In the world of strange rules, abstract and complex, [infinite]

Chapter 8: 9



Sun Liang's eyes suddenly showed panic, but his speed at recovering his composure was still quite fast. He suddenly snorted in disdain at Ye Xi's words: "I'm not the only one who borrowed religious books. I think the rules are only aimed at borrowing books, right?"

This explanation is actually quite convincing, but his blunt words sound too guilty, making even a believable explanation seem doubtful.

Ye Xi did not express his opinion but smiled: "Now let's return to the original question - you borrowed the book but did not register it, why? Did you not borrow the miscellaneous book?"

Hearing that, Ton Luong's eyes suddenly became more panicked: "No, no..."

"Rule 1 of the social science area: 'This area does not have any reading gas, if you see reading gas, please do not use it'; Rule 2: 'Be careful of people who use reading gas, do not trust them, go through them!'——You reported these two rules truthfully, is it to relax our vigilance? Ah... Using this method of mixing up the words and the images is not bad, so if we suspect you have a problem, we will doubt the truth of these two rules, and instead fall into your trap!"

Diep Tich and his fierce fighting spirit became more and more intense, causing Ton Luong to be even more frightened.

If we say that the previous big guy borrowed the letter in the social science safety zone, it only proved the first rule's authenticity, then Sun Liang's current reaction confirmed the second rule.

But if she followed the second rule, what would happen?

"Read the rest area is safe".

Ye Xi had already gained confidence from this verification rule, silently took a deep breath, and stared at Sun Liang with a tight gaze: "You were already contaminated by the reading gas of the social science area from the very beginning. You used the reading gas to read the magazines, and then… the magazines were swallowed? That's why you never borrowed books and magazines again."

"No ——" Sun Liang screamed hysterically, panicked and wanted to rush towards Ye Xi, wanting to stop her words.

But just as she finished speaking, Sun Liang immediately stopped just after taking two steps. His pupils constricted, his hand suddenly covered his stomach, from the drastic change in expression on his face, he was admitting intense pain.

"Ca" a sound, it seemed like the bones were breaking, Sun Liang's body started to twist. His entire face, body, and bones were all in a very strange way of deforming, it was like a block of metal was being fiercely grabbed by a hand with enormous strength, forcibly molding into an irregular appearance.

A few seconds later, Sun Liang, who had stopped breathing, collapsed on the ground in an extremely irregular shape. After a moment, he turned into a ball of black sand.

The library windows were tightly closed, and there was no wind. The black sand swirled around as if it had encountered a small whirlwind. Then its color gradually faded until it disappeared.

"... Oh my god." After a few seconds, Ta Nhu Son regained his senses, startled, then felt cold.

It's so scary, a living person, just like that, there is nothing.

What was even more frightening was that before Ye Xi made his analysis, he did not feel that Sun Liang had any problems at all. The dead Zhang Ming, Zhou Yuanyuan, and Fang Mu obviously did not notice either.

If this continues, the next death will probably be me.

Ta Nhu Son was extremely lucky that he woke up in time and eased his relationship with Diep Tich.

People really want to be good at hugging thighs!

Diep Tich watched the black silk disappear, his eyes moved, looking at the wall clock.

4:47.

"You can prepare to borrow the next round of books." Ye Xi took the rule back from He Si Jia's hand and said thoughtfully, "The insurance is starting, you can choose multiple books at once, the best time to complete the registration is around 4:51."

Ha Tu Giai felt like her intelligence was being pushed aside: "Why?"

"Because at 5:00 time, I want to take the 'final selection' books and newspapers and leave. As the saying goes, I think this 'final selection' means the last round of selection books and newspapers.

"In addition, the rule also requires 10 minutes to change a book. Although at present, it seems that this 10 minute cycle is not really limited, allowing for differences to exist, but the scope of the differences is not very clear."

"If we just borrowed the last book at 4:51, and it's not even ten minutes until 5:00, and we leave directly, then we definitely haven't violated any rules. If we finished scanning the code to borrow the book at 4:48, it's already been ten minutes since 4:58, so it's hard to judge whether we need to change the book in the last two minutes."

