TISHW 119ii




 "There is a key to the ancestral hall and the layout of the Chen’s house. I hope it can help you."

She took out a key and a folded blueprint from the box. When she opened the blueprint, it was the layout of the Chen Family's property with one of the rooms highlighted.

Jian Cang took a look and said, "It seems we are going here."

After confirming the destination, Ye Yuanyu went to open the door of the ancestral hall. Although the ancestral hall was locked from the outside, the door did not close tightly and was locked with an iron chain. A girl's hand could just reach out and pull the lock in.

After coming out of the ancestral hall, the group walked to the front yard together. The room marked on the layout plan was in the guest yard.

After walking several minutes, they arrived at the Chen Family's guest yard. The yard was not big, but there were six rooms. The house was completely dilapidated and the window paper was gone. It felt like it would be a ready-made background for a ghost movie after adding a netherworld filter.

They took a general look at the situation in the room through the window.

"It seems to be a staff dormitory?" Jian Cang said.

"It should be a better staff dormitory," Xiang Chen added, "They are all single rooms."

Ye Yuanyu looked at the layout map and said, "We’ll enter the room at the far end."

The group's eyes fell on that room. It had a wooden door with a lock and no password, which meant that they needed to look for a key.

The six people were searched around. Jian Cang quickly noticed one thing, "The threshold of this door was missing."

Looking at the wide gap under the door, Xiang Chen asked, "When we didn't have password locks when we were children, where would the keys in our house be hidden?"

Shu Hua said, "Above the door, under the flower pot on the window sill, or if there is a gap in the door, inside the door gap..."

Following her words, the six of them stared at the wide crack in the door and stopped moving.

  【Huh? What happened to them? No one is coming forward? 】

  【Did I miss any clues? Why do they look a little scared? 】

Soon, the audience knew why.

Ye Yuanyu baited Shu Hua, "Since you have thought of it, go and get it. This is your highlight moment."

Shu Hua didn't want to take the bait, "You go ahead. I'll give you this highlight."

Jian Cang reminded everyone, "High spec ahead! Please pay attention."

The audience caught on:

  【Hahahaha, I understand. It turns out they are afraid of ghosts. 】

  【Yes, this issue has a horror theme. Almost every link has a horror effect. 】

  【Imagine looking down at the crack in the door and a pair of blood-red eyes suddenly appear staring at you...]

【Damn it! My hair is already standing up. Please don’t turn the barrage into a horror zone. I just like to see others scared. 】

Obviously everyone had this mentality. None of the six people present wanted to experience the high spec. Ye Yuanyu suggested, "Old rules, rock, paper, scissors, the loser gets it."

Jiang Yu:……

Xiang Chen noticed her expression and grinned, "What? You are unlucky to the point of losing in guessing fist?"

Jiang Yu said nothing. Yes, she was that unlucky.

"Really?" Ye Yuanyu looked curious, "I don't believe it. Let's see."

Jiang Yu glanced at him, thought for a while, and said, "I can be responsible for confirming whether the key is inside the door and if it is, where it is. But another person needs to be responsible for taking the key."

【Translation, I need another person to support me. 】

  【Hahaha, what sarcasm. 】

Jian Cang heard this and said cautiously, "Why suddenly come up with this proposal? It can’t be that you’re brewing another conspiracy?"

Jiang Yu looked at him innocently, "I'm just worried that I won't be able to get it by myself. I'll look at the position and let the other person cooperate. It will be more efficient." 

She looked at them, "You are sure to watch me get it by myself?"

Her eyes were clear and bright. On top of that, what she said was factual and reasonable. However, her tone was soft and sweet, which gave people the illusion that she was acting cute. The same kind of unconsciously cute act of a sweet girl.

The audience who were spectating the fun began to object:

【Of course not! 】

【My Elder Sister Yu is so sweet. How can you bear to? Hurry up and accompany her! 】

【If you can't do it, let me. 】

Xiang Chen seemed to be the first to be unable to resist and smiled fondly, "Okay, you check the position, I will cooperate with you to get it. There’s no need to guess the fist."

Qin Shiyu narrowed his eyes and interjected, "Based on the principle of fairness and justice, let’s play fist guessing. In the end, one of the two losers will look at the position, while the other will cooperate to get the key."

【It's really strange. There is a time when they are fair and just. 】

【Hahahaha, I can never guess their direction. Someone voluntarily take the risks and they still want to be fair and just. 】

【I suddenly thought of a question. What if the key isn’t inside the door? It seems like no one took a peek, right? Why are they already so sure? 】

【You have to be lucky that their brain circuits are weird and they get disconnected for no apparent reason from time to time. Otherwise, just watching the problem solving, the program would probably be recorded in less than an hour. 】

【Increase the duration in weird places, hahahaha. 】

【En, perfect time to witness Elder Sister Yu’s unluckiness. I don’t recall ever witnessing her guessing fist yet. 】

Soon, their horizons were broadened.

