Chapter 386: Secret Escape Room

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Feng Jing looked around and repeated the requirement to clear the level in a low voice. “The background of the story is a serial murder case. We are now at a few crime scenes. We have to find the victim’s body and the clues left behind by the murderer in order to clear this level.”

“Babe, your boyfriend looks very professional. Could he really be an actor?” The buzz cut boy was obviously still suspicious of Yin Tao and Feng Jing’s identities.

For some reason, he felt that the gloomy atmosphere in the secret room was inexplicably harmonious with the aura of the two people in front of him.

The girl who had been holding onto his arm became much more vigilant when she heard his words. She kept secretly sizing up Yin Tao and Feng Jing from the corner of her eye.

Yin Tao was just about to explain that she and Feng Jing weren’t a couple when she saw Feng Jing, who was still checking out the surroundings, walk back to her side. He deliberately lowered his voice and said to the nervous boy with a buzz cut, “Even if we are actors, we can’t tell you the truth. Whether you can walk out depends on your own ability.”

Feng Jing did not make any unnecessary movements, but it frightened the boy with the buzz cut so much that he took a few steps back. “Brother, take your time to find the clues. We’ll take our leave first.”

After the boy finished speaking, he pulled his girlfriend along and ran away from Yin Tao and Feng Jing.

“Why are you scaring them?” Yin Tao didn’t expect Feng Jing to joke like this, scaring the two students so much that they ran away.

“He’s too noisy, and stupid. It’s useless even if he follows us.” Feng Jing summarized the reasons very calmly. Looking at the simple tools around him, he said to Yin Tao, “Let’s go. We should leave quickly.”

The dim environment coupled with the sinister background music was indeed a terrifying atmosphere. However, it was still somewhat relaxing for Feng Jing and Yin Tao.

“How did those two disappear so quickly?” Yin Tao was a little puzzled that the timid-looking couple could walk so quickly.

“It should be to hide from us. The space here is quite big.” Feng Jing walked beside Yin Tao. As he was not familiar with the secret room game, Feng Jing was very careful. He was afraid that something would suddenly appear under his feet and knock Yin Tao down.

“This room should be the first crime scene.” Yin Tao pushed open the door to the first room she came to in the corridor. She didn’t know if the staff had deliberately sprayed something, but the entire room smelled damp and musty.

“This is a dormitory?” Yin Tao looked at the bunk beds in the room and felt that the setting in front of her should be a dormitory.

“It should be a student dormitory. There’s a student number and name pasted here.” Under the dim light, Feng Jing pointed at a note stuck to the side of an iron bed.

“Then the first victim should be a student?” Yin Tao looked at the obviously messy bed and felt that there should be some clues left in the room.

“It’s also possible that the murderer is a student.” Feng Jing turned on the flashlight on his cell phone and shone it carefully at the corners of the dormitory. “This doesn’t look like a crime scene. There’s no blood at all, and there are no signs of a fight.”

Yin Tao didn’t expect Feng Jing to be so meticulous even when playing a game. Yin Tao gradually calmed down and carefully flipped through the items in the room. Indeed, this looked like an ordinary student dormitory, but the hygiene standards was a little poor.

“There should be two people living here. The third bed is empty. From the type of items, we can tell that these two are boys. Let’s continue to check the other rooms. We are unlikely to be able to find the victim’s body here.”

Yin Tao roughly memorized their personal belongings and walked out of the room with Feng Jing.

The two of them arrived at another scene. Unlike the first room, it was obvious from the layout of this scene that something major had happened here.

“Is this paint?” Yin Tao looked at the large area of red liquid on the wall and sniffed it curiously.

“It’s supposed to be used to fake blood.”

Hearing Feng Jing’s words, Yin Tao’s interest was instantly reduced by more than half. “This is too fake. Even if an artery was slashed, there wouldn’t have been so much blood, right?”

“You can’t possibly expect the boss to really kill someone here, right?” Feng Jing looked at Yin Tao’s disappointed expression and couldn’t help but smile. “This should be the scene where the murderer dealt with the corpse.”

Feng Jing pointed at an iron table in the room. There were some knives on it..
