【Chapter 283, Music Labyrinth 4】
The moment everyone walked into the piano room, the door behind him suddenly closed, and a clear "squeak" echo was emitted in the silent space. Long Sen, who was walking at the end, immediately turned and pushed the door, and when he saw the door, he pushed it. Still, he said helplessly: "We are locked up. It seems that we need to find the code to get out of this room."
Qu Wanyue walked over to observe the door carefully: "Why didn't I see the place where I entered the password?"
Lao Mo also walked to the door and fumbled for it carefully. He didn't find any traces of the switch or door lock. He said to Xiao Lou: "It seems that the code lock is not on the door. Look elsewhere."
Xiao Lou's gaze looked around. The room was empty. The walls and ground were flat, and there were no traces of hidden grids. In addition to the piano, there is no other cabinet to store clues.
In the escape room game, you don't only need to enter a password to open the door, there are also various pressing, stepping, puzzles, and voice control mechanisms. For example, the first room is a voice control mechanism, which can be unlocked with Christmas songs. In this room right now, since there is no code lock on the door, the key to escape from the secret room should be the piano in the middle of the room.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lou said: "The piano in the middle of the room is probably connected to a hidden pressing mechanism. Only by pressing the corresponding key can this secret room be opened."
Ye Qi agreed: "This kind of pressing mechanism is quite common in room escape games. If the keys of the piano are connected to the pressing mechanism, the order of the keys is very important. Could it be another musical melody?"
Xiao Lou said: "Let's look for it."
He took a step forward and carefully observed the beautiful woman who was killed.
The woman was stabbed to death with a single knife. She did not struggle before she died, but the expression on her face was full of horror. It should have been the hands of her unsuspecting acquaintances-the murderer walked into the piano room and came in front of her, suddenly took out the knife, directly Stabbed her to death.
Xiao Lou said: "There is no doubt about the cause of death, it is the knife in the chest. Her identity... Will she be the mistress of the family? Lucia's mother?"
Yu Hanjiang said: "It's possible. Normal guests don't come to a place like the piano room. She is sitting in front of the piano and preparing to play the piano. Maybe it was when Arty was on Christmas Eve when someone asked her to play a song."
Yu Hanjiang observed the surroundings. There was no furniture except the piano. It seemed that the piano was the only clue.
He squatted down to check under the piano, and then unexpectedly discovered that there was a portable tape recorder more than half a meter wide hidden under the piano, and there was also a horn speaker on the recorder.
Yu Hanjiang took out the tape recorder and took a closer look—the old-fashioned tape recorder, which can be started with a battery, contained a tape in it. He used this tape recorder to listen to songs when he was a child.
Yu Hanjiang handed the tape recorder to Ye Qi and asked, "Will it be used?"
Ye Qi nodded: "Yes."
At this point, the tape has reached the end, and the recorder automatically stops playing.
Ye Qi pressed the rewind, quickly rewinded the tape to the beginning, and pressed the play button again.
After a few seconds of blanking, a crisp and melodious piano melody sounded in my ears, a familiar melody with a trace of sadness. Many people have heard this melody, but can't remember its name.
Ye Qi was forced to learn a musical instrument by his parents since he was a child. He could memorize the scores of such famous music. He could hear what it was at the beginning, and said: "This piano piece is called "The Wedding in Dream". Two well-known composers tailored a piece for the piano master Richard Clayderman. There is a touching story behind this piece."
Xiao Lou said with interest: "The story? Let's listen to it."
Ye Qi told the story seriously—
"One winter, on a snowy day, a teenager came to the Magic Academy in the Kingdom of Dreams. He fell in love with the most beautiful girl in the school at first sight. This girl is the princess of the Kingdom of Dreams."
"As a young man, he knew that he could not be with the noble princess. He could only bury his love in his heart. Later, he finally couldn't suppress the feelings in his heart and confessed to the princess. After being rejected, he left his dream sadly. However, after six years, he still could not forget the relationship, so he returned to the country of dreams to find the princess, but happened to meet the princess’s wedding."
"The princess married the prince of a neighboring country. The people of the whole dream country were celebrating the princess. The men were in the crowd and saw the princess wearing a gown and the neighboring prince walking towards the church. Suddenly, he rushed out and the guards beside the princess Thinking that he was here to murder the princess, he immediately drew his sword at him, but what everyone did not expect was that instead of hurting the princess, he opened his arms and threw in front of the princess and said:'I will protect you.' Then, people saw A sharp arrow shot through his chest from a distance..."
