Just as I reached the door, I ran into other people coming out of the door.
Ye Qi calmly led Ye Zhixi through the entire search.
Just as they were about to go to the next room, they happened to see Qi Jiu and Qi Ling walking towards the white-clad NPC inside the room.
Ye Zhixi saw the white clothes and whispered to Ye Qi, "Qiqi, there's an NPC in white over there, shall we go over?"
Ye Qi shook her head: "I won't go yet."
Although Ye Zhixi didn't know why Ye Qi didn't go over, she knew that following her sister was all she needed to do.
They leaned against the door, eavesdropping.
The NPC in white said to Qi Jiu, "You must protect yourselves. There are three more men in black on the second floor than on the first floor."
Ye Qi seemed to be deep in thought upon hearing this.
Seeing Ye Qi eavesdropping behind the door, Xiang Zixing didn't make a sound, but instead hid on the other side with his brother to eavesdrop.
Qi Ling, who was inside, asked, "How many men in black are there on the first floor?"
The NPC in white honestly answered, "Two."
Upon hearing this, Qi Jiu frowned and asked, "Two?"
But they clearly only saw one.
Qi Ling continued trying to extract information: "What about the other one?"
The NPC in white suddenly chuckled and, right before their eyes, immediately took off his white clothes, revealing bright black ones!
Upon seeing this, Qi Jiu was instantly terrified and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Qi Ling, run!"
After saying that, Qi Jiu immediately pulled Qi Ling and ran towards the door.
However, the NPC in black was even faster than them, grabbing Qi Ling's hand directly.
Upon seeing this, Qi Ling immediately let go of her brother and pushed him away: "Brother, run! We don't have many chances left!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Jiu didn't hesitate and immediately took off running. Just as he reached the door, he saw the four people eavesdropping. Without thinking, he immediately turned back to look at Qi Ling and the NPC in black inside.
The NPC in black quickly released Qi Ling after capturing her and remained in place.
He could only stay in this room; Qi Jiu had already escaped through the door, and he couldn't take it upon himself to chase after her.
He knew Qi Ling had a chance, and said to Qi Ling with a smile, "Little friend, don't trust others so easily next time."
Qi Ling returned looking embarrassed.
Director Deng's voice rang out at just the right moment: "Qi Ling, one deduction!"
Qi Ling returned to her brother's side, looking dejected, and said, "I'm sorry, brother, I'm the one who held us back."
Qi Jiu patted Qi Ling's shoulder warmly and comforted him, "Between brothers, there's no such thing as holding someone back. It's just a game. Don't be discouraged. We still have another chance. It's better than being eliminated!"
Hearing her brother's words of comfort, Qi Ling nodded vigorously: "Yes!"
Ye Qi glanced again at the black-clad NPC who hadn't chased after them, and understood.
She pulled Ye Zhixi upstairs.
Ye Zhixi asked her, "Aren't you going to continue searching?"
Ye Qi replied, "The others have already searched all the other rooms on the second floor and have gotten almost everything they could. Why don't we go to the third floor and try our luck first?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhixi understood the meaning behind Ye Qi's words.
We just got to the third floor.
The third floor is different from the second floor.
The third floor was a bright and clean place. Even the floor tiles, ceiling, walls, and wooden doors were new, and there was no strange smell at all. It was decorated like an ordinary family home.
Seeing how cozy the third floor was, Ye Zhixi cautioned Ye Qi, "I have a feeling this place is even stranger, so be careful, little sister."
Hearing this, Ye Qi turned around and smiled: "Mm."
They chose one of the rooms, pushed open the door, and were met with a place that made them feel physically and mentally repulsed and unable to stop gagging.
