The Novelist Forced to Become Famous

Chapter 37: Weird new mission

Views:

The room labeled 202 is the laundry room.

There were several industrial washing machines, dryers and disinfection cabinets in the room, and a long pool. The pool was blocked on the inside, and black sewage filled most of the pool.

There is a hook near the door with a note on it: Key.

But there was no key on the hook.

"The key must be in the pool." Jiang Baiyan covered his face. "It was like this last season. The most important clues were hidden in the place where you least want to touch them."

Han Bo asked, "Use a mop?"

"Where is the mop?" Jiang Baiyan asked.

The two boys were silent.

Jian Jing had watched the show last season and silently took out a pair of latex gloves from her jeans pocket: "Do you want them?"

"Oh, yes, great." Jiang Baiyan was overjoyed and quickly took it. He and Han Bo each shared one. "Let us do this job. Thank you for your hard work, teacher."

Jian Jing: "...little water ghost."

Jiang Baiyan: “??!!”

He looked at her palely and said weakly: "Teacher Jingjing..."

"I'm sorry." Jian Jing turned her back, afraid that she would laugh.

Han Bo: “Hahahaha.”

Jiang Baiyan: "Hello."

The air was cheerful for a moment.

However, no matter how much you laugh, you still have to do the work.

Han Bo and Jiang Baiyan fished in the sewage pool for a long time and were frightened countless times: they touched a soft yellow eel, a lifelike fake hand, and a disgusting object that was indescribable...

In short, Jian Jing was very glad that it wasn't her.

After going through a lot of hardships, I finally found the keychain in the sewer.

The guest room door can be opened.

The first room we entered was 201. However, there was no luggage in the room. The bedding was folded in the closet. There were spider webs in the four corners of the wall. There was no sign that anyone had lived there.

According to the information in the registration book, room 201 should be one of 204, 207, 209, 210, and 212.

‌One is 203.

The moment I pushed open the door, a white shadow quickly passed over the roof. I couldn't make out its exact appearance, and only a faint image remained on my retina.

"Oh my god!" Han Bo was frightened and sat down on the spot again.

"Damn it!" Jiang Baiyan did the same and shrank back behind Jian Jing.

Jian Jing: “…” She covered her chest and let out a long breath.

She didn't see the ghost clearly, but she was frightened by the screams of the two people one after another, and her heart was throbbing, probably up to 100 times.

After a moment's pause, she pushed the door all the way open: "No one lives here."

This is a single room with a bed, a wooden chair, and a wooden cabinet, all painted red, and the decoration style is extremely old-fashioned. A skeleton is lying on the bed, and the clothes on its body have faded. It can be barely seen that it is a printed dress.

There is a suitcase in the corner.

Jian Jing opened the box, which was filled with women's clothing from many years ago, a pair of leather shoes, and a few lipsticks in a small cosmetic bag.

"You have to get the register," she said, "otherwise it's hard to tell who is who."

The two boys agreed, and everyone walked again and successfully got the registration book in the lobby. When they went back upstairs, they heard screams from the restaurant.

Comparing the information in the registration book, we can see that there are three female residents, one living in a room with her husband, and two living in a room alone.

"There's a lipstick mark here." Jiang Baiyan had sharp eyes and quickly discovered that there was a faint red mark left on the signature on the last line.

Jian Jing said, "This is room 211."

203→211

‌One is room 206 which is opposite.

This time everyone was well prepared. After opening the door, they moved to the sides and made sure that no one was about to kill them before they carefully looked through the door.

A cold wind blew in my face.

Jian Jing shuddered, goose bumps covering her arms. An indescribable chill swept over her body, like a wandering snake or insect, finally settling in her abdomen.

Her stomach cramped and the skin around her waist felt cold, so she subconsciously reached out to touch it.

In the pocket of his overalls, a marble sat cold in his palm.

[System: Triggering a special copy, a new task has been released]

[Task name: Seven Stars***]

[Mission Description: This is a historic ** hotel, which hides secrets related to death. The dead ** has not been found yet, and the **** is calling you unwillingly. You...]

[Task rewards and penalties: determined based on completion status]

Jian Jing: [thousands of confused faces.jpg]

A special copy? The task name and content are coded? Why do I have a bad feeling? Is there something fishy in this copy

She shuddered and her hair stood on end.

"It's so cold." Jiang Baiyan looked around, "No one lives here either."

There were two bodies in the room, one large and one small. Judging from their clothes, they should be a father and son. But the child was too young to be registered, and it was impossible to tell which room they were in just from the registration book.

"A handbag." Han Bo opened the bag and took out a hardcover notebook, a children's water bottle, half a pack of cigarettes, and a cheap wallet.

They compared the information in the registration book and found that the room fee for 206 was 20 yuan more, and the room fee for 205 was 5 yuan more.

Jiang Baiyan found a menu on the bedside table that listed the charging standards: "The toiletries set is 20 yuan each, this should be it, 206."

206→206.

Jiang Baiyan said: "Teacher Jingjing, let's go find one."

Jian Jing nodded absentmindedly.

‌One target: 205.

Once you master the reasoning, identifying the room number is not difficult.

Jiang Baiyan and Han Bo felt the excitement and almost forgot their fear. Through the differences deliberately created by the program crew, they quickly figured out the real room numbers of each room.

205 → Empty room

208 → 205

207 → Empty room

210 → Empty room

209 → 203

212→208

211→202

Laundry Room → 201

Combined with the previous reasoning: 201→empty room, 203→211, we get a new map.

