The number of clues found so far in the study is the most among all rooms.
The invitation had the names of the people invited to the Christmas Eve party, and the murderer was probably among these people.
In addition, I also found a Christmas gift box that the male host gave to his wife, as well as the hostess's performance schedule. I used the locations on the schedule to correspond to the longitude and latitude of the globe, unlocked the gift box, and saw the Christmas card written by the male host.
However, the study door still didn't open.
Xiao Lou looked around, looked at the bookcases on one wall, and said, "There should be some clues that we have missed. Everyone, hurry up, look at one row of bookcases each, and go through the bookcases as soon as possible."
The desk and drawers have been carefully searched, and no other clues can be found. Only the bookcases on one wall have not been carefully examined.
Qu Wanyue checked the cabinet on the far left and saw many professional works on music.
On the far right side of Lao Mocha, he saw some professional books on architecture. He quickly flipped through these books and said to Xiao Lou, "The male host, Wells, is an architectural designer. He opened a design company. There is a book in this book.
An introduction to his company."
Xiao Lou took it and put the clue into his pocket and kept it away.
Judging from the introduction, the architectural design company opened by Wells is quite large, and the income must be considerable. Coupled with the money earned by his wife from performing around the world, this family can afford to buy a five-story single-family villa. It is obviously a wealthy family, so,
The possibility of a servant killing his master for money cannot be completely ruled out.
Long Sen rummaged through the bookcase in the middle and said, "There are a lot of CD boxes here, Xiaoye, come and take a look."
Ye Qi walked up quickly, took a closer look, and immediately said, "These are high-quality CDs of Richard Clayderman's piano music. It seems that the hostess Shirley is Richard Clayderman."
Big fan of Deman.”
Richard Clayderman, a world-renowned piano master, was born in France. He has many piano masterpieces that are world-famous. Several CDs that appear on the bookcase are very famous singles. Ye Qi said, "These five CDs,
They are "Destiny", "Starry Sky", "Autumn Whispers", "Dream Wedding" and "Argentina, Don't Cry for Me"."
Ye Qi took the box of five CDs and handed them to Xiao Lou, "Are these CDs related to the password of the room?"
The tape recorder I just found in the piano room can only play tapes and cannot play these CDs. Obviously, this room is not a voice-activated mechanism for unlocking CDs. The meaning of these CD singles is whether they are case reminders or password reminders.
?
Xiao Lou lowered his head and thought for a moment, then opened all the CD boxes, and then he was surprised to find——
Four of the CD boxes were empty and seemed to have been taken away by the hostess. Only the box of "Argentina, Don't Cry for Me" contained a brand new CD. The picture on the front of the disc was printed
It is Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina.
When the teammates saw this, they looked at each other.
There is only one CD in the CD case, and there is a thumbnail of the capital city printed on the CD. What does this mean?
Xiao Lou reacted immediately and said, "Liu Qiao, check the longitude and latitude of Argentina's capital Buenos Aires on the globe."
After hearing this, Liu Qiao hurriedly rotated the globe, found the capital of Argentina, and reported the result: "34 degrees south latitude, 58 degrees west longitude."
Xiao Lou walked to the bookcase on one wall.
Up north, down south, left west, right east. If the longitude and latitude correspond to the coordinates of the bookcase, then the coordinates of this book are 58 books from the left (west) and 34 books from the bottom (south).
The bookcase only has four floors, and it is impossible to store 34 floors of books from the bottom up. However, Xiao Lou discovered that after aligning the longitude coordinate of 58, the books in this row happened to be stacked horizontally.
When stacked flat, nearly 20 books can be placed on each layer.
Xiao Lou counted 34 books from bottom to top according to the coordinates of 34 degrees south latitude, and finally locked the cross coordinates corresponding to the longitude and latitude.
This is a world famous book.
--"lover".
The moment Xiao Lou took out the book, the bookcase in front of him suddenly made a "rumbling" sound. Then, the bookcase quickly rotated 90 degrees, opening a long and narrow passage in front of everyone!
The teammates looked at each other.
Everyone is still wondering what Argentina means. It turns out that the longitude and latitude of the globe correspond to the horizontal and vertical coordinates of the bookcase. After pulling out a key book, the bookcase will automatically rotate to open the passage - this is a pull-out mechanism!
