Chapter 27 Real Scene Interpretation (2) The Secret Room (The Ghost Story is Coming)

In the next few rounds, the system witnessed what it meant to kill indiscriminately.

It's not about using serious logic to speculate on the werewolf's random killing, but about relying solely on random details to kill the opponent.

In the second round, Bai Bei, who was drawn as a witch, decisively used poison to send Wen Tingxu to accompany Lin Yuan and Shi Yu who were eliminated because Wen Tingxu avoided his sight when he was speaking. The civilians won again.

The system had no time to feel sorry for the werewolf's failure, because the next one was Bai Bei, a civilian who had no skills and started to gamble blindly.

Bo Bei, who was killed once again on the first night, began to leave a well-reasoned last message: "My reasonable guess is that it was Chen Que and Su Yang. During the werewolf selection, I suddenly felt a breeze on my left side. It must have been the air current when Chen Que pointed at me. I suspect Su Yang because she also cheated on me, or it was a spicy hot pot. Yangyang, you didn't wipe the corner of your mouth clean."

Shen Que: "...Can there be airflow here?"

Su Yang silently took the napkin: "..."

Xie Jianshan, who was watching the show, said: "I think it's really reasonable. I'm going to vote for it."

So the civilians also won this game.

The barrage and the system were both stunned.

[Great! This is truly brilliant! Big victory for our abstract art movement! !]

I thought the protagonists were playing Werewolf: calm analysis, meticulous logic, and exciting confrontations and psychological games. In reality, the protagonists were playing Werewolf: The robot MVP was the one who blindly sniped and took down all the wolves.

[I'm almost breaking down laughing... He delivered a series of ridiculous remarks with a deadpan expression, yet still managed to lead his teammates to victory. Old thief, are you feeling addicted to your hand? My scenes today are almost catching up to my previous appearances.]

Captain Xie, who originally planned to cheat with his skills to see who would be the last one to be carried, said: "Recruit! I'll recruit you right now!"

"That's great, bro, you absolutely have to catch this incredible shot! Get ready to soar, gogogo!"

Bai Bei: No, I just want to be a passerby quietly.

After playing a few more games and finishing most of the food, Shi Yu suggested going to play in an escape room. There happened to be one in the building next to them, but he didn't know what books were available today.

Except for Chen Que who had something to do and had to leave soon, everyone else had time and simply agreed.

Bai Bei was a little surprised. After sending Chen Que away, he walked around to Xie Jianshan and asked him if Lin Yuan wanted to discuss something with Shi Yu in the secret room.

"I had been planning to tell him later, but now it seems I'll have to tell him in the secret room." Lin Yuan couldn't remove the detector because there were so many people in public, so she explained the situation verbally. "A strange story will happen in twenty minutes, right in that secret room."

Lin Yuan and Xie Jianshan plan to enter the secret room first, so that they can cooperate with the members outside to contain the players. The teammates will explain the situation to the staff and let the players in the secret room come out before the ghost story occurs.

Bai Bei: "...That's a coincidence, what do you want to say?"

Lin Yuan waved his hand. "Captain Xie wants to get to know him. Shi Yu doesn't know your friend is from the Operations Department yet. If he runs into him while handling a ghost story, we're afraid he'll be scared to death."

Bai Bei: "Okay."

When we got there, we asked the boss and found out that the only room we could play in was a small escape room, which could only accommodate five people at most. We had to either leave a few people outside and wait for the next round, or split up and play two different escape rooms.

In the end, they chose the latter. Shi Yu and two friends went to a micro-horror room with a mental hospital theme, while Bai Bei, Lin Yuan, and Xie Jianshan went to another room with the same level of horror.

They placed their phones in a nearby cabinet and followed the staff member who opened the door into the secret room. A pitch-black passageway led to the elevator cabin. Bai Bei, holding the intercom provided by the secret room, stepped into the darkness with the other two.

The door to the chamber closed, and the outside light completely disappeared. The elevator was shrouded in darkness. The announcement began to introduce the background of the chamber: "Recently, there have been frequent disappearances at the research institute. To investigate these incidents, you have come to this institute."

The elevator started moving, and the numbers representing the floors on the display kept jumping. When it finally stopped, the elevator door did not open, and the entire car began to shake violently.

After a loud bang, Bai Bei seemed to hear the sound of something suddenly falling. A dim light came on, and a telescopic ladder leading to the top of the elevator appeared in front of him. He bent down and picked up the silicone prosthetic hand on the ground. It looked quite realistic.

"The elevator has encountered a malfunction. You need to find the corresponding clues and crack the password to keep the elevator running." The broadcast gave guidance at the right time. Bai Bei turned over his artificial hand and saw a piece of white paper with different numbers and letters displayed on both sides.

"They seem to correspond to each other." Lin Yuan took a closer look, then shifted her gaze towards the ladder. "In that case, there should be something up there. Should I go take a look?"

Bai Bei put his fake hand in the corner, holding only the note. He nodded and said, "Okay, be careful."

The telescopic ladder was a bit unstable, so Bai Bei helped hold it. Lin Yuan stepped on it and quickly and nimbly reached the top. He looked at Xie Jianshan, who was also holding the ladder on the other side with an unnatural expression, and suddenly called out, "Captain Xie."

"Are you afraid of the dark? Or ghosts?"

Xie Jianshan: “…No.”

