Dong Xie and Xia Li searched separately. It was much easier for him to move.
Everyone must remember the seven house rules and will not break them.
And it is not difficult to abide by these rules.
But everyone knows that abiding by the rules will never be the way to survive this bloody mission.
The apartment where he lived often had various bloody missions, and would issue instructions that forced residents to kill each other, or even harm innocent people. There is no resident who has survived to this day without blood on his hands.
So...he can do things that Xia Li would never consider doing.
He came to the lobby on the first floor of the hotel.
Then, he noticed a guest staying alone.
Just when the guest booked the room and was about to leave, Dong Xie walked up to him, stopped him, and said to him in English: "Hello, sir, I have something to discuss with you."
"Who are you?"
"I am an online blogger and I came to this hotel to shoot a video."
The guest became confused and then said: "Oh... I heard that many video bloggers will come here to live broadcast and shoot videos. Hmm? Have you arranged for someone to film me?"
The guests immediately started looking around to see if anyone was taking pictures of themselves with their mobile phones.
"We haven't started filming yet. I don't want to come to you to discuss anything."
"I'm not interested in making videos. I'm here on a business trip. I chose this hotel just because it's easier to get a room here."
"Don't refuse in a hurry. I have a team behind me, so if you are willing to cooperate with me, I can give you a fee."
Then, he added another sentence.
"And it's US dollars. Cash, pay on the spot."
The guest still wasn't very interested. He was obviously worried that Dong Xie was some kind of liar, and said, "No, I don't have the time and energy. You can find someone else."
Dong Xie quickly took out an envelope from his clothes.
"I know you have concerns. I am very good at reading faces. I can see that you, sir, are of upright character, so I came to you. In this envelope is three thousand U.S. dollars. It is considered a deposit. As long as you nod, the money will be
Here it is. As long as you cooperate with me in shooting videos, I will pay you a higher amount of funds. Our team is not short of money, and we will never let you bear any expenses."
You haven't done anything yet, and you're just giving us three thousand dollars?
Dong Xie saw the other person's expression of excitement and immediately thrust the envelope into the other person's hand, and then gave him his mobile phone number.
"After you think about it carefully, just come to me."
Without waiting for the other party to answer, he strode away.
Three thousand US dollars are given to the other party for free. Even if the latter realizes that the money cannot be so easy to earn, greed will interfere with the other party's judgment.
He will actively think that if he is so generous, how much more money will he give himself in the future?
Under this association, greed will become stronger and suppress reason little by little.
Human nature is like this, otherwise why would there be such a few tricks for telecommunications fraud over the years, and people will always fall for it. A piece of "insider information" will make you feel that you are a lucky person, let you make a little money and taste the sweetness first, and then...
I'm not afraid that you gave me real money.
It's just that Dong Xie is more ruthless and vicious than those scammers in northern Myanmar.
About seven minutes later, the person called.
Faster than Dong Xie expected.
"Let me confirm," the man was obviously a little cautious and knew the tricks of fraud, "are you...sure you won't charge me any fees?"
"Of course, you can rest assured. If we ask you to charge a fee, you can leave immediately, and the deposit we gave you before does not need to be returned. If you are not worried, you can still record."
"Then...what's your room number?"
"It's okay, I'll come find you. What's your room number?"
Dong Xie couldn't let a resident with a high sense of morality like Xia Li run into him.
Dong Xie quickly went to the man's room with peace of mind. After the other person opened the door, he took a look at the room. Sure enough, he was the only one in there, no one else.
"Well, specifically, how do you want me to cooperate with you?"
Dong Xie took out a fake business card he had pre-printed and said, "My name is Blake, who is you?"
"Ticha Windan, I am Thai."
Dong Xie thought to himself, he is indeed a Southeast Asian. Southeast Asia, including Thailand, has always been a disaster area for telecommunications fraud. Are these people easy to deceive? It seems that I am not to blame. If you can't touch me today, you will be deceived sooner or later in the future.
People's waist.
If it weren't for the first rule, he would really want to smile now.
"Sit down. Let me explain to you..."
Dong Xie had already planned what to do in advance.
"About twenty minutes later...you and I will make a video call. Of course, I will record the video. Our team is often suspected of fraud by fans, and fans are already very familiar with the faces of our team members. This
That’s why I want to find you, a stranger, to take a video.”
"I see……"
"Have you read the hotel's seven house rules?"
"Well, it's quite strange. But it's not difficult to follow the rules. Just don't laugh. They say it's a haunted hotel. Why are they so exaggerated? Are there really so many people coming to stay? Won't the police come to investigate?
"
Under normal circumstances, of course, the police will come to investigate. But the Scarlet Letter mission in the apartment will definitely affect the police and all public security and judicial systems through the magical power of the law of cause and effect. No matter how many people die, it will only be done perfunctorily.
"Yes, but because of the hotel's gimmick, we have to shoot a video to increase our fans."
"It's not easy for you to shoot videos either."
"So what I want you to do is knowingly violate Rules One and Two."
"ah?"
"To put it simply, you have to laugh, and... you have to knock on the door more than four times." Dong Xie continued: "Originally, I could have done it, but the fans will definitely think that I am faking it. You have to know
, AI is so advanced now that even live videos may be faked.”
"So you want to find me a stranger..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What do you think?"
"Is that all I need to do is make a video call to you, smile, and knock on the door?"
"Well, I could have let you record a video, but the team insisted on arranging a video call. When the video is cut out, it will be more convincing to the fans." Dong Xie spoke very quickly, trying not to let the other party have time to think, "
When the time comes, just walk out the door, knock five times...and then smile into the camera of your phone, and that's it."
This is Dong Xie’s long-planned plan!
Find someone to break the rules and see what the consequences will be! Use this to explore ways to survive the Scarlet Mission!
"It looks like this...it's not difficult. But the house rules..."
"It's impossible for the hotel to kick you out. Afterwards, I will pay you another three thousand dollars."
"You can give so much for such a simple thing?"
"If you think it's too much, I can code your face in the video, and then I can give you less money."
In one sentence, it explains why the money was given more. After all, this video may involve issues of portrait rights.
"Our team has sponsorship behind it, so we won't skimp on this funding."
Just knock on the door, smile, and you can get it for $6,000!
It’s almost like giving it away for free!
Even if he subconsciously thinks there may be a problem, the three thousand dollars he has already received will extinguish his rational thinking bit by bit.
Dong Xie is not worried. If he refuses, he can still find someone else. There will be corresponding monetary rewards for completing the Scarlet Letter mission in the apartment, and he can even overdraw the bonus for future Scarlet Letter missions. Money...he is not short of.
"Okay!" The other party gritted his teeth and said, "But I... I promise you not to code, but you can also knock on the door ten times and laugh for about a minute. Can you give me five thousand dollars?"
Okay.
Anyway, you will most likely lose your life in taking this money.
But Dong Xie knew that if he agreed too readily, the other party would probably raise the price again, and there would be no end. So he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Five thousand... This is a bit beyond the budget. I have to discuss it with the team.
, just wait."
Then he picked up the phone and pretended to be typing, observing the other party's reaction.
Finally, after some "bargaining", the deal was settled with a final payment price of US$4,000.
I also recorded a voice to ensure that I would keep my promise.
Then...Dong Xie was waiting for the other party's video call!
