The players arrived in the Twisted City in the morning.
As time goes by, the sun in the sky shifts a little bit.
From morning, to noon, to afternoon.
Eventually it was pulled to the west.
The dazzling sunset glows like broken gold, splashing across the city.
It was approaching dusk and the evening rush hour had arrived.
The road is full of cars and people.
There is a lot of traffic and people.
If you don't look carefully, it is difficult to find any difference between this city and a normal city.
Players who enter this dungeon for the first time will probably mistake it for a normal world.
However, Nagase Taku, who was frightened by the loli at the beginning, found many things wrong during his wandering that day.
This seemingly normal city is actually full of weirdness.
It looked lively, but not many people spoke.
There are some places where there is clearly no one, but you can still hear the sounds of waves and cars driving.
It's as if an unknown being dubbed it.
If you go deeper into those shops and markets, you will find even more terrifying things.
The shop employees and customers all had a sense of disharmony.
Taku Nagase saw a gold shop with his own eyes.
Before the customer even reached the door, a salesperson had already bowed and walked into the store against the air.
The customers who walked by nodded at the now empty spot where the salesperson had stood before.
It's like responding to the other person.
Then he walked into the gold shop.
The actions of sales and customers are not synchronized, just like the sound and picture are not synchronized.
It's creepy just looking at it.
The whole world is like a program full of bugs.
What scares Nagase Taku even more is that every shopping mall and market, even every neighborhood and building has its own rules.
If you don't follow the rules, terrible things will happen.
Even those who live in this city will be attacked for breaking the rules.
After a day of wandering around, Nagase Taku's little joy of thinking he was the protagonist had disappeared.
He even began to miss the days when he was a fat otaku and a loser.
Even if I am trampled by the goddess and humiliated by the girl next door, it is better than living in fear here.
And being a fat otaku is not without its benefits!
Who knows one day a beautiful lady who always likes to take out the trash early in the morning in cool home clothes will move in next door.
Why bother struggling in this damn copy
Those monsters really eat people.
As long as the players violate certain rules, they will bare their fangs and tear the players to pieces or kill them directly.
Student boy is a typical example.
The loli looks weak and cute, but the scene of her eating people can definitely be described as horrifying.
It can easily bite an adult human into pieces.
Of course, if it doesn't break the rules.
Life here is just like in the human world.
There are various shopping malls, shops, restaurants, clothing stores, various factories and so on.
There are also various job postings.
If you are brave enough, you can find a job and probably survive six days.
The only problem is that these factories, restaurants, and even every building has its own rules.
Once you violate the rules of those stores, the consequences will be disastrous.
Taku Nagase had witnessed with his own eyes how a pork shop dealt with those monsters who did not follow its rules.
Yes, those rules not only restrict players, but also monsters.
As long as they don't break the rules, they can't attack.
Otherwise, you will become a target of hunting.
This city belongs to monsters.
It operates according to a certain order and rules.
Nagase Taku originally wanted to find other players so that they could huddle together for warmth.
It is really dangerous to engage in lone wolfism in a game like this.
And it's an extremely brainless approach.
If he could get out alive, Nagase Taku would definitely go back and severely criticize those novel authors!
It's no use killing someone without paying for it!
Lone wolves are too vulnerable.
If we stick together, it will be easier to find a scapegoat.
After all, Nagase Taku's awakening was a little late.
The fitness guy had already run away with the other players.
Forget about forming a group with them, we can’t even find them.
There was no chance for Nagase Taku to regret.
If it weren't for his innate insight being strong enough to allow him to see some information about the strange creatures, he would not have been able to carefully avoid those dangers and survive.
As for opportunities and great benefits, don't even think about them.
It is true that this is a copy world.
But this city has complete social rules, and those monsters are not the brainless NPCs in novels.
Apart from those weird details that don't seem like part of the normal world.
There is no difference between this place and a modern city.
If you cause trouble here, you will really have to pay the price.
Nagase Taku witnessed with his own eyes a monster being chased and torn to pieces by other monsters because of a crime.
This made Nagase Taku, who originally wanted to use the weapon to rob, immediately back down.
Those monsters would literally pull out his intestines and wrap them around his neck a dozen times.
Nagase Takuya soon realized that living in such a city for six days might not necessarily be a good thing.
He had to find a place to stay at night.
