Chapter 73 Nightmare Community
Bai Jin looked at the young man in front of him with red eyes and pleading in his eyes. He sighed and stopped talking about money. Instead, he waved towards the corridor.
Xu Xiaohua moved out reluctantly, accelerated the moment she passed Bai Jin, and rushed towards Xu Zhiyan.
So scary!
Why did her dad leave her here with this horrible guy! She would rather sleep in a takeout box than stay here!
Xu Xiaohua felt bitter, but she didn't dare to say it.
Xu Zhiyan opened his mouth, but finally remembered that he was still a player and had to be more reserved.
He adjusted his mentality, caught Xu Xiaohua who was rushing towards him, and touched the little tuft of hair on his adopted daughter's head.
Forget it, the person is already here anyway.
It’s never too late to make this money!
Bai Jin looked at the father and daughter, who looked like pitiful creatures who had been bullied. After a brief reflection, he realized that he had done nothing...
"Well, it's getting late." He changed the subject.
"I'll take you to your room."
"Well, thank you for your help. I'm very sorry for what happened just now." Xu Zhiyan held his daughter's hand and said in a low voice with his head down.
"actually……"
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by the man.
"It's okay, just pretend I didn't say anything and come and see your room."
Bai Jin turned around and led the two of them through the long and narrow corridor to another area of 1402.
I have to say that after the owner renovated this place, it looks really strange. The whole house is almost divided into two halves, one half is the bright living room area, and the other half can only be reached through a dim corridor.
Xu Zhiyan had already explored the room at the door and found that all the rooms were locked.
But what's strange is that after arriving inside, the progress of searching for the safe house has been stuck at 50%, and it won't move forward no matter what.
Bai Jin opened an inconspicuous door on the side of the corridor, and a warm children's room appeared before him.
Xu Zhiyan walked in holding Xu Xiaohua's hand, with a surprised expression on his face.
This time it was a real surprise.
This children's room is decorated so well.
This is a children's room with neutral decoration. The walls are painted in cream yellow, which is very warm.
The small bed with guardrails is covered with pink and blue sheets printed with cute cartoons, and there are all kinds of toys.
The toy storage boxes on the ground contain not only dolls and various cartoon vegetables, but also car and airplane models, which can almost perfectly meet the needs of all children.
There is actually a special restroom for children on the side, and all the items inside are customized products that are suitable for children's usage height.
"Xiaohua, do you like it? Can you sleep here tonight?"
Xu Zhiyan squatted down and looked at Xu Xiaohua at eye level.
However, Xu Xiaohua didn't even look at the outfit here, she just lowered her head and pulled Xu Zhiyan's sleeve.
"I want to be with Dad."
Xu Zhiyan touched his adopted daughter's head and politely refused.
"No, you are already a big kid of four years old. You need to learn to sleep by yourself."
Regardless of whether Xu Xiaohua can turn into a monster, he is not a pervert. Even if the system assigns him the identity of a single father, he will not really sleep with a four-year-old girl unless it is absolutely necessary.
"But what if some bad guys want to take me away?" Xu Xiaohua asked nervously.
"No, if there are bad guys, Dad will come to save you!"
Xu Zhiyan thought that the biggest boss of the haunted house was right behind him, and he really didn’t think that the other ghosts here could do anything.
But just in case, he still told Xu Xiaohua: "If we accidentally release some bad guys from some corners, then release a few more, and they will start fighting!"
Judging from the force of the previous bang on the door, Xu Xiaohua’s fighting ability should be quite high. If there are more monsters, perhaps her potential can be stimulated.
"Really, Dad?"
"Of course it's true!"
The barrage was shocked by this educational method.
[What kind of magical thinking logic is this? ]
[Okay, one bad guy is not enough, we need to release a few more, and then we can fight together, right? ]
[Although, that Xu Xiaohua almost broke the big iron gate just now... cough]
[She is indeed a good fighter. I think she is much stronger than Xiao Baiwan.]
