Chapter 299: The Unscrupulous Tasker in the Infinite Flow (7)



Chapter 299: The Unscrupulous Tasker in the Infinite Flow (7)

604 is indeed unlucky.

This is what everyone is thinking at the moment.

No matter what, clues still need to be found. Everyone decided to continue asking the residents in the building today. If there is still no result, they can only knock on the door of Room 601.

But before that...

Coo~coo~

Feeling everyone's gazes, Li Shiqi scratched her head in embarrassment: "I'm trying to lose weight recently. I didn't eat before entering the game. In fact, I was hungry last night."

Not only her, but everyone else also felt more or less hungry after not eating for more than ten hours.

Someone suggested: "I remember when I came here yesterday, I saw that there seemed to be a breakfast shop downstairs. It won't be too late to finish eating first and then look for clues."

Obtained unanimous agreement.

Su Yu said that she had almost recovered and followed them.

Walking through the living room, Su Yu suddenly looked up and glanced at the painting on the wall. The painting blended into the entire room and it would be easy to overlook it if you didn't pay special attention.

The cartoon portraits are very delicately drawn.

"What are you looking at?" Rong Xin followed Su Yu's gaze and raised her eyebrows, but found nothing unusual.

Su Yu pursed her lips obediently and retracted her gaze: "Nothing, I just think that painting is a bit beautiful."

With a click, the door closed from the outside.

The cartoon character blinked, and two exaggerated blushes quietly appeared on its cheeks.

After leaving Room 604, Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief with a barely perceptible intensity.

What the hell, why are there ghosts everywhere here? She just saw the eyes of the cartoon character in the painting move.

After the baptism of the hair ghost, Su Yu seemed to understand how to use the ghost-seeing ghost halo. It turned out that it was not love at first sight, but love that grew over time, and it would only be useful if she kept improving the favorability.

When she comes back, I will confess every suspicious thing. I don’t believe that there will be any accidents.

The breakfast shop downstairs was indeed open.

On their way downstairs, they met several residents, all of whom were the ones they had knocked on yesterday. They greeted them warmly when they saw them, but as soon as Lin Xingxing was mentioned, everyone turned their face and ignored them.

Li Shiqi couldn't help but complain: "This game is more than one level harder than the last one I played."

It’s not that the mission is difficult. The mission description is easy to understand and the ideas are clear. The problem is that there are no clues.

Male college student Zhang Haolei deeply agrees with this.

When we arrived at the breakfast shop, there were quite a lot of people inside. The steaming buns, fragrant fried dough sticks, and hot soy milk made some of us, who hadn't eaten since yesterday afternoon, drool.

Just when they were about to sit down and enjoy their meal, a problem arose -

They have no money.

Nine well-dressed people stood in front of the shabby breakfast shop, looking at each other, silently asking what to do?

The boss seemed accustomed to this situation.

"No money?"

They nodded repeatedly.

The boss smiled and pointed out a way for them: "This is easy to handle. Our community is a harmonious and friendly big family. We will not watch people starve to death."

The boss's solution was to let them go to the residents' homes to help.

"There are many old people living here who refuse to move out. Their children don't come back often to visit them. There are many things they can't do because of their old age. If you go and help, you can earn some money no matter how much, so that you don't have to worry about having no money for food."

The boss smiled kindly: "They are old, and although they have strange personalities, they love to be lively. You young people love to listen to gossip, so talk to them more and treat it as a way to relieve boredom."

Gossip?

This word is easily associated with certain secrets.

Everyone's eyes lit up. There is always a way out. The game finally gave a clue.

The boss continued to offer benefits: "You look kind and are all good kids. I'll give you credit for this meal. When you earn money, just come and settle the bill."

Su Yu was the first to thank him: "Thank you, uncle. You are such a nice person."

Others also hurried to express their thanks.

The boss cheerfully invited them in to sit down, and smiled especially happily at Su Yu: "What a pretty girl, are you still in school?"

Su Yu nodded obediently: "I'm a sophomore this year."

"Oh, you have to take good care of your body." The boss gave Su Yu an extra tea egg and said, "This is for you for free."

Su Yu was very considerate and peeled it open and took a big bite: "It's delicious, uncle, how come you are so good at cooking? If you sell breakfast in our school cafeteria, the cafeteria will definitely be so crowded with students that there will be no place to stand."

The boss smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits: "Of course, this skill of mine is inherited from my ancestors."

"The buns are delicious, better than any buns I've ever eaten. The soy milk is sweet, too. It must be hand-ground. It's fragrant and smooth. Uncle, I want to live here and never leave."

The boss's face was full of wrinkles with joy. He waved his hand and waived Su Yu's bill without asking her to buy on credit. He also happily invited her to come over for lunch for free at noon.

He also owns the lunch shop.

Others were amazed: ...This is also possible?

Su Yu brushed off the dust on the corner of her clothes, with a calm expression, indicating that the [Ghost-Seeing Love Halo] was really useful.

However, she soon realized a problem. If this halo is useful to the boss, then doesn’t that mean the boss is also a ghost?

A bolder guess is that all the people in this building are ghosts?

After the meal, under the introduction of the breakfast shop owner, everyone dispersed and followed the residents back home.

Su Yu took a sip of soy milk slowly: "I will go back after talking to my uncle for a while, you guys go quickly, I will wait for you at home."

The others understood that she was trying to get some information from the boss.

"Then be careful on your own."

Su Yu ate her breakfast leisurely, using the method of exaggeration to make her halo shine to the fullest, and then gradually got to the point: "Uncle, have you been selling breakfast here all the time?"

The boss sighed: "Yes, I have been selling it for more than 20 years."

It was getting late, and customers had left the breakfast shop one after another. The shop looked much emptier, and the large patches of charred marks on the walls were very eye-catching.

Su Yu took a quick glance and continued to ask, "Then you must be very familiar with the community."

"Of course." The boss puffed out his chest proudly, "I'm not bragging, I know who lives on each floor here, what their personalities are like, and whether they're easy to get along with."

Su Yu's eyes lit up: "What about the 6th floor?"

The boss paused for two seconds and laughed: "Well...why are you asking this?"

Su Yu blinked: "My brothers and sisters and I live on the sixth floor. I want to know if the neighbors are easy to get along with."

The boss's eyes changed slightly: "Which room do you live in?"

"603 and 604."

The boss's face turned even worse and he hesitated, not knowing whether he should tell her.

Su Yu realized that there was something wrong, and her voice became softer and more harmless: "Uncle, it's okay, I can accept it, just tell me directly."

The boss hesitated for a moment and whispered, "These two rooms are unlucky."

Su Yu was startled. Although she had prepared herself mentally, her heart still skipped a beat when she heard these words. She was thinking more:

How come both rooms are unlucky?

Damn landlord, such a black-hearted landlord!

The boss whispered, "These two rooms are cursed. Anyone who lives in them will either die or go crazy. It's very weird."

Su Yu felt sad when she thought of the ghosts in the room.

"What about 601?"