Bo Bei, with a perfunctory expression and obvious disbelief, said: "Oh."

Bai Bei: "When you were dealing with ghost stories, you seemed not afraid of these things at all. So you are afraid of the dark?"

Xie Jianshan gritted his teeth: "Kwaidan and ghosts are not the same species!"

Bai Bei really didn't expect that Xie Jianshan, who could remain calm in the face of ghost stories, would be afraid of ghosts. This man looked fearless and would rush forward even if he couldn't defeat the high-risk ghost stories. Who would have thought that his expression changed as soon as he entered the secret room.

Lin Yuan descended the ladder, carrying her props. It was a diary. She flipped open it, revealing four blood-red letters wedged between rows of black characters. Bai Bei found the corresponding number on the paper and relayed it to Xie Jianshan, who was standing next to the elevator buttons.

Xie Jianshan pressed the button, and confirming the correctness of the answer, the elevator began to rise again.

"The elevator has arrived at the floor you want to investigate, and you have finally officially stepped into the interior of the research institute." As the broadcast voice fell, the elevator door finally slowly opened.

There was no light, only darkness in sight.

"Let's go." Lin Yuan was the first to step out of the elevator. After confirming that there were no NPCs pretending to be ghosts in the corridor, he nodded to the other two. Bai Bei originally wanted Xie Jianshan to go in front, but the other party insisted on pretending to be calm. "You walk in the middle. We have to protect you."

Bo Bei, who was “powerless” but was specially protected, said: “I’m so touched.”

With Lin Yuan in front who was not afraid at all, Bai Bei walked behind quite easily. Xie Jianshan said that he would protect him, but the hand pulling his sleeve almost pulled his shoulder out.

Bai Bei pulled up his clothes expressionlessly. He couldn't understand why Xie Jianshan was not afraid of those scary horror stories, but was afraid of these ghosts that seemed more like psychological effects.

"You have arrived at the first investigation room and found a recording in the computer. Please play this recording."

Lin Yuan looked at the only computer in the room, followed the instructions on the broadcast, opened the file on the desktop, and played the audio content. A male voice in a chaotic tone talked about how crazy the institute's experiments that violated biology were.

At the end of the audio, he mentioned the data room where information about this genetic experiment was stored.

Immediately after the audio ended, the announcement resumed: "The room you are in is the research institute's data room. Please find the information you need and then take the elevator to the next floor."

There was no light in the room. The only source of illumination was the computer screen. Lin Yuan had already begun checking the room for any clues. Xie Jianshan also walked over. Seeing this, Bai Bei prepared to help search the other side.

This secret room is only slightly scary, so there won't be a chase scene right from the start. Also, the puzzles don't seem that difficult at the moment.

Originally in the darkness, Bai Bei couldn't see the comments clearly, but now due to the light from the computer screen, the words in front of him became clear, and every word was filled with joy.

[Ah ...

[Xiao Yu is being timid, which is quite reasonable. Brother Wen, why are you afraid of ghosts too? Hahahaha, this guy is so scared that he has a cold face.]

[Yang Mei: Is there anyone else useful in this family besides me?]

[As expected of our Yangmei, she's incredibly powerful. With a cute and pretty face, she's equipped with the strongest offensive skills among the main characters. Any strange story or ghost that comes her way will be dealt a slap. Our Yangmei is determined to smack the whole world! !]

[Brother Guidan, please don’t come yet. I want to see Xiaoyu or Brother Wen play the single-player lane with a designated person. Hehehe.]

There is a brave guy named Su Yang next door. Bai Bei also wants to delay the occurrence of this strange story, but unfortunately he can't make the decision.

Lin Yuan stopped searching. She walked out of the data room and stood in the corridor. Then she faced the room and made sure that the surveillance camera could not capture what was in her hand before she took out the detector. The eye-catching text had already issued a warning.

【Warning! An unknown ghost story is about to happen! 】

[A B-level ghost story has been detected - live performance, warning! The ghost story is approaching the current location!]

"A strange story is about to happen." Lin Yuanxiang turned to Bo Bei, her expression somewhat serious, "Follow us closely."

Bai Bei, an ordinary person under special protection, quickly agreed. Then, he slowly remembered something and asked a few questions, not quite understanding, "So why don't you let me stay outside? I'd be a burden to you if I came in."

"No." Xie Jianshan, knowing that the ghost stories were about to take over, became more energetic. He explained the reason, "This is not to let you adapt in advance. We can handle B-level ghost stories. If a large-scale high-risk ghost story covers the entire city of A, at least you can deal with it calmly."

Bai Bei sensed something was wrong and brought out the key point in Xie Jianshan's words, "Is a large-scale, high-risk ghost story about to happen? Have you predicted it?"

Xie Jianshan shook his head and said with a hint of regret, "Unfortunately, no, it's just that ghost stories are appearing more and more frequently nowadays. Even S-level ghost stories that haven't appeared yet will appear sooner or later."

Therefore, Xie Jianshan hopes that Bai Bei can join the Operations Department even more. His sixth sense has always been accurate, not to mention such a strong intuition. Compared with Shi Yu, he hopes that Bai Bei can change his mind.

His intuition told him that Bai Bei would bring more surprises, even surprises that he could not predict, and he must seize them and not miss them.

He will trigger unassessable possibilities in the future.
