Because the floor area of ​​this room is not large compared to the floor below, and it also has a sense of the location of the channel, the imager can easily find the location where the channel is buried here.

"Dongdong."

The mist believer stretched out his back and knocked on the wall in front of him.

This location is directly behind Kotojuro's desk.

According to the imager's display, the entrance to the passage directly to the underground is right behind this wall.

"I think, at this point, there is probably no need to find any switches to open the gate of this passage?" Ming Zhubanxue glanced at the ordinary wall with wallpaper and said.

"No point." The mist believer shook his head, "It's useless even if you look for it, because I don't think the switch of this passage door is in this room."

"Not in this room?" Qiu Shuangyue asked with a frown, "Then how do people in this room get in?"

"Good question." The mist believer slapped twice.

"Because this passage was built, it was not for the use of the people in the room." The mist believer smiled. "Its purpose is to let the people inside come to this room, so it is impossible to leave a switch that can be opened from the outside in this room."

"You mean-" Qiu Shuangyue seemed to understand something.

"That's right, maybe Kotojuro didn't know that there was such a channel connecting to the underground space until his death." The Misty Nobuter spread his hands.

"But." Mizunobu said, turning around and looking at Kotojuro who was still hanging in the air, sighing, "Before we open this wall, we should just put his body--"

“Buzz…”

Before the mist believer finished speaking, a wave that shook the entire space suddenly invaded, causing the three of them to sting.

This is a bad sign of distortion of reality.

It also means they don’t have much time left.

"I think." The mist believer took a deep breath and adjusted his breathing, "We're going to hurry up."

...

No one knows what the mist letterer and Mingzhubanxue are carrying out on weekdays.

Imager, fake fingers, RPG... and now it is a patch bomb.

"call."

Looking at the pile of gravel and dust in front of him, the mist believer wiped his forehead with the back of his hand.

"This kind of bomb is specially used to blow up the wall." He looked at the thing hidden behind the wall in front of him and smiled unconsciously. "I was just thinking that I was afraid of hurting the things behind the wall, but I didn't expect that the passage hidden behind the wall would be..."

It was an elevator.

The display screen, which was emitting a faint green light, seemed to be showing its body that could still be used.

"If it's an elevator, it means that people living in this underground space need to use the elevator to move." The mist believer shook his head, "I thought we were going to go down through the sling, but now it's a waste of time."

"Sling...hehehehehehehehehehehehe what are you thinking." Qiu Shuangyue felt a little ashamed.

"What should I use without a sling?" The mist believer was puzzled by Qiu Shuangyue's reaction. "Do you plan to jump directly from this height?"

"However, if the person below is someone who needs to use the elevator, it will prove two things." Ming Zhubanxue, who was standing beside him, reasoned with his chin.

"Are you two things...what two things do you want to say?" The mist believer looked at Mingzhubanxue.

"First, since this passage uses an elevator, it means that the purpose of this passage is more inclined to go from bottom to top than from top to bottom."

As he said that, Mingzhu stood up his second finger.

"Second, because it is impossible to set up an elevator to do something secretly with the office and the owner of this building, so the elevator must have been included in the planning when the building was first built, but Kotojuro didn't know it at that time."

"Do you think so? I understand." The Misty Nobuter nodded thoughtfully, while turning his gaze to the body of Kotojuro who had just been taken off the chandelier by them.

They did not do anything to Kotojuro's body, nor did they look for traces of the murderer in him.

After all, their mission is to find the Fringe Night and Natsumi Wuli, not the detective who came to be the murder of Kotojuro.

No one in this team's surname is Kudo, no one's surname is Edogawa, and no one's surname is Holmes.

"So."

The Misty Nobuter moved his eyes away from Kotojuro's body and turned to the two people beside him, "I'll make up for it."

As he said that, he stretched out his right hand and pointed at the display screen of the elevator.

The numbers shown above are numbers on this layer.

“What does this number represent?”

"It means it is still on our level." Qiu Shuangyue said directly.

However, as soon as he said something, he regretted it.

Yes, the elevator is still parked on this floor.

But why?

There is probably only one answer.

Kotojuro's corpse was still warm, and the scars did not look so old, and there was no odor or the phenomenon that the corpse should have.

In other words, the person who came up to kill Kotojuro from the elevator has not yet returned.

Even that person is likely to remain in this room.

And it turns out that the man is indeed still in this room.

"bite!"

The elevator made a reminder sound like a microwave.

Then, in full view of everyone, the numbers on the elevator display began to drop rapidly.

"Damn it, that person was in this elevator just now!"

The fog believer rushed to the elevator and pressed the call button, but unfortunately, the elevator was just a machine, not as willful as humans.

It will only act according to procedures and logic, and will not make any changes due to the words of others.

"Will that person move Kotojuro's game cabin?" Akizumi said, "No, before we talk about this, we don't even know how many people were in the elevator just now."

They are still in a passive state on the whole line, and only this has never changed.

"All these things are good. Now the most important thing is... we only have the elevator, the means of transportation left." Qiu Shuangyue sighed.

That's true.

He even began to regret climbing the stairs.

Because if you come up from the elevator, you might be able to catch up with Kotojuro's murder scene.

Maybe they only have a little time left.

And this is called coincidence.
