From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life

Chapter 6: Old Players in Novice Dungeon

Apart from the snowstorm, the biggest threat to him right now is probably the figure who found his home.

Tian Yu thought about it. This person rented the house downstairs from his home on the day of the countdown to his novice copy, and was able to sneak into Aunt Zhang's house quietly, and then came to his door. At that time, he clearly saw this figure at the door, but he could not be captured in the range covered by his own surveillance.

Points! Redeem!

In the experiment just now, Tian Yu was unable to use the 60 points he had currently obtained. Perhaps it was because his novice copy had not been completed and some corresponding functions had not been enabled. Points could only be obtained by entering the copy or by other players. The figure was most likely an old player.

So how did he find the location of his home? Was it because of the system prompt or because of the points?

He rented the house downstairs from his home, which means that he did not update and track his location in real time, but it does not rule out that he had other means to find the small villa.

That secret method that is not captured by surveillance may be able to bypass the more complete surveillance in the foreign building.

Tian Yu realized that this person's existence was a threat to herself. Her mission was to confirm the player's identity, while other players might have other missions, including - killing herself!

Marking the item "Mysterious Player" on the notebook in red, Tian Yu has already regarded him as the number one threat.

She rubbed her brows. Even though the house was still warm, Tian Yu felt uncomfortable with the feeling of being stared at. Fortunately, she had also discovered the other party's existence, and it was not certain who was in the open and who was in the dark.

After cooking herself a bowl of hot noodles, Tian Yu turned on the surveillance camera of the old house. She was not sure whether the player had entered the house, so she used the surveillance camera to carefully observe the many mechanisms she had set up in the house. If one was not careful, these positions would be stepped on, leaving traces that someone had entered the house.

"It seems that his method is just similar to stealth." After confirming that no one entered the house, Tian Yu had a guess in his mind.

Looking back at his own tasks, the first task is needless to say. If you cannot survive, you will lose your life. As for the next two tasks, Tian Yu found that there was no mention of any punishment for not completing the tasks. He also didn't know whether it was the case in his novice copy or if it was the same for everyone.

According to Tian Yu's idea, he would do the mission if he could, but he would never sacrifice his safety to do the mission. After all, his life was the first priority. But now the threat of the "mysterious man" was in front of him, and even if it was not for the mission, he had to find out who he was.

When you open your phone, WeChat is already filled with all kinds of news about the sharp drop in temperature. Some people are panicking while others don't take it seriously, but more people are starting to stockpile supplies.

Linhai City rarely experiences extremely cold weather, which has led to a severe shortage of cotton-padded jackets and coats. Opening his circle of friends, Tian Yu saw that some people had already started reselling cold-resistant items.

Sliding through the contacts on his phone, Tian Yu found Aunt Zhang's name and called her.

"Hello? Aunt Zhang, the temperature suddenly dropped today. I don't know why the water supply in my house suddenly stopped. Do you still have water on the third floor?"

"Oh, the temperature suddenly dropped today, so my son and my husband decided to move to a new house. You don't know, my son was afraid that we would not be comfortable living there, so he specially installed central air conditioning..."

When talking about her son, Aunt Zhang couldn't stop talking. Tian Yu held her forehead and interrupted her in time: "I saw someone moved in on the fourth floor. I don't know if his house has water cut off."

"Are you talking about the young man on the fourth floor? He looked very polite. I met him the other day when I came back from buying groceries. He even asked me who lived in the building and said he wanted to go and say hello."

"What kind of people can live in an old community like ours? I think this building is only occupied by retired employees, and they may not be there when you visit." Aunt Zhang is worthy of being one of the mainstays of the Tree Shade Chat Group. Once she starts talking, she can't stop.

Tian Yu was also happy for her to talk more, so he followed up her question and asked, "He just moved here alone?"

"Of course not. I was quite surprised when I met him the other day. There is no school nearby, so how could a college student live here?"

"College Students?"

"Yes, he gets up early every day. I met him when I just went out to buy groceries. He wears glasses and carries a schoolbag every day. He looks timid. If this isn't a college student, what is he?"

Tian Yu silently noted down these characteristics: "Maybe he works nearby. Renting here is cheaper."

"That's true, but you told me the other day that the temperature would drop, and I didn't expect it to come true!"

“I also heard it from my former classmates.”

"A classmate from the police academy? Did he tell us any news?" Aunt Zhang asked anxiously.

"No, just be prepared. The temperature drop should last for a long time."

"Oh, then I have to buy more food quickly, you don't know..."

Seeing that Aunt Zhang was about to start her long speech again, Tian Yu quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Aunt Zhang, do you have the contact information of the young man downstairs? I want to ask him if there is a water outage at home."

"No, if that doesn't work, go downstairs and knock on the door to see if he's home. At this time, he's probably back."

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Zhang."

Before hanging up the phone, Tian Yu suddenly asked, "Aunt Zhang, where did you buy the mangoes you gave me last time? They were quite sweet. I want to buy some more."

"Mango? Oh, we can't buy mangoes at home. Xiaoli is allergic to that thing..."

Tian Yu let out a long sigh. It seemed that Aunt Zhang was indeed fine. She picked up the pen and wrote behind the mysterious man marked in red: male, wearing glasses, relatively young, had been out before 8 am, carrying a schoolbag.

After searching through the address book, Tian Yu dialed the number again: "Hello? Brother Liu, this is Xiaoli, yes, yes, Aunt Zhang's daughter-in-law, is the house upstairs from our house the one you rented to him?"

"I don't know what's going on with their family. Water has been dripping into my house today. It's the one wearing glasses!"

"I knocked on the door but there was no response. Do you have his contact information so I can call and ask?"

"Thank you, Brother Liu..."

After writing down the information just asked, Tian Yu opened the monitoring software and selected his car.

The car had been parked downstairs of the old house. On the one hand, it was not very helpful for her to stock up on goods, and it could create the appearance that she had not gone out. On the other hand, it was because it would serve as Tian Yu's other eyes. Being such a cautious person, she naturally had to equip her car with strict surveillance.

After selecting a time period and replaying the video according to the time when Aunt Zhang went out to buy groceries, Tian Yu finally found the figure that matched the description.

This man really looks like a college student. He is about 1.7 meters tall, wears a pair of glasses, and always carries a gray backpack. His hair is a little messy, and it can be seen that he is not a person who likes to dress up. Even the clothes he wears are extremely ordinary.

Such a person is just like a random passerby whom you would not normally pay attention to, and it is difficult for people to be alert.

Printing out the screenshots of the photos in which he appeared and sticking them on his notebook, Tian Yu looked over the information he had collected so far.

"Li Xin? Is this your real name?"
