Chapter 309: 18 Million Points
The elevator doors closed and began ascending.
The Chinese little boy pressed the button for the 25th floor.
Leaning against the corner of the elevator with his arms crossed, the blue-haired Jiang Ran didn't know what he was thinking.
After an unknown amount of time passed.
The blue-haired Jiang Ran glanced at the current floor the elevator was on - it was only the 9th floor?!
Huh? Is this elevator a defective product?
How could it only be on the 9th floor after so much time?
Even worse than those in old residential complexes?
The blue-haired Jiang Ran looked down and realized it wasn't the elevator's problem.
It was the people inside the elevator's problem. He saw that the little boy had pressed every single floor button in the elevator, lighting them all up.
But just lighting them up wasn't enough - after pressing them to light up, he'd press them again to turn them off, then press them to light up again.
The blue-haired Jiang Ran tilted his mouth to the right and made a sound: "Little kid, how did your father educate you? Randomly pressing elevator buttons like this? Doing such immoral things?"
That little boy didn't turn around and completely ignored the blue-haired Jiang Ran, as if he was disdainful.
And that Chinese man who had come up from the 1st floor with the blue-haired Jiang Ran.
Suddenly turned around with a rather intimidating expression:
"I am his father, do you have business with me?!"
Seeing this, the blue-haired Jiang Ran was genuinely stunned: "No way, you came up from the 1st floor, he from the 2nd, one going to the 39th, one to the 25th, and you say you're his father?!"
"Hehe, the 25th floor is the hotel room where my wife is staying. We've been giving each other the cold shoulder recently, so we're in separate rooms, is that not allowed?!"
This Chinese man was extremely aggressive.
The blue-haired Jiang Ran chuckled:
"Allowed, of course allowed. Since you're so mischievous, I'll be mischievous once too."
"I want to congratulate your wife."
This Chinese man frowned: "Congratulate my wife on what? Kid? Are you looking for a beating?!"
The blue-haired Jiang Ran tilted his head and chuckled: "Congratulations to your wife, she'll soon be able to get a new husband and a new son."
After that, the elevator smoothly went all the way to the 30th floor.
The 30th floor elevator doors opened.
The blue-haired Jiang Ran walked out.
And after the blue-haired Jiang Ran walked out.
Before the elevator doors closed.
One could see, in the elevator at that moment.
There were two corpses, one large and one small, lying inside the elevator.
Their condition of death was acceptable, just that their necks were drooping down.
The drooping angle was somewhat creepy though.
Even though this was the blue-haired Jiang Ran's first time out, and he had fought with the old man in Room 301 and even called an ambulance for him.
This didn't mean he was a good person.
It's just that compared to certain alternate personalities, he did indeed appear harmless.
Returning to Room 3003.
That Tai Country person Wannara still hadn't returned.
It was unknown whether he had been gone since yesterday and never returned, or if he had quietly come back.
But the blue-haired Jiang Ran didn't care about these things.
Inside this room, he rummaged through everything.
Finding a piece of white paper and a pen.
Then, he started writing something quickly on the white paper.
And as he wrote, his body suddenly lost control and he collapsed onto the bed.
Fainting.
By the time he woke up again, it was already ten minutes later.
"Huh? Where am I?"
Jiang Ran woke up confused, looking around at the environment - it seemed to still be the hotel room he was staying in.
"Hey, that's strange, wasn't I supposed to be on my way to play on the water slide?"
Jiang Ran's current memory only went as far as him going to the water park with James to experience the water slide.
As for the rest, he had nothing.
Because of this, Jiang Ran habitually had a sudden realization in his heart: "Oh, I understand, it should be that I encountered danger again, and an alternate personality came out? But... that's not right... what danger could there be going to play on a water slide? That staff member named James didn't have any danger warning either?"
Just as he was wondering this.
He suddenly noticed a piece of paper by the bedside.
He picked up this paper and looked at it - it wasn't his handwriting, it should have been left for him by someone else.
Looking again, it was indeed someone else... his own alternate personality...
This paper, from the very first line, had quite the style:
["F***ing Jiang Ran, making us come out every day to help you solve various crises, being your cleanup crew every day!"]
"Uh..."
Jiang Ran scratched his head sheepishly and smiled sheepishly again.
It wasn't really his fault...
He continued reading the letter:
["James that guy is an extremely dangerous person! He's the one messing with you! Think carefully yourself why that thing of yours didn't work on him!!!"]
The content of this paper ended here.
Jiang Ran wasn't sure which of his alternate personalities had left this for him.
But the content left for him was worth thinking about.
Especially the last sentence.
Why didn't that thing work on him?
Was this referring to the Danger Warning System?
Why didn't it give a danger reminder for James, this dangerous person?
