Why is my time traveling to the second dimension such a weird rule story?

Chapter 30: A new round of investigation begins

Gao Hai did not talk for too long.

Regarding the first round of exploration that only he remembered, he only roughly mentioned some of the investigations and explorations conducted by Zhen Fei and him, as well as the two of them being trapped in the room on the third floor, and finally the girl being killed by the frozen corpse.

Gao Hai did not say anything about blocking the bullet in the end, but just these things he had said had already changed Zhen Fei's expression a lot.

"It is really hard to imagine that we were caught in a room by a strange black hand, and in the end, was I killed by the corpse in my room? The guy frozen in the refrigerator actually has that ability..."

The girl took a deep breath and didn't know what reaction she should show for a while in the face of what Gao Hai said.

After all, according to the other party, he saw his own death process with his own eyes. Although it sounds unbelievable, Zhen Fei's worldview has been completely updated now, so she will not doubt that Gao Hai is lying.

However, that kind of thing sounds really desperate. Everyone died, and the aunt turned into a monster that would not die even if a gun shot through the head, and then she died before him. How did he insist on finding the wall clock and completing the backtracking when he experienced such a thing?

"Takahashi... Well, if you don't mind, I will call you Haijun, okay?"

After thinking for a while, Zhenfei looked up at Takahashi and spoke softly.

"Of course, as long as you don't call me Gao Nut or something, Shijo-san."

Takahashi nodded lightly without caring, and then the other party reached out and slapped his palm again.

"Just call me Zhenfei."

The girl's brown-purple pupils seemed to flash a little at this moment.

"Since we were comrades-in-arms who shared life and death, it's okay to call me more intimately. Just call me Zhenfei, Haijun."

Grinning, revealing slightly sharp tiger teeth, smiling confidently.

Zhenfei stood up, stretched out her hand and patted Gao Hai's shoulder gently, then turned her head to look at the door of the living room, and walked in with Shinomiya Kaguya.

"It's time to prepare for the second exploration."

Shinomiya Kaguya's tone was flat, as if she had just come here, instead of waiting outside the door for a while and eavesdropping on the conversation between the two before coming in.

Of course, Kaguya didn't choose to eavesdrop for some boring reason at this time, but after getting the second rule sheet yesterday and speculating many things, she couldn't help but start thinking about what Gao Hai's identity was, and in connection with the red and white stains on his body, she began to think of some not-so-good directions. For example, Gao Hai is actually a dead person, just disguised as a living person, so she wanted to secretly observe Gao Hai's various behaviors in daily life.

However, based on current observations, these thoughts of hers should not be true, and there is no need to worry too much.

"Ah, just in time, Shinomiya-san, there is something I think is better to say here. I found that I seem to play a special role in this apartment. Well, it seems a bit strange to say this, but I think... maybe my identity is actually the corpse of 204."

Then Gao Hai said seriously, and Kaguya's calm expression on her face almost broke on the spot.

A few minutes later, in front of the hole in the kitchen of 206, Gao Hai jumped down first and landed in the water below.

The shoes that had finally dried were wet again. Gao Hai originally thought about whether to go into the water without shoes, but considering that this was a complex indoor environment, there might be a nail hidden somewhere under the water, so he finally decided to wear shoes.

It's just that it's really uncomfortable, the feeling of water in the shoes.

"Be more careful."

Mahi said seriously in front of the hole, while Kaguya on the other side was finally checking the rope tied around Gao Hai's waist, which was connected to the kitchen on the second floor with various things such as bed sheets and quilts in each room.

Unlike yesterday, only Gao Hai went down for today's exploration. Zhenfei and Kaguya stayed at the hole in the second floor and the kitchen door. Sun Dajun and Green stayed in the living room. The former brought some small wooden cabinets from other rooms and tried to saw and disassemble these wooden strips to see if they could make a simple ladder. The latter was responsible for dialing the clock when necessary to prevent the worst situation from happening.

The reason why only one person was chosen to explore, and Gao Hai, who had the strongest resistance to various mental erosion and pollution, was mainly because after studying the second rule table yesterday, Kaguya, Gao Hai, and Zhenfei all believed that if more people were sent down to explore, once one person had a problem, in the bad environment downstairs, it would be very likely that all the explorers would be wiped out. And considering that the rules do not allow light and can only move in the dark, except for Gao Hai, Kaguya, and Zhenfei, the others would basically lose their ability to move if they went down, so the decision was made to let Gao Hai act.

"30 minutes. We will keep a count here. After 30 minutes, we will pull the rope once. After you pull the rope, you will pull it once in response. Then we will wait for 10 minutes. If you don't come back within 10 minutes, or if you don't respond after we pull the rope, we will immediately reverse the time."

"If the first exploration can be completed successfully, I will go down for the second time, and then the real concubine will go down for the third round. With a cycle of 40 minutes, try to ensure that everyone has enough energy to conduct exploration and investigation. Therefore, as the first As an explorer, you have the most important responsibility here, and you must not force yourself.”

Kaguya explained Gao Hai seriously. Unlike Zhen Fei, she was more indifferent, but also more rational. At this time, she had devoted all her thinking ability to the current exploration, and her attitude towards Gao Hai had also changed slightly. .

