Chapter 289 The Big Family of Apartment 444
Luo Si pulled Jiang Liyue into the apartment tenant group.
The group is called "Apartment No. 444 Family" and has 165 members. Jiang Liyue saw that Luo Si, who invited her to the group, was called "1202-Luo Si" in the group.
Jiang Liyue was somewhat surprised: "Brother Luo, you live in our apartment building too?"
Luo Si nodded: "Yes, the administrator is also in the group. You can ask him if you have any questions, but it's best not to bother the administrator. By the way, you can take a look at the group announcement later. It's some notices about our apartment."
"Okay."
Jiang Liyue saw the administrator's account at the very beginning of the group member list.
His profile picture was completely black, and his nickname was very formal: Apartment Manager No. 444.
Seeing that Jiang Liyue had found the person, Luo Si waved his hand and said, "Miss Jiang, I'll go back to work now. You can get some rest."
Jiang Liyue smiled sweetly and said, "Okay."
Once the door was closed, her face returned to its expressionless state, and she changed her nickname in the group chat according to the standard format.
1808—Xiao Jiang.
The "Apartment 444 Family" became lively for a moment because of her joining.
[1202—Luo Si]: Welcome to our new tenant, Ms. Jiang! Ms. Jiang is a super beautiful woman!
[0510—Wang Heng]: Welcome new tenants.
[1702—Old Li]: Welcome new tenant!
...behind them was a neat row of people welcoming them.
Jiang Liyue typed without expression.
[1808—Xiao Jiang]: Thank you everyone for your enthusiasm^^
【0510—Wang Heng】：@1808—Xiao Jiang, newbie photos!
Jiang Liyue glanced at the name; the profile picture was a selfie of a young man, probably the one who had spoken to Luo Si in the elevator earlier.
Jiang Liyue didn't continue the conversation and simply tossed her phone aside.
She planned to check the room first, and decided not to read the group announcement yet.
Compared to when Luo Si was there, she examined the area more carefully this time.
Under the bed, she saw many twisted "Run" characters written in an unknown red paint. The stacked "Run" characters created a creepy feeling.
In addition, Jiang Liyue also saw similar words engraved deep inside the wardrobe.
So when Luo Si said the previous tenant left quickly, perhaps he meant... he died quickly?
After searching the room thoroughly, Jiang Liyue turned her attention back to the large mirror in the bathroom that faced the door.
As I stared at it, the once clear mirror suddenly became blurry.
A red light was flashing on it.
A woman wearing a long white dress, her hair covering most of her face, appeared in the mirror. She slightly raised her eyes, revealing white eyes without pupils.
After meeting Jiang Liyue's gaze, he slowly curled the corners of his mouth in a wicked manner.
Then they waited expectantly for Jiang Liyue's reaction.
Jiang Liyue blinked, then pulled out a rag from somewhere: "Why is the mirror so dirty? It can't reflect my image clearly at all, and it makes me look so ugly..."
She muttered to herself as she wiped the mirror with a cloth.
The female ghost in the mirror, her face covered by a rag: ? ? ?
What's wrong with her? She just came out to scare people, and now she's being humiliated for her appearance?
Is she really that good-looking?
The female ghost, filled with resentment, thought of the beautiful female player outside the mirror.
...Okay, it is indeed quite beautiful.
So could you please not cover her face with a rag? She's not trying to hurt anyone, can't we just look at this pretty girl? TT
Unfortunately, Jiang Liyue couldn't hear the female ghost's thoughts, so after wiping the mirror a few more times with the rag, the original blurriness disappeared.
Only her clear image remained in the mirror.
Jiang Liyue smiled, feeling much better.
After finishing these tasks, Jiang Liyue cleaned up a large patch of black hair that had appeared in the bathroom drain, as well as the water pipe that was dripping red liquid.
Only then did he take out the toiletries prepared in the space and begin washing up.
The female ghosts: attempting to intimidate
Yueyue's wife: Expressionless, is that all?
【Why won't my wife let me watch her take a shower every month? We're so close, why won't she let me see?!】
I could actually pay to top up my account too.
Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling the viewers were, the camera was still turned to other players.
The dozen or so players came in together from the apartment lobby. They must have met on the way. They didn't run into any agents and found apartment number 444 on their own.
Before even entering the lobby, a middle-aged man with a square face stopped.
He introduced himself, saying, "Hello everyone, my name is Zhang Guofu. Before we enter the apartment, let's discuss this. I think this mission involves a murderer who breaks into other people's houses. It would be safer if we all stayed together."
“Look at the dozen or so of us now. If we all live together, even if the serial killer really wants to kill someone, we might kill him first.”
"Maybe we can finish the mission ahead of schedule, right?"
Zhang Guofu has a square face, which makes him look very reliable.
So when he said that, some people actually thought it made sense and actively agreed with him.
"Brother Zhang is right, I'll follow you."
"Brother Zhang, count me in."
Several people proactively expressed their willingness to cooperate with Zhang Guofu, but they were clearly inexperienced newcomers.
But while some people are willing to believe Zhang Guofu, others are not.
A man and a woman in the corner sneered at Zhang Guofu's appearance, saying, "Idiot."
The comments section is filled with similar player tactics.
[Ugh, another classic case of players sabotaging each other. Sometimes I think new players are so innocent and foolish. Why would they think someone they just met in a dungeon would help them?]
[Exactly, from another perspective, if they were stronger, would they unconditionally help other players in a dungeon?]
[Since we're all going to die anyway, might as well eat me! I want to eat meat!!]
But thinking about it carefully, new players, who lack skill, have no choice but to believe that maybe there are good people out there.
Can't you rely on yourself? Everyone starts as a beginner.
Immediately, the comments section erupted with discussion.
Just then, the players decided on their strategy and were about to head to the front hall when they ran into Luo Si, who had just come out and was in a good mood.
The players immediately noticed Luo Si's presence.
Everyone immediately looked at him cautiously.
This NPC came from apartment 444; he might be the serial killer.
Luo Si seemed oblivious to their wariness, grinning broadly: "Oh, so many friends? Are they all here to rent a room? That's great!"
Since Zhang Guofu had previously acted like the boss in front of others, he mustered up his courage and naturally took two steps forward: "Brother, we're here to rent a room. May I ask who you are?"
"I'm a real estate agent," Luo Si grinned. "It's great that you want to rent a place."
"Come in with me quickly."
As he spoke, he turned and walked into apartment 444, and the players, watching his retreating figure, felt a chill run down their spines.
They exchanged glances for a few moments, and finally followed him.
Regardless, they must move into apartment 444; it's a requirement of the instance.
