Original Translations: Crafted with Care, No Unauthorized Reposting Allowed.

The so-called escape room, is a more common type of live-action adventure game where you need to find clues to solve puzzles and leave the room in one or even several rooms.

Find all the clues within the time limit and solve the puzzles one by one to pass the level.

Generally speaking, there are two types of chambers, mechanical chambers and puzzle chambers, the former pass mostly by operation, the latter pass mostly by brain.

Half a month before the mission began, Xiaochi Chi, Benshan Yuan and the Gan siblings traveled together whenever they could, brushing up on the escape rooms all over town.

Solve the puzzle room, Xiaochi Chi 85% clearance rate.

Mechanical chamber with 2% pass rate.

Xiaochi Chi himself was puzzled by such biased data. '

He said to Lou Xi, "I can draw and paint, and I can fix radios by hand, but why can't I play games?"

To Xiaochi Chi, this is a complete mystery.

Super Mary he never played the first level of the bottom, playing competitive hand games can only play man-machine mode, but also with the computer to fight on equal footing, and even once accidentally killed by the computer, angry to delete the game, angry for minesweeper, three times through the senior level, to get back to confidence.

Lou Xi is simply raising his eyebrows these days: "Hee hee hee."

Xiaochi Chi saddened: "Tuan ah, you drifted."

Lou Xi was in a particularly good mood: "You care about me."

Xiaochi Chi's shortcomings are not easy to catch, and manipulating mechanics happens to be Yu Gan's strong suit, so Lou Xi can taunt Xiaochi Chi without worrying about the task ahead.

As he spoke, Xiaochi Chi once again lowered the lenses in his hands and took a few deep breaths to calm his emotions.

The lens is refractive infrared light, to an infrared light through the mirror, refraction to the wall inlaid sensor A, and then projected to the sensor B, and finally fell on the sensor C, ABC three parties are connected, the last door lock will open.

Therefore, the angle of placement of this lens must be extremely tricky.

They arrived in this room fifteen minutes ago.

And Xiaochi Chi has been pairing lenses for 12 minutes, and his eyes are turning into cross-eyed.

Lou Xi is responsible for the sarcastic remarks on the sidelines.

He said, "A year has passed."

Xiaochi Chi holding the lens : "......"

Lou Xi : "Ten years have passed."

Xiaochi Chi said sadly: "Rubbish game, ruined my youth."

Benshan Yuan was not here today because he was working overtime, so Yu Gan couldn't stand it and took the initiative to take over the lenses: "I'll do it."

He spent one minute observing and measuring the angle, then held up the lens and spent another minute adjusting the angle.

With a ding, the final door opened.

Yu Gan lowered his lenses and gave Xiaochi Chi a smile, "Let's go."

The reward for passing is three small plastic white bears that will chirp when squeezed. Xiaochi Chi is upset and simply squeezes it in his palm to take out his anger.

Tang Gan gently smooths the hair: "Pure Yang, don't be angry. My brother will treat you to a good meal tonight."

Xiaochi Chi said, "How many meals has your brother invited. Let's go out for hot pot tonight, and let Lao Yuan treat us."

Yu Gan said, "Let's go to my house and cook hot pot for you."

Xiaochi Chi thought about it and actually agreed to do it.

But he made a request, "I want to eat what Sister Tang Gan cooked."

Yu Gan smoothed out his eyeglass chain to hide his inner disappointment.

And Tang Gan said with a big smile, "Sure."

He didn't ask Benshan Yuan to share Tang Gan's hot pot.

Benshan Yuan was busy with work and came back later than him.

By the time he arrived home, it was ten o'clock at night.

As he put the keys on the bedside table, he heard the sound of voices talking from the inner room.

When pushing open the door, his family lying on the bed of the mandarin-eyed kitten also looked over, beautiful and precious as a jewel eyes look a kind of innocent to the extreme tantalizing meaning.

