Chapter 293: The Night of Terror in the Office Building Begins (2-in-1 Order Request)

The game begins with the security guard getting up and appearing in his own apartment.

Seeing that it was already dark, the protagonist said to himself, "Aw, damn, I'm going to be late."

He works double shifts, and today is his turn to work the night shift.

The calendar on the wall says February 2th with the words "happy birthday" written on it. It must be someone's birthday.

Chun Hei put on the VR sensing gloves and began to control the security guard's movements.

It was raining outside the window, and he took a quick look around his home.

This seems to be an apartment for a family of three. The wide living room carpet is covered with children's toys and dolls.

At this time, the security guard's stomach started to rumble.

He saw a curry and rice bento wrapped in plastic wrap on the table, so he sat down, picked up his fork and started eating.

Chun Hei, who was wearing a VR headset, suddenly said excitedly: "Dear audience members, I don't know how to describe this feeling to you. I actually smelled the aroma of curry, as if it was coming from the VR device."

The audience was stunned:
"I'm going? Is this even possible?"

"I've only heard of VR being able to simulate images and sounds, but I've never heard of it being able to simulate smells."

Pure Black manipulates the security guard to continue searching the house.

There is a birthday cake in the refrigerator.

It says: "Happy 7th Birthday", which should be their child's birthday.

On the wall next to the refrigerator, there is a crayon portrait of a family of three drawn with childish strokes.

When he came to the bedroom, his wife was already asleep on the bed, and the pure black-controlled male protagonist put on a security uniform.

He went to his daughter's room opposite the bedroom and looked at her.

Pure Black: "My wife and children are asleep, but I still have to work the night shift. This is what a middle-aged man is like, ah."

The comment section laughed: "Hahaha, so true."

……

The male protagonist drove to the downstairs of the company. At this time, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier.

The tall office buildings stand in the rain at night, and the atmosphere becomes increasingly quiet and eerie.

After entering the building, Chun Hei's heart skipped a beat.

The terrifying atmosphere in the building's lobby is chilling.

The lights were dim, with only some weak incandescent lamps and pale yellow emergency lights barely illuminating the entire hall. The lamps on the ceiling made a buzzing sound, which seemed particularly eerie.

The lobby was luxuriously decorated, but in the dim light, everything was shrouded in deep shadows. The painting of the company's founder hanging on the wall, its once kind expression, became distorted and eerie under the light.

The marble tiles on the ground were wet with accumulated water, reflecting the dim light like a mirror. In this quiet hall, every footstep seemed particularly clear.

The clock on the central reception desk in the lobby ticked away, and the faint hum of electricity from the surveillance cameras on the wall made one feel as if they were being watched.

Suddenly, the elevator door made an eerie ding-dong sound and slowly opened. In this dim hall, the light from inside the elevator was like a gaping hole from the abyss of hell.

Immediately afterwards, a young woman in red clothes, with disheveled hair and pale skin, flashed by at the end of the corridor.

The extreme immersion brought by the VR headset made Pure Black scream in fear:

"Oh my god, I was so scared. Did a woman just walk by?"

The barrage flooded the screen:

"Isn't it normal for someone to walk over? Hahahahahaha."

"I wasn't scared by the game, I was scared by the anchor."

Chun Hei calmed his mind and entered the security monitoring room. The walls of the monitoring room were covered with monitors showing the surveillance of each floor.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...

Intermittent jazz music played from the wall-mounted radio.

Jun Hei smiled, trying to lighten the mood: "Is this the overtime song?"

On the table in the security room, there was a note that indicated what to do tonight:
[1. Check the fire alarm in each room and lock the door]

2. Turn off the bathroom light

3. Clear out conspicuous trash, such as delivery and takeout boxes.

4. If an employee is stranded at the company, persuade him to go home.

Next to it was a note left by the company's administrative manager:

"The former security guard of this building, Qin Fenjin, has been missing for several days, and his phone is unreachable. He has completely lost contact with me.

I guess he has already resigned?

