Weird Rules Rumor: At The Beginning, He Insisted That He Was Not Dead
Chapter 152: A Letter from the Future (3)

Hearing Bai Liang, his senior brother turned his head towards the right corridor and asked with puzzlement, "Junior Brother, to reach the research group, we need to go left. Right leads to the group leader's dormitory. Why are we going there?"

"Senior Brother, I want to see the group leader first," Bai Liang fabricated an excuse on the fly and, without waiting for consent, walked down the right corridor.

Seeing this, his senior brother said nothing, only shook his head and followed him.

"Junior Brother, I'll go along with you this time, but the company has many rules. It's better if I tell you about them so you don't inadvertently do something inappropriate," his senior brother said with a serious expression, looking at Bai Liang.

Bai Liang was a genius for whom the company had spared immense resources to attract. Therefore, sometimes allowing himself a little leeway was not an issue, especially when it concerned such a minor matter as visiting the group leader.

But inside the company, there were many prohibitions, the violation of which could have extremely serious consequences.

Bai Liang possessed limitless potential, and no one wanted such a talented person to make a serious mistake due to his impulsiveness.

Bai Liang smiled slightly and, sweeping his gaze across the space before him, replied:

"Alright, Senior Brother, speak."

After confirming that Bai Liang was listening attentively, his senior brother continued:

"Junior Brother, after you enter the laboratory, the group leader will issue you an access card. This card will be black and contain your personal information. Every time you enter the laboratory, you will need to use this card. Furthermore, access to other areas is also granted only by card, so under no circumstances should you lose it."

"The laboratory opens daily at 8:30 AM and closes at 6:00 PM. Except for special cases, entry into the laboratory is not possible during closing hours."

"The company provides each employee with individual accommodation, and neighboring rooms are never assigned. Entering other employees' rooms without permission is strictly forbiddenthis is very important."

"After returning to your room, always close the door. If you hear a knock on the door while resting, make sure the person behind the door is someone you know. If it's someone unfamiliar, under no circumstances open the door."

"The company's research staff can be trusted, and you may answer their questions, but there is one exception: if anyone asks about the project you are working on, no matter who it is, do not answer!"

"The laboratory building has many floors, and there is a laboratory on each floor. Unless necessary, do not use the elevator to go to other floors."

"The research data located in the laboratory is extremely important. Never take them outside the laboratory."

"Every staircase in the building has floor markings. If you find that the marking has disappeared, immediately go up to the floor above through the emergency exit until the floor indicator reappears on the staircase."

"Your access card should always open the laboratory door. If the card suddenly stops working, immediately leave the building. Only return to the laboratory once you are certain everything is fine."

"All passages in the building are lit twenty-four hours a day. If you notice that the lighting in a passage has broken down, under no circumstances should you enter there. On the walls of each passage, there is a call button. You can use it to call security personnel for repairs!"

"If you see a familiar figure in the company but they do not react to your calls, immediately return to your room, lock the door, and only open it when there are no more sounds outside!"

"These are all the rules I know for now. There are still some that you will have to discover yourself."

His senior brother patted Bai Liang on the shoulder, adding with a slight smile on his face, "One more important piece of advice: if a problem arises that you cannot solve, remember that you can come to me. I will help."

Bai Liang remembered all the rules his senior brother had told him about. It had to be admitted, this was only a portion of the rules, but there were already many.

Compared to other dungeons, the rules for this one proved to be much more complex. No wonder his future self didn't want to spend time writing them down. To fit all the rules on a sheet of paper, a very long text would be required.

However, the abundance of rules meant that this dungeon would be more complex and interesting. Instead of annoyance, Bai Liang felt excitement and thrill.

While he pondered, he and his brother reached the corner of the right corridor.

"Uh... Ah!"

Suddenly, a faint but pain-filled cry reached Bai Liang's ears. His hearing was significantly enhanced, so he easily caught the sound.

Bai Liang immediately quickened his pace, rushing forward. Around the corner, he saw a figure on the floor in the middle of the corridor. The person lay there, pressing a hand to their chest with an agonizing expression!

It was an elderly man with gray hair; he wore reading glasses. His face was contorted in a grimace of pain, his lips were slightly blue, and his hands pressed tightly against his chest.

Not far from him, a small white bottle lay on the floor. The old man tried to reach it with his other hand, but his body wouldn't stop trembling.

Although the small bottle was only a step away from him, covering that distance seemed an insurmountable obstacle.

"Heart attack!" Upon seeing the elderly man's symptoms, Bai Liang instantly understood what was happening. This was not the first time he had seen a heart attack; even in the real world, he had witnessed an elderly person die right before his eyes.

Without losing a moment, Bai Liang rushed forward, picked up the small bottle from the floor, shook out one pill from it, then turned, helped the old man up, and helped him swallow the medicine.

The old man took the pill with trembling hands, and a few moments later, his face, which had been pale, gradually began to regain its normal color. His trembling body also calmed down.

"Professor Zhang!" Bai Liang's senior brother also rushed over to them. Seeing the professor lying on the ground, his expression sharply changed, and he cried out anxiously.

Hearing the voice, Professor Zhang finally came to his senses. He opened his eyes, saw Bai Liang and his senior brother, and a smile appeared on his face.

Looking at Bai Liang, he asked:

"You're Bai Liang, aren't you? I remember you. You saved me today; otherwise, this old man might have died here."

Bai Liang nodded and said:

"Professor Zhang, you're not well, it's better not to talk. I'll immediately call a company doctor to examine you!"

Hearing this, Professor Zhang waved his hand and replied:

"No need for so much trouble. Today, the laboratory project is being launched, and as the leader, I must be there. Besides, this is my old ailment; everything passes after taking the medicine. It's nothing serious."

He tried to get up, but his body was too weak. Seeing this, Bai Liang immediately stepped forward and helped him stand.

"Alright, alright, I'm an old man, but I'm fine," the professor reassured them.

Professor Zhang, looking at Bai Liang and his senior brother, smiled and said:

"The laboratory will open soon, let's go together."

"Of course," Bai Liang smiled and nodded.

Professor Zhang truly seemed to feel better. He no longer needed help from Bai Liang and his senior brother; he walked forward by himself.

From behind, his senior brother looked at Bai Liang with a stunned expression:

"Junior, did you really know in advance that Professor Zhang would have an attack?"
