The so-called escape room is a relatively common real-life adventure game, which requires finding clues to solve the puzzle and leave the room in one or even several rooms.
Find all the clues within the time limit, solve the puzzles one by one, and you can pass the level.
Generally, there are two types of secret rooms, mechanical secret rooms and puzzle-solving secret rooms.
Half a month before the start of the mission, Chi Xiaochi, Yuan Benshan, and the Gan family brothers and sisters would go together whenever they were free, and they went through all the escape rooms in the city.
To solve the secret room, the clearance rate of Chi Xiaochi is 85%.
Mechanical Chamber of Secrets, the clearance rate is 2%.
Chi Xiaochi was puzzled by such biased data. '
He said to Xi Lou, "I can draw and do hand-made radio repairs. Why can't I just play games?"
In Chi Xiaochi's view, this is a complete unsolved mystery.
He has never been able to beat the first level of Super Mario. He can only play in human-machine mode when playing competitive mobile games. He can also play on a par with the computer. He even was accidentally killed by the computer at one point. Angrily changed minesweeper and completed three advanced levels before regaining self-confidence.
Xi Lou has simply raised his eyebrows these days: "Hee hee hee."
Chi Xiaochi was heartbroken: "Tong, you are floating."
Xi Lou was in a particularly good mood: "You take care of me."
Chi Xiaochi's shortcomings are not easy to catch, and manipulating machinery happens to be the part that Gan Yu is extremely good at, so Xi Lou can safely mock Chi Xiaochi without worrying about the next task.
While speaking, Chi Xiaochi put down the lens in his hand again, and took a few deep breaths to calm his emotions.
This lens is used to refract infrared rays. A beam of infrared light is refracted through the mirror surface to the sensor A mounted on the wall, and then projected to the sensor B, and finally falls on the sensor C. The three sides of ABC are connected, and the last door the door lock will open.
Therefore, the angle of placement of this lens must be extremely tricky.
They arrived in this room fifteen minutes ago.
And Chi Xiaochi's eyes turned into cross-eyed after 12 minutes of lenses.
Xi Lou was responsible for speaking sarcastically on the side.
"A year has passed," he said.
Chi Xiaochi holding the lens: "..."
Xi Lou: "Ten years have passed."
Chi Xiaochi said with grief and indignation: "Trash games ruin my youth."
Yuan Benshan was away today because of overtime work. Gan Yu couldn't see it, so he took the initiative to take the lens: "I'll come."
He spends a minute observing and measuring the angle, then raises the lens and adjusts the angle for another minute.
With a ding, the final door opened.
Gan Yu put down her glasses and smiled at Chi Xiaochi: "Let's go."
The customs clearance reward was three plastic little white bear pendants that would chirp when squeezed. Chi Xiaochi was in a bad mood, so he simply squeezed it in the palm of his hand to let out his anger.
Gan Tang smoothed his hair gently: "Chunyang, don't be angry. My brother treats you tonight, please eat well."
Chi Xiaochi said, "How many meals have you had for your brother? Let's go out to eat hot pot tonight, and let Lao Yuan come and invite you."
Gan Yu said, "Go to my house and cook hot pot for you to eat."
Chi Xiaochi thought for a while and agreed.
But he made a request: "I want to eat what Sister Gan Tang cooked."
Gan Yu adjusted the glasses chain to hide her disappointment.
And Gan Tang smiled and said, "Okay."
He did not ask Yuan Benshan to share Gan Tang's hot pot.
And Yuan Benshan was busy with work and came back later than him.
By the time he got home, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
When he was tired and put the key on the bedside table, he heard voices coming from the direction of the back room, thinking that Song Chunyang was calling someone, so he walked to the back room on his own.
When he opened the door, the mandarin duck-eyed kitten lying on the bed also looked at him, and his beautiful and precious eyes seemed to be extremely innocent and provocative.
