Chapter 1345: There Is a Gap Between People

Liang Ruoxu felt that despite searching seriously, she could not find anything.

“There are two possibilities.” Lin Yi said.

“Firstly, we missed the clues on the fourth floor because we were on different floors, and that’s why we can’t find anything here. Secondly, as that guy named Pang Yong mentioned, maybe there are no clues here, and we really need to use brute force to open the door. After all, our physical condition is crucial. Even with exceptional skills, we still need a healthy body to support us.”

“It’s over now. There are no clues at all. How can we get out?” Zhao Zhen said.

“In my opinion, there’s no technique to speak of on this level. We have to rely on brute force to open this door,” Pang Yong said.

“Then let’s give it a try,” Ding Wei said reluctantly.

She still believed that it couldn’t be set up this way, there had to be other clues, but they just hadn’t found them yet.

“Brother Pang, I’ll leave this matter to you.” Zhao Zhen laughed and said.

“I’m guessing that with your strength, you can pull the shutter door up with one hand. Hurry up and show them the standard of our country’s second-tier athlete!”

“No problem. Make way.” Pang Yong moved around and said.

“I’ll take care of this.”

“Brother Pang, are you sure you don’t need our help?” another boy asked.

“There’s no need for you to do such a small thing. I can easily settle it myself.” Pang Yong chuckled.

“I’ll take this opportunity to show you my skills.”

Seeing that Pang Yong was about to lift the door, the remaining eight people retreated.

He was a second-tier national athlete. He could lift a barbell that weighed hundreds of kilograms. A mere shutter was nothing to him. There was no need for them to help.

Pang Yong rolled up his sleeves and grabbed the roller shutter with one hand. Then, he exerted all his strength!

The shutter did not move at all.

“Huh?”

Pang Yong was stunned. This was completely different from what he had expected.

It was just a shutter door. At his level, he could easily open it. It was impossible for him to struggle so much!

Moreover, his family ran a car wash, and they had similar doors there. He could easily open them with just one hand, so why was there no reaction at all now?

Pang Yong adjusted his posture. This made it easier for him to exert force.

Then, he used all his strength to pull the tab under the door again.

However, just like before, there was no reaction from the shutters.

At this moment, the scene became quiet.

This method seemed to work perfectly.

“Well…”

Pang Yong looked a little embarrassed. He forced a smile and said,

“Maybe the device inside is rusty. It’s still a little difficult to open it with one hand. I’ll try it with both hands. There should be no issue.”

This time, Pang Yong was serious. He pulled the tab with both hands.

Whoosh!

The shutter rattled slightly, but showed no sign of opening.

“AH!!!!”

Pang Yong roared. His face was red from holding it in. He used all his strength, but the shutter door still did not open.

He tried a few more times, but in the end, Pang Yong’s strength was exhausted and he could not open the door. He could only helplessly say,

“It’s not quite what I expected. The inside should be locked. It’s impossible to open it through brute force.”

“I knew it. There must be a key on this floor,” Ding Wei said.

“This haunted house is for people to play games. It’s not like we’re really here to explore. Why would they set up such a mechanism?”

Pang Yong smiled awkwardly. “Weiwei is right. Let’s go and find some clues.”

The shutter door did not open, so everyone began to search for clues on the fourth floor.

However, Lin Yi and Liang Ruoxu didn’t move. They felt that this wasn’t the problem. They must have left the clues on the previous three floors. It would not be easy to find the solution on the fourth floor.

“Searching like a headless chicken isn’t the solution. Let’s go to the third floor and take a look. We have nothing to do here anyway,” Lin Yi said.

“I’ve seen everything down there. I don’t feel like moving anymore.”

Liang Ruoxu puffed up her cheeks and said. His expression was a little cute.

“Then what should we do? If we keep wasting time here, we might not be able to find the key for a while.”

“Go and try that door. If others can’t open it, maybe you can.”

“I feel like you don’t want to play anymore. You just want to cheat, right?”

Liang Ruoxu smiled playfully.

“It’s just that I just ate a crispy sesame seed cake to fill my stomach. It’s been so long, so my stomach definitely won’t be able to take it much longer.”

“Alright, I’ll give it a try.”

With that, Lin Yi walked in front of the shutter door. He grabbed the tab with one hand and pulled it up.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The shutter door was pulled open, and Lin Yi lifted it into the air.

Hearing the sound, the others who were looking for clues immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at Lin Yi, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

“Little brother, where did you find the key?”

Ding Wei ran over and asked.

As far as she knew, this door could not be opened without a key.

Pang Yong had already tried.

The rest of the people had the same thought, but they didn’t know where Lin Yi found the key.

“I didn’t use a key. I just pulled the door open.”

“Huh? Impossible!” Pang Yong immediately retorted.

“If this door wasn’t locked, it must weigh at least 500 pounds. Even a second-tier athlete like me couldn’t open it. How could you open it with one hand?”

“There’s a difference between people. Don’t ignore this.”

“Stop talking nonsense with me,” Pang Yong said impolitely.

He had no issue with Lin Yi. It was just that he didn’t like him because of Ding Wei.

But now, he had raised the door in public. It was obvious that he was slapping himself in the face. Pang Yong could not tolerate this.

“Even if there’s a difference, it’s because my level is higher than yours! You must have found the key to the mechanism.”

“Exactly!”

Zhao Zhen echoed,

“My Brother Pang is already a national second-tier athlete and has won a medal. He must be stronger than you.”

Boom!

Lin Yi let go of the shutter door.

“Then try it yourself.”

“I’ll give it a try!”

Pang Yong was fearless. The mechanism had already been activated, so what was there to be afraid of?

“Get back!”

Lin Yi retreated, and Pang Yong stood in front of the shutter door. He took a deep breath and prepared to pull the door closed with one hand!

With his figure, he could easily handle it with one hand. At his level, it would definitely be even easier!

After making up his mind, Pang Yong was full of confidence. Then, he held the tab with one hand and poured all his strength into his arm!

He was determined the easily pull it up!

However, reality was harsh.

Pang Yong used all his strength to pull the shutter door.

But!

It did not move at all!
