NOVEL WEB Chapter 2: 2
These words effectively attracted everyone's gazes. Just now, the strong but sensitive man couldn't help but tremble. The first person to ask the question was: "Your cousin... Your cousin, what are you doing?"
He obviously misunderstood something, the short-haired female student continuously shook her head: "No no, no... My cousin didn't do anything."
After speaking, she paused and slowed down, calming her fast-beating heart, and explained to everyone: "My cousin was just telling me… Last week, when he went to the park, he encountered a strange discussion about rules and found a way to survive in a dead end. He spoke vividly, but of course I, of course I…" The short-haired girl swallowed her saliva, revealing regret, "The United Nations all said it was just a hacker prank, how could I have known that there would really be such a thing! I thought he was making up a story to fool me!"
"So this game can still kill people?!" The man firmly grasped the key point, trembling even more violently.
The short-haired female student's eyes were also filled with fear, she nodded: "According to what he said, it's like this."
"How do we get out?!" The man took a step forward and grabbed her shoulder, "How did your cousin get out?"
"It's just..." The short-haired female student's shoulder was painfully grabbed, and she was already scared, almost wanting to cry, "It's just following the rules, investigating loopholes..."
Hearing the noise and commotion in his ears, Diep Tich impatiently frowned and looked down at the rule in his hand.

The strong man beside him was still stunned: "Why do you still want to be a detective? Are computer viruses this powerful nowadays?!"
After reading the rules, Diep Tich paused and raised his voice: "If there is no other way to get out, everyone please give out some rules first."
After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for the others to react. She turned around and sent out a copy of the rules in her hand. After sending them, she put the rest back on the table. Her eyes scanned the others and she murmured, "1, 2, 3, 4, 5... And me, a total of 8 people."
The strong man was completely out of his mind, seeing her head, he became even more confused: "What are you doing?"
Ye Xi helplessly helped him to do the situation first and looked back: "Half a month ago, when the global screen black screen was jumping the rules, there was one that said 'remember to confirm the number of people who entered the strange pond realm with you from the beginning, if you remember later, please disregard this article, the number of people is no longer important', do you have an impression?"
At this moment, the strong man, half of the six individuals had confused expressions, looking at each other.
Half a month ago, strange things came too quickly and went too quickly. The rich people basically didn't investigate the situation, most people didn't have time to look at the specific rules.
But actually that short-haired female student immediately nodded: "Yes! After my cousin told me that story, although I felt it was a joke, but went to the super story to look, these few rules were posted on the top!"
The others heard her say that, although they were still confused, their expressions relaxed a bit, because someone from the side at least had evidence to prove that Ye Xi was not talking nonsense.
Diep Tich looked at the clock on the wall, the clock just showed 15:50. Rule number 3 said they had ten minutes to prepare, then required them to change a book every 10 minutes, until the library closed at 17:00.
That is also just borrowed six books.
A male student wearing black glasses also combed out some thoughts, pushed his glasses with his index finger, and said in a proper manner: "I suggest that everyone first do a little self-introduction, then we discuss the procedure for borrowing books. Because according to the rules——" he raised his hand to set up the rules, "Within the same time period, each area cannot borrow books more than 3 times, each person within half an hour cannot borrow books from the same area. If we don't discuss it in advance, there will definitely be problems."
"I agree." Diep Tich nodded, few words but much meaning, "My name is Diep Tich, I am a news department graduate student."
Black glasses suddenly continued: "My name is Truong Minh, a second year math major studying."
Seeing this, the others also introduced themselves enthusiastically. The short-haired female student was called He Si Jia, and the strong and mentally-challenged male student was called Xie Ru Shan. Besides this, there were two males and two females. The male student was tall and thin, called Sun Liang, and the one wearing a sweat shirt and a loose-fitting man's shirt was called Guo Hao Cai. The two female students were called Fang Mu and Zhou Yuan Yuan, both were students from a nearby university, living in the same dormitory.
Probably Ye Xi's calm and careful expression made people feel at ease. He Si Jia recalled how her cousin had been so scared when he told the story. After introducing himself, he immediately grabbed Ye Xi's hand and asked her, asking for her approval: "The rules say that the historical book area is safe. Let's go borrow the historical book..."
Before he finished speaking, Xie Rushan loudly said: "I'll also go borrow the history book!"
Diep Tich's eyebrows jumped slightly, he cursed Ta Nhu Son for being so timid just now, now he really knows how to take chances.
