After walking around a fountain filled with rockeries, Cheng Yu finally saw the only enclosed building on this trip.
It is a building that looks like a synagogue, but it is actually not very big. Looking from the front, it is only about twenty meters wide and only two stories high. I don't know how deep it is, but
Cheng Yu estimated that judging from the width and depth, it would be difficult to exceed thirty meters. It would be a building covering an area of just over an acre. Considering that it has two floors, the total area of the building would be only fifteen hundred meters.
About square meters.
It is precisely because the building is not big, and the road where Cheng Yu and others came, there are dense evergreen shrubs planted on both sides of the road, and there is a fountain with a seven or eight-meter-high rockery in the middle. Therefore, Cheng Yu walked until
After walking around the fountain, I finally saw the building.
Cheng Yu asked: "This house doesn't look big."
Kong Qing replied: "Yes, it is a two-story building with a single floor area of about 800 square meters. The upstairs is slightly smaller because of the terrace. The first floor is a living room, dining room, activity room, game room and other functional rooms.
Except for a home theater on the second floor, the rest are guest rooms. The guest rooms are all suite-style, and the bedrooms are basically about 20 square meters in size. The living room outside is slightly smaller than the bedroom."
"How many rooms are there in total?"
"Including the master room, there are ten rooms in total."
Cheng Yu nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask: "Does this house have a basement?"
"There is a storage room, very deep, about 25 meters below the ground. It is mainly used by Mr. Shi Lei to build a constant temperature room. It is mainly used to store Mr. Shi Lei's wine and cigars. However, today due to the island
We have never entertained so many people at the same time, so the space in the refrigerator is a bit insufficient, so Mr. Shi Lei asked us to put some vegetables and fruits that do not need to be frozen in the storage room in advance."
"It's so deep, how do you get down?"
"Mr. Shi Lei specially built an elevator for that storage room, but the space is not large. It can accommodate at most two people at the same time. If three smaller people can barely squeeze in, it will be really crowded."
"Is there a loft upstairs?"
"No, although this building has a spire structure with a high center and a surrounding bottom, it is mainly used as a thermal insulation layer. Unless the ceiling is lifted, there is no possibility of entering that space."
In fact, if an ordinary guest asked the island owner's assistant like this, he would probably be impatient and would not be able to answer each one in such detail. Cheng Yu's question was indeed a bit too trivial. He just wanted to walk in there.
Before entering the building, I wanted to learn more about the characteristics of this building. If it weren't for the fact that this is just a virtual space, Kong Qing would undoubtedly be used to answer Cheng Yu's questions and be responsible for helping Cheng Yu quickly understand the island.
After all, Kong Qing would definitely choose to say with a dark face: Guest, why don’t you leave your question for Mr. Shi Lei later?
Cheng Yu did not stop. He wanted to continue asking more questions, but the two of them were already standing in the small open space in front of the building, and Kong Qing had already pushed the trolley case in his hand towards Cheng Yu.
Kong Qing said: "Mr. Cheng, I will send you here. The door is locked with a code, and the code is also four eights. Please do it yourself. Since you are the last one to arrive, and the master room is not allowed to stay, I'm afraid
You can only choose one of the remaining two rooms. After you enter, there will be a robot butler in the hall who will answer your questions about the situation in the house."
Cheng Yu was stunned and said, "Why don't you go in with me? The weather is already very bad now. Mr. Shi Lei doesn't have to ask you to leave the island now, right?"
Kong Qing bowed slightly to Cheng Yu and said primly: "We are never allowed to enter this building. The only ones who can enter here are Mr. Shi Lei, his guests, and those robots. Regardless of the weather conditions, we
The most we are allowed to do is this far. Sorry."
Cheng Yu thought to himself that these are some weird rules. If Shi Lei was a normal human being, he would definitely not set such rules. And the reason why there are such strange rules is obviously just for the better development of the plot.
Regarding this kind of thing, Cheng Yu understood that it would never be possible to be pretentious about the game settings.
"Then there's nothing I can do. I'll go in by myself."
Cheng Yu picked up the trolley case and walked up the steps. When he looked back, Kong Qing had disappeared. He didn't know whether it was because the NPC had disappeared after completing the mission, or because his figure at the moment was blocked by the rockery in the fountain.
, so Cheng Yu couldn't see him.
But Cheng Yu didn't have the time to worry about that now. He pushed the trolley case and walked straight towards the door that looked rather heavy and simple.
There was a translucent baffle on the door, next to the door handle, and Cheng Yu could see clearly that there was a numeric keyboard under the baffle.
Lifting the translucent baffle, Cheng Yu reached out and pressed the four eights. The door did not respond. So Cheng Yu pressed the pound key again. The door made a slight mechanical unlocking sound, and a line appeared between the door and the door frame.
Tiny little seams.
With a gentle push, the door opened, and Cheng Yu pushed the trolley case in.
There is a door gap about two centimeters wide under the door. When pushing the trolley case through, I used a little force. As a result, the trolley case fell away after entering the door and slid forward on its own.