This brat didn't even say hello and left his things in the company without cleaning up. What a careless guy.

But you should be okay, I'll have to rely on you from now on.

Our company has a rule that overtime is prohibited after midnight, so you need to let the stranded personnel go home.

First check the clock, surveillance cameras and security content, then start patrolling.

Don’t ever think about being lazy. I know that as a 35-year-old man, you have your own weaknesses, and that is your wife and children!
So, you'd better do your job honestly.

After all, it's hard to find a job these days. If you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will!"

Game pop-up prompt:

[Time Management Challenge Opens: As a night shift security guard, you have a tight schedule. When patrolling the floors, you need to complete all tasks within the specified time. Otherwise, you will be punished by the manager and fail the game.]

[First mission: Thoroughly inspect the 1st floor. Time limit: 15 minutes. Countdown begins...]

Barrage Tucao:

"Wow, they don't allow overtime after midnight. What a conscientious company!"

"The tone of this manager's message is disgusting. It's exactly like the department head in my company."

Chun Hei glanced at the surveillance monitor and murmured:

"From the footage, it does appear that there are still people inside the building. Anyway, let's start with the first floor, patrol in order, and then close the door."

At this moment, there was an unusually harsh noise outside——

squeak - creak -

The sound seemed to be the sound of tables and chairs being moved, or like someone scratching a metal plate with fingernails.

It scared Chun Hei and the audience again.

Some viewers complained:
"Nah, didn't Taoyuanxiang say that this was a heartwarming game that enriched daily life?"

"Just tell me whether it's a rich experience or not."

Chun Hei looked up at the clock in the security room, which showed 0:5 in the middle of the night.

My dear daughter is still waiting at home, so finish your work early and go home.

……

He held up a flashlight, and the beam swayed in the dark corridor, illuminating deep shadows.

He began to open the office doors one by one. Every time he pushed the door open, the creaking sound was particularly harsh in the silence.

In the office, the dim emergency lights cast mottled shadows, and the lifeless photos hanging on the wall cast strange shapes under the flashlight beam.

"This is just an ordinary part-time job game, don't scare yourself."

Chun Hei comforted himself and began to check the equipment in each room and close the door.

As Chun Hei passed by an office, he suddenly heard a faint whisper, which sounded like the wind blowing in the distance.

This whisper is particularly obvious in the high-fidelity stereo headphones that come with the VR device.

He slowed down his pace and focused the flashlight on the crack in the door, trying to see everything in the room. There was still no one in the room, but the whispers seemed to become clearer.

Chun Hei felt a slight chill in his heart and shuddered.

But he still mustered up the courage to open the door.

There were some documents scattered on the desk and the standby indicator light on the computer screen was flashing.

He suddenly felt a chill.

The room was extremely cold, and the air was filled with a damp smell.

This dampness and coldness are also conveyed to the pure black of the real world through the sensory controller of the VR device.

Pure Black exclaimed, "It's hard for me to describe this feeling to you. I've been playing games for so long, but this is the first time I've had this kind of sensory experience."

The audience watching the live broadcast were also amazed:
"The image is so detailed and realistic that I can feel the chill of the building."

"As expected of a paradise, VR technology is really getting better and better, even better than that weird little country simulator!"

"With this kind of scene and atmosphere, I feel like I'd be completely sucked into the game if I played it myself. It would be too scary if a monster suddenly appeared."

"This truly opens up a new gaming experience. I don't want to play traditional horror games anymore."

"Damn it! Why is it so hard to get the qualification? I want to try on VR myself and experience it myself."

The whispers were getting closer, behind a small door inside the office.

Pure Black held up the flashlight and swallowed.

"who is it!"

Chun Hei roared and kicked the door open!
I saw a man in a suit standing in front of the company's performance report, thinking and talking to himself from time to time.

It seemed that the whispering sound was made by him.

The intrusion of pure darkness did not affect him at all, and he continued to drink his coffee calmly.

"Ah, it's the new security guard."

