**Night Two:**

Alex decided to return to work on the second night, driven by his financial need to support his studies and his growing curiosity about the true nature of the place. As he arrived at the library at 10:00 p.m., he quickly noticed that the list of rules had been updated with four new additions:

1. Do not let the computer control itself; destroy it immediately.
2. They will try to communicate with you; do not engage.
3. Do not believe any rule that appears after 3:00 a.m.
4. If any books fall to the ground, place them back on shelf number 6.

Alex placed the list of rules on the shelf beside him, feeling the weight of the night ahead. He had an unsettling feeling that things were about to get worse.

**10:00 p.m. - 12:00 a.m.:**

A quietness fell over the place; nothing happened. Only faint noises reached his ears, like footsteps echoing between the shelves or distant whispers. A chill ran through Alex, but he dismissed it as his imagination. Suddenly, a few books fell from the shelf. Shaking off his fear, he got up and placed them back on shelf number 6, as instructed. He noted the incident in his journal, trying to calm his nerves, then lay back on the couch, trying to relax.

**1:00 a.m.:**

Computer number 5 started behaving strangely, moving on its own. Alex panicked, hesitating for a moment as the computer's screen began to glow brighter, as if an unseen force was trying to control it. "Am I imagining things?" Alex whispered to himself. Deciding to act quickly, he shut down the computer and disconnected it from the power supply, scribbling down what had happened with his heart racing.

**2:30 a.m.:**

Alex felt a light touch on his neck, like invisible fingers trying to grab him. He froze in place, his breath caught in his throat. He remembered the rule and chose not to react, continuing to write down his notes with trembling hands.

**3:00 a.m.: Warnings:**

The phone rang. With a shaky hand, Alex picked up the receiver but remained silent. He heard strange, distorted voices, followed by a warning: "Samuel... beware of..." A sudden, chilling scream echoed through the line before it cut off. Alex stood there for a moment, paralyzed with fear, before noting down the call, feeling the anxiety settle deep inside him.

**3:15 a.m.: Unexpected Messages:**

Several messages appeared on Computer 2. Alex hesitated, "Should I read them?" He remembered the rule and chose to delete them immediately, documenting the event.

**3:30 a.m.: The Manager?**

Samuel entered the room. The sight was unexpected; Samuel seemed cheerful, but his steps were slow and mysterious, increasing Alex's anxiety. He remembered the rule clearly and said in a shaky voice, "Please leave." Samuel took a step back, his eyes widening in surprise: "What did you say?" Alex tried to control his nerves and repeated, "Please leave." Suddenly, the figure disappeared, leaving Alex breathing heavily as he noted everything down.

**4:00 a.m.: A New Rule Appears:**

Alex noticed a new rule appear on the wall, instructing him to open the door to those outside. He hesitated for a moment, then heard knocking, but his instincts told him to stay put, so he ignored the knocking and documented the incident.

**5:00 a.m.: Temperature Changes:**

The temperature suddenly shifted dramatically, from freezing cold to scorching heat. Alex started shivering from the cold while sweating profusely from the heat. He felt like his mind was on the verge of breaking. "This room... it's trying to kill me... the rules... the rules will protect me..." he muttered repeatedly.

**5:30 a.m.: They're Around Me:**

Alex stayed in the surveillance room, noticing numerous people moving around him at a rapid pace. He avoided making any contact with them and ignored their presence, returning to his notes with trembling hands.

**5:45 a.m.: A Failed Escape:**

Alex's mental state deteriorated rapidly. He suddenly decided to flee the library, opened the door to the surveillance room, and headed for the exit, but the door was tightly locked. On his way back, he heard footsteps behind him and quickly jumped back into the surveillance room, locking the door behind him.

**6:00 a.m.: The Second Night Ends:**

Finally, 6:00 a.m. arrived. Alex left the library, his breath heavy, his heart pounding, with no intention of returning. As he exited, he noticed mysterious writing on the surveillance room wall:

"Subject (001) violated three rules on his second night:
1. Failing to destroy the computer led to unauthorized file access - a first-degree mistake.
2. Allowing the 'community' to wander the surveillance room - a second-degree mistake.
3. Attempting to escape - an S-class mistake.

Subject (001) is given one final chance as the first prisoner."

**7:00 a.m.:**

A call came from Samuel to Alex, who was unable to sleep. "You broke three rules," Samuel said. "Be careful not to do so again in the coming nights." Alex angrily threw the phone and shattered it.

**5:00 p.m.:**

By 5:00 p.m., Alex mustered his courage and returned to the library, determined to confront Samuel. He found Samuel waiting for him with a mysterious smile, as if everything was going according to plan.