Ye Xi synthesized experience and rules to judge that the previous borrowing process allowed for differences, and the rule "Library closes at 5:00 pm in the evening" was a fixed time. Using the allowed different process to give in to a fixed time was a relatively reasonable method.

Explaining his thoughts clearly, Diep Tich calmly said: "Next, we should go to the novel area."

"Good!" Xie Ru Shan, who had been silent just now, suddenly shot up, excitement evident on his face.

This excitement made Ye Xi and He Si Jia stunned for a moment. Xie Ru Shan also realized that he was overreacting. He smiled awkwardly and simply said what he was thinking: "That… do you want to make some money together?"

"Huh?" Now it was Diep Tich's turn to be confused, "How do you make money?"

Xie Rushan rubbed his hands together, his face smiling slyly: "You know, if we lose a library book, the compensation will be the same, including not publishing the book anymore. So we can return the unpublished book, but the scabbard will not be returned."

From his pre-planned tone, it was obvious that he was very experienced with this, and it wasn't the first time he had done this.

Diep Tich & Ha Tu Giai: "..." Damn it, this is too much.

From the public restroom shopping mall, a thief stole a roll of toilet paper, and you got one?!

Probably looking at their disdainful faces, Xie Rushan thick-skinnedly argued for himself: "Besides, this is not a normal library, it is just a temporarily formed 'Rule Realm'. The books we took away from this place originally had no chance of remaining, so unpublished books are still normal books, what's the difference?"

Diep Tich & Ha Tu Giai: "..."

Xie Rushan: "I just thought about it carefully, of all kinds of books, except for historical books, there are the most out-of-print novels, and there are also books signed by late old authors, it would be a waste not to get them!"

Ha Tu Giai finally couldn't hold it in anymore, making Ta Nhu Son's eyes roll white.

Diep Tich thought for a moment, although he did not intend to collude with him to do wrong, he did not think much about making moral criticism. Big shots originally met each other on the spur of the moment, no one had the obligation to teach anyone how to be a good person, moreover, Ta Nhu Son's words, although just an excuse, also had some truth: The letters they took from this place were all gone.

"You choose." She simply and perfunctorily said, shrugged, and led the way out of the reading area.

Entering the novel area again, Ye Xi first walked past the romance novel bookshelf, then belatedly noticed the copy of "Summer Flavored Yogurt" that almost killed her was still covered in chalk on the ground. She didn't look much, instead taking two steps forward in three steps, kicking it back to the bookshelf with one foot.

Looking intently at the side of the bookshelf, Diep Tich glanced and noticed that there was Yu Hua's representative work, "Existence".

This letter name, is it really suitable for the current situation?

Diep Tich had complicated feelings and grabbed it. Ha Tu Giai saw her take it and couldn't help but laugh. Obviously, she thought of the same thing as her, so she also took a copy of "Existence".

Ta Nhu Son searched and searched, finally choosing a copy of Ly Tuong Quoc's translation of "The Whisperer".

The three people, like before, went to scan the registration code again, then returned to the rest area to wait.

They have a few things in common, they can leave this hellish place.

Everyone relaxed a bit, Ha Tu Giai leaned on the chair and laughed: "At first I thought I was going to die for sure... Luckily you're here!"

Diep Tich smiled, not polite, not claiming credit: "Now you can brag to your cousin."

Ta Nhu Son did not join in the conversation, he just kept reading the book "Whisperer".

Because he often took advantage of the library's management mechanism to bring home unpublished letters to earn extra income, he knew quite a bit about unpublished letters. This copy of "Whisperer" was the original at first glance, not a cheap copy, and even with the seal still intact, it could be sold for several hundred copies on the market.

Several hundred dollars, consider it as compensation for his mental loss!

4:59, Diep Tich stood up, once again went to the self-registration area, and performed the last scan of the code.

At this time, everyone pressed down on the screen the second button: Borrow reading registration.

On the interface screen jumps, simple introduction display: You can borrow and read the letter from any area in the shop, except for the limited borrowing distance, please confirm that the letter in your hand is the letter you want to borrow and read.

