I'm delivering food in an escape game

Fan Wan left the tower and wandered around. The dungeon is usually located in a basement or something like that, it won't be too conspicuous, so we should start from the main hall.

Sure enough, after going back to the main hall, Fan Wan soon found a staircase going down in a hidden corridor of the main hall.

There was a gust of wind blowing from the bottom up at the entrance. It seemed that the space was not small, and the inside was dark and unclear. There were echoes from time to time, and there was also a stuffy smell unique to the basement.

It should be here.

Fan Wan walked down the stairs. The stairs were made of wood and creaked when stepped on. There were smooth stone walls on both sides. There were small oil lamps hanging at intervals. The light was dim, making it difficult to see the way.

Walking down the stairs to the depths, one after another iron gates appeared, no doubt it was a prison.

There were all kinds of eerie instruments of torture in the open space of the prison. Fan Wan walked over and picked them up curiously. Those flat knives looked like those used in palaces on TV, no matter in size or shape. Moreover, there were still dried blood stains on it, braving blood.

He immediately made up the story of a criminal by himself. It couldn't be that this person fell in love with the princess of the royal family regardless of his status and class, and finally became a criminal, and his "tools of crime" were confiscated by the king.

It was so cruel, seeing those blades made Fan Wan shudder abruptly, as if he could empathize with the criminal's end, he couldn't help but feel his stomach tighten.

Fan Wan immediately put down the instrument of torture in his hand.

Then he walked through empty cells, and found something different in the last cell.

There was a wooden frame nailed to the depths of the cell, but the oil lamp was too weak, and it was pitch black, so Fan Wan had no choice but to take out his cell phone from his pocket and turn on the flashlight.

The sudden strong light came on, like turning on the incandescent light suddenly in a haunted house in an amusement park, exposing the surrounding structures completely, and a skeleton hanging in the corner appeared in front of Fan Wan's eyes.

"I'm going! It's too sudden, brother!" This is not a prop, but a real human skeleton, which caught Fan Wan off guard and almost screamed.

After a while, he slowly approached. The skeleton must have been dead for a certain period of time, the bones were black, and the tattered clothes were rotten on the body, sticking to the remaining flesh.

The skeleton was hung on a cross-shaped wooden frame, with its limbs leaning on iron chains. One can imagine his pain before death. Fan Wan felt that this should be the criminal he was looking for.

The floor of the cell was covered with thick dust, Fan Wan looked around, and finally found the handwriting carved on the floor with a knife after wiping off the dust.

If he guessed correctly, this was the confession of the criminal mentioned in the reminder.

It looked as if the criminal had engraved it in excruciating pain. The writing was deep and heavy, and the writing was a little crooked.

It took Fan Wan a long time to identify the criminal before he roughly figured out the identity of the criminal.

According to the records in the Confessions, it turned out that the criminal was the son of the king, and the purpose of assassinating the king was to "revenge his parents".

"Huh..." Fan Wan was a little puzzled and couldn't help making a sound.

It's a little strange, this criminal is the son of the king, so why assassinate the king?And since he is the son of a king, why should he "revenge his parents"?

It's contradictory here, and some things don't make sense, but there's very little information, and there's no other clues.

Fan Wan bravely observed the skeleton. He must have suffered serious injuries during his lifetime. Judging from the shattered skull and missing hands and feet, it is possible that this criminal was tortured to death in a prison.

It seems that the criminal did not succeed in assassinating the king, was caught, and was finally sentenced to death.

But because it was a dead bone, Fan Wan couldn't tell what the criminal's characteristics were, and it wasn't mentioned in the confession, so Fan Wan couldn't be sure whether the criminal's characteristics were the same as his own, which was blindness in the left eye.

He checked the time, and after confirming that there was no other information, he rushed back to meet other people.

Back in the study, Pei Shu had already found the king's clues, and after waiting for a while until Chunxiong also came back, the three of them began to sort out the information they got.

In Pei Shu's hands were a few pieces of letter paper found in the treasure box, on which were the emperor's manuscripts. He carefully straightened it out from beginning to end before saying:

"According to the narration in this manuscript, it turns out that the king of this country had 14 knights. They made great achievements on the battlefield, but because the king listened to the slander of treacherous ministers and was afraid of the rebellion of the knights who made great achievements, he planned to say that there was a criminal. Lurk among the 14 knights and ask them to find the culprit. As a result, people panicked, the knights killed each other and weakened their strength. Then, the king was assassinated by the criminal, who stabbed the king on the right back."

Fan Wan pondered: "So the king's characteristic is a wound on his right back?"

Pei Shu replied, "It should be true."

After finishing speaking, Fan Wan recounted the confession of the criminal found in the dungeon, saying that the criminal was the son of the king, but because he wanted to avenge his parents, he tried to assassinate the king, but failed, and eventually died tragically.But Fan Wan also expressed his doubts. Why did the king's son assassinate the king to avenge his parents?

"My literature here just answers this question."

Then Chunxiong also took out a notebook from his pocket, which was the clue to the knight he found in the bedroom on the west side, and he said word by word:

"This is what I'm saying here. Because these 14 knights were quite critical of the king, they had a rebellious heart, but they had no excuses and needed to be justified. So they took out one of them, forged their family identity, and lied about being the son of the king. , lived in the countryside, and later became a guard and made military exploits to become a knight, to assist this person to overthrow the current king. This forged knight has a birthmark on his left chest..."

Fan Wan probably understood, and sorted it out: "In other words, this criminal is actually a fake king's son, which can explain why the criminal is clearly the king's son, but he still assassinated the king to avenge his parents. It can be assumed this way, because He is not the real son of the king, probably because his biological parents died in the king's rape, so he disguised his identity and assassinated the king."

"Then the clue is very clear now. The characteristic of the king is a right back injury, and the criminal is the fake knight. His characteristic is a birthmark on his left chest." Pei Shu continued.

After being stunned for a moment, Fan Wan felt very puzzled at the moment. Although everything made sense, this inference was flawed.

Because judging from my performance last night, the criminal was obviously blind in the left eye, why did the information give me a birthmark on the left chest?

This is indeed a bit strange, but because he hadn't looked at his left chest last night, he wasn't sure if he had a birthmark on his left chest, and maybe there were two characteristics of a crime.

Fan Wan decided to check secretly tonight, and to protect her chest after nightfall.

The three of them discussed a few more words, until the sound of walking footsteps came from downstairs. Looking from the window, the people around the castle all went back one by one. They checked the time and got ready for seven o'clock. It is estimated that the butler told everyone Went to the banquet hall for dinner.

Collecting the clues together, the three of them went downstairs.
