After a while, the man spoke again.
“Can you guys come to my side? We can discuss other matters once you’re here.”
Upon hearing this, the three of them naturally couldn’t refuse. They had been in this room for too long, and they indeed wanted to leave.
However, after a while, they spoke somewhat uncomfortably.
“We really don’t know how to leave this room.”
“Yeah, we’ve been in this room for a long time already and have searched for many clues, but we haven’t found anything or any mechanism to leave.”
“How did you get there in the first place? Can you help us? Maybe if we help each other, we can leave this miserable place.”
The three of them talked, hoping that the man could help them under such circumstances.
Upon hearing this, the man thought for a moment before nodding gently.
“I can help you, but I’m also very unfamiliar with this environment. When I was brought here, my eyes were covered with a black cloth, so I don’t know how I got in.”
Although they didn’t know what had happened to him before, they were deeply moved by his words.
It seemed that they were all in miserable situations, and it wasn’t easy to get through.
But at least there were people on the other side, unlike earlier when they were isolated and helpless.
So after careful consideration, Yigol finally spoke to the man.
“It’s okay, don’t worry. Just take a good look around you and see what’s there. Maybe it can give us some clues.”
But after hearing this, the man fell silent for a while before finally speaking helplessly.
“But there’s no light here at all; I can’t see anything around me. It’s pitch-black, and I can’t even see my own fingers.”
Upon hearing this, they finally realized that it was indeed difficult to see anything in the dark room they had entered.
If it weren’t for the flashlight they had, they wouldn’t have been able to hold on like this.
If that was the case, then he couldn’t help them in that room either.
For a moment, everyone felt very uncomfortable, not knowing what to do.
They thought that they had finally found a living person who might help them, but it wasn’t as simple as they had imagined.
“Right, I almost forgot about that.”
Price scratched the back of his head in annoyance, his thoughts a mess.
At this point, the man couldn’t help but ask.
“Do you guys have any lights there? How can you see clearly?”
He had been in the next room all this time and was thrilled to hear someone come in, but when he suddenly thought of the possibility that those people might be the ones who locked him in, he became somewhat cautious.
So he didn’t say anything when he heard the noises but observed carefully for a while and realized they were not the ones who had locked him in before finally responding to them.
Then Suri Drew told him the real reason without hesitation.
“We have a flashlight.”
Upon hearing this, the man finally understood why they could see clearly: they had something to illuminate their surroundings.
But he had to admit that he was delighted about it.
He initially thought he would spend his entire life locked here, waiting to die, but it seemed God had granted him a chance. How could he not consider this a good thing?
So at this moment, he was determined to seize this opportunity.
He knew what to do anyhow; with these people, he might be able to leave this place with them.
“I’m sorry, I don’t know how to get you guys here or how to go there myself. You might need to figure that out on your own.”
Upon hearing this, the three of them could only shake their heads helplessly and glance at each other.
It seemed that they had to figure it out by themselves now, as others couldn’t be of much help.
However, finding a solution at this moment wasn’t an easy task.
The light in Suri’s eyes gradually faded.
She immediately turned her gaze to the two people in front of her and asked,
“What do you think we should do now? I have no idea what to do.”
Upon hearing this, the two people beside her naturally shared her feelings.
They too shook their heads helplessly.
“Indeed, we’ve done everything we could, but we still can’t find any mechanism.”
At this moment, Price seemed to have thought of something, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes. Excitedly pounding on the wall, he exclaimed,
“Could it be here?”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked puzzled, wondering what he meant by that.
Not only that, their eyes naturally turned towards the wall he was pointing at.
“What’s going on? We’ve already searched this wall thoroughly, but we haven’t found anything meaningful.”
Suri furrowed her brows, not understanding why Price was so worked up all of a sudden.
Even Yigol found it very strange and wondered what was going on with Price.
“Yeah, we just searched here thoroughly, but we didn’t find anything. Did you make a mistake?”
However, to everyone’s surprise, the light in Price’s eyes not only didn’t disappear but became even brighter.
He shook his head solemnly and said,
“Did you guys forget? The man’s voice we just heard came from this side, so there must be a mechanism in this wall.”
Upon hearing this, they finally came to their senses and nodded in realization.
