Infinite spooky game

Chapter 6 Rose Manor ([-]) Late Night Visitors and Time
Keith was awakened by the sound of footsteps.

When he opened his eyes, he heard the bell outside the door strike three times gently.

It's three o'clock in the morning.

He woke up within a second, and immediately placed his right hand on his left wrist, counting the seconds with his pulse.

When awakened from sleep, it is easy to have a vacuum period of unknown time, inexplicably violate the rules, and fall into danger.

Fortunately, Qi Si responded in a timely manner and did not make a move.

The sound of footsteps came from above the head. It was light and delicate, like the tapping of wooden crutches, or like dancing steps on tiptoes. It sounded faintly in the ears, and it was as uncomfortable as ants crawling on the heart.

The second rule flickers slightly on the system interface:

[After 9:00 p.m. is the rest time, please try to stay asleep]

The problem is that even if he was already asleep, he was woken up by you... Qi Si said silently in his heart.

He listened with bated breath.The footsteps upstairs were obviously different from Miss Anna's footsteps.

The voice was lighter and trembling, giving people the impression that they would lose their footing and fall down at any time.

Not Miss Anna, is there someone else on the third floor?
Who will it be?Is it a ghost or a living person?
Qisi subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Lin Chen beside him. This guy was still breathing evenly, he was very dizzy and was not woken up. In a sense, he was really lucky.

Qi Si raised his hand and touched his face, feeling a little moved.

Do you want to try to knock yourself out tomorrow?
The footsteps above the head sounded again for a while, and stopped abruptly without warning.

About half a minute later, a burst of footsteps at the same pace came from the direction of the stairs.

Things from upstairs came down.

Zeiss held his breath and stared in the direction of the door with his eyes wide open in the darkness.

He made sure that he closed the door tightly and locked it, but who knew that what was outside did not comply with the laws of physics...

The sound of footsteps lingering in the corridors, approaching and going away, seems to be looking for something, but it is unhurried, like walking aimlessly.

The sound stopped somewhere, and then, there was a knock on the door in the silence, and the soft and slow "knock" sound drifted between the floors.

If Qi Si remembered correctly, it was the door of Room 1 where Ye Zi and Zou Yan lived, which was at the diagonally opposite corner of his room.

The two girls were probably asleep, and the knock on the door was like a mud cow falling into the sea, without causing any ripples.

The thing outside the door knocked for a while, but when there was no response, it finally let out a long sigh and gave up.

The sound of footsteps sounded again, but turned around. This time, as if there was a target, they moved from far to near in a few seconds, and stopped in front of Qisi's room door.

"Knock knock knock."

The familiar knocking sound fell on Qisi's door, and the frequency was the same as the previous one.

Knowing that the thing in the corridor, whether human or ghost, was only one door away from him, Qisi remained extremely calm.

He carefully sat up on the bed, trying not to make too much noise.

Bursts of rich floral fragrance condensed in the air, and there was a rustling sound between the cracks of the door, as if something had squeezed in forcefully.

Qisi turned the bracelet on his right wrist, and the cold blade popped out and was held between his two fingers.

"Knock, knock, knock." The thing outside knocked on the door three more times, and then stood silently for a while.

Finally, there was no response, the footsteps gradually faded away, and the strange noises between the cracks in the door stopped for an instant.

In the darkness, Qi Si's eyes narrowed into a narrow line, and he breathed long and lightly, almost blending with the silence around him.

Sure enough, in the next second, the footsteps that should have gone away suddenly turned back.

Impressively, he killed his carbine.

"Are you asleep?"

A woman's voice sounded outside the door, soft and slender, vague as a dream.

It sounded like Miss Anna's voice, but it was a bit distorted, giving people an indescribably weird feeling.

Qi Si's eyes were dark and backlogged, he pursed his lips, and the thin sweat from his fingertips soaked the blade.

"Are you asleep?" asked again.

The situation is now clear. Staying awake at night undoubtedly means danger, but I don't know how the danger will come and whether it will break into the door unreasonably.

From beginning to end, Ziss had been counting the seconds in his mind, so he can still accurately tell the specific time - 27:[-]:[-] in the morning.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the ghosts outside the door could not attack him directly.

"You didn't sleep, did you? Let me in, okay?" "Miss Anna" outside the door said softly, with a persuasive voice.

Qisi glanced at the rules on the system interface and stopped at the fourth one.

