Other than the paper that recorded the information about the Xin clan, Feng Bujue did not find anything else of value in Arthur's bedroom. Even though he had searched the place twice already, he still found nothing.
Therefore, he could only leave with a sigh and go to the bathroom.
The bathroom on the second floor was twice the size of the toilet on the first floor. There was a small cupboard above the sink. It was the kind of white wooden cupboard that often appeared in horror movies. It was placed higher than the human eye could see, and there was a mirror attached to the cupboard. Inside it were shavers, toothpaste, cups, common medicine, and so on.
In all kinds of horror movies, we can see characters brushing their teeth, shaving their beards, combing their hair, and so on in front of these little cupboards. Then, as the cupboard door opened and closed, something scary would suddenly appear in the mirror. Coupled with the frightening sound effects, this was a tried and tested scenario.
Unfortunately, there was no mirror in this scenario.
Feng Bujue walked to the sink. Looking at the cupboard door that had sunk in about one centimeter, he sighed. "They took the mirror apart … and left nothing behind."
He opened the cupboard, and all the layers were empty. Only the bottommost layer had a key lying alone.
Name: White Key
Type: Plot Item
Quality: Normal
Function: Unlocks the white iron door permanently. Disappears after use.
Can be taken out of the scenario: No
Remark: It was hidden in a white place.
"Currently, I have four keys: red, blue, black, and white." Feng Bujue mumbled. "Only yellow and gray are left?" His eyes involuntarily wandered to the toilet.
"Hmm … I should take a look at the water tank." He walked quickly to the toilet bowl and glanced into it to make sure that there was nothing but clean water. Then he pulled the lid off the water tank to inspect, and there was indeed something inside.
[Name: Soaked Blanket]
Type: Plot Item
Quality: Normal
Function: Unknown
Can be taken out of the scenario: Yes
Remark: For some reason, it was stuffed in a strange place.
This was a relatively small blanket, about the size of four or five towels spread out. The color was mottled, and the texture was slightly rough to the touch. After soaking it in water, the feeling was strange, and the surface was a little slippery.
"This is already the fifth plot item that can be taken out of the scenario." Feng Bujue removed the blanket from the water tank and tried his best to wring it dry before placing it inside his inventory. "Other than the set of fake teeth that came with hints related to the plot, the rest of the soap, perfume, leather hat, and this blanket are all useless …" He could not help but ask himself, "Could it be that this scenario is unique because it has so many puzzles?"
Feng Bujue put away the items and turned to the bathtub on the other side of the wall. There was also a shower curtain hanging above the bathtub, just enough to surround it. At this time, from Feng Bujue's point of view, only a quarter of the bathtub was exposed, the rest was covered by the light blue shower curtain.
"Okay, let's guess what's inside the bathtub. A, a naked beauty; B, a naked key; C, a naked body." Feng Bujue said with a self-deprecating tone. "If it's empty or filled with trash, that would be so boring."
He reached out to pull the curtain back and saw something. It was something that would make one feel extremely depressed and scary.
"Is this a human swine?" Feng Bujue frowned.
The thing inside the bathtub should be a synthetic human. It only had a torso, and its limbs had been amputated. Its ears were festering, and pus was leaking out from them. Its eyes were sewn shut, and its mouth was half-open, making it impossible to see its tongue. Considering its condition, it probably did not know that someone was looking at it, so at that moment, it merely lay quietly inside the bathtub without any reaction. Only the rise and fall of its chest proved that it was still alive and breathing.
Feng Bujue did not hesitate. He took out Persephone's Vacuum Cleaner and started to suck the monster's blood …
The special effect of this equipment was: Drain a monster's Life Points and recover the player's Life Points at the same rate. (The absorption rate is 0.5% per second. It is ineffective on dead, non-corporeal, Mechanic, and Boss-level monsters. The vacuum cleaner cannot store Life Points, and the absorption effect is instantaneous. If the player's Life Points are full when it is used, it will not be recovered.)
This thing would not cause much pain, but it would reduce the monster's Life Points proportionally, and at the same time, it would be added to the player. When the monster's Life Points were depleted, it would die instantly.
From various perspectives, Feng Bujue thought this was a win-win situation. The enemy would be unknowingly released, and he would be able to recover some Life Points.
Three minutes later, the synthetic human was declared dead, and Feng Bujue's Life Points were full.
He placed his palms together and chanted, "Amitabha …" Then he picked up the wrench and slit open the synthetic human's throat. Then he started to search the body.
An atheist who was praying for God and praying for Buddha was dissecting a body that might not even be human anymore with no expression on his face, just to confirm whether there was something he needed inside the body … If there were other players watching this, they would have been spooked by Brother Jue.
"It's really here …" Finally, Feng Bujue got his wish and found the yellow key inside the body's intestines.
He used the wrench to clamp the key and walked to the sink to rinse it clean. Then he placed it inside his inventory. Two seconds later, he took out the key and placed it inside his pocket. Theoretically speaking, after doing that, there should not be any substance left on the key, but Feng Bujue was still only willing to touch it with gloves on.
Item Name: Yellow Key
Item Type: Plot Item
Quality: Normal
Function: Permanently unlocks the yellow iron door. Disappears after use.
Can be taken out of the scenario: No
Remark: It was indeed hidden in a place with feces.
Feng Bujue was too lazy to comment on this remark; it was no different from mockery.
Now, he only needed one gray key, so he could gather six and kill his way back to the underground 1F. Therefore, he picked up his pace. After washing away the dirt that had splashed on his clothes, he walked to the last explorable room on the second floor.
This room was directly above the empty room on the first floor. Feng Bujue pushed open the door, and he saw a bright red, large alchemy circle on the floor of the room.
After taking a glance at it, he lost control of his body. This time, he did not even have the time to use the iron rod to check whether there was any danger or even step into the room … Just the act of opening the door had triggered the cinematic.
