Gamers Are Fierce

The metal safe hidden in the compartment behind the oil painting looks boxy, extremely heavy and solid, and is not powered. It only has a straight-shaped lock core installed in the center of the front.

Need a key?

Li Ang glanced at the shape of the lock cylinder and understood instantly. He took out the padlock on his wrist from the pocket of his suit.

The shape of this lock cylinder corresponds to the padlock key C with only the lower half.

But when I opened the padlock before, the lower half of key C was inserted into the lock cylinder, and it has not been taken out yet.

Li Ang took out the padlock,

After the padlock body is opened, its silver-white lock beam (that is, the silver-white U-shaped steel) automatically falls off.

Li Ang picked up the padlock and shook it. Key C inside was not shaken so much that it fell out, but he could vaguely hear a slight jingle inside.

It feels like it can be taken out.

Do you need a magnet?

Li Ang groaned. He had checked before when he was in the utility room. Whether it was the lock body, the lock beam, the key AB, or the steel pipe in the utility room, they were non-magnetic. Key C could not be removed from the lock cylinder. Suck it out.

What about this safe?

Li Ang moved the lock body close to the safe and did not feel any magnetic attraction.

Do you want me to use the wires in the house and modify an electromagnetic coil myself?

Li Ang said to himself: No, it's not possible, there's not enough time.

And if a solenoid is really needed, there will surely be a hint somewhere...

He groaned, picked up the lock, put it under the light of the flashlight, squinted his eyes, and observed under the strong strobe light.

I found that light can shine from the place where the lock beam falls off, along the keyhole, to the other side.

In other words, the lock cylinder is not completely blocked.

You can use something sharp to push out the broken key C from the lock cylinder through the other side of the keyhole.

Li Ang suddenly had an idea,

Immediately scan your surroundings for sharp objects.

Things that can pass through the lock cylinder must be thin and sharp objects like needles and threads...

Li Ang quickly searched the study room. Unfortunately, Steven is an American.

There is no fine Eastern tradition of keeping needles and thread in every household.

And Steven’s family doesn’t seem to have any hobbies like cross-stitch.

I looked around and couldn't find any needle or thread.

Can't find...

Li Ang closed the piano lid, took a deep breath, decided to find another way, and said to the lock: Why are you so ordinary yet so confident?

You are just an ordinary padlock,

It's not as high-end as a fingerprint lock, nor as solid and reliable as a password lock.

Instead of allowing yourself to continue to be mediocre,

Why don't you learn from other foreign locks, strive to enrich yourself, and become a better lock?

After finishing speaking, Li Ang waited for three seconds.

However, the lock cylinder was not opened because of his sharp words.

It really doesn't work.

Li Ang shook his head in disappointment and had to think of other ways.

Holding a flashlight, he pushed the wooden doll to the children's bedroom, took a mechanical pencil from the desk, deftly disassembled the mechanical pencil, and took out a 0.5 mechanical pencil lead from it.

Sit on a stool, push the pencil lead with your palm, and pierce the back of the lock core.

Li Ang's hand was steady and steady, and he used the pencil lead to hold the broken key accurately, and slowly pushed the key out.

The whole process took half a minute. The moment the lock cylinder emerged from a section of the broken key, Li Ang immediately stopped, pinched the broken key with his nails, and pulled it out.

call...

Li Ang took the key, breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead, Fortunately, the traditional craftsmanship has not been lost.

He took the broken key, ran quickly back to the study, inserted key C into the square keyhole of the safe, and turned it gently.

Click.

The door of the safe opened with a sound, and by the light of the flashlight,

Li Ang saw that the safe was divided into two layers. The upper layer contained six brass round-head pistol bullets, and the lower layer contained a square piece of paper with a bunch of letters and numbers written on it.

AB=21113512

ABB=211135223

18215, 3712, 2113, 2514, 3616, 1317

This is...

Li Ang took out the pistol bullets and pieces of paper from the safe. The pistol bullets were intact and ready to be fired.

The handwriting on the piece of paper is a bit frivolous and gaudy.

It is not the same kind of handwriting as the tattoo that appeared on Li Ang's arm, which is the reminder given by the old woman outside the spirit world.

The bullets and pieces of paper in the safe...

