"Then are you considered a guest?"
When the Mirror Ghost heard Yin Zhu ask it this question, it immediately shook its head, completely forgetting that Yin Zhu couldn't see its actions: "Of course not. Under normal circumstances, I can't leave the temporary apartment, and the other ghosts are the same. We can only be considered employees, how could we be treated as guests?"
"Guests can be commodities, and you are also evil spirits, so why aren't you considered a guest?"
Yin Zhu really didn't understand the difference.
Jing Gui also noticed this and immediately became smug: "We died on the territory of the supervisor, but we were not completely dead. The supervisor granted us a second life through the rules. Therefore, all our value belongs to the supervisor who set the rules for us. No matter how much other supervisors covet us, they have to kill our supervisor first. Otherwise, under the constraints of the Sin City's rules, no matter how powerful they are, they cannot attack us."
His smug tone and words conveyed a sense of "So there are things you don't know, kid."
Yin Zhu nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly asked, "So even after he killed you, you still have to work for him like a 007?"
You simply don't understand—
The mirror spooked itself.
Yin Zhu genuinely didn't understand, but she didn't continue to provoke the Mirror Ghost. The relationship between the supervisor and the Ghost in question seemed to be closer than she had thought, and it was most likely due to the rules that the Ghost would have a Stockholm syndrome-like feeling towards the supervisor who gave it "a new life."
Not everything can be judged rationally, especially when encountering a world of strange and unpredictable rules.
Yin Zhu, who has adhered to materialism for more than 20 years, is very accepting of this. Since it is an objective phenomenon, even if it differs a bit from the objective existence of Earth, she can completely understand it.
Just like the Dragon Kingdom on Earth, which is based on atheism, it is because Earth truly has no gods.
That world of supernatural tales is indeed eerie, but to close your eyes and deceive yourself by saying "this is fake, this is fake" is simply overly rigid thinking and falling into the trap of idealism.
However, Yin Zhu didn't major in philosophy, so she only touched on these thoughts briefly. More than philosophical theories or psychological issues, Yin Zhu was more concerned about her new job.
If you offend the boss on the very first day, there's still a long road ahead. Won't the boss make things difficult for you every day?
Back in their new home, Yin Zhu and Jing Gui went to another room and brought back a mattress, setting up their sleeping area.
Finally, surrounded by a bunch of mirrors, Yin Zhu began to carefully analyze the rules to avoid any traps that might get her into trouble.
It has to be said that just looking at this scene, it gives off a strong feeling of a cult sacrifice.
...
"There are more than a dozen rules again, I can't remember them all."
"Someone took a screenshot of the live stream on the forum. I estimate that in another half hour, an expert will be able to analyze the loopholes in the rules."
"Am I the only one who feels that the think tank is useless? There are so many rules, and they can't possibly analyze them all and remind the chosen one. They only remind the chosen one when there is a critical mistake. But if this Yin Zhu dies, the next chosen one will still have to rely mainly on himself."
"The scene surrounded by mirrors has an eerie beauty."
"The Mirror Ghost is so cute, I want to cuddle with it!"
"Are you crazy? If Yin Zhu hadn't been able to control this thing, anyone else would have been scared to death by it. And you still want to stick it on?"
"If I knew it was harmless, I wouldn't be afraid."
"The Chosen One figured out that the anomaly couldn't kill people directly through its own analysis. If you went in, you'd probably be eaten before you could even figure it out. Stop being so wise after the event."
"If the chosen ones who go in don't feel fear, wouldn't they be invincible and kill indiscriminately?"
"You might be looking for: Pirate Kingdom's Chosen Ones."
The Pirate Kingdom mentioned here is a country famous for its pirates, but at this time it has become a forbidden zone on Earth. If it were just because the Chosen Ones died too quickly, then there would be nothing special about it.
However, the fifth chosen one who ultimately destroyed their kingdom was somewhat special.
Simply put, it means there is a problem with the brain, and the person lacks the ability to feel fear. In a professional sense, it would be described as "mucosal lipidosis," caused by the hardening and atrophy of the tonsils in the brain, resulting in a loss of judgment regarding fear.
This chosen one felt no fear and was unable to recognize the fear in others. He was unafraid even with a knife to his throat, which led him to fail to dodge danger in time. Instead, under the gaze of a monster with a strange smile, he threatened, "Go ahead and do it, or I'll kill you," ultimately losing his life in the bizarre world.
Live streaming websites were set up all over the planet, so that even though the Pirate Kingdom has been destroyed, people from other countries can still find recordings of their failures and learn from them.
While everyone was talking, Yin Zhu had already finished reading the "Tongfu Inn Supermarket Rules".
She stood up, patted her bottom, and waved to the ghostly figure wandering around in the mirror: "Come on, let's go to the temporary apartment first."
"?"
The mirror spirit tilts its head in confusion in its reflection.
Didn't you already check out? What are you going back for? Are you planning to release me? Although he was full of questions, in order to avoid Yin Zhu's words being too infuriating, Jing Gui ultimately only used his expression to express all his doubts.
"Of course, it's time for dinner!"
Yin Zhu said matter-of-factly, "Homeless people can stay in temporary apartments for half an hour. I don't have money for food right now, so of course I'll go back to mooch a meal! I observed this when I went to the restaurant, and they didn't have any rule against homeless people eating there!"
"...I may not be human, but you really are a dog."
