Chapter 18 Unforgettable Alice



The lights in the corridor jumped and flickered.

Mrs. Qin frowned and said apologetically, "The circuit system of the villa was just overhauled a few days ago, and it's not very stable. I'll go downstairs to take a look."

"You're busy, I can do it myself." Jian Jing waved her hand.

Mrs. Qin left in a hurry.

Jian Jing thought, since I'm out, I might as well go to the toilet first.

The toilet in the villa is like a five-star hotel, with three compartments, a sealed solid wood door, and a marble washbasin, on which hand soap, fragrance and hand cream are placed.

The air is faintly filled with the smell of big-name perfume.

All three rooms are empty, and Jian Jing randomly picked one to go in. There was a smart toilet inside.

Boom, another thunder.

The warm-toned ceiling light flickered, dimming for several seconds before lighting up.

The smart toilet began to play light music, mee-re-mee-ree..., to cover up the indecent sound.

Jian Jing: There are quite a lot of tricks.

Hiss, hiss.

The light bulb made an unpleasant noise, and then, accompanied by a loud thunder, all the lights in the bathroom went out and fell into darkness.

Jian Jing thought it would light up again soon, but after waiting for half a minute, there was no change.

Did it trip?

She hurriedly completed the last step and tried to push the door out.

It didn't move.

Push again.

The solid wood door panel was firmly fixed in place, without any movement.

When her finger touched the touch screen behind the door panel, a line of text popped up: [Security system has been restarted, please enter the emergency password]

The lock of the toilet is a smart sensor lock. When no one is inside, it can be opened at will from the outside. The door will automatically lock when you enter, and it will automatically unlock when you detect relevant movements when you leave.

But now, no matter how she pokes, the picture on the display screen does not change.

When it rains, it pours, and the system finally comes out after much anticipation.

[System: New mission has been released]

[Mission name: Escape from Yuhui Villa]

[Mission description: Thunderstorm weather caused a circuit failure, and the security system of Yuhui Villa has been activated. You must escape from here before the villa releases deadly gas. The countdown is 10 hours]

[Mission reward: Success reward 30 courage points, failure will make you die]

Release deadly gas?

Is this a mistake? How can there be such a thing in the security system of a private exhibition hall?

Jian Jing couldn't believe it. For a moment, she didn't know whether there was something wrong with the system or her cognitive common sense was not enough. She sat on the toilet in confusion, questioning her life.

To be honest, she thought that this kind of escape mission would only happen after her rebirth. Who would have thought that she would encounter it again.

This is much more serious than the task of finding the murderer.

To escape from the villa, you must first escape from the toilet. To escape from the toilet, you must first leave the cubicle.

The problem is the password. She knows a damn password!

Jian Jing has never encountered such a situation before. In a panic, she had to randomly enter 123456 to try.

[Wrong password]

[There are 9 more chances. If you enter all wrong, you will be completely locked]

Help, there is a limit on the number of times?

Jian Jing held her forehead: "System, I want to draw a card, a normal card."

She got 15 courage points and 10 contribution points last time, and she can draw 3 1 times. Save money for a thousand days and spend it in one day. It's time to change your fate by krypton gold.

[Drawing normal cards]

She drew a [Enhancement Card·Explosion (1 point)] and a [Enhancement Card·Agility (1 point)], and used them immediately.

So her personal data became like this:

Constitution: 5 (the result of staying up late all year round)

Strength: 4 (You can't carry a bucket of water)

Agility: 7 (You are slightly more agile than ordinary people)

Explosion: 4 (You only know the hardship when you are running for your life)

Endurance: 5 (Your endurance is obviously not very good)

This result undoubtedly made Jian Jing very worried, but fortunately the next card was a good help.

[Name: Knowledge Card·Cryptology (Elementary)]

[Description: Use this card to have entry-level password knowledge]

[Note: There are always some people who don't talk well, password, oh, damn password]

She used this card immediately.

Miraculously, after using the password card, she had a little idea of ​​how to unlock the password.

Trying randomly will definitely not work.

Is the security system built by Mrs. Qin related to her?

