When RUO Yu and the other two came out of the ladies ‘room, brother Jue and the other two boys had been waiting at the door for more than a minute.
“How is it? Did you get anything?” Feng bujue asked.
“I didn’t find a single item, but … There seems to be a hint.” An Yueqin replied.
Before he could finish, Xiao Ling continued,””In the women’s bathroom, there are three graffiti on the wall. The first one is a game of three consecutive chess, the second one is a game of hannota, and the third one is a little weirder … It looks like a bunch of irregular patterns composed of many curves, and its meaning is unclear.”
“Have you all memorized the three diagrams?” Feng bujue asked.!!
“We definitely remember the first two paintings.” This time, it was RUO Yu who replied,”but the third painting … Only Xiao Ling can remember it completely.”
“Oh … Sure.” Feng bujue nodded.”Since you’ve memorized everything, let’s go.”
“Eh? What’s the situation on your side?” Seeing that brother Jue had turned to leave, an Yueqin quickly asked,”
“I’ve naturally noted down the situation here, but to save time, I suggest we talk while we walk. ” When Feng bujue replied, he had already pulled Xiao Tan to the second floor.
Seeing this, the others didn’t say anything more and quickly followed. An Yueqin, who was holding the other “flashlight,” also walked to the back of the team to cover the rear.
“The situation in the men’s room is similar to your room.” They had only walked two to three meters when brother Jue started his explanation.”There is no graffiti here, but behind the door of each of the three cubicles, there is a line of words …” He paused and continued,”behind the door of the first cubicle, it says ‘careful pool’. The second one had ‘watch your step’ written behind it. The third one is ‘don’t run in the corridor’.”
“Hmm …” As soon as brother Jue finished, Ling said,”leader, have you realized that the information hidden in the two toilets is probably …”
“That’s right. ” Before the man could finish, Feng bujue added,”the information is the ‘important hint’ for each room.” He paused for half a second and continued,”the graffiti in the women’s bathroom is obviously a hint to the idea of the ‘magic grid’. The puzzle of the magic square appeared in the music classroom, and the puzzle of the music classroom can only be solved by the three-thousand nunnery. Since the three-thousand nunnery is a girl … The clue appeared in the women’s washroom. ”
“Oh! I understand. ” When he heard that, Xiao Tan interjected,”according to what you said … The ‘be careful of the sink’ in the men’s toilet is a warning to the sink in the biology classroom. The puzzle in the biology classroom has to be solved by me … Or ‘Sakata’, and Sakata is a boy, so the clue is in the men’s room. ”
“Yes, I am.” Feng bujue replied,”in other words, after we leave the second year Class A classroom, the best course of action should be to go to the toilet. If we had seen the clue inside the toilet before entering the biology and music classroom, then we would have been able to solve the puzzle of the ‘seat number’ more easily, and Xiao Tan would have been able to avoid being injured by the monster.” As he spoke, he shrugged his shoulders.”But … It’s not too late. Our team is quite strong after all. Although we didn’t follow the best procedure, we didn’t suffer too many losses. Anyway, just pay attention to what’s coming next. ”
“Then … Based on this hypothesis, can we deduce this …” RUO Yu suddenly thought of something. She looked at brother Jue and said,”in the next scenario, we will have to solve at least four more puzzles, and for these four areas, you, me, Xiao Ling, and ghost hunter will have to use their own unique skills to solve them.”
“Yes,” Feng bujue replied,”the possibility of that happening is very high.”
“If that’s the case, we don’t have much time left.” The demon ghost added,”even if we include the classroom at the beginning, we have only explored two and a half areas … And one of them has run out of power. If we continue at our current pace, the lighting equipment will most likely not last until the last room. ”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already thought about this. ” “From this moment on, we will increase our pace and explore two more areas,” Feng bujue said.”If the situation doesn’t look good, we will return to the biology classroom and use the alcohol and gauze on the experiment table to make a few torches. With that method … We should be able to hold on for another half an hour.”
