stepping into the night

"This...is completely inconsistent with the contents of the diary we just found in the first room." Liu Lei took out the leather notebook he brought and spread it out on the ground. There are scraps of paper and notebooks.

"The one that was torn up may be what the original owner really wanted to write." Ye Xingzhi said.

Neither Ruan Chu nor Lin Jiang knew the background of this secret room theme, so they were silent, listening to the reasoning and analysis of several other people quietly, connecting the scattered clues from their words, and roughly figured out what the story was about. background.

The background of the secret room they entered was an abandoned residential building. It used to be that some old people who stayed at home or people from poor families lived in it. It was rumored that a fire broke out in this building for no reason, and the room of the fourth resident on the fourth floor was burned down. Unrecognizable, and at that time the hostess and hostess of the family were working outside, leaving only a youngest daughter who was about to enter the sixth grade at home.Since then, this residential building has been haunted by ghosts from time to time, and the residents all say that the ghost of the little girl has returned and wants to seek revenge on the people in this building.Later, the residents here were unwilling to live here any longer, and moved away one after another, and the building was abandoned here.

After a long time, this residential building became a "ghost building" in the mouths of the children nearby. There were three or five brave people who went to explore together. Some said they saw the burned girl, and some said nothing. Seeing that the students of Lanting High School did not believe such rumors, they made an appointment with them to find out. The players who entered the secret room to explore were these high school students.

"Indeed," Li An nodded, turned around and pointed to the charred corpse nailed to the wall, and conjectured, "This girl may not necessarily have been burned to death, but may have been homicide."

"Ah?" Zhao Tong looked at the expressions of several seniors with great admiration, "Does the Department of Mathematics still have to minor in forensic science?"

Li An paused, couldn't help but smiled slightly, looked at Lin Jiang who was whispering to Ruan Chu calmly, and thought to himself, no wonder Brother Jiang would be willing to invite himself and Liu Lei over to meet those who have never met before Primary school students play the secret room together.These juniors are very easy to get along with, even strangers who have never met, will involuntarily let go of their defenses because of their enthusiasm and sincerity.

"No," Li An shook his head, and explained to him patiently, "There is nothing to be seen on this corpse, but look at the bloody dress on the clothes rail over there, look at the style and size, it should be It’s all the little girl’s clothes, most likely some kind of abuse.”

"Tong Tong, you are so shameful." Zhou Yue covered half of his face, and lightly slapped Zhao Tong with his elbow.

"But this is the little girl's own home, how could she be abused?" Zhao Tong scratched his head.

"It should be domestic violence." Lin Jiang said calmly without raising her head.He and Ruan Chu are trying to piece together the torn pieces of paper.

"But the background of the previous story is not that this family is happy and happy. The daughter is a good child who is praised by the neighbors. The father is also a simple and honest man. After the loss of the child, the couple was heartbroken and moved away Sadly, the mother also has mental problems because of the grief of losing her daughter." Zhou Yue recalled.

Lin Jiang lowered her eyelashes and didn't say anything else, Ruan Chu also quietly put the piece of paper together with him on the space that was vacated by the few people sitting around, and after another ten minutes, the two of them sat next to the other people. With the help of putting together the pieces of paper, I saw the content recorded above.

——Today's New Year's Eve, he went to drink with his co-workers, and my mother and I were finally able to spend a peaceful night without any pain.

--it hurts……

--Why?Why do those uncles and aunts in police uniforms listen to him?Why? !

--help me……

—I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kept that rabbit... I thought he wouldn't find out... He forced me to strangle it with my own hands!

——If I can bring those evidences and hand them over, they will definitely know the truth, right?

……

After reading the content on the piece of paper, everyone felt more or less confident. After a moment of silence, they all got up to look for clues to leave this room, but there was nothing in this room except for the door when Zhou Yue and the others came over. Door.

Ye Xingzhi and Zhou Yue walked around the clothes rail to look at the half-person-high window, but found that the window was locked and could not be pushed open. Zhou Yue called out to other clue seekers: "This window over here It may be the passage to go out, but it is locked, can you check if there is a mechanism in the room?"

Several people quickly divided into groups, Ruan Chu and Lin Jiang searched the wine cabinet carefully, and saw a landline connected to the line in the cabinet, Liu Lei, Li An and Zhao Tong found a few video tapes in the foam ball pool.

"This landline can be used, senior, what do you think should be dialed?" Ruan Chu turned to ask Lin Jiang.

"What do you think?" Lin Jiang asked without answering,

Ruan Chu thought about it, and licked his lips in embarrassment: "I actually can't think of anything very deep. The little girl wrote in her diary that the police failed, and there was a working landline in her room, so she should be Reported to the police, but the secret room will not be so easy to guess."

"It's okay, try it," Lin Jiang said softly, "In the first two rooms, isn't your guess right? Be more confident in yourself."

Ruan Chu blinked, and smiled at Lin Jiang with his lips pursed. His gentle and sincere eyes looked at Lin Jiang through the clean lenses, making it hard not to treat him with a gentle attitude and tone.

The two tried the phone number of the local police station here, and it didn't take long to hear Zhou Yue say that the window lock was unlocked.

Behind the window is a very narrow passage, like a ventilation duct, even squatting is difficult, so they can only bend down and crawl. Several people lined up to enter. Before leaving, Lin Jiang reminded the clothes and videotapes that will be placed on the clothes rail. Ruan Chu was a little puzzled, but didn't ask any more questions. He followed Lin Jiang and planned to be in the rear.

When the two entered the passage through the window, Lin Jiang took the initiative to take a step back and let Ruan Chu go first: "Your clothes are inconvenient, go ahead."

It was only then that Ruan Chu remembered that she was still wearing a short skirt.