Li Ang pondered: The pistol in the house was probably purchased by Steven himself, and was later used by his wife Mavis to commit suicide, although she did not commit suicide.

The pistol bullets and this piece of paper in the safe should also be left by Steven...

Just as he was thinking, the wooden doll behind him made a click-click sound again.

According to the rule of shortening the sealing time by half each time,

The flashlight can seal it for 20 minutes for the first time, 10 minutes for the second time, and 5 minutes for the third time.

Later, it becomes two and a half minutes, more than a minute or even less.

Also, after each seal, the time required to freeze the doll the next time becomes longer.

Li Ang must act as soon as possible.

He didn't have time to think too much and quickly checked the safe.

After confirming that there are no hidden compartments inside or outside the safe, or a password engraved on the bottom of the back, etc.,

He immediately ran out of the study and rushed into the corridor.

When he came to the corridor, he discovered the last unexplored place in the whole house - the master bedroom.

Rich black gas is being emitted continuously,

It accumulated quickly on the corridor floor and reached calf height.

These gases obviously have no substance,

When walking in it, there is a strong sense of stagnation and blockage, like stepping into mud and making it difficult to move forward.

And the cold is biting, making the limbs numb and the face turning blue,

As soon as Li Ang took a step, he retracted his legs, turned around and returned to the study. He took out three chairs from the study and threw them into the corridor with all his strength.

Use the chair as a springboard and jump three times to reach the door of the master's bedroom.

呲——

More black mist overflowed from the cracks on the upper, lower, left and right sides of the bedroom door. Li Ang shone the light back and forth with the flashlight, and then managed to clear a space so that he could see the original shape of the bedroom door.

Li Ang pushed open the dial of the electronic combination lock, revealing a 26-letter keyboard similar to a computer keyboard.

In this case, the electronic code lock installed on the bedroom door was still powered.

Seven _ symbols appear on the LCD panel.

Do you need a seven-digit password?

Li Ang covered his mouth and nose with his suit and tie to prevent himself from having adverse reactions if he inhaled the gas, and his mind quickly changed, The keyboard has 26 English letters, no numbers, and no symbols.

That means a seven-letter, or shorter, password is required.

Seven letters...

He pressed the keyboard keys and entered Steven's name, Stevin.

No response.

Neither did Mavis, Robin, Lin, or even the names of Steven's parents and Barbara.

Click, click.

The sound of bones shaking came from the other side of the corridor,

The black cat, whose life and death were unknown, moved its stiff body little by little, looking like it might escape at any time.

Without hesitation, Li Ang turned the flashlight and illuminated the black cat with strong strobe light, freezing it again.

Sure enough, this black cat is much stronger than the wooden doll. The first seal is only effective for less than ten minutes.

If the black cat is an extension of Mavis's power, then how powerful will Mavis herself be...

Li Ang gently exhaled a breath and allowed himself to think calmly.

A seven-digit English alphabetical password.

Outside the spirit world before, the psychic Barbara said that the houses in the spirit world are based on the real world, and also incorporate some false and fictitious things in Mavis's mind.

Mavis and her husband Steven both like cryptography.

That's why there are so many contents related to passwords and puzzles popping up in the room.

For example, the padlocks that locked my hands and feet at the beginning, the astronomy secret box that appeared in the Chevrolet SUV, and the piano code in the study.

In the real world outside the spirit world, Steven and Mavis's room would definitely not have such an overly complicated and inconvenient combination lock.

In other words, the lock belonged to Mavis' imagination.

Moreover, the bedroom on the second floor of the house in the spirit world is where Mavis uses to close her own room, and the password to the bedroom door must also have some symbolic meaning.

Li Ang's brain was working, and he slowly took out the note found in the safe.

AB=21113512

ABB=211135223

18215, 3712, 2113, 2514, 3616, 1317

Word puzzle? Hint? If the row of numbers under ABB is the final password, there are only six numbers.

Does not match the seven-digit password.

Moreover, in the following row of numbers, only the first 18215 has five digits, and the others have only four digits.

In addition, among these numbers and letters, the number 9 or the number 0 does not appear...

Does this mean anything?

Li Ang frowned and thought for a moment. His eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of the input keyboard of the combination lock, and he understood instantly.

Wait, that's what it meant...

