I work as a housekeeper in Guilou

Chapter 13 The First Dog Leg Competition

"I should be the one asking you, what do you want from me?"

Xia Qimiao was operating on the Guilou panel without raising her head.

Sun Buchou seemed extremely afraid of her and would not look for her when there was nothing wrong. He probably waited outside her door for a long time before he was so bored that he used his head as a racket.

Moreover, he asked himself if he was short of tenants as soon as he came up, which obviously meant something.

"Oh, there were a few monsters wandering outside the building after you left last night, but they left quickly. I was thinking that if you are short of tenants, then I will lure them here tonight."

Xia Qimiao followed his words and imagined a scene of a strange creature peeking inside the building, and moved her hands.

She raised her head and looked at Sun Buchou: "How did you get in?"

"I was about to break up at the time, so I don't remember clearly. It should have just... floated in like this." He raised his hand and imitated the waves and moved it twice, then clenched his fist and punched it hard. "After I came in, it suddenly had an entity, bang. It fell down with a sound."

Seeing the worried look on the poster's face, he quickly added: "I didn't feel any restrictions or obstacles. If there were any before, it was definitely not my fault. I swear on the balance of my source power!"

There's big trouble.

She tried to find out before that she couldn't leave the mysterious building, thinking that it was an independent space, but Sun Buchou's presence here proved that it was not.

She didn't want to be ambushed by monsters when she came in, so she looked at the mysterious floor panel again to see if there was any defense mechanism.

After unlocking the guest area, the system releases a new task: increase the comfort level of the guest area to 1000 (current progress is 0.02/1000).

The chandelier and sofa are unlocked rewards. The two together only provide a comfort level of 0.02. It is indeed a dead-end game, and the two decimal places are enough.

Now the comfort level is dropping, down to -2!

what happened?
  She looked up at the door and spotted the culprit.

"Owner--" Lin Jiangdan came in with a half-person-high painting. She changed her clothes without knowing where, and there was no trace of disembowelment at all. "It's nice to see you again."

"Although you said it was not necessary, your appearance has been deeply engraved in my mind. I couldn't help myself, so I made a portrait of you."

Xia Qimiao didn't want her true face to be seen by the monsters who would move in later. She was about to refuse, but Lin Jiangdan moved quickly and straightened the painting before she spoke.

She thought she would see some horrific scene, but in fact, in her eyes, there was only a superposition of black and red colors, and no human form could be seen at all.

Very abstract, and seems to be a bit impressionistic? She wasn't sure, but she was certain that she really didn't have any artistic appreciation.

Although the painting was easier to accept than she expected, she glanced at the comfort level of -2.

"There is a lot of room for improvement, take it back." There is room for improvement from negative to positive.

Xia Qimiao thought Lin Jiangdan would be disappointed or angry when he heard her words, but she was not and remained happy and respectful.

It seems that there is no difference between criticism and appreciation to her, and her evaluation is her highest honor.

"Okay, host, I will definitely try my best to create a work that satisfies you."

Xia Qimiao set her sights on the goal of 1000 comfort levels and drew a pie for her: "If you do a good job, then I can consider hanging your painting here."

Her smile grew brighter and she added a series of compliments.

Next to him, Sun Buchou was dumbfounded. He thought that him coming to report was a bad thing, but he didn't expect that there were experts and even got the promise of the original poster.

No, he couldn't lag behind, so he also changed to an honorific. “Old Master, I think it is necessary to check the origin of those strange objects. Please leave it to me. I will definitely give you an answer that satisfies you.”

Xia Qimiao didn't know why he was so active, but she would not let go of the labor that came to her door: "Go ahead."

Sun Buchou was overjoyed. The host said to him "go" instead of "get out". This was a big step forward for him, so he went out happily.

Xia Qimiao's eyes followed him and saw him disappearing into the white mist, leaving only three lines of words rising and falling, which was weird and funny.

Lin Jiangdan also left, repeatedly promising that she would work hard before leaving.

Xia Qimiao shrugged. She didn't understand how someone could rush to find a job for themselves and be so active. Maybe all monsters love to work?
  As long as they don't create trouble for her, she won't care.

Xia Qimiao found a gray panel [store], and her eyes lit up.

You must know that the game does not open a store to players, and the way for players to obtain props is very single, only dungeon settlement.

She clicked on it and it showed that it required level two to unlock it, and she also needed to unlock the lobby area.

She calculated her resources and found that she had plenty, so she invested in it.

The elevator is included in the lobby and is also generated.

Its display floor slowly dropped from 18 to 1, and then opened the door in front of Xia Qimiao, as if inviting her to enter.

After waiting for a long time, it closed the door. First it rose to the 18th floor, and then descended. Suddenly, as if the control failed, it suddenly fell to the minus 18th floor at a free fall speed, making a loud "bang" sound, and then warned. The lights started to flicker.

After Xia Qimiao unlocked it, she returned to the exclusive area. The sound insulation was so good that she didn't hear any sound. Even if she heard it, if the panel didn't indicate any abnormality, she would just pretend she didn't hear it.

Gou is the number one way to survive.

Guilou successfully upgraded to the second level. Xia Qimiao clicked on the store panel again, but unexpectedly it still failed.

[You have less than three tenants and cannot unlock the store, please continue to work hard~]

Another set up.

Didn't the system think that it would fall into an infinite loop - "The ability cannot be enhanced - the tenant cannot be found - the store cannot be unlocked - the ability cannot be enhanced..."

Without a feedback mechanism, Xia Qimiao could only complain in her heart. She couldn't wait for the tenant to fall from the sky, so she exited the mysterious building, walked back to the old road, and went to find the tenant in the dungeon.

The game has a time limit. You can only enter the instance from 0:00 to 1:00 in the morning every day. It is exactly 0:00 now.

She glanced at the dormitory where the lights had been turned off. The other two people had already gone to bed. The faint light from the outside world slipped in through the cracks in the curtains, and then passed through Xia Qimiao's bed curtains, giving her some comfort.
