violation
Meanwhile, Building 5, 4th Floor, Room 401.
A white-haired man with albinism was riding on the back of a man wearing a white raincoat. He was facing the ground with his hands clamped by the man.
The man regretted opening the door to the woman in the gas mask.
At that time, she knocked on the door and asked for a visit. The man saw that she was frail and alone, so he opened the door and let her in.
Who knew that when he opened the door, a strong man appeared and knocked him down. Then, the woman and two men wearing gas masks broke into his house.
One of the men was wearing a red suit under a white raincoat, looking very charming. But the other man was extremely ruthless, knocking him down with one move and riding on his back.
Others rummaged through drawers and stole bottles of water from the refrigerator.
"Brother Xiao, there are only four bottles of mineral water left!" The man with a crew cut spoke in a rough voice, feeling irritated by a headache and nausea.
"He lives alone." The woman's voice was delicate.
"Take it away." Xiao Chi, wearing a gas mask, looked around the hall and saw the cute decorations and photo frames in the TV cabinet. "Look for his rule paper."
The man's face turned red, and beads of sweat hung on his white hair. "What else are you going to do?"
Xiao Chi's knife tip gently gestured at the man's face. "Be quiet, I just want to confirm your camp - after all, you are wearing a white windbreaker."
The man's eyes were subtle.
The members of the Red Team even rummaged through the trash cans.
"Brother Xiao, I couldn't find the rules here, but I found two small pieces of paper."
"Read it out."
“Despair is the most delicious spice.”
"Mom and Dad will always love you."
Xiao Chi frowned, his eyes more sinister than usual due to the headache. "Don't you live alone?"
"No, it's not my note. It appeared for no reason..."
That's strange.
The word "brother" appears in the Red Team's residence.
"Where is the rule paper at your house?" Xiao Chi smiled and gently scratched the man's face with the tip of the knife, revealing a bright red color.
The man said nothing.
Xiao Chi endured the discomfort of dizziness and scratched his face to his jaw, leaving a long red blood mark. "Do you know what the most beautiful color in the world is? It is the red that covers the human body."
The man gritted his teeth.
“Oh, and I used to be a surgeon…t”
The screams echoed in the house for a long time.
"...I said...I said..." The gasping man had one ear cut off, blood dotting his painful face. "I--"
The cell phone rang.
Xiao Chi's headache worsened, as if his head was split in half, and his bloodshot eyes were filled with restless anger.
Although he was unhappy about being disturbed, he had to answer the call because it must be from the team members who stayed behind.
"Captain, the rules have been updated! Come back soon!"
Thank you for your cooperation in prevention and control. Now please be sure to follow the following rules to help you stay sane.
1. The time unit for the effectiveness of these rules is hours.
2. It is forbidden to go out or visit neighbors.
3. It is forbidden to take off the white raincoat.
4. No eating is allowed.
5. Drinking water is prohibited.
6. Please be wary of neighbors who behave in an unusual way.
7. Maintain an optimistic attitude.
8. The above rules will take effect at 10 o'clock, and the next updated rules will appear in the second bedroom.
(Find them)
The five members of the Fluorescent Green Team stood in a circle and were all dumbfounded after reading the latest rules.
Everyone was confused as to who the handwritten "they" below referred to.
“No food or drink allowed? That’s so cruel.” Wang Keke clenched her fists in anger.
Yu Xiaowan was worried. "I hope this rule won't last long."
Lost in thought, Lu Miao stared at the floating dust outside the window, the gray particles floating between heaven and earth.
"Why are we suddenly not allowed to go out and visit neighbors?" He Ping'an pounded his forehead, pondering the latest rules. "There are five consecutive prohibitions, which seems very urgent, and the handwritten message at the end of the sentence is gone. Is there any connection?"
"Do you think Article 2 and Article 6 are contradictory?" Wang Keke propped up his heavy head, lacking energy. "Since going out and visiting are prohibited, why do we still need to be vigilant about neighbors with abnormal behavior? Isn't that redundant?"
He Ping'an's mind moved. "When we were forbidden to go out, the captain saw someone running into the building from outside. Does this mean that some neighbors don't follow the rules?"
Click!
Just as he finished speaking, the security door outside made a slight sound, scaring them so much that they forgot to breathe and looked at each other in surprise.
"I remember we closed and locked the door when we came back." Lu Miao glanced at the team members with pale golden faces.
Weekend picked up a fruit knife, a fierce look flashed across his eyes. "Open the wooden door and take a look."
Wang Keke, who was leading the way, opened the inner wooden door with great momentum.
There is indeed someone outside the door!
The other person was wearing an old gas mask, had short hair, and was wearing a white shirt. He should be a man.
Only Wang Keke's face was visible behind the door, with her swollen eyes slightly narrowed under the gas mask.
Lu Miao and others who were hiding nearby saw Wang Keke secretly making the number "1".
"Ask a question." Lu Miao's voice was as soft as a mosquito.
"Who are you?" Wang Keke asked the man outside the door, wrinkling her nose uncomfortably.
A strange stench wafted from the other side.
"I live on the eighth floor, and I want to ask you something."
She was suspicious. "What is it?"
"Uh...it's dangerous outside. Can I go in and talk?"
Wang Keke lowered her head and thought, secretly glancing at Lu Miao's gesture. Then, she asked the man, "Are you coming downstairs alone?"
"Yes."
Dongdong...
Wang Keke vaguely heard footsteps echoing on the fire escape staircase.
The man outside the door looked anxious.
In a blink of an eye, Wang Keke closed the wooden door, leaving the man out.
"No, that person stinks. I don't know what that strange smell is, but it doesn't sound like the body odor of someone who hasn't taken a shower for a few days." She quickly fanned away the stench that remained in the air.
