Chapter 164
After being happy, Shen Yunzhe began to care about the issue he was most concerned about.
Where should we eat?
Man is iron and food is steel. If you want to survive in the game, eating is the most important thing!
Li Yiluan responded, "Each player has been assigned a room. They can't cook their own meals at home, right?"
"My little house only has a living room and a bedroom, not even a kitchen," Shen Yunzhe said with disdain. "I've already searched twice, and there's no refrigerator or snacks. Besides water, there's nothing to eat."
Li Yiluan thought for a moment, "So it seems I didn't find a kitchen or food in my room either."
Let’s not talk about normal communities. A normal family kitchen is a necessity. Even if there is no kitchen, there should be a pot for cooking and some food. After all, everyone has to live, and it is difficult to afford ordering takeout every day. It is rare to see a house like this with no trace of anything at all.
Or does this community have a unified canteen for dining?
But this is a community, not a school.
Li Yuluan and Shen Yunzhe walked around the entire community and met a few early risers along the way. Finally, they confirmed that every household in the community did not have a kitchen.
Almost everyone was already starving, but there was nothing to eat. Some players even wondered if they would really go hungry for several days.
It was fine at the beginning, but as time went on without eating, people became weaker and weaker. This had never happened in previous playgrounds.
"Wait a little longer." Li Yulun tried to appease the increasingly reluctant Shen Yunzhe. "I'll go ask Huang Yihua. You should be quiet in your room. 1-4 is right next door to yours. Pay attention to what's going on next door. Everyone should go out together at 3 pm."
"If players 1-4 are alright, I'll definitely go."
So Li Yiluan left and Shen Yunzhe returned to his room.
He said he was not that hungry. The person with sleep disorder had a very low appetite. This was entirely due to his illness. He would not feel hungry even if he did not eat for three days.
He just thinks that eating is a very ritualistic thing.
"Of course I have to eat when it's time to eat, just like you can only take medicine after eating." Shen Yunzhe muttered, "System, am I right?"
[You're right.] The system no longer refutes him.
"Isn't there anyone in charge of this community?" Shen Yunzhe continued, "People will starve to death if they don't eat!"
At this moment, there was a bang, and Shen Yunzhe turned his head to look at the wall.
A rustling sound was heard, and Shen Yunzhe stared at the wall with a subtle look in his eyes.
The sound was very strange, as if something was moving, like some small animals crawling, constantly turning over and over. Shen Yunzhe walked to the wall and put his hand on it. The sound came from the opposite side of the wall, which was room 1-4 next door.
The sound came suddenly and disappeared suddenly, disappearing after just a few seconds.
Shen Yunzhe raised his eyebrows. He walked to the door and took a look at the notebook. Under his scribbling, a new line of handwriting appeared in the notebook.
[08:32: I heard a strange noise coming from next door 1-4. I'm a little worried. Should I go over and knock on the door?]
Shen Yunzhe pointed at the notebook and said, "Are you asking me if I want to go over and take a look?"
"No, I didn't hear anything." Shen Yunzhe said.
The next moment after he finished speaking, an extra line of words appeared in the notebook.
08:35: In the end, I still didn't go over and knock on the door. After all, neighbors 1-4 were at home. Xiangsheng Community is very safe. What could happen in my own home?
But you forgot that Xiangyang Community has a rule: residents should be kind and friendly, live in harmony, and actively help neighbors in need.
You are not a qualified resident.
"You're judging me like that? Who do you think you are?" Shen Yunzhe pointed at the notebook. "Before you judge others as failing, first look at yourself. You're an unqualified notebook. You're hypocritical and need to be retrained! No one will believe what you write in a notebook like this!"
"Forcing me to go to 1-4 and knock on the door? You are ignoring my human rights and beliefs."
Shen Yunzhe kept refuting in the notebook.
I was arguing with the notebook early in the morning because I had nothing to do.
Finally, Shen Yunzhe was satisfied only after he had crossed out all the words in the notebook.
Nothing happened after that. Shen Yunzhe sat there until three o'clock in the afternoon. When the time came, Shen Yunzhe heard the bell ringing and the sound of doors opening outside. Shen Yunzhe walked to the door and took a look at the notebook before going out.
This thing avoids the place where he crossed out and starts a new line very naturally.
[3:00: The daily worship begins. We must have a wholehearted faith in the Virgin Mary. Today is also a day to worship the Virgin Mary.]
The tone of voice made Shen Yunzhe want to tear it off. He opened the door, and the residents of other rooms had already opened the door and left. Shen Yunzhe closed the door and walked to the entrance door. The door was already open at this time, and the residents of this community came down one by one. They passed by Shen Yunzhe without even looking at him.
