Qi Zhu's figure froze for a moment, as he was brewing his emotions.

Two seconds later, Qi Jiu turned around, with a troubled and helpless look on his face: "I am a new employee. I wanted to go back to the dormitory after coming out of the cafeteria, and I met my companions on the way.

We were separated and accidentally got lost and turned to this neighborhood. I didn’t expect there was a door here..."

Through the lens, Qi Qiu looked at the girl who had appeared in his dream.

The girl's flaming red hair was unforgettable, and Qi Jiu quickly recognized her as the girl holding the cat in the photo in the factory culture exhibition hall - Miss Rossetti.

The adopted daughter of the Bates family.

For a moment, Qi Jiu saw a look of shock on Miss Rossetti's face.

She stood there and looked at Qi Qiu, motionless, with slightly confused and overwhelmed emotions in her slightly widened eyes.

Qi Chu even noticed that Miss Rossetti's shoulders trembled slightly.

Different from the fear shown by Mr. Lord when he first met Qi Kui, after the shock, Miss Rossetti showed a trace of imperceptible nostalgia on her face.

Judging from Miss Rossetti's strange reaction, Qi Jiu had to suspect that his dream at noon was real, and that Miss Rossetti had a close relationship with the doctor in the dream.

So...are you similar to that doctor?

If they just looked alike, why would I have such a dream? It felt like... I was him.

You can see what he sees and feel his emotions at that time.

There seems to be some inseparable connection between them.

But soon, the strange emotion disappeared from Miss Rossetti's face.

As if someone pressed the program switch button, she quickly returned to her expressionless face: "It's rest time now, no one can appear here."

"Especially new employees." Miss Rossetti emphasized, and she seemed to believe Qi Gu's reasons.

"I'm really sorry." Because of his good-looking appearance and the fact that he wears glasses in a polite manner, Qi Jiu's apology is always easy to accept.

Miss Rossetti teased: "It seems that Mr. Lord's training for newcomers was not done well."

"By the way, have you ever seen a gray cat?" Miss Rossetti asked, looking at Qi Qiu with a scrutinizing look.

Judging from the reaction of the little gray cat dodging just now, Qi Jiu guessed that the little gray cat did not want to fall into the hands of this lady.

So he shook his head in ignorance and asked doubtfully: "Are there cats in the factory? I remember that the induction manual emphasized that there are no cats in the factory."

Miss Rossetti frowned thoughtfully: "Well, I know that."

Qi Jiu: "If I see a cat, I will inform the security department as soon as possible in accordance with the regulations."

"You can contact me directly," Miss Rossetti said. "My office is in Room 109, Building 3, North District. If you have any information about cats, you can come and tell me."

Qi Jiu was very sensible and did not ask why: "Okay, I understand."

Miss Rossetti's office information was not marked on the map, so he opened the hidden character map.

"If nothing happens, go back quickly," Miss Rossetti said.

"Then, I wish you good night."

When Qi Ku left, Miss Rossetti sat alone on the black reef.

The last ray of skylight disappeared on the horizon, and darkness enveloped the entire turbulent and chaotic sea.

When Qi Qiu opened the door of dormitory 1079, Qin Rang immediately greeted him.

After he confirmed that Qi Kui came back intact, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Boss, you have been out for so long, I thought you encountered some accident, or your wounds worsened and you fainted..."

Qi Jiu looked at the time: "It took longer than expected. We encountered some unexpected situations, but fortunately they have been resolved."

Qin Rang quickly noticed that the corrosion marks on Qi Zu's neck had scabbed, and the color on his face had returned, and asked quickly: "Have you found a way to cure mucus burns?"

Qi Jiu smiled: "That's right, but there's still something I haven't figured out yet."

As he said that, he looked at Qin Rang, who had already changed into pajamas, and said, "Don't be in a hurry to go to bed. We have to go out before the lights go out."

Qin Rang, who was about to lie down and wait for night to fall, wondered: "Is there anything going on tonight?"

Qi Jiu: "It's the same action as last night, so I have to borrow your lucky points."

Qin Rang understood that Qi Jiu was asking him to steal things again, and he wondered: "But we still have a lot of paint and disinfectant, do we have to continue stealing tonight?"

"I won't go to Mr. Lord's office tonight." Qi Jiu said.

"Hey," Qin Rang was even more confused, "Where...are you stealing tonight?"

Qi Ku explained: "In the utility room, get some binding props."

*

With the blessing of Qin Rang's lucky buff, Qi Jiu could easily get the props he needed.

For example, tonight, they got a large bundle of strong ropes, anti-corrosion rubber gloves, and a pair of handcuffs from the utility room.

As for why there are such incredible things as handcuffs in the utility room, Qi Jiu has no idea.

After successfully stealing what they wanted, the two returned to the dormitory to rest.

Surprisingly, there was no power outage tonight. Just as the rules said, the dormitory cut off power on time at 6:30 pm.

