Congratulations on Your Successful EscapeChapter 6

The circular light from the flashlight swayed in the hallway and it looked ghostly in the dense darkness.

The uniform sounds of footsteps echoed in the empty corridor. Even though the bright lights from the classrooms were still on, it could not prevent the malice from seeping out of its bones. bJlHk3

Mo Yi kept walking and stepped into an area without lights. The palm holding the flashlight was sweaty, but he was unexpectedly calm.

From behind him, a lightbulb made a “zizi” sound.

Mo Yi suddenly stopped.

Jiang Yuanbai, who was walking behind him, almost ran into his back. As if he was afraid of alarming something, he courageously asked in a low voice, “… What’s the matter?” UoSI4v

Mo Yi waved the flashlight and motioned for him to come and have a look.

Jiang Yuanbai moved his head from behind Mo Yi bit by bit and looked in the direction of the flashlight and froze.

The corridor in front of them was unremarkable, except for the lack of light, it was almost identical to the other end of the corridor.

There was nothing extraordinary as he had imagined!

He scratched his head in a daze, walked forward, and pressed his palm on the wall at the end of the corridor. The damp cold touch spread out along his skin. Jiang Yuanbai was confused and whispered in a low voice, “…No, it shouldn’t be.”

u1ArCs

Did they understand something wrong?

At this time, Jiang Yuanbai was shocked by a loud “crash” from behind him. Before he could turn around, he only heard Mo Yi’s voice ringing in his ear, “Get out of the way.”

Jiang Yuanbai subconsciously stepped aside.

A strong gust of wind hit him. Mo Yi, holding a fire axe in his hand, smashed the wall with an unflinching posture. After hitting the wall twice, the axe blade “clanged” deeply into the wall and smashed through. The sound of earth and rock crackling sounded. 8nx2A9

From the angle where Jiang Yuanbai stood, he could just see the metal reflection of an iron door behind the brick wall.

… Puff. nl3Hxy

Jiang Yuanbai did his best to stop himself from laughing at the boss’s efforts.

He coughed a few times and reached for the axe in Mo Yi’s hand and held back the laughter in his voice, “Cough, why don’t you let me try next.”

Mo Yi was bent at the waist, and he nodded weakly.

Jiang Yuanbai took the axe and smashed it against the same place Mo Yi did. The bricks under his hand were weak and seemed to be newly built. After a while, a large area had been broken open, “Brother Mo, you really need to exercise properly.” QdSM6x

Mo Yi, “… You can keep smashing your wall.”

If he manages to clear the game, he must apply for an annual fitness card.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Jiang Yuanbai’s progress was fast and within minutes, he had cracked a gap into the wall that was large enough for the two men to pass through. He tried to reach out and push the door, and there was almost no resistance. The iron door silently opened in the dark, revealing a pitch-black entrance.

Mo Yi was also feeling better at the moment and turned on his flashlight. Jiang Yuanbai nodded and the two walked in together. 84oJge

A cold and moist smell blew across his face, and Mo Yi couldn’t help coughing. It was as if several months of plum rain had been concentrated in this room. The smell in the whole corridor seemed to be emanating from here.

The flashlight’s light flickered.

Mo Yi’s eyes wandered around the room and couldn’t help but reveal a hint of surprise.

In the small room, there were several dusty shelves on which old, yellowed pages were piled up into mountains. The smell of rotten paper emanated from them, making people almost unable to breath. hSPt5d

It looked like it should be an abandoned archive room.

Why was it sealed? And wasn’t it a bit extreme to build a wall to hide it?

Mo Yi carefully went deeper into the room, his shoes raising a pile of dust that had long accumulated. He turned to Jiang Yuanbai and said “Let’s split up. You can look over there to see what useful information is available. We must be fast. We don’t have much time.”

Jiang Yuanbai apparently also thought of the 45-minute time limit and solemnly nodded. He fished out a flashlight from his backpack and walked to the other end of the archive. 0qRz1w

Mo Yi went in the opposite direction. As he walked, he searched through the files on the shelf.