After watching for a while, Shen Yunzhe followed him out. At 3:10, the ringing stopped.
Li Yulun and Huang Yihua came over from behind. Li Yulun patted his shoulder, actually preparing to control Shen Yunzhe to prevent Shen Yunzhe from rushing out at this time.
Because they saw that the strange creatures in front of them had all knelt down.
Most of the players were standing at the back. When they saw the strange creatures kneeling down, they immediately squatted down, and some even knelt on one knee. They were not being pious, because they all knew that this was just a playground, and they were just players struggling to survive in this playground.
What a piety!
What's more, they grew up in a normal society and they won't die if they don't kneel, so of course they won't kneel.
Huang Yihua glanced at the players behind him, "18, two people are missing."
"One of them was locked in the building," Li Yiluan said. "I wanted to see what was going on, so I waited at the building entrance. At ten o'clock, the bell stopped ringing and the door was immediately closed. I don't know why that player couldn't get here in time and was directly locked at the door."
Shen Yunzhe looked around and said, "Players 1-4 are not here."
The strange creatures in front were kneeling devoutly to the Virgin Mary. They were muttering to themselves, saying all kinds of strange words, and finally raised their hands. The players watched them kneeling for half an hour. After half an hour, the bell rang. Shen Yunzhe turned his head to look at the door and unexpectedly found a person appeared at the door.
The man lowered his head and wore a wide hat, but each strange creature that returned was given a bag of food.
"Food." Shen Yunzhe said, "Only by attending the 3pm worship can we get food?"
The players looked at each other, they were worried whether this food was really edible, but to be honest, this was indeed the only food they could eat. They could only line up and walk into the community, taking the distributed food. After entering, Shen Yunzhe opened the bag and took a look. They were all fast food.
Just as he was checking, a player suddenly walked up to Shen Yunzhe.
"Hello, my name is Zhu Ya," the man introduced himself first. "I'm currently staying at 2-5. There was a player who didn't leave just now. Do you know who it is?"
Shen Yunzhe raised his head and looked at him, "What do you mean?"
"I just came to ask because there was a loud noise last night, and then someone was missing at 3pm. I don't think something is right."
"That's not what I meant. What I meant was... you clearly know that this player lives next door to me, yet you still use such euphemisms. What are you trying to do?" Shen Yunzhe looked him calmly in the eyes. "Pretending that you know nothing and are a complete outsider?"
"Or do you want to know what happened, but you think anyone who rushes forward will die, so you're looking for someone to be the first to do so?"
Zhu Ya choked and could no longer speak.
The players had not left yet at this time, and almost all of them heard what Shen Yunzhe said.
Zhu Ya's face turned pale and blue. He didn't expect Shen Yunzhe to be so rude. Not only did he generously admit that the missing player was next to him, he also directly exposed his secret thoughts.
Why don't you play by the rules?!
"That's not what I meant," Zhu Ya said. "I'm just worried. We're all worried."
Shen Yunzhe smiled and walked to the door of 1-4 and pressed the doorbell.
Ding Dong, the doorbell rang, but there was no movement inside.
Shen Yunzhe kept pressing the doorbell as if he was in a playful mood. The sound kept ringing in everyone's ears, jumping as if it was going to pierce into their heads. In the end, Li Yuluan went over and pressed Shen Yunzhe's hand.
"Okay, stop ringing the doorbell. No one has opened the door in such a long time. I guess something must have happened."
Li Yuluan's face was indifferent and he rarely showed any expression, but at this moment he seemed steady.
Huang Yihua also nodded. "That's right. There's no need to confirm it any further. Let's find a way to open the door."
"Are you going to bang on the door?" Shen Yunzhe asked Li Yuluan happily.
"Get out of the way first." Li Yiluan pulled Shen Yunzhe over. "First try to see if you can force it open. If you can't, we can think of other ways."
Then Shen Yunzhe saw the people present starting to bang on the door in groups of three or four, but the door was very strong and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't open it. Shen Yunzhe watched for a while and then tugged at Li Yuluan's sleeve.
"Li Yiluan, didn't I tell you..."
Li Yuluan looked at him.
"Actually," Shen Yunzhe said, "I can unlock the door."
Li Yiluan:……?
Everyone: ???
Others looked at Shen Yunzhe with strange eyes, but Shen Yunzhe laughed, as if he had played a joke on everyone.
Shen Yunzhe can unlock locks, of course he can, because this is an auxiliary ability of Code Erosion. From the beginning, Code Erosion was not called Code Erosion, but Code Locksmith. Because the ability of Erosion is too unique, this ability was completely ignored.