Laundry room..206..205... ... c..208..201

a... ... 211... b..stairs..d..203..202

In Room 201 (the original laundry room), they found graffiti left by residents recording the order of their room numbers.

7 and 8 are not adjacent; 3 and 4 are not adjacent; 9 and the adjacent room have the same lowest common divisor; 7 and the adjacent room have the same characteristics, but they are not odd or even; 10 and the adjacent numbers are consecutive.

209 has the same least common multiple as 206, 203, and 212, and the only adjacent numbers are 203 and 206, so d or the laundry room is 209. If the laundry room is 209, a is 210, d is one of 207 and 212, and c is one of 204 and 212.

Try substituting several possibilities, and you will find that: if d is 207, b can only be 204 or 212, and there is no similarity between the numbers; if d is 212, b is 207, and they also have no commonality.

Therefore, 209 is d, a or b is 210, a is 210, one of the laundry room and b must be 207, but 7 and 6, 7 and 11, 9 do not have the same characteristics, so it is overturned. b is 210, one of the laundry room and a is 207, 7 and 11 are both prime numbers, so it is correct. The remaining 204 is either the laundry room or c.

204 appeared in the register and was the guest room. It was confirmed that C was 204 and the laundry room was 212.

The correct room number is as follows:

212..206..205... ... ..204..208..201

207..211..210..Stairs..209..203..202

"Ah, I almost died." Jiang Baiyan leaned against the wall, "The math problem is really complicated."

He debuted early and studied for his high school courses whenever he had time during filming. Because of his good memory, he could memorize the subject content quickly and his grades were pretty good, but math lagged behind.

"Fortunately, I don't have to learn advanced mathematics." He said with a lingering fear, "Teacher Jingjing, advanced mathematics must be difficult, right?"

Jiang Baiyan habitually passed on the topic, but found that Jian Jing was distracted. He paused, turned around and asked Han Bo nonchalantly: "Have you learned it?"

"No." Han Bo naturally continued the conversation, and the two chatted about college life.

Jian Jing heard nothing, her eyes remained on the map. Just now, when she was searching, the marbles in her pocket suddenly became extremely cold when she entered certain rooms, but there was no such phenomenon in the room.

Now that the correct room number has been sorted out, a surprising fact has emerged.

The places where the marbles became cold are rooms 201, 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, and 207. There is nothing unusual in the rooms after room 7.

Why is there such a coincidence

What is the secret that has not been discovered

Unfortunately, the arrangement of the program greatly confused her vision and she could not discern any effective information from it. It was not realistic to stop the filming now, so she could only wait until the recording was finished.

Jian Jing pondered for a moment, then came to her senses and said, "Let's go to Room 204 and look carefully this time."

The other two gave an OK sign.

After determining the target, the copper coins were not difficult to find. Jiang Baiyan found the copper coins stuck in the gap of the top layer of the cabinet, and their group's mission was completed.

At this time, the trio downstairs also found three copper coins in the hall, kitchen and dining room. Together with the ones found in the living room toilet, they got a total of 5 coins.

The six of them got together, went to the toilet, ate snacks, drank water, put on makeup, and explained their previous actions to each other.

But Jian Jing had no intention of chatting, she was distracted frequently and didn't talk to anyone. The others were all shrewd people, they could see that she was abnormal, they just thought she was dissatisfied, they were too lazy to indulge her and turned a blind eye.

How could the program crew miss such a controversial performance? They edited it a bit and released it all.

After it was broadcast, it really went viral.

Barrage 1: The newcomer is too ignorant, favorability -10086

Barrage 2: Who does she think she is, giving such a look

Barrage 3: I am just tired. I don’t want to talk when I am tired.

Barrage 4: She is the only one who is tired, but others are not tired, right? Look at them, they are dedicated.

Barrage 5: To be honest, the setting is really unfair, there are 4 on the first floor and only 1 on the second floor

Barrage 6: We are all a team, there is no need to distinguish who contributes more and who contributes less

Comment 7: Those who go to the second floor signed up on their own, who can we blame

Barrage 8: emmm, I have to say something about the people behind the scenes. Everyone has wrongly blamed the new girl. I won’t spoil the details. The behind-the-scenes footage is better to watch with news reports.

Barrage 9: Holy shit!! I watched it, it was really f*cking awesome! I got goosebumps!

Barrage 10: I don’t want to jump. Is there anyone who can explain what’s going on

Barrage 11: Apologize to the new lady, damn it!

Barrage 12: Oh my god, seeing how ignorant they are...

Barrage 13: The news video showing the re-release of the video is really scary. The young lady should have discovered it at that time.

Barrage 14: She actually cooperated and finished the shoot, and I fainted on the spot

Barrage 15: The new guy is awesome! How did you find this out?

After resting, the ignorant crowd went to the backyard.

The backyard of the hotel looked like an ordinary rural yard, with a chicken coop in which many chickens were pacing back and forth, looking very proud.

Cai Tong'er burst out laughing: "There are actually live chickens. Didn't they say they had been abandoned for a long time?"

"Seeing may not be believing. This may be the ghost of the chicken that was eaten." Han Bo joked.

The others burst into laughter.

The next segment was the essence of a reality show, with a group of celebrities doing everything they could to snatch the key from the rooster's neck.

Some people were pecked by chickens, some people stepped on chicken shit, and some people were chased by hens.

After a lot of fuss, not only did he get the key from the chicken, he also unexpectedly found a toy in the chicken coop that was very similar to the last symbol in the clue.

"This is called Treasure in a Cage. It's an intellectual toy. You can't get it out by force, just like the Nine Rings Linked Together." Cao Yu asserted, "The last one should be here."
