Chapter 154 'Children's Paradise' If the mystery is...
The moment the lights in the entire house went dark, the originally silent fireplace behind Jiang Qian suddenly burst into flames!
It is almost seamlessly connected with the lighting.
"Careful!"
The night dragonfly that ran to the guardrail on the second floor shouted a urgent reminder.
When Jiang Qian looked sideways, the jumping flames suddenly surged and spurted out from the fireplace mouth to meet his gaze!
At that moment, the swan quickly spread its wings, lifted Jiang Qian up and dodged the scalding heat wave with its superb flying skills.
The two landed on the second floor in the swaying light of the fire, and met with a night dragonfly, a wildfire, and a towering pine.
Several people naturally took precautions in all directions.
Jiang Qian looked back at the burning fireplace, which had become the only source of light in the house.
The swaying firelight illuminates the huge photo of the two people, lengthening the light and shadow, forming a weird and terrifying visual effect.
"If I had just entered inside, I would have been burned to death or smoked to death." Honghu Yufei's sigh came from my ears.
Jiang Qian was about to tell the other party that there was a vent in the attic.
On the other side of the stairs, a harsh explosion caused the stairs to tremble violently!
In the unclear darkness, human figures intersected with lightning, followed by screams from nearby rooms.
Except for the firelight downstairs, the surrounding visibility was extremely low, and even Jiang Qian's spiritual vision was disturbed.
He quickly took out his mysterious glasses and put them on, but the effect was not improved.
The cunning here is not something that my "Devouring Cunning" can solve, that is to say, they are not mental pollution, they may even exist only in this copy of the independent system. To solve the "cunning" here, you must press here
Here are the rules... Jiang Qian thought about it in his heart.
"What should we do next?" Night Dragonfly's voice asked urgently.
In addition to Jiang Qian, Night Dragonfly, who owns the "Dragonfly" card, also has outstanding visual ability. Therefore, when his vision is seriously disturbed, he is inevitably more anxious than others.
"Is there another room on the second floor that I haven't searched?" Jiang Qian answered the question.
"There is another one, a chess and card gym!" Yehuo Liaobubuqu replied quickly.
So Jiang Qian took out the "Do Not Disturb" sign and quickly decided: "Let's go to the chess and card gym!"
He was holding a treasure weapon and his voice was steady and sure, which invisibly stabilized the morale of the soldiers, making them stay highly alert in the dark instead of retreating in panic.
During this period, Wildfire and a towering pine each took out a prop "torch" and used super-species power as fuel to light an open flame to dispel the darkness on the road ahead.
With this light, several people successfully felt the chess and card gym.
When the door was closed and the sign was put up, Jiang Qian saw from Momohuhudi in his spiritual vision that the man who had been following Lin Zhuo was covered in blood, staggering out of the corridor on the other side of the second floor and climbing over the second floor.
Guardrail, jump down!
At the same time, the flames in the fireplace flickered again!
The flames wrapped around the man who fell to the ground, like a giant beast devouring the prey in front of him. In an instant, the figure was annihilated in the fire...
Jiang Qian leaned against the door of the chess and card gym and covered his sore eyes.
A new discovery: In this so-called "dark night environment", using visual power will quickly increase the physical load...
"How's it going? Are you okay?"
"It's okay, one of the three is dead." Jiang Qian synchronized what he saw to his teammates.
Several other people looked at each other.
"It seems that they were attacked by the guile first...so the explosion just now was the talisman for suppressing the guile?" Honghu Yufei frowned.
"It's hard to say." Jiang Qian shook his head.
Taking advantage of this time, he quickly sorted out the current situation:
"There are two ways to win this hide-and-seek game: one is to avoid the trap and hide until dawn, the other is to find the key room and use the 'switch to turn off the trap."
"Whether we are avoiding the trick or starting to turn off the trick, we must figure out what the trick is here, what secrets are hidden, and work backwards accordingly
Attack method."
