………………
Luo Jun frowned.
Because the final seventh rule was also added by handwriting, which obviously contradicts the fourth rule.
The situation in the corridor occurred again. With Mr. Yuan's explanation last night, Luo Jun knew that this should be a game between two forces in the hotel. One party made the rules, and the other tried to change the rules.
But after last night's verification, Luo Jun believes that the revised rules also have a certain effect, and it is best to ensure that no party's rules are violated.
For example, now, with so much food in the restaurant, you don’t have to eat meat. Thinking of this, Luo Jun was somewhat glad that when he was just feeling hungry, he instinctively chose pancakes instead of grabbing the chicken legs next to him.
Wait... Luo Jun's eyebrows moved. Don't eat meat. Maybe he meant more than just the meat on the plate... He walked out of the restaurant and looked at the front desk.
Just now at the front desk, he saw a roasted chicken knocking down a roasted suckling pig and chewing on it. Now that he thought about it, it must have been a hungry human who lost his mind and bit another human being. This horrific sight like a zombie crisis should probably cause riots.
However, everything is business as usual at the front desk now, tourists are going through the formalities normally, and there is no sight of the murderer or the deceased, not even any blood stains.
Is it my hallucination, or is reality distorted by mysterious power?
Luo Jun didn't know that when hunger struck, he did have the urge to eat people. Don’t eat meat, does this mean?
While analyzing, the feeling of hunger struck again. Luo Jun quickly returned to the restaurant and began to choose non-meat foods to fill his stomach.
"belch……"
Luo Jun, who had eaten and drank enough, patted his belly with satisfaction and looked at the time, nine forty-five.
There are still fifteen minutes left before check-out.
Luo Jun thought for a while and came to the snack area in the meal area.
Here he found Animal Crackers.
It was the same as the one bought in the vending machine before, a matchbox-sized, transparent plastic package, containing a piece of exquisite animal crackers... Although in Luo Jun's eyes, these unfamiliar animals were called monsters. More relevant.
Although according to the rules, he was about to leave the hotel, Luo Jun was still slightly uneasy. It was too weird here, and there were too many mysteries yet to be solved, which made him completely unsure of what was going to happen next.
He doesn't know the logic behind the rules and simply follows them. If an unexpected situation occurs, he has no way to deal with it... Of course, most people will think that these messy rules have no rules or logic at all. , but Luo Jun vaguely felt that he was about to catch the truth behind it.
The breakthrough point is these animal cookies.
The rules in the corridor specifically mentioned this thing. Not counting the handwritten ones in the restaurant, there were only six rules in total, and two of them mentioned it, so there must be something special about these cookies!
Luo Jun casually turned over the cookies on the plate. Suddenly, his eyes moved and he raised his hand to pick out a bag.
The cookies in this bag are human-shaped!
One head, two eyes, and one mouth, the shape is very delicate and lifelike.
According to the rules, this cookie should be ignored. But Luo Jun feels that it is not that simple to list this kind of thing separately...
He closed his eyes, concentrated his energy on the sea of consciousness, and then relived his experiences since entering the hotel.
With his current mental attributes, coupled with the blessing of vitality, his memory and concentration are far beyond ordinary people.
The places I’ve been to, the monsters I’ve encountered, the rules I’ve seen… what’s the connection between them?
Suddenly, Luo Jun opened his eyes and breathed a little faster.
"Could it be that……"
He made a bold guess, but he was not sure. If he guessed wrong, he might be doomed...
No... Even if that guess is true, there is no need to verify it. It is at best a hidden mission. As long as you can check out normally, you don't have to take this route... but if there is a problem with check out, this is the way to go!
Thinking of this, Luo Jun looked at the human-shaped cookie in his hand.
Better find a way to get this thing out of the restaurant!
The third rule of the restaurant is that it is forbidden to take food out of the restaurant. If you are caught, you will be responsible for the consequences.
That means that as long as you are not discovered, everything will be fine!
The point is, how does a restaurant determine if I’m hiding food?
Just as Luo Jun was thinking, a rapid siren suddenly came from the door of the restaurant!
Luo Jun turned around and saw a little boy standing at the door of the restaurant with a piece of cake in his hand. He seemed to be frightened by the sudden alarm.
The waiter at the door of the restaurant turned around and gave the child a gentle smile.
"You can't take food out." As she said this, she narrowed her eyes, and her gentle smile looked a little weirder.