As Jiang Yu was the first to lose decisively and neatly, the expressions of the group and the audience became strange.

【……】

【...I always thought that Jiang Yu was just saying that she is unlucky, but I didn't expect that she really had some metaphysics aspects on her. 】

【I even saw her trying to observe other people's showing fist habits and trying to win. 】

【Elder Sister Yu who tried hard to defeat metaphysics with science is really moving. Although it is useless, I saw her spirit of not admitting defeat. 】

  【Ha ha ha ha……】

When there were three people left to guess the game together, Xiang Chen looked at his own paper and Jiang Yu's rock opposite him, and smiled helplessly, "Didn't I tell you that I was going to make a cloth?"

Jiang Yu said, "I thought you were fooling me."

Xiang Chen was helpless, "I am willing to cooperate with you to get the key, why would I fool you?"

Like Jiang Yu, Qin Shiyu also had a rock and drawled out, "What if you are just confusing us?"

Xiang Chen was speechless, "I'm not you. How can I be scheming?"

Ye Yuanyu, Shu Hua and Jian Cang said in unison, "How are you not?"

Xiang Chen:......

【Hahahahaha, the main theme is mutual distrust. 】

【It’s so funny. None of the six people is a good person. 】

【But what happened to God Yu? He has never lost in guessing? 】

【Remembering the guessing fist last season. Everyone who played was scared when they saw him. Jiang Mingquan said that he studied psychology, understood micro-expressions, and can tell what was going on in others. 】

【I really got goosebumps when I watched it. Later, Jiang Mingquan put a paper bag on his own head and still couldn't win against him. It's really scary. 】

【So you lost this time because you purposely wanted to accompany Jiang Yu, right? 】

【Waaaaaaaaaaaa, so doting... 】

Jiang Yu was a little confused as to why Qin Shiyu stayed. When she was catching up on variety shows, she had watched Qin Shiyu’s fist guessing.

Not commenting,Qin Shiyu stated, "Are we still going to guess?"

Jiang Yu had a self-aware expression, "I'll go see where the key is. You can get it."

As she spoke, she walked toward the room. The group followed her, all looking like they were facing an enemy.

Jian Cang guessed, "It couldn’t be eyeballs suddenly rolling out, right?."

Shu Hua stamped her feet, "Don't scare people!"

Ye Yuanyu glanced at her, "When Jiang Yu lies down to take a look, a hand will suddenly stretch out and pull the person wearing pink shoes."

Shu Hua was wearing a pair of pink shoes today. She unconsciously raised her feet when she heard this. Ye Yuanyu suddenly roared "Waa" next to her. Shu Hua and Jian Cang shouted and jumped almost at the same time. Jiang Yu and the others also jumped from fright.

Shu Hua came to her senses and was so angry that she caught Ye Yuanyu and beat him twice. When she looked at Jiang Yu, she was very scared, "Bigshot, be careful. How about we find a stick and pull it out blindly? Maybe it will be pulled out."

Jian Cang said, "You can't let Elder Sister Yu go. With her luck, she might just push the key further in. It's very possible that a small skull will be pulled out."

【...These people are really capable of creating a terrifying atmosphere themselves. 】

【ROFL, initially, I wasn’t scared. But they themselves made me scared. 】

"Quiet!" Jiang Yu slowly squatted down at the door of the room with a serious look on her face, "Don't move."

Everyone immediately fell silent and couldn't help but hold their breath and watched her.

She slowly bent down and suddenly took out a small mirror from her pocket and placed it next to the crack in the door. She looked through the mirror into the crack in the door.

Everyone:...

Shu Hua recognized it immediately, "Isn't that the mirror that reflected infrared rays in our first level? Where did you get it from?"

Jiang Yu replied while observing the mirror, "En, I accidentally grabbed it when falling and pulled it down together."

Jian Cang jumped up, "I was saying she must have a back-up plan!"

"So now the most terrifying task falls on the person who gets the key?"

Jiang Yu had already seen the key through the mirror, and saw the scary big spider next to the key. She raised her head and said obediently to Qin Shiyu next to her, "Do you believe me?"

Ye Yuanyu, Jian Cang and Shu Hua uttered in unison, "I don't think so."

However, Qin Shiyu chuckled lightly and said, "Believe."

Jiang Yu:……

He can not believe her. But now he said he did, it made her feel embarrassed to torment him.
