Monster Escape Room Re-Employment Chapter 20
byA world where only the logistics team is injured (3)
Lian Shuhuai and Pang Mei found two student ID cards, belonging to Son A and Son B of Class 1, Grade 2. Judging from the photos and characteristics, they should be two of the five corpses stuck on the school gate.
The piece of paper Lian Moqin found in the guard room was a promotional poster for the drama club’s new drama, which listed the names of the main creators and starring actors. They happened to include A and B. The five dead students should all be members of the drama club.
Pushing open the heavy school gate, there is a very eye-catching notice board on the side of the square, with a map of the school posted, as well as some school notices, school news, club recruitment and other information to enhance the atmosphere.
“Let’s split up.” Lian Shuhuai said, “One group will go to investigate the drama department in the comprehensive building, and the other group will go to the teaching building to investigate the classrooms of Class 1 and Class 2 of Grade 2. This will be faster… Hmm? Where is the Pangmei man?”
Everyone looked around, and as soon as the glass door at the entrance to the teaching building closed, a figure disappeared in a flash.
“I took the first step!” Pang Mei didn’t forget to turn around and shout.
“Hey! Where are you going? Why don’t you have any team spirit?” Lian Shuhuai complained and chased after him.
Jiang Lingyi and Lian Moqin were the only ones left on the spot. A gust of wind blew from nowhere, making the paper on the notice board rustle.The two looked at each other.
“Let’s go to the complex.”
Lian Mo Qin slowly followed Jiang Lingyi.
“If I remember correctly, there will be NPCs and chase scenes later.”
“Then…I’ll wait for you outside?” Lian Moqin swallowed.
Jiang Lingyi looked around the quiet dusk campus: “You can wait as long as you want. Or go to the teaching building now, it’s not too late to join those two brats.”
He didn’t give the other party time to hesitate, quickened his pace, and went straight to the complex building on the west side. When he heard the sound of footsteps following closely behind him, he raised the corners of his mouth.
Lian Moqin who was behind him naturally didn’t notice it, but Lou Xian in the central control room could see it clearly, and suddenly there was an indescribable dull feeling in his heart.
“Turn down the air conditioner, the air doesn’t seem to be circulating properly.” He ordered the Hidden Fox Fairy.
“Okay…”
Hidden Fox Fairy is a true bystander, and he is really speechless at the level of insensitivity of his boss.
Jiang Lingyi was just looking forward to the chase after that. He had never found out that he actually had a bad taste in watching people make mistakes. Maybe it was just that the person making trouble was Lian Moqin, which made him find it interesting. Just like when watching a horror movie, the best thing to watch is not the movie, but the reaction of the friend who is afraid of ghosts.
The central control room should be able to capture a lot of images of his facial features flying around. For Lian Moqin, who is very concerned about his public image, it is a good threat material, so that he can make small moves in the future and skip work to help in the phantom chamber.
…
As soon as Lian Shuhuai stepped into the teaching building, the general announcement sounded.
“Dear students, our school implements automatic access control. According to school regulations, entry and exit are prohibited after six o’clock. If the patrol security guards find violators, they will be punished by confinement in the basement.”
The wall clock in the hall showed that it was now five-fifty, and it would be ten minutes before the access control time. If they didn’t come out before six o’clock… He didn’t want to think about it further and decided to make a quick decision.
According to the floor guide, the second-year high school classroom where A and B were located was on the east side of the second floor. He easily found Class 1. As soon as he opened the classroom door, the first thing he saw was the rear half of his body exposed under the podium, struggling to cocoon.
“What are you doing?” Lian Shuhuai frowned.
Pang Mei changed her posture and emerged from under the podium: “Look for clues, you are too slow.”
Lian Shuhuai ignored him and looked at the seating chart posted on the notice board next to the blackboard. He found A’s seat and pulled out a diary. It was full of messy sentences, but the handwriting was very neat.
Just when he felt a little excited about solving the puzzle, Pang Mei said: “Oh, I’ve seen that one. The solution to the puzzle is in B’s locker. The last key item pointed to was confiscated by the teacher. It may be placed in the teacher’s office, but there are security guards patrolling there, so be careful not to get caught.”
Lian Shuhuai:……
Very poor experience!He threw the diary on the table, turned around and walked out.
Pang Mei chased after him: “Hey, hey, what are you in a hurry for? I told you there are security guards…”
Lian Shuhuai was not happy: “What’s wrong with the security guards? We also have security guards in our school. You haven’t seen them?”
