Chapter 476: Twin-Tailed Loli

Bang.

A gunshot sounded, and the entire building went dark. When the light was restored, the scene on the first floor had indeed changed, and a notice was posted on the glass door.

【9 Dots is on the roof.】

Chen Ran stroked his chin. There were only these few words on the notice, with no other information.

He and Jiang Zhe came to the elevator again and opened it, but they didn't dare to ride it.

They looked at the buttons.

This building had thirteen floors. Thirteen was a very sensitive number, so in order to verify their guess, they walked up the stairs next to it.

Along the way, the two were very careful, but they encountered nothing and arrived in front of the roof.

The door leading to the rooftop was closed. The two opened the door and came to the rooftop.

There were three rows of numbers on the safe.

First row: 1-9 Dots.

Second row: 1-9 Bams.

Third row: 1-9 Craks.

Chen Ran was deep in thought.

'Although there is no electronic display on the safe, so we don't know how many digits the password has.'

'But, this building has thirteen floors, and the password is related to Mahjong.'

'Therefore, the password should have thirteen digits, and must form a winning hand for 9 Dots.'

'To win on a 9 Dots...'

'There are two combinations.'

'One: a single wait on 9 Dots.'

'Two: the hand pattern has the 7 Dots and 8 Dots tiles, and the winning tile is at least a 6 or 9 Dots.'

'But there's only 9 Dots inside, so the probability of a single wait on 9 Dots is the highest.'

'In other words, at least one of the thirteen password digits is a 9 Dots.'

'It's just...'

'There are many ways to play Mahjong. For example, Sichuan Mahjong requires voiding one suit. Simply put, out of Dots, Bams, and Craks, one must discard all tiles of one suit. Assuming the discarded suit is Bams, then out of the thirteen tiles in hand, one cannot keep a single Bam, otherwise it's a Flowered Pig and you have to pay all three opponents.'

'If it is Sichuan Mahjong, there must definitely be Dots. The remaining suit is either Bams, Craks, or a Pure Flush.'

Jiang Zhe pressed his ear against the safe, listened for a while, frowned, and said: "There's a ticking sound inside, it should be a bomb. If we input the password incorrectly, it might explode."

Chen Ran nodded: "There's another problem. The password pays attention to sequence. What's related to the password sequence in this building should be the floor sequence. In other words, we might have to start decrypting from the first floor to obtain the corresponding password."

Jiang Zhe was noncommittal: "Midway we might obtain some interfering passwords, so later we must first determine exactly which region's Mahjong rules it is."

The two first deduced, and then, exchanging words back and forth, they finalized the decryption plan.

However...

The two sneered. In the next moment, Jiang Zhe drew his Liar-Slayer and said: "Had enough fun playing?"

Before long.

Applause sounded behind the two. They saw a man with a thick gold chain sitting not far away. Facing the unfriendly gazes of the two, he shrugged.

"Come on, you guys made the Secret Room disappear first, you can't blame me, right?"

Simply put, the password of this safe corresponded to the decryption in the Whisperer's Escape Room. But just now, Jiang Zhe used a skill to make the Whisperer's Escape Room disappear.

And the door to the rooftop was closed, so the safe created by the skill didn't disappear.

To put it even simpler.

The Whisperer's Escape Room and the safe were created by the skills of two different Ghost Whisperers.

Forming a joint decryption.

Jiang Zhe's skill only made the Whisperer's Escape Room disappear, while the Ghost Whisperer who created the safe wasn't here, and the door was closed, so it was fundamentally impossible to decrypt right now.

Unless the Ghost Whisperer created the corresponding Whisperer's Escape Room again.

It wasn't over yet.

Since the decryption was in the Secret Room created by the Ghost Whisperer, then the notice posted on the first floor was fake; the 9 Dots wasn't inside the safe.

This move should have been specifically aimed at entrapping players with skills like Jiang Zhe's.

"Do you still want to continue?" Chen Ran was in no mood for nonsense.

The man with a thick gold chain was speechless: "You guys go down to the first floor, and don't make the Whisperer's Escape Room we create disappear again."

Chen Ran and his companion nodded. If they hadn't suppressed their Mental States in advance, this misunderstanding would have made them awkwardly frozen in place.

The man with a thick gold chain watched the backs of the two leaving, secretly cursing them for being shameless.

'They really know how to pin the fucking blame on others!'

At this time, another person came to the rooftop from the top floor. It was an old woman.

To be exact, it was Granny Zhang whom Chen Ran had met yesterday. She pointed at the Three-Star player standing on the opposite rooftop: "He has already provided me with a lie. Good thing I didn't use a skill just now, otherwise if it disappeared, I would have to pay him Points again to provide me with a lie."

As the saying goes, cats have their ways, and dogs have theirs. Five-Star players could apply for permissions, but Three-Star players whose time was almost up could only rely on providing lies to Five-Star Liar-Slayers to earn Points to renew their time. Of course, they had to establish a Future Lie with each other in advance, and couldn't Judge the person providing the lie.

The man with a thick gold chain nodded: "With this lesson learned, those two shouldn't make the Whisperer's Escape Room disappear again. You can also use your Liar-Slayer skill with peace of mind."

"I inquired about it, these two seem to both be Three-Star players. They shouldn't have too many Points on them, how about we wait for other players to come here to decrypt?"

"Okay!"

Previously, the Whisperer's Escape Room was prepared in advance, and one could decrypt it upon arrival. But now they could choose when to create the Whisperer's Escape Room and let the players decrypt it.

…

Chen Ran and Jiang Zhe waited for about half an hour, but didn't see the Whisperer's Escape Room appear.

"Are we being looked down upon?" Chen Ran asked Jiang Zhe: "How many Points do you have?"

"This reincarnated body only has a bit over five thousand Points. The other reincarnated bodies have relatively more."

Good heavens. Chen Ran felt he was already rich enough, but didn't expect the person in front of him to be the real tycoon. The two combined had a bit over eight thousand Points, enough for the two people upstairs to live here for thousands of years.

But, who told them to be greedy?

Chen Ran felt that the strength of the Five-Star players here might be very low, probably only at the level of Four-Star players. After all, living in a comfortable environment for a long time, people would degenerate and gradually lose the thinking they should have.

They waited for another half an hour.

Finally, players entered.

A team of five, three men and two women. The leader was a Twin-Tailed Loli, and the Liar-Slayer at her waist was a normal color.

Captain, normal color.

This instantly made Chen Ran and Jiang Zhe understand that this Twin-Tailed Loli was an expert. Distance-Free could immunize against many special skill effects.

It was just that she seemed...

To have come to the wrong place.

In the upcoming decryption, it was impossible for Chen Ran and Jiang Zhe to use skills. Her advantages would be cut in half.

"Not leaving?"

The Twin-Tailed Loli stared at the two and asked.

She wanted to clear the area.

Seeing the two shake their heads, the Twin-Tailed Loli narrowed her eyes and sized them up for a long time.

After a little thought.

She actually turned around to lead her team away.

Actually, this was also understandable. She almost had the word 【Strong】 written on her face, yet these two still weren't afraid. They were either fools or experts, and she felt it was the latter.

But, it was already too late.

The Secret Room suddenly turned dark, accompanied by two gunshots at the same time. Perhaps because the distance was relatively far, they didn't hear the skill commands.