Tip 6: Please stay in a room with a door and walls at night.
The student boy who broke the rules may not have been fully digested yet.
Staying outside the house overnight, who knows what will happen!
Nagase Takuka had no intention of risking his life to test this rule.
He had to find a place to stay for the night!
The first solution: just find a vacant house.
This solution is easy to implement.
After all, he only needs to live here for six days, and as long as he doesn't reveal his true identity within these six days, it will be fine.
On the seventh day, he just ran away.
No follow-up is required.
Finding an empty house is also easy. You just need to enter a neighborhood and walk around to find the houses that don’t have clothes hanging on the balconies or sundries stored there.
Then walk up and look at the dust at the door to confirm whether there is anyone there.
Opening the door is not a difficult task.
I watched a lot of Nagase Taku's movies at that time. The types of plumbers and young women, and neighbor uncle and girl were very popular.
He felt that he was a rare talent, many times better than the fat guy in the movie.
If they can have such a romantic encounter, how could I not have one
So I happily went to learn the skill of door unlocking.
Just wait for one day, looking forward to a late night invasion and then a strong conquest.
Of course, movies are just movies, and reality is always cruel.
Nagase Taku finally realized that he was just an ordinary person.
Such a good thing will never happen to him.
But I still learned the skill.
It was not difficult for him to open a lock using the peephole.
This plan is quite good.
Taku Nagase was ready to implement this plan from the beginning.
He quickly found a community called Mingcheng Garden.
The imposing gate shows that this is a high-end residential area.
As soon as I walked in, I saw the notice at the door.
"Shanshui Garden Community Safe Living Rules"
The famous mountain and water city has a superior geographical location and a high rate of greening, and is the best residential community in the city.
So far, the owners who have stayed here have not given any negative reviews.
To ensure the owner's living experience and safety, please be sure to abide by the following rules.
1: The property staff of this community will carry a nameplate on their chest and wear dark red work clothes with the words "Worry-Free Security" printed on them. Property staff without nameplates or work clothes will be regarded as imposters, so please ignore them.
If you see staff wearing uniforms of other colors, you need to escape from them as soon as possible.
2: There are no stray animals in the community. If you see any stray animals, please do not disturb them. Report them to the nearest security personnel immediately and they will help you.
3: Unless there are special circumstances, please do not go out after 9pm.

8: If you see property staff in black uniforms trying to get you to register or do anything, refuse them immediately. If they refuse to leave, you can seek help from the property.
... ... ... ... ... ..
20: Black is evil, crimson is holy, and purple is malicious.
See the owner rules at the entrance of the community.
Nagase Taku was completely timid.
Bad things will definitely happen if you move in!
You might even get yourself involved.
In a neighborhood like this, it is not surprising to see a ghost in the middle of the night.
Taku Nagase eventually gave up his first plan.
He changed his mind and decided that finding a job with food and lodging provided and working there for six days seemed like a good option.
For this idea, he went to those shopping malls and shops again.
Every shop and mall has all kinds of weird rules.
After some selection, Taku Nagase decided to find a job as a security guard guarding a parking lot.
This job is simple and I thought nothing would happen.
As soon as he entered the security booth, he was scared away by a security code.
Security Code
Welcome to become the security guard of Qianda Plaza Parking Lot. Please abide by the following rules during work.
If you violate this code, you will bear all the consequences.
1: Please have enough respect for every parking guest. No matter what they are sitting on, do not comment and just complete your task.
2: The license plate color of the car entering the parking lot should be black. If you encounter a purple license plate, please contact your supervisor in time for help. If you see a red license plate, drive them away immediately. If they don't leave, there are guns in the security booth.
3: Please always check your nameplate and work clothes to make sure they are black. If they are other colors, please inform the logistics department in time and they will replace your work clothes and nameplate for you.
4: When outsiders enter the parking lot, please give them temporary admission tickets.
5: When patrolling the parking lot, do not act alone. If you find that your colleagues are missing and you are alone, please return to the security booth immediately.
6: If you notice that your colleagues’ uniforms and name tags have changed to other colors, please be careful of them.
... ... ..
14: Black represents justice, crimson represents corruption, and purple represents ill intentions.
After seeing this security rule, I felt the terrifying atmosphere of the parking lot again.
Taku Nagase eventually gave up the job.
This incident may very likely cost me my life!
Not cost-effective.
