Chapter 282 (2/2)
1155665, 4433221, 5544332, 5544332, 1155665, 4433221 .
Yu Hanjiang asked, “The pa.s.sword is seven digits but the entire piece has six bars for a total of 42 notes . Do you still use the same method of eliminating repet.i.tions like before . ”
Xiao Lou carefully scanned the recorded numbers . “No, this piece of music is missing a note . ”
Ye Qi nodded in agreement . “Yes, the entire piece doesn’t have ti which corresponds to 7 . If you use the superimposition and elimination method then only six digits would be left . ”
According to the rules of eliminating duplicates, this melody would be 156432 . There was no number 7 and they couldn’t get a seven digit pa.s.sword .
Ye Qi suggested, “It is missing a number . Perhaps we should add 7 directly at the end so the pa.s.sword is 1564327?”
Liu Qiao added, “Lucia has seven rag dolls, there are seven things in the pencil case and the pa.s.sword for the doll is seven digits . Will it be as Xiao Ye said and we only need to add 7 at the end?”
Xiao Lou thought it made sense . “Try it . ”
Yu Hanjiang walked over and entered the pa.s.sword 1564327 into the electronic lock at the door . The moment he finished, a piercing alarm sound was heard . Immediately afterwards, countless rag dolls fell from above .
Xiao Lou, “…”
Being buried by rag dolls? He was a boy and his parents had never bought him a rag dog as a child . Today, he saw so many at once!
Everyone was caught off guard by the dolls . The rag dolls didn’t hurt when they fell and hit the body but this scene made everyone feel dumbfounded . Ye Qi couldn’t help complaining . “The ceiling is obviously sealed yet a bunch of dolls fell from the sky . This isn’t scientific at all . ”
Beside him, Long Sen cursed . “f.u.c.k, the little bear just sat on my head!’
Shao Qingge didn’t know whether to laugh or cry . “This is the punishment?”
Meanwhile, there was a Donald Duck doll hanging from Yu Hanjiang’s head and dozens of teddy bears around him . Yu Hanjiang blankly stripped away the surrounding dolls and turned to help Xiao Lou clean up the dolls .
Seeing Xiao Lou’s dumbfounded face emerge from the pile of rag dolls, Yu Hanjiang couldn’t help smiling slightly . “This punishment is quite unique . ”
Xiao Lou looked embarra.s.sed as he pushed away a Mickey Mouse doll lying on his face . “The music labyrinth we are in is likely to be all dreams so these unreasonable scenes will appear . We are now in Lucia’s bedroom and the child’s way of punis.h.i.+ng us is to use dolls to bury us . If we go to another room, the punishment might be more dangerous . ”
At this point, the other team members also climbed out of the doll pile .
Ye Qi quickly kicked the dolls into a corner and cleared an area where he could stand . He helplessly gazed at the dolls strewn all over the room . “The pa.s.sword is wrong . It seems that it isn’t the elimination method this time?”
The elimination method plus the number 7 was the wrong pa.s.sword . Xiao Lou touched his chin thoughtfully and looked again at the numbers on the paper .
1155665, 4433221, 5544332, 5544332, 1155665, 4433221 .
The first and fifth sections of this nursery rhyme, the second and sixth sections and the third and fourth sections were the same . During Ye Qi’s humming, the third and fourth sections repeated parts continuously . This was kind of like an ‘emphasis’ on singing twice in a row .
The first room used the superimposition elimination method . Perhaps the second second room was the repeated ‘emphasis’ section?
Xiao Lou suggested, “Try 5544332 . ”
The team members heard this and took a defensive posture out of fear that something would fall from the ceiling if the wrong pa.s.sword was entered . Yu Hanjiang stepped forward and quickly entered 5544332 .
However, this time there was no punishment . The moment the pa.s.sword was completely entered, the melody of the music box stopped and the door of the little girl’s bedroom opened with a creak . The sound of the door opening was unusually clear and there seemed to be an echo .
It was pitch black outside the door . The light from the girl’s room warmly illuminated a fan-shaped area of the corridor . The team members exchanged looks . Yu Hanjiang took the lead to walk out of the room and Xiao Lou was right behind him . The other members immediately followed .
There was an empty corridor where the lights were turned off . As everyone walked out the door, something suddenly rushed past their feet . In the darkness, a living creature suddenly rushed past their feet and everyone was frightened . They instantly took out the Night Pearls to light up the corridor .
Yu Hanjiang looked calmly at a corner of the corridor . “It is a cat . ”
As if to prove it, the thing in the corner turned around . Its eyes were a beautiful gold and the color of its fur was as white as snow . It was the cat mentioned in Lucia’s diary that she named Tom . The white cat looked at everyone, meowed and disappeared at the end of the corridor .
Xiao Lou glanced at the direction it disappeared in and was thoughtful . “If Lucia’s family had an accident on Christmas Eve, it is likely that this cat is the only survivor . Perhaps it is here to help us uncover the truth . ”
Yu Hanjiang agreed . “Go, follow her and see . ”
They all followed the cat around the corner and a door appeared in front of them . Yu Hanjiang walked over and opened the door . It was a piano room . There was a huge grand piano in the middle of the room and no other furniture .
A woman was sitting at the piano . She wore a beautiful dress and had curly blonde hair all the way down to her waist . Her hands were on the keys of the piano like she was about to play a tune . However, there was a dazzling burst of blood on her dress . A sharp knife had pierced her chest from the front!