——Each area can only borrow three books, if she and Ha Tu Giai both go to the history area, then go to Ta Nhu Son, there will be exactly three people. He spoke so actively, obviously afraid that someone will snatch them from him.
Truong Minh's eyes fell on the rules again.
Rule number six: History area's folders are all safe and can be read freely, the same goes for religion area.
"Except for the historical area, the religious area is also safe." He raised his eyes and took off his glasses, "Who will go to the religious area with me?"
"Me!" The two female students wanted to speak, but Guo Hao Tai also finished learning and quickly stood beside Zhang Ming.
There was still one spot left, Fang Mu and Zhou Yuanyuan were speechless, Zhou Yuanyuan grabbed Fang Mu's hand: "Here we go, let's go to the novel district together, help everyone scout the way..."
"Okay." Truong Minh nodded and looked at the only person who didn't make a choice, "Only you."
Sun Liang laughed: "I have urgent business to check the social science information. If none of you go to the social science area, I will go to the social science area first to see if there is anything I can use."
"Yes." The tycoons nodded at the same time.
Diep Tich said again: "That big guy goes first to help himself with the paperwork, after he's done he'll go borrow a book, then go to the reading area to gather."
Rule 4 says, reading the rest area is also safe.
Seeing that it was almost 16:00, everyone was not idle and immediately got busy with work.
After finishing borrowing the library, Ye Xi, He Si Jia, and Xie Ru Shan headed towards the history area while thinking: Can the rules really be trusted? If just following the rules and doing things can get you through, where would the danger come from?
Truong Minh and Quach Hao Tai entered the religious area.
The nearest main gate to the 5th floor of the West Gate of the religious area was the library. When Zhang Ming arrived at the library, he conveniently strolled around. Although he didn't borrow any books, he had a general impression.
So when he entered again, he glanced and found that the books here seemed to have changed. The covers of most of the books had turned black, and bright red characters were printed on the spines.
Zhang Ming was a natural science student, and paid great attention to logic in his work. Seeing this kind of situation, he couldn't help but feel strange - if a supernatural force chose a space to force them to play detective, that's fine, but why would they want to specifically change the book cover?
Just as he was absent-minded for a few seconds, Guo Hao Tai strode towards the bookshelf and casually pulled out a book.
" hell ghost explanation ".
Black letter, bright red word, jagged rock body, looking closely very much like slowly flowing thick fresh blood.
"I choose well, you quickly choose!" Guo Haocai tucked the letter under his armpit and urged, "After choosing well, we will quickly scan the barcode, then go read the contract..."
Truong Minh was about to remind him not to talk, but while he was still talking, Quach Hao Tai suddenly widened his eyes, so wide that it seemed like his eyeballs were about to fall out.
Truong Minh was so scared that the next second, he let out a loud scream.
——Three sharp thorns pierced through Guo Haocai's body from behind, each one was stained with thick blood, rusty blood instantly filled the air, more and more fresh blood spurted out from Guo Haocai's mouth, until his body fell straight to the ground.
Zhang Ming, who was staring at all of this, suddenly retreated. He wanted to scream but was so scared that he couldn't make a sound. His knees went weak and he collapsed on the ground.
At the same time, Sun Liang, who was walking into the social science district, noticed a tall machine on the bookshelf that he had seen on the road.
The machine has three words on it: Social Science Reading Area Miscellaneous Air.
Sun Liang suddenly remembered something and picked up the rule page to confirm.
"7. If you want to borrow books and newspapers from the social science area, please insert the borrowed books and magazines into the social science area reading device to read the magazines. After reading the magazines successfully, you will receive the corresponding directory."
How to put the miscellaneous gas on the road, the strange entanglement.
Ton Luong sneered in his heart, shaking his head while scratching his head.
The card was inserted into the socket, the machine made two click sounds, and there was no other response.
Damn it, how can you still swallow junk?!
Sun Liang thought of the first rule "Make sure the borrowed books and magazines are always on you", his scalp immediately went numb, he didn't have time to think too much about it, he immediately thought of turning around to find someone to help.
But the moment he turned around, a person facing him came face to face.
This "face" was only a little bit closer to him. There were no facial features on its face, only the vague outline of a nose could be seen, but Sun Liang felt like it was looking at him.
His whole body was covered in cold sweat, then, in front of the monster, he stretched out his two hands.
The other pair of arms were very ordinary, soft to the point of being like two rubbery colored skins, without hands, the tip became thinner and thinner, until the end. It wrapped around Sun Liang, holding him in its chest, and a non-existent skin-colored beard protruded from its mouth, greedily licking Sun Liang's face.