"He's only been in for a few days in total." He Ping'an complained.
Wang Keke was startled. "That's not right. The gas mask that person wore was quite old. There are some scratches and dust on it. It's different from the brand new ones we wear."
"Is he wearing a white raincoat or a white windbreaker?"
"I didn't see the whole thing, but it's definitely not a translucent raincoat like ours."
Lu Miao frowned. Whenever he tried to think deeply, he got a splitting headache and felt exhausted.
Weekend suddenly said, "We smelled a bad smell when we went up the stairs, too."
"It came from him." Lu Miao groaned, "He led us upstairs and disobeyed the rules. That's not right!"
She sniffed the fresh oxygen released by the cactus and forced her mind to work. "His course of action should be that he saw the two of us on the eighth floor and went back, but we are not sure whether he really entered the house. He may have followed us to the seventh floor. He did not knock on the door just now, but tried to pick the lock."
Wang Keke stroked her pink ponytail. "He must have known that I, who opened the door, and the captain who went out, were two people, and he also knew that I was not the only one in the house. Was the weirdo's purpose to break into the house and rob?"
"Scouting the place." Weekend snorted. "Or maybe testing something."
He Pingan pulled his hair to relieve his headache. "Wait a minute. The course of action the captain described makes sense, but it has nothing to do with the content of the rules? The rules clearly prohibit going out, so why did he go out?"
"It's okay for him to break the rules."
As they were talking, a shrill scream was heard from downstairs.
They were terrified into silence.
“Help—”
The miserable cries for help penetrated several floors.
Ping pong.
There was a lot of noise downstairs.
Lu Miao closed his eyes and considered for a moment, then opened his eyes with a determined look.
Wang Keke and He Pingan, who were familiar with her, had a bad feeling.
"I'll go downstairs and take a look."
"No!" Wang Keke was so excited that she saw stars. "The noise downstairs must be caused by the Territory Lord killing people. Captain, you are walking into a tiger's mouth! And if you break the rules, you may die!"
"Not necessarily. This domain master's killing method tends to be gradual. The commotion downstairs must be man-made. Since someone broke the rules and nothing happened, I guess breaking the rules won't result in death."
"No, it's too risky!"
Yu Xiaowan also advised: "I also think it's too risky. What if there's more than one murderer downstairs?"
He Pingan asked, "Captain, do you have a basis for violating the rules without causing death?"
"Maybe."
"Do you need me to go downstairs with you?" Weekend asked.
"No, you stay and help deal with the strange neighbors."
Lu Miao put on a gas mask, went out holding a cactus in one hand and a fruit knife in the other.
After making sure that there was no one in the corridor outside the door, she gently opened the security door.
The security door was not closed for the time being. Weekend, who was standing by the door, put on a gas mask and watched her walk into the stairs.
If we encounter an ambush, he can lend a hand.
Fortunately, the bad situation he had expected did not happen, so he gently closed the security door.
The dizziness, headache, and nausea were doubled, worse than the last time she went out, as if she was trapped in a can and was being shaken hard, with her head hitting an iron plate. She sniffed the cactus through her gas mask and barely stood up, then quietly went downstairs.
My chest feels stuffy and I feel like vomiting.
Thinking of vomiting inside the gas mask, she raised her head and forcibly stopped the urge.
Great, it turns out that violating the “no going out” rule is not a death sentence.
Following the rustling sounds and faint crying downstairs, she came to the stairwell on the fifth floor.
A fresh and strong smell of blood wafted from the fifth floor.
Lu Miao held onto the knife handle tightly and tiptoed toward the open fire door.
At this moment, she heard the sound of wolfing down food.
There were bright red bloodstains on the open security door of Room 502, and a bloodstain on the floor at the door extended into the house.
The fence of the security door was broken, leaving a large hole.
The cautious deer fry peeked out.
The floor of the hall was splattered with blood, and two bloody figures were lying there.
Three squatting figures were gnawing at the flesh and blood of the two men.
Lu Miao, who already felt chest tightness, felt like vomiting. She gritted her teeth and held it back, quietly slipping back to the stairwell.
Boom boom boom.
Someone upstairs came down, two or three floors away from her.
There were no repeated footsteps, and the other person was one person.
She couldn't go downstairs nor be stuck on the fifth floor. Her brain took priority and controlled her legs to go up the stairs.
She first closed the fire door on the sixth floor and locked it.
On the way back to the seventh floor, the two sides met on a narrow road.
The faint stench of the other party penetrated into Lu Miao's gas mask. He was wearing a white shirt as a jacket and a gas mask full of scratches.
Unbelievable speculations flashed through Lu Miao's mind.
The other party did not give her time to think. He picked up a bloodstained knife and rushed down the stairs with a "hehe" laugh.
With a dull headache, Lu Miao protected the cactus and kicked the opponent in the abdomen. In a blink of an eye, she turned around and stabbed the fruit knife into the opponent's chest.
"ah……"
Before the man could scream, Lu Miao raised his leg and stepped on his throat.
Crunch——
The opponent's larynx was obviously broken and blood spurted out of his mouth.
Because of exerting too much force, Lu Miao began to see double images in front of his eyes, and his dizzy head felt like he was riding on a merry-go-round, spinning non-stop.
She pulled out the fruit knife with all her strength and pried open the other person's gas mask.
The other person is a deformed woman.
Her face was covered with pustules that emitted a foul odor; her left eye had a swollen tumor and her eyeball was cloudy.
Almost at the same time, on the 4th floor of Building 5, a figure wearing an old white coat passed by 401.
The security door of 401 was opened and a bloody smell wafted out.
The man looked greedily into the house.
Suddenly, the distorted picture that could not fit in his field of vision frightened the man so much that he screamed and yelled like crazy, but he could not help but walk into the house.
As food.
