“It seems to be true…”

Zhou Chen did not know if this apartment had never had any ghost intrusion like the girl had said, but at least now, he was very sure that the red-dressed female ghost outside did not dare to enter. The strange eyes on its terrifying and long face were clearly staring at the room, but it did not dare to take a step forward and only floated outside anxiously.

“Are you new? This is the first time I’ve seen someone enter like you.”

While Zhou Chen was observing the red-dressed female ghost outside the window, the petite girl looked at him questioningly.

“Yes, this is my first time here. Can you introduce me to this place?”

Zhou Chen asked the girl.

He doubted if the girl was really human, but since he could not see any flaws, he might as well communicate with her.

“I also came not long ago. Let me bring you to meet some seniors and let them explain to you.”

The girl was clearly not confident and prepared to let someone else explain about the place.

“Okay.”

Zhou Chen did not care who explained. This way, he could see the others in the apartment and carefully see if they were ghosts in disguise.

Then, the petite girl walked out of the door that Zhou Chen had broken and entered the corridor outside the door. She began to lead the way.

Zhou Chen asked her,

“I damaged your room just now, is it okay?”

He was asking casually because he felt that the room seemed to be occupied by the girl, but after he damaged it, the girl was not worried at all. It was a little strange.

“It’s okay. The things here will recover quickly after being destroyed.”

The girl turned around and said to him.

Zhou Chen couldn’t help but turn his head to look at the room he had come out of. With a glance, he realized that the door he had broken earlier had actually recovered completely in just a few seconds, as if the destruction earlier was purely an illusion.

“Hehe, this place is really interesting.”

Such a magical scene immediately made Zhou Chen think of the strange residential area he had encountered when he first arrived in this world.

“This place is really not as good as you think. Be prepared.”

The girl shook her head when she heard Zhou Chen’s sigh, as if to say that he was thinking too beautifully if he thought this was a good refuge.

As they spoke, the two of them passed through the corridor and entered an elevator. They went down to the first floor of the apartment and arrived at a hall.

The hall looked rather spacious and bright. The ground was smooth marble, and there was a chandelier that emitted a white light in the ceiling. In the middle was a long table with sumptuous food on it. There was a row of chairs on both sides of the long table.

There were also sofas, televisions, cabinets, refrigerator, potted plants, and various other items in the living room, making the place look quite lively.

At this moment, there were five people eating and a few people sitting on the sofa chatting.

The petite girl entered the hall and said to a middle-aged man in a suit who was eating roasted chicken,

“Uncle Wang, there’s a newcomer.”

When the suited middle-aged man heard the girl, he moved his gaze from the roasted chicken to Zhou Chen.

“Newcomer? There’s a newcomer again?”

He mumbled and looked up at Zhou Chen with a puzzled gaze.

“I don’t think I’ve seen you before. When did you come?”

“I came in just earlier.”

Zhou Chen immediately replied.

“Just now? Why didn’t I see you enter the apartment?”

The suited middle-aged man frowned.

The petite girl explained.

“Uncle Wang, he barged into my room through the window.”

“Huh?”

The middle-aged man who the girl called Uncle Wang was even more puzzled, as if he had never heard of such a thing.

“So that’s what happened earlier. Looks like the way this apartment is attracting people is becoming more and more ridiculous.”

A guy in casual clothes and buzz-cut walked over and picked up a plate of braised pork.

“When I heard the sound above, I thought you were smashing things to vent your anger, Little Li.”

After saying this to the petite girl, he used his chopsticks to pick up a piece of fat piece of meat from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth, munching on it.

“Alright, hurry up and introduce this place to him.”

The petite girl called Little Li ignored this person and urged.

“What’s there to introduce? Just learn from me. Eat well and wait for death.”

The buzz-cut young man picked a second piece of meat with the chopsticks.

However, his words were ignored by the other two. Uncle Wang took out a napkin and wiped his mouth. He looked at Zhou Chen and said,

“Young man, I’m sorry to see you here. I think you’ve already seen those strange things before you came, right?”

A smile appeared on his face, appearing somewhat affable.

“Yes, I was chased by a red-dressed female ghost.”

Zhou Chen nodded. This person’s words did match his experience.

“Then you should be able to change your mindset now. You know that there are some evil things in this world.”

Uncle Wang nodded slightly.

“We call this apartment the Blood Letter Apartment. According to our inference, it’s most likely the same as the thing you encountered before. It’s also an evil entity, but it’s different from other ghosts and evil spirits. It won’t hurt us directly, and will only use indirect methods to put us in danger.”

“Indirectly? Can you elaborate?”

Zhou Chen was intrigued.

“It’s to send us to the mouths of other monsters like express delivery!”

The buzz-cut young man, who was still eating the pork meat, interrupted.

His interruption displeased Uncle Wang who was about to speak.

“Don’t interrupt, or why don’t you do the explaining!”

“Just a few words, a few words!”

The buzz-cut young man was not fazed. He continued to speak,

“Newbie, I’m straightforward with my words. There are three main things about this apartment. The first is that after you enter, you cannot leave freely. If you go out, you will be eaten by the monsters outside. The second is that every once in a while, this Blood Letter Apartment will name a few people to be teleported out to do missions. Failure means death. The third is that no monsters will enter this apartment. There are also plenty of living resources here to live happily.”

“Thank you.”

Although this buzz-cut young man did not seem to be steady, his words hit the nail on the head, making Zhou Chen understand the situation here.

“No need to thank me. Hurry up and eat something good like me or find a girl to have fun. Otherwise, it will be a loss if you die in your mission.”

The buzz-cut young man continued to eat.