Yuan Benshan stretched out his arms, hugged him, put his nose to his shoulder and sniffed lightly: "It smells like hot pot... Have you eaten hot pot?"
The kitten protested, "I've already had a bath."
Yuan Benshan smiled, put his chin on his shoulder, and rubbed his feet lightly.
The atmosphere between the two is charming and affectionate, and the apricot-yellow light shines on the two of them, making them look like a deeply affectionate couple.
They should indeed be a pair of lovers. They have both experienced life and death together. Is there anything else that can separate them.
"... I'm so tired. I feel better when I hold it for a while." Yuan Benshan asked him, "Who did you call just now?"
Kitten replied, "Sister Su. She said she was going to hold a parent-teacher conference for her daughter tomorrow afternoon and asked me to work for her for an extra hour."
Yuan Benshan kissed his hair: "Forget it this time, don't promise others casually next time, or they will find you if you have to work overtime in the future."
"understood."
Yuan Benshan liked Song Chunyang who was so obedient, got up to take a bath, and planned to have a good time with him for a while.
He hadn't enjoyed that with Song Chunyang for a long time.
However, he had no idea that after turning around and entering the bathroom, the person on the bed immediately rolled over and rushed to the trash can outside, vomiting so much that his stomach acid came out.
When it was over, he calmly tied the plastic bag, went downstairs to throw in the garbage, and felt his stomach, thinking regretfully that there were sea cucumbers in the hot pot at night.
When Yuan Benshan finished washing and pushed open the glass door, he found Song Chunyang waiting outside.
He said: "I still have a little smell on my body, wash it again."
Yuan Benshan raised his hand and pinched his nose: "Then I'll wait for you."
But he couldn't wait.
When he lay back on the bed, an irresistible drowsiness seized his nerves, causing him to fall asleep directly.
Chi Xiaochi in the bathroom turned off the interface for using the hypnosis card, turned on the water volume of the shower head to the maximum, closed his eyes, and quietly felt the sensation of hot water flowing all over his body.
The panel in front of him showed that Yuan Benshan's favorability value for Song Chunyang was 89, and his regret value was 0.
He selected the warehouse from the panel page and took out the spirit lock bottle from it.
After playing it upside down for a while, he suddenly asked, "...Do you believe in cause and effect?"
No one answered his question, only the sound of water gushing.
He smiled and put the things in his hands back into the warehouse again.
In addition to practicing room escape, Chi Xiaochi also investigated whether there was any tragic death near Jinhong Building.
The results were not very pleasant.
When the foundation of the Jinhong Building was just laid and it was still a construction site, a murderer came here, killed two young workers, and hid in the building, but he was also shot by the police who were looking for him.
This prisoner is a pure psychopath, an avid lover of captivity and abuse, and he doesn't even know where he got his inspiration to grow fungi from the bodies of people he played with to death.
Apparently, even if he was dead, he would lie in the coffin, shouting out with his rotten vocal cords: I haven't had enough.
This time, the ghost probably won't teach the Basic Law like the balloon girls and children in the eighth and ninth worlds.
Beyond that, there are many things to worry about.
The difficulty of escape room is too flexible, and for short-process games, there are infinite variables, which are inseparable from the player's luck and state.
And what Chi Xiaochi was most worried about was people.
If there are too many people, the mouth will be mixed, and the mouth will be confused.
Facts have proved that even if you go to the tenth world, you can't avoid the strange creatures like pig teammates.
It would be better if only the four of them participated. I'm afraid that if there are too many people, some people will give random instructions, lead random ideas, or hide props, which will cause everyone to be confused and waste time. In the end, everyone stretches their legs together. Stare, the painting is beautiful.
However, when he arrived downstairs in Room 1207 of Jinhong Building an hour before the appointed time, the surface of Chi Xiaochi was as calm as water.
He didn't intend to let those superfluous emotions interfere with his judgment, and even if he really encountered the worst situation, he would be able to make a move.
