Infinite Room Escape

Steaming hot air emerged from the water in the bathtub, creating a misty feeling.Su Zili soaked in the hot steam, let the warm water wrap his body, and his face was flushed by the steam.

He Xuan's immune buff is quite useful.

After such a short period of time, he felt that he had broken free from that weak state, and he could always perform a square dance for everyone to prove that he was in good health, and his waist was not sore or his legs hurt.

Then he noticed something that he hadn't had time to notice before.

For example, He Hyun actually put bubble balls in the bathtub.

——He probably doesn’t know how to use this thing. He threw three pink and white balls the size of a fist at a time, and they are now floating and spinning in front of him, and the white foam floats on the water with their rotation. .

Su Zili picked up his hand and smelled it.

Alas.

It still smells like roses.

It's too girly.

He looked around, and finally on the wall above his head, he saw a small white cabinet that was almost the same color as the wall, which should be used to store some sundries that should not get wet.He opened the cabinet, planning to find out if he could find the box where these bubble balls were placed and stuff them back, but what he didn't expect was...

As soon as the cabinet door was opened, the rubber duckling that had been in it for a long time fell down.

"Boom-"

Continuous number of sounds.

Five ducklings floated up next to the bubble ball.

Round head and dark eyes.

One of them was particularly ugly.

It's cross-eyed.

Su Zili scooped them up expressionlessly, intending to stuff them back into the cabinet.But looking at the mother duck in the cabinet, who was as stupid as the ducklings, he silently put the ducklings in a row, neatly placed on the edge of the bathtub.

It's all water, wait to wet the rest of the one inside.

After soaking, dry it and put it back.

Thinking of this, he turned around and went back into the bathtub, and rubbed himself carefully from head to toe.I can't do without rubbing. I don't know what kind of weird things were stained on the floor of the corridor before. It's okay to smell bad. It's also sticky and hard to wash. You have to soak it in hot water and rub it hard.

It was hard to wipe myself clean.

He encountered a new problem——

He didn't change his clothes.

Glancing at the clothes that were quietly lying in the laundry basket, Su Zili was sure that even if he put on this at the risk of being disgusted to death, He Xuan would drive him into the bathroom to rewash.

So he gave up the practice.

Open the door and call for someone instead.

"He Hyun?"

"Ah."

He Xuan's voice sounded at the door very quickly. Judging from the speed of his reply, Su Zili felt that he might have been waiting outside.This thought made him a little uncomfortable, but then he felt that he was thinking too much.

Didn't we make an appointment to have dinner?

Probably waiting for him outside, and his room is actually just a bedroom, a bathroom and a small living room that can be disguised as a study.It is normal to have guests waiting in the living room rather than in the bedroom.

"I didn't bring a change of clothes." The sound insulation in the room was not very good, and Su Zili could hear his own voice distorted after passing through the walls from inside, "Can you lend me two clothes? A T-shirt and pants are fine."

"I'll get it for you."

There were footsteps and doors opening outside.

Su Zili was a little bored waiting there, so he decided to open a gap to greet He Xuan in advance, he reached out and grabbed the door handle, and pressed it down—but didn't press it.

He was stunned.

He reached out and pressed it again.

Not moving.

Su Zili: "..."

What is this?

The door is broken?

Before he could think about it, should he explain to He Xuan that the broken door had nothing to do with him, he really just took a shower and didn't demolish the house inside.In the next second, the reminder failed, and the game, which had been silent for a long time, finally spoke again.

[Congratulations to the player for obtaining the virus immunity buff given by the advanced NPC He Xuan. 】

[Valid time: one hour. 】

[Unfortunately, the player did not escape the attack and was taken back to the opponent's home. 】

[It is detected that the player has not lost life. 】

[The game continues. 】

[Congratulations to the player who triggered the side mission and escaped from the bathroom. 】

[Please successfully escape from the bathroom secret room within one hour before the outbreak of the virus, the countdown officially begins, please hurry up. 】

Under the fluorescent blue six-day countdown that floated above his head, there was a red countdown that was one size smaller than it, and after flashing a three-two-one countdown, it began to jump.

Su Zili: "..."

Chamber of Secrets?

What are you saying again?

He took a deep breath, looked down at himself who barely wore a piece of fabric, turned around, and opened the bathroom heater first.Originally, my health was not very good, if I caught a cold again at this time, it would really be the end of my life.

Footsteps came to the door.

There was a knock on the door.

"Are you inside?" He Xuan's voice was a little puzzled and puzzled. He waited for a while, but still didn't hear a response, and then his voice was a little anxious, "Are you okay?"

"I'm very good."

Su Zili tried to find a few dry towels to wrap himself up, but these towels were not big enough, or his own pigeon was a bit too tall, so it seemed a bit nondescript no matter how he wrapped himself, he gave up helplessly after trying twice .

"Sorry, I was just looking for something."

