    [Chapter 47 Death Code 05]

    Since Lu Kai and Luo Jiajia left out the plot clues of Room 8, Yue Xingwen is currently unable to determine whether the death of the bride has nothing to do with the inn itself, or is it just missed? One more round of clues must be collected to continue the analysis. Thinking of this, Yue Xingwen said, "Let's make do with sleep outside the woods first, and we'll talk about it when it's dawn."

    It seems that he has returned to the public elective course "Orienteering", and he can only "camp" in the wilderness.

    Everyone had to find a tree each and sleep with their backs against the trunk.

    In the early morning, Yue Xingwen was suddenly awakened by a quarrel. He frowned and opened his eyes - two boys were quarreling not far away, it was Lu Kai and Gao Yongqiang, the cousins.

    The sky is bright, and the angle of Yue Xingwen's position can clearly see Gao Yongqiang's profile.

    Gao Yongqiang's face was ashen, and he pointed at his younger brother and scolded in a low voice, "Are you fucking mentally ill?! According to the rules, every course has an opportunity to be retaken, and Luo Jiajia is not really dead, just go back to the library. If you can see her, you are tangled up in "hair"!"

    Lu Kai turned his back to Yue Xingwen, his back was thin and thin, and his voice was shaking slightly: "It's not because of Luo Jiajia! I don't want to stay in this library for a minute. A bunch of skeleton monsters, and now even female ghosts have come out! Do you know what else will happen in the future? Maybe there will be all kinds of man-eating monsters!"

    Gao Yongqiang did not speak with a sullen face.

    Lu Kai swallowed even more: "Brother, we only get 10 credits now, and we need 100 credits to graduate. Have you ever thought about how many times we have to go through such terrifying things? I'm really about to collapse! "

    Gao Yongqiang's eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse: "I don't want to come to this library! But what can I do? It's already here! If you give up now, you're not afraid that what the library says is true. In reality, you are too. Will it be wiped out?"

    Lu Kai shook his head desperately, as if to convince himself: "I don't believe that the library can affect the real world, everything here is too fake!" He suddenly had an idea: "Maybe if you die here, can you be resurrected in reality?"

    "Are you trying to die once? You're crazy!" Gao Yongqiang stretched out his hand and was about to beat him, but Lu Kai dodged, his voice sobbing: "Anyway, I don't want to waste time being abused here, you just keep it if you want to continue. I want to go back! I want to go back!"

    His mood was obviously a little broken, so he turned around and rushed into the woods, like a wild horse running away, he couldn't hold it. stop.

    Yue Xingwen soon heard the scream of "Aah" in the depths of the woods. The voice was high-pitched and sharp, like a sharp blade cutting through the silent sky, instantly awakening all the sleeping classmates, and everyone opened their eyes in horror: "What's wrong?"

    Ke Shaobin's glasses were crooked to the side, he hurriedly found them and put them back on, jumping in front of Yue Xingwen like a nimble rabbit, his whole body tense: "What's the situation, are the female ghosts chasing after you?"

    Yue Xingwen looked at Gao Yongqiang, the latter's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he didn't know how to explain it.

    Seeing that he didn't explain, Yue Xingwen had to say: "Lu Kai gave up the exam and rushed into the woods, maybe it was given by a female ghost..." No need to continue, everyone understood the source of the scream just now.

    Gao Xiaoxin's face turned pale: "He gave up the exam? Is it for Jiajia?"

    Yue Xingwen: "..."

    The girl also had beautiful fantasies about love and felt that Lu Jiajia's death stimulated Lu Kai, so Lu Kai went to accompany his girlfriend. But in fact, Lu Kai gave up the exam, not because of his girlfriend's death - but because of himself.

    There are also timid cowards among the boys, and Yue Xingwen didn't know how to evaluate this classmate.

    Gao Yongqiang walked over and gently held his girlfriend's hand, his voice full of exhaustion: "This idiot, when he goes out in the future, I will definitely beat him so much that he won't even recognize his own mother! My sister-in-law is spoiled."

    Gao Xiaoxin bit her lip and said nothing.

    Jiang Pingce, who was disturbed to sleep, was obviously not happy, and said coldly: "The female ghost doesn't come after him, he runs to his own death, this classmate is really creative."

    Everyone: "..." It's really sending people a thousand miles away.

    It was already dawn, and everyone was no longer sleepy after being woken up by Lu Kai's actions.

