Chapter 284, Music Maze 5
The clues found in the study are the most common in all rooms.
The invitation contains the names of the invited persons attending Christmas Eve Arty, and the murderer is probably among these people.
In addition, we also found the Christmas gift box given to our wife by the hostess and the hostess’ performance arrangement table. The location on the arrangement table corresponds to the latitude and longitude of the globe, unlocked the gift box, and saw the Christmas card written by the hostess.
However, the door to the study room was not opened.
Xiao Lou looked around and looked at the bookcase on a wall, saying, "We probably missed the clues. Everyone should hurry up and look at a row of bookcases for each person and read them as soon as possible."
The desk and drawer have been carefully turned over, and no other clues were found, and the bookcase with only one wall was left without careful inspection.
Qu Wanyue checked the cabinet on the far left and saw many professional works on music.
On the far right side of Lao Mocha, he saw some professional architecture books. He quickly flipped through these books and said to Xiao Lou, "The male owner Wells is an architectural designer. He opened a design company. This book contains an introduction to his company."
Xiao Lou took it and put the clues in his pocket and put them away.
Judging from the introduction, the architectural design company opened by Wells is quite large and its income is definitely considerable. With the money earned by his wife in performing around the world, this family can afford a five-story single-family villa, which is obviously a wealthy family, so the possibility of the servant killing the owner for money cannot be completely ruled out.
Long Sen searched for the bookcase in the middle and said, "There are many CD boxes here, Xiaoye, come and have a look."
Ye Qi walked forward quickly, looked carefully, and immediately said, "These are all high-quality versions of Richard Clayderman's piano music. It seems that the hostess Shirley is a loyal fan of Richard Clayderman."
Richard Clayderman, a world-renowned piano master, was born in France. He has many famous piano works. Several CDs appearing on the bookcase are very famous singles. Ye Qi said, "These five CDs are "Fate", "Starry Sky", "Autumn Whispers", "Wedding in Dreams" and "Argentina, Don't Cry for Me."
Ye Qi took the five CD boxes and handed them to Xiao Lou, "Will these CDs be related to the password of the room?"
The recorder I just found in the piano room can only play tapes and cannot play these CD discs. Obviously, this room is not a voice control mechanism for playing CD unlocks. Is the meaning of these CD singles a case prompt or a password prompt?
Xiao Lou lowered his head and pondered for a moment, opened the CD box all, and then was surprised to find-
Four of the CD boxes were empty, and seemed to have been taken away by the hostess. Only the box of "Argentina, don't cry for me" contains a brand new CD disc. The picture on the front of the disc is printed in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina.
When the teammates saw this, they looked at each other in a glance.
There is only one CD box with a disc, and the thumbnail of the capital city is printed on it. What does this mean?
Xiao Lou immediately reacted and said, "Liu Qiao, check the latitude and longitude of the Argentine capital 'Buenos Aires' on the globe."
After hearing this, Liu Qiao hurriedly rotated the globe and found the capital of Argentina, and reported the result "34 degrees south latitude and 58 degrees west longitude."
Xiao Lou walked to a wall of bookcase.
Go north and south, left west and right east. If the latitude and longitude correspond to the coordinates of the bookcase, then the coordinates of this book are counted from the left (west) to 58 books, and then 34 books from the bottom (south).
The bookcase has only four floors, and it is impossible to place books on the 34th floor from bottom to top. However, Xiaolou found that after aligning the longitude coordinates of 58, the books in this row were stacked horizontally.
The books that are stacked flat can be placed in nearly 20 books on each layer.
Xiaolou counted 34 books from bottom to top according to the coordinates of 34 degrees south latitude, and finally locked the intersection coordinates corresponding to the latitude and longitude.
This is a world famous book.
--"lover".
The moment Xiao Lou pulled out the book, the bookcase in front of him suddenly made a "boom" sound. Then, the bookcase quickly rotated 90 degrees, opening a long and narrow passage in front of everyone!
The teammates looked at each other.
Everyone is still thinking about what Argentina means, but in the end, the latitude and longitude of the globe correspond to the horizontal and vertical coordinates of the bookcase. After extracting a key book, the bookcase will automatically rotate and open the channel - this is a withdrawal mechanism!