The heating and air conditioning in the room is blowing loudly, keeping the indoor temperature stable at above 26 degrees.

Qin Rang, who learned about tonight's hunting plan, asked: "Do you want to turn off the air conditioner?"

According to the dormitory rules and regulations and tests conducted by Ji Xiaoye and the others, monsters will not come when the temperature is above 26 degrees.

Qi Jiu shook his head: "No, I'm afraid of the cold."

Qin Rang: "..."

Qi Ji: "The variable 26 degrees is known. Now we just need to control the variable and test more characteristics of the monster."

"To control the variables, we not only have to turn on the air conditioner, but we also have to turn on the heater like yesterday," he added.

Qin Rang suddenly realized: "So you want to test the hidden rule in the dormitory code by hunting monsters?"

Qi Juxiao: "The supplementary rules are only a small part, and we may be able to obtain more useful information."

Qin Rang nodded as if he understood. Although he was confused, he seemed to be very powerful.

So that night, dormitory 1079 not only turned on the air conditioner, but also turned on the heater. The whole room was so warm that there was no need to cover it with a quilt.

Around eleven o'clock in the night, the same strange sound as last night sounded——

"Crack, rub, crack..."

The sound came from far to near, and a strange damp smell seeped into the dormitory.

Although he had already experienced it once, human beings are naturally afraid of danger. Qin Rang immediately sat up from the bed as a reflex. His shoulders were so nervous that he straightened his shoulders and his breathing became rapid as the sound approached.

On the other side, Qi Qiu stared at the heater calmly for a moment. The firelight of the heater danced in the night, faintly illuminating the small dormitory.

Then he quickly lifted up the quilt on the bed, and at a safe distance where it would not ignite, Qi Jiu used the quilt to cover the light of the stove.

The light from the heater was quickly blocked by the sheets. There was no moonlight outside the window, and the room suddenly fell into darkness.

Almost at the same time, the weird "chuck" sound outside the window stopped, and the "tick-tock" sound like slime dripping continued.

Qin Rang was so nervous that he held his breath. He glanced at Qi Jiu, who was covering the light of the fire with a bed sheet. The other person put his index finger on his lips and gestured "Shh" to him.

After about three seconds, the sound of "click, click, click" sounded again, but the sound seemed to move in the opposite direction, getting farther and farther away from the dormitory door.

The "uninvited guest" seems to have lost track of the target and is leaving.

I see.

Based on what he saw from dormitory 1051 in the morning, Qi Zhu has determined that in addition to temperature, there is another factor that affects the monster's "visit" - the light source.

In addition to the temperature, Dormitory 1079 and Dormitory 1051 have another thing in common: they both lit stoves to keep warm last night.

In addition to bringing warmth, the heater also emits light.

The reaction the monster just gave seems to be very sensitive to light.

"System teacher, if I can't contact Mr. Lord, how can I confirm whether the unlocking rules are correct?"

[In special circumstances, you can enter directly into the system]

After the answer is completed, the system pops up the corresponding input box [You can inform the system through voice]

"Article 4 of the staff dormitory: "If you hear footsteps, please cut off the light source immediately. If you don't follow the instructions, you will be responsible for the consequences." Is my conclusion correct?" Qi Gu asked.

[Congratulations on completing the missing parts of the induction manual and unlocking 50 survival coins]

[The current number of remaining survival coins: 164; the number of survival coins to be transferred: 80; the total number of survival coins: 244;]

[Due to the special time period, this rule is temporarily only synchronized with roommates in the same dormitory. Other travelers will unlock the cracked information after dawn]

After the system informed him, Qin Rang received the unlocking prompt.

Other travelers can only see it tomorrow morning.

"It turns out it's the light source. How did you come up with it, boss? This is too embarrassing..."

Before Qin Rang finished speaking, he saw Qi Jiu lift up the sheet that blocked the light source of the fire, and the sudden firelight instantly illuminated the dormitory.

Through the light, he saw that Qi Jiu had prepared paint and disinfectant, and was wearing anti-corrosion rubber gloves on his hands: "Now that the rules have been clarified, it's time to do physical work."

He held a bundle of strong ropes in his hand and raised the corners of his lips, "It's coming anyway."

The uninvited guest who "comes all the time" has no idea what he is about to face.

When it saw the dancing firelight behind the window glass, it just followed its instinct and felt excited. It followed its instinct and followed the light source to the door of dormitory 1079, and then followed its instinct and slapped the door of the dormitory hard.

Everything was ready, and the excited monster was about to tear down the entire dormitory door and enter the room to enjoy fresh and delicious food, when suddenly——

There was a "click" sound, and the door was actually opened from the inside.

monster:"……?"

Qin Rang: "...boss you?"

Wearing rubber gloves, Qi Jiu skillfully arranged the rope: "I don't want it to dismantle the door again. The wind is very cold at night."

"Besides, the door is public property. If it breaks down every day, Mr. Lord will be unhappy." He added.

Qin Rang: "..."
