Chapter 13 Rules in the Town
Chapter 13 Rules in the Town
On the hillside a few kilometers away from Green Lake Town.
A group of 'gentlemen' in well-fitting suits are using different means to observe the situation in the small town.
One of the uncles with a big belly and a dangerous hairline commented softly:
"It seems that many famous families participated in this month's assessment. Is it too harsh to set it in [Green Lake Town]... If the risk is too high, high-quality talents may be lost."
At this time,
A white-haired old man with his hands behind his back and an owl on his shoulders replied:
"I would rather raise the screening threshold than invest resources in the weak who cannot solve crisis events.
The city's population has almost reached its upper limit.
The supply of "hide" has already started to fall a few months ago.If this continues, it will be difficult for the organization to provide effective gentleman training, and the internal balance will be disrupted.
If Teacher Siman is dissatisfied with this, he can put forward his opinions to the senior management. "
The chubby teacher Siman quickly raised his hand to apologize,
"Professor Chamberson, I'm just making an objective evaluation, and I have no opinion on the location of your assessment.
If there is a danger that is much higher than the assessment, I hope everyone present can take action to suppress it as soon as possible. "
"It's inevitable."
at this time,
The white-haired old man noticed a special young man who did not choose to form a team, but walked alone in the streets of the town.
Its dark clothing design, the fleshy balls rooted on the shoulders are more conspicuous.
"Mr. Siman, this young man doesn't seem to be recorded in the assessment list? He doesn't seem to have any obvious signs of family or school."
Siman was in charge of personnel affairs, and his eyes fell on Yi Chen.
"Oh! It's indeed a strange face, this person should be an examiner who was temporarily added today.
The referrer was Wilbert Astorga, the person in charge of [Seven Days Cemetery]. The Raven in the cemetery specially sent a letter requesting to participate in this month's assessment. "
When Chamberson heard the name, he seemed to be caught in a memory,
"Wilbert... this kid is quite withdrawn. During his studies, he had almost no friends and walked alone. In the end, he won the qualification to establish a cemetery with his own strength and lived alone.
A person like him would actually introduce talents to the organization. "
Between the two chatting,
The other gentlemen also noticed this lone young man, and he deliberately chose a hotel that was not quite right.
"Without "skin" decoration,
Just relying on the senses of ordinary people, has already caught the abnormality in the small town, and actively approached the danger?This young man is kind of interesting. "
As the temporary person in charge of this assessment, the white-haired Chamberson originally came here with the attitude of carrying out the task.
The young man from the cemetery aroused his interest.

【Green Shade Hotel】
Yi Chen is holding an aluminum sheet key, engraved with【#0206】
Aim at the lock that is full of mottled scratches, and the internal machinery emits the sound of unlocking that matches the gap between the teeth.
Creak~ The door opens.
The diamond-shaped carpet covered the room, and the dust was firmly sealed under the fluff of the carpet, making it barely tidy as a whole.
Not a spacious room,
There is a 1.5-meter-wide wooden bed, and the dark bedding covers up the stains left by the previous tenant as much as possible.
The vertical glass windows are covered with newspapers with the headline 'Green Lake Town' to prevent sunlight from entering.
There is still a piece of clothing hanging on the wooden coat rack by the window, as if the previous resident left too hastily and forgot to take it away...or, in other words, didn't leave at all.
tick~
The sound of dripping water can be heard from the bathroom on the right side of the door.
After inspection, it was found that only the shower was leaking, and the whole bathroom was covered with a layer of water stains, damp and cold.
"Huh... let's take a break first."
Yi Chen didn't dislike it either, and sat down on the soft edge of the bed.
Grab the "Green Lake Town Leaflet" on the bedside table.
On it was drawn a map of Green Lake Town,
The whole town is built around the lake in an inverted [L] shape.
The busiest town centers are located at street intersections.
There are also some benefits for foreign tourists written on the back of the leaflet.
1.绿湖镇每日13：00-17：00会提供免费乘船服务，任何旅客均可享受。
*No more than 1 boat ride per day,
*This service will not be provided at night. If you receive a boat invitation at night, please reject it immediately and report the situation to the Public Security Bureau in the town center.
2. Green Lake Town provides tourists with "natural green water" collected from deep springs in the lake every day, which can remove impurities in the body and improve physical fitness.
*Green Lake is the source of the heart of the town. Waste is prohibited. Once the green water is received, it must be drunk.
*The staff who provide green water for free must wear green overalls. If you encounter other people offering green water, please be sure to refuse.
3. Green Lake Town holds a bonfire party in the town every night, providing delicious local food for free.
*Participants or passers-by must wear masks.
*During the party, if you find anyone not wearing a mask, please move away immediately and report to the Sheriff's Bureau.
*The evening will never, ever be held outside of the town center.
Yi Chen stared at the words on the leaflet with a serious face, and muttered:
"These things are somewhat similar to the employee manuals in the cemetery, and they are all something like [rules]... Once violated, it may bring dire consequences.
Is this kind of rule-like thing very common in this world?
Moreover, the 'rules' of the leaflet only touch the surface of the town and are relatively broad.
Some details about the interior of the town were not mentioned, such as the hotel I am currently in..."
at this time,
There was a creeping sensation in Yi Chen's body,
The furry black sphere crawled out along the cuff and landed firmly on the bed.
It opened its big mouth with white teeth and made a strange sound.
"[Rules] are set by you humans to reduce, avoid disease, and avoid danger.
Pathogens hidden in this world can spread through any channel and in any form,
It can also be embodied as a certain entity, influencing and invading individuals through some interactive behaviors.
If you can act according to certain rules, you can reduce the probability of becoming sick to a certain extent and reduce the possibility of dangerous events.
It is only to reduce, not completely eliminate,
If you really want to eradicate the danger, you have to rely on strong means.
That's about it...
After all, my memory comes from Cemetery No. 6 in the cemetery, obtained by integrating brain fragments, and I don't know much. "
"Who discovered these rules?"
"It should be a prophet among us humans, or some gentlemen with predictive ability? I don't know too well."
"Well, these are all things for later, let's start investigating according to the hotel in front of us.
Try to figure out what's wrong with the small town. "
When it comes to this,
Little Putao's eyeballs rolled between her teeth, and she said excitedly,
"Hmm...I can feel that a serious illness is happening in this hotel,
There must be a greater threat lurking in the depths of this small town... Maybe there are big grapes to eat~ You have to be careful, don't die. "