The words were spoken in a gentle tone, but to Luo Jun's ears, they were as cold as the north wind in winter.
This is not an illusion, but a certain kind of mental coercion that can only be experienced by Luo Jun, who has strengthened his spirit and perception.
Commonly known as, murderous!
The child cried loudly, and a couple immediately ran out of the restaurant, picked up the child and walked back. As they walked, they apologized to the waiter: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the child is young and ignorant, and I caused trouble."
Seeing that the child was brought back to the restaurant, the waiter looked away, and the murderous aura disappeared.
Luo Jun breathed a sigh of relief. He believed that if the parents did not bring their children back to the restaurant in time, the waiter would definitely put his murderous intention into practice.
However, this also helped Luo Jun confirm that the way the restaurant discovered the food was contained was the alarm device at the door.
It’s similar to the ones in ordinary shopping malls, surprisingly simple.
But how was that thing discovered? The child was holding a half-eaten cake with no packaging and no barcode. How did the alarm identify it?
After all, this is a strange world. There should be supernatural means so that food can be identified... But in this case, the third rule is superfluous. Since it says "if discovered, there will be consequences at your own risk", which means that , there must be a way not to be discovered!
Suddenly, Luo Jun's eyes lit up and he put his hand into his trouser pocket. There was a bag of biscuits inside, which I bought from the vending machine in the corridor last night!
Just now, Luo Jun briefly left the restaurant to check on the situation at the front desk, but the alarm was not triggered!
This means that food purchased from vending machines will not trigger the alarm. Luo Jun took out the bag of biscuits and observed them carefully. He found that the packaging was slightly different from the biscuits on the plate.
I bought it from a vending machine, and there was a small silver dot on the packaging bag.
Is it because of the packaging that this dot can block detection?
Luo Jun used his body to cover himself, carefully opened the packaging bag, took out the biscuits and put them on the plate, then took out the human-shaped biscuits and stuffed them into the packaging of the vending machine, pinched the opening with his hands, and stuffed it into his trouser pocket.
At this time, the announcement sounded in the restaurant.
"It's now nine fifty-five. The restaurant will be closed soon. Guests are asked to leave as soon as possible."
The guests at the table got up and walked towards the door one after another. Luo Jun was also among the crowd, putting his hands in his trouser pockets and holding the opening of the biscuit bag tightly.
Ten meters, five meters, two meters...
Passed!
Luo Jun successfully walked out of the restaurant without triggering the alarm!
really! Luo Jun was very excited. This method was effective, which meant that his idea was right!
The food in the restaurant can only be taken out in the packaging bags of the vending machine. The only snacks in the vending machine are animal crackers, and there are no human-shaped animal crackers in the vending machine!
Two coins were found under the vending machine. A pack of animal crackers only costs one, so the other one is used to take out the human-shaped cookies from the restaurant!
Luo Jun felt that he was getting closer to the truth. At this time, the hands of the clock had just passed ten o'clock and he could check out.
Luo Jun looked at the direction of the elevator, hesitated for two seconds, and then walked to the front desk.
It was his first time to experience a mission, and surviving was his primary goal. Hiding the truth behind the mission was secondary. If you can just check out and leave, then it’s not a risk.
Be steady and don’t waste your time!
After warning himself like this, Luo Jun came to the front desk and activated the secret dice with a thought.
“Checked out successfully and left.”
"Ding, this event is an inevitable event and cannot be determined using dice. The number of times is consumed once."
Another inevitable event? Luo Jun was slightly startled. Does that mean that it must either succeed or fail?
However, he checked out normally and left. Luo Jun couldn't think of any reason for failure.
"Hello, check out, 0315." He had to try anyway, Luo Jun proposed to check out, but he was cautious.
"Okay sir." The beautiful front desk lady showed a professional smile and started to operate the computer: "Wait for us to confirm the room."
"Okay..." Luo Jun nodded and glanced outside the door. If everything went well, he would be able to leave this damn hotel and return to his own world in a few minutes.
"Sorry sir." came the voice of the front desk lady, "We found that one of the chairs in your room was damaged and we need to pay for it."
"Chair?" Luo Jun was stunned, and then remembered that he broke it by beating the little girl monster last night.
"Uh..." Luo Jun said awkwardly, "But I didn't bring any money..."
"We don't charge money." The waiter showed a twisted smile: "You just need to hand over your..."
"liver!"
Luo Jun's hair stood on end!