So it seems that if you go again, you can write a letter, but it is not necessary.

Diep Tich pressed "Confirm", then pasted the card, scanned the code, "Tick" a small sound after, the interface jumped again: "Borrowed reading successful."

"Welcome back again."

Diep Tich's inner thoughts: Thank you, no need, goodbye.

He Sijia was slightly late by two seconds, and had finished reading. While he was relaxing, Ye Xi's other side's reading machine rang out a mechanical reminder: "The code scan failed. You have taken the book, and you are not allowed to take it out of the store."

Diep Tich and Ha Tu Giai stiffened, and looked over at the same time. Ta Nhu Son scanned again.

"The scan failed. You took the book, you are not allowed to take it out of the office." The reminder was unchanging.

The screen in the lower right corner shows the time, and it has already run to 4:59:42.

There are hidden rules!

Just like in reality, seeing Xie Rushan like this kind of person borrowing rules to take advantage of the situation, the library continuously has harmful tricks after learning, whichever trick they encounter, they will break it, there is no clear regulation in the document, and in the database, the book that is no longer published is set as "Cannot be borrowed from abroad" is the same...

Diep Tich reacted extremely quickly, reaching out to suddenly push the panicking Ta Nhu Son away, pointing at the bookshelf, signaling him to go change the book.

Ta Nhu Son was startled for a moment, suddenly realizing that the book might not be published anymore, he staggered towards the bookshelf and chose a new book.

Diep Tich's heart beat faster involuntarily, because Ta Nhu Son was nervous, staring at the time but his eyes were not moving, seeing the time jump to 4:59:50, she pulled Ha Tu Giai's hand, leading the way to the west gate.

5:00, Diep Tich pulled Ha Tu Giai out of the main gate area.

At this time, the strange general outside the door disappeared. After going out the back door, they saw a normal porch. A few steps ahead was the elevator room. However, if they turned around to look, the western area was still the same as before. Through the window, they could still see the yellow sand.

Diep Tich took out his cell phone, the main signal gradually recovered, the signal every few seconds gradually jumped from zero to one, then slowly pulled up to three.

She thought, the clock started, the time showed 5:00:24.

25, 26, 27...

At the time of the 43rd jump, Xie Rushan finally appeared again, running towards the self-registration machine while sweating coldly.

Not having time to stand still in front of the machine, he reached out and pressed "Borrow reading registration".

But this kind of borrowed reading screen is mostly not very sensitive, just now when borrowing the letter, everyone did not feel any impact, simply pressing a few times, now in the urgent situation suddenly had a feeling, seeing the machine did not react so frantically pressed, on the contrary made the screen react even slower.

47, 48, 49...

Ta Nhu Son hurriedly took out the borrowed reading magazine and started pasting the magazine.

52, 53.

Ta Nhu Son read the barcode and went to the scanning window, impatiently sticking it back and forth.

5:01:00.

A white light suddenly enveloped Ye Xi and He Si Jia. In the white light, Ye Xi saw Xie Ru Shan, who had just finished swiping, suddenly turn his head to look at them, his eyes filled with horror.

Ta Nhu Son staggered and ran towards the white light, his body revealing a miserable despair.

But in the end, he could not rush into the white light.

Ye Xi felt his body gradually float up, a line of words slowly appeared from the white light: "Congratulations, you successfully passed the 'Rules Library Strange Talk' and obtained the prop reward. You can choose to upgrade your existing props, or you can also draw new props."

The subtitle below is two pictures, the left one is the image of the [Prophet] she drew earlier, below the button is written "Level Up". Below the button is also a small line of text: After leveling up, the Prophet will mark you twice as a contaminated player.

On the right side is the complete blind box, using the commonly seen 4*3 layout, with the button below written "Withdraw".

Diep Tich was in trouble.

This experience with the Rule of Law Realm was enough to let her know that this tool was trustworthy and could provide effective help to her. Moreover, distinguishing between contaminated players was indeed very important, and could directly help her avoid danger.

But...

Three seconds of confusion later, Diep Tich decisively pressed down on the right side, "Pull out".
