Chapter 88 64.5 Floor (Ch 88)

The cold wind was biting.

Zhou Ke stepped lightly on the outside of the building, held the rope tightly, and slowly climbed up.

This is an altitude of more than 200 meters. At this moment, if there is a person with acrophobia in Zhou Ke’s situation, if he looks down, he would probably faint on the spot.

But Zhou Ke’s movements were very familiar.

Moving up little by little, under the cover of night, he climbed to a position above the 64th floor and below the 65th floor.

Looking inside through the glass on the 64th floor, one can see some ordinary office building decorations.

Looking through the glass on the 65th floor, you can see rows of human juicers.

Only the layer between the two floors is empty and has nothing in it.

Yes, this is the only hidden layer in the entire building——

64.5 floors.

Bang!!!

Glass fragments fell one after another.

Zhou Ke exerted force on his feet, smashed the window on the 64.5th floor, and jumped inside!

After landing, Zhou Ke immediately stood up and hid in the corner.

Then he looked around cautiously.

There is no light here, and since it is already dark, you can’t see your hand in front of you.

Zhou Ke quietly took out his cell phone and turned on the flashlight.

This floor was a hidden floor just as he expected, so there were almost no facilities inside.

Even the walls are not decorated at all and still look like reinforced concrete.

Zhou Ke held his phone tightly and looked around as he walked forward.

This floor is quite empty.

There is nothing there except a small platform box in the middle.

It seems that this is the location of the four-sided stone.

Zhou Ke approached slowly and cautiously.

After approaching the platform, Zhou Ke was finally able to take a closer look at the small box.

The small box looks very delicate, with hollow patterns carved on it.

Zhou Ke suppressed his excitement and looked around the box carefully.

Generally speaking, in movies, there are various anti-theft devices or anti-theft mechanisms near such boxes.

However, Zhou Ke checked and did not find any similar devices.

In the end, Zhou Ke had to come to a conclusion:

This is just an ordinary box without any protection.

So simple?

The four-sided stone is so simply hidden in this box?

But Zhou Ke soon let it go.

Any high-tech anti-theft device may be of little use to a thief holding a magic card.

The hidden 64.5 layers are the biggest camouflage guarantee for the four-sided stone.

And this secret was cracked by Zhou Ke.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ke no longer hesitated and immediately reached out to open the small box.

!

There’s nothing inside.

Empty.

Zhou Ke’s first reaction was that the four-sided stone had been stolen by someone in advance.

But he quickly dismissed the idea.

Because the inside of the box was covered with dust, it didn’t look like anything had been stored there.

Just as Zhou Ke was thinking, the box suddenly spoke.

This is an emotionless mechanical voice:

[If you want to find what you are looking for, tell the truth about it. ]

【Three chances left. 】

!

When Zhou Ke heard this, he reacted immediately.

This is the anti-theft device of the four-sided stone.

It’s like a combination lock.

But the classic combination lock is easy to crack, so the Ye family chose to use a vague question instead of a password.

The meaning of this question is very clear after translation:

If you want to find the Four-sided Stone, you must tell the truth about it.

I believe Ye Ding knows the answer to this question.

But Zhou Ke didn’t have time to run back and torture Ye Ding to force him to give the answer.

Delay will lead to chaos.

Therefore, it is better for Zhou Ke to solve this problem alone.

The truth about the four-sided stone…

The first thing that came to Zhou Ke’s mind was the rumor—

The tetrahedron does not exist at all.

Both the master and the nobles who had a meeting with Ye Ding once thought so.

But the Skull of the Prophet clearly told Zhou Ke that the four-sided stone was in the Ye family company building.

Zhou Ke looked at the following [Three chances left.]

“Oh, three times, who are you looking down on?”

“I’ll waste it first.”

“The four-sided stone does not exist.”

【Wrong answer, two chances left. 】

Zhou Ke’s mouth curled up.

The reason why he used this opportunity was because Zhou Ke wanted to confirm that the four-sided stone was a real thing and that the Skull of the Prophet did not deceive him.

Second, Zhou Ke already had the correct answer in his mind.

During a meeting, Ye Ding once said this with great confidence:

[The Four-sided Stone is in the Financial Building, but not on any “first floor”.]

Zhou Ke has been around all kinds of people since he was a child, and has developed a skill:

He can roughly judge whether a person is lying by the tone and expression of the person’s voice.

The look on Ye Ding’s face when he said that was one of confidence, boasting, and absolute trust in the safety of his own treasure.

In other words, what he said was true, and he said it with the mentality of “Even if I tell you the truth, you won’t be able to guess it.”

Zhou Ke sneered.

But he had already guessed it.

Ye Ding’s words are easy to translate.

If it is not on any [floor], then it must be on [half] floor.

In other words, the four-sided stone must be on this 64.5th floor!

Zhou Ke had already searched this place.

There was nothing else except this little broken box.

Well, the truth is obvious.

“Some literary detective once said…”

“When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how implausible, is the truth.”

“so……”

Zhou Ke was full of confidence and whispered the answer:

“Cubes…create change.”

“The appearance of the four-sided stone has been changed into other things on the entire floor.”

“This thing is you——”

“A little box for asking questions.”

“The four-sided stone took the shape of a box.”

“This is the truth about the Four-Sided Stone.”

Zhou Ke picked up the box with one hand, ready to welcome victory.

【If you answered incorrectly, you will have one more chance left. 】

Huh?

Zhou Ke stood there in a daze for a moment.

[Puff——]

A familiar shrill voice suddenly came from my mind.

[Embarrassing behavior detected, randomly drawing god cards…]

[Drawing… failed! Puff… oops, I forgot you’ve already drawn the God card! ]

[Hahaha!!! This scene is so funny!!! I can’t help it! ]

My mind was filled with the laughter of the clown god.

Zhou Ke shook his head helplessly:

“Did you see it all?”

[Of course! ! Haha! ! My child, you looked so confident when answering the questions…]

[And then I got slapped in the face at the speed of light! Really——]

【It’s so much fun! 】

【Hahaha!!!】

Zhou Kelue interrupted him with some dissatisfaction:

“Stop laughing. Aren’t you on my side?”

“Tell me quickly, how do you answer this question?”

The clown god finally stopped smiling:

[Oh? Could it be that you want off-field assistance! ]

[No! This is cheating, it’s plug-in! ]

[You must rely on your own strength to steal the Four-sided Stone, not on the help of the gods! ]

“After saying so much, you actually still don’t know the truth about the four-sided stone, right?” Zhou Ke said.

[Uh…] The Clown God made an embarrassed sound.

[Humph, I am different from that skull. I am not omniscient. It is normal that I don’t understand! ]

【After all, you don’t know the answer, right? 】

“No, I know.” Zhou Ke said lightly.

“The moment I saw this question, two answers flashed through my mind.”

“I just picked the more likely ones to answer.”

Zhou Ke paused:

“As for the second answer——”

“To be honest, I really don’t want to say it.”

“Because…the answer is…”

“It’s crazy.”