It’s not possible to get something for free, and it’s extremely difficult to find a job!
Nagase Taku was once in despair.
This kind of thing that can be easily solved by the protagonist of the novel becomes extremely difficult in his hands.
It seems that I am really not the protagonist!
However, Taku Nagase finally relied on his own brain to find a way in this strange city.
He studied the rules of the shops and roadsides.
I discovered a business that requires little effort, carries little risk, but offers huge rewards.
That is to be a beggar.
The threshold for this thing is low, and anyone who has watched the live broadcast a few times can do it.
After all, the core is the same, which is to pretend to be pitiful and ask for money.
Make yourself look a little embarrassed, hold a broken bowl, and knock on anyone you see.
The creatures looked like marionettes with their souls trapped in their bodies.
But when faced with beggars, they will still give some alms.
Using this method, Taku Nagase easily got some money.
At dusk, we found a hotel that looked pretty good.
Spending some money to sleep in a hotel is indeed a good idea.
“You are here!
"Standing in front of the hotel, considering whether to stay in for a night, Nagase Taku was patted on the shoulder.
Nagase Taku turned his head to look over, and suddenly a chill rushed from his spine to the top of his head.
I was so scared that I almost screamed.
The student boy who had been eaten before was now standing behind him.
He was wearing the clothes that had been bitten through, and there were still lumps of residual mucus on some parts.
Those eyes looked sinister, as if there was a monster hiding behind them, secretly spying on him.
"you!
"Nagase Taku's speech became unnatural.
My legs feel a little weak.
If he could escape, he would turn around and run away now!
But thinking of the prompt given by the system, he didn't dare to escape directly.
Once these returning dead find that their targets are different from themselves, they will immediately launch an attack.
You must not reveal any clues!
“You’re here too!
"Nagase Taku was about to cry in his heart.
Brother, I have no grudge against you, why are you haunting me
You killed yourself by pretending to be awesome!
You can't blame anyone else.
"Yes, are you going to check into a hotel?" the student boy whispered.
"If you want to check in, just go ahead." Nagase Taku said with forced calmness.
"We can do it together."
The student boy's face showed an expectant expression of a fat otaku inviting the little girl home to see his goldfish.
"No, no, I haven't thought about it yet." Nagase Taku said, "Don't pay attention to me."
"We have to stay together." The male student said, shaking his body uncontrollably: "We have to stay together."
The student boy suddenly approached Taku Nagase.
Don't you want to stay with me
Why
Why don't you want to stay with me
The sound continued to ring in Nagase Taku's ears, but it did not match the student boy's mouth movements.
The target is about to enter a rampage state, please be careful
A line of floating subtitles appeared in Nagase Taku's eyes.
It was his gift of insight that came into play.
"I'll go see how many rooms there are." Looking at the student boy who was about to go crazy, Nagase Taku had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk in.
He didn't dare to stay in the other person's presence anymore.
The other party is questioning frantically.
If he didn't answer, it would definitely provoke an attack from the other party.
If I answer directly, I’m afraid I’ll be swallowed up immediately.
This is the only excuse I can use to escape from the other person.
The hotel is very nicely decorated.
But as soon as I walked through the door, I felt a cold breath that made my hair stand on end.
A female front desk clerk in a bright red uniform stood behind the counter.
With a creepy smile on his face.
The staff member has a great figure and appearance.
She had beautiful curves, with a protruding front and a curved back, and the tight shirt was stretched to its limit.
Just looking at it makes people worry about the button that is under such great pressure.
It gives people the illusion that the button will break if you apply a little force.
The face is also very delicate, exactly the same as the popular internet celebrity face.
A face as white as snow and bright red lips.
When I saw it for the first time, it felt like a corpse.
Seeing Nagase Taku walk in, she bowed slightly and spoke loudly.
"Welcome."
Taku Nagase walked to the counter and found a list of check-in rules written on the counter.
Qiru Hotel Check-in Rules

... ... ... .
17: Black is evil, crimson is righteous, and purple is malicious.

Have a nice rest.
... ... ..
When he saw the first one, Nagase Taku's hands began to tremble.
He raised his head tremblingly and looked at the work uniform at the front desk.
The enchanting red color is so shocking.
Fuck!
How unlucky of you!
Nagase Taku suppressed his fear and reached for the receiver of the landline phone.