From the beginning of entering the secret room to the present, Lin Jiang helped him pull up his skirt many times.On the one hand, Ruan Chu felt ashamed of his own situation, on the other hand, he was happy for Lin Jiang's consideration for him, and the tips of his ears were slightly stained with red. Without much entanglement, he lifted his legs and stepped on the window to climb into the passage.

When Lin Jiang was passing through the passageway, when she looked up, she saw Ruan Chu's two gleaming white thighs. When she bent down, she wanted to see the beautiful butterfly bones protruding from his back when he was crawling. The fabric made his skin whiter, making Lin Jiang feel that it was a very offensive thing for her to look at Ruan Chu at this time.

But he could still see Ruan Chu's graceful calves and ankle bones when he lowered his head, and it was hard not to get distracted for a while.

Fortunately, this is playing in the secret room, and she needs to be distracted to find the decryption clues in the room. Lin Jiang secretly warned herself to restrain her mind, and after exiting the passage, she took the initiative to start looking for clues, trying to dispel the thoughts in her mind that were not suitable for trial.

The passage just now was made of wood. After Ruan Chu and Zhao Tong came out, their knees were rubbed red. Zhao Tong was left alone, and she didn't care. Lin Jiang silently dragged a chair over for Ruan Chu to sit on, and then After checking to make sure that his knee was not injured, he got up and went to find clues.

Everyone put together the clues they found and gradually pieced together the whole story line.

The little girl's father was a laid-off worker, and her mother worked in a factory. After being laid off, the father began to drink heavily. After drinking, he beat and scolded the mother and daughter frequently to vent his anger.But when he goes out in front of the neighbors in the neighborhood, he will pretend to love his wife and daughter deeply, creating an image of a simple and honest person, and no one will hear the little girl screaming in pain every night, blocked by a thick stone wall cries.

He asked his daughter to have the best grades, forbade her to confide in her diary or to friends about her experience of abuse, and even installed a surveillance camera in the room, tearing up the girl's diary and ordering her to record it again. The notebook that people saw in the first room of the Chamber of Secrets.

As she grew older, the girl heard what the teacher said at school to learn to resist violence. She tried to call the police and seek help from outsiders, but the image of her demon father outside was so good that people outside They all listened to the man's words, thinking that the little girl was rebellious and wanted to fight against her parents.

The girl secretly hid all the clothes stained with blood when she was beaten and scolded as evidence, and deliberately ran to a place where the surveillance could show her when she was beaten, hoping to find a chance to take all these evidences to the police station, but she didn't. Thinking of the landline phone in her room being monitored by her father, she was unable to dial out when she called the police for the second time, so that she was tied up and beaten to death by a man who was drunk and furious, and even her shoulders were stabbed with spikes from the factory. Nailed on the wall.

She died unsuccessfully in bringing those evidences to the world.The man who woke up from the drunken violence immediately called and ordered his cowardly and submissive wife to take a detour to buy alcohol to delay her return home. At the same time, he turned on the high-power electrical appliances at home and piled up the flammable materials It came out that this was a move that could easily cause fires in dilapidated residential buildings, and the facts were just as he expected.

As for those haunted legends, it was nothing more than that he deliberately did it when he went back to destroy his criminal evidence, so that people would stay away from this building covered in darkness.

In the last room, there was a window with the logo of the police station. Several boys realized that they were going to hand in the evidence collected by the girl. They couldn't help but praise Lin Jiang's carefulness. Lin Jiang smiled and shook her head lightly.

When the clothes and video tapes were put in the window, the room suddenly went dark, and then the light from the projector on the ceiling displayed the words "Thank you" on the wall.

The closed iron door slowly opened, and the staff smiled and congratulated them on their smooth clearance, saying that they avoided a single-player mission and needed to go through a small passage to return to the original room to get the evidence.

——But in the penultimate room, the clues are not completely clear. How can Lin Jiang predict which things will be used?

The few boys who were immersed in the lamentable plot and the joy of clearing the level did not expect to ask Lin Jiang this question, and all carried their clothes to the locker room to change.

Ruan Chu and Lin Jiang still went to the dressing room together. When the door was closed, Ruan Chu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to ask something, but he hesitated for a while and still didn't make a sound. He lowered his head and began to unbutton his shirt.

"Proving domestic violence requires an injury test and a series of evidence." Lin Jiang's voice sounded unhurriedly behind her, "And there are obvious hints in the girl's diary."

Hearing this, Ruan Chu paused when he put on his T-shirt. He didn't know what to say, so he lowered his head and turned his backhand to unzip the short skirt behind him.

"My mother collected all these evidence back then, and it took a long time to successfully divorce the man when I was born." Lin Jiang's voice was emotionless, as if she was explaining the experience of an irrelevant person to Ruan Chu .He paused, his voice was much softer, and he seemed to be muttering to himself, as if he didn't want Ruan Chu to hear him, and he laughed at himself a little: "I don't know if I was a mistake or something."

Ruan Chu was stunned, and felt a little warmth behind him—Lin Jiang, who had already changed her clothes, turned around and pulled down the zipper of his skirt for him, Ruan Chu could feel the touch of Lin Jiang's warm breath on her neck .

Ruan Chu's heart beat faster, and he didn't dare to look back at him, so he could only force himself to calm down, and while putting on his pants, he said in a serious tone: "How is that possible! You are so good... It is obviously a kind of luck to meet you. You are the greatest blessing."

Lin Jiang didn't expect his first reaction to be so serious. The eyes that fell on his reddish ears were dispelled by a smile, and he looked more gentle, and changed the topic: "Junior Ruan Ruan, your clothes are wrinkled."

He raised his arm around Ruan Chu's waist to straighten the wrinkled hem of his clothes, looking as if he was holding Ruan Chu in his arms.

Ruan Chu gently held his breath.