Perhaps because of the humidity, most of the paper files were rotten and stuck together, and only some vague handwriting could be barely distinguished. Mo Yi was in a dilemma and looked at the material in front of him helplessly.

He frowned, a little troubled, and looked up to one side. At this moment, Mo Yi’s eyes fell to one spot on the shelf and stopped.

A small piece of iron was nailed to the side of the shelf. Although it was rusty, the writing on it was still recognizable. Mo Yi looked at it carefully and found that it read, ‘93. gZyJOa

An idea hit him.

Mo Yi felt some fear in his heart, but also some excitement. His violent heartbeat pounded in his eardrum in the silence.

He walked out of the gap between the shelves and briskly checked the small iron pieces nailed to each shelf, from ‘89, ‘90 … until ‘95.

Well, this archive should have been closed after 95 years. DhBWdj

Mo Yi recalled the graduation photo he saw on the first floor. The date on it was exactly ‘95.

Since the classrooms on each floor were the same, could it be considered that … the whole school had closed down at the same time. That is, the graduates of 1995 went to school and left, and the second batch of students happened to enter the third year of high school this year!

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Mo Yi held his breath.

And the class that entered the third year of high school in 1995 … happened to be the class of students who entered in 1993! He finally figured out another one of the hints given before the game started! 993, footless swallow. If he guessed right, 933 refers to Class 3 of year ’93! nhR PG

—— The classroom where the corpses appeared happened to be in Class 3.

Blood surged into his heart, and Mo Yi dashed to the archive shelf that said, “93”.

Sure enough, at the bottom of the shelf, under the countless rotten pages, there was a folder in perfect condition.

As if it was not affected by the years of moisture, the pages were still white and looked brand new. VLxZak

All of a sudden, a piercing scream rang out.

It was coming from the corridor!

Mo Yi didn’t hesitate. He grabbed the folder in a hurry, put it under his armpit, and ran out.

After walking out of the archive room, the scream had disappeared, and the silence in the school was alarming. Mo Yi looked out the window: 3:32. JfMQR2

There were 12 minutes left until the bell rang.

Jiang Yuanbai also ran out from behind him, his face panicked, “What’s the matter? What happened?”

Before Mo Yi could answer, he raised his head and sniffed. He frowned and muttered to him, “Do you think the smell of blood is much heavier?”

Mo Yi was stunned. Yes, the smell of blood in the air had become much heavier, but he was too concerned about the time and didn’t notice. 6DkxzL

His eyes narrowed and he walked quickly to the door of Class 3 and looked inside.

Sure enough, there was another corpse.

He sat right in front of the podium, staring at Mo Yi with gray and dull eyes. For some reason, he looked very short. Mo Yi looked down under the table, and he couldn’t help but gasp.

He was missing from the waist down. ytGsDA

Half of his intestines flowed down the chair leg, and the pool of blood rapidly grew larger. His hand was placed under his waist in a half empty hold, as if he wanted to prevent his body from splitting open.

Translator's Note

This is referring to the last chapter. Jiang Yuanbai thought that there would be something strange/a clue somewhere in the corridor because the people in the photo were pointing in this direction. However, it seems like there’s nothing special.

Translator's Note

Plum rain (梅雨) refers to when it rains mid June to early July each year in East Asia. The wet environment promotes the growth of mold.

  1. This has been super exciting so far! I wonder what happened?

    Thanks for the chapter! (:3」z)

  2. I love the author’s style of writing xD makes me feel goosebumps.

    Tenchu for the chapter ♡

  3. I hope he brings that axe with him. As long as these ghosts have substance, it’ll come in handy.

  4. I would probably look for the school office or something and search for the school book or year book and then boom! let Mo Yi do the work HAHAHAHAHAH

  5. I would never survive an infinite stream horror sequence, I may not be dumb, but I sure do suck at riddles and gathering clues.