When Ye Qi said this, he couldn't help sighing lightly, and said: "The man actually saw someone in the crowd pulling a longbow and wanted to assassinate the princess, so he rushed to protect the princess. Before he died, he dreamed that the princess was wearing The wedding dress walked into the church with him and smiled and said that he would marry him. This song tells a tragic story. The wedding in a man's dream will never come true."
Hearing what Ye Qi said, the teammates had different colors.
The sad piano music "The Wedding in a Dream" was still echoing in the room, Qu Wanyue couldn't help but whispered softly: "This man is very infatuated. For the princess, he can't live. It's a pity that they couldn't be together in the end because of their differences in identity. "
Shao Qingge joked: "Xiao Ye, you are quite good at telling stories."
Ye Qi looked at Xiao Lou and said seriously: "I think the story behind this piano piece may have something to do with the murder, so I told it to everyone."
Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other.
Could the wedding in the unfulfilled dream be related to the murder
The piano music on the tape was already played, and the room became quiet again.
Yu Hanjiang whispered: "From Lucia's diary, it can be inferred that many people participated in arty on Christmas Eve. The hostess went to the piano room to play the piano and was killed. The murderer used the piano music to cover up the truth about the killing of the hostess. , This shows that the murderer must know what tune the hostess would play, otherwise he would be stunned."
The simple truth is that if the hostess says, "I'll play "To Alice" for everyone," the result is "The Wedding in a Dream" being played on the tape recorder, which will naturally arouse others' suspicion. Since the piano music on the recorder is the same as the one the hostess wants to play, it proves that the murderer was prepared.
Xiao Lou speculated: "Maybe, playing the song "The Wedding in a Dream" was suggested by the murderer."
There are a lot of piano music, Christmas is such a joyous holiday, why do you want to play the sad tune of "Returning Gifts in Dreams"? Unless someone deliberately suggests, find a reason like "I like listening to this piano music best" and let the hostess play it.
Xiao Lou looked at Ye Qi: "Xiaoye, can you play this piano piece?"
Ye Qi nodded: "Yes."
No mechanism or code lock was found in the house, and the door could not be opened, so I could only try to unlock it with a piano.
Understanding Xiao Lou's meaning, Yu Hanjiang took a step forward, and Se calmly moved the corpse away to make room for Ye Qi.
Ye Qi bit his scalp and sat where the corpse had just sat, stretched out his slender hands, and began to play the piano music "The Wedding in Dream" based on his memory. As a result, he had just played the first part of the previously locked door. It suddenly opened!
Ye Qi said with excitement, "Sure enough, it was unlocked with a piano!"
The keys of the piano are connected to the hidden code lock in the room. After pressing the correct keys, the door will open. Xiao Lou's guess is indeed correct.
There were no other clues in this room, everyone looked at each other and immediately walked out the door.
The cat outside the door was nowhere to be seen, and there was no light in the dark corridor. Yu Hanjiang picked up Ye Mingzhu, took everyone for a few steps, and saw another door.
Everyone walked inside the door.
As before, the door is closed behind you, and you need to find out the secret room password to unlock the clues.
Everyone consciously looked around.
This is a study room, decorated in a cool black and gray tone.
In the middle of the room is a desk with a photo frame on the table. The photo shows a group photo of a family of three. Xiao Lou picked it up and took a look. The lower right corner of the photo reads "Wills, Shirley and her daughter Lucia take a group photo for their 10th birthday. ".
The man is dressed in a hidden blue suit, handsome; the woman is beautiful and sexy in a white dress, and the little girl is lively and cute in a pink cake dress. The picture of a family of three together is particularly warm.
Xiao Lou looked at the woman in the photo and said, "The one who died just now is really the hostess of this house, called Xueli."
There was also a globe next to the photo frame. Xiao Lou picked it up and looked at it. No abnormality was found, so he temporarily put it back.
Ye Qi knelt down and searched the drawer under the bookcase and found a stack of printed invitations. He took the invitations to Yu Hanjiang and said, "It should be Arty's invitation on Christmas Eve. It's very delicate."
Yu Hanjiang scanned the name on the invitation letter.
A total of five people were invited to participate in Christmas Eve arty, including Dr. Simon, Mr. Jack, Ms. Karen, Ms. Martha, and Ms. Susan.
