477: Chapter 216: Class Reunion_2 477: Chapter 216: Class Reunion_2 The girls were too embarrassed to ask outright, but riding in a classmate’s car was definitely more convenient and relaxed than taking a taxi, not to ntion it was a rcedes and a BMW.
“It’s settled then!”
Lin Baici clapped her hands and walked toward the roadside, ready to hail a car.
The girls didn’t say anything.
Thirteen people and two cars surely wouldn’t work, and even if they did fit, how would they be split?
Apart from Zhou Zhou, everyone actually preferred to ride in Qian Jiahui’s rcedes, even if it was borrowed.
“There are too many people, Pei Fei and I will set an example by taking a taxi!”
After Ji Xinyan finished speaking, she pulled Pei Fei’s arm and headed to the roadside.
“…”
Bai Jiao watched Ji Xinyan, suspecting that her opponent was using a “retreat to advance” tactic, deliberately whetting the appetites of Qian Jiahui and Xu Daguan.
After all, what is unattainable is always in flux.
Of course, there was another possibility: Ji Xinyan had set her sights on Lin Baici.
If that were the case, Bai Jiao would regret it because she saw Ji Xinyan as a rival.
If Ji Xinyan based her choice rely on looks rather than inner beauty, Bai Jiao would find this ongoing secret competition quite aningless.
“Let’s go!
Let’s go!”
Fang Mingyuan and Hu Wenwu went after Lin Baici.
The boys walked in groups toward the roadside.
During school days, in a change of seating or a group event, most hoped to be together with the prettiest girl in class, or the one they had a crush on.
But now it was different.
Anyone with a bit of sense knew so people were out of their league; it was ti to let go of fantasies.
On the roadside, a taxi pulled over.
Fang Mingyuan conscientiously took the front seat.
Lin Baici opened the door, letting Ji Xinyan and Pei Fei get in first.
Tea sister played a little trick, allowing Pei Fei to go first so she could sit next to Lin Baici, but to her surprise, Lin Baici let Hu Wenwu get in before her.
“…”
Ji Xinyan was speechless.
I sll nice and I’m soft; you really don’t want to be close to ?
Fortunately, Hu Wenwu was shy and didn’t dare to sit next to Ji Xinyan, so he pushed Lin Baici inside.
When it was his turn to enter, the driver spoke up.
“This is overloading!”
“What?”
Hu Wenwu was embarrassed, and then looked at his classmates with a hint of panic on his face because he had not really interacted with them before.
“Let him on, I’ll give you an extra hundred yuan!”
As Ji Xinyan said this, she took out her phone, opened WeChat, and scanned the paynt code.
“…”
The taxi driver was baffled.
That hundred yuan could certainly pay for another taxi.
Why cram so many people together?
But a fool would pass up money; just needed to dodge the traffic police and all would be well.
Lin Baici, already a large guy plus a solid Hu Wenwu, made the backseat of four look like a sandwich.
“Should I get out?”
Hu Wenwu felt awkward.
“The money’s already paid!”
Ji Xinyan thought to herself, this is exactly the effect I wanted.
Alas!
It was a pity that it was autumn, the clothes were too bulky, and she couldn’t feel Lin Baici’s muscular fra at all.
“To the Red Island Pavilion!”
Fang Mingyuan was full of enthusiasm, ready to show off.
Lin Baici’s group left first, but Xu Daguan clearly wanted to show off his new car and driving skills, quickly overtaking the taxi.
Qian Jiahui, on the other hand, drove steadily.
Inside the cab, the atmosphere was lively.
Ji Xinyan was a social butterfly, with sociability as a basic attribute.
Even the quiet Hu Wenwu found himself speaking a lot under her guidance.
With Ji Xinyan there, no one felt excluded or unable to blend into small circles.
An hour later, they arrived at the Red Island Pavilion.
Hu Wenwu got out of the car, feeling a bit regretful; the ride had been far too short.
“We probably won’t be able to sit together on the way back, right?”
Hu Wenwu was a bit disappointed.
Soon, all 32 students of class 01 arrived.
After buying tickets, the staff inford them that they needed to divide into groups, preferably three to four, because too many people in an escape room would be problematic.
“Let’s divide up the sa way we did for the car rides!”
Ji Xinyan suggested.
“I’ll be with Old White!”
Qian Jiahui ca over.
