The third copy
After hesitating for only ten seconds, Du Ming decided to trust his own judgment. Besides, they had just entered the dungeon; the game couldn't force players into a desperate situation right from the start.
After making a quick decision, Du Ming ran following the arrow.
As he begins to run, the narration shifts.
You sense the presence behind you and decide to run home.
It turned out that this arrow was the direction home. Du Ming felt more confident and ran faster.
And in a place he couldn't see, a dark shadow saw Du Ming running and quickly followed him.
The black figure had two bunny ears on his head, which made him look very cute. Of course, it would be better if his expression was not so fierce.
It smells so good...it smells so good...I really want to take a bite...
You seem to sense the presence behind you getting closer and closer, and the fear in your heart makes you uneasy, so you have to speed up your pace.
[Finally! You've reached your neighborhood!]
Finally, after jogging for ten minutes, Du Ming saw his residence.
【For the first time, you feel the security of home.】
You sprinted around the corner, and the emergency lights in the corridor came on. You glanced back in the light.
After turning around the ivy-covered wall, Du Ming glanced back. With the help of the emergency light that had lit up as he walked, Du Ming successfully saw the face of the person behind him.
He was a delivery man wearing a uniform and a helmet with a cute bunny head on it.
But at this moment, his expression was dull, and saliva kept flowing down the corners of his mouth. He looked like he was completely controlled by his appetite.
But when he was about to enter the corridor, he seemed to sense something, his expression suddenly became clear, and he looked upstairs with fear.
upstairs?
Du Ming followed the other person's gaze and saw that it was the resident living on the third floor.
In just a moment, the delivery man ran away, and his speed was several times faster than when he was chasing Du Ming, as if there was a hungry tiger behind him.
[The crisis is over, you are very tired tonight, and you are ready to go back to your room to rest.]
When Du Ming heard the automatic narration, his expression was obscure, but he still gave up the idea of visiting the residents on the third floor at night.
Firstly, it seems that the plot does not allow it, and secondly, this may be the system reminding him that it is not safe at night.
No matter what, it was unwise to act at night. Without knowing more, Du Ming was not ready to commit suicide.
Let’s take a rest first.
*
【Today is Saturday, a beautiful day with a nice breeze and sunshine. 】
Du Ming just opened his eyes and climbed out of bed, and the first sentence he heard was this. He suddenly felt that this Saturday was not very wonderful.
But the daytime did seem safer than the night. At least as soon as he woke up, he could hear the noisy voices outside: people taking their children to cram school, elderly people going downstairs for morning exercises, and the barking of dogs.
Du Ming briefly looked through the bedside table and found a wallet inside. He opened it and saw that there was quite a bit of money.
Just when he was about to be happy, he heard...
This is all your savings.
Du Ming: “…” He didn’t know what to say for a moment.
After washing his face and brushing his teeth, Du Ming took all his belongings and went out to look for food. He met many people along the way, but they all glanced at him briefly and said nothing.
Du Ming paid attention and found that he didn't hear any plot prompts.
Obviously, these are just tools.
He suddenly stopped caring and turned around and strode towards the breakfast shop.
The breakfast shop is small, with only two or three tables left except for the semi-open kitchen. On a normal day, it should be quite empty at this time, but unfortunately, it is Saturday and there are still quite a few people coming for breakfast.
Du Ming looked around and finally found a seat and shared a table with others. There were two young men having breakfast at the same table.
One had more freckles on his face, the other had fewer but had a few pimples on his forehead. Both were tall and thin, but they had big appetites. They ordered two bowls of noodles, three baskets of steamed dumplings, and four large meat buns.
The one with the most freckles chewed a bun and spoke incoherently, "Hey, did you hear that someone died on the street?"
"Ah?" The other person obviously hadn't heard it and looked surprised.
A look of obvious fear flashed across the freckled man's face. "I heard his brain was eaten. I guess it was done by a monster."
"Another monster!" The acne-prone man frowned, a trace of anxiety flashing across his face. "This is the nth time it's happened recently. Why haven't we caught it yet..."
【You heard rumors about the 'monster'. 】
Du Ming knew this was the main event and pricked up his ears. However, the two of them seemed to be wary of something, and the conversation came to an abrupt end.
Du Ming thought about it and asked about the location of the accident. He found that it was not far from the place where he had just appeared yesterday.
He really didn't believe that it was not done by the same person.
With this in mind, Du Ming went to the scene after breakfast. There were many people in special uniforms investigating the scene, all holding detection instruments.
Du Ming didn't get very close, but he still saw the fragments in the transparent bag with his sharp eyes.
A yellow/colored fragment with dirt stains, the same color as the rabbit hat he saw last night.
really...
【You discovered the monster's secret. 】
Du Ming: “…” This plot is really enough, it’s too lagging.
After complaining a few words in his mind, Du Ming turned and left when he saw that no new plot points were happening. At this moment, he did not notice that at the other side of the street, someone was staring at his back with an intoxicated look in his eyes.
When he returned to the old and dilapidated house, the whole area had become quiet. Without any instructions, Du Ming was somewhat at a loss.
After thinking about it, the only possible suspicion was his strange job. He didn't believe there was anything fishy going on with his phone containing only information about colleagues and the company.
Du Ming flipped through his phone, ready to sound out the rumors, and then he picked up his phone to message and call his colleagues one by one, but either they were blocked or the messages fell on deaf ears.
Du Ming: “…”
His expression was full of confusion.
No, are these colleagues so arrogant? Or is it that he has a bad relationship with them?
Forget it, let’s find another way.
After staying at home bored for two days, Du Ming summarized some simple rules of this copy.
First, when the narration appears, you must follow the plot, but the rest of the time is up to you. Second, some characters won't appear until the plot point. Finally, his character setting in the dungeon is a pure white beauty, but in reality...
Du Ming, who is 1.85 meters tall, is holding the ID card and looking for a new job.
The owner of the convenience store was a man in his forties wearing glasses. He looked at the girl with long black hair and fair skin on her ID card, then looked at the tall and strong man in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Muttering, "This damn game is getting more and more exaggerated."
But... he could refuse it. The boss said with a deadpan face, "Sorry, you didn't get the job."
"Why?"
"Oh, because delicate beauties can't do the physical work we do." When the convenience store owner mentioned the word "delicate beauty", he was obviously lacking in confidence.
"You called me a delicate beauty?"
Du Ming was almost dying of laughter. He walked over and picked up the convenience store owner. "I'm not a delicate queen. I have plenty of strength and means."
The convenience store owner, who was treated like a chicken, agreed to Du Ming's employment after fully experiencing the strength and means, and satisfied the other party with the achievement of starting work on the same day.
Just before putting on his work clothes, Du Ming sent a resignation text message to his "old" boss.
A background boss who has not yet reached the plot point and cannot appear: "???" No, does this count as violating the rules of the game?
After taking a look, it seems that there is no violation.
No, is this how the game is played?
Du Ming, who successfully changed his job, was enthusiastically moving goods out of the warehouse and placing them in designated locations one by one according to the instructions of the convenience store owner.
After working for over an hour, Du Ming didn't hear any warning sounds. His lips curled up. It seemed this dungeon wasn't without bugs after all.