Benshan Yuan spread his arms and hugged him, the tip of his nose came to his shoulder nest and sniffed lightly: "A hot pot smell. ...... ate hot pot?"

The kitten protested, "I've had a bath."

Benshan Yuan smiled, rested his chin on his shoulder, and rubbed his feet lightly.

The atmosphere between the two is charming and amorous, the apricot-yellow light hitting the two, making them look how like a couple in love with deep feelings.

They should indeed also be a loving couple, have experienced life and death together, is there anything that can tear them apart.

"...... so tired. Hold for a while and feel better." Benshan Yuan asked him, "Who was on the phone with just now."

The little cat cub replied, "Sister Su. She said she was going to a parent-teacher conference for her daughter tomorrow afternoon, so she asked me to cover her shift for an extra hour."

Benshan Yuan kissed his hair: "Forget it this time, next time don't just promise others, or they will all look for you if there is overtime in the future."

"Got it."

Benshan Yuan likes Chunyang Song, who is so obedient, and gets up to take a shower, intending to have a good time with him later.

He hadn't enjoyed that with Chunyang Song for a long time.

However, he had no idea that after he turned into the bathroom, the person on the bed immediately rolled over and got off the floor, rushing straight to the trash can outside, vomiting so much that even the stomach acid came out.

The thing is, he calmly tied the plastic bag, went downstairs to throw a trip to the garbage, and touched his stomach, lamenting that the evening hot pot but there are sea cucumbers in it.

When Benshan Yuan finished washing and pushed open the glass door, he found Chunyang Song waiting outside.

He said, "I still smell a little bit, so I'll wash it again."

Benshan Yuan raised his hand and pinched his nose: "Then I'll wait for you."

But he couldn't wait.

When he lay back in bed, an irresistible drowsiness seized his nerves and put him straight to sleep.

Xiaochi Chi in the bathroom turned off the hypnosis card interface, turned on the water of the shower head to the maximum, closed his eyes and quietly felt the hot water flowing all over his body.

The panel in front of him shows that Benshan Yuan has a favorable rating of 89 and a regret value of 0 for Chunyang Song.

He selected Warehouse from the panel page and took the Locked Spirit Bottle out of it.

Upside down playing with it for a while, he suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "...... Do you believe in karma."

No one answered his question, and all that answered him was the crashing sound of water gushing out.

He smiled and put the items in his hand back into storage again.

In addition to practicing escape rooms, Xiaochi Chi also investigated whether there were any tragic deaths in the vicinity of Jin Hong Mansion.

The results were not very pleasant.

When the foundation of Jinhong Building was just built and it was still a construction site, a murderer roamed here, killed two young workers and hid in the building, but was himself shot by the police who came after him.

This prisoner is a pure psychopath, a fanatic prisoner and abuse - lovers, and even from nowhere to get the inspiration to use the bodies of people he played - to death to grow fungus.

Apparently, even if he dies, he will lie in his coffin and shout out with his decaying vocal cords: I haven't played enough.

This time the ghost, probably will not be like the eighth and ninth world of balloon girls and children like the basic law.

Beyond that, there are many things to worry about.

The difficulty of the escape room is too flexible, and for short flow games, the variables are endless and have nothing to do with the player's luck and status.

And Xiaochi Chi's biggest concern is the people.

If there are many people, the mouth is mixed, and the mouth is mixed, the mind is chaotic.

As it turns out, even if you go to the tenth world, you still can't avoid the peculiar creature of piggybacking.

If only the four of them involved in the okay, only afraid of more people, there will be a haphazard command, with chaotic thinking, or private props, so that everyone has no head to find a gas, a waste of time, and in the end, everyone together to stretch their legs and stare, painting beauty not see.

However, Xiaochi Chi's face was as calm as water when he arrived downstairs in Room 1207 of the Jinhong Building an hour before the appointed time.

He doesn't intend to let those extra emotions interfere with his judgment, and even if he does encounter the worst, he'll be able to see it through.

