Chapter 304: Game (4)

Fang Xiaotian's shrill cry turned into crying.

Wang Jia still had blood on his hands, and his movements were a little awkwardly hugging Fang Xiaotian's shoulders.

Leon couldn't make a sound. With a shake of his hand, he almost dropped his phone.

Lu Yu was completely stunned, and could only watch the corpse on the coffee table.

The first of the five people to react was Xie Xuanrong, an experienced player.

He hurried to the entrance and felt for the light switch on the wall.

All the lights are turned on.

The living room is back up, and so is the balcony.

There were no figures hanging from the balcony.

Xie Xuanrong didn't bother to go up to check the balcony. He endured his nausea and cautiously approached the coffee table.

The corpse on the coffee table was not the butler. The butler was gone.

The corpse was so realistic, the blood was like real blood. The wounds on the chest and abdomen of the corpse were extremely hideous. The exposed internal organs were drowning in blood.

Xie Xuanrong looked at it for a while, and gradually saw something strange.

"It's a dummy. It should be a dummy. Xie Xuanrong breathed a sigh of relief and touched the corpse's face with his bloodstained hand.

The blood on his hands was smeared on the corpse's face.

"It's fake." Xie Xuanrong said affirmatively.

The corpse is very realistic, and if you feel the skin, you can feel a different touch than human skin.

Xie Xuanrong said this, and the other four gradually calmed down.

"It's disgusting! That's scary, isn't it? Ah, my shoes! Fang Xiaotian shouted.

Wang Jia hurriedly raised his hand, afraid that the blood on his hand would drip on Fang Xiaotian's body.

Fang Xiaotian got up and dodged the coffee table and the corpse on the coffee table. She took two steps, and the bloody footprints were left on the wooden floor.

Lu Yu and Li Ang followed suit.

The two of them looked down and saw that their clothes were also splattered with some blood.

"Where's the bathroom? And the guy just now? Wang Jia asked.

"With this arrangement, shouldn't we be given a raincoat first?" Leon also complained. He calmed down a lot, but he didn't dare to look at the corpse on the coffee table.

Xie Xuanrong directly opened the wooden door with glass window grilles next to him.

"The restroom is here."

Wang Jia followed closely and also entered the bathroom.

The washroom was clean.

The sound of rushing water came out.

Lu Yu glanced at the corpse a few times, looked away, and lined up at the door of the bathroom.

She and Fang Xiaotian didn't have blood on their hands. Both wanted to clean up their clothes.

Fang Xiaotian grabbed Lu Yu's hand and complained, and she quickly shifted the spearhead to Xie Xuanrong.

"Where did you find this shop? This is too much, and I want a bad review. If I can't wash it off, I'll have to pay them money. Fang Xiaotian said.

Xie Xuanrong had already washed his hands and moved out of the way.

Wang Jia motioned for Fang Xiaotian to clean up first, and stood aside with his bloodstained hands.

"I found it on the Internet. I've played all the ones I can find, and none of them have updated the content. This home is new. Xie Xuanrong was also a little annoyed, and then became excited, "Don't you think you're very handsome?" Explain the background and turn off the lights at the end, and the corpse appears, it's amazing. Just forgot to give us disposable raincoats. Tell them about it when the time comes. ”

Lu Yu had to admit that Xie Xuanrong was very reasonable.

The atmosphere was excellent, and the magic show at the end was wonderful.

Although frightened, Lu Yu was not angry.

Fang Xiaotian was the most angry one, and it was only the blood of the gas props that stained his clothes.

"Hey, did you get it done? The man didn't know where to go. There was no one on the balcony either. Leon shouted outside.

Xie Xuanrong walked out.

The remaining three people quickly cleaned up.

Fang Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief. I don't know what kind of prop that blood is, but it's easy to clean.

Or maybe the store has been preparing for a long time. Hand sanitizer placed on the sink with the label peeled off is just right to wash away the bloodstains. Next to the sink, there is also a hair dryer.

Both girls cleaned up and left the bathroom.

"Leon, you don't wash? You've got it on your clothes. Fang Xiaotian said.

Leon shook his head and wiped his jeans casually, "It's nothing." ”

He and Xie Xuanrong were observing the balcony.

When the curtains are opened, the balcony is completely exposed.

The windows of the balcony are closed by wooden boards. The planks still look solid wood, thick and sturdy.

There is a clothes pole above the balcony and there is nothing on the ground.

"There is no projector...... How did you get that effect? Xie Xuanrong was very surprised.

Wang Jia came out of the bathroom, "Let's start the game?" Do you want to investigate this? He gestured to the corpse on the coffee table.

"There might be something in the pocket of your clothes." Xie Xuanrong turned around and said.

Fang Xiaotian pulled Lu Yu back, "I don't want to touch that." I just washed it off. ”

Lu Yu didn't want to touch the bloody corpse.

She and Fang Xiaotian looked around the cabinet on the side.

There is a kettle on the small table next to the cupboard. The cabinet is filled with cups and saucers, tea leaves, and snacks.