Ever since his synchronization rate with Code Erode reached 100%, Shen Yunzhe could open 80% of the locks on the market. Of course, he never told anyone about it, after all, it sounded very cruel.
Shen Yunzhe squatted at the door and used a piece of wire to unlock it. With two clicks, the door that ten big men couldn't break open creaked open.
Everyone: ...
Now is not the time to curse, we should focus on the situations 1-4 first.
The door was pushed open by Shen Yunzhe, and when the door was opened, several black things jumped out instantly. Someone almost couldn't hold back their screams, because the things that jumped out were nothing else but three or four black mice as big as kittens.
The black rat scurried out the door and disappeared in an instant.
Everyone looked at each other, cold sweats breaking out on their backs.
At this time, the smell in the room finally spread to their nasal cavity. It was a bloody smell with sour sweetness. The smells blended together were particularly unpleasant.
The room was dark because the curtains in the living room were drawn. Shen Yunzhe reached out to the door with an expressionless face. Click, he turned on the light in the living room.
The next moment, the entire living room lit up, allowing them to see the tragic scene in the living room.
The player in room 1-4 was lying on the sofa, flat on his back with his hands clasped together. There was a bloody knife mark on his neck, as if it had been chopped off by an axe. His head was almost broken from his neck, and blood soaked the sofa and flowed onto the floor.
This was such a standard murder scene, but what made them silent was not the scene, but the countless red biscuits.
Small red biscuits were scattered around the sofa and even stuffed into the middle of his chopped neck. Some of the biscuits seemed to have been bitten into pieces, and even the wound on his neck was covered with bloody bite marks.
The first thing they thought of was the mouse that had just escaped.
Everyone's face looked quite ugly.
Shen Yunzhe walked to the sofa, and even the people present did not react. They looked at Shen Yunzhe in surprise.
He lowered his head and looked at the corpse. After a moment, he spoke, "No matter who gives you cookies, don't eat them."
“Who would eat this?”
"Who knows?" Shen Yunzhe sighed. "He was hacked to death, but he showed no signs of resistance or struggle. He was just lying there, chopped down by an axe. Doesn't that seem strange to you?"
Shen Yunzhe turned to look at them. "Whether he was asleep or something else, it's strange that he was killed so quietly."
Everyone thought about the scene for a while, and they frowned, obviously frightened by the scene in their imagination.
A player, a player who could think of using wishes to restrict 1-2 weird creatures, just lay quietly on the sofa and was hacked to death without even resisting?
It was a wonder he even managed to sleep last night.
Everyone left with mixed feelings, and no one wanted to care about the bodies of players 1-4.
Huang Yihua said something to Li Yulun and turned to leave. She had something important to deal with. Shen Yunzhe was still standing next to the corpse, so Li Yulun did not leave.
"What are you thinking about?" Li Yuluan asked him.
"Nothing." Shen Yunzhe smiled at Li Yuluan. He walked to the door, took the notebook from the door, then opened it and began to read.
Li Yiluan then remembered the record book. Yes, if it was a record book, it should be able to record what happened last night, although this thing was really strange.
[17:52: Today, the owner of 1-4 moved in.]
[18:14: 1-2's neighbor visited 1-1, but 1-1's neighbor did not open the door.]
[18:24:1-2 The neighbor came to deliver cookies. She seemed very kind, but you didn't open the door. It wasn't for any reason, you just didn't want to.]
But you forgot that Xiangsheng Community has rules that require residents to be kind and friendly and live in harmony. You ignored your neighbors' efforts and are not a qualified resident.
[19:03: You decide to change your wish. You feel a little sorry for your neighbor 1-2 and hope she won't be angry with you.]
21:42: It's neither too early nor too late when there's a sudden, rapid banging on the door next door. You peek through the peephole and see 1-2's neighbor seemingly researching the flavors of cookies, constantly trying to discuss them with 1-1's neighbor.
[1-1's neighbor thinks she is disturbing them and is very angry. Do you want to help 1-1's neighbor? ]
【You choose not to help, you are not a qualified resident. 】
These messages corresponded to the messages in Shen Yunzhe's room. Shen Yunzhe looked at the records and looked at Li Yuluan expressionlessly. Li Yuluan nodded to him, and then they turned to a new page.
This time, it was finally something Shen Yunzhe had never experienced before.
22:45: There's a knock on your door. You look over and see it's neighbor 1-2. She says she was really sorry for what she did during the day and wanted to apologize now. The Virgin Mary appeared, and she doesn't blame you at all. She even thinks it was her fault.
[The Virgin Mary has appeared. I cannot refuse her. Please open the door.]
You opened the door.
[You... open the door, open the door... open. ]
【She...comes in, comes in.】
