“I have been quite happy, thinking that Coco has finally found her friend.”

“But Coco always went out to play after seven o’clock in the evening, and he came back dirty and with little cuts on his arms and cheeks.”

“One time he didn’t come back very late, so I went to look for him with the apartment manager. We searched for a long time and finally found Coco in an abandoned water tank”

“We asked him what he was doing, and he said he was playing hide-and-seek with his friend, Cry.”

“The apartment manager told me that Cry lived in room 1034, which is covered with talismans papers.”

“A long time ago, lots of children go missing, and eventually all the clothes and belongings left behind by those children were found on the third floor, in room 1034.”

“Room 1034 was like a house that ate children, and it wasn’t until later when people completely sealed the doors and windows of the house that things got better.”

“The child called Cry hasn’t appeared for a long time, I didn’t expect him to haunt Coco.”

“I have no choice but to lock him in the bedroom.”

“Yesterday after dinner, I wasn’t paying attention for a moment, and Coco ran out. Only when I chased him to the door did I realize that the door across was half open.”

“Someone opened the closed 1034?” Han Fei feels that this matter is not simple, “Did something happen in this apartment recently?”

Meng Shi thinks for a while and says: “I haven’t seen the apartment manager for a long time, and it feels as if he is disappeared.”

“Apartment manager?” Han Fei has already heard this title more than once, “Who exactly is the apartment manager?”

“He is one of the earliest tenants in this apartment, in his sixties, looking very kind.”

Han Fei suddenly feels that he has seen this man, “Is he the one with all white hair and a black mole on this side of his neck…”

“Right! You have seen him?”

The old man Han Fei has just mentioned is the shopkeeper who had sold him the game helmet!

The old man is not simple! But the information he has now is too little: “Do you know where the apartment manager lives?”

“He lives on the tenth floor, room 1101. Are you planning to go to him for help?” Meng Shi looks worried, “It’s not safe in the stairway, besides we might encounter Cry if we go out now.”

Han Fei keeps the number 1101 in his mind. “To get to room 1101 I have to go upstairs, I’m only level 2 now, the probability of reaching the tenth floor alive is too low.”

Glancing at Meng Shi, Han Fei has an idea. If he can rescue Coco, then Meng Shi should become a companion he could trust.

However, Han Fei is not going to enter room 1034 to look for Coco, what he is going to do is to lure Cry into his house on the fourth floor.

Even if the monster roommate doesn't beat Cry, he and Meng Shi would have time to enter room 1034 and look for Coco.

As long as he gains Meng Shi's trust, then he would have his first real friend in this horrible apartment!

Taking a deep breath, Han Fei says: “I have a way that might be able to save Coco."

“What way?”

“I'll be the bait and lure Cry upstairs, you take this opportunity to enter room 1034, and if Coco is in that house, hurry to bring him out.”

“It's too dangerous!”

“It's not a solution for us to keep spending time here.” Han Fei speaks his true thoughts: “Let's wait for three hours, if after three hours, Cry is still at the door, then we'll do as I say. If Cry leaves, then I'll go upstairs and get the other neighbors to come along and help.”

“But whether you go to lure Cry away or ask for help from the other neighbors, it's very dangerous. Aren't you afraid?”

“I'm very afraid, but there's no better way now.” Han Fei stretches his somewhat cold fingers, “Maybe people are truly brave when they are afraid.”

At this time, a voice in Han Fei's head sounds: “Player ID 0000 attention! [Meng Shi's Friendliness: +10].”
