Choosing incorrectly could lead to eternal damnation. Choosing correctly... might not necessarily lead to something good either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you tell me, how many dirty things are in the house? I can give you more food and water. You can stay longer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The homeless man shook his head:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, I can’t tell you that. I can only take one away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chance to eliminate a ’dirty thing’ without wasting bullets was indeed very important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe someone else would just open the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Wen Xishu didn’t do that. He realized it was a probability problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, there was no doubt that Takahashi Fumihiko and Takahashi Mariko, both in the house, were ’dirty things.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren’t for the homeless man, Wen Xishu would have already achieved a certain balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the homeless man took Takahashi Fumihiko, that would be fine. After all, he had already found a way to extend Mariko’s dormant period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if... the homeless man took Mariko.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he would have to use bullets to sleep peacefully, because the one keeping Takahashi Fumihiko in check, Mariko, would be gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, based on this judgment, the appearance of the homeless man is actually a trap. On the surface, it seems like the homeless man can take away a ’dirty thing,’ which is beneficial to me. But in reality, it might put me in danger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having thought of this, Wen Xishu decisively said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, there’s no dirty thing in my house. I can’t entertain you for now. Please leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Wen Xishu left the door and returned to the living room, continuing to wait for the next visitor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later, the homeless man at the door disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, a scene that made Wen Xishu feel a chill appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The television suddenly lit up. The picture on the television showed the homeless man picking up things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the television added a rule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Homeless people do exist, but there are also fake homeless people. Please identify them carefully. Additionally, whenever the TV adds a rule, it will always be accompanied by a picture.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Wen Xishu had an urge to smash the television.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why didn’t you tell me such an important rule earlier?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Wen Xishu had found it strange earlier, why was there always an image on the TV before, but not for the homeless man?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the TV always had a post hoc style, but just now, it supplemented the rule for the homeless man so timely...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turns out it was all fake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The TV hadn’t been on at all just now. The voice on the TV was just the fake homeless man outside mimicking it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, nearly got deceived by that fake homeless man.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Wen Xishu had noticed the anomalies with the TV, he still believed that scene with the fake homeless man just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But luckily, by calculating the pros and cons, he ultimately refused the homeless man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So those who know the rules... are not just me, but also the monsters outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu felt this sensation for the first time. In the past, monsters were NPCs under the rule mechanism. The rules were a means for players to cheat, iron laws restricting NPC behavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, the monsters on the forty-second floor were almost indistinguishable from players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More like one side attacking, one side defending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could also take advantage of the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they might even know the rules better than you do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the fake homeless man just now, it knew \"the TV can add rules,\" and it knew \"when the TV adds a rule, it will definitely be accompanied by a picture.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, it knew that as the owner of the house, Wen Xishu did not know the second point...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it dared to risk it, pulling such a stunt on Wen Xishu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Wen Xishu had carelessly opened the door, the game would have been over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to think from more angles.\" Wen Xishu reflected on the difficulty of this survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, only fifty minutes had passed. It was just half-past ten now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a certain sense, this was true deep night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Based on my experience, probably after seven in the evening counts as night, and six in the morning marks the end of the night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, not mentioning six more days, just today has only passed for a little over three hours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu could have given up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already found a balance. He, Takahashi Mariko, and Takahashi Fumihiko were in a delicate balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tonight, he could have ignored any knocks on the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now Wen Xishu realized, among those knocking, there might be delivery persons, homeless men... these unique functional existences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Missing them might lead to missing certain choices. It’s possible that there might be some special function individuals knocking later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So every knock on the door at night, Wen Xishu had to pay attention to, at least take a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most crucial point—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are the people? Is there no one in this game? After so many knocks, is there not a single real person?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how bizarre the Deceit Tower was, it ultimately had to involve a certain person, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there were no real people, what would the forty-second floor of Desire Tower be like?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I want to get a high score, I must find a real person. Maybe only then can I get an invitation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That being said, Wen Xishu genuinely felt... at this time, a person’s appearance would be unreasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This night was truly a parade of a hundred monsters. Where could you find a person?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu thought of the maze Takahashi Fumihiko mentioned not long ago in the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed the people and ghosts outside were in a maze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like I need to ask Takahashi Fumihiko more questions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the earlier inside-outside joint attack by the two Takahashi Fumihikos, Wen Xishu had forgotten one thing...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that was to ask the most human-like Takahashi Fumihiko about the outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given that Takahashi Fumihiko was also one of ’them,’ Wen Xishu knew those words might not be trustworthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But still, it was worth asking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just as Wen Xishu was about to ask, a knock came from the door. A new visitor had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>",1074,"2026-06-03T11:12:39.009Z","2026-06-03T11:12:44.450Z",1,"novelbin.me","a981a8dda529e6d921c7c863b39072436759368a4ef83867b1cce4cf39862028","three-towers-game-chapter-366","three-towers-game-chapter-364",1179,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthree-towers-game-cover.jpg"]
