Strange Tales of Rules: Taking Care of Roommate's Girlfriend at the Beginning

"Clatter—"

The roller shutter of Warehouse No. 44 was pulled down.

Inside the warehouse, it was pitch-dark as the lights were off.

He Gu entered through the side door of the inner storage area, rushed to Warehouse No. 44, which hadn't opened today, and then closed the door behind him, all in less than half a minute.

Standing behind the door to catch his breath, He Gu took out his phone, turned on the flashlight, and illuminated a small area.

The darkness of the warehouse was silent, giving off a creepy vibe.

He Gu stood in front of a table, using the light from his flashlight to take out a vacuum test tube from his pocket. To prevent the crow's blood inside from coagulating due to air exposure, He Gu didn't open the stopper. Instead, he used a syringe to extract a bit of the crow's blood.

Afterward, He Gu smeared the small amount of crow's blood on the back of his neck and took out a crow feather, not minding the disgust as he put it directly into his mouth.

Having done all this, He Gu quickly walked to the loading dock, took a deep breath, climbed onto the conveyor belt, and, with his butt facing inwards and head outwards, crawled backward into it.

Entering the delivery port, He Gu still felt a bit nervous and didn't dare to look back, just stubbornly retreating.

As his legs entered the passage, He Gu distinctly felt the temperature inside was lower than outside, a chill instantly striking him, causing him to shiver.

In this way, He Gu slowly backed into the delivery passage, until his head was inside.

The moment his head entered the delivery port, He Gu felt as if he had plunged underwater.

All around was silent, as if the delivery passage had completely cut off contact with the outside world.

Maintaining his prone position, He Gu tried to prop up his upper body as much as possible. It was pitch-black and somewhat cold.

Taking out his phone to turn on the flashlight, He Gu was about to survey his surroundings.

As the flashlight came on, several lines of blood-red text appeared before He Gu's eyes.

The sudden sight of the bloody script startled He Gu, but upon closer inspection, he saw it was a few sentences written on the left wall of the passage:

【Rule Eight】

1. No matter what noise you hear in the passage, never look back; (instant death)

2. You can trust the words of the shadow, but never agree to any of its requests other than cooperation; (instant death)

……

Hidden message: In the place you dare not look, in tune with the channel you dare not listen to, lies the truth;

……

After reading these rules, a chill ran down He Gu's spine, followed by a wave of relief.

Don't look back in the passage!

If He Gu had turned on his flashlight any later to see these rules, he might have died without knowing how!

Interestingly, under the effect of The Eye of Truth, He Gu knew that both these rules were instant death rules.

Meaning, both rules were true!
