Chapter 81: Fifty Percent We Will Never Be Able to Pass the Level...
After a few seconds, a strange door rose in the middle of the living room.
It was not attached to the wall, but had only a gorgeous silver door frame with a colorful vortex in the middle, like a magic door that could lead to another world.
Seeing this, the girl felt even more guilty, and subconsciously glanced at the "door" she had made - that rusty iron door was completely different from the door that appeared this time.
After looking at the unique "magic door" and then at the rusty iron door, Cecilia understood.
She walked towards the girl with a smile, and she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at her.
"You are such a kind child."
Stroking the girl's hair, she deliberately emphasized the word "kindness" and said, "For me, a special door was opened early."
"No... Even if you go in, nothing will happen!"
The girl raised her head in panic and argued: "Although it doesn't lead to the next room, it doesn't belong to any room. There is no danger. At most, it will make people lose their way..."
"Never get out again?"
Cecia lifted a strand of the girl's hair and considerately completed the unfinished words for her.
"If I'm lucky, I can..."
The girl shrank her neck timidly, met her half-smiling eyes, and changed the subject of her defense to look at Cecilia pitifully.
"I'm sorry, sister. I was wrong. I will never do this again. Can you please forgive me this time?"
"Okay, but you have to answer my questions."
She readily agreed, letting the girl's hair fall from her hands, "Have you seen 'it'?"
The mission of this copy is to find it, but after clearing the first room, no clues about it are given, and it is not even told whether the owner of the room is "it".
She could only find a breakthrough from the girl.
The description of it was too vague, but when the girl heard the question, she was just stunned and acted like she knew a lot about it.
"I...I've seen it twice."
The girl nodded and spoke softly.
"My mother took me to see it for the first time. It was very kind to me and played with me. My mother talked to it a lot at that time. My mother said that if they were gone one day, I should follow it and listen to what it said."
Having said this, the girl seemed to have thought of something and her expression became sad.
"The second time I saw it, my parents had left. It asked me to stay home and wait, and arranged for my older brothers and sisters to play with me."
"It said that as long as they were in this room, everyone had to listen to me. At first, some people tried to resist me, but they all fell to the ground and didn't move. Except, except you, sister..."
The girl paused, raised her eyes cautiously, and observed Cecilia's expression timidly.
Lying still? This means he is dead.
Seeing the girl's confused look, Cecia asked the question she was most concerned about -
"What does it look like? What are its characteristics?"
"Uh, it...it seems to be..."
The girl stumbled as she recalled the past, but the images in her mind became increasingly blurred. In the end, she could only bite the bullet and apologize, "I'm sorry, I can't remember..."
"Sister, please believe me! I really can't remember it, and I didn't mean to hide it from you!"
As if she was afraid of Cecilia's cruelty, the girl simply pounced on her and held her calves tightly.
Sure enough, the copy would not allow her to find clues easily.
She was not surprised by what the girl said. After calming her down, she temporarily left the girl and discussed countermeasures with the teddy bear.
"This child doesn't seem to be lying. It seems that his memory of "it" has been erased."
The teddy bear lay on Cecia's shoulder, shaking its head as it analyzed, "Also, we can't rule out the possibility that the girl is 'it'..."
"In that case, let's give it a try."
A bold plan flashed through her mind, and her eyes sparkled with excitement.
"As long as you say that sentence to each room owner, you can check them one by one and you will always find it."
Hearing this, the teddy bear was shocked and quickly stopped him, saying, "You are crazy! The rules also say that if you find the wrong person, you will anger the other person!"
"But now there is an exit."
Her eyes were fixed on the colorful door in the center of the living room. Cecilia had no worries or fears at all, only eagerness to try.
"If the girl gets irritated, it means she's not it, and we can immediately escape through the exit to the next room."
"What if she follows us?"
The little guy still disagreed and was very confused by her madness. "If you do this, the subsequent developments may be out of control. You might die here!"
"Fifty percent probability."
She remained firm and was not swayed by any persuasion.
"Since we don't know whether the owner of the room can leave his room, it means there is a 50% probability for each."
"There are too few clues now. It's possible that it's pretending to be the owner of any room. This is the 'first' room. We probably won't be able to go back."
"If we go directly to the next room, what if the girl is actually "it" in disguise? "
After hearing Cecia's explanation, the teddy bear seemed to be thinking about something and muttered, "Then we will never be able to pass the level..."
"So, there is only one way for us to go."
Cecilia curled up the corners of her mouth, like a hungry jackal eyeing fresh prey.
After making preparations, the man and the bear coaxed and tricked the girl into bringing her to the edge of the living room, as far away from the central door as possible, giving themselves ample time to react.
"Sister, what game do you want to play?"
The girl asked crisply from several meters away, looking at Cecia innocently.
Cecia moved closer to the colorful door, met the girl's eyes, and whispered, "I found you."
"…Huh? You got the wrong person?"
As if a keyword was triggered, the originally docile and cute little girl suddenly raised her head and her voice became unusually hoarse.
A red light flashed in the dark eyes, and sharp teeth were revealed in the grinning mouth, which were so densely packed that they did not look like a structure possessed by humans.
The area around the girl's lips was covered in sticky blood. She stared at Cecilia with a weird smile.
"Even though I ate my dad and mom, I'm still very hungry... Sister, let me eat you too!"
As she said that, she rushed forward.
【Welcome players to enter the second room - "Neighborhood Dating", and provide you with basic information about the room. 】
As early as when the girl showed strange behavior, Cecilia remained highly alert, and before she could make any move, she went in with the teddy bear.
In just a flash, she came to another room.
The gorgeous colorful door suddenly disappeared as she entered, and the familiar mechanical sound resounded throughout the room again.
[As a new tenant, you need to invite your neighbors to a party to prove that you have won their approval. But your five neighbors always refuse with various reasons, as if they don't welcome your arrival at all.]
[Every night at 9 o'clock, you will hold a party at home. If you fail to get approval for a week in a row, you will be kicked out of the room and become a homeless vagrant.]
[Players are requested to try their best to please their neighbors. After five neighbors join the party at the same time, players can move on to the next room. ]
The long mechanical voice spoke out all the information, and nothing unusual happened around them. The teddy bear breathed a sigh of relief, and its body collapsed limply in Cecilia's palm.
"It seems that the god of luck is favoring us."
Cecia stroked its belly, and her tense nerves relaxed a little. "Since the owner of the room cannot leave the room, we can confirm the owner's identity every time the exit is opened."
"This way, we can always find it."
"Xia, you are the only one who has the courage to do this..."
The teddy bear muttered softly. It was terribly frightened, fearing that the girl would catch up and tear them to pieces.
Bang!
A dull sound interrupted their conversation, and a door suddenly rose in the middle of the room. The silver door frame and colorful vortex were exactly the same as the one they had just entered.
"Oh no! Could it be that the girl is chasing after me?"
The teddy bear shivered and covered his eyes with his paws.
Cecia took two steps back and took out an axe from her backpack.
As they were alert, a skinny middle-aged man walked out of the door timidly.
After making eye contact with Cecia, he quickly looked away as if he had been electrocuted, quickly ran to the corner, and squatted against the wall. His body was still shaking, as if he had seen something particularly terrifying.
