "These are dumplings fried by my mother. If you don't mind, please accept them. If they are delicious, you can come to my house next time."
Before Shi Yu could say anything, the little light ball behind him who was always watching him came forward and took the lunch box: "Thank you, big brother."
The other party blinked: "Is this your brother?"
Xiao Guangtuan smiled sweetly: "Yeah."
The door was closed.
Xiao Guangtuan put the bowl on the table: "My Lord."
Shi Yu took a spoon from the kitchen and gave it to Little Radish: "Don't use your hands. Remember to wash the dishes after eating."
Xiao Guangtuan said, "Sir, don't you want to eat?"
Shi Yu shook his head.
Xiao Guangtuan said "oh", stuffed a dumpling into his mouth, and started shaking his head while eating.
After washing the dishes, he went downstairs holding the porcelain bowl, which was as big as his face, and returned it to the owner. He also talked about whether the dumplings tasted good and how they were made, whether the pattern on the bowl was beautiful and where he bought it, some tips on how to get rid of the paint smell after house decoration, and how to pay attention to physical health.
The family who had just moved in had not heard of those messy rumors, and the child was born with a round head, lively, cute and sweet-mouthed. The middle-aged woman who was frying dumplings was so praised by him that she almost adopted Xiao Guangtuan as her godson on the spot, which made the young man, the real son, doubt whether it was right or wrong for him to deliver the dumplings.
Near noon, Xiao Guangtuan declined the offer to stay for dinner and blinked his eyes: "I want to go upstairs to accompany my brother."
The middle-aged woman, Ms. Qi Junsheng, was reluctant to leave: "Zhihe, why don't you go and call your brother down to join us?"
Xiao Guangtuan shook his head: "Brother is not used to strangers, and it is not convenient for him..."
He paused and said, "Anyway, I won't disturb you guys from eating. Bye."
After saying that, he ran back with his short legs.
Ms. Qi Junsheng turned to her son and asked, "Do you know what happened to his brother Zhihe?"
Young man: "I've been running around for renovations these days, how would I know this?"
Ms. Qi Junsheng threw an apple at him and said, "Don't you know that you won't go and ask? I raised you to this age just to use you at times like this, right?"
“…”
Two hours later, Ms. Qi Junsheng listened to the rumors her son had heard at the dinner table. The child who had just graduated was left without a father or a mother and had to raise his younger brother alone. He had finally moved away from his original residence to start a new life, but he was still being gossiped about... Her motherly love instantly overflowed.
Little Guangtuan hid his merits and fame, and skipped back upstairs: "My lord."
Shi Yu heard the noise outside in the study, came out to open the door for him, and pressed the lock a few times: "Put out your hand."
The little ball of light raised its chubby short hands.
Shi Yu placed his right index finger on the scanning position, and with a "beep" the new fingerprint was set.
Today’s sensors are sensitive enough that there is basically no problem with minors’ fingerprints not being fixed or difficult to identify, and there is no need to worry about them becoming ineffective over time: “You can open the door yourself in the future.”
"oh."
Xiao Guangtuan felt a little regretful that he couldn't ask an adult to open the door for him in the future, but this emotion soon dissipated. Since he could now open the door of an adult's house by himself, did it mean that he was one step closer to getting an adult to agree to be his guardian?
He followed into the room and asked, "Sir, do you wear glasses?"
Shi Yu: “It’s blue light proof.”
When Xiao Guangtuan was monitoring his human players, he knew that there were glasses in the mortal world, but he didn't know there were so many types. He was thinking about learning more in the future, but at this moment, the person in front of him suddenly stopped.
The next second, darkness enveloped the entire vision.
Xiao Guangtuan was stunned: "Isn't it not seven days yet?"
Shi Yu stood in the player space: "Today is the seventh day."
The cat removed the helmet on the seventh day after surgery.
There was no one else in the player space, so Xiao Guangtuan didn't bother to change back to the administrator's floating ball shape this time, and directly opened his backpack for him.
Then, his face was covered with the light of the new item he had drawn after the previous game.
[Item name: Sprouted potatoes]
[Introduction to props: Contains toxins, consume with caution, it is recommended to throw it away]
[Item Rating: F]
Little Light Group: “…”
Shi Yu: “…”
Xiao Guangtuan swallowed his saliva and turned back carefully: "Sir, I am not..."
Before he could even finish the words "deliberately", he was attracted by the image on the screen: "What is this?"
Shi Yu left the backpack interface and clicked on the main weapon column.
The last time he checked was when the first game ended, and at that time, every introduction box was filled with question marks. But this time, when he opened it, the original black question box was already filled with text.
[Weapon Name: Zi Bu Yu]
[Weapon type: Offensive]
[Weapon Introduction: A main-type item offered as tribute by a powerful weapon refiner in the divine world, hidden in the treasury of the divine temple. "It cannot fall to the ground when it is inflamed, and it will not be encountered by anyone if it falls to the ground. It will be strong or weak when it encounters strong or weak enemies. This function will only work once and can never be changed."]
【Attack: SSS level】
[Defense: F-level]
[Additional: None]
[Grade: B]
[Level: B]
Xiao Guangtuan understood the meaning of that introduction: "So the host-like machine has really been developed?"
To make an analogy here, the weapon refiners in the divine world are equivalent to the physicists in the human world. Some specialize in theory, while others engage in hands-on research and development.
As the name suggests, the power of a quasi-type item changes with the power of the user. The first time the user uses it, the power they exert will be fixed to that range and cannot be changed.
The advantages are obvious. As long as you use it with all your strength the first time, you can just copy and paste it afterwards without expecting an uncertain potential explosion. As for the disadvantages...
Xiao Guangtuan was shocked. "Why is the defense level F? The overall rating is only B?"
The Lord God's weapon, if all the data are the same as the attack power, it's fine, but what about the F level? ?
Shi Yu didn't explain much: "The first time I used it, the situation was special."
Xiao Guangtuan: "Then can it still grow in the future?"
“Isn’t it written above?”
——The machine only works once and can never be changed.
The little carrot head's face was wrinkled into the folds on the bun.
The countdown is over.
Shi Yu came out of the darkness and into the pure white space again. He looked around and found that there were only twelve people present this time, including him.
He had just finished counting the number of people when a clear voice rang out from the side: "Damn!"
The sound was not loud and did not attract anyone's attention, but it lingered in this small corner.
He Weiyou clasped his hands together and said, "Can you please lose your memory first and forget all the nonsense I said to you after the last game?"
Shi Yu didn't react for a moment: "What did you say?"
He Weiyou blurted out: "Those words teasing you."
“…”