Cheng Yu stepped into the door. With the lights on, the room seemed much brighter than outside. However, the entire hall was empty at the moment, making it somewhat eerie.
After closing the door, Cheng Yu quickly caught up with his trolley case and looked at the hall carefully.
The hall is about more than 200 square meters, and if the gate is used as the boundary, it is almost exactly two spaces.
On the left hand side, in the center, is a circle of concave-shaped sofas. On the wall at the top of the left hand side is a large fireplace with a rather Western style. Of course, there is no trace of fire in the fireplace at this moment, and it is also in front of the fireplace.
, is the only side without a sofa. There are three sofas on the other three sides, with a three-person sofa in the middle and a single sofa on each side.
The style of the sofa is very simple, a bit like the simple style of IKEA, without looking exaggerated at all.
Among the sofas on three sides, there is a ring-shaped coffee table with a few cups, some snacks, and some cigars that have been smoked to death.
On the right hand side of the hall, there is a staircase with only two steps. There is a billiard table in the empty space on the steps. In front of the rightmost wall and in front of the innermost wall, there is a table almost standing on top of it.
There are bookshelves on the roof, but not all of them are books, there are also some vases and other furnishings. This is probably a combination of bookshelves and ancient bookshelves.
On the steps on the right hand side, close to the door, is a floor-to-ceiling window that is four to five meters wide. However, the window glass of this window also seems to use some kind of technology. When Cheng Yu was outside just now, he had actually observed it very carefully.
He passed this building, but he didn't see that it was a floor-to-ceiling window just now. He couldn't even see the light inside the house from outside. This seemed to indicate that this floor-to-ceiling window had a one-way perspective from the inside out, and could see from the inside out.
You can see the outside from the inside, but you can't see the inside from the outside. But this doesn't make sense. After all, the role of windows is not only to allow people inside the house to see the outside, but also to provide lighting. If you stand outside, you can't see the inside.
The light is bright, which means that the outside sunlight cannot enter the house through the glass. This design is always a bit strange.
On both sides of the floor-to-ceiling windows, there are two small double sofas, probably for those who play billiards to rest.
Before Cheng Yu could continue to observe the situation inside the house, the sound of a roller came slowly from far to near. Cheng Yu looked intently in the direction of the sound. He noticed that there was a staircase directly in front of him. The staircase reached a height of about two meters.
The place is divided into two parts, the left and right, and then looking up, you will find the corridor on the second floor. The entire second floor only has this circle around the stairs, and the inner space goes directly to the roof. The rest of the floor is the first floor, the second floor, and the second floor.
The building is on the second floor. From Cheng Yu's position, he can no longer see more of the second floor.
The roller-like sound came from behind the stairs, and then Cheng Yu saw something that was more like a washing machine than a robot spinning out from behind the stairs.
This machine is about the same height as a washing machine. It is slightly slimmer than the washing machine, but it is also really limited. The biggest difference between it and the washing machine is probably that there are three small lights near the top.
Two of them are slightly higher and look like human eyes, while the other one is lower and larger, as if it is simulating a human mouth.
The machine seemed to "see" Cheng Yu, and the lower one of the three lights immediately began to flash. At the same time, it also made a not-so-mechanical sound.
"Hello, Mr. Cheng Yu, you have finally arrived. With such bad weather, I am really worried that you will not be able to reach Qindao!"
Cheng Yu scratched his head secretly and thought to himself that you are just a robot. Why are you greeting me like a real human butler?
"Who are you?" Cheng Yu asked pretendingly, but he probably already knew in his heart that this was probably the robot butler in this building.
"My name is Old London. I am the housekeeper of this house. At the same time, I am also the cleaner, gardener, gardener, and chef of the entire manor. Alas, my life is really too hard, such a big man
In the manor, almost all the work is done by me alone..."
Before the robot who called himself Old London finished speaking, Cheng Yu felt deeply that there was finally something unreliable about this virtual space.
In this manor, from the time Cheng Yu entered the useless iron gate, he walked more than 800 steps to get here. Calculated based on Cheng Yu's step distance of more than 70 centimeters, this means that from that iron gate
There is a full distance of six to seven hundred meters to this building. Although the width is limited, the area of the entire manor must be more than 50,000 to 60,000 square meters at least. What's more, Cheng Yu doesn't know that there is another place behind the building.
Is there more space? And in such a large manor, there is only one such robot. Even if it has three heads and six arms, it will be difficult to complete such a large amount of work, right?
Not to mention anything else, just preparing three meals for eight or nine people is an almost impossible task. Especially this chubby old London guy, it doesn't look like a robot that can work. It's a robot.
It seems quite like a dedicated butler who is only responsible for answering questions and chatting with guests.
Seemingly sensing Cheng Yu's doubts, Old London said, "Mr. Cheng, doesn't he believe that I can complete so many roles and so much work?"
Before Cheng Yu could say anything, Old London made a few slight beeping noises. Then, Cheng Yu felt his eyes blurred because Old London, which just now looked like a large barrel, was split into four.
