Time passed second by second, and the wall was getting closer and closer to them.
"Damn it, we're all going to die here if this continues!" Numabuchi Ichiro cried out in despair.
"Numabuchi, shut up!" Hattori Heiji yelled, exasperated. "Let me think about this."
"This math problem is beyond human ability. I'll try some other locks!"
Hattori Heiji scratched his head in frustration and finally gave up trying.
Although he did well in math when he was young, he struggled when math problems involved letters.
Those problems that required calculating a number using a bunch of letters made him realize that this was not a field he could master.
"Try the lock on this trash can." Conan walked over to a trash can and touched the lock with his finger. "Since they say the closer to the exit, the harder the puzzles, then this one should be a bit easier!"
They must find an exit from the attic as soon as possible, or they will be crushed into meat patties.
A transparent panel appeared above the trash can.
[This is a logic puzzle. Please listen carefully: A criminal has been sentenced to death, but he can choose one of three rooms as his method of death. The first room is a cliff with nowhere to land; the second room is a time bomb about to explode; and the third room contains five hungry tigers that haven't eaten for many years. Which room is the safest?]
After reading the title, Hattori Heiji and Conan immediately showed surprise and delight.
This is an easy question!
"I choose number three," Conan shouted without hesitation, raising his hand. "That tiger must have starved to death long ago after not eating for so many years!"
After they finished speaking, the group stared nervously at the room, which had shrunk to half its original size, eagerly awaiting the answer the haunted house would provide.
"Ding-dong, ding-dong."
With two crisp clicks, the lock on the trash can finally opened slowly.
[Congratulations to player Edogawa Conan for answering correctly! The exit to the second room is now open.]
Hearing the mechanical voice, Hattori Heiji smiled smugly: "Haha, this is really easy. We'll definitely be able to get out of here soon."
Conan rolled his eyes. He knew how perverse Yuzuru was; how could he possibly let them leave so easily?
"Don't worry," Hattori Heiji patted his chest confidently, then quickly leaned over the trash can to examine it closely.
At this moment, the two were surprised to find that a dark passage had appeared in the trash can that should have been full of garbage, leading to some unknown room.
Conan frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Is this the space folding technology in science?"
Hattori Heiji nodded in agreement: "It does look very similar. I didn't expect that Hanyu Nanagi would have mastered such advanced technology. It seems that the power behind him is definitely not simple!"
Hattori Heiji didn't believe that Hanyu Kusunoki could have researched these things by himself.
...
"Yay! Heiji and the others did it!"
Kazuha watched as Hattori Heiji and Conan helped Numabuchi Ichiro unlock his handcuffs and they walked together from the trash can to the next room, and she cheered excitedly.
"It looks like a lot of fun, Nan. Let's try it when we get back!" Xiao Lan said, turning her head in interest.
“Okay,” Yu Shengnan smiled and didn’t say anything more.
This is just an appetizer; the real question is why the horror house was taken back.
Watching others play is very interesting, but playing it yourself is torture.
Next, Heiji Hattori and Conan, along with Ichiro Numabuchi, passed several more challenges.
During this time, the group also encountered problems they couldn't solve.
After Conan clicked on the lock on the door in the painting hanging on the wall, the pop-up question was:
"What was the name of the first movie starring the famous actress Yukiko Fujimine?"
Conan was speechless. What kind of question is this?
This question completely stumped Conan. Although he knew that his mother was a very famous actress before she gave birth to him, and he had seen those movies, the problem was that he couldn't remember the names of the movies at all.
"Conan, this should be the one you're most familiar with, right?"
"How would I know! Who would bother memorizing these old movies?" Conan was speechless, his face full of black lines.
"What should we do then!" Hattori Heiji held up Conan in despair, looking at the chainsaw slowly moving in the room. Several cuts had been made on his body, and blood was constantly flowing from the wounds.
Just then, Ichiro Numabuchi, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up: "Um... I remember now, that movie was called 'Otome is Too Cute,' I even watched it back then."
When Ichiro Numabuchi was young, Yukiko Kudo was at the height of her popularity, so he had the opportunity to see one of her movies.
...
"Very good, that's it!"
Yuzuru looked at the scene before him and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
This is why the horror house was recycled; it presents player-related questions based on the scenario, revealing the issues players least want to face.
For example, if you and another person are playing a game together, he might ask one of you to answer a question about what you dislike about the other person.
You can't answer, and you can't not answer.
If you don't answer, you won't pass the test; if you do answer, your two best friends will break up.
