I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

Chapter 357: The Agency Under the Agency

Less than half an hour after Qin Wei returned to her room with the fishing line, Pei Yan and the others finally returned from the cave.

The three men crawled back out of the cave entrance, took some effort to put the things that were originally placed at the entrance back in place, and then walked towards the wing room.

The night was silent, with no other sounds at all.

The three of them went up to the second floor, looked at the extremely silent temple, turned around, said good night to each other, and then returned to their rooms.

At this time, Qin Wei had just fallen asleep.

However, although these people were asleep, they all had something on their mind and were just looking forward to the daytime coming quickly.

The next morning, before anyone woke him up, Gu Chaoxi opened his eyes.

She sat up from the bed without wasting a moment, wiped her face casually with a towel, and walked outside.

Just as I came out, I happened to hear two other doors open. I looked up and saw Pei Yan and Qin Wei.

"Little cutie!" Qin Wei turned around and saw Gu Chaoxi standing in the corridor, and called her with some joy.

She smiled and nodded, her eyes passed Qin Wei and then looked at Pei Yan, and she nodded in tacit understanding with him.

"It seems that everyone has gained something?"

Qin Wei stretched lazily with a smile on her face.

"You too?" Gu Chaoxi asked with a smile when he saw her like this, and sure enough, Qin Wei nodded.

"Let's talk in my room?"

Qin Wei said, turning her head to look at Pei Yan, and saw that the doors of several other rooms were also opened: "Since everyone is awake, let's have a small summary together and exchange information."

"Well, come on everyone." Pei Yan smiled and walked towards Qin Wei's room.

Zhou Youyou and Shen Lan looked at each other and immediately followed.

In the room, four of them sat on chairs, and the remaining four simply sat around the table.

First, Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan put out the things they found last night. The first one was a broken jade pendant, and the second one was a treasure map.

"The jade pendant and the treasure map were both found in the graves of the two anonymous people."

Qi Chuzhao was a little surprised: "You dug up the grave?"

Gu Chaoxi just glanced at him and explained to him: "You will have to get used to it in the future."

Once they enter the plane, there will always be many things that they need to break through.

Indeed, digging graves is not auspicious from any perspective, but there is no other way, they need verification.

Qi Chuzhao understood what Gu Chaoxi meant, nodded, lowered his head and said nothing more, looking a little dazed.

Gu Chaoxi raised his hand and pointed at the treasure map on the table, pursed his lips, and spoke.

"Maybe it's not a treasure map, but a place that hides a secret. This man died because of this."

"As for this jade pendant, we can only confirm that her surname is Qin. She may be a young lady from another Qin family."

Qin Wei nodded when he heard that.

"That is to say, the story of the eldest daughter of the Qin family may not be false, but there is a deviation between the story and the real story."

"Well, this is the current guess." Gu Chaoxi nodded.

Pei Yan tapped his fingers on the table: "Now we have to find the place on this picture, maybe the doubt can be solved."

If the host returns on the morning of the fifth day, then today is their last chance.

"What did Weiwei discover?"

Gu Chaoxi tilted her head, she did not forget Qin Wei's expression when she greeted her.

Sure enough, when Qin Wei heard herself being asked, she curled the corners of her lips and smiled.

"I went to the yard of the next wing last night and saw something extraordinary."

She recounted her experience with the fishing line last night and then talked about Zhao Zhiyan.

Sure enough, there was something wrong with Zhao Zhiyan, but he had been ignored before.

"So you went out last night?"

Qi Chuzhao glanced at Qin Wei, and there seemed to be some emotion hidden in his eyes.

Gu Chaoxi did notice it, but he felt it was a little confusing and couldn't tell what was wrong.

She wanted to ask, but after opening her mouth, she swallowed the words.

His eyes turned around, and finally fell down, finally locking onto the treasure map.

After returning to the temple last night, on the way back to the room, Gu Chaoxi used a tinder to check the treasure map again.

She always felt that the picture depicted something more like the ancient Anning Temple.

But she really had no clue, and now that everyone was here, she just shared her guess.

"Actually, I think this treasure map looks a lot like the ancient Anning Temple, but not quite. Do you have any ideas?"

After that, several people stared at the treasure map.

But no matter how you look at it, there is nothing but a line winding through the mountains and mountains painted everywhere.

After a while, Qi Chuzhao suddenly spoke.

“If you consider the two mountains connected together as a door, and the others as walls, then connect the ones next to the door, and the remaining space is the corridor.”

As he said this, he stretched out his hand and gestured on the paper.

If we connect the mountains close to the two mountains, we will form an irregular closure.

If we regard these closed parts as a square, the originally winding lines will be pulled into a series of connected straight lines.

In this way, all you have to do is figure out where the starting point is.

Gu Chaoxi's eyes lit up. Indeed, according to Qi Chuzhao's description, this was a map spread out on the ancient Anning Temple.

"I think the starting point is the main hall."

Gu Chaoxi smiled: "Only when the starting point is the main hall, this map can reach an end point."

"If you look at it this way, the end point is..."

Pei Yan's fingers fell on the paper in front of him, moving along the direction of the lines. When his fingertips landed at the last point, Qi Chuzhao took over the conversation.

"Mrs. Zhao's room."

Yes, that's it.

Qin Wei frowned: "But I checked Madam Zhao's room. Apart from the mechanism on the bed I saw last night..."

Before he could finish his words, Qin Wei suddenly stopped.

The mechanism on the bed!

She raised her eyes and looked at Gu Chaoxi in surprise, but he just looked back at her, as if waiting for her next words.

"There may be other mechanisms under the bed, and the ones above are just to cover them up."

Or maybe it's to divert attention.

With the mechanism for hiding things on top, many people may think that this is the only mechanism on the bed.

That way, if there's a mechanism under the bed, no one will notice it.

In this way, it is hidden quite well.

Gu Chaoxi bent his eyebrows. Indeed, just like Qin Wei's habitual thinking, he felt that since there was already one on the bed, there wouldn't be another one.

But what if the person who designed the mechanism did it on purpose?

"So when are we going to go check it out?"

"Let's go eat and show our faces first, otherwise it will be very difficult to deal with if someone comes looking for us."

Pei Yan lowered his eyes. If they disappeared together in the ancient An Ning Temple, the people in the other wing would definitely know about it.
