"What does the owl mean?"

Rahman hasn't figured out the mystery yet, but as the experienced chosen ones, they all have one characteristic.

That is, if you can't figure something out, look for clues instead of just guessing.

Time passed slowly. Except for the team leader and his girlfriend who were still drinking with the middle-aged man in the living room, everyone else left the living room one after another.

The prickly-haired young man and the bun-haired girl quietly came to Rahman's room.

Rahman also shared the information he had just obtained.

After hearing the information from Owl, both teammates were confused.

They could not see a single bird, let alone an owl.

Do I have to draw an owl on the wall myself?
"Let's search the rooms on the first floor first to see if there are any hidden rooms."

Rahman suggested a rather stupid method.

But this was the only way for now, and the three of them began to explore the first floor.

Half an hour later, something new happened in the living room.

The team leader had no excuse to continue dragging the middle-aged man, so he returned to the second floor.

Reeking of alcohol, he was still reminding the expedition team members that it was very cold in the mountains at night and asked everyone to go to bed early.

The team leader agreed readily, and after the middle-aged man left, he also came to Rahman's room and asked if he had found any clues.

Rahman lied here. He couldn't have said that the paralyzed old lady told him the information, which would have directly triggered the rules for the leader to attack them.

He just said that he tricked the little girl into telling her parents not to enter a room with an owl and to wash their faces with cold water if they felt cold at night.

The team leader here would definitely not confront the little girl, so he could only believe whatever Rahman said.

"So did you find the room with the owl?"

The leader's words silenced everyone in the room.

The house is so small that apart from four guest rooms, there is only a living room, kitchen and bathroom on the first floor.

They all went to check, but couldn't find the owl.

It was already 1:12 in the morning, and the clock on the wall of Rahman's room was ticking.

At this stage, the thorny young man suddenly said, "It's strange, it seems that the clock on the wall of my room is broken and has never moved."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rahman and the team leader widened their eyes at the same time.

They looked at each other, with a bold guess in their minds.

Could it be that the owl was referring to?
Thinking of this, the two of them quickly walked towards the room of the rebellious young man.

The others didn't understand what they were going to do, but followed them.

The team leader drank too much and was indeed feeling a little dizzy, and was still gasping for breath.

Rahman found a stool and was checking the 'broken' clock on the wall.

Sure enough, there is a square "wooden door" right above the clock.

Use tools to open the wooden door and you can see an owl inside.

If Rahman guessed correctly, the clock in the prickly young man's room should be a cuckoo clock.

On the hour, the owl would pop out from the wooden door and make some noises.

That means that the couple will not enter his room, and they can only survive the night in his room.

Hearing this, the thorny young man suddenly said, "It was that couple who broke it, right?"

Rahman and the team leader were too lazy to talk to him. The girl with a bun next to him explained, "No, it should be the people who used to live in this house. They thought it was too noisy and stopped it. Fortunately, they only stopped it and didn't break it. We just need to fix the clock."

It's such a simple truth, but even the rebellious young people can't understand it.

I really don't know how he managed to survive to this day with his IQ.

Rahman even thought: If this troublesome young man had not received the care of other Chosen Ones, he would have died. After complaining for a while, Rahman continued to work.

The next difficulty is how to find a suitable reason to get everyone to come to this room.

The only ones who don’t know the truth yet are the team leader’s girlfriend and the girl who lives in the same room with the girl with the bun.

At this moment everyone was thinking, either 'sacrifice' one person, otherwise it would seem too fake.

The team leader will definitely take care of his girlfriend, so the only one who can be sacrificed is the girl who lives in the same room with the girl with the bun.

"I don't think it's necessary. If we sacrifice one of them and we remain indifferent the next day, wouldn't that be like telling the couple that we already know the rules here?
So who should we sacrifice on the second day, the day after? "

Rahman's question is indeed very sharp, but now no one cares because it is not themselves who are being sacrificed.

If that day really comes, I'm afraid the teammates will turn against each other.

Some teammates even choose to harm other teammates in order to survive.

Rahman said this to remind his teammates that everyone must advance and retreat together in order to have cohesion.

Even though the other three teammates seem weird, they are in the same camp unless their identities are discovered.

In any case, Rahman must find a way to preserve the number of teammates so as to avoid being hurt.

But after he said this, his other teammates looked at him with a higher regard.

Who doesn’t like such a responsible and accountable teammate?
Even if Rahman might be pretending, at least he pretended convincingly.

Not long after, the remaining two girls also came to the room of the rebellious young man.

After learning the truth, they were indeed a little nervous, but not so scared that they were at a loss.

This is the normal reaction of the 'natives' of the world of ghost stories.

As for the reasons why everyone stayed in this house, Rahman felt that he had to think about it himself. The reasons these people came up with all had some problems.

Some said they were holding a birthday party for the troublemaker, while others said the troublemaker was pretending to be sick and they would take care of him.

None of this was enough to keep so many people in his room all night.

The reason must combine these two points.

Rahman said, "Who of you has cards or chess? Let's play cards or chess all night long."

This reason is not perfect, but it is enough to cope with the homeowner.

The tour leader’s girlfriend immediately raised her hand, indicating that she had a card, and skillfully took it out from her luggage.

Rahman and the girl with the bun went to the toilet to fetch a few basins of water and hid them under the bed of the prickly-haired young man.

To be on the safe side, I put a lot of mineral water in the bottles.

Next, it will depend on the predictive ability of the chosen ones.

It is to anticipate unexpected events that may happen.

Rahman was thinking, their excuse is playing cards.

If I were weird, how could I stop these people from playing cards?
Obviously, there is no light.

The light switch was in the room of the rebellious young man, but no one present knew where the power switch of the house was.

So Rahman prepared candles and flashlights in advance as lighting equipment.

After doing all this, several people started to play cards in the room of the troublemaker, and even started playing a punishment game.

It looked like a bunch of energetic young people having fun.

But at 2 o'clock in the morning, with a "click", the lights on the ceiling of the room suddenly went out, the temperature dropped sharply, and people shivered involuntarily.

At this moment, outside the crack of the door, there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at them quietly.

The eyes flashed with a faint green light, looming in the darkness!
