Chapter 646: Escape Room (4)
Back then, she faintly heard them talking about what a freak she was.
At that time, Jian Yiling did not know what she had done wrong.
They told her that they were playing a game. And thus, she had played according to the rules.
Only later did Jian Yiling understand that she had probably done something wrong.
Zhai Yunsheng looked at the silent crowd with cold eyes. He was just about to speak when Jian Yiling promised Yao Moping:
“Okay, you guys play then.”
Then, Jian Yiling stepped to the side and stopped participating in solving the puzzles.
Most people did not feel like this was the right thing to do. However, because of Yao Moping, they did not end up saying anything.
After a moment, Jian Yiling asked Zhai Yunsheng in a small voice: “Did I mess up?”
“You didn’t,” Zhai Yunsheng replied. “You’re playing by the rules.”
She just didn’t understand the ways of the world. However, she didn’t need to understand.
“Sometimes, they say that you shouldn’t play exactly by the rules,” Jian Yiling said quietly.
“Ignore those people. It’s not possible for people to think the same way. You don’t have to care about what they say.”
Zhai Yunsheng said as he gently held Jian Yiling’s hand.
Then, Zhai Yunsheng looked at Yao Moping with cold eyes.
As Jian Yiling was no longer involved in the escape room, the group’s progress slowed down by a lot.
Everyone wandered around the room for quite some time. However, they could not figure out the correct answer for the next puzzle.
“Han Mengyu, where’s the pager? Let’s ask the owner to give us some hints!”
They could not find the answer by themselves. As a result, they had to seek help.
But at this time, they were too embarrassed to ask Jian Yiling for help. Therefore, they could only ask the store owner for help.
However, when Han Mengyu took out the pager, he realized that the pager was malfunctioning.
“No way? It’s not working at this time? Ahhh, what’s wrong with the store owner? Can’t he check these things regularly?”
Everyone confirmed that the pager was indeed broken.
“So what now?” Xing Wei asked anxiously.
If the pager was broken, then how could the store owner help them?
If they did not get hints, how could they leave this place?
“Who has a phone on them? Make a call to the store owner,” Yao Moping suggested.
“There’s no signal in here. If we had signal in here, the store owner would not give us a pager,” Han Mengyu replied. He immediately dismissed that idea.
“No way! Then how do we get out?” someone cried out.
Everyone’s mentality immediately changed.
Originally, they were having fun.
However, now, there was the possibility that they were actually trapped in here.
Then, the eyes of the crowd looked at Jian Yiling in unison.
If there was no pager to help them, then the only person among them that could lead them out was Jian Yiling.
However, all of them remembered what had happened just now. As a result, it would be rather awkward to ask Jian Yiling for help.
The most awkward person was none other than Yao Moping.
Upon hearing this, Zhai Yunsheng said: “Well, it doesn’t really matter. Let’s just wait in here for the night. In the morning, the store owner should come in to find us.”
Zhai Yunsheng’s words did not ease everyone’s anxiety. Instead, it made everyone realize how important it was to ask Jian Yiling to solve the puzzles for them.
None of them wanted to stay in this place until tomorrow morning.
This place was filled with dust. There wasn’t even a proper place to sit! How could they possibly spend the entire night here?
It would be okay if they were trying to solve the puzzle for the entire night.
However, at this moment, they were basically a group of headless flies. It was so painful to be in this room!
Then, everyone looked at their surroundings. There was an eerie aura of terror in the abandoned factory building.
And thus, the thought of being trapped here for an entire night was not very pleasant for even the boldest of them.
