There were too many potential clues in the room. As a result, they had to eliminate all the unnecessary clues.
Jian Yiling was not in a rush to find the passcode. Instead, she began to observe the room to filter through unnecessary information.
Escape rooms generally followed a storyline. And thus, the clues in this room should relate to the dummy in the first room.
Based on the information from the first room, a newspaper clipping caught Jian Yiling's attention. The newspaper clipping on the bookshelf had a sentence about disembowelment.
Even if someone is dressed up beautifully, if they do not have a conscience, then their stomach will be empty.
The sentence about the empty stomach linked to the dummy in the previous room.
And thus, a person without a conscience was likely to be a clue for this room.
Then, Jian Yiling searched the study desk. There was a thick stack of notes on the study desk.