According to the original action plan, Jiang Qian peeled off the cocoon and said:
"Currently, it appears that there are three deceased persons in this house, two of whom were residents of this house, each of whom died of poisoning; and an older man died of suffocation, and their bodies were found in the fireplace." "As you can see, the fireplace will actively attack players when night falls, and the attack method is flames. The player who just fell down from the stairs will be engulfed by the flames, and may have entered the attack range of the fireplace."
After hearing this, the eyes of several people gradually became clear.
Night Dragonfly suddenly realized: "So, the trick here is alluding to the fireplace! And the trick's attack method is fire?"
"If it's that simple, we just need to stay away from the fireplace. This is easy to observe and easy to do." Honghu Yufei doesn't quite agree with this inference.
Jiang Qian followed what the two of them said:
"Yes, there is a problem with the fireplace. But it would be too simple to interpret it as a trick. The trick's attack method is definitely not so rigid."
"Because, normally speaking, most players will choose to hide when night falls and will not wander around downstairs at all. The chance of being swallowed by the fireplace is very slim."
"Let's just say, it's impossible for us to pass the dungeon so easily." Honghu Yufei said with a bitter smile.
Night Dragonfly looked at Jiang Qian again: "Could it be that the mystery is related to the three dead people?"
Jiang Qian nodded: "I think so."
He gave his own reasoning:
"Judging from the clues we have collected so far, there are many information gaps in this house: between people, between the owner and the employees."
"Information gaps cause misunderstandings and create blind spots, and blind spots are the components of the mystery."
"One thing, our opponents are right. The focus of this hide-and-seek game is not 'catch' and 'hide', but 'confusion.' I think that as long as the relationship between the people in the room is clear, all the difficulties will be solved."
Solved easily."
Speaking of this, Jiang Qian looked at Honghu Yufei and Night Dragonfly:
"Based on the current relationship between the characters, two of the three deceased can be identified as the owners of the house, that is, the people in the group photo above the fireplace."

"So, who is the other deceased older man? So far, we only know that he was 49 years old, suffered from high paraplegia, and his physical condition was already very poor before his death."…
"Also, Teacher Ye found signs of living in the second bedroom, and she was suspected to be a woman. We also found signs of the use of daily necessities in many places in the house. What is the relationship between this mysterious woman and the owner of the house? Why is she in the house?
Will you live here after death?"
"And when we were looking for clues, who adjusted the clock in the living room, causing us to estimate the wrong time and almost get caught when we stayed downstairs?"
He raised a series of questions to guide everyone to continue the key clues in the correct way.
Fortunately, several people listened carefully and fully trusted Jiang Qian's reasoning.
Finally, Jiang Qian pointed to the door of the chess and card fitness room behind him:
"The do not disturb door sign may help us resist the temporary intrusion, but I don't think it will last long. It is impossible to spend the night here peacefully. We must speed up."
As he spoke, Jiang Qian's expression became serious:
"If nothing goes wrong, players will soon be in trouble one after another..."
……
In the baby room on the other side of the second floor.
Several players are hiding in different corners of the house:
Some are under the bed, some are behind the curtains, some are hiding in cupboards, some are hiding among toys...
The cute long-haired girl hugged a fat female gamer, hiding behind a luxurious stroller and shivering.
"Don't be afraid!"
The slightly chubby female player seemed to have experience in such horror stories. She whispered to comfort the long-haired girl huddled on her shoulder:
"Don't worry, Gui
There are rules for everything. As long as you understand the strange rules, you can avoid being killed."
"I've seen your props, and there's no problem. Since the Do Not Disturb door sign can effectively prevent the entry of sneaky people, you won't be attacked if you stay in this room."
As she spoke, she patted the long-haired girl on the shoulder to express comfort.
The long-haired girl tightened her shoulders delicately.
She raised her head pitifully, walked close to the fat girl and whispered:
"Then, what if the ghost is in the room?"
……
"Ahhh——"
Jiang Qian and others who were rummaging through the chess and card gym couldn't help but stop when they heard the screams.
This scream obviously came from the direction of the baby's room.
Honghu Yufei, who was closest to the door, stopped and put his ear close to the door to listen - it was absolutely impossible to open the door at this stall.
The wild fire in the house was still burning, but he slowly stood up and said with a stunned expression:
