Through the Mirror (End)
Gao Yang hung up the phone and said, "Xia Yi returned to the Xia family from the mirror. After the mirror family members returned to normal, it was the Xia family themselves who turned into mirror spirits, the kind that died after having their necks chopped off..."
"Harming others will eventually harm yourself!" Old Bear sighed as he recalled the dozens of pieces of advice he had found.
"That's not true. Xia Yi will finish taking the statement and ride his bike back here before the Jing family returns," Gao Yang said, looking at the paper filled with clues. "Xia Yi also found the key, and most of the clues came from him. Old Bear, we better analyze the answer quickly. We can't let the three of us old people be unable to catch up with a newbie who's just passed the test for the second time! That would be too embarrassing, and the people in the live broadcast room would just laugh at us. We're not those perverts at the top, so no one will say anything if we can't catch up."
"Maybe." Luo Dian joked.
"Don't laugh at me! If those perverts were so easy to find, they wouldn't be called perverts," Gao Yang said with a beaming expression. "I really don't know what's going on in those perverts' minds. How can they be so lucky? They can finish a small dungeon like ours in just three days!"
"Isn't this also the third day..."
"It's different, it's different!" Gao Yang shook his head!
The sirens of police cars and ambulances echoed throughout the manor. Police and nurses methodically sorted out the tragic Xia family massacre, burying the deceased maids and documenting a ferocious new species. As they spoke, someone from a cutting-edge laboratory arrived by plane. Taking advantage of the police's inattention, Xia Yi quietly pushed his bicycle from the garage and slipped out the door. The streetlights on the path to the Jing family manor were bright enough to diffuse the fragrance of osmanthus flowers throughout the entire estate, filling the road to the western hill with the aroma. Xia Yi rode his bicycle, carrying Xiang Jiu on his back, and hurried back.
"Sister Xia Yi, hurry up, go!" Xiang Jiu squatted in the back seat and kept saying in Xia Yi's mind, "Meow meow meow!"
"I know, stop it!" Xia Yi kept interrupting. Facing a cat, Xia Yi didn't feel any fear at all. He just spoke naturally, "I'm just riding my bike. How can a cat like you be so talkative?"
"I'm not a chatterbox," Xiang Jiu huffed, but then turned around and asked, "Sister, when are you going into the dungeon next time? I'll go with you. You and I conquered the dungeon together this time, and you should have realized I'm great at collecting clues. Others helping you gather clues will definitely talk a lot and hide their clues, but I won't. I'll share every clue I find with you, sister."
Xia Yi was speechless and tried to persuade him: "Little boy, how old are you in real life? You're still a child, right? If there are no props, even if I want to challenge the level with you, we won't get a copy. The chance is too small, not as good as winning 10 billion."
Xiang Jiu shook his head, his azure eyes becoming deeper, and his voice lowered. His childlike sweet voice became deeper, revealing a hint of tenderness, with a hint of smile at the end of the sentence: "But you are very smart. You are the first person I want to choose in this bloody and weird world."
What kind of shameful statement is this!!
Xia Yi didn't notice Xiang Jiu's voice. He paused and changed the subject: "I guess you are not eighteen years old? Do you have a terminal illness?"
Xiang Jiu regained his lively demeanor and asked curiously, "Terminal illness?"
"If you don't have a terminal illness, how many children do you have in your family? Is it because your parents don't like you that much and can't afford to raise so many children?" Xia Yi listed the common reasons why parents would send their children to junior high school.
Xiang Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, I don't have any money."
Xia Yi nodded, and with the mentality of someone who had experienced it, he comforted: "If you don't have money, work hard to earn it. But remember, when you give your pension after you become an adult, give the amount required by law. If you give more, you won't know who to support. My mother did that in the past. She managed her small family well. You will manage it well in the future too. Study hard and grow up well!"
Xiangjiu didn't say anything else, just meowed softly.
Since Xiang Jiu didn't say anything, Xia Yi naturally stopped talking too. What she had just said was equivalent to what she had said for several days.
Xia Yi entered Jing's house and walked to the location Gao Yang sent her. The door was opposite to the location of the key. It was in Jing Fang's room, the dressing mirror on her dressing table. A huge silver door with gold edges was projected from the mirror, and in front of the door was a question made of flashing golden light: Please answer the cause of the lady's death.
"Xia Yi, you're here. How long will it take for the Jing family to return?" Gao Yang bit his pen and said in distress, "If we hadn't stayed here for five days to decipher the code, we would have quickly uncovered another monster or ghost of unknown origin. It would be nice for us to have a vacation here."
"What kind of monster?" Xia Yi was surprised. "And how do you answer this question?"
"You didn't think that just because we'd cleared up that group of mirrors, the weirdness in this dungeon would be over, did you?" Gao Yang was already tired of sorting through the information. He put down his pen and shook his head. "No, no, no, that's far from enough. As long as you're in the dungeon for a day, new weirdness will appear. Even if these weirdnesses have nothing to do with your dungeon problems, they'll still appear to increase the difficulty. When I went into the dungeon with that pervert from the company before, I was almost dragged to death by a ghost that suddenly appeared. There must be a record in the various records compiled by your company. You came in too hastily. Ask your assistant for it when you leave."
"As for this, the first round is considered a practice field. Newbies won't be given any special treatment. You don't need to write it down. As long as you know the answer, you can directly touch the lock inside." Gao Yang raised his hand and knocked on the shimmering golden light. The golden light made a crisp sound and protected the door like a layer of glass. "It seems we are missing an important condition."
Xia Yi raised his hand and reached for the door with the key.
"It's useless... Damn it!" Gao Yang looked at Xia Yi in shock as he reached out to touch the door lock.
"I forgot to tell you before that if the mirror elf doesn't eat its prey, it will commit suicide in the room. Jingfang is the mirror elf that hasn't eaten its prey." Xia Yi said as she opened the door. As soon as she opened the door, Xiang Jiu on her shoulder jumped into the door and left the copy.
After Xia Yi finished speaking, he waved his hand and left the copy.
"I now feel that she really has some potential to be a pervert." Gao Yang sighed with Luo Dian and Lao Xiong before leaving the dungeon.
——Three days and three hours, the five-day copy was completed in only three days and three hours. I saw the childhood of a big boss!
Xia Yi must have gotten this information sometime before, while he was in front of the mirror. But the answer to this dungeon is so detailed! If it were just a rough estimate, Gao Yang and the others should have been able to guess it… Anyway, Xia Yi is the second one this time, awesome! Honestly, I envy Xiang Jiu so much; he's the winner of both dungeons!
——If nothing else, I just want to know what the reward is!!
