[City of Romance]

[Episode 13]

Why are you back?

Why didn't you turn on the lights?

I'm back to fetch something.

Mom.

Why did you have time to come back today?

I need to attend a seminar tomorrow.

I'm also back to fetch something.

Are you staying here tonight?

No.

I'll leave after I get my things.

I have an appointment with them tomorrow.

I've heard that some juniors

have already started internships.

Why don't you also work as an intern at your father's company?

Ask him to arrange it for you.

No need.

You don't want to go?

Well, how about

being an intern at the psychiatric department of our hospital?

If not, just prepare for the postgraduate entrance exam.

Mom, I have my own plans.

Bai, look.

This place has quite a high rating. [In the Bloom of Youth]

[In the Bloom of Youth] And there are many themes,

including the Chinese style theme

and the ancient mansion theme.

Xiaomiao.

I'm scared.

In that case, you can ask Senior Su to protect you.

What nonsense are you talking about?

Senior.

What are you two chatting about? You seem so happy.

To celebrate the comic club winning an award,

we're going to play the Room Escape game tomorrow.

The Room Escape game?

Just the two of you?

All the members of our comic club will go.

Senior Yu will go, too.

Senior, you can join us if you're free.

Oh, right. I need to confirm it with our President at once

to decide which theme we'll play.

We need to make a reservation with the shop manager in advance.

Okay. But don't choose one that is too scary.

Will Su Yancheng go too?

He's our President.

Of course he'll go.

He has to go even if he doesn't want to.

Well, as I'll be free tomorrow,

I want to go, too.

Okay.

If we play the Room Escape game tomorrow,

which garment should I wear?

I've bought a new hat.

I'm going to wear purple clothes tomorrow.

Then I'll wear yellow clothes.

[Episode 13: Panic]

[Old Story of the Ancient Mansion]

[Old Story of the Ancient Mansion] Bai.

[Old Story of the Ancient Mansion] You're here.

[Old Story of the Ancient Mansion] Hurry up. Get on the bus.

[Old Story of the Ancient Mansion] Sit anywhere you like.

[Old Story of the Ancient Mansion] Okay. I'll wait for you.

[Immersive Secret Room Escape Experience]

Over here, over here!

Chopper, Hua Dao,

You're here so early.

Why aren't you getting on the bus?

I didn't sleep well last night.

Are you selling tickets here?

I slept pretty well.

Senior, get on the bus.

Okay.

Sit anywhere you like.

Have you been waiting for him specifically?

Is it really necessary?

Senior He Rui, you look really beautiful today.

Thank you.

Get on the bus now.

Are you crazy?

I'll sit here.

Is everyone here?

[Immersive Secret Room Escape Experience] There's still one person who hasn't arrived.

[Immersive Secret Room Escape Experience]

Hurry up. We're about to set off.

I'm apt to get carsick.

Do you mind if I sit here?

Xiaoduo, let's switch seats.

I want to talk to Xiaomiao about something.

Alright.

How come you always have so much to say every day?

Come on. Come over here.

Okay.

Xiaoduo, why don't you sit here?

I'll sit here.

He's such a clueless guy.

Xiaomiao,

I actually guessed you'd wear this outfit today.

Look.

So you like purple, too?

But will this Room Escape game be too difficult?

Don't worry. I'm good at this.

How reliable.

Will this Room Escape game be very scary?

Xiaomiao, let's play it together then.

Okay.

I'm very bold.

[Jia's Mansion]

Are you sure this is the place?

Is it still possible to ask the driver

to come back now?

Don't be a coward.

Young people,

you shouldn't enter a place like this.

If you always come to such places,

don't say that I didn't warn you.

Then how about we go back first?

We've already paid the money.

We'll suffer great losses if we don't go inside.

Xiaomiao.

Don't be afraid. I'm here.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Let's go. I'll protect you.

What are you doing?

Everyone, welcome to Jia's Ancient Mansion.

Rumor has it that

this place is a haunted house.

But only you guys

can uncover the truth

and dispel the rumor of the haunted house.

Are you willing to accept this challenge?

No!

Great!

Thank you very much for your willingness to help us.

If His Lordship,

Her Ladyship and Young Master

know about this in the netherworld,

I'm sure they'll be very happy.

There are quite many deceased members in your family.

Since it happened during the era of the Republic of China,

it's not surprising.

Then how come he's still alive?

You must be the murderer.

Nonsense!

I'm very loyal to the Jia Family.

My master, as well as his wife and son,

all died by suicide.

When the police came and investigated it,

they made the same conclusion.

The... The geomancy of this house is really bad.

Don't talk nonsense.

Guys, then please go back to that era

and help us find the truth.

However, before going back to that era,

please leave all items that don't belong to that era

outside the room.

Hand over your mobile phones to me.

Alright, everyone.

Draw lots.

Oh, right.

Our young master also has a secret chamber.

But no one knows where it is.

Good luck to you all.

What are inside this bag?

Balls.

Great, Su Yancheng. We're in the same group.

Come on. Let's go solve the mystery.

Wait, wait, wait.

I don't think this division of the groups is fair.

Look. In Chopper's group,

no one is bold.

Why don't we switch?

Xiaomiao is bold.

But it's dangerous for her to be the only girl in the group.

Let's... Let's switch, okay?

Do me a favor, Bro.

Well, I also don't want to be a third wheel.

I'll buy you breakfast for a month. Please.

Wash my socks for a month, too.

Deal.