    Seeing Jiang Pingce's stinky face and a cold expression, Yue Xingwen hurried over, patted his shoulder like a smooth hair, and said with a smile, "Okay, don't be angry. I know you hate sleeping halfway the most. People wake up, and I have time during the day to make up for sleep."

    Looking at Shang Xingwen's smiling eyes, Jiang Pingce's mood finally improved, and he whispered, "We will not give up."

    Yue Xingwen nodded: "Of course, I've had a tough head since I was a child, and I know you are too."

    Jiang Pingce struggled with the Olympiad in high school. In order to graduate early, he completed four years of courses in three years. For the sake of debating and checking materials, Yue Xingwen could only sleep four hours a day for a week - in order to achieve a certain goal, "forcing" himself to work hard is common to them.

    Now they still have each other by their side, and there is no reason to give up. Whoever gives up first will be looked down upon for the rest of his life. They understand each other and can always encourage and motivate each other. No matter how difficult it is in the future, they will definitely come to the end.

    The two looked at each other and smiled, Jiang Pingce's anger was completely cured.

    Yue Xingwen looked back at everyone and said: "Lu Kai's withdrawal from the exam is his own choice. We can't ask everyone to have firm confidence and perseverance. He has the right to decide his own destiny. However, those who remain, Hope to have a little team spirit and don't cause trouble for everyone in the next few days."

    He looked at the couple Gao Yongqiang and Gao Xiaoxin, and said, "I'm familiar with the others, but you two are relatively unfamiliar. You saw it last night, because of the negligence of Lu Kai and Luo Jiajia, we missed important clues, and there is no way Continue reasoning. Please cooperate with everyone's actions as much as possible."

    Gao Yongqiang nodded immediately: "I know. My brother is an only child. He was doted on by his parents since he was a child. He opened his mouth for food and stretched out his hands for clothes. Usually, he couldn't take care of himself, and he couldn't even wash his socks... I'm sorry for causing trouble to everyone."

    Compared with his brother's pair, Yue Xingwen's impression of his brother is not bad. Yesterday, after Lu Kai made a mistake, he scolded his head and covered his face, making everyone embarrassed to scold him again, and the reaction was quite quick.

    Yue Xingwen looked at Gao Xiaoxin next to him: "How about you, are you willing to stay?"

    Gao Xiaoxin's eyes reddened, and she said with a sob, "I don't want to die, my punctuation marks haven't been fully upgraded yet, and I want to change to other skill books... Although the library is dangerous, it's not impossible to clear customs, right? At least To try."

    Yue Xingwen said warmly: "You are right, our Chinese department has a lot of skill books that can be exchanged, and the course will become more difficult, but our ability will also become stronger, try hard, maybe it will pass?"

    Gao Xiaoxin nodded vigorously: "Well, thank you, senior!"

    It was the first time he met a junior in the Chinese department in the library. He just encouraged her as a senior in the same department. As for how far the couple could go in the future, it was not within his concern. At present, the most important course is "Death Code". The progress of last night has been delayed, and they have to hurry up to find clues.

    When Yue Xingwen took everyone back to the inn, the sky was completely bright.

    Everyone walked into the inn and saw Luo Jiajia lying on the ground with blood all over his face. The visual impact caused by the dead classmates made everyone's footsteps froze. Gao Xiaoxin turned his head, his body was shaking, Gao Yongqiang said in a low voice: "She will be resurrected in the library, don't be sad."

    Ke Shaobin whispered, "Remove her body? We can't discuss around her body."

    Jiang Pingce used the coordinate system to transport Luo Jiajia's body to a distance.

    Looking at this inn after dawn, it is much more imposing than what saw in the dark last night. The height of the first floor is more than 3 meters, and some delicate patterns are carved on the cantilever beams on the roof. There was a secret door, which was locked by an iron lock. Yue Xingwen hesitated for a few seconds between violently destroying the iron lock and looking for the key, and chose the latter.

    He said: "Let's look for each other separately and see where the key to this room is hidden."

    The eight people quickly divided their work, four went to the upstairs room to find them, and the remaining four searched everywhere on the first floor.

    After a while, Qin Miao suddenly said, "I found it."

    Yue Xingwen turned around and saw that she had picked up a bunch of keys in her hand, which she actually found from the flowerpot in the corner.

    The classmates upstairs also ran down immediately after hearing it.

    Qin Miao handed the keys to Yue Xingwen: "I counted eleven. Eight of them should be the keys of the guest room on the second floor, and one is for this secret door? The remaining two are unknown."

    Jiang Pingce suddenly frowned slightly: "Wait."

