Haunted House Survival System

Chapter 55 To Reality

Chapter 55 Back to Reality
Dirty clothes and socks were scattered on a single bed, giving off a sour smell.Snacks and drink bottles can be seen everywhere leaning next to the computer.The light had long since broken, and the only thing flickering in the room was the 21-inch desktop computer display.

Jin Jiu suddenly raised his head lying in front of the screen, staring at the fixed-frame subtitles on the computer screen:

""Haunted House 2" will be released in August 2020, so stay tuned!"

I resurrected?

Jin Jiu's brain was not functioning properly yet. He stared at the screen for a long time and then looked at the time in the lower right corner of the computer screen:
2020年5月30日20:41
Suddenly he laughed at himself and said, "What, it's just a dream."

He stood up, stretched greatly, and took another deep breath.

An indescribable smell rushed into the nostrils: "Cough cough cough..."

Why is it so smelly?Looks like it really needs to be sorted out.

Thinking about it, he started to clean up the garbage in the room with the light of the screen, and threw all the dirty clothes and socks into the laundry basket...

"Dong dong dong, dong dong dong..." The deafening knock on the door made dust fall from the roof.

"Here it comes." Jin Jiu put down the laundry basket and opened the door.

It was the landlady's aunt, a 35-year-old unmarried leftover woman.

"Jin Jiu, you are short of this month's rent. When will you pay it?"

"Hey, I'll pass it on to you in a while." Jin Jiu replied with a yawn.

The landlord's aunt squeezed her eyes into the door, frowned, and said: "Xiao Wang next door said, your place is a bit noisy at night, are you playing games? Keep your voice down..."

"Hey, I'm sorry, auntie, I will pay attention." Jin Jiu touched his head and smiled.

"Well, then I'll go first." The landlady walked away holding her nose in disgust.

Jin-gu closes the door and yawns again.

However, just in the middle of the yawn, he suddenly widened his eyes:

What did she call me just now?

It seems to be... Jin Jiu?
The drowsiness all over his body disappeared without a trace, and Jin Jiu was like a groundhog, rummaging through the mountains of textbooks.

He just finished the college entrance examination, these textbooks were originally planned to be packed and thrown away.

He remembered that there was an admission ticket inside.

After flipping through a few books, he was stunned.

Although no admission ticket was found, the name of "Jin Jiu" was clearly written on the covers of those textbooks.

This t...isn't it a dream? !
Am I really resurrected as Jin Jiu?
"Z-"

The screen of the phone on the table lit up, and because he didn't want to affect his playing games, Jin Jiu turned the phone to vibrate mode.

The name of the incoming call above shows: Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu is his high school classmate. Both of them like to play horror games, so they often get together to study how to solve puzzles and break through levels.

"Hello?" Jin Jiu answered the phone.

An excited voice came from the other end: "Jin Jiu! When did you clear "Haunted House"? You didn't tell me!"

"Huh? How do you know I've cleared the level?" Jin Jiu was a little guilty. He remembered that he had worked with the big boss Jin Jiu for five nights, failed 120 times and still hadn't cleared it.

"You are number one on the leaderboard, don't you know? The only all-pass player with a 100% puzzle solving rate! You are famous!"

"What?" Jin Jiu was taken aback, holding the phone in his left hand, and clicking a few times on the computer screen with his right hand.

Open the web favorites, the homepage of the official forum of "Haunted Mansion" game, and the global clearance ranking——

No.1, Jin Jiu (CHN), the puzzle solving rate is 100%.

No.2, Xiao Yanling (CHN), puzzle solving rate 60%.

No.3, Mai Ngoc (VNM), the puzzle solving rate is 40%.

……

Jin Jiu suddenly saw his name on the top of the list, and his mind was a little confused for a while.

I checked the forum again, and all the posts in the list were asking for customs clearance strategies, and many of them asked for his phone number and address.

"Hello? Jin Jiu, are you still there?" On the other end of the phone, Jiang Yu was still yelling excitedly.

Jin Jiu hesitated for a long time, and suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Yuzi, tell me, what is the name of the big boss in "Haunted House"?"

"It's called Jin Jiu, just like you. Is there any problem?" Jiang Yu replied naturally on the other end of the phone.

Jin Jiu: "..."

Nothing wrong with that?

What is your kid's brain made of, and you still say there's no problem with such a weird thing?

Jiang Yu ignored his silence and continued: "No.2 actually has the same name as the heroine, haha, when the ranking first came out, everyone thought it was a system NPC!"

No.2?
Only then did Jin Jiu notice that the No.2 was named Xiao Yanling, who only had one more surname than the heroine... Xiao? .

"Jin Jiu? When will you send me a copy of the strategy... Jin Jiu?"

"Yuzi, let's talk about this later. Listen to me, from now on, I can't tell anyone my contact information and address, do you understand?"

"Of course I know, fire, theft, and paparazzi, don't worry!"

Jin Jiu hung up the phone in a hurry and stared at the computer screen in disbelief, with thousands of thoughts in his mind.

He really cleared "Haunted House" and returned to reality with Jin Jiu's identity, and it was officially recognized!
The people around him accepted his identity, as if Lu Shuangchen had never been in this world.

Is this science?

The shock in his heart has made him unable to think in a normal way. The extreme shock has made Jin Jiu... extremely calm now.

He silently continued to pack the things in the room, packed up the garbage, threw the clothes in the laundry basket into the washing machine, and pressed the automatic washing switch.

After finally returning to reality, no matter what happened, he didn't want to pay attention to it anymore.

Even if the contract of sale is real, he doesn't know when he will be dragged into the game again.

""Haunted House 2" will be released in August..." He muttered, saying that there are still nearly 8 months of calm time.

All right, let's just enjoy life.

Jin Jiu thought, carrying two packed garbage bags, taking the room key, and went out to throw away the garbage.

The place where he rents a house is a small county town in Pingcheng, which is very close to his high school.

His parents died very early in a car accident, and both of them died, leaving him living with his grandmother in the countryside.Relying on the compensation and the living expenses given by his uncle and aunt, he went to a fully closed high school.

In the past three years, no one in his family has visited him once, and he is used to living alone.

This rental building has three floors, all occupied by tenants.After leaving the first floor, there is an iron gate below, which is usually open during the day and will only be locked after 11 o'clock in the evening.

It was not yet 11 o'clock, and Jin Jiu walked downstairs carrying two large black garbage bags.

All the way out of the iron gate and walking to the road outside, he saw four trash cans of different colors. He threw all the garbage bags into "other garbage" without hesitation.

I clapped my hands and suddenly felt a little hungry.

But it's so late, he doesn't bother to go out to buy things anymore, so let's order takeaway.

Jin Jiu took out his mobile phone, opened the food delivery app on it, and walked all the way back to the rental room.

As I walked, I felt a little strange. There seemed to be something more on the iron gate than usual.

When I looked up, I saw a long piece of white paper stuck vertically on the doorpost with a black circle drawn on it.

Is there a funeral?
Jin Jiu didn't pay too much attention, and continued to walk in. He lowered his head to order takeout, but was disturbed by a burst of crying and raised his head again.

I saw two pieces of white cloth floating on both sides of the door of Room 101, and a large white flower hanging in the middle of the door frame. The door was wide open, and a black word "Dian" could be vaguely seen inside.

The cry of a woman inside was particularly ear-piercing: "Sister Chen, how could you just leave like that!..."

Sister Chen?

Room 101... isn't the landlord the only one living there?

Her... seems to be named Chen.