Fortunately, Xiao Lou reacted quickly enough, otherwise everyone would have been trapped in this secret room for more than ten minutes.
At this time, the countdown had reached 30 minutes, and half of the time had been used up. They successively solved the little girl's dream, the little girl's bedroom, the hostess's piano room, and the male host's study, and found two bodies.
, the speed is already fast enough.
But as the mechanism became more and more difficult, Xiao Lou also felt a little nervous.
The body of the male host has not been found, and the murderer has no clue. He held a lot of clues that he had collected before, and he quickly organized his thoughts as he walked.
After the bookcase rotates, there is a staircase, which can only be walked up.
Everyone walked up the stairs. As Xiao Lou walked, he simply said, "The famous book "The Lover" tells the love story of a poor French girl and a wealthy Chinese man. The two love each other, but due to religious reasons
Differences in beliefs and national culture failed to come together in the end. The heroine could not overcome the racial differences, returned to Paris to settle down, and married a white man; the male protagonist followed the traditional Chinese marriage and had to obey the orders of his parents, listen to his parents' words, and marry a white man who had never been married.
The Chinese girl they met got married. Many years later, the hero brought his wife to Paris and called the heroine. He said that he loved the heroine as deeply as before and would love her forever until his death. "
Many people have not read this famous book, and Xiao Lou happened to have read it. Even if he has not read it, the name of this book is very obvious. Yu Hanjiang frowned and said, "It seems that this is a murder case of love? There are several clues in a row.
It’s all about feelings.”
Whether it is the piano piece "Dream Wedding" or the "Lover" that unlocks the bookcase, the story told is a tragedy of love.
It is impossible for such coincidences to occur continuously.
Yu Hanjiang said, "The current suspicious characters include five friends who were invited to the house on Christmas Eve, as well as the little girl's personal doctor, nanny, and driver. The motive for the crime is love murder. It is very likely that they targeted the hero or heroine.
Unable to love her, her psychology gradually became abnormal, so she simply looked for an opportunity to kill the family."
Just now, Xiao Lou thought that the servant might have killed someone for money, but the continuous "love story" clues made him deny his speculation. Yu Hanjiang's analysis was more reasonable. In this case, the possibility of love murder would be greater.
At this moment, everyone walked down the stairs to the first floor.
There are two rooms on this floor, with a door on the left and right. Xiao Lou said, "There is not much time, let's split up. Four people go into a room in groups, otherwise the remaining 30 minutes may not be enough."
The secret room is limited to 1 hour and is the most difficult.
In a real-life escape room game, if there are so many rooms, it would give players at least 5 hours!
Yu Hanjiang coughed lightly and said, "Group...do you think it's feasible?"
Xiao Lou looked at him and said, "Let's open the telepathic channel. If we can't solve the puzzle, we can discuss it."
Only then did Yu Hanjiang feel relieved. Since Xiao Lou was "off the court for help", he didn't have to worry about the agency no matter how difficult it was.
Xiao Lou summoned Qin Guan and established a telepathic channel with Yu Hanjiang.
Yu Hanjiang made a quick decision, "Liu Qiao, Xiaoye, Mr. Shao, follow me to the room on the left."
Xiao Lou said, "The remaining three of you can go to the right with me and keep in touch at all times."
Eight people entered two rooms in groups and continued to collect clues——
In the room on the left, after Yu Hanjiang led his teammates into the door, they found that it was a dollhouse full of childlike interest, which obviously belonged to the little girl Lucia.
The room was filled with all kinds of rag dolls. The walls were painted colorfully with her paintbrush, including blue sky, white clouds, green trees, and various cartoon cows, sheep, and rabbits. This large room was messed up by Lucia, and the walls were messy.
It was almost ruined by her. The couple obviously doted on their only daughter and reserved such a large room for her to DIY graffiti.
Yu Hanjiang looked at the toys in the room and felt a splitting headache.
Xiao Lou noticed his thoughts and said through the telepathic channel, "Look to see if there are any patterns in these dolls."
Yu Hanjiang said, "These dolls are too messy. Let's sort them out first."