    The crowd looked back at him.

    The tall boy walked quickly to Yue Xingwen, took the bunch of keys, studied it carefully for a moment, and then said, "I thought about it, the exam content of the "Death Code" course is 'Numerical Reasoning', but the examiner didn't directly give it to him. We had a string of numbers for us to guess, but we scattered the numbers throughout the exam."

    Others listened to Jiang Pingce's words and seemed to understand.

    Yue Xingwen's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood: "You mean that from entering the examination room, all the clues related to numbers that you encounter will become the key to connecting the entire case? This is the 'digital password'? "

    Jiang Pingce nodded: "Yes. Have you noticed a lot of things that are not right?"

    Everyone nodded in unison. This place is eerie and eerie, and since walking in last night, everyone felt that something was wrong. The inn was empty, the damp and moldy wooden furniture exuded an unpleasant smell, the strange wedding room, the bride and groom's red wedding dresses, and even the vines that covered the roof and the gorgeous outside. The lotus pond makes people feel weird...

    But in the end what is strange, we can not say a reason.

    Jiang Pingce said: "First of all, this inn looks like three floors from the outside." Yue Xingwen immediately answered: "But the internal structure is two floors, so the numbers don't match?"

    Jiang Pingce nodded and continued: "There are eight rooms on the second floor." He looked at Yue Xingwen, who followed his words: "And the number of ghost brides is seven?"

    The two sang together, and the students finally understood when they heard this.

    Liu Zhaoqing slapped his forehead: "That's right! These numbers are reminding us that something is wrong with the inn! Only by reasoning from the numbers can we discover the secrets of the inn!"

    Jiang Pingce said: "We just found a secret door that we didn't pay attention to last night, plus the 8 rooms on the second floor, we only need 9 keys at present, but there are 11 keys on the keychain, indicating that this inn has other The room was not found by us."

    Yue Xingwen continued: "The seven brides are completely inconsistent with the content of our dream. The plot clues we obtained can be coherent. The heroine is Miss Su's family, and the hero is the disease-riddled son of the Zhao family. The supporting roles are The guard, the doctor, the woman in pink, the wife and both parents, where did the seven brides come from?"

    Qin Miao suddenly said, "It was not uncommon for men to marry several wives in ancient times. The Zhao family is so rich and powerful, could they have found seven girls to congratulate Zhao Gongzi together?"

    Yue Xingwen lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said: "In the ancient people's cognition, seven is the sum of 'yin and yang' and 'five elements'. The Zhao family bought seven brides at a high price in order to congratulate their terminally ill son, but the Chongxi failed. When Mr. Zhao died, they killed all the seven brides and sent them to marry their son... Is it all true? Can it make sense?"

    Everyone pondered the words of Yue Xingwen carefully, and found that Yue Xingwen's speculation could indeed explain the existence of the seven brides.

    Jiang Pingce said, "But the curse of the two ragdolls doesn't match this inference."

    Yue Xingwen also knew this, and immediately arranged: "First put the key to the room. Qin Miao, Qin "Lu", Gao Xiaoxin, the task of testing the key is left to you three girls." He tore a word from the dictionary. A piece of paper and said: "Which key corresponds to each room, write a note and paste it on it, so that it is convenient to check the number."

    The three took the blank paper given by Yue Xingwen, went upstairs with the key, and tried it room by room.

    Jiang Pingce looked at Gao Yongqiang and asked, "I remember, you are from the Architecture Department of Nanyang Jiaotong University, right?"

    Gao Yongqiang nodded hurriedly: "Well, can I help?"

    Jiang Pingce said lightly, "Come with me."

    The rest of the people followed Jiang Pingce out of the inn. Jiang Pingce pointed to the inn and asked, "Architectural surveying and mapping, okay?"

    Gao Yongqiang's eyes lit up: "Yes!"

    In fact, Jiang Pingce himself can use the coordinate system to measure the data, but since the couple is willing to stay, Jiang Pingce wants them to participate. With a sense of participation, the two can gradually trust everyone and not hold back.

    Jiang Pingce's expression was serious: "We first measure from the outside and write out the specific values ​​of the building's periphery; then we measure from the inside to draw detailed drawings of the inside of the building. By comparing the inside and outside, we can find out what's wrong with this inn."

    Human vision is prone to errors, and is affected by various lights and colors. Visual effects are often used in space design. What people see when they walk into a room is not necessarily what the room itself looks like.

    The first impression of the inn is very strange, where is the specific blame-Jiang Pingce believes in the data.