He recalled the floor guide. The teacher’s office should be on the west side of the third floor. He turned out of the classroom and walked up the stairs. Suddenly he heard a clear sound like a ball falling to the ground from the corridor. He immediately huddled behind the wall and carefully observed with his peripheral vision.
In the empty corridor of the school building, the setting sun cast a slanting shadow through the window, and sure enough, there was something in the shape of a ball.
A head wearing a security hat fell down in the corridor, flew up, and wandered around.
Just the head.
“Does the security guard in our school also look like this?” Pang Mei’s confused voice came from behind.
Lian Shuhuai was too lazy to argue with him: “You, try to distract its attention, and I will take the opportunity to go to the teacher’s office to look for something – what is that thing?”
“A compass.”
“Which normal person would bring a compass to school?” Lian Shuhuai complained.
“I heard that it is used to play Bixian. Have you never played it? Jiang Lingyi told me that it was one of the most popular games when he was in school.”
Of course, Lian Shuhuai had never played with it. He had always used disdain to cover up his fear of these supernatural things. Now that Pang Mei asked him this, he had to pretend to be disapproving and well-informed: “What an old-fashioned thing, no one has played with it now.”
“How do I draw its attention?”
Lian Shuhuai pondered for a moment: “I’ll go downstairs first and go up the stairs on the west side of the second floor. You stand here to attract its attention and lead him here. I will have a chance to enter the teacher’s office on the west side of the third floor. When the time comes, I will use the intercom to contact you. You should be optimistic about the opportunity.”
Second Young Master Lian was extremely complacent, feeling that his battle plan was flawless and that he was an unparalleled strategic genius. In comparison, the guy next to him was just a fool who lacked common sense, so he repeatedly confirmed to Pang Mei: “Do you understand? Don’t hold me back then.”
“Oh.” Pang Mei agreed honestly.
Lian Shuhuai turned around and walked down the stairs, taking a detour to the other side.Pang Mei appeared from behind the wall. The flying head immediately noticed him and floated slowly towards this side. Pang Mei strolled leisurely and faced him. The setting sun was bleak. The eyes of the head and Pang Mei looked at each other horizontally. The distance between them was less than half a meter. As if something was about to happen, the two of them were silent for a few seconds.
“Oh! Xiaomei, I’m here to play with my classmates today!”
“Feitou Man, long time no see! You are still in good spirits. How is your body?”
“Go and sleep in a deserted corner.”
“It’s really hard to work for the first time, haha!”
“At least most of the body is resting, so it’s not as hard as your school work~~”
Like the aunt next door who met at the market, Pang Mei and Feitou started to make a homely meal in a familiar manner.
Lian Shuhuai went up from the west side of the second floor to the west side of the third floor. At the entrance of the stairs, he saw Pang Mei and the security guard interacting with each other. He was secretly relieved. In fact, he was worried that Pang Mei would also apply to quit like the fat man and the thin man. Now that he saw him risking his life to take on the assigned tasks, he couldn’t help but feel a little grateful in his heart.While their backs were facing him, he quickly opened a small crack in the teacher’s office door and stepped in.
… He just seemed to see that the expression on Pang Mei’s face was not one of fear, but a very cheerful smile. It should be an illusion caused by the flying features.Well, that must be the case.
Lian Shuhuai walked past the desks and found the workstation where the homework books of Class 1 were stacked. He started to rummage through the cabinets and found a round disc with engraved words and a pointer in the bottom drawer. It should be a compass used to play Bixian.There was also a daily work report spread out on the table, and Lian Shuhuai couldn’t help but pick it up and flip through it.
【X month X day
A and B engaged in feudal superstitious activities in the open space behind the teaching building at noon. After being reported by their classmates, their belongings were confiscated: a compass, five candles, a writing brush, four packages of cinnabar, a bundle of red thread, and C’s ■■
School sanction: demerit, warning
Note: C’s ■■ needs to be kept properly, remember to take it to the chemistry laboratory and let the teacher handle it]
This record reminds them of several places they can investigate next. What exactly is Mr. C’s ■■?It seems that the Bixian game still lacks some materials?The open space behind the teaching building and the chemical laboratory should be the next places to investigate.Lian Shuhuai quickly connected all kinds of information and decided on the next move. He was even a little proud. This kind of puzzle-solving that did not require the use of IQ was quite simple.
“What an immersive horror chamber, nothing more than that!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew behind his ears, and a hand was put on Lian Shuhuai’s shoulder from behind.
“Student, please don’t take the teacher’s things.”