Just now, the butler took things out of here. The refreshments that had been placed on the coffee table are now gone.

On the wall next to the cabinet is a promotional poster.

Lu Yu stared at the poster for a while, and was about to stretch out his hand when he heard Li Ang's voice.

"There's a key." Leon found a bunch of keys from the corpse's pocket.

There is no key chain on the key, there are three keys in total, one is brass, and the other two, one is an ordinary silver key, and the other is the key to the security door.

"This looks like the key to the door lock." Xie Xuanrong took the key and walked towards the only door in the room that was all wood.

"So what's this room? Kitchen? Wang Jia opened another wooden door inlaid with glass curtains.

The two opened the door at the same time.

Wang Jia opened the kitchen, and Xie Xuanrong opened the bedroom door.

"There's a kitchen." Leon is more interested in the kitchen.

Wang Jia casually opened the refrigerator door in the kitchen, "There are drinks and food." ”

"It's all there? How long is this game? Fang Xiaotian walked to the kitchen.

"Is it something their staff eats?" Lu Yu was also attracted to the past.

"Possibly." Wang Jia said.

Leon rummaged through the kitchen and turned the cabinets upside down.

"Don't rummage." Fang Xiaotian said.

"There's no signage. They're that big, which means all the rooms can be explored, right? Leon said.

Lu Yu thought of something, and when he looked back, he saw that Xie Xuanrong was still standing at the door of the bedroom, motionless.

"Ah Rong, what are you doing?" Lu Yu asked, "What's in the room?" ”

Xie Xuanrong turned around.

Lu Yu saw that his face was pale and his expression was very ugly.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yu asked uneasily.

Everyone else also looked at Xie Xuanrong.

There was a loud bang.

Something like a pot fell to the ground.

Lu Yu was taken aback.

She subconsciously looked in the direction where the voice came from.

Leon opened the door of the cabinet above, and the pot that fell on the ground should have fallen out of it.

"Scared the hell out of me." Fang Xiaotian stroked his chest.

Leon himself was taken aback. He picked up the pot on the floor and tried to stuff it back into the cupboard, but he couldn't.

There seems to be too much stuff in the cabinet. So as soon as Li Ang opened the cabinet door, the pot that was barely stuffed inside would fall out.

Leon simply gave up and put the pot outside.

The four of them remembered Xie Xuanrong again at this time.

The four of them looked at the bedroom door together.

Xie Xuanrong, who was supposed to be standing there, disappeared.

"Ah Rong?" Lu Yu shouted.

"Ah Rong went in?" Leon asked.

The four of them walked to the bedroom.

The bedroom was empty, and no one was in sight.

The bedroom windows are like balconies, boarded up.

"Ah Rong?" Lu Yu shouted again. This time, her voice trembled a little.

No one answered.

"Won't it?" Two men, Wang Jia and Li Ang, walked into the room.

Fang Xiaotian hugged Lu Yu, "Xie Xuanrong, don't be scary!" ”

Saying this, Fang Xiaotian's eyes rolled wildly, wanting to find Xie Xuanrong's trace in the room where he could see the whole picture at a glance.

There is no one under the computer desk; There was no one under the bed; There is no one in the closet; It is impossible to hide people in a bookshelf full of books.

There was no place to hide in this small room.

"What's going on?" Fang Xiaotian was about to cry.

Wang Jia picked up the telephone extension on the bedside table.

"Busy. The phone is good. Wang Jia was a little confused.

"What's going on?" Leon said anxiously, casually pulling the sheets.

The sheets were old-fashioned printed sheets.

Lu Yu looked at the sheets and pillows, and couldn't help but think of his childhood.

She looked at the bookcase right in the doorway.

The books in the bookcase include Dinosaur Encyclopedia, Famous Books for Teenagers, Selected Elementary School Essays, and Comics...... The books are a mix of old and new. The primary school essay selection that seemed to have been turned over many times made Lu Yu feel a little kind again.

She felt that the props in this escape room game were very detailed, like a well-made movie set.

Looking at the whole room again, Lu Yu asked softly, "Is this also part of the decryption?" ”

"Is it role-playing? Ah Rong was the first to come and may have been assigned a role. Wang Jia said suddenly.

"yes." Fang Xiaotian's hand holding Lu Yu loosened a little.

"That's interesting." Leon said.

After the four of them said this, they all fell silent again.

"I should check the computer." Wang Jia quickly had an idea.

The computer is a desktop computer, and it is the clumsy desktop computer of the past, the monitor is not an LCD screen, and the host is also very bulky, and it is placed in a special place under the computer desk. A mouse is a wired mouse. There are also two speakers at the back of the monitor.

Wang Jia was a little unaccustomed to such an old computer, and looked at it carefully for a while before finding the power button on the host.

When the power button is pressed, nothing happens.

"Is there no power?" Fang Xiaotian said.

Wang Jia bent down and looked at the power strip under the computer desk.

He simply climbed in.

Just listen to the click.

"Alright." Wang Jia got out from under the table and pressed the power switch on the main computer again.