"Hello, it's time to get off work." Chun Hei breathed a sigh of relief and tried his best to keep a calm tone as he spoke into the VR microphone.

After all, the effect of clearing the field will also affect the final game evaluation, and he hopes that the other party can cooperate.

The people in the room looked down at their watches:

"It's already this late, and the performance report hasn't been completed yet. Looks like I'll have to put some pressure on my subordinates tomorrow."

The man put down his coffee cup and left the room.

The barrage began to flood the screen like crazy:
"Oh my god, I was scared to death. I told you, this is just a normal game."

"But you, as a manager, are really overdoing it. Not only are you dragging yourself down, but you're also dragging your subordinates down with you."

Chun Hei also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and grumbled self-deprecatingly: "I kicked out all the overtime workers, so my work doesn't count as overtime, right?"

……

Next, Chun Hei continued to lock the doors of each room one by one.

At this moment, there was another strange clanging noise coming from above the building, which scared everyone.

In particular, VR devices are equipped with headphones that simulate real sound fields, and the effect is outstanding.

Pure Black complained: "Where did this B noise come from?"

When I turned off the light in the toilet on the first floor, the game popped up a prompt:

[Congratulations, you completed the inspection of the 15st floor in 1 minutes. Please continue to explore more floors.]

The comments in the live broadcast room also seemed relieved:
"It seems I'm overthinking it. Based on the usual patterns of Taoyuanxiang's past works, this should be a relaxing and healing game... right?"

Chun Hei was about to take the elevator to the second floor, but when he got on the elevator he found that the building had a total of 11 floors!
Pure Black was stunned: "Damn, I'm not going to do all 11 floors, am I?"

After reaching the second floor, the overtime song stopped and the whole air was silent. Chun Hei felt that he would be a little panicked without music.

With the experience of the first floor, Pure Black was much faster when locking the second floor door.

However, as he was inspecting a dark room,
suddenly!

A woman with disheveled hair appeared in the corner of the office!

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Pure Black screamed again in fright.

The barrage is also crazy:
"Fuck, I was scared by the anchor again."

"Is this woman the same woman in red that I saw when I first entered the building?"

However, when everyone took a closer look, they found that she was just an ordinary office lady.

She was wearing a black silk skirt and was organizing documents with her back to the protagonist.

Hearing the man's call, the woman turned around and said with a smile: "What's the matter?"

Male protagonist: "No...it's nothing, you should go home."

The woman didn't pay attention to his words, but twisted her slender waist and gradually approached the male protagonist.

"Ah, you're not the new security guard, are you? Haha, you're so handsome."

When the woman approached, the VR device began to spray a scent similar to that of a mature woman's perfume.

The male protagonist coughed dryly: "I'm sorry, ma'am, I'm a family man."

The beautiful mature woman raised her lips and smiled:
"Don't say that. Let's exchange contact information. If you don't give me your contact information, I won't go back."

The mature woman took the man's hand and put it in her arms.

The bionic silicone material of the operating sensing gloves simulates a wonderful skin touch and elasticity.

Feeling this softness, the male protagonist was stunned for a moment. The other party had already picked up the male protagonist's mobile phone and actively scanned WeChat.

The barrage music is crazy:
"Hahahahahahaha, anchor, please watch your expression."

"Speaking of which, if I get the contact information of the black silk mature woman, can I really unlock the hidden bonus plot?"

After adding WeChat, the mature woman picked up her bag contentedly and blew a kiss to the male protagonist:

"I will never let you regret it. Haha, don't ignore me when I look for you."

Barrage Tucao:

“When will the paid content be unlocked?”

"It seems that the male lead is really handsome."

Pure Black breathed a sigh of relief and complained:

"What's the use of looks these days? Even if you're handsome, you still work as a security guard here, right?
Barrage: "Hahaha, the anchor is okay, he has a relatively clear self-awareness."

After sending the woman away, Chun Hei came to the next empty office area, where an old-fashioned cathode ray tube TV emitted a chaotic pattern of snow.