He first apologized to He Xuan, and then He Xuan who was standing outside heard his calm voice.

"Excuse me, can I just tear down your door?"

Open the door?

He Xuan was taken aback.

Several question marks floated over his head.

After recovering, he didn't ask Su Zili why he opened the door first, but after carefully looking at his bathroom, he frowned slightly, showing a bit embarrassed expression.

"If you mean this wooden bathroom door that looks pretty thin."

"Sorry, probably not."

Can not be done.

It’s normal if you can’t, it’s your own house after all, it’s normal to feel bad and don’t want to destroy it.Su Zili didn't have the face to ask someone why he didn't want to demolish someone's house, but he just nodded and his eyes started to move around.

"Then I may have to stay in there for a while."

"Why don't you go to eat first? Just pack something for me, just bring anything, I'm not picky about food."

He Xuan put the clothes in his hand on the sofa next to him, then looked at the door and rubbed his forehead helplessly: "I didn't mean that, the main reason is that there are no suitable tools in the bathroom. When building here, the door and There is actually a layer of iron embedded in the walls, if you do it with bare hands, you probably won’t be able to dismantle it.”

Su Zili: "?"

Can you say that again?

What did you put in the door?

Iron sheets? ? ?

He feels that he doesn't understand your NPC's operations very well. Is the life in the secret room so terrible?It’s not safe to tear monsters with bare hands, and you have to build your own room like a fort at home?

Thinking of this, his voice was full of sympathy.

"Is the life of your NPCs so miserable?"

"Huh?" He Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly understood what he meant, with a smile in his eyes, he shook his head helplessly, "It's not what you think, the life of an NPC..."

He thought about it, and then made a definition.

"If you get rid of being thrown into the game from time to time and doing some dangerous and conscientious work, our life is actually quite comfortable." He thought that Su Zili might be interested in this, so he explained it carefully : "The game provides us with a community where we can live together. There are large supermarkets, amusement parks and some Internet cafes and other places in it, all for free."

"We are actually equivalent to the employees hired by the game. It provides everything we need in life, and we work for him. There is no salary, no five insurances and one housing fund, and no year-end bonus. It is actually quite miserable."

After finishing speaking, He Xuan waited.

Finding that there was no sound inside, I couldn't help knocking on the door lightly.

"Are you ok?"

"Good."

Su Zili summed up his state calmly.

"I'm just a little sour."

You have no salary, no five insurances and one housing fund, what are you doing?

We players even have to work hard to earn back the money for our own food and lodging!

And I can't go out yet, squatting in a small room every day, I can only watch the small games on the computer by myself, and occasionally look at the fake people on the window, to comfort myself that it's okay, I'm an otaku anyway.

Su Zili covered his face and rubbed his hands, and decided to devote his limited life to searching for ways to get out, and he couldn't be an emotionless lemon essence.The layout of the bathroom is very ordinary at first glance, and the space is so large that after a separate bathtub for soaking in the bath, a small compartment for washing is set up outside, separated by frosted glass.

Looking out from the bathtub, there is a washstand and a flush toilet on the opposite side. There are some daily necessities such as toothpaste and toothbrushes on it. A wall-mounted cabinet is made next to the washstand. The inside is just turned over. There are towels and some daily necessities.

Nothing unusual.

There is also a washing machine by the window.

There was a basket next to it, which contained his changed clothes.

Su Zili inspected for a while, but did not find anything unusual for the time being, so he prepared to take a shortcut and directly asked the owner here: "He Xuan."

There was a voice outside the door.

"what happened?"

"Do you have any other exits in this bathroom? Or do you have a spare key for the door? It doesn't matter if you put it inside or outside." As long as the door can be opened, it's fine, and he won't care about it if he wants to play games.

He Xuan thought about it carefully, then frowned slightly.

"I can't say," he said in a low voice, "this design has some key clues about this secret room. We can't tell the players about the game restrictions, even if it's a side reminder."

"That's it."

Su Zili's voice paused for a moment.

"Then I invite you to eat and read a book, or go to the bedroom to sleep. You don't need to pay attention to me."

He Xuan: "?"

He Xuan felt a little wronged: "Why?"

"Because you will distract me when you are outside," Su Zili said, "There is no other meaning. It is not good for you to waste time with me outside. It is better to go to your business first. If there is something, I will definitely be happy." You shouted, and there is nothing dangerous in your bathroom, don't worry about me getting into trouble in it."

He Xuan: "..."

He hesitated.

"This may not be..."

"If there are games involved, my bathroom is... quite unsuitable for human survival."

Su Zili: "...???"

What the hell did you do with this bathroom before? !

Why did it suddenly become unsuitable for human survival?

He sighed helplessly, and was about to start searching.

Out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly caught a glimpse of...

In the big mirror on the sink beside him, the other him suddenly turned his head and showed him a cold smile.
