Chapter 51.1 (2/2)

However, he also knew that the immediate problem had to be solved as soon as possible. They also had to find the key to the iron door outside. Now, the water had already passed their calves, so they had to act as soon as possible.

Xiao Tangqiu reached out to open the bathroom door. As expected, the door was locked.

“Fucking hell! My hands shouldn’t have been so hasty! I shouldn’t have entered this bathroom! No, I shouldn’t have entered this instance in the first place! No, I shouldn’t have played that horrible game in the first place!” Tang Mianmian muttered, slamming his shoulder into the bathroom door. But no matter how hard he tried, the bathroom door, which looked very fragile, wouldn’t budge.

“Don’t waste your energy. Let’s look for the bathroom key.” Xiao Tangqiu quickly pulled Tang Mianmian away.

Tang Mianmian had let off some steam. He asked Xiao Tangqiu with a gloomy face, “But we’ve looked through this bathroom. There wasn’t anything in it. How can there be a key?”

Xiao Tangqiu smiled, “Just because there wasn’t one earlier doesn’t mean there isn’t one now.

“What do you mean?” Tang Mianmian paused and quickly reacted to what he was implying, “You’re saying…”

“Yes,” Xiao Tangqiu smiled and nodded. “This bathroom isn’t the same one before.”

Tang Mianmian decisively agreed. “Okay! We’ll look for it!”

The two of them quickly searched the bathroom but this time, they still found nothing of value, while the water was almost over their knees.

Tang Mianmian became more and more impatient. “Is there anywhere else we haven’t looked?”

Xiao Tangqiu suddenly had an epiphany. “The water tank of the toilet!”

Tang Mianmian’s eyes suddenly brightened. “That’s right! We haven’t looked there yet! “

They rushed to the front of the toilet bowl. Tang Mianmian opened the lid of the water tank. However, there was nothing inside except for some dirty water with dirt sediment. He even reached in and fished around, not believing that he wouldn’t find anything, but in the end, still found nothing.

“How can this be? This is impossible!” Tang Mianmian was so anxious that he even opened the toilet lid and looked inside. The result was nothing as well.

The water had almost covered the sides of the toilet. Just as he was about to give up, Xiao Tangqiu suddenly said, “Wait a minute, this is a bit strange.”

Tang Mianmian was slow to respond, “What?”

Xiao Tangqiu frowned slightly. “Since this is an escape room game, then the toilet should be fake, but there’s water in the water tank and… it seems to be a real toilet.”

Tang Mianmian pursed his lips, “So what? There’s nothing in it!”

Xiao Tangqiu said lightly. “But there’s no point in putting a real toilet here, so I think this toilet must have some meaning.

Tang Mianmian paused, “But there’s really nothing in it ah…”

Xiao Tangqiu smiled, “How do you use the toilet?”

Tang Mianmian subconsciously said. “Poop, then flush… Flush… Wait a minute!”

Xiao Tangqiu nodded and pressed the button on the lid of the water tank. Suddenly, there was the sound of rushing water in the tank.

A stream of dirty black water gushed out, and at the same time, something floated out with it.

It was a severed hand.

Xiao Tangqiu’s reaction was better, and could be considered calm, but Tang Mianmian was so scared that he shouted, “Fuck! A hand! A severed hand!”

Xiao Tangqiu said faintly, “It’s just a severed hand. Haven’t you seen that before?”

Tang Mianmian thought what he said was right. He had seen it several times before. What was there to be afraid of? So he suppressed his fear and tried to ask Xiao Tangqiu calmly, “Is it a fake hand?”

Xiao Tangqiu frowned and found that the matter wasn’t so simple. “It looks like a real hand…”

Tang Mianmian gasped, but he was no longer afraid. “Fuck!” It really is a hand!”

Xiao Tangqiu looked down. The severed hand should be real. Because it was very lifelike, the lines exposed under the surface of the water surface from time to time was very clear and the texture of the skin was also very natural. An artificial hand wouldn’t be as lifelike.

“Wait a minute, there seems to be something in the palm of the broken hand…”

The broken hand was tightly clenched and the hand seemed to be holding something. Before Xiao Tangqiu could carefully study it, Tang Mianmian who was impatient, stretched out his hand and reached for it.

Tang Mianmian grabbed the severed hand and pried open the fingers. As he did that, he apologized profusely. “I’m sorry, you’re dead but we’re still so disrespectful towards you. We have no choice now that our lives are at stake. You, who are in the spirit world, please don’t blame us or look for us…”

Tang Mianmian had a hard time prying open the fingers. A silvery object suddenly rolled out and fell into the water. Xiao Tangqiu grabbed it quickly.