Jian Jing unlocked her phone and wanted to search for her personal information. Unexpectedly, the small grid at the top of the screen disappeared, and there was only a large X in the area representing the signal.

No signal.

She cursed secretly and thought hard.

Could it be the opening date of the pavilion?

She quickly entered today's time 20200506.

[Wrong password]

Jian Jing sighed and turned to use her mobile phone to illuminate the surroundings to see if there were any emergency numbers for help.

There were few things in the cubicle, a hook on each side, a trash can in the corner, and a small cabinet on the partition of the back wall, which contained a few sanitary napkins and tampons.

She searched carefully but did not find any valuable clues.

The only thing left was the toilet.

The toilet had no power and could no longer be used, and there were no written instructions.

Am I really going to be trapped here to death?

No, think about it again.

I don't know if it was a flash of inspiration brought by the password card or the instinctive consciousness of the observation card, but at a certain moment, a melody passed through my mind.

"Dangdangdangdangdangdang..." She hummed unconsciously, and suddenly remembered, isn't this the classic song "Für Elise"?

When she was in high school, the school used it as the school bell.

Could it be the music score?

Jian Jing pondered: "Do Lai Do Lai... No, La Lai La Lai?"

She fell into a cycle of "Ma Dongmei", "Ma Shi Mei Mei?" "Ma Dongmei", "Ma Dong Shi?"

Three minutes later, 1212 passes.

Two minutes later, 6262 passes.

There are 6 times left.

6565 errors.

8686 errors.

Ten minutes later, 323237216.

The answer is: Mi Lai Mi Lai Mi Xi Lai Dora.

[Password correct]

The toilet door opened.

Jian Jing walked out with heavy steps, feeling that she would never forget Alice again.

When she got to the door, she pulled hard on the door of the women's toilet.

Great, it was also locked, the same nine-grid combination lock.

It's just a toilet, is that a big deal?

Is this to trap the thief or the strange thief Kidd? ?

Jian Jing was only prepared to solve the case, but she never expected to encounter this. Her emotions collapsed a little.

"System, is this world really so dangerous?" she asked, "If I can't escape, I will die?"

[System: Please trust the judgment of the system and try to escape]

She was helpless. At this point, she could only continue to look for clues.

The entire women's restroom was much larger. She pushed open the doors of each cubicle and checked. She also searched the cabinets in the washbasin. Finally, she set her sights on a decorative painting hanging on the wall.

In the painting, a girl sat with her arms crossed and a wreath of leaves on her head.

This was a replica of the famous painting "The Pearl Girl".

Although there were no numbers in the painting, passwords sometimes do not have to be numbers directly.

Having mastered the simplicity of entry-level knowledge, she quickly thought of the keyboard password.

The nine-grid digital password pad was very similar to the nine-grid input method.

The first letter of the Pearl Girl? She tried to press 9 (Z) 9 (Z) 6 (N) 5 (L).

An error message was displayed.

Is it the full name of the Pearl Girl, "zhenzhunvlang"? It's a bit long, but let's give it a try.

Wrong.

Sure enough, it's wrong. Then, could it be a more old-fashioned keyboard setting?

Z is the fourth number on the 9th key, 9999?

If so, it would be 9999 (Z) 9999 (Z) 66 (N) 555 (L).

Still wrong.

Could it be that my thinking is wrong and it has nothing to do with the portrait? Jian Jing couldn't help but doubt her own thinking, but when she looked left and right, they were all bathroom necessities, and only the oil painting was the most suspicious.

Maybe the nine-square grid cannot be used as an input keyboard, but the number is derived from the keyboard format.

Z is not 9999, but 94?

She changed her thinking and deduced a new password: 94946253.

Enter.

Click, it opened.

"Ah!" Jian Jing's heart burst out with intense joy. She didn't expect it to actually work. But she was also a little scared. If she hadn't tried it to the end and gave up at the last minute, she would really vomit blood.

She complained in her heart and walked quickly to the corridor outside.

She groped her way to the staircase in the dark, but saw that the place where the stairs used to be had become a wall, and there was no passage at both ends of the corridor. She didn't bother to look closely and went straight to the small cinema.