[More than much stronger? If she really gets angry and punches Xiao Baiwan, Xiao Baiwan will probably be finished! ]
[Hahahaha, an adult was beaten unconscious by a four-year-old girl! ]
Bai Jin was not in a hurry.
He leaned against the door, watching the father and daughter chattering without any impatience.
It was not until Xu Zhiyan coaxed Xu Xiaohua that he pushed his glasses and said with a smile: "She is safe, don't worry."
Xu Zhiyan nodded.
"Well, I'll see her tomorrow morning."
Although Xu Xiaohua was dissatisfied, she did not say anything due to the pressure from Bai Jin.
"Bang--"
The door to the children's room was closed.
Xu Xiaohua looked at the closed door with a dejected expression and walked towards the children's restroom.
She stepped on a small stool, reached out for the small toothbrush, and skillfully squeezed toothpaste to brush her teeth.
But in the mirror, in addition to a cute girl brushing her teeth, there were other figures.
It was a little kid with purple skin all over his body.
It looked to be about the same age as Xu Xiaohua, with short hair and a cracked mouth. The smiling expression was particularly ferocious.
Xu Xiaohua paused while brushing her teeth and turned to look behind her.
Behind her is her children's toilet.
But when she turned around, she was shocked by what she saw in the mirror.
Just now, when I looked in the mirror, the purple-skinned kid who should have been standing behind her stood beside her for some unknown reason.
Xu Xiaohua frowned and quickened the pace of brushing her teeth and washing her face.
When she lowered her head to wash her face and looked up again, the devilish child had almost completely blocked her!
She looked at the ghost child's mouth in the mirror opening and closing, as if he was saying something, but when she listened carefully she could hear nothing, and she became a little impatient.
"What did you say? Speak louder."
“…”
The child's expression in the mirror changed slightly, and he looked a little surprised.
Seeing that the other party didn't say anything more, Xu Xiaohua waved her hand, jumped off her stool, walked into the room, and muttered, "He's actually a mute."
“…”
The ghost child in the mirror looked shocked.
Is it, is it being rejected?
After returning to the room, Xu Xiaohua did not sleep.
She thought about it and felt that she really couldn't sleep, but she didn't want to play with toys, so she ran to the small bookshelf and pulled out a few picture books.
If Xu Zhiyan were here, he might complain about the contents of the picture book.
The three picture books that Xu Xiaohua picked out at random all had the same content. The only difference was that the monsters inside looked different.
[The monster Ada found a cozy children's room and wanted to go in and eat the children inside...]
[The monster Er got lost in the forest and accidentally entered a space door. He found that there was a children's room on the other side of the door...]
[Monster Ah San...]
The three hideous-looking monsters all found the same children's room at the same time.
Xu Xiaohua flipped through a few pages and found that every page of the picture book was the door to her room.
"Hey, bad luck!"
She inexplicably thought of the bad uncle who separated her from her father.
With a cold face, Xu Xiaohua spread the picture book on the ground and ignored him. She climbed onto her soft little bed and went to sleep angrily.
There were faint roars and sounds of monsters fighting coming from the door.
She felt it was a bit noisy, so she turned over, ignored the door, and soon fell asleep.
Little did they know that the monsters that had just been summoned by the picture book met in the corridor and started fighting before they even touched the restrictions set by Bai Jin.
On the other side, Xu Zhiyan felt a slight vibration under his feet.
His perception was not very strong, but he could still tell that the vibrations came from Xu Xiaohua's room.
Bai Jin seemed to have noticed something, raised his eyebrows slightly, and snapped his fingers with his lowered hands.
Why are there things fighting at the door?
Soon, the sound and vibration disappeared.
He looked at the young man in front of him who was as timid as a rabbit and comforted him softly.
"It's okay, it might be the wind."
"Oh, that's good." Xu Zhiyan pretended to believe it and secretly gave Bai Jin the middle finger in his heart. Did this guy really think he was a moron?
However, as the man opened another door, Xu Zhiyan looked at the stairs that appeared inside with a serious expression.