The computer is turned on.

There is a fan turning sound in the main unit.

The monitor lights up, and a boot tone comes from the speakers on either side of it.

This old computer boots up very quickly.

The four of them only saw the boot animation of Windows 98 on the screen, and the screen became a classic Windows system screen.

Blue sky, white clouds, green grassland......

There are also icons for programs such as "My Computer" on the desktop.

"Isn't that right?" Lu Yu said suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Wang Jia asked, and clicked on "My Computer".

"As mentioned earlier, the first murder was in 1991, was the computer like this at that time?" Lu Yu asked.

"Isn't there a total of three murders? A family of three also moved in the back. ”

But, the man said, it didn't take long...... The interval between several things is not long, right? Lu Yu said hesitantly.

She doesn't have the ability to forget.

The story told by the butler also lacks precise details.

However, after hearing it, she had the impression that several cases had occurred one after another.

If it was the 90s and the 98 system was used on the home computer, it means that the computer represents at least 98 years. From 1991 to 1998......

"It's 2000." Leon spoke suddenly, and pointed to the date in the lower right corner of the computer screen.

3 October 2000.

This is the date displayed on the computer.

"Maybe it took years for the family to seek revenge on the murderer." Fang Xiaotian said.

Wang Jia had already checked the D drive at this time.

There is only one folder called "Work" in the D drive, which is empty.

Wang Jia opened the E drive again and saw a folder named "New Folder 1".

The folder opens, revealing rows of photo files.

There is no preview of the photos, so Wang Jia can only open them.

In the first photo, two strangers look like a middle-aged couple.

"Isn't this the old couple who first murdered?"

"Age isn't right?"

"Could it be the one who takes revenge?"

The four of them discussed.

Wang Jia quickly clicked on the second photo.

In addition to the couple just seen, there is also a couple of similar ages in the photo.

The four of them were even more confused.

In the third photo, there are more people, like a group gathering.

The backgrounds of the three photos are very similar, all by the lake.

"That's too detailed, isn't it?" Fang Xiaotian sighed, "Are there so many group performances? ”

"Maybe it was just buying some photos." Leon said.

The fourth photo is opened, and the protagonists are still the same couple, and the background is changed.

"So many of them to see one by one?" Leon asked.

Wang Jia didn't answer, just continued his operation.

Lu Yu felt that something was wrong.

Her gaze gradually shifted from the photographs to the names of the photographs.

The names of the photos are all numbers, long numbers, which seem to be irregular, but one of the numbers makes people know at a glance that it is the date.

These photos also look like digital photographs.

98 of the system, the date of the year 2000, and the date of these digital photographs and photographs......

...... 2017

Lu Yu had goosebumps on his body.

The photos that were originally constantly switched by Wang Jia also stopped.

Lu Yu found that the other three stopped talking.

She saw the shocked looks of the three of them, and hurriedly followed their gaze.

In a new photo, in addition to the couple, there is another person.

This is a group photo of a family of three.

The person standing in the middle and holding the couple's shoulders was Xie Xuanrong.

Lu Yu's mouth opened wide in surprise.

"That's too ...... It's too ......" Leon didn't find a suitable adjective for a long time.

Wang Jia began to switch photos again.

It didn't take long for them to see themselves.

They saw a photo of themselves and Xie Xuanrong.

The photo was taken at a previous party. All four had an impression of the photos.

The owner of this computer seems to be Xie Xuanrong.

But how is this possible?

"It's a photo on Ah Rong's phone, right? Before we came, he took the script and moved the photos from his phone to the computer. also acted in a big change just now. Wang Jia said.

"That's pretty good." Leon finally found an adjective.

Lu Yu only felt that the goosebumps on his body had not disappeared.

Fang Xiaotian frowned, "This is not very good, right?" We've got our photos here. ”

"It must be Ah Rongfang's, there won't be those private photos." Leon said.

"That's privacy, isn't it? Pictures of his parents were in. Fang Xiaotian continued to frown.

"When we clear the customs, we'll delete it." Wang Jia said soothingly.

Fang Xiaotian wanted to say something, but finally held back.

"Are there any other clues?" Leon leaned closer to the computer screen.

Wang Jia no longer opens those photos one by one.

He arranged the files by list of names, scrolled his mouse, and scanned them at a glance.

"This!" Leon was the first to discover photos with different names.

They thought it was a new photo, but they didn't expect the image file to be a painting.

The portrait was a child's drawing, very abstract, but it immediately reminded the four of them of the background of the story they had heard before and the silhouette of the balcony they had seen.

A row of corpses lined up on the clothes pole on the balcony.

That's what the painting is about.

The computer screen went black.

The pitch-black screen reflected the faces of Wang Jia and Li Ang, as well as the bodies of Fang Xiaotian and Lu Yu standing next to them.

"Broken?" An expression of surprise appeared on Wang Jia's face.

He looked down at the mainframe.

The light on the console's power button has been turned off.

Without waiting for Wang Jia to do anything, the light in the bedroom was suddenly turned off.