The smile on the face of the smiling red-clothed staff member slowly disappeared.
As Taku Nagase pressed the keys one by one.
The staff member's expression became increasingly ugly.
After Nagase Taku pressed the last key.
His face was so dark that it looked like water was dripping from it.
The teeth were grinding with a creaking sound, dripping with saliva.
She opened her mouth towards Taku Nagase and made a threatening gesture.
But they never really launched an attack from beginning to end.
Taku Nagase put down the phone tremblingly and walked out of the hotel.
The student boy who came back from the dead was looking at him outside with a sinister look in his eyes.
After waiting for a while, footsteps were heard from outside the hotel.
A group of fully armed soldiers in black combat uniforms rushed out of the car and entered the hotel.
After a while, the red staff member was carried out on a stretcher.
Nagase Taku walked back into the hotel.
The sound of gunfire echoed in the hall.
There was also a staff member in a black uniform standing at the front desk.
The same sexy beauty, pale face and seductive red lips.
The way he bowed was no different from the previous one.
"Welcome." said the staff member.
Taku Nagase walked back to the front desk and prepared to check in.
However, the rules just now have changed.
Qiru Hotel Check-in Rules
Dear travelers, welcome to Qiru Hotel.
The hotel has first-class room facilities and a pleasant living environment. In order to allow all travelers to better enjoy your leisure time in the hotel, please be sure to abide by the following rules.
1. Guests checking in need to confirm the uniform of the front desk attendant. The front desk attendants will only wear black work uniforms.

2: All passengers must return to their rooms before 9pm.
3: The hotel provides buffet, but please enter between 12:00-13:00 noon and 19:00-20:00 in the evening.

7: When checking in, if you see red water or purple glass, leave the room immediately and seek help from the front desk.
... ... ... .
17: Black is for justice, crimson is for corruption, and purple is for distortion.
Taku Nagase took a look and realized the problem.
The prompt I just saw should have been tampered with.
Red, black, and purple seem to represent different camps.
I should not ignore the problem of this code.
I was just so frightened by the student boy that I couldn't wrap my mind around it for a while.
With this unexpected change, I don’t know if it will affect my stay tonight.
Because of the delay just now, it’s getting late.
If I look for other hotels, I'm afraid they will have their own rules.
If it were even weirder, the situation would be even worse.
The most terrible thing is, who knows what the standard of dark is.
Is it dark when it is completely dark, or is it dark at a certain point in time
Thinking of this, Taku Nagase still went through the check-in procedures.
There are also rules in the elevator.
It's on the left side of the elevator door.
It is a red and black metal plate embedded in the wall.
Dear passengers, please follow the following rules when taking the elevator to protect your life and property.
1: This elevator is for passenger only, with a rated capacity of 11 people and 823 kg. Please do not overload.
2: Regardless of whether there is anyone in the elevator, if it indicates overload, please get out immediately. If this happens three times in a row, please contact the front desk for help.
3: After swiping the room card, the floor number key of the room will light up automatically. Please check carefully. If you find that the elevator floor display is wrong, please do not get out of the elevator at the wrong floor. Just stay in the elevator and wait for it to close.
4: If the elevator stays at the wrong floor for a long time, do not get out of the elevator. Press the emergency button immediately and hotel professionals will solve the problem for you.
5: Do not answer any questions asked by the staff on the wrong floor. If the other party is wearing official work clothes, you can use gestures to ask for help.
6: After arriving at the designated floor, a staff member will take you to your room. Please make sure that he is wearing red/purple/black work clothes. If you see a staff member in red/purple/black work clothes, please ignore them. If they bother you, please contact the hotel front desk immediately or go to your room alone.
These rules apply to every corner of this city.
Many rules are still contradictory, and you will fall into trouble if you are not careful.
Even with the gift of insight, it is impossible to tell whether these rules are right or wrong.
The weirdness of this hotel was beyond his imagination.
The student boy who came back from the dead also walked in.
With that weird, hard smile, he followed behind Nagase Taku.
After swiping the elevator card, the elevator started running.
The floor number was wrong and the car stopped at a wrong floor.
When the elevator door opened, what came into view was a hotel room decorated in bright red.
Red tiles, red lights, and doors are all red.
The ground is paved with blood-red carpets.
It's so creepy!
