Horror Game: Cthulhu Fairy Tales

Chapter 148 End Game (12)

Half an hour later, Qian Nan figured out the map and found the correct path leading underground.

Looking at the wall in front of him that opened automatically due to the activation of the mechanism, Xie Yueye realized how reckless he had been.

Seeing Brother Xie becoming obedient for no apparent reason, the boy didn't know what was going on.

What appeared in front of the two people was an elevator hidden behind a wall.

After entering the elevator, there are only buttons for the underground first, second and third floors on the panel.

The boy directly pressed the button for the third floor underground. The elevator door slowly closed and began to move downwards.

The air in the elevator fell silent, and an indescribable quiet and awkward atmosphere spread.

"Ding--"

The boy was thankful that he would soon reach the right floor, otherwise Brother Xie's sudden silence would have been too much for him to handle.

After arriving at the third underground floor, the elevator door slowly opened, revealing a bright corridor.

The corridor was very narrow and could only accommodate one person. Although the young man wanted to protect Xie Yueye, it was obvious that the man did not need him to do so.

Xie Yueye walked in front, holding the dagger tightly in his hand.

The entire corridor is covered with light strips above, and there are closed walls on both sides. There are no gaps in the entire wall and it extends to the end.

When he reached the end, Xie Yueye was the first to see a code door appearing in front of him.

He was not good at cracking this kind of code, so he could only exchange positions with the boy behind him.

Qian Nan was stunned when he saw the password door in front of him. It was not because the door lock was too advanced. On the contrary, it was because the password on the door lock was too old and there was no way to crack it directly.

"Brother Xie, this requires the correct password to pass. If I'm not mistaken, after a few wrong inputs, the electronic lock will break down and the door can't be opened directly."

The older the electronic lock, the more difficult it is to destroy it with extreme measures.

When Xie Yueye heard this, he immediately turned around and looked at the enclosed corridor behind him.

Obviously, the password hint will not appear in the corridor, and the only person who really knows the password is the one who can enter the room.

The two looked at each other and obviously thought of the same Yuan Datou, but going back to find that man was obviously not a good idea.

After the two looked at each other, they came to the conclusion that they should just give it a try, and at worst they could just take the door down.

On the first try, Xie Yueye chose Lin Yue’s birthday. Obviously, the red light indicating the wrong password lit up.

For the second attempt, the boy chose the day when Lin Yue took power, which was also the day when Lin Yue was appointed.

Obviously, the password was wrong twice, and they only had the third chance.

"Xie brother, do you have any clues?"

The boy obviously couldn't think of any other possibility except the time when the minister took office.

Xie Yueye also had no clues. Before Huang Xiang took him to see Lin Yue, he only knew that the Special Operations Department had a very mysterious minister who was directly appointed by the official.

Both of them fell silent.

The cat that was staying next to Xie Yueye was obviously getting impatient at this time.

Although the new owner had just opened a new can of food for it, it was obvious that the "Ocelot"'s stomach was not so easily filled.

It stretched out its claws and pulled at Xie Yueye's trouser legs.

"Hmm? Are you hungry again?"

Xie Yueye only brought two cans of food with him when he went out, and he never thought it would take so long.

He had eaten all the food he had prepared for himself, so naturally the "leopard cat" had no food left.

The man thought about it and decided to try it randomly.

He picked up his cat, pointed to the combination lock in front and said, "If you open it, I'll go find a can for you."

Faced with Xie Yueye's behavior, Qian Nan showed an expression of not being able to bear to watch. Brother Xie really deserves to be the boss's partner. Their style of doing things on a whim is really the same.

Obviously, the cat understood what its new owner said. It tilted its head and thought for a moment, then pressed it with its paw without hesitation.

The young boy looked at Xie Yueye without any hope as he was vandalizing the door with his cat in his arms. He was thinking about how to remove the door lock later when he heard a reminder sound.

"drop--"

After the prompt sounded, the green light above the door lock lit up, and with a "click", the combination lock was opened by the cat in Xie Yueye's arms.

The boy was stunned.

"This? I'm going??"

It looked at Xie Yueye in disbelief, then looked at the cat being held in the arms of the handsome man and having its chin stroked, and felt that all this was really too incredible.

But at this moment it also thought of its own identity. Since a creature like itself, which is no longer a human, can appear in the world, then what is impossible to happen?

The extremely lucky "Ocelot" pressed the correct password directly and obtained the right to get the can.

"Meow~~~"

It barked happily, rubbed its owner's palm, and then jumped to the ground.

The clever little kitten knew that now was not the time to ask for a can, but it was very happy that its new owner owed it a can.

Xie Yueye smiled at the cat, then reached out and pushed open the door in front of him.

What came into their sight was a corridor that was much wider and could accommodate two people.

The lighting in the corridor was a little dimmer than the one they were in now.

Warm yellow light strips illuminate the ground, and ahead is a corridor filled with pipes.

There are doors on both sides of the corridor that need to be opened by turning the knob.

As soon as the two stepped into the corridor of the pipeline, the door behind them closed.

“Click—”

There was no door handle or combination lock on the closed door, and it was obvious that this was a one-way passage.

The two of them looked back together and walked forward.

This time the corridor is not as simple as before. At the end of the corridor, there are two identical corridors on both sides.

Qian Nan was about to speak when he saw Xie Yueye put down the cat hanging on his shoulder.

"You lead the way."

The man said this with a smile and a happy expression, making the boy successfully cover his face and feel powerless. He knew that Brother Xie would do this.

The "Ocelot" landed on the ground, looked left and right, and then walked towards the passage on the right without hesitation.

"Let's go."

Xie Yueye raised his feet and slowly followed his cat. The young man had no choice but to risk his life to keep up with this completely unreasonable man and cat.

The two walked forward and encountered the same fork in the road. However, the cat still stuck to his original direction and walked to the right without hesitation.