On the other hand, Yuan Benshan couldn't hide his excitement, so he tightly held Chi Xiaochi's hand on the elevator, his palm was full of sweat.
He said softly, "Chunyang, we can go out soon."
Chi Xiaochi looked at the elevator numbers that kept jumping up.
The shiny silver elevator walls reflected his cold eyes.
But his voice was as cheerful and hopeful as ever: "Hmm."
After entering the escape room called "Lost Realm", they lied about waiting for their friends, but the little brother in charge of watching the store didn't care much because they didn't seem to be social idlers, so he bowed his head and played his game.
Yuan Benshan was so excited that his whole body was hot, and he took off his shirt to the mirror under the pretext of going to the toilet.
There were already nine clear engravings on his back, and the only one left by the caudal vertebra was a dense, unformed black mist.
For more than two years, he has not dared to enter the bathhouse, dare not go swimming, even if he changes clothes, he has to sneak up, always afraid that the task will take his life, where is the life of a person
Well now, they are one step away from success!
a step far!
After today, Yuan Benshan will be free and will no longer be bound by this damn system!
Chi Xiaochi played the game of drawing blocks with himself outside, tapped out the blocks that were placed side by side with his fingertips, and then pulled out the blocks on the other side to disperse the anxiety that might arise while waiting. .
30 minutes before the start of the mission, the person they were waiting for arrived.
The other party is also a four-member alliance, two men and two women.
Because it is the tenth mission, everyone knows what it means after the clearance, so despite trying to hide it, the heartfelt joy and tension can never be suppressed.
Chi Xiaochi frowned slightly.
… This kind of mentality of quick success is not what one should have before the escape room.
The four quickly locked onto Chi Xiaochi and his group, sat at a table with them, and started chatting.
The leader among them was a wheat-colored man with high eyebrows and a mean look. As soon as he sat down, he scolded Fang Qiu and said, "Let's talk first, after entering, everything has to listen to me."
Yuan Benshan did not agree: "I think we should cooperate, there is no such thing as 'to listen to who'."
The man said: "Cooperation is cooperation, but there is always a need for a leader."
Yuan Benshan was noncommittal, turned his head, and asked Chi Xiaochi's opinion with his eyes.
Chi Xiaochi calmly said, "Then listen to you."
Gan Yu and Gan Tang also voted "It doesn't matter", and the man's face softened a lot, and he introduced himself to the people on their side.
The team met during the first mission, and then became teammates in nine worlds.
The pair of girls are colleagues and best friends in the same unit. The taller one is called Qiao Yun, and the one as thin as a bamboo pole is called Jia Siyuan. It is said that they have strong athletic ability, but their personalities are very different. If she didn't, even if someone asked her name, she had to look at Qiao Yun subconsciously before she spoke.
The man who clamored to be a leader called himself Meng Gan, a freelancer. His usual occupation was to play games at home when he was idle.
Since he came in, he has been introducing his brilliant achievements in the past, claiming that without him, the team of four would not even be able to make it through the second mission.
He tried to prove his ability, and he also tried to dispel the fear that he was about to enter the tenth mission by bragging.
In contrast, Chi Xiaochi has a better sense of another boy wearing black-rimmed glasses.
His name is Xu Jiayi, and he looks like a college student. At first glance, he looks ordinary, but he is very calm and has the most stable mentality among the four.
In this mission, Chi Xiaochi is still called "Lou Xiaochi".
He didn't even introduce himself, he just sat quietly, staring at the clock on the wall.
Thirty seconds before the mission begins.
Twenty seconds.
ten seconds.
Five seconds.
one second.
…
Before Xi Lou reminded him that the mission had officially started, a familiar cold mist suddenly rose in the room, shrouding several people in an instant.
Everyone's nerves were extremely tense, so when the sound of a broken bottle sounded, everyone was shocked.
In the next second, the dense fog dissipated in an instant, as if encountering a cool breeze.
