At this moment, Neal, who was at the back, weakly raised his hand and said, ‘I cracked the code, opened the door, and saw a figure inside. I think it must be Mr. Valor.”
If he’d known, he would have gone in alone. Who could have guessed that the scariest thing inside wasn’t the ghosts but Jonathan and Oliver who were jumping around, shouting, and screaming?
Milly was relieved that at least someone managed to do something right and completed the mission.
The speaker crackled again. “Congratulations to the players for successfully rescuing the eldest son of the Valors and completing this haunted escape room.”
As the announcement ended, the door next to them slowly opened, and the bright sunlight temporarily blinded them.
Jonathan and Oliver were already spinning in circles under the sunlight, determined to get the light on every corner of their bodies..
Oliver, with bright, sparkling eyes, waved at Milly, saying. “Ms. Milly, come bask in the sunlight! Ghosts are afraid of light!”
On the way back, Ace voiced a question from the viewers, “Ms. Milly, during the first challenge, you mentioned that the first key was incorrect. Many viewers didn’t understand how you figured it out. Could you explain?”
Milly nodded. “Of course.”
“First, the poem on the wall mainly depicts farewell at midnight, and both parties were going to be separated by the mountains and ocean. This poem should be written by the bride, implying that her beloved is drifting further away from her.
“The time on the wooden box was a distraction. But what the bride wants to express is that they may never meet again in the future. Midnight marks the beginning of a new day and also the time when the bride’s heart turns cold when she passes away
“There was a note with the directions North, South, East, and West in the wooden box. This corresponds to the second half of the poem on the wall. The bride left this clue mainly because she was reluctant to part with her unborn child. The hollow pattern on the bed was to imply a safe burial for her child and to fulfill the bride’s wish. As for the dagger, it should be the one the bride used to commit suicide.
“In other words, the bride is already dead, and it’s the eldest son of the Valors who has been covering up this fact. The bride we’ve been searching for doesn’t exist anymore. I think she turned into a vengeful ghost and captured Mr. Valor.”
Ace nodded approvingly at her explanation.
Milly was meticulous and smart. Being able to quickly replace clues in the escape room and distinguish between truth and deception showed her great potential.
Still, Ace was a little puzzled. “Your explanation is very good, but why don’t you sound confident?”

miled and answered honestly, “It had nothing to do with confidence. I only played seriously in the first stage. The rest of the challenges were completed by Oliver and Jonathan who kicked down the doors, so I don’t know what the other clues were. I can only guess the whole story.”
Ace was speechless.
Indeed, those two had broken down five doors, each costing 300 dollars. They had to pay the escape room owner 1500 dollars in total later.
Oliver had recovered by now and chimed in smugly, “I single–handedly cleared five stages fast and on point! I’m the MVP”
Milly rubbed her forehead and said helplessly. “You used brutal force instead of your wisdom.”
Oliver protested and pointed at his feet seriously, “Isn’t this wisdom?”
Milly ignored him.
Meanwhile, in the live stream comment section.
“Oliver is so handsome, whatever he says is right. I’m staying here to see who’s going to retort.
Oliver is definitely the MVP of the game. They were not required to replace clues. He’s smart enough to use force! Games are all about unexpected events!”
‘I don’t care. They were super cool when they kicked down the doors!”
‘Am I the only one who noticed Milly’s logical thinking? She’s amazing!”
*I’m a student from XXX University. My professor and I watched the livestream together, and he asked me several times if Milly had just finished the college entrance exam. He kept praising her wisdom.”
I’m totally her fan now! She’s so caring and outstanding.”
Stephanie gritted her teeth and angrily glared at the screen while she read all the comments.
She had also worked hard to replace the clues and it was unfair that the people were only praising Milly who had only cleared one challenge.
At that moment, someone shouted, “I lost something!”
Everyone was shocked including the people who were watching the livestreams.
Jonathan, who was sitting in the back seat, was frantically searching his pockets, even removing his watch and checking it before tossing it aside.
Seeing him in a panic, Ace hurriedly asked, “What did you lose? Is it something important?”
Jonathan kept searching everywhere but to no avail. “Yes, it’s very important!”
Ace became anxious. He had encountered many sudden situations throughout his career, but this was the first time someone lost something during a show.
By Jonathan’s reaction, Ace was sure that the lost item was extraordinarily important.

He quickly explained to the livestream viewers and stopped the broadcast recording.
Ace urgently asked, “Can you recall where you might have lost it?”
Jonathan frowned and thought hard. He had been to many places today.
He clearly remembered putting the small item into his pocket this morning.
Ace asked again, “What did you lose? Maybe we can help you to look for it?”
“It’s…
Jonathan hesitated to speak as he looked at Milly, but he remained silent in the end.
