He stood there for a long time, weighing the matter repeatedly in his mind, and finally made a decision: "It would be better to find out the ins and outs of this matter before starting the investigation."

So he hurriedly left his spot and cautiously crept towards Zhao Fei's office.

Around noon, a policeman came to deliver lunch to Bai Mengfei.

She had been huddled in the corner, filled with anxiety and at a loss, but after hearing the noise, she slowly raised her head, and a plan quietly took shape in her mind.

Just as the policeman delivering the food was about to turn and leave, she softly called out, "Hey!"

Hearing the voice, the policeman stopped, turned around, pointed at himself, and asked with a puzzled look, "You called me? Is there something you need?"

"Mm." Bai Mengfei responded softly, nodding slightly, then stood up and said, "You saw what just happened, right?"

The police officer pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and replied, "I saw it."

"Don't you think they're bullying me?"

Upon hearing this, the policeman took a deep breath. He pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "Even if we saw it, what could we do?"

Bai Mengfei stepped forward and pleaded, "You all have keys. If you can let me out, no one will know it was you who let me go. For the sake of justice, please help me, okay?"

“But if I do that, it won’t help you; it will only harm you. They’ll say you’re fleeing from justice, and then the charges will be even more serious.”

Bai Mengfei quickly shook her head and said, "I don't care about any of that. I have something very important to do right now."

Hearing Bai Mengfei's insistence, the policeman hesitated for a long time before finally taking out his key and slowly opening the cell door. His expression clearly revealed his inner turmoil.

Fearing he might change his mind, Bai Mengfei quickly snatched the key, opened the door, and said, "Thanks!" As soon as the door opened, she swiftly left the police station.

After leaving the police station, she immediately took a car to the hospital.

Knowing that the killer was meticulous and had a passion for intellectual games, she carefully searched the ward, trying to find clues left by the killer using her own wisdom.

However, the more anxious she became, the harder it was for her to find any clues.

In her panic, she tried to calm herself down and quietly looked around. Just then, an empty vase caught her eye.

A question arose in her mind: Why would there be an empty vase in the ward?

She looked up, pondered for a moment, and tried to connect the hair clip she had found last time with this vase, attempting to piece together a meaningful clue.

After some thought, she suddenly realized: it should be "Faping East Street"! Because the vase was placed on the east side of the room.

So she quickly took out her phone and entered the name into a map app. Soon, the street appeared on the map.

Next, she used a ride-hailing app to call a car and asked the driver to take her to Faping East Street.

Upon arriving at her destination, she found the street deserted, with not a soul in sight, and sand, trash, and scraps of paper scattered on the ground.

She walked slowly forward, carefully observing the old shops on both sides of the street.

As she walked, she suddenly stopped and looked up. She saw a Bagua mirror hanging on the door of a house, and the mirror was facing the house on the left opposite.

She immediately ran over and pushed the door open forcefully.

With a creak, the door opened.

She went inside and walked forward, finding the layout of the house quite clear, with red bricks paving the floor. The house had two floors, with a wooden staircase leading upstairs.

She immediately used the wooden ladder to carefully climb upstairs.

Once upstairs, she looked around, then took a deep breath and began searching for the clues she needed in the cluttered attic.

Because it was dark upstairs, she went over to draw back the curtains to let in the sunlight. Just as she opened the curtains, a note fluttered down from inside.

The note read: "The game has officially begun! Each round has three players, and each player will experience a different adventure! Only one player can escape the game!"

"A game? Three players?" Bai Mengfei muttered to herself, immediately thinking of Xiang Yuntian and Wang Tian, ​​who had disappeared earlier. It seemed they had also been chosen by this pervert to become game players.

She drew back the curtains and turned around, only to be startled. On the wall behind her, someone had drawn a terrifying woman in red crayon.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her fear, and lowered her head to search for clues in the attic, trying to find traces left by the murderer.

However, she unknowingly fell into the trap set by the murderer.

With a loud thud, a section of the attic ceiling suddenly collapsed.

She quickly looked up and saw a rope hanging down from above. She didn't immediately go over to grab the rope, nor did she rush to see what was up there.

She subconsciously looked around to see if there were any surveillance cameras.

After confirming that there were no surveillance cameras, she approached the rope and first checked below to see if there was a place to hide.

After checking, she found that the ground below was relatively flat. So, she stretched out her right foot and tentatively stepped on it.

Unexpectedly, with a light step, the wooden plank under my feet fell directly to the first floor.

With a loud "crash," she saw through the hole that the wooden plank had shattered into pieces.

She gasped and frowned. After thinking for a moment, she reached out and tugged at the rope.

She pulled the rope, and it quickly slid down from above; the other end of the rope was tied with a white cloth.

Bai Mengfei untied the white cloth, revealing a note that read: "If you wish to continue, please open the first window on the left and see what's outside."

Bai Mengfei involuntarily turned her head to look at the first window on the left. She felt that the murderer behind her seemed to enjoy toying with people rather than being in a hurry to kill, so she guessed that the murderer would definitely play a trick on her.

However, in order to obtain more clues to find Xiang Yuntian and Wang Tian, ​​she slowly walked to the window, pushed it open, and stretched out her hand.

After groping around outside the window for a while, she felt as if she had touched something soft.

She frowned, hesitated for a moment, but still brought the object inside. When she saw what it was in her hand, she was horrified—she had caught a venomous snake!

This is no ordinary prank; it's a real danger!

She immediately threw the snake out the window, taking a deep breath and trying to calm herself down.