As expected, the door here was also locked.

"Boss Kang, Writer Xu." She knocked on the door. "Are you in there?"

"Yes." The soundproofing was so good that the voice inside was a little vague. "Is that Jingjing?"

Jian Jing breathed a sigh of relief. "Boss Kang, are you okay?"

"Nothing." Kang Mucheng said in a steady tone. "Are you okay? What happened?"

Jian Jing said, "The power went out. Maybe the security system turned on automatically and locked us all in here. You must get out quickly. Let's leave here."

"Ah, can't we just cancel it if it's activated?" Writer Xu's voice interrupted the conversation, wondering, "We'll be in trouble if we run into something while wandering around."

Jian Jing was not so optimistic.

The countdown was 10 hours, and it was clear that Mrs. Qin had not canceled the alert. It was hard to say whether she couldn't or had some other purpose. But no matter what, you can't put your life on this.

She said, "There was a thunderstorm before, and there was a problem with the circuit. Mrs. Qin said she would go check it out, but she hasn't come back yet. She might be trapped."

Writer Xu was shocked: "What?"

"Come out first, we'll find her." After solving two puzzles, Jian Jing had already entered the state, "There is only a keyhole outside the door, but no key. What's the situation inside?"

Kang Mucheng said, "

They also use keys." Jian Jing thought, "Look inside, maybe there is a spare key."

"No way." Writer Xu was skeptical, "If you put a spare key inside, wouldn't the person run away?"

Jian Jing also found it incredible, but she spoke from her own experience: "I was locked in the toilet just now, and there was a clue."

"Toilet?" On the other side of the door, Kang Mucheng frowned deeply, realizing the weirdness of the situation, "Writer Xu, let's look for it."

Writer Xu didn't object since he had nothing to do.

The two used their cell phones to illuminate and searched separately.

There weren't many things in the theater. In addition to the eight seats arranged in rows of four, there was only a curtain hanging in the front. On the highest staircase at the back was a projector, and next to it was a row of shelves filled with movie reels.

The two searched everywhere for a long time, but found no trace of the key.

"No." Writer Xu scratched his hair and shouted, "Go find Mr. Qin or Mrs. Qin and ask them to come and open the door."

"The mechanism has moved, and I can't find the way." Jian Jing said succinctly, "Look carefully, is there any secret compartment or secret door?"

Mechanism secret compartment? Kang Mucheng's expression became more and more strange. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "Writer Xu, do you think there is something behind this shelf?"

Writer Xu walked over, put his shoulder against the shelf, and tried to push it, but it didn't move: "No, it's too heavy."

"I mean, is there a mechanism?" Kang Mucheng recalled, "Mrs. Qin specifically reminded us not to mess up the order."

Writer Xu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized: "That makes sense, let me see."

There were quite a few films in the box on the shelf, all of which were properly placed in the box. The side of the box was labeled with the name of the movie, which was clear at a glance.

"Hey, look, the movies here are arranged according to time. Avant-garde in 1980, The Nine-Colored Deer in 1981, Sanmao's Wanderings in 1984..." Writer Xu, as expected of someone in the film industry, quickly noticed something unusual, "But Not One Less from 1999 is placed here, the time is wrong."

Kang Mucheng immediately said, "Let's find the ones with the wrong time."

One of them has worked in the film industry for more than ten years, and the other recently set up a film and television department. They both had more or less knowledge of classic films, and quickly picked out a few films that were in the wrong order.

In order, the list is as follows:

"Not One Less", "Seven Deadly Sins", "Justice, My Foot", "Empty Room", "One Life, One World", "Seven Swords", "Nine Degrees of Space", "3 Idiots", "A Separation", "Empty Room", "One Step Away", "Eight Wicked Men", "Three Billboards", "Empty Room", "Three Watches", "A Good Show", "Seven Samurai", "Nine", "Four Weddings and a Funeral", "Six Fingered Lute Demon", "Empty Room", "A Separation", "Seven Chances", "Nine Time Travels", and "Fork in the Road".