Ye Qi and Liu Qiao immediately split up to look for the rules, while Shao Qingge stood in the middle of the room, carefully studying the wall painted by the little girl.
Yu Hanjiang stood in the corner and asked Xiao Lou through the telepathic channel, "What's the situation over there?"
Xiao Lou said, "It's the hostess's cloakroom, with many clothes, bags, and shoes."
The cloakroom is dozens of square meters and is extremely luxuriously decorated.
The wardrobe on three walls is filled with all kinds of beautiful skirts, as well as many dresses for performances; one wall is made into a shoe cabinet with countless high-heeled shoes and flat shoes; there are many drawers on the counter in the middle, which is a place dedicated to storing exquisite jewelry.
.
Xiao Lou asked each of his three teammates to search one wall of the wardrobe, focusing on the pockets of the clothes, while he searched for the jewelry table in the middle.
The drawer at the bottom of the jewelry table is locked and has a four-digit password on it.
In escape room games, anything with a lock must have important clues.
Xiao Lou asked his teammates to quickly search the wardrobe.
When Long Sen and Lao Mo saw some clothes, they felt they had no idea what to do with them. Qu Wanyue was the most efficient. She quickly found an old wallet from the inner pocket of a coat, which contained a group photo.
In the group photo are several young men and women, including the heroine Shirley and her husband Wells, as well as two other men and three women.
Seven people stood in a row and laughed happily. Just by looking at the smiles, there was no special relationship.
Qu Wanyue took it over and said, "The seven people in the photo are all wearing university graduation uniforms. They should be classmates. The other five, exactly two men and three women, could they be the five people invited to the Christmas Eve party?"
Xiao Lou said, "It's possible."
He turned the photo over, and there was a row of numbers written on the back——
The graduating class of 1998 took a group photo on June 7.
The combination lock on the drawer is exactly four digits. Could it be 9867?
Xiao Lou thought for a while and realized that it would not be so simple to just write out the password. He entered 9867. If he entered it wrong, he didn't know what the punishment for this room would be...
Xiao Lou was silent for two seconds. In escape room games, passwords are rarely written directly. The numbers behind the photo are likely to be interference items. He gave up the simple attempt of 9867 and looked at the jewelry table carefully.
The jewelry table is arranged very regularly.
On the left side hang 5 gemstone necklaces from short to long, in the middle area are 8 pairs of earrings, and on the right side are 7 bracelets.
8 pairs of earrings can be understood as the number 16.
The arrangement pattern of these jewelry may be the password for the bottom row of jewelry drawers.
The four-digit password is 5167 from left to right and 7165 from right to left? Or is it neither?
At the same time, Ye Qi and Liu Qiao also found a pattern in the children's room next door.
The two sorted all the dolls in the room.
Ye Qi was so tired that he was sweating profusely. He pointed at the classified dolls at his feet and said, "There are 5 Mickey Mouses, 6 Little Bears, 7 Snow White Barbie dolls in different colors, and 3 big turtles.
8 stuffed bunnies of different sizes.”
Liu Qiao said, "There is a cabinet here. There is a combination lock on the cabinet. It is a five-digit password."
There was nothing else in the room. Shao Qingge said thoughtfully, "It seems that the numbers after classifying these dolls are the passwords of the cabinets. The key lies in the order."
5,6,7,3,8, how to arrange them in order?
If the five numbers are randomly arranged, there will be many possibilities. If you enter the wrong number, you will be buried by the doll again... Several adults do not want to experience such a punishment session again.
The house full of dolls has been sorted out. There must be clues in the house about how to arrange them in order.
Yu Hanjiang looked at the colorful graffiti on the wall and asked, "What do these paintings on the wall mean?"
Shao Qingge said with a headache, "I can't understand these things drawn by children."
Ye Qi pointed to the crooked graffiti on the left wall and said, "This wall seems to be a story about the tortoise and the hare. If we follow this story, the tortoise defeated the hare and should be ranked in front of the hare. But there is no rice on the wall."
Rats, bears and other animals.”
Liu Qiao looked at a big tree graffitied on the wall, with a line of words written next to it. She whispered, "The lifespan of trees is much longer than that of humans. It would be great if it could become a tree. Just bask in the sun every day."
Eat enough."
So...what is the password to this children's graffiti room?