He took a breath through his tie, pressed seven times on the keyboard, and entered seven English letters.

drop--

A green light lit up on the LCD panel, and the password lock opened silently.

...

Li Ang squatted on the stool and looked at the black mist pouring out from the crack in the door. He paused and then pushed the door open without hesitation.

As soon as the door was opened, the black mist poured out of the room.

Li Ang waved the flashlight in his hand, splitting the fog like a lightsaber.

When the black fog gradually dissipated and the density decreased, Li Ang was able to see clearly the scene in the bedroom.

Different from imagination,

Beige wallpaper, cross-shaped flat windows, gray and white curtains, double bed with white quilt and silk quilt cover, bedside tables and table lamps placed on both sides of the double bed.

There is a mechanical alarm clock and ashtray on the bedside table on the left.

There is lipstick on the bedside table on the right.

On the wall above the double bed, there are two paintings, one of a butterfly and a peacock.

There is a TV cabinet at the end of the double bed. There is an LCD TV on the TV cabinet. The TV is turned on and is playing on a loop something that Li Ang heard in the living room before.

There is news about a serious car accident in the town of Carmel, where a Chevrolet SUV collided with a motorcycle.

Next to the TV cabinet is the dressing table.

Mirrors, cosmetics, and stools are all available.

Looking at the furnishings, it should be the place where the hostess puts on makeup after waking up and washing up every day.

A very ordinary double bedroom,

Except for a little bit of black mist remaining in the corner of the room, and the figure standing still outside the double bed.

She was a woman of medium height, with long black hair reaching her waist, wearing a gray dress.

Her face was obscured by long black hair, and her facial features could not be clearly seen, but judging from the outline of her face exposed through the gaps in her hair and her white (or pale) skin, she should be pretty.

She was wearing a gray dress, and the corners of the dress had traces of being burned by fire.

The black mist was pouring out from under the cuffs and skirt of the dress.

...

Li Ang squatted on the stool and looked into the room under the protection of the strong light of the flashlight.

The woman in the room who looked like Mavis slowly turned her head and glanced at Li Ang.

Bang-bang!

With just one glance, Li Ang's heart beat violently again, making him think that his heart was going to jump out of his chest and burst on the spot.

Without any hesitation, Li Ang moved the flashlight with his finger so that it could cover the woman with long black hair.

The flashlight's strong light flashed, and the black mist melted and dissipated like snow meeting the scorching sun. The black-haired woman's head turning movements also became slow and slow.

efficient!

The strong flashlight proved itself once again. Li Ang held the flashlight and continued to illuminate the black-haired woman.

Hold the top of the back of the stool with your other hand, step on the chair with the soles of your feet, and adjust your body's center of gravity.

Come and control the four legs of the chair to lift off the ground one by one, and rock forward in the room filled with black fog.

Li Ang controlled the chair and walked slowly into the bedroom. When the distance was right, Li Ang stepped on the chair, jumped up, and stepped on the double bed.

...Today, a serious car accident occurred in the town of Carmel. A Chevrolet SUV accidentally lost control while driving and hit a motorcycle. Two injured people have been sent to the hospital and are still being rescued. ..”

The local station's news program was still playing on the TV.

The black-haired woman was still affected by the light of the flashlight and did not attack or move.

However, when the flashlight light shone on her, she could clearly feel that she was a little powerless.

The light dimmed slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye,

It's like the power consumption is too high.

There was a stinging pain on Li Ang's arm, and a new tattoo appeared [The pistol is in the drawer of the bedside table on the left! 】

Tips from Barbara from the outside world.

Li Ang narrowed his eyes, stepped on the double bed, rushed to the bedside table on the left, opened the two drawers of the bedside table, and finally saw a pistol in the second bedside table.

Opening the magazine, it turned out to be empty and could hold six bullets.

【quick! Steven, kill her quickly! I can't hold it any longer! 】

Barbara once again sent a tattoo reminder, the handwriting was messy and scrawled, as if she had suffered great pain.

...

Li Ang looked at the tattoo on his hand, then at the video looping on the TV, and slowly loaded the pistol.

Then he jumped up, stepped on the stool, and faced the black-haired woman head-on.

Using the barrel of the pistol, he lifted up the other person's bangs that covered his face.