“Young man, Little Huang did not mention another thing. If you complete ten missions, you can leave the Blood Letter Apartment safely.”

Uncle Wang added.

“No one has confirmed this rule, that’s why I didn’t say it.”

The buzz-cut young man retorted.

“But several old people in the apartment mentioned that they had seen this before in the bloody words. It must be true.”

Uncle Wang said firmly.

“Hehe, who cares if it’s true or not. Let’s enjoy ourselves. Little Sister Li, let’s spend the night together.”

The buzz-cut young man finished the plate of meat and looked at Little Li lustfully.

“Get lost!”

Little Li was displeased that he was so frivolous.

“I won’t give up like you! I will definitely complete ten blood missions and leave this place!”

She raised her head and shouted at the buzz-cut guy.

“Can you tell me more about the blood mission?”

Zhou Chen was very interested in this so-called blood mission.

“Young man, don’t be in a hurry. You’ll know soon.”

Uncle Wang pointed at a clock hanging on the wall a few meters away and replied.

Zhou Chen looked at the clock on the wall and realized that the time indicated was almost midnight.

At this moment, the two elevators on the side of the hall opened their doors at the same time. A total of five people walked out.

They were three men and two women. They were all young. After exiting the elevator, they walked to the clock on the wall with a serious expression and began to wait.

“Are these people waiting for the mission?”

Zhou Chen guessed.

“Yes.”

Uncle Wang stood up.

“There is a pattern to the release of the blood mission. Typically, the residents will take turns. It’s their turn this time.”

He looked at the people below the clock who had serious or worried expressions, and his eyes filled with pity.

A few minutes later. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

“The mission is out!”

Someone shouted. Everyone in the hall cast their gazes at the wall with the clock.

Zhou Chen also looked over and realized that several lines of blood-red words had appeared on the originally white wall.

“Liu Xuedong, He Jin, Hong Qiang, Zhang Xiuxiu, Yi Fu, and Zhou Chen needs to enter a wicked building and obtain at least three bizarre items to return to the apartment.”

“My name is actually on it!”

Zhou Chen was shocked by the content of the blood words because he saw his name on it.

“This apartment knows my name? Could it be someone else with the same name?”

Zhou Chen felt that it was a little strange for his name to be known, so he suspected that someone had the same name.

While he was thinking, the five people standing under the clock exploded.

“It’s over! This mission actually requires us to obtain bizarre items! Who dares to touch that thing!”

A short and fat man wailed.

“Some bizarre items can be touched. We will choose carefully when the time comes.”

A young man with glasses consoled the short fatty.

“You want to choose carefully?! That’s a wicked building. Do you think it’s a store? We might be killed by the monsters at any moment if we enter. How can we have the mood to choose the bizarre items?”

A middle-aged man in short sleeves couldn’t help but shake his head and refute. His voice was filled with despair.

“Where there’s a will, there is a way. Anyway, there is no use even if you are afraid.”

The bespectacled youth looked at him calmly.

“Brother Jin, why are there six people in this mission? Who is Zhou Chen?” f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

A long-haired girl of medium height asked curiously.

“The number of people in each mission is not fixed. As for this Zhou Chen, I don’t have any impression of this name. He should be a newcomer.”

The bespectacled young man who the long-haired girl called Brother Jin replied calmly.

“I’m Zhou Chen. I just arrived.”

At this moment, Zhou Chen had already walked to their side. When he heard the bespectacled youth’s words, he knew that the possibility of there being someone else with the same name was almost none. The blood mission should be referring to him, so he stood forward to introduce himself to integrate with this group in advance.

“Hello, I’m He Jin. I’ve passed four missions. Welcome to the team.”

The bespectacled young man introduced himself with a smile.

“Hello, my name is Yi Fu. If you don’t mind, you can team up with me and Brother Jin later.”

The long-haired girl standing beside the bespectacled young man introduced herself.

“Alright, but can you tell me what the bizarre item is?”

Zhou Chen saw that the two of them seemed to be very easy to talk to, so he asked them about the bizarre item.

“Sure.”

He Jin nodded.

“Bizarre items are items that are influenced and changed by ghosts and monsters. They have magical effects, but they are often accompanied by a huge negative effect. The Blood Letter Apartment sometimes sends us to collect bizarre items.”

He explained to Zhou Chen.

“I see… I’m looking forward to it.”

After hearing his explanation, Zhou Chen nodded slightly at him and began to observe the other three.

One of them was the short fatty who had spoken at the beginning. He had a worried expression and was constantly running his hand through his already scarce hair.

One was a middle-aged man in short sleeves. He was staring at the blood words, as if he could not accept this mission.

The other was a thin girl. She seemed to be a little solitary. She stood alone at the side. Her expression was calm, but her slightly trembling body showed that her heart was not calm.

A few minutes passed quickly. Just as Zhou Chen was about to ask when the mission would begin, he felt his mind go adrift. His vision blurred, and the scene around him changed from the spacious and bright hall to a dark building entrance.

In his Dark Vision, the glass door of the building was open. There was a deep passage inside that looked like the mouth of a beast.

While Zhou Chen was observing, five torchlights lit up in succession. The other five apartment residents beside him had taken out their flashlights.

“You don’t have a flashlight? Then follow me.”

He Jin was the first to notice that Zhou Chen did not bring a torchlight.

“Thank you.”

Zhou Chen wanted to refuse, but he remembered that he should be more cautious in this freakish world, so he accepted this suggestion.

“Ah Jin, you guys can go in first. I want to take a puff first.”

The middle-aged man in short sleeves took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it with his trembling hand.
