After pleting the D-level tasks for several residents on the fourth floor, Qin Nuo took a day off to rex.

  The day, Qin Nuo focused his thoughts on the clue he obtained from the task.

  The rooftop water tank.

  He had to check it out.

  After all, pleting the main task of this instance was Qin Nuo's goal.

  Everyone has a petitive spirit.

  Who wouldn't want to get the MVP rating?

  So, he had to deal with the old ndlord, sihe key was in his hands.

  On his way downstairs, he uedly ran into the bulky pyer known anonymously as "Bck Bear."

  pared to the first day of the game, he looked much worse, his oninant aura almost pletely worn away.

  Moreover, his right eye was bloodied and shut.

  "How did you lose an eye?" Qin Nuo asked directly.

  As if his sore spot had been touched, Bck Bear's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Don't you dare mock me. Even though I lost a least I got a clue and identified the killer hiding in the apartment."

  "You know who the killer is?" Qin Nuo was stunned.

  It's only been two days, and this progress is a bit fast!

  Bck Bear sneered and walked away, clearly unwilling to share the fruits of his victory with Qin Nuo.

  Qin Nuo blinked and pondered as he went downstairs.

  In the lobby, the old ndlord was, as usual, sitting there pying chess by himself.

  Qin Nuo walked over and smiled, "Old man, have you eaten?"

  "Get to the point."

  "Do you have the key to the iron door on the rooftop? I want to go up a some fresh air," Qin Nuo said.

  "I have the key."

  "Py a game of chess with me, and if you win, I'll give it to you."

  The old ndlord didn't care about such a flimsy excuse, straightened his body, and his cloudy eyes shoh a bright gleam.

  Apparently, after losing the st game, he had recovered from his depression and frustration.

  He regained his fidence, and with a wave of his hand, the messy chessboard was ly arranged.

  "Alright, old man, if I win, you have to keep your word." Qin Nuo sat down.

  "This time, you won't win..."

  After saying that, he hesitated for a moment and added, "At least, you won't win so easily."

  However,

  Five mier.

  The old ndlord looked at the chessboard and fell into a gloomy silence again.

  His regained fidence was shattered once more.

  On the chessboard, Qin Nuo's pieces had almost all advanced.

  And the red side, just like st time, was left with only one king!

  Surrounded on all sides, with enemies everywhere.

  It was truly a "king" in distress!

  Qin Nuo looked at the old ndlord's existential crisis expression and patted his head.

  Tsk, why am I so g iional intelligence?

  Did I have to win so brutally?

  This old man is a big e, who knows when I might need his help iure!

  "Old man, maybe you're not in the best state, how about we py aname?" Qin Nuo suggested.

  "Not in the mood, I o review the game."

  The old ndlord said with a sullen face, casually tossing the key to Qin Nuo.

  Well, one game of chess, and all the favorability was gone.

  Qin Nuo got up, bid farewell to the old man, auro the stairway, only to be stopped by someone.

  Bck Rose was wearing a bck gsam today, her sexy figure even more pronounced. "Yoing to the rooftop?"

  "Just to get some fresh air," Qin Nued.

  "Don't treat me like that old man."

  "Yoing to the rooftop, it must be reted to the main task clue."

  Qin Nuo was a bit surprised, "You have a clue too?"

  "The sed instaask I pleted yesterday provided a clue, the rooftop water tank," Bck Rose said.

  Qin Nuo eechless, "This clue is shared, it's exactly the same."

  inally, after Bck Rose got this clue, she spent a whole day trying to get the key from the old ndlord without success. She didn't expect to run into Qin Nuo, leading to this se.

  "Let's go, let's go up together," Bck Rose smiled.

  Qin Nuo was quite unwilling, but remembering how he used her body to lure the scumbag ghost st night, he felt guilty and didn't refuse.

  "I heard Bck Bear identified the killer in the apartment?" Qin Nuo asked as they went upstairs.

  "Not sure."

  "That guy got into a flict with a reside door yesterday and lost aoday, he suddenly got excited for no reason," Bck Rose said lightly.

  Qin Nuo thought of the shadow ohird floor yesterday, w if he should ask Bck Rose, but ultimately dismissed the idea.

  Better to check out the rooftop first.

  The iron door on the rooftop was rusty, and the lock was corroded. It took quite a bit of effort to open it.

  On the rooftop, there halt everywhere, and it was rown with vegetation. Although it looked green at a g felt lifeless and dead.

  Uhe gray sky, the two of them came to the railing.

  For the first time, they looked down at this so-called Horror World from a bird's-eye view.

  "Isn't it shog? This is the face of this world."

  "What you see is just the surface. This apartment is like our umbrel. Within the instance range, we follow the game rules, and the ghosts won't touch us."

  "But once we leave the apartment, all these rules bee invalid, and we instantly bee rats crossing the street, ready to be devoured at any moment!"

  Bck Rose spoke to Qin Nuo in a seasoone.

  She had once left the instance range in a previous instance, and in just two minutes, she was scared to the point of rolling back.

  It was a shadow she couldn't shake off for the rest of her life.

  A wless nd, life treated like dirt, humans no lohe masters, just mere food on the chopping block.

  She wanted Qin Nuo to feel this sense of insignifid despair.

  But Qin Nuo, with a rexed expression, said, "It's just leaving an instance, I've been out."

  "You've been out?" Bck Rose was shocked.

  "The first instance, I was forcibly sent in."

  "At that time, the boss sent me on a busirip, so I went. When I got on the bus, some ghosts had ideas about me, but after I beat them up, they sat back down obediently," Qin Nuo said nontly.

  These words left Bck Rose speechless.

  Forcibly sent into an instance.

  Leaving the instahout a proteeism!

  How did he survive?

  Qin Nuo looked at Bck Rose's expression a like ughing.

  If she knew he had a venieore business in the Horror World, what expression would she have?

  "Do you men always like t?" Bck Rose, after rec from her shock, turned sullen, as if she had been insulted, and said in a deep voice.

  However, despite her words of disbelief, Bck Rose quietly watched Qin Nuo's expression, seemingly trying to catething.

  "Believe it or not."

  "I'm not in the mood to discuss this with you."

  Qin Nuo couldn't be bothered to expin, turning to walk towards the water tank not far away.

  There was only oer tank on the rooftop, already rown with pnts.

  Qin Nuo jumped up and used Ghost Power to directly lift the crete sb and fling it aside.

  Bck Rose watched as the crete sb was flung several meters away like garbage, shattering upon impact, her eyebrows furrowing, her eyes narrowing slightly.

  In fact, since Qin Nuo dealt with the scumbag ghost yesterday, she had started to have suspis.

  Whether it was the secret of the Half-Ghost, or his calm handling of the instance, and his rich experience.

  Qin Nuo's performance had nothing to do with a newbie!

  Now, with those words just now.

  Bck Rose could almost clude.

  "This Phantom is not a newbie."

  "He's a hidden big shot!"