Pure Black moved closer to the TV screen and clicked the play button. The screen was still snowy and no picture could be seen, but he could hear the sound of a door opening and high heels stepping on the ground in the background.

A young girl's voice came, and she seemed to be talking to an employee:

"Are you still doing this? This is incredible. This manager is really treating you like livestock. I'm going home now. Keep up the good work."

Pure Black judged: "Looks like this is the internal surveillance of this office. Someone is working overtime."

Barrage:

"Even now, I still feel like this company is really good."

“It’s about the same as our unit.”

Chun Hei continued to inspect the restroom on the second floor. Just as he subconsciously turned off the light, a sound from a restroom stall startled him:
"Hey, who is it? What's going on?"

Chun Hei covered his chest and took a deep breath, then said patiently:
"I'm a security guard. Are you still working overtime?"

"...Ah~ Security? Could you please not turn off the lights? I'll do it later."

Chun Hei said in the live broadcast room: "Nimma, no, I can't let you scare me for nothing? I'm going to play tricks on you!"

Pure Black turned off the light in the bathroom.

"I'm sorry, I'll be leaving now."

Barrage: "Hahahahahaha, the host is a bad guy."

……

The host successfully completed the inspection of the 2F before the countdown ended and came to the third floor.

Pure Black: "Why do all the floors look the same?"

Although I was complaining, I felt a little relieved in my heart:
"Taoyuan Township has no experience in making horror games, is that all?"

He was humming a little tune, walking down the corridor with a flashlight in hand, when suddenly—

“GAAAAAAAAA!”

A strange cry came from the roof again, making his blood run cold.

Immediately afterwards, the door behind him suddenly opened with a click, and the atmosphere of horror was instantly filled!
"Ahhhhhhh, sorry, sorry for interrupting!"

Chun Hei was so frightened that he immediately let out a shrill tenor voice, turned around and fled into a dark office area.

Crouching in the corner, weak, lonely and helpless,

suddenly,

Snap!
There was another strange noise in the room.

Pure Black screamed in fright again!
I mustered up the courage to go over and take a look, then breathed a sigh of relief: "What? It turned out to be a lamp that fell to the ground."

The live broadcast room was flooded with comments:
"Damn it! I was almost scared to death by the anchor three times in just a few minutes."

"The anchor compensated me for my medical expenses."

Chun Hei calmed his mind a little and continued to patrol the conference room. Suddenly, the sound of metal being dragged came from the ceiling again.

It was like someone dragging a heavy weapon.

Pure Black was immediately furious: "Fuck, what the hell is going on upstairs? I've been putting up with you for so long!"

Later, in the conference room on the third floor, he also found a cathode ray tube TV.

Again, you can't see the picture, you can only hear the background sound.

A middle-aged man with a dignified tone said:

“Finish this before tomorrow!

You are not allowed to leave work until the get off work is done. You must be prepared to stay in the company all night!
Ha... What's that look? I'm your supervisor.

Hey, are you listening? I'm warning you, don't let your attention wander!

The male supervisor's ferocious voice came from inside.

Then, the sound of two people arguing was heard.

Pure Black: "It seems like someone is working overtime and can't do anything anymore, so the leader comes over to urge them to work?"

The comments all felt the same: "Poor overtime workers."

Keep turning off the lights in this room. There are constant noises outside.

Pure Black yelled to embolden himself, "Your crappy game, just stop playing with all that squeaking shit, okay? Come if you want to, come if you want to, leave if you want to! Just be straightforward!"

Then, just as he finished speaking, he saw a human figure flash by at the end of the corridor.

The anchor immediately broke down: "I was wrong, I was wrong, don't come over here QAQ."

The comment section went crazy: "Hahaha, the anchor is a real man in three seconds."

Finally, when Chun Hei arrived at the toilet on the third floor and was about to turn off the light,
Suddenly someone in the cubicle said something that made him feel like he was falling into an ice cellar:
"Why did you turn off the lights just now? Didn't I tell you not to turn off the lights until I come out?"