Fortunately, Xiaolou reacted quickly enough, otherwise everyone would have been stuck in this secret room for more than ten minutes.
At this time, the countdown had reached 30 minutes, and half of the time was used up. They successively unraveled the little girl's dream, the little girl's bedroom, the mistress's piano room, and the male owner's study room. Two corpses were found, and the speed was already considered fast enough.
But as the agency became more and more difficult, Xiao Lou also felt a little nervous.
The male owner's body had not been found yet, and the murderer had no idea. He held a lot of clues he had collected before, and quickly sorted out his thoughts while walking.
After the bookcase rotates, there is a staircase, and you can only walk upwards.
Everyone walked up the stairs, and Xiaolou briefly said, "The classic book "Lovers" tells the love story of a poor French girl and a wealthy Chinese man. The two love each other, but due to religious beliefs and ethnic culture differences, they finally failed to get together. The heroine could not overcome the racial differences, returned to Paris to settle down, and married a white man; the hero followed the traditional Chinese marriage and followed the orders of his parents, and married a Chinese girl he had never met. Many years later, the hero brought his wife to Paris and called the heroine. He said that he loved the heroine as deeply as before, and would love her forever until his death."
Many people have not read this famous book, but Xiao Lou happened to read it. Even if he has not read it, the name of the book is very obvious. Yu Hanjiang frowned and said, "It seems that this time is a love murder case? Several clues in succession are related to feelings."
Whether it is the piano piece "Wedding in a Dream" or the "Lovers" that unlocks the bookcase, the stories told are love tragedies.
It is impossible for such coincidences to occur continuously.
Yu Hanjiang said, "The current suspicious characters, including five friends invited to the house on Christmas Eve party, as well as the little girl's private doctor, nanny, and driver. The motive for the crime is love killing. It is very likely that they are unable to love the hero or heroine, and their psychology is gradually becoming perverted. They simply find an opportunity to kill the family."
Just now, Xiao Lou thought that maybe the servants killed someone for money, but the continuous clues of "love story" made him deny his guess. Yu Hanjiang's analysis is more reasonable, and in this case, the possibility of love killing will be greater.
At this moment, everyone walked along the stairs to the first floor.
There are two rooms on this floor, with a door on each side. Xiao Lou said, "There is not much time left, let's take action separately. Four people enter a room in groups, otherwise the remaining 30 minutes may not be enough."
The most difficult thing is to limit one hour to the secret room.
The real escape room game, if there are so many rooms, it will take at least 5 hours for the players!
Yu Hanjiang coughed lightly and said, "Group... do you think it's feasible?"
Xiao Lou looked at him and said, "We open the channel of mind and understanding. If we can't solve the puzzle, we can discuss it."
Yu Hanjiang then felt relieved. Anyway, Xiao Lou had "seeking help outside the field", he didn't have to worry about any difficult mechanism.
Xiao Lou summoned Qin Guan and connected with Yu Hanjiang with a spiritual connection.
Yu Hanjiang quickly made a decision, "Liu Qiao, Xiao Ye, Mr. Shao followed me to the room on the left."
Xiao Lou said, "There are three left to go to the right with me and keep communicating at any time."
Eight people entered two rooms in groups and continued to collect clues—
In the room on the left, Yu Hanjiang took his teammates into the door and found that this was a toy house full of childlike fun, which obviously belonged to the little girl Lucia.
The room was filled with all kinds of rag dolls, and the walls were painted with her brush, with colorful painted blue sky, white clouds, green trees, and various cartoon cows, sheep, and rabbits. This big room was tossed by Lucia, and the walls were almost ruined by her. The couple obviously loved this only daughter very much, leaving such a big room for her to draw diy.
Yu Hanjiang looked at the toys all over the room and felt a split headache.
Xiao Lou noticed his thoughts and said through the passage of mind, "Look for any rules for these dolls."
Yu Hanjiang said, "These dolls are too messy, let's sort them out first."
Ye Qi and Liu Qiao immediately went to find the rules separately, while Shao Qingge stood in the middle of the room and carefully studied the walls painted by the little girl.
