After Yan Jing Cai took Xu Yixiang away, Su Min felt much more relaxed.

He was a little overwhelmed by that female protagonist with very imaginative thoughts.

When they reached the third floor, Yan Jing Cai stopped, "We're here."

They lived on the second floor and had not had the chance to go to the third floor. After getting out of the stairwell, they saw locked rooms.

Unlike the floors below, there were only a few doors here. On both the right- and left-hand side, which also happen to correspond with the dining hall downstairs, were rooms that were locked up.

Their memories of this place from more than ten years ago were very faint.

Yan Jing Cai tried to recall a little, "We seemed to have come to the third floor before when we were young."

Su Min didn't receive much memories, but he still possessed the ones that he needed, "Yes, when we were playing hide and seek."

When they were young, they didn't have much. All they could do was play games like these.

According to his script, Yan Jing Cai and Su Min often played games together after their relationship improved and there were also several other children.

The game of hide and seek relied on how well one could hide.

There were only a few places where the children can hide in the orphanage, and he and Yang Jing Cai hid in many of those. After they had nowhere else to hide, they came up to the third floor.

But they were still young at that time and they didn't know much even if they saw anything.

Xu Yixiang pointed at the closest room, "Let's try this one first. It'll be convenient to run out if we need to later."

Yan Jing Cai walked over, "The door is locked."

Su Min looked at it, "Let me borrow your hair pin."

Xu Yixiang didn't understand and handed over the small hair pin. She whispered: "You're going to pick it?"

Su Min said: "I'll try."

It wasn't actually difficult. The lock was very old, and it was also just a normal padlock, not the advanced locks you find nowadays.

After about a minute, the lock was opened.

Su Min turned around and saw Yan Jing Cai and Xu Yixiang's complicated expressions, "Have you been picking locks all these years?"

Xu Yixiang: "It's been hard on you."

Su Min: "............"

He returned the hair pin to Xu Yixiang, ignored the protagonists with exaggerated imaginations and proceeded to enter the room.

Xu Yixiang said: "I'm not going in."

Yan Jing Cai asked: "If you're not going in, where are you going?"

Xu Yixiang volunteered to go down and act as lookout, "I'll warn you if I hear anything. You guys be careful."

Yan Jing Cai thought about it, "Okay then. You must be careful too."

He watched Xu Yixiang go downstairs before he also entered the room.

Doing something sneaky like this was very nerve-wracking.

The room should be an archive room. There was a bookshelf in the middle with many old books sitting on it. You couldn't tell if there were files there as well.

As soon as Su Min entered, he could smell something mouldy.

He was very familiar with this smell. It was the smell paper made after it was left around for a long time.