[4. Don't refuse Miss Anna's request, try to satisfy everything she asks, Miss Anna hates disobedient guests]

To meet Miss Anna's request, do you really want to open the door and invite her in?
However, is it really Miss Anna outside the door?

[5. Miss Anna likes to wear red skirts. Miss Anna wearing a red skirt can be trusted; if you see Miss Anna wearing black clothes, please try to keep a distance from her]

There is not even a cat's eye on the door of the guest room, so how can you tell what color Miss Anna is wearing outside the door?

The violation at dinner can be justified by saying "the law does not punish the public". Still violating the law now is almost equivalent to saying to God, "I want to die, don't save me."

Qisi touched his chin and thought for a while, then decisively decided to continue pretending to be dead.

After all, the person outside the door was clearly requesting. How could requests and requests be confused?
And doesn't "trying best" itself mean that you can do it or not?

Ziss believed that his logic was flawless and reasonable.

He got off the bed with bare feet, and walked towards the door step by step in the dark, so that even if the door was suddenly broken open from the outside, he could deliver a blow in time.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't make too much noise, and the sound of deliberately lowered footsteps was completely covered by the rustling outside the door.

After waiting for a long time for a response, Miss Anna's voice became sharper, and she screamed loudly: "You are not asleep! I know you are not asleep! Open the door, let me in!"

The door panel made the sound of nails digging into the wood. Zeiss could imagine how Miss Anna was lying on the door, scratching angrily.

But this also confirms one thing: Miss Anna cannot enter the room without the player's permission.

Qisi felt much relieved, and even found the digging sound on the door particularly pleasant.

Wanting to get in but not being able to get in, being powerless and furious outside the door, just imagining such a scene would be interesting.

"You still don't see me... why? Why?"

Seeing that Qi Si's door could not be called open after all, as if giving up, Miss Anna's voice was pleading: "Please, let me in, please? I just want to take a look at you..."

Keith: ...

"Let me see you, I miss you so much... please..."

This voice was extremely humble, like a resentful girl who couldn't love her, crying like complaining.

What kind of script is this?
Qisi, who had always been calm before, had veins twitching in his forehead. This sudden episode made him have some crazy thoughts.

Then it offended his mental cleanliness, which made him feel sick.

Fortunately, Miss Anna did not continue this script for too long.

After tossing and talking to herself for a while, she sighed faintly and muttered to herself: "It seems that I really fell asleep."

After saying that, light footsteps sounded, walking towards the last door.

Then, there was the same knock on the door...

Keith exhaled lightly, but didn't relax for long.

In the direction of the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a whistling sound of wind that seems real and unreal.

Even though the windows were closed tightly, the voice came straight in.

An alarm bell rang loudly in his heart for no reason. Almost without thinking, out of instinct, Qisi turned around and threw himself on the big bed, closing his eyes tightly.

The moment he hit the bed, a gust of wind from nowhere blew the curtains open, and the stool that was pressing the curtains fell to the ground with a bang.

Qiss felt a line of sight falling on him as if it were substantial, licking every corner of it stickyly.

He kept his breathing steady, as if he was really asleep.

He pressed the blade into the bedding with his fingertips and remained motionless.

The door key in the chest pocket was faintly hot, and lines of text were refreshed on the system interface in the void.

[Name: Key to Room 3]

[Type: props (copies cannot be taken out)]

[Effect: When the holder is in the corresponding room, other existences cannot forcibly enter the room without the holder's permission]

[Remarks: Guests should also have the right to be alone, which is polite; of course, except when the host is extremely angry]

The sight outside the window stayed for a full minute, and finally moved away reluctantly.

A sigh floated in the night wind, seeming disappointed and helpless: "It seems that I really fell asleep..."

When Qi Si heard this familiar line, his eyelids twitched slightly.

He couldn't imagine what would happen if he was found awake.

In the darkness, he silently opened his eyes a crack, and through the wispy moonlight, he vaguely saw the back of a woman outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The long black dress was dragged to the ground, and the whole body was embedded in the sea of ​​roses, like an ink mark.

It's Miss Anna!
At the same time, you can hear the knocking on the door of Shen Ming and Chang Xu's room No. 2, unhurried and never stopping...

　In fact, I have been thinking about tricks for the whole time before I wrote it, but I felt that it would be easy to mess up the first dungeon, so I regret to stop.