Before he could return to his senses, there was another muffled sound, and countless colorful confetti butterflies flew over everyone's heads, and all of them landed on their shoulders in an instant.
"Surprise!!"
The little brother who just lowered his head to play the game raised his head, and it was actually a completely changed person.
A funny clown man was smiling at them, white-toothed. His hair was exploding, dyed an unpleasant bright red, his left eye was painted with black plum blossoms of playing cards, his lips were red like pig blood, and his lipstick outlined a smiling face, and the exaggerated corners of his mouth extended to The root of the ear, the corner of the mouth hurts.
He walked out of the reception desk and bowed to the eight people pompously: "Everyone~ How are you~"
None of the eight answered.
The clown didn't feel slighted either, so he took off his parrot-like colorful hat and fanned it in his hand.
"Welcome to my game~ I have only three rooms here." The clown raised three fingers, "I have only three rules here."
"First, don't destroy my carefully prepared room. All clues are where you can see. I hate redecorating."
"Secondly, there are no clues ~ everything needs to be explored by yourself."
"Third, pay attention to the time, as long as you walk out of the third room within an hour, you can receive the gift I gave you in the fourth room~"
Like magic, he pulled out a whole handful of colorful hydrogen balloons from his hat. Xianbao said: "That's all, do you like it?"
Meng Gan summoned his courage: "...what if we didn't clear customs."
The clown laughed strangely: "Then, you will stay in that room and never get out~ At that time, I will appreciate your expressions on the monitor, hee hee hee."
His "hee" made everyone chill, Meng Gan couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up with his hands on the table, and couldn't wait to say, "Then let's start."
The clown got up and led everyone to the end of the corridor, in front of a blood-red door: "Please line up and enter one by one in an orderly manner. When the last person enters and the door is closed, the game will officially start. … Oh, right—going in. Before, I want to give you a little easter egg for free~”
He shook his finger: "I can see the darkest side of your heart."
After a brief introduction of yin and yang, everyone probably guessed that this ghost will not directly participate in the game, just an "observer" role, also put down their hearts, and lined up according to the words, ready to enter the room.
Meng Gan volunteered to be the captain, and of course he was the first to enter.
When passing by the clown standing by the door, the clown narrowed his right eye and looked at Meng Gan with his left eye, which was tattooed with black plum blossoms.
"You're—" he deliberately lengthened his tone, "arrogance. Be careful to be killed by your own arrogance, hee hee hee."
Meng Gan frowned and stepped into the darkness.
The second in line was Qiao Yun, and the clown observed him for a moment in the same way: "Hee hee, jealous. Who are you jealous of? Is that the lady behind you?"
Qiao Yun was startled and walked into the room immediately, cursing incessantly.
Xu Jiayi and Jia Siyuan also entered together. The clown's evaluation of them is not vicious, but "boring" and "timid".
When it was Chi Xiaochi's turn and the others, Yuan Benshan took the lead, walked to the clown, and heard him full of sarcasm: "Ha, cold man."
Yuan Benshan couldn't stand his pretentious tone, so he didn't pay much attention to it and walked directly into the room.
Gan Tang came up.
The clown glanced at her and raised his eyebrows with interest: "You..."
Gan Tang wanted to wait for his verdict, but he couldn't. He didn't feel confused, but he didn't delay, and went straight into the room.
When he saw Gan Yu, the clown laughed: "It turned out to be two fools! Two identical fools! This is really rare!"
Gan Yu ignored him and didn't go in, standing at the door waiting for Chi Xiaochi.
The clown laughed enough, turned to look at Chi Xiaochi: "You—"
He was stunned.
Immediately afterwards, he held onto the wall and let out a series of laughter, until tears flowed out of his eyes, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Chi Xiaochi stared at him for a long time, then smiled back.
The clown couldn't straighten his back with laughter, and waved his hands randomly, telling him to hurry in.
Until the door was closed, the harsh laughter of the clown still lingered in Chi Xiaochi's ears for a long time.