However, perhaps this subtle change was also due to the true concubine's trust in Gao Hai, which made her more willing to pay more attention to Gao Hai. After all, Shinomiya Kaguya herself is the result of a twisted chaebol education with strict hierarchies, so it is difficult to guess her personality changes and psychological thoughts.

"Then, I'm off."

Gao Hai finally made a scissors gesture to Zhen Fei, then took steps forward and started to move forward.

Open the kitchen door and step into the gloomy living room.

Crash--

As he moved forward, the cold water surged up.

This dark living room did not change much from yesterday, but this time Gao Hai wanted to explore more carefully, so he got a little closer to the altar table placed in the room and tried to investigate the offerings on the table. What is it.

The table itself was full of stains and signs of decay, and the statue enshrined inside had also been severely corroded.

But even so, Gao Hai could still barely see that it seemed to be a kind-hearted female statue holding a child in her arms.

Send a child to Guanyin?

Gao Hai himself does not believe in gods and Buddhas and does not know much about this aspect. But he still knows some of the characteristics of the statues of gods and Buddhas. For example, the ear structure of this sculpture is a very classic image of wide ears. The platform under the statue looks a bit like a lotus platform, plus it is shaped like holding a child. , immediately reminded Gao Hai of the belief in Guanyin.

Do you want to pray for children by placing this statue in your home? Speaking of which, is it appropriate to offer deities like Guanyin at home? Hmm, maybe it’s time to cram in some folklore?

Gao Hai, who was thinking wildly in his heart, did not touch the decayed statue, but turned around and walked towards the door of the living room.

He noticed again that there seemed to be a figure with a drooped head sitting on the sofa not far from him.

Thinking of the things mentioned in the code, he didn't think much about it. He just opened the living room door pretending not to see it, and then stepped into the darkness ahead.

From here, the amount of light coming into the kitchen reaches its limit.

He had to move in absolute darkness and move forward without being able to see his fingers.

call……

Gao Hai could feel that his breathing was getting heavier.

It's okay, it's okay.

Instead of worrying about encountering something in the dark, it's better to move forward in one go. Isn't it just a little darker? There is nothing to be afraid of! Damn it, it feels like I am setting a flag by saying this. It feels really unpleasant.

Crash--

Gao Hai continued to move forward, taking steps forward, stepping into the darkness of the corridor little by little.

Then he heard voices coming from behind.

From the room he just walked out of, there suddenly sounded what seemed to be a man's voice saying something.

[If you don’t raise a daughter, you will suffer if you raise a daughter. I have already suffered once, and I can’t suffer anymore. Bodhisattva, please bless me to have a boy, but you can’t let my family’s incense be cut off! 】

There was a hint of emotion in the man's voice.

It seems that at the same time, the sound of children screaming and the sound of women sobbing softly can be heard in the room.

Crash--

Gao Hai just pretended not to hear these sounds, held the wall with his hands, and walked forward.

Crash--

The sound of legs wading through the water spread in the darkness, seeming to somewhat obscure the sounds in the room.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!

But then, Gao Hai heard another voice from behind.

Following the sound of his wading, there was the sound of another person's footsteps wading in the water.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!

Someone walked out of the living room and followed him without saying a word.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!

In this dark corridor, the two people marched one after another in silence, and they could only hear the sound of two wading in the water alternately.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!

Gao Hai, who was walking in front, could hear the voice slowly approaching, gradually closing the distance with him.

Ten steps, nine steps...

Gao Hai could even feel the water coming from behind and the touch of his calf breaking apart.

Crash--

There was a moist feeling on the wall where the fingers touched, like traces of moss.

The footsteps behind him were approaching again, so close that Gao Hai felt that the other person was just one step away behind him.

Crash--

The sound of water flowing in the next moment was only the sound of Gao Hai wading alone.

It seemed like it was just an illusion, as if the person following him didn't exist.

call……

Until Gao Hai felt a slight breath blowing on the back of his neck.

Chapter 31: Are you really alone in the dark?

call--

A sound so subtle that it is almost imperceptible.

And the cold air blowing on the back of the neck.

At this moment, Gao Hai felt as if there was someone lying on his back. Someone was sticking closely to him, with his head lowered, breathing one after another.

Could it be an illusion?

Or is there really something lying on you?

There is no longer any light in sight.

At this time, Gao Hai had reached absolute darkness where he could not see anything.

Crash--

The cold water made a splashing sound as he moved.

The breathing behind him followed closely, without missing even a step.

Where are you now?

Gao Hai, who couldn't see anything, couldn't help but think this in his heart.

The coolness on the back of my neck seemed to gradually become more noticeable.

What can be heard in the ears is still the unchanging sound of water.

Crash--

Then, the calf seemed to hit something at this moment.

Something floating in the water, large in size but not too heavy.

The thing swayed slightly due to his touch, and it seemed as if a finger was brushing against his calf, but he couldn't be sure whether it was true or false.

Gao Hai ignored it and just continued to move along the wall.

Crash--

He stretched out his hand and placed it on the damp wall.

My feet continued to move in the cold water covering my calves.

How long is this corridor?

How long will it take to reach the end?

Gao Hai didn't expect that he would become irritable so quickly.

He felt as if every breath he took in was filled with cold air, so cold that his entire throat seemed to freeze.

Crash--

The sound of water flowed, one after another.

This time, something seemed to be walking past him.

The person passed by slowly, almost passing by, but could not feel any movement except for the sound of footsteps, as if the person did not exist.