He's right. I think it's fair in this way.

Let's go.

Let's go, let's go.

Let's go.

Yu Shubo.

Come here and check the top of this shelf to see

whether there are some clues.

I can't reach it.

Let me take a look.

Are you alright?

I might have gotten hurt.

But fortunately, you saved me.

Come on. Let's read it.

A child tugged at my clothes and asked me

why I was back home so late.

With whom did I compete for time? In the end, I only won these gray hairs.

Recorded on my child's death anniversary.

This is Du Mu's poem "Returning Home."

It's about a child longing for his father to come home.

But his father had to work

away from home to make a living.

There's a box here.

It has a lock on it.

I think the death anniversary date might be the password.

What's the date of the child's death anniversary?

It's not written here.

There should be more clues. Let's keep looking.

There seems to be something inside that bed.

I'll go check it out.

I think this is the master's diary.

But in his diary,

he only wrote about things like whom he did business with

in the morning and what he ate in the afternoon.

There's no mention of the death anniversary, either.

The last page is dated Gengchen Day, Wushen Month, Dingmao Year.

The last page is dated Gengchen Day, Wushen Month, Dingmao Year. [Holograph]

The last page is dated Gengchen Day, Wushen Month, Dingmao Year.

August 14, 1927.

How did you figure that out? [Holograph]

That's not right.

Then let's try August 15.

Perhaps after this young master died,

his father didn't have the mood to keep a diary anymore.

That makes sense.

Eight-one-five.

It's open.

You're impressive.

You're really something.

What information did you find?

A longevity lock.

Senior,

shall we go inside and take a look?

Yes.

Really?

I've told you that I'm very bold.

I'll go.

It's alright, it's alright.

This is just a fake spider.

It's fake.

It's fake.

It's alright.

There's a box here.

But...

I can't open it.

It seems that we need a key.

Shall we look for the key?

Okay.

There's nothing inside.

Chopper, help me hold the light.

[Dad]

[Dad] I got it.

It's to put them together to constitute the characters.

[Dad]

Dad, Mom.

[Dad] [Not]

[Dad] [Not] [Me]

Love

me

or not?

So you found it?

Can we be together because of love?

It's alright, it's alright.

It's fake.

It's alright.

It's alright.

We've looked into it.

This family seemed quite happy.

So why did something like that happen?

The master of this family didn't seem to

indulge in debauchery outside, either.

His wife

just went out to play mahjong frequently.

Moreover,

we found a wind chime with a riddle

in one of the rooms.

It says, "Do Dad and Mom love me or not?"

It looks like

the members of this family didn't get along very well.

I think

their young master might have been killed in a crime of passion.

How was that possible?

Their family genealogy clearly states that

the young master passed away at the age of only seven.

Is that so?

Yes.

Well, then...

Don't you think

it's a bit strange that

this cabinet is here?

No, I don't think so.

Dad, Mom, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, kid.

I didn't mean to disturb you.

I... I... I... I...

Senior.

I... I... I...

Are you alright, Senior?

I'm fine.

Senior.

I... I... I... I'm very bold.

You... You...

Hurry up!

Hurry up! Hurry up!

Let's close the door!

Don't be afraid.

Hurry up.

Come inside now!

Hurry up, hurry up!

Or you'll be caught later.

Chopper?

Gosh! What a coincidence to run into you in such a big secret chamber.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Shall we go check on the others?

We're not familiar with the map of this ancient mansion.

Let's stay here and look for clues first.

I'm exhausted.

Oh, my God!

This is definitely a homicide.

Definitely!

Come out!

Come out!

This is my room!

Come out!

Since you guys are not coming out,

then never come out!

What is he shouting?

He's telling us not to go out.

Su Yancheng.

Is this stuff shaking?

It's okay. It's just a mechanism.

This is definitely a homicide.

What do you think?

Senior.

Senior.

Senior Xiao Yang.

Senior. Senior Xiao Yang.

Oh, no.

Is he so scared that he's stupefied?

Senior, wake up!

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that.

Senior!

Senior! Senior!

You...

Xiaomiao.

Actually, I...

I'm very bold.

No one is ahead, right?

It's quite scary.

Oh. my God.

This must be the secret chamber the butler mentioned.

It's locked.

I closed it.

I can't believe you.

There must be another exit.

Let's look for it.

Okay.

There are pictures here.

Su Yancheng.

Look.

Let's go and examine them.

A little boy.

A family portrait.

A birthday cake.

The little boy seems quite pitiful.

He celebrated his birthday alone.

But what does this have to do with this case?

Su Yancheng.

Su Yancheng.

Su Yancheng.

What's wrong with you?

I'm thinking whether 0711

is some kind of password.

Password.

It's possible.

There's a door over there. Let's go check it out.

This is not right. It seems we need a key for it.

Hold this for me.

It's that easy.

Let's go.

I knew it.

My Lady, are you here?

I'll go.

My Lady, please open the door.

I think the door should be opened by a female player.

Then...

Then what should we do?

It's okay. I'll go.

[IOU]

[3rd, Lunar April, 1929]

[IOU]

I didn't expect that though the Jia Family

seemed so wealthy,

they would have quite many external debts.

Let me take a look.

With your leg like that,

why don't you rest for a while?

You even dare to eat the fruits here?

Let's just fill our stomachs first.

Are you injured?

No, I'm not.

Why... Why are you touching me?

I'm not touching you.

I'm eating a tangerine. It's quite sweet.

What's wrong?