“Oh … And this.” When ghost hunter heard this, he was slightly relieved.
The conversation between the few of them had progressed to this point, and they had just arrived at the bottom of the flight of steps.
The leader, Xiao Tan, did not think much of it. He just raised the flashlight and looked up before he prepared to head upstairs.
However, at this moment …
“Wait!” Brother Jue, who was standing next to Xiao Tan, suddenly reached out to stop him and quickly added,”something’s not right …”
In this gloomy and oppressive environment, the phrase “something’s wrong” itself was also a factor that could make people feel afraid …
“What … What?” Xiao Tan pulled his foot back and stammered a reply.
“Look closely …” Feng bujue turned around and used his eyes to point at the steps ahead.”There are footprints … On the steps.”
“Eh?” With the man’s reminder, Xiao Tan quickly realized this.”Oh! There really is one!”
Indeed, there were footprints on the wooden steps, but … They had to be directly illuminated by light and looked at from a certain angle to be seen clearly.
The width of the steps was about 1.2 meters, and there was a footprint on each step. There were no shoe prints in the footprints, only the outer “outline”, which looked “hollow.”
“It seems like … This is where ‘pay attention to your feet’ is pointing at.” “Not in the room, but on the stairs,” Feng bujue said.”Ha …” He could not help but laugh.”It’s hard to guard against it.”
“Then … How do we solve this puzzle?” Ghost hunter, who was following behind him, asked.
“Isn’t it obvious? Just follow the footprints on the steps and step on them. ” Feng bujue said.
“Oh … I’ll just press … Eh?” The demon ghost wanted to answer, but he felt something was wrong.”How did it become me going first?”
“Of course. Since this is the puzzle corresponding to the hint in the men’s room, a boy is needed to solve it.” Feng bujue replied,”Xiao Tan’s Sakura has already finished the dissection puzzle in the biology classroom, so it’s just you and me now.”
“Then what basis do you use to determine that you shouldn’t be the one to go?” Asked the demon ghost.
When Feng bujue heard that, he immediately raised one of his legs and suspended his foot above the footprint on the first step. Then, he used what he thought was a perfect English pronunciation to say,”“LOOK.”
The demon ghost looked at it, squinted his eyes, and said,””Tsk … Because your feet are big?”
“My feet aren’t big, but they’re definitely not as small as some people who are less than 1.7 meters tall.” Feng bujue was able to add personal attacks into a normal conversation without even thinking, and that was a talent.
“Stop being so long-winded! I’m not done with my puberty yet!” The demon ghost replied fiercely, took a few steps forward, and turned on his flashlight again.”Okay, okay … I don’t have time to talk to you. We’re in a hurry.”
For the sake of the big picture, ghost hunter did not continue to argue with brother Jue and immediately started to move.
Creak! Creak! Creak!
This was the sound of the demon ghost stepping on the first step … It was the kind of sound that could be made when a wooden board was about to be broken at any time.
Of course, even though the sound was scary, the stairs did not break.
“Damn … The layout of these footprints is quite sharp …” The demon ghost was about to take a second step when he realized that the left footprint on the second step was to the right of the right footprint on the first step.”Are they trying to climb up the stairs while twisting their bodies?”
Although he was complaining, now that things had come to this … He didn’t know what would happen if he took a step back, so he could only brace himself and finish the road in front of him.
Thus, the demon ghost began his step-by-step journey.
He had only taken a few steps when ghost hunter noticed … That the shape of the footprint was almost the same size as his foot. This made him feel uncomfortable, but it also proved that brother Jue was right. He was the one who had to crack the mechanism of the stairs.
Level one, level two …
The demon ghost’s balance was good. Even if the distribution of the footprints on the steps was deliberately embarrassing, he still firmly stepped on every footprint.
After walking Twelve Steps, the demon ghost came to a corner connecting two steps.
There were no footprints in this area, so he stepped on it directly. The moment his feet touched the flat surface, the 12 steps he had stepped on made a strange squeaking sound.