Naturally, the girls who rode in his car would stick together.
Liu Yu curled his lip, clearly annoyed.
Why should you guys get to play with the girls?
But since Qian Jiahui had already spoken, everyone accepted this division.
Xu Daguan looked at Zhou Zhou and Liu Zilu and almost wanted to cry.
Can you switch it up for ?
I’d like Ji Xinyan, Bai Jiao would be fine too.
The escape room at Red Island Gallery was a hit.
When Lin Baici and his group entered, they had broken through three challenges and encountered six young people.
They must be students from so university, trapped in this particular challenge.
“The answer should be in this equation, just solve it!”
A guy in Nike crossed his arms and stood in front of a small blackboard filled with formulas, but his eyes were sneakily glancing at Ji Xinyan and Bai Jiao.
Especially Tea sister, her fashionable outfit was very eye-catching.
“This is way too hard!”
A girl complained.
Having been there for half an hour, her interest had faded, leaving only boredom: “I’d rather go to a bar!”
“Hang on, about to solve it!”
The guy in Nike had his brain in overdrive.
Lin Baici glanced at the blackboard, walked over to a bookshelf, pulled out a book from a compartnt, flipped through a few pages, found a key inside, opened a safe in the room, took out a voice recorder, played it, and numbers sounded from the speaker.
Lin Baici walked up to the code lock by the door, entered the string of numbers in reverse.
Click!
The door opened.
“…”
The guy in Nike was dumbfounded.
The girl’s mouth was agape with shock, forming an ‘O’.
What was happening?
A reincarnation of Hols?
Wasn’t that decryption a bit too fast?
“Let’s go!”
Lin Baici was the first out the door.
For soone used to playing at God’s Ruins levels, this kind of escape room was child’s play.
“Whoa, isn’t Lin Baici just amazing?”
Pei Fei was stunned.
“Hehe, for those people, it must have been a very poor gaming experience!”
Ji Xinyan couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Aweso!”
Qian Jiahui loved this dominating feeling.
What?
He didn’t contribute anything?
It was a joke.
Lin Baici was his good roommate.
His roommate’s triumph was his own, no question about it.
Bai Jiao looked at those left behind in the escape room.
If Lin Baici were her boyfriend, she’d feel honored at this mont.
Because beating others felt really good.
“Hey, squad leader, how did you solve it so fast?”
Pei Fei was curious, “Is there so kind of trick?”
Everyone’s gaze turned to Lin Baici.
“People co to play these gas at Red Island Gallery to seek thrills and enjoy the sense of intellectual superiority, not to be tornted.
Those equations on the blackboard, only the top-ranked honor students in universities could solve them, and I believe, that sequence of numbers was the correct answer!”
Lin Baici explained, “But the problem is, most people don’t have the computing ability, so the answer must be sowhere else!”
Hu Wenwu listened intently.
“So how did you find the clue on the bookshelf?”
Bai Jiao couldn’t help asking.
“Sa old story, the owner opened this shop to make money, not to torture people.
Players would only co back if they had a good ti.
Therefore, the placent of clues will definitely not be difficult.”
Lin Baici shrugged, “So how do you make sure most people can find it?
Just put the answer out in the open!”
“The locked safe definitely has key props inside, which requires a password to open, so the equations on the blackboard make sense.”
“But since many people can’t solve it, what do you do?
Find an alternate route!”
“Don’t directly look for clues but use reverse logic based on the various props in the escape room, focusing on the items themselves.”
Without the pressure of potential death, these types of challenges couldn’t rouse Lin Baici’s interest.
To be honest, he was starting to miss the excitent of life and hoped that the Busan Divine Ruins in Goryeo would bring a huge surprise.
“That’s cheating!”
Bai Jiao frowned, “A proper escape room is about finding clues step by step.
You, on the other hand, analyze the function of each item right from the start, which takes away the fun of deducing!”
“True, I’ll stay quiet from now on.
You guys play!”
Lin Baici smiled slightly, thinking to himself, cheating?
If I, the Eater God, started talking, I’d show you what a speedrun of an escape room really is!
If I can’t finish these nine challenges in five minutes,
I lose!
“No, don’t do that.
I just saw the billboard, it said that if we set a new record for the fastest clearance, it’ll be free!”
Pei Fei wanted to save money, and Lin Baici could clearly make it happen.
