I Was Admitted To The Villain School Chapter 37.1

Fu Zhou also recognized it.

No one on the ship knew what an alpine rimerose looked like.

Fu Zhou's hands were shaking, and he said, "Everyone said that you are the leader of the Koi sect, and it seems to be true. You can also find clues like this? What does this painting mean? There are palaces, brides, and snow-capped roses... Are the alpine rimeroses in this place?"

Fu Zhou thought about it for a while and asked, "But what does this have to do with the cruise ship? What does it have to do with the hadal ogres? Where are we going to find a bride? Or will the alpine rimeroses only appear when someone becomes a bride? "

Lin Xinghe said, "I don't think any of them are right."

"Huh?"

Lin Xinghe said, "There are hints in the exam questions, do you remember? Find an Alpine Rimerose, and a hint was given later. There are only fifty alpine rimeroses in this exam room. But there are more than fifty roses in the painting—hundreds, maybe even thousands."

Fu Zhou counted, stopping after he reached fifty.

He said, "Is it possible that there are only fifty alpine rimeroses in total, and we need to find the real alpine rimeroses in the sea of

Lin Xinghe replied, "There are not enough clues at the moment, so we can't make a conclusion. Let's take the painting and try to find some other clues. Don't you have a storage ring? You take it."

Just in case, Lin Xinghe took a photo of the painting with her mobile phone before letting Fu Zhou put it in the storage ring.

There was a secret door behind the painting.

The material of the door was some kind of metal, with a luster like black iron, cold to the touch.

Lin Xinghe asked, "What material is this? Do you know?"

Fu Zhou touched it and felt a chill in his fingertips. He shivered and said, "I don't know either. The setting of this world has hadal ogres, which sounds more like a fantasy environment. Jiuge may know."

Lin Xinghe replied, "Then let’s go ask Jiuge after we find some more clues."

She groped around for the switch for the door to the safe space.

When the door opened, the light from the exhibition hall streamed into the dark room and also illuminated a small portion of the area inside.

Fu Zhou flicked his fingers, and a bright light shot out from his fingertips. The stream of light consolidated into an orb and floated in the air, illuminating the safe space as bright as day.

Lin Xinghe had seen this kind of orb in Jiuge's hair shield before and knew that it was a magic light.

Fu Zhou explained, "The light tool that Jiuge bought before can illuminate the area of

about 50 square meters each, while two can double the area of effect. Once, Jiuge and I made a bet to see whose hair dropped less on the next day, so he lost one to me."

Lin Xinghe: ...You men are really interesting.

There were a total of eight people in every corner of the dark room. All of them were sallow and thin, maybe from hiding in the dark for too long, and the strong light made them cover their eyes.

After acclimating to the light, they all huddled in fear, and some even cried in despair.

Lin Xinghe took a quick glance at them, then went to examine the surroundings in the safe space.

To her surprise, this room was about 40 to 50 square meters, with beds, carpets, dressers, wardrobe screens, and even a grandfather clock. The items were all two times the normal size, and the style was similar to the palace in the painting just now, complete with luxuriously exquisite details

But they were very old.

This was apparently a girl's bedroom.

Lin Xinghe started a carpet search, rummaging through all the places in the space that could be turned over. In the end, there was only one locked wardrobe unscathed.

Fu Zhou also noticed and said, "There should be a key."

Lin Xinghe said, "It shouldn’t be so troublesome, just smash it."

Fu Zhou replied, "If it could be smashed, the people here would have smashed it long ago."

Lin Xinghe shook her head and stated, "Obviously, they didn’t have a chance to smash anything. They would be discovered if they made noises or shine lights, so it's very possible that they don't even know what's in the room."

Fu Zhou went to smash the lock and found that he could really smash it open.

The lock clanked on the ground.

Inside the wardrobe was a snow-white wedding dress, a pair of crystal shoes, and a jewelry box.

Lin Xinghe took them out and placed them on the bed. She carefully compared it with the wedding dress from the painting and confirmed that it was the same wedding dress. She opened the jewelry box again and found a sapphire necklace with matching earrings and bracelet as well as a palm-sized sheepskin codex.

The codex told an ancient bridal legend—

A long time ago, there was a fair maiden who fell in love with a hadal ogre. The hadal ogre was obsessed with the beauty and kindness of the girl and held a grand wedding with the girl on the cruise. Since then, they lived happily ever after as a fairy tale prince and princess.

Fu Zhou stuttered, "This exam room is a fairy tale?"

Lin Xinghe said calmly, "Not necessarily."

Fu Zhou retorted, "The bride and the hadal orge lived happily ever after, so isn't it a fairy tale?"

Lin Xinghe said, "The bride is a human. Is the hadal ogre human? They are different species. It is not impossible for those of different species to be happy together. But if the hadal ogre really loved the human bride, would he build her a hidden room behind a picture frame? When you love someone, you want the best for her. Is this a good place? I'm afraid this is more of a gilded birdcage."

Fu Zhou did not expect this type of reasoning.