Then, a faint black smoke rose from the steps, and with the faint smoke … The outline of the footprints on the steps disappeared.
“Hmm …” Feng bujue saw that and read,”after you’re done, it seems like you can walk freely on the steps.”
After saying that, he lifted his foot and tried to climb two levels. In the end, nothing happened. Even the “creak” sound had disappeared.
This way, everyone no longer hesitated. Ten seconds later, all five of them had reached the corner of the stairs.
“Okay … Then I’ll continue.” After everyone was in position, the demon ghost stepped forward again to step on the second half of the stairs.
Creak creak creak creak creak creak
Just like the first half, when the demon ghost was breaking the mechanism, the steps were still making sounds.
This time, he walked even faster than before. After a few steps, he could see beyond the height of the second floor. At this time, if he looked forward, he would be able to see the corridor on the second floor.
As for ghost hunter … He did raise his flashlight and look up.
It didn’t matter if he didn’t look, but the moment he saw it, he was so scared that he almost rolled down the stairs.
“Hey …” Perhaps it was because he was too frightened, but ghost hunter didn’t shout this time. He just used the flashlight to shine at what he saw and said in a sobbing voice without turning his head,”do you remember the guy who appeared outside the window when we were in Year 2 class A …”
Feng bujue, who was standing at the back, had already noticed the abnormality from ghost Hunter’s shaking back. When he heard that, brother Jue reacted instantly.”You saw it?”
“Hmm …” The demon ghost’s “hmm” had an obvious tremble in it. “He’s now lying about one meter away from the last step, in a crawling position … And looking at me with an evil smile.”
“How’s your condition?” Feng bujue added.
“His legs are weak. He might kneel on the ground or fall down and roll down the stairs at any time.” Ghost hunter didn’t like to beat around the bush, so he just said what he had to say.
“No way? You’ve already seen it, what’s there to be afraid of?” Feng bujue added.
“That’s what you say,” Phantom dawn replied.”But it’s the same as ‘seeing’. Looking at it from a data point of view is very different from looking at it now …” He explained,”the former is like looking at a dotted array, while the latter is like watching a horror movie.”
“Then you should just treat the horror movie as a point formation.” Feng bujue dragged his voice out.
“I’m not as capable as you …” Ghost hunter expressed that he couldn’t do anything.
“Then, just think of it this way …” Feng bujue said.”The worst case scenario is that when you walk past him, he will suddenly pounce on you. This is no different from being attacked by a normal monster, right? When the time comes, we’ll fight, fight, and die … What’s the big deal?”
“If you put it that way … You’ll really be of great help!” The third part of the demon ghost’s sentence was almost roared out. It could be seen that he was once again in a state of extreme fear and anger.
“Even though I don’t want to interrupt your conversation, I think it’s best to remind you …” RUO Yu, who was standing next to brother Jue, suddenly interrupted.”Little Phantom dawn … The flashlight in your hand doesn’t have much power left. If you went up in one go, there was a chance that you could force the monster back or suppress it with the light. However, if you continue to stand there and stare at the monster, when the flashlight goes out, I’m afraid that you don’t even need to go up, and the monster will go down …”
“Ah, Yingluo.”
Before RUO Yu could finish her sentence, the demon ghost shouted and stepped on the footprints on the steps at an extremely fast speed.
It was obvious that RUO Yu’s words had worked.
This incident told us that one of the ways Yingluo wanted to force a person to face the fear in front of them was to use a kind of pressure that made them more afraid to force them to act.
After a short five seconds, the demon ghost reached the end of the stairs. As he approached, the monster retreated.
Every time the demon ghost took a step forward, the monster’s expression changed. In the end … The evil smile turned into a twisted fear.
Finally, when the demon ghost stepped on the last footprint, the monster screamed under the light at a close distance. It instantly turned into a black gas and dissipated.
When the demon ghost’s feet stepped onto the corridor of the second floor, only the demon ghost’s shoes were left on the ground where the monster had crawled.