It was Benshan Yuan who was so excited that he held Xiaochi Chi's hand on the elevator, his palm covered in sweat.

He whispered, "Pure Yang, we'll be out soon."

Xiaochi Chi looks at the elevator numbers that keep jumping up and down.

The shiny silver elevator walls reflected his cold eyes.

But his voice was as cheerful and hopeful as ever: "Well."

After entering the room named "lost field" escape, they lied about waiting for a friend, and the responsible shopkeeper to see they do not look like any social loafers, also did not care much, head down to play his game to go.

Benshan Yuan was so excited and hot that he excused himself to go to the toilet and took off his shirt in front of the mirror.

He already has nine clear engravings on his back, leaving only one against the tailbone or a dense, unformed black mist.

Over the past two years, he did not dare to enter the bathhouse, did not dare to go swimming, even a change of clothes also have to sneak, always afraid that the task will take his life, where is the life of a person should live?

Now well, they are just one step away from success!

One step away!

After today, he, Benshan Yuan, will be free and will not be bound by this damn system anymore!

Xiaochi Chi played a game of draw with herself outside, using her fingertips to tap out the blocks that were placed vertically, and then pulling out the blocks on the other side to distract from the anxiety that might arise while waiting.

With 30 minutes to go before the mission began, the man they were waiting for arrived.

The other side is also an alliance of four people, two men and two women.

Because the same is the tenth mission, everyone knows what it means after this pass, so despite the best efforts to conceal, the heartfelt joy and nervousness can never be suppressed.

Xiaochi Chi frowned slightly.

...... This kind of eager mindset is not something you should have before escaping in a secret room.

The four soon locked up Xiaochi Chi's group, sat at a table with them and climbed into conversation.

The leader of them is a wheat-skinned man, eyebrows hanging high, mean-spirited phase full, just sat down is a rebuke speech: "First of all, after going in, everything must listen to me."

Benshan Yuan doesn't quite agree: "I think we should work together, and there is no such thing as 'listen to whoever'."

The man said, "Cooperation is cooperation, but there is always a need for a leader."

Benshan Yuan is noncommittal and turns his head, seeking Xiaochi Chi's opinion with his gaze.

Xiaochi Chi said with a calm demeanor, "Then I'll do what you want."

Yu Gan Tang Gan also voted "indifferent", the man's face soothed a lot, and introduced themselves to their side of the people.

This team combination was met in the first mission and has been a teammate for nine worlds since.

The pair of girls are colleagues and girlfriends in the same unit, a taller Yun Qiao, thin as a bamboo pole called Siyuan Jia, it is said that they are very athletic, but their personalities are very different, the former chattering, the latter is not a word, even if people ask her name, she has to subconsciously glance at Yun Qiao before speaking.

The one who yells to be a leader calls himself Qian Meng, a freelancer whose usual occupation is to stay home and play games.

Since the moment he entered, he has been talking about his past glorious achievements, claiming that without him, the team of four would not have been able to pass the second mission.

He tries to prove his ability and also tries to dispel the fear of going into his tenth mission by bragging about it.

In contrast, Xiaochi Chi was more attracted to the other guy with black-framed glasses.

His name is Jiayi Xu, a college student, at first glance looks ordinary, but very calm, is the most stable mentality of the four people.

In this assignment, Xiaochi Chi is still called "Lou Xiaochi".

He didn't even introduce himself much, just sat quietly and stared at the wall clock.

There are thirty seconds left before the mission starts.

Twenty seconds.

Ten seconds.

Five seconds.

One second.

......

Before Lou Xi could remind him that the mission had officially begun, a familiar cold fog suddenly rose from the room, instantly enveloping several people.

The crowd's nerves were extremely tense, so when a bottle shattering sounded, everyone was inevitably startled.

The next second, the fog and as if encountering the breeze, instantly dispersed.

Before returning to the gods, there was another thumping muffled sound, countless colored confetti butterfly-like fluttering over the heads of the crowd, and in a flash it fell all over their shoulders.