This should be a large flat, so why is there a staircase?
Did this pervert intend to attack him on the first day? This shouldn't be the case...
Seeing Xu Zhiyan's hesitation, Bai Jin smiled faintly and spoke in a soothing tone, "I have already bought this building from the tenth floor upwards."
"I was originally planning to renovate it and connect everything here, um... but it seems something else put it on hold."
Xu Zhiyan nodded after listening to this, his face expressionless, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
No wonder his key could open the door of 1401! So the entire upper floors of the building were bought?
In fact, his key can not only open 1401 and 1402, but also the rooms downstairs!
So after he entered 1401, the system task judged that he started the haunted house task, because 1401 itself is also part of the haunted house...
Thinking of this, Xu Zhiyan looked again at Bai Jin who was leading the way in front.
Tsk, he really has a lot of money to burn.
If he doesn't make more money, it would be a shame to these idle houses!
Soon, the two went down to the 13th floor via the internal stairs.
The apartment here should be similar to the one upstairs, but it is separated into more rooms.
Bai Jin took Xu Zhiyan through the dim corridor and came to the end of the corridor.
"This is the guest bedroom. You can sleep here. I'm in the room right opposite you." Pushing open the door, Bai Jin pointed to the room opposite the guest bedroom and said with a smile.
"If you encounter any problems, you can find me across the street."
As he spoke, he lowered his head, leaned close to Xu Zhiyan's ear, and added softly.
"I don't lock the door at night..."
The hot air from his breath hit the fragile skin behind his ears, and Xu Zhiyan was so excited that he got goosebumps.
He nodded hurriedly and put some distance between himself and Bai Jin.
“Okay, okay!”
After answering, he jumped into the room, said good night hurriedly and closed the door.
"Bang--"
Bai Jin, who was locked outside the door, was not angry. He licked his lips, savoring the young man's expression just now, and felt happy.
Inside the door, Xu Zhiyan leaned against the door panel and quickly called up the safe house progress panel.
【Safe House Detection Tips】
[Progress: 60%]
In other words, the safe house is nearby!
He raised the corners of his mouth, and his expression changed from false shyness to real ecstasy.
I casually looked around the current room and it did look like an ordinary guest bedroom.
However, thinking of the other party's hint, he felt that something would definitely appear tonight to scare him, forcing him to rush to the opposite room for help.
Xu Zhiyan shook his head, feeling that it was a bit too early to go tonight, and decided to wait for Bai Jin to dry out before going.
A slight sound interrupted his thoughts, as if someone was downstairs.
Walking slowly to the window, Xu Zhiyan looked downstairs in the moonlight.
It's an acquaintance.
The other person's light silver hair was particularly dazzling in the moonlight.
I saw Xinan, who was wearing an electrician's uniform, holding a double-headed knife and killing the players under his feet bit by bit...
But the strange thing was that the player who was being sliced into pieces by him not only did not bleed, but the slices of flesh became translucent and melted like a pool of water.
Xu Zhiyan's heart skipped a beat, and he wondered if he had seen something he shouldn't have seen!
The next second, he saw Xinan looking up at him.
The other person's expression was stunned at first, then became very solemn.
It seemed like he saw something extraordinary.
In the live broadcast room, new viewers kept pouring in and started discussing the matter.
【? ? Why are there so many people here suddenly? 】
[Wait? What's going on here? Why is it so peaceful? Can't you see anything in the room? ]
【Didn’t you watch Xinan’s live broadcast? 】
[Fuck! I'm from next door. Do you want to go and see Mad Dog's live broadcast perspective? ]
The live broadcast room was in chaos.
Until someone jumped back and forth between the two live broadcast rooms.
[I, I went to Mad Dog’s live broadcast room and it was so… so fucking scary! ]
[What is that in Xiao Baiwan's room?! ]
It turns out that looking upstairs from Xinan's perspective.
The expressionless young man was looking downstairs with his arms folded indifferently.
The room behind the young man was crowded with all kinds of monsters with bared fangs and claws...