Yu Hanjiang stood in the corner of the wall, and asked Xiaolou in a spiritual passage, "What's going on over there?"
Xiao Lou said, "It's the hostess' cloakroom, a lot of clothes, bags, and shoes."
The cloakroom that is several dozen square meters is extremely luxuriously decorated.
The wardrobe on three walls is full of beautiful skirts, and there are many dresses for participating in the performance; one wall is made into shoe cabinets, high heels, and flat shoes; there are many drawers on the counter in the middle, which are places for storing exquisite jewelry.
Xiaolou asked each of his three teammates to slim over a wall's wardrobe and focus on the pockets of his clothes, while he searched for the jewelry table in the middle.
The drawer on the bottom layer of the jewelry table is locked and has a four-digit password on it.
In the escape room game, there must be important clues for anyone with a lock.
Xiaolou asked his teammates to quickly search for the wardrobe.
Long Sen and Lao Mo felt that they couldn't start when they saw some clothes. Qu Wanyue was the most efficient. Soon, an old wallet was found from the pocket of the inner layer of a coat, and there was a group photo inside.
The photo shows several young men and women, including the heroine Shirley and her husband Wells, as well as two other men and three women.
The seven people stood in the row and smiled happily, and they could not tell the special relationship just by looking at the smile.
Qu Wanyue took it over and said, "In the photo, the seven people are all wearing bachelor's uniforms who graduated from college, and they should be classmates. The other five, two men and three women, would they be five people invited to attend the Christmas Eve party?"
Xiao Loudao "It's possible."
He turned the photo over and there was a row of numbers behind it—
A group photo of the 1998 graduates on June 7th.
The password lock on the drawer is exactly four digits, will it be 9867?
Xiao Lou thought about it and it shouldn't be so simple to write out the password directly. Enter 9867. If you enter the wrong way, I don't know what the punishment in this room would be...
Xiao Lou was silent for two seconds, and rarely wrote the password directly in the escape room game. The numbers behind the photo were likely to be interference items. He gave up the simple attempt of 9867 and looked carefully at the jewelry table.
The jewelry table is arranged in a regular manner.
There are five gem necklaces from short to long hanging on the left, 8 pairs of earrings in the middle, and 7 bracelets on the right.
8 pairs of earrings can be understood as the number 16.
The arrangement of these jewelry may be the password of the bottom row drawer of jewelry.
The four-digit password is 5167 from left to right, 7165 from right to left? Or are they not?
At the same time, Ye Qi and Liu Qiao also found a pattern in the children's fun room next door.
The two of them sorted out all the dolls in the room.
Ye Qi was so tired that he was sweating profusely. He pointed to the rag doll under his feet and said, "There are 5 Mickey Mouses, 6 Bears, Snow White's Barbie dolls of different colors, 3 big turtles, and 8 plush rabbits of different sizes."
Liu Qiao said, "There is a cabinet here, and there is a password lock hanging on the cabinet, which is a five-digit password."
There was nothing else in the room, and Shao Qingge thoughtfully said, "It seems that the numbers after these dolls are classified as the password of the cabinet, and the key lies in the order."
5, 6, 7, 3, 8, how to arrange the order?
If the five numbers are arranged randomly, there will be many possibilities. If you make a mistake, you will be buried by a doll... Several adults don't want to experience such a punishment again.
The rag dolls in the room have been sorted out. There must be clues in the room how to arrange them.
Yu Hanjiang looked at the colorful graffiti on the wall and said, "What do these paintings on the wall mean?"
Shao Qingge said with a headache, "I can't understand these things children draw."
Ye Qi pointed to the crooked graffiti on the wall on the left and said, "This wall seems to be a story about a tortoise and hare racing. If you follow this story, the tortoise beats the rabbit and should be ranked in front of the rabbit. But no animals like Mickey Mouse, bear, or the like were found on the wall."
Liu Qiao looked at a big tree graffiti on the wall with a line of words written next to it. She whispered, "The lifespan of trees is much higher than that of humans. How great would it be if they could become a tree? You can eat enough if you bask in the sun every day."
So...what is the password for this children's graffiti room?
