"Where?" Ge asked as he prepared to lie down and take a closer look.
But before he could even bend his knees, Feng Wenhe had already knelt down on the ground and put her arms inside.
Within seconds, Feng Wenhe took out a somewhat unappetizing iron box from it.
The tin box is pink and has pictures of rabbits playing happily on it.
Feng Wenhe opened the tin box, inside which was a rabbit whose body had been cut into pieces. The rabbit's arms, legs, head, and body were cut into pieces and haphazardly stuffed into the box.
Chi Nao and Ge Ling were both so frightened that they gasped and hid behind Qin Yuanyao and Zhuo Ranjun respectively.
Wow! Seeing a rabbit like that in this kind of atmosphere is really testing one's mental fortitude!
[This is a little scary, sob sob sob]
"Why did you do that to the rabbit?" Chi Nao asked, puzzled.
"Maybe it's for the show," Qin Yuanyao said.
Chi Nao asked, puzzled, "Is this also a hint for the password?"
"Maybe," Qin Yuanyao said.
Feng Wenhe was convinced that this was definitely a hint for the password.
"Five letters..." Feng Wenhe murmured, "A tattered rabbit?"
Guo Zhuyan added, "A broken rabbit? A rabbit that split up? A dead rabbit?"
Ge Ling shouted, "It could also be a rabbit!"
"What do you mean?" Guo Zhuyan asked, puzzled.
“The tattered rabbit, the broken rabbit, the separated rabbit, the dead rabbit!” Ge Ling said.
Guo Zhuyan understood now.
Feng Wenhe had already walked to the combination lock with the iron box and tried the first letters of the five characters "broken rabbit".
Incorrect password.
Then Feng Wenhe tried the password again using the first letters of the three words Guo Zhuyan had mentioned, but the password was still incorrect.
Feng Wenhe tried the password again, following Ge Ling's instructions, but it was still wrong.
Everyone was a bit discouraged.
“It still doesn’t make sense,” Zhuo Ranjun sighed. “If the metal box isn’t a clue, then where else could it be? This place is so small and so empty. We’ve already searched the podium, the desks and chairs, but there’s nothing else here.”
Feng Wenhe was inspired by Zhuo Ranjun's words.
"Iron box!" Feng Wenhe exclaimed, a sudden inspiration striking him. "We've been trying to guess the password using words related to 'rabbit,' but we haven't tried using words related to 'iron box'!"
Ye Rui then continued, "A rabbit in a tin box? No, that's six words now. A tin box and a rabbit?"
Feng Wenhe immediately tried the password using the first letters of "iron box and rabbit", but it was incorrect.
So everyone started trying to come up with various words and passwords based on the metal box and the rabbit.
Without Professor Feng, I feel their escape room project would have progressed much slower.
Although Professor Feng is the oldest, his thinking is the most active, haha.
[...Feng Wenhe's fans upstairs really don't need to do this. Wait until Feng Wenhe actually leads everyone to escape before you start putting down other guests and praising your own.]
I think Feng Wenhe overreacted a bit; he acted like he was the leader of the group. Just now, when Ge Ling found the iron box and Ge Zhi went to get it, Feng Wenhe deliberately grabbed it before Ge Zhi, which was particularly obvious.
[Seriously?! Even being proactive gets you scolded? Are those who don't actively escape just going to lazily wait for the lock to open itself?]
Being proactive and deliberately stealing the spotlight are two different things. I'm not blind, and I don't need anyone to lecture me, thank you.
[Stop arguing, look what Qin Yuanyao and the other two are doing.]
Chi Baiyi, Qin Yuanyao, and Chi Naozi are already looking for other clues in the classroom.
After trying so many words to create a password, none of them worked, so the three of them felt there might be other clues.
They conducted a thorough, carpet-like search.
Suddenly, Chi Nao exclaimed, "Sister Qin! Dad! There seem to be words over there!"
Chi Cheese's exclamation not only attracted Qin Yuanyao and Chi Baiyi, but also drew the attention of the other guests who were originally gathered in front of the lock trying to form words and passwords.
Feng Wenhe hurried over, wanting to be the first to see it clearly.
But Chi Baiyi had already squatted down a few steps ahead of him, using the flashlight from his phone to illuminate the spot Chi Naozi had just pointed to.
The place Chi Cheese was pointing to was under the bottom chair of a stack of tables and chairs, and through the chair, you could see the innermost wall.
Where the wall meets the floor, two small words are written in red pen: Save me.
"The words 'Save me' are written on the wall," Chi Baiyi said.
After saying that, he stood up and said to Chi Nao, "How did you find such small and hidden words?"
Chi Nai pointed to her eyes and said cutely, "I see it with my eyes!"
Chi Baiyi "..."
That's not what he meant.
Feng Wenhe lay down on the ground to confirm what Chi Baiyi had said.
"Save me..." Qin Yuanyao said thoughtfully, "The pinyin for 'save me' has exactly five letters."
Chi Baiyi's eyes lit up slightly as she walked to the combination lock and tried it.
After Feng Wenhe confirmed that there were indeed only the words "Save me" on the wall, he heard Qin Yuanyao say that he wanted to get up and try the combination lock, but the lock had already been opened.
The password is the pinyin for "save me"!
"Wow! Sister Qin, you're so smart!" Chi Nao was overjoyed.
"Yuan Yao, you're amazing!" Ye Rui and Guo Zhuyan also gave Qin Yuan Yao a thumbs up.
Qin Yuanyao waved her hand modestly, "I was just lucky, I just happened to run into her."
【Yaoyao is so smart!】
[Previously, some people said Yao Yao was paid to appear on the show but looked exhausted, perfunctory with the production team, and didn't know what she was so arrogant about! Now you see clearly! Even though Yao Yao was very tired, she still figured out the code! Yao Yao wasn't perfunctory or arrogant; she participated in the show very seriously!]
[Qin Yuanyao's fans really know how to pat their idol on the back! If everyone hadn't guessed so many codes beforehand, would Qin Yuanyao have been able to guess them so easily?]
[Yes! Our Yao Yao knows that without everyone's help, she couldn't have guessed it so easily. She herself said it was just good luck, and she didn't brag about it. But since Yao Yao could guess it, it proves that she was seriously participating in the show! We fans are just stating the fact that she was playing the game seriously, and you call that patting her on the back? Whose gold is so worthless?]
Feng Wenhe was the first to walk out of the classroom.
The dimly lit corridor was eerie and seemed to stretch on forever.
The joy of guessing the password and escaping the sealed classroom was quickly dispelled by the gloomy, deserted corridor.
Apart from their footsteps, there was no other sound or person in the entire building.
They would go into each classroom they passed to look for clues, but each time they came up empty-handed.
After a short while, they came to a fork in the road.
