The most important rule of inn is that you cannot leave the inn when you live at night.
In the second half of the night, the deducers used their own methods to test whether this rule was correct or not.
Some people went downstairs and some people walked through the windows, and they all felt a sense of horror from the bottom of their hearts when they were about to leave the inn, and they kept reminding them not to do this.
Finally, Quinn made a straw doll, opened the window, and threw it out.
The moment the doll landed, a drizzle of water suddenly appeared on its body. The water gradually gathered into the doll's mouth and nose, completely wrapping the doll. Not long after, the doll was soaked in water and was broken, losing its function as a sacrifice, turning into a gloomy wind, and returning to Quinn's hand.
"I really can't go out, otherwise this would be the consequence." Quinn's eyes were empty for a moment, probably looking at the prompts on his system panel.
Ren Yi knew the purpose of Quin's offering. The straw doll is similar to a substitute doll, but it can also be regarded as a "warning" tool. By tucking different people's body tissues, including but not limited to hair, nails, and eyes into the straw doll's mouth, you can use this doll to simulate the survival chance of this person in the corresponding environment.
For example, the sirens will not drown in the water, Ren Yi will.
Then after stuffing the sirens' hair into the straw doll's mouth, sink the doll into deep water, and nothing happens to the doll.
Then, Ren Yi's hair is stuffed in, and the doll will appear drowned after being soaked in water for a period of time.
Whether the doll is "dead or not", it is considered a chance to use it. Each copy of this sacrifice can only be used three times. If no wreckage is left at the time of death, the current copy cannot be used anymore.
The result of Quinn throwing the doll out now shows what will happen if he walks out of the inn by himself.
In short, the deducers just stopped thinking about running out.
After Song Xue learned that Ren Yi had seen the shopkeeper again after going downstairs, she put a small eye on the counter. She could see any abnormal movements at the counter.
But no new shopkeeper appeared at the counter.
And somehow, I always feel sleepy when I stay in the inn. Even when Ren Yi asked Song Xue what Song Xue did when they were asleep, he would be so sleepy that he yawned halfway through his speech.
Since when, the deducers who were staying in the same room have fallen asleep one after another.
When Ren Yi woke up again, the hourglass in his sight showed that the time had reached 3:55 in the morning, and there were five minutes left, and the rules at night would disappear.
Except for Song Xue, everyone else woke up, but they didn't seem to have been awake for long, and even their eyes were filled with confusion as they had just woken up, especially Luo Xiangfeng.
The corridor had returned to quietness. Ren Yi touched the copper lock talisman on the door and made sure that no one had come again this time. Then he used the key talisman to hedge the power of the copper lock talisman and opened the door.
The door was empty, and the once crazy ghosts were running away.
Five minutes later, the sky suddenly became brighter.
All the rules disappeared into the sun, and there were slight noises coming from the rooms next to them where people lived.
The residents yawned and stretched their waists to open the door. After seeing each other, they would congratulate each other: "The scene last night was really scary. After listening to it, I felt my heart was about to jump out. Fortunately, you and I are fine, haha, I am so lucky."
"It's not bad. I don't know which unlucky guys were occupied by the room. Alas? Has the outside been cleaned up, why is there no blood?"
"..." Ren Yi looked at it and seemed that all residents were accustomed to it.
——Accustomed to ghosts appearing at night, people will die because of it, and people will be occupied by the room.
However, these residents seemed to think that the people who were occupied in the room were because of their unluckyness.
In other words, these residents do not know that it determines whether they are the key to life or death in this inn, but in fact they are talisman papers that have been artificially pasted.
The uninhabited rooms were quiet and the breath of ghosts could no longer be sensed.
Not long after, someone was going to check out.
Ren Yi was about to follow and take a look, but when he heard Song Xue in the room rubbing his eyes. He woke up a little later than them. He said with a slight silence: "I can actually fall asleep too..."
It seems that no matter whether it is someone who paid the money to live in the inn or the uninvited guest who broke into the inn in the middle, as long as he is in the scope of the inn, he will be caught by the sleepiness.
Ren Yi finally glanced at the situation inside the house with his own eyes. He knew that the three people from the surviving investigation team would not reveal any information to him anymore, so he went out without any nostalgia.
Wait until he gets downstairs...
I actually saw the shopkeeper again.
Moreover, the counter that was smashed by the shadow puppet shopkeeper before was intact.
The residents in the inn greeted the shopkeeper one after another, and the shopkeeper responded with a smile. The atmosphere was peaceful and reflected in the brighter and brighter skylight.
The shopkeeper didn't seem to know what happened last night. When he saw Ren Yi, he took the initiative to ask: "Did you sleep well last night? You only paid a day's room payment, but you can't live today?"
Ren Yi observed the shopkeeper's smile and asked tentatively: "If I said I didn't sleep well last night, would you refund me the money?"
He asked such words with an expressionless face, which was quite intimidating. The resident beside him glanced at him and scratched his head: "I have never heard of the reason why you get back when you are uncomfortable sleeping. Little brother, are you a foreigner? Oh, don't make things difficult for the shopkeeper, haha, who doesn't know that the inn shopkeeper is a Pixiu. As long as you collect the money, you will definitely only enter and not leave."
The shopkeeper also smiled and compensated Ren Yi with a bad idea: "It seems that you encountered something last night, but everyone knew the danger that night. It was the same wherever you went. Please bear it more."
As he said that, he took out a brand new small sachet from the drawer and handed it to Ren Yi: "I guess you won't live with me anymore. I'll give you a small item. I can't sleep well at night. You can put the sachet next to the pillow, which has the effect of calming the mind."
When he got the sachet, the system prompted him to get a [Sachet with unknown function].
"Thank you." Ren Yi nodded, took the sachet, turned around and left.
The shopkeeper now feels completely different from the shadow play shopkeeper last night. Not only is he kind-hearted, but he also doesn't have the annoying gloomy aura he had from last night.
Sure enough, are the shopkeepers in the day and night two different existences? The day is good, but the night is bad?
This memory is coming to an end here. Yu Xing followed Ren Yi's perspective and came outside the inn and suddenly turned around.
That was Ren Yi's unexpected turn.
I saw that the shopkeeper did not have time to withdraw his gaze staring at his back, and the evil inside was fully exposed.
