Chapter 1290: Open Sesame
Of course, there was another main reason why Zhao Yu quickly determined that the crocodile was fake, and that was the invisible detector in his brain.
As soon as he arrived at the crocodile pool, the detector immediately showed that the crocodile was equipped with an electronic remote control device.
That's why Zhao Yu was able to judge with certainty that all the crocodiles were fake.
"My father is right..." Simona said, riding on Zhao Yu's neck, "Green is really weird! Who would have thought that he set up the maze and the crocodile pond to make us not take the usual path?" ? It's so cunning..."
"Actually..." Zhao Yu smiled slightly, "On the contrary, I understand a little bit! Green's meaning may be telling us that detective reasoning in reality cannot rely entirely on books and experience.
"Sometimes, it is also necessary to take a slant of the sword and make some bold attempts.
"Take the maze and the crocodile pool as an example. Sometimes going straight is more effective than thinking hard..."
"Well said," Simona admired, "This is an old saying my father used to say, you can't 'admit the truth'!
"Oh, I thought that I could stand out in the detective salon with my own abilities, but I didn't expect..." Simona couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, "It's a shame that I couldn't even pass this first test!
"It's fortunate that I met you, a Chinese detective, today, otherwise, I would be really embarrassing!"
"Wow, you speak old Chinese more fluently than I do!" Zhao Yu joked, "You don't have to thank me too much. If I go to America in the future, remember to treat me well!"
"Hehe... definitely!" Simona smiled happily, and the relationship between the two suddenly became much closer.
Talking and laughing, the two walked straight through the crocodile pool and came to the other side.
After the two climbed out of the pool and climbed over the railing, a small delicate garden appeared in front of them.
It wasn't long before they walked along the garden, but they saw a wall made of huge stones standing in front of them, blocking the way.
On the stone wall, there are some ancient murals painted, and the contents of the murals are all strange patterns such as totems.
"Here..." Simona pointed to a stone door under the wall and said, "This should be the exit, right?"
talking,
The two stepped forward and pushed hard, but the stone door did not budge.
"Look..." Simona pointed to something beside the door and said, "There seems to be some mechanism here..."
Zhao Yu stepped forward to check, and sure enough, he saw that many of the reliefs beside the stone gate could be rotated.
"It seems..." Simona looked carefully at those organs, "There should be a mystery hidden here, and we can only open the stone gate if we solve the mystery!"
While speaking, she took a few steps back, looked at the front wall, pondered and said: "I think...the mystery should be in these murals, these should be paintings and totems of Pacific natives, we need to analyze carefully Take a moment... um..."
Xi Mengna was thinking actively, but in the blink of an eye, she saw Zhao Yu lying on the stone door, knocking on something.
"Hmm...Zhao Yu...what did you discover?" Xi Mengna was very curious and hurriedly asked.
"Miss Detective, have you heard the story of 'Open Sesame'?" Zhao Yu touched the stone door and said meaningfully.
"What, open sesame?" Simona pondered seriously, "Isn't that the story in One Thousand and One Nights?"
"Yes!" Zhao Yu smiled slightly, "Miss Detective, now you only need to say "Sesame to open the door", and the door will open automatically!"
"Oh? No way..." Although Simona felt unbelievable, she still whispered those four words, "Open Sesame!"
"Please, miss, speak louder, the gods can't hear you!" Zhao Yu reminded with a smile.
"Okay, ahem..." Simona cleared her throat, and raised her voice, "Z-ma-open-the door!"
"YES!" Zhao Yu blinked with a smirk, then raised his right foot and kicked violently on the stone door.
"Huh?" Simona's eyes widened in fright, "Don't..."
From Xi Mengna's point of view, it was a stone gate, Zhao Yu's foot would definitely break his leg.
However, it was time to witness the miracle. Not only did Zhao Yu's leg not break when he stepped down, but the seemingly solid stone door was kicked open by Zhao Yu!
Moreover, the stone door was not only kicked open, but also made the sound of wood splitting.
Xi Mengna took a closer look, and finally realized that the stone door was also made of wood.
"Hahaha," Zhao Yu laughed, "It seems that this old Mr. Green is also a guy who likes violence!"
"This..." Simona ran up to take a look. It turned out that the stone door was covered with a thick layer of stone powder, which was disguised as a stone, but the inside was all wood.
Zhao Yu followed closely and kicked the stone door open.
"It's amazing, I couldn't have imagined it!" Simona looked at the wall and shook her head and sighed, "The murals on the wall, as well as those bas-reliefs that can rotate, are all used to confuse people..."
While speaking, Simona's eyes towards Zhao Yu changed drastically again, from admiration to admiration.
In fact, Zhao Yu was not sure just now, he was just eager to pass the test, so he did not hesitate to use a perspective instrument to check Shimen, and only then did he see through the mystery of Shimen.
"Oh oh oh... (Congratulations)..." The next second, there was a burst of applause and someone's congratulations in English from behind the stone gate.
After hearing this, Xi Mengna and Zhao Yu hurried through the broken stone door.
Behind the stone gate is impressively bright, and you can see the gray-black castle standing in the distance.
"Congratulations, congratulations both of you..." At this time, a white woman with the appearance of a housekeeper came to the two of them with a plate, which contained nothing but mineral water.
Zhao Yu and Xi Mengna were already thirsty, so they quickly opened a bottle for each of them and drank wildly.
"As expected of a new guest, I passed the three barriers of Miracle Island so quickly, congratulations..." The housekeeper smiled and congratulated, while taking out two glittering gold coins and handing them to the two, " This is a reward from the master to the two of you, please accept it."
"Thank you..." No matter what the process was, Simona felt very happy and accepted the reward gladly.
However, in Zhao Yu's heart, the boss was unhappy. He didn't care about the gold coin at first, but after thinking about it, since Green has such a personality, maybe this gold coin also contains some mystery.
So, he finally held back his temper, took the gold coin, and put it in his pocket.
"Okay," the housekeeper saw that the task was completed, and hurriedly pointed to the huge castle behind, and said to the two, "You two distinguished guests, please come with me! Everyone is here, and the banquet is about to begin!"
