Chapter 37 Stylist
Did he finally go crazy after eating poisonous mushrooms?
Yan Xun watched Su Yumin's outburst with a subtle expression, truly unable to understand how this person could act like he had a split personality, sometimes speaking in a strange and sarcastic tone, and other times being all smiles and gentle manners.
But if this person is willing to be a thug, he naturally won't stop him.
To prevent a phone from malfunctioning, Li Wu and Shen Rui also contributed their own phones, attaching them to Yan Xun's coat.
Yan Xun felt like she had become some kind of outdoor adventure livestreamer.
Shortly after the group discussed it, a new message suddenly appeared in red lettering in the living room—
Now, those of you in your rooms, please go to the management office to collect today's food.
Only one person is allowed to go at a time.
Do not talk to your neighbors when receiving food.
Yan Xun looked at the third item that had suddenly appeared.
"Don't talk to the neighbors?" he repeated the third point, looking at the "neighbors" in the room.
"You mean the other people in the Meimei Building?"
Shen Rui didn't go to the management office yesterday and doesn't know the situation there. "Are there many people?"
“There were only three of us,” Yan Xun said. “We encountered a fake person in the elevator, but before we reached the management office, the security guards took us away.”
At this point, Yan Xun began to suspect that the dungeon was making things more difficult for them.
After all, he learned some of the information from the flip-flops yesterday.
Of course, no matter how they think about it now, it's just meaningless speculation. After confirming the plan again, Yan Xun and the others left room 1101 separately.
……
Yan Xun walked to the tightly closed entrance of the Meimei Building.
For some unknown reason, the glass doors were completely covered with newspapers, seemingly to prevent people inside the building from coming into contact with something outside.
He approached the glass door and pressed his ear against it.
All that could be heard were some giggling and laughing sounds.
Li Wu was in the emergency exit on the first floor. Yan Xun and Su Yumin were also standing in two different positions. After hearing Shen Rui's voice and the loud slam of the door, Yan Xun walked towards the management office gate.
Perhaps due to the influence of the fake man, there was no one in the public areas of the entire Meimei Building.
Perhaps it was due to poor lighting, or perhaps it was because the door was covered with newspapers, but Yan Xun still felt the light was dim. He glanced at the door covered with newspapers again before quickly walking towards the management office.
When he arrived, he immediately saw Su Yumin and the open gate of the management office.
The two exchanged a glance and then entered the management office.
This small space is no different from what I saw yesterday.
Yan Xun glanced at the other door in the room, walked over quietly, tried to turn the doorknob... and then pushed the door open.
……
Inside the door is where the old man from the management office takes a break.
There was only a narrow single bed, and the room was filled with daily necessities such as an electric fan and a television. In the corner, there was a stack of newspapers, which looked like they were going to be sent to a recycling station.
There is a booklet on the table where the TV is placed.
Yan Xun opened the booklet and found that it contained photos and information about some residents.
508: None
504: None
Next to 508, there were traces of the photo being torn, while the photo in 504 probably hadn't been torn off yet; the photo on it was of the green-haired man he had seen before.
Yan Xun quickly found his own room, 404.
The above is a photo of him and Gui Yuchong.
Then there are 908 and 1101.
The room was empty, and all the photos had been torn up, a testament to the room's occupant's passing.
There were still many rooms left, so Yan Xun could only try to capture as much information as possible through the camera on his chest.
Su Yumin then turned on the television in the room.
Unlike the televisions in their rooms that couldn't receive a signal, the televisions here could broadcast many programs.
At that moment, a variety show was playing on TV... Yan Xun, who was taking photos of the roster, felt someone poke his shoulder. He looked up and saw Su Yumin pointing at the TV screen.
He glanced at the television and then froze on the spot.
There was some kind of fashion variety show on TV, and they were inviting a stylist to do the styling for the celebrities.
He spoke eloquently, styling clothes for the artists.
The other person's hair was clearly styled, perhaps for fashion purposes; the top half was black, and the bottom half was bleached platinum blonde. He had pale skin and looked somewhat aloof, but when he talked about things that interested him, he was very confident.
—He has a face exactly like Yan Xun's.
Yan Xun frowned and took the remote control from Su Yumin's hand.
He changed several channels and finally confirmed that the program was not pre-recorded.
Su Yumin's phone started vibrating incessantly; it was a call from Shen Rui.
They immediately realized this was a warning signal, so even though they wanted to confirm more information, Yan Xun and Su Yumin had no choice but to leave temporarily.
As soon as the two left the management office and hid in the emergency exit, they heard Li Wu's voice and two footsteps—
“I just went to the management office, but there was no one there,” Li Wu said as he walked. “If you were leaving temporarily, you should have put up a notice at the door.”
The old man didn't say anything, but just walked quickly towards the management office.
When he and Li Wu stood together at the entrance of the management office, the old man stopped.
He looked down, bent over, and carefully examined the doorknob.
He was very, very old, so old that you would wonder why such an old man would work as a building manager.
The elderly man, with droopy eyelids, turned and glanced back at Li Wu, "Just now..."
"A mouse has come in."
He muttered, "Looks like we need to get rid of the rats in this building."
……
When Yan Xun went to the management office, the old man gave him an extra look.
"Is this all the food you have?" Yan Xun seemed oblivious to the old man's gaze, only looking at the food in the shopping bag. "Less than yesterday."
The old man sat on the stool. "It'll be ready soon."
"Wait until all the fake people disappear."
"The building will be able to reopen."
The shopping bag hung on Yan Xun's wrist, and he looked somewhat impatient. "Isn't this all up to you to say it?"
"We have no signal, so we can only wait."
The old man remained silent, as if he had already seen what Yan Xun was like.
Yan Xun muttered a few more words, and finally had no choice but to leave the management office. Just as he left, Su Yumin came in from outside.
"Tsk." Yan Xun impatiently took a step back, letting Su Yumin go in first.
Su Yumin nodded at him without saying anything.
After Su Yumin entered the management office, Yan Xun came out of the door and ran quickly towards room 1101.