"SURPRISE!!!"

The little brother who just looked down and played the game raised his head and was actually a complete and utter change of person.

A comical clown man was smiling at them, with white teeth. His hair was explosive and dyed an uncomfortable bright red, the black plum of a poker card was drawn on his left eye, his lips were pig's blood-like red, his lipstick outlined a smiling face, and the exaggerated corners of his mouth extended all the way to his ears, making the corners of his mouth ache.

He stepped out of the hospitality seat and pompously bowed to the eight people, "Everyone~ How are you~"

No one of the eight responded.

The clown did not feel neglected, took off his parrot-like colored hat and held it in his hand to fan the wind.

"Welcome to my game~ Here I am, there are only three rooms in total." The clown raised three fingers, "The rules I have here, there are only three as well."

"First, don't destroy the room I've so carefully prepared, with all the clues placed where you can see them. I hate redecorating."

"Second, there are no hint clues ~ everything needs to be figured out by yourselves."

"Third, pay attention to the time, as long as you come out of the third room within one hour, you will be able to collect the gift I give to you in the fourth room~""

He magically pulled out a whole handful of flowery green hydrogen balloons from his hat. Offering a treasure: "These are the ones, like them?"

Qian Meng gathers courage: "...... What if we don't pass."

The clown laughed twice: "Then, you will stay in that room and never get out ~ at that time, I will enjoy your expressions in the monitor oh, hehehehehe."

He "hip" the crowd chills, Qian Meng can not stand, hands propped up on the table to stand up, can not wait to say: "Then let's start."

The clown got up and led the crowd to the end of the corridor, in front of a blood-red door: "Please line up and enter one by one in an orderly manner, when the last person enters and the door closes, the game will officially begin. ...... Oh, yes - before going in, I would like to give you players a small egg for free ~"

He wiggled his finger: "I can see the darkest side of your heart oh."

After a strange introduction, the crowd probably guessed that the ghost would not be directly involved in the game, but only an "observer" role, and also put their minds at ease, and lined up as instructed, ready to enter the room.

Qian Meng volunteered to be this captain, and of course was the first to enter.

As he passed the clown standing on the side of the door, the clown squinted his right eye and looked at Qian Meng with his left eye pierced with a black plum tattoo.

"You are-" he deliberately trailed off, "arrogant. Beware of being killed by your own arrogance oh, hee hee hee."

Qian Meng wrinkled his brow and stepped into the darkness.

In second place is Yun Qiao, whom Joker observes in the same way for a moment: "Hee hee, jealous. Who are you jealous of? Is it this lady behind you?"

Yun Qiao was shocked and immediately walked into the room, cursing and cursing.

Jiayi Xu and Siyuan Jia also enter together, and the Joker's opinion of them is not vicious, but just "boring" and "timid".

When it was Xiaochi Chi's turn, Benshan Yuan took the lead and walked up to the clown, he was heard to say with mockery, "Ha, cold man."

Benshan Yuan couldn't stand his pretentious tone, so he didn't pay much attention to it and walked straight into the room.

Tang Gan walked up.

The clown glanced at her and pinned his eyebrows rather amusedly, "You ......"

Tang Gan wanted to wait for his verdict, but could not wait, and was puzzled, but did not delay much and went straight into the room.

When he saw Yu Gan, the clown laughed out loud: "So it's two fools! Two identical fools! That's a rare sight!"

Yu Gan ignored him and did not go inside, standing at the door and waiting for Xiaochi Chi.

The clown had enough of laughing and turned his face to Xiaochi Chi: "You-"

He froze.

Immediately afterwards, he held onto the wall and let out a series of loud laughter, laughing so hard that tears were coming out of his eyes, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

Xiaochi Chi looked at him for a long time, but returned a smile.

The clown laughed so hard he couldn't straighten up and waved his hands around, telling him to get in faster.

Until the door closed, the clown's piercing laughter still haunted Xiaochi Chi's ears for a long time.