Xiao Lou leaned over and looked at the stack of invitations. While noting down the names of the five people, he analyzed: "Two men and three women, apart from Simon being a doctor, the other four cannot be identified. They can participate in private gatherings. The relationship between these four and the host and hostess must be very close."
Qu Wanyue found a lot of books in the bookcase and took it out and said: "Does the hostess Shirley work as a pianist? Or a teacher in a conservatory of music? There are many professional books on piano in the bookcase."
Ye Qi was rummaging through the desk drawer and found a printed form and an exquisite wooden box. He picked up the form and glanced at it, and said excitedly: "Shirley is indeed a pianist, and he is very famous. I Find a schedule for her tour!"
He spread out the form and put it on the table, only to see-
November 25: Day-Tokyo, concert.
December 7: Piano performance in Oslo, Norway.
December 12: Piano performance in Frankfurt, Germany.
Xiao Lou said clearly: "No wonder Lucia's diary mentioned that her parents were too busy during this time and did not accompany her. It turns out that her mother has been busy going abroad to perform." He walked over and asked, "What's in the wooden box." ?"
Ye Qi opened the wooden box and found that there was a number puzzle inside. All numbers were filled in around it. Only the middle ones were empty, and there was a note beside it: "A Christmas gift for Shirley is just a puzzle. You can get it-Wells who loves you."
Ye Qi handed the wooden box to Xiao Lou: "Professor Xiao, this number puzzle is a bit weird. What do you think the code will be?"
Xiao Lou took the wooden box and took a look. This number puzzle is not a nine-square grid. The entire puzzle is 6×6 with a total of 36 grids, of which 24 have been filled in with numbers, and there are 12 vacancies left. You can’t find any rules after filling in the numbers. Adding and subtracting in horizontal and vertical rows won’t work, and you can’t get the answer according to the 1-9 Sudoku method.
Xiao Lou looked at the puzzle and thought carefully. Since it is a gift from the husband to his wife, these 12 vacant numbers are probably related to his wife. He looked at the schedule of Shirley’s overseas performances this month, and then looked at the globe on the desktop. .
Xiao Lou's eyes suddenly lit up: "Liu Qiao, find a few places where Shirley performed on the globe!"
Liu Qiao was right next to the globe, and when he heard this, he immediately rotated the globe and found Tokyo in Japan, Oslo in Norway, and Frankfurt in Germany.
Xiao Loudao: "Check the latitude and longitude of these cities."
Liu Qiao quickly found the results against the globe, saying: "Tokyo in Japan is 35 degrees north latitude and 139 degrees east longitude, Oslo, Norway is 59 degrees north latitude and 10 degrees east longitude, and Frankfurt, Germany is 50 degrees north latitude and 8 degrees east longitude..."
Xiao Lou filled the latitudes 35, 59, and 50 of the three places into the six blanks in the first row, and then filled the longitude numbers 139108 of the three places into the remaining puzzle blanks.
Sure enough, there was a soft "pop" in the ear, and the mezzanine of the mechanism box was opened.
Ye Qi couldn't help but sighed: "The globe, it turns out to be used for checking latitude and longitude!" When he saw the globe just now, he was thinking, should he turn a few times to unlock it
Xiao Lou saw the detailed place names on the hostess’s performance schedule, and there was just a globe on the table. Only then did he think that the city’s latitude and longitude might correspond to the digital puzzles. This kind of "connection thinking" is very important in escape room games. One of the skills.
Below the mezzanine of the box, there is a sapphire necklace and a greeting card.
The greeting card reads-
"Dear Shirley, we have been married for ten years. You have been very busy these years. You often go to perform around the world. My company is also very busy. We always can't spare too much time to accompany each other. But, please Believe that no matter where you go, my heart is with you.
This Christmas, shall we all rest for a while
Take your baby girl to travel the world. I think this is the best gift for Lucia. "
Xiao Lou read this greeting card and looked at Yu Hanjiang: "This family is very rich. The male owner is the company owner and the hostess is a pianist. They live in a luxurious villa, but because the two are too busy, they don't have time to accompany their daughter. Daughter. During the period of illness, he was always taken care of by the nanny and family doctor."
Yu Hanjiang nodded: "The plan of the host is to travel around the world with the whole family on Christmas Eve, so many people were invited to open arty at home on Christmas Eve, but he did not expect that this Christmas Eve would turn into a night of death. ."
The body of the hostess was found in the piano room, so what about the host