Nagase Taku did not go down. After waiting for a while, the elevator door closed and this time it went to the designated floor.
When the elevator door opens.
Even more creepy.
All black.
It's just like where a dead person lives.
The darkness is so depressing that it makes people feel like they can’t breathe.
The door, floor, ceiling, and lighting were dim and couldn't be seen clearly from a distance.
All I could see was darkness.
Sometimes there was a gurgling sound coming from there.
Nagase Taku had an illusion that the darkness in the deepest part of the corridor was alive and was wriggling there, which was extremely strange.
"Damn it, am I in a haunted house?" Seeing this scene, Nagase Taku was completely numb!
This game designer is an idiot!
He felt that he would not live much longer.
Who knows, I might be swallowed up by this pitch-black darkness soon.
... ... ... ... ...
"Hehe, my back feels so heavy. So heavy."
“Why won’t the elevator move
”
"Let me see, there's something wrong with the elevator, need help."
If Nagase Taku were here, he would definitely recognize that the voice talking to herself belonged to the female white-collar worker who ran away with the fitness man before.
But the other party's appearance at this moment has changed drastically.
A huge tumor grew on her back.
One hand turned into a tentacle that was constantly oozing with mucus, and the other hand was covered with tumors.
Where the palm should be, there is a mouth full of fangs and eyes.
The whole look is extremely weird.
No wonder I can’t get into the elevator.
She alone made the elevator overloaded.
At this time, she was alone.
Preparing to stay at another hotel.
Those friends who said they would stick with her through thick and thin are now gone.
The female office worker felt dizzy.
She looked at her hands, and saw something sticky dripping from them, and there were a few strands of hair.
"Miss, you are no longer fit to take this elevator. Please follow me."
A staff member in red clothes walked up to the female white-collar worker with a strange smile on his face and led her to the depths of the hotel corridor.
There was a strange red light emanating from there.
The female office worker just walked in like that.
Then there were clanging sounds and angry roars.
... ... ... .
The fitness man and the two surviving men and two women were in another hotel.
They tried many ways to get some money.
After careful analysis and discussion, they believed that staying in a hotel would be the safest.
Living in residential complexes or working jobs that provide food and lodging are too dangerous.
Their initial idea was to find a stable job with food and accommodation.
Prioritize the main mission of surviving for six days, and then find ways to find side missions to expand your income.
They found a job as waiters in a large restaurant. It was an easy job and allowed them to take care of each other.
As a result, something went wrong during the probation period.
The female office worker fell into a state of mental confusion because she violated several rules of the restaurant.
It didn't take long for it to turn into a man-eating monster.
The other two were eaten by the female office worker, and they escaped with the help of a boy's skills.
This incident made them realize the danger of those shops.
The survival copy of the Twisted City is not that simple.
Trying to take advantage of this troubled waters to get into the main storyline won't work.
They spent some time observing those stores and discovered some patterns.
If you violate the rules of the purple-sign shop, you will mutate, lose yourself, and become a strange creature. These creatures will be locked up by the guys in red clothes.
Some butcher shops sell the meat of these strange creatures.
If you violate the red-marked rules, you will be eaten and then resurrected to become a member of this weird city.
If you violate the rules of the black mark, you will be assimilated and become a member of the black camp.
They got rid of the white-collar woman, managed to get some money, and planned to stay at a GreenTree Hotel.
... ... ... ... ... ..
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
"I'm so fucking tired. I won't be willing to go on a business trip next time no matter what. This is not the way to serve the Holy Emperor!
”
Litt hung up a security guard in a red uniform.
No matter how the other party struggled, he couldn't get rid of the rope and could only be hung up by Litt.
After hanging it up, Lit tied the rope.
Then he walked to another sack, ready to hang the second one.
Li Te is in an unfinished building.
The floor where he was was already crowded with people.
Leeteuk realizes that he cannot find the mastermind by ordinary means.
He's like a perverted murderer, catching these people everywhere.
Of course, he is not really a murderer.
He just wanted to try out his new ideas.
Wires are needed to control puppets.
Lines can be visible or invisible.
A puppet must have strings, without strings it is not a puppet.
So as long as we follow the clues, we can find the mastermind behind the scenes.
Li Te wanted to boast that he was a genius.
None of those three bastards can escape.
I'm so exhausted, it would be a shame if I didn't catch him and add merit to my achievements.
