Chapter 647: Escape Room (5)


And thus, a few of them began to say nice things to Jian Yiling:


“Sister-in-law, could you please help us again?”


“Yeah, staying here for the night would be too much for us. Please show us the way out.”


“Yeah. The pager is broken. And thus, we can only rely on you now.”


Xing Wei and Han Mengyu also began to flatter Jian Yiling:


“Sister-in-law, we’re all depending on you! You got this! Please help us get out of here!”


“Yeah, yeah! It’s a pleasure for us to watch you solve these puzzles.”


However, upon hearing this, Zhai Yunsheng said: “Well, it still seems as though Miss Yao does not want Yiling to help.”


Miss Yao.


This was probably the first time in years that Zhai Yunsheng took the initiative to mention Yao Moping.


At first, it seemed as though Zhai Yunsheng was being polite and courteous. However, in reality, Zhai Yunsheng’s words were distant and hostile.


They had known each other for so long already.


However, to him, she was still ‘Miss Yao’.


As there was a lack of light in the room, the group could not clearly see Yao Moping’s facial expressions.


However, they could easily guess the expression on Yao Moping’s face.


Yao Moping looked around her. She saw that people around her were looking at her with hopeful eyes.


She didn’t want to slap herself in the face. However, unless she had the ability to lead everyone out of the escape room, as of now, she could only ask Jian Yiling to help them.


“Miss Yiling, please continue to help us,” Yao Moping said.


Upon hearing this, Zhai Yunsheng said: “Well, wouldn’t that ruin the fun for you?”


Yao Moping attempted to restrain her temper as she said: “I’m sorry.”


Upon hearing Yao Moping’s apology, Jian Yiling finally made a move.


Just now, the group had spent a lot of time looking for the exit. However, Jian Yiling merely took three minutes to get out of that room.


It was as though she had gotten the script in advance.


As soon as Jian Yiling began to problem solve, the whole group moved through the puzzles incredibly quickly.


An hour later, the group escaped from the abandoned factory building. They ended up back in the store.


The one-eyed store owner had a surprised expression on his face when he saw the group come out.


These people actually solved his escape room?


They hadn’t even asked him for any hints!


Furthermore, it only took them two hours!


This was the first time someone managed to escape the rooms he designed without asking for any hints.


The one-eyed store owner and his highly intelligent shop a.s.sistant scanned their eyes over everyone.


This group frequented the escape room. Previously, they had asked for a lot of hints.


Then, the one-eyed storekeeper’s eyes fell on Jian Yiling.


Out of the group, Jian Yiling was the only one who hadn’t visited before. She was the variable that was different.


And thus, the one-eyed store owner walked towards Jian Yiling and said: “Our store is willing to give a lifelong VIP card to players who can get through the escape room without using hints. Are you interested in continuing to play in the future?”


Jian Yiling nodded her head. She was also curious about this store.


Then, the store owner asked Jian Yiling to register her information.


His eyes watched Jian Yiling write down her name and contact information.


When Jian Yiling finished writing down her details, the one-eyed store owner had already memorized those details.


Then, Jian Yiling asked the store owner some questions regarding the production of the dummies.


Seeing that Jian Yiling was interested in their dummy production, the store owner invited Jian Yiling to come and watch their production process in the future.


Upon hearing this, Jian Yiling readily agreed.


After Jian Yiling left the store, the store owner made an international call. The call lasted for around ten minutes. During that call, the store owner gave Jian Yiling’s contact information to the other party.
