"How can I save you?"
Mu Qingyun looked at the person in front of her whose face she couldn't see with extreme calmness, "First, you have to tell me your name and why you're here, right?"
NPC: ...Speechless, why isn't she scared at all?
"Do you really want to know who I am?" The man in white with black hair spoke in a clear and resonant male announcer's voice. "If you really want to know, then lift my hair and take a look yourself."
As he spoke, the man in white with black hair moved even closer, "Lift my hair, quick, lift my hair!"
"You're sick." Mu Qingyun frowned, abruptly pulling her hand away from the white-clad, black-haired man's grasp.
The NPC who was suddenly insulted: Tonight, my mother tongue is speechless.
"Stop right there!" The dedicated white-clad, black-haired man tried to stop her from moving forward, but before he could finish his line, Mu Qingyun suddenly sped up, turned around, and slipped out of the stairwell.
The white-clad, black-haired man, who had his hands outstretched, shouted a couple more times before slowly lowering his hands.
I'm speechless. I hope this kind of guy never comes to escape rooms again!
"Why isn't Brother Mu here to save us yet?" Xiong Ruoyou's face was blindfolded and her hands were tied to a frame. Apart from her, the other people were also there, each tied to a frame.
"Why did you let her do a single-line quest at the beginning?" Wen Yue shook the chains on her hands and said softly.
"Maybe it's because the live stream mainly focuses on my sister," Mu Xueyao replied softly, then looked at Bai Pufeng, who had been silent beside her. "What's wrong? You seem a little unhappy even though it just started?"
Although she didn't want to talk to this annoying person, she still had to maintain a polite and caring demeanor.
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Your Highness," Bai Pufeng replied with a forced smile, but his tone was no longer as attentive as before.
He's just fooling himself!
Mu Xueyao was stunned for a moment, a flash of annoyance crossing her eyes. What was wrong with this person now? He was so concerned about her just now, why did he suddenly become cold and even perfunctory?
It's really incomprehensible.
Bai Pufeng, on the other hand, was lost in thought.
The black and white Qilin is something that will not be easily forgotten. The rarity of this jade is such that it can be said to be the only one of its kind in a hundred years.
Anyone who has owned it would surely recognize it, especially since he had just told the princess the name of the jade, yet she remained unmoved.
So now, there are only two possibilities.
The first possibility is that His Highness has helped too many people, and she has genuinely forgotten that she once helped him. The second possibility is that she has been mistaken about her savior all along.
But if it's the second possibility, then who is the one who truly saved him?
"Brother Mu, you're here!"
Suddenly, the door was flung open, and Xiong Ruoyou cried out in surprise when she saw Mu Qingyun walking in from outside.
"Hmm." Mu Qingyun responded lightly. There were lights in their room, and with a quick glance, she discovered that all six of them were locked up.
What should I do?
"Find the password. All we have are combination locks. We just need to find the password." Xiong Ruoyou quickly explained to her, pursing her lips pitifully, "Brother Mu, please save me."
Mu Qingyun nodded and turned to look around the small house.
They were all locked in a small area, so they couldn't see the whole room at all.
As she walked, she kept an eye on the walls, and finally her gaze fell on a box that stood out abruptly horizontally.
There should be something inside.
She walked quickly over there, reached into the box, and touched a pile of soft, hair-like things. At the same time, the smell of fresh blood wafted from the box, assaulting her sense of smell.
But she remained expressionless and pulled everything out of the box.
A clump of black hair, a card with "mooN" written on it, and a pair of bloodshot eyes.
Oh, what is it?
Help! This is disgusting.
"What's the big deal? Don't forget, Mu-ge is someone who dares to eat Zerg. This disgusting stuff is nothing but child's play to her."
[I'm never going to an escape room again. Just look at these examples; if I had to do a single-questline mission, I'd be terrified.]
Mu Qingyun threw away her hair and eyeballs, picked up the small card, and looked at it for a while.
Fortunately, Arabic numerals are easy to learn.
She flipped the card over, and the password was right there in front of her.
"You got a 3002, try it yourselves."
After hearing her words, everyone started dialing the combination locks on their hands.
“Mine is open,” Su Qiluo’s voice said.
“I opened it too.” Fan Xuanye shook the lock off his hand and rubbed his wrists, which had been tied up for half a day.
"Mine's open!" Wen Yue exclaimed in surprise, successfully pulling her hand back.
"Sister, mine opened too." Mu Xueyao endured her nausea and obediently called out.
Mu Qingyun turned her head to look at her, and her eyes met. The two looked at each other, and Mu Qingyun smiled and tried to keep her voice down, "It's good that it's open."
Wow, is this a true sisterly bond?
[Ha, I don't believe it. They're probably just putting on a fake friendship. I have inside information that says these two princesses are actually tearing each other apart behind the scenes, like enemies.]
[If you ask me, isn't it great that the two sisters have such a strong bond? One is water, the other is plant—both are abilities that can benefit Capação. Peaceful coexistence is the best outcome, isn't it?]
"Ding-dong—"
Suddenly, the sound of bells jingling rang out in the quiet room, followed by a voice saying, "The four players who have unlocked the chains, please team up to complete this side quest."
The passwords for the remaining two are on the first basement floor. The four of you, hurry up and go find them! Hahahaha!
Mu Qingyun looked up at the four of them, pulled out a slightly damaged stool from the side, tried it and found it was still usable, then pulled it next to Xiong Ruoyou and sat down to rest.
"Let's go." Su Qiluo turned to her and smiled. After receiving her nod, he led the other three people downstairs.
Mu Qingyun looked down at her feet. She felt a void beneath her feet, as if the floor was about to collapse under their weight.
"ah--"
A pig-like scream came from the doorway. Mu Qingyun raised an eyebrow. The voice sounded like Wen Yue's.
"Is it that scary?" Xiong Ruoyou was successfully frightened by the voice. Her whole body froze, and she subconsciously shrank closer to Mu Qingyun.
"Don't be afraid." Mu Qingyun reached out and patted her back, then looked at Bai Pufeng, who was staring blankly at a pendant around her neck.
What is this person doing now?
Bai Pufeng noticed her gaze, suddenly looked up, and his hand unconsciously moved slightly, completely exposing what he was holding.
