Chapter 1 Living Room Hole

“Tomorrow, all Xia citizens are asked to pay attention to any channel that can receive information.

All media broadcast channels will broadcast important global announcements at 12 noon tomorrow. All citizens are requested to watch on time. "

"There will be a major announcement at 12 o'clock tomorrow."

"Latest news, tomorrow..."

I watched several videos in a row with this kind of information.

Zhuang Cai looked at the short video entertainment software in his hand, exited it, and clicked on the chat software.

Various group chats are all discussing this important announcement.

It has been discussed for several days, and there are all kinds of strange conjectures.

"What information is so important? It's been publicized for a week, so it won't be revived, right?"

"Did you find aliens?"

"Did you find the beast-eared girl?"

"This is good."

"If I find out, I'll rush right in!"

Seeing the chat gradually becoming crooked, Zhuang Cai turned off his phone helplessly.

"It's just the important things anyway. Who cares."

He muttered something and scratched his belly. Zhuang Cai stood up from the bed. My stomach made a growling sound.

I checked the time on my phone.

23:21

What? It's almost 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, and the time flies by too fast.

But fortunately, he doesn't need to go to work, so it doesn't matter.

Put your phone aside.

Staring at the dark ceiling.

Feeling the emptiness in my stomach.

very hungry.

After lying silently for more than ten seconds, Zhuang Cai turned over and got up.

I started looking for food in the room, but all I found were some packaging bags that had not been thrown away.

"The stockpile is gone."

Order takeout or go to the tuck shop to buy something?

Before I switched to this, I would definitely order takeout, but I haven’t been out for a long time recently.

While thinking, he drank the last sip of water from the water bottle.

Get dressed and come to the living room.

Just as he was about to turn on the light, his feet suddenly became empty.

Did he miss out on his own home?

Zhuang Cai couldn't help shouting as he suddenly stepped on the air.

"what!"

He only had time to scream before he fell straight down.

Zhuang Cai never thought that a hole would appear in his own home, in his living room!

Before his head could react, he felt he had fallen into a pile of thatch.

He quickly sat up in the haystack. He hurriedly pulled out the thatch on his head.

"What's going on? What happened?"

At this time, his mind was full of doubts, and he was a little confused, and he couldn't understand what was happening now.

I couldn't help but look up at the top of my head.

A round hole appeared above his head.

The diameter of the hole is about one and a half meters, and you can see the ceiling of your living room through the hole.

The light that had just been turned on caused white light to shine from the entrance of the cave to where he was now, as if encountering a beam of light cast from the mouth of a well.

"I fell downstairs?"

This was his first thought. He lived in an old-fashioned building. There are only 7 floors in total, and he lives on the top floor.

Such an idea was immediately dismissed by him as soon as it came up.

Because it's impossible, it feels too weird no matter how you think about it. After all, he has lived in this house for a year.

By the light, he looked around.

This is a four-sided closed room, and the floor of the room is covered with thick thatch.

The thatch was unusually dry, but still had a slight musty smell.

It shows that there is still some slight humidity here.

The air was filled with a dull smell that had not been ventilated for a long time.

Although there was light from the hole above the head, the area around this place was still a little dark, and only walls could be vaguely seen on all sides.

Zhuang Cai stood up, patted the thatch on his body, looked around, and scanned the circle.

No windows or doors were found.

"Suck, breathe..."

After taking a few deep breaths, Zhuang allowed his nervous and confused brain to cool down and calm down his emotions.

Everything happened so suddenly that he was a little panicked, and his brain couldn't think at all now.

After calming down, sort out the situation based on the current situation.

"I was in the living room of my home, and fell downstairs...in an unknown room in the middle of the night." The initial idea was abandoned in an instant.

Because no matter how you look at it, you know that he couldn't have fallen downstairs, and the round hole above his head doesn't look like something cut out normally.

As he spoke, he looked towards the top where the light source came from.

Thinking of the videos I saw recently, bad thoughts suddenly appeared in my mind, but I suppressed them immediately.

Turn your attention to your surroundings and the present situation.

"You can clearly see your living room."

After standing up and measuring the height, Zhuang Cai could infer based on his height that the distance from the circular hole at the top was about 4 to 5 meters.

Based on the surrounding situation, I definitely wouldn't be able to get up.

Unless you can jump two to three meters on the spot, which is obviously impossible.

He got up and stepped on the thatch pile to the wall, looked at the wall carefully, and finally stretched out his hand to touch it twice.

"It's not cement, it actually has the texture of stone." As for the specific thing, he didn't know, but he could only get a brief answer.

After touching around, I found that this place was completely closed, and not even a seam was found.

"Call the police first."

No matter where you are, if you are in a situation like this, you must call the police first, otherwise you will not be able to get out.

Fortunately, I had to go out, so I was dressed neatly except for my shoes.

He took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket.

What comes into view is the no signal sign in the upper right corner of the phone, and the WiFi is no longer there.

Seeing this situation, Zhuang Cai frowned.

Clicked the call button and made an emergency call that I had never made before.

However there was no signal at all.

The emergency call still didn't work.

It’s over.

Something is terribly wrong.

At this moment, Zhuang Cai's nervousness began to spread.

Take a deep breath and calm down. He began to analyze the current situation.

Without any tools, the distance is too high to go back.

The entrance to the cave to go home is obviously right above his head.

And there is a closed room around it.

His thoughts were getting more and more confusing, and they were already starting to affect his judgment.

Force yourself to calm down and start analyzing the situation.

Enclosed space, no food, no water.

Thankfully there is light.

Zhuang Cai raised his head and started to sniff gently in the direction of the hole.

The more I sniffed, the more I felt the problem was getting bigger.

Because he didn't smell the fresher air, even if he sniffed the surrounding air carefully, he still had the dull smell that just fell.

This is the case in such a dull room with such a big skylight overhead. It stands to reason that if you sniff gently or take two deep breaths, you can clearly smell the fresh air coming from it.

In other words, although this thing looks like a hole.

But it may not be as simple as a hole, because it isolates the inside and outside.

It's like... clear glass.

Is it possible that the bottom can see the top, but the top cannot see the bottom?

Then wouldn’t it be over for you?

Involuntarily thinking about the worst, Zhuang Cai stood up directly, shook his head, patted his face to wake up, and suppressed the thoughts in his mind.

Forced to turn your attention elsewhere.

After all, this is something strange that has never been seen before and does not exist in reality.

"Maybe this is my opportunity?"

He could only comfort himself in this way.

Anyway, this isn't the first time I've encountered something like this.

Feeling a little better, I started to judge my own state.

"A little hungry, but not thirsty."

There is obviously no water here, which means that I conservatively estimate that I can only last about a week at most.

People can only last 5 to 7 days without drinking water, and those with better physical fitness can extend it a little longer.

He thinks that his physique is not bad, and he has gained some fat due to the past year, so he should be able to persist for about 7 days.

So who will discover that he is missing?

parents? It doesn't exist here or before.

Even if a friend cannot contact him within a week, he will not feel that he is missing. Whether he will be contacted or not is still a question.

Zhuang Cai looked around and prepared to think of a way to save himself. This was not going to work.

First of all, we can only explore this place first.