Jiang Ran felt this alternate personality was quite good, specially reminding him about this matter.
Of course, he still didn't understand.
Therefore, he sat on the bed and called out to the System in his mind.
The System quickly responded.
Jiang Ran took this opportunity to ask this question - why was there no danger warning for James?!
The System answered: [Reminding the host, the danger warning of the Danger Warning System is divided into three levels.]
[Currently at the first level, it can only provide danger warnings for dangerous people who have personally killed someone.]
[And James has never personally killed anyone. For this type, danger warnings are temporarily unavailable and require level upgrade!]
Jiang Ran was stunned and continued the conversation with the System in his mind.
"No, then why have you never mentioned this before?!"
[Ding! Detected that the host has never asked!]
Jiang Ran was speechless: "If I knew, wouldn't I have asked? Forget it, System, introduce all three levels of the danger warning to me!"
System: [First level: warns about dangerous people who have personally killed someone, and dangerous places.]
[Second level: warns about dangerous people like James who haven't personally killed anyone but use various means to kill people. Because of this, since you haven't upgraded to the second level, even if James has killing intent toward you, there's no danger warning.]
Jiang Ran: "How does James kill people?"
System: [Water slide killings, inserting blades.]
Jiang Ran: "Then I'm curious, if he personally pushes someone down the slide, does that count as him personally killing someone?"
System: [No, it's the blades inside the slide that kill people.]
Jiang Ran: "What if he pushes someone off a building and that person dies from the fall, does that count as him personally killing someone?"
System: [No, the person pushed off the building was killed by their own attack on the concrete.]
Jiang Ran was completely baffled: "No, your System logic is problematic. According to this reasoning, if I hold a knife in my hand and use it to kill someone, that wouldn't count as personally killing someone either? The knife killed them?!"
System: [You personally used the knife to cut him, so it counts as you personally doing it.]
Jiang Ran: "Then if I throw the knife in my hand and it kills someone, does that count as me personally doing it?"
System: [No.]
Jiang Ran stopped talking.
Immediately, he felt this System was sick.
After all this back and forth, it only counts if you personally use your hands or use weapons held in your hands to kill someone?
And why had the System never mentioned such an important thing before?!
Jiang Ran: "Continue introducing the third level!"
[The third level is the final level and can warn about all dangers.]
Jiang Ran: "Don't understand, give an example."
System: [Anything dangerous will be warned about. For example, at the first level, after the host lands on the island, it will only warn that this place is dangerous, points +5, but won't specifically warn where on the island is dangerous.]
[But at the third level, it will warn specifically where on the island is dangerous. For example, when the host approaches that blade slide, they will be reminded of danger. And the host can also use points to query danger situations.]
[For example, if the host uses 1000 points to query the water slide once, they will find out that there are blades inside the water slide.]
After hearing all this, Jiang Ran finally understood.
He sighed deeply.
Then he said in his mind: "Alright, then help me upgrade the danger warning level!"
No choice, he could only upgrade.
If he didn't upgrade, Jiang Ran was afraid he might encounter people like James again in the future.
[Reporting to host, upgrading the danger warning to the second level requires 10 million points!]
Jiang Ran continued the cloud conversation in his mind: "Then how many points do I have now?"
[Detected that host has sufficient points for upgrade! Please confirm whether to upgrade?!]
"Upgrade."
[Ding, congratulations to host for upgrading danger warning to the second level. Please confirm whether host wishes to begin upgrading to the third level?!]
[Upgrading to the third level requires 100 million points!!]
"100 million points? Then how many points do I have left now?!"
[Ding, host used 10 million points, still has over 18 million points left!!!]
"Then these points aren't enough either?"
"Can I get a loan?"
Jiang Ran tried asking.
System: [No!]
Jiang Ran sighed. Since that was the case, he could only upgrade to the second level for now.
Meanwhile, in the live stream room.
Previously, the live stream's main camera had been on the blue-haired Jiang Ran returning to the hotel.
Naturally, they saw the blue-haired Jiang Ran kill that father and son pair in the elevator who had argued with him.
Generally speaking, when normal people have arguments with others.
At most they argue, and if it goes further, they might fight.
But killing someone over a minor argument?
This is something only a pure deranged person would do, right?
If they didn't know this guy was a lab rat.
They would have thought this guy was a deranged serial killer!!!
And because of this point.
That A San the lizard.
Posted a long string of text in the live stream room.
The meaning was simple: he seriously suspected that this Jiang Ran from Hua Country's Alice Apartment was definitely a deranged criminal, a deranged serial killer disguised as a lab rat, intentionally mixed into the team!
As for evidence, those two father and son who had an argument with him were the best evidence!!!a
