Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 615 - 457. Reveal Your Deepest Secret (Part 1)

Shi Nian took a deep breath. Despite wanting to know what happened six years ago, it was driving her to madness, she understood more clearly that what lay ahead was more important than the past; that saving lives now was more worthy than the sacrifice Dad made six years ago.

She stepped forward and placed her hands gently on Huangfu Huazhang’s shoulder and said softly, "I’m bringing up that matter now not to pursue it, but to unlock the current password. Just stay focused, sir."

Then she raised her voice, "Mr. Tang, do you have any advice on the five wires of the second layer?"

Time ticked by slowly, Huangfu Huazhang could hear his own heart pounding emptily.

He took a deep breath, "That day, I remember you wore a black skirt, a blue blazer, paired with a red scarf."

Shi Nian gasped again, quietly clenched her fingertips, "That’s right, that was our middle school uniform. That day we were meant to return to the school for the anniversary, so we all wore our uniforms from that year."

She remembered herself that day, braiding her long hair into two pigtails, the ends slightly curled and lifted in the air, standing with bright eyes and red lips in the sunshine, smiling at her reflection.

Mom sighed, saying it was indeed the most beautiful age in a girl’s life.

But who could have thought later on, her entire life would take such an abrupt turn on that day.

And Huangfu Huazhang knew all of this, too.

Not just the date, he knew all about even what she wore!

She took a deep breath and tried to control herself, "So, blue + black + red, sir, cut!"

The timer had already broken the last minute, rushing towards the final seconds, Huangfu Huazhang decisively cut the wire. The timer jumped another 5 seconds, finally stopping at the last 30 seconds!

Shi Nian’s legs went weak, almost collapsing onto the ground.

While the bomb defusing was thrilling enough, in that instant she suddenly realized George’s sinister scheme!

He was not only setting the bomb for them to pass through levels, George was also using the reasoning process required to pass through the levels to force Huangfu Huazhang to reveal to her the past from six years ago!

Evidently, George seemed to know what had happened six years ago, which is why he set this sequence of entry keys so clearly. What George wanted was for her to know the connection between Huangfu Huazhang and the events of six years ago, which equated to being forced under the pressure of death to oblige Huangfu Huazhang to unveil his disguise before her!

To Huangfu Huazhang, this might be more unbearable than death.

George knows too well how important she is to Huangfu Huazhang, which is why he uses such a method to aggravate Huangfu Huazhang’s torment!

But at this moment, although she figured it all out, under the time constraints, she couldn’t think of any good ideas to soothe Huangfu Huazhang, unable to lessen his torment at this moment...

.

By now, Tang Yanxi and Tang Yanqing could roughly understand what was happening in the basement.

Tang Yanxi bit her lip and resolutely stood up.

The next step — "Splash!" A basin of cold water was poured over him, and George painfully awoke.

Tang Yanxi crouched down, reached out to grab George’s throat, and said quietly, "The third layer’s password, spit it out."

George raised an eyebrow, "Oh? They’ve actually reached the third layer already." He then laughed like a raven, "Haha, haha... They must be having so much fun."

Tang Yanxi picked up the chair beside her and directly knocked George unconscious again; but immediately another basin of cold water splashed over his head.

George was forced to wake up and couldn’t help but raise his voice and curse, "Tang Yanxi, are you insane?"

Tang Yanxi stared at him fiercely, watching the cold beads of water trickle down his cheek, "To deal with a madman, one must use madman’s methods. I know you might not fear death, so I won’t let you die. Do you like this kind of play? Let’s challenge your limits, see how many times you can faint and quickly wake up again."

George clenched his teeth in a cold laugh, "Tang Yanxi, you’d better not let me survive. Otherwise, I will never let you go."

Tang Yanxi nodded coldly with a smile, "Rest assured, I will only let you live when it’s time for you to live, and I won’t hesitate when it’s time for you to die."

Tang Yanxi grabbed his collar, "Password!"

George shouted with manic laughter, "17 years! 17 years I have been waiting for this moment. Now that this day has finally arrived, now that I can savor the agony of the bastard who can’t live nor die, how could I let him go? Tang Yanxi, you might as well give up. No matter how you ask, I won’t tell you anything!"

Tang Yanxi closed her eyes, her voice low and chilly, "Have you seen ’The Mummy’? When I watched it back then, I was only interested in those kinds of beetles in the desert. So I came here, and during my spare time, I also searched to see if such beetles really existed. Later I found some on the corpses in the ruins."

With that said, he paused and took out a small object from his pocket with his slender fingers, elegantly placing it in George’s collar. Then swiftly secured George’s sleeves, collar, and trouser leg tight.

Finally, he also stuffed George’s mouth.

Even wanting to scream but unable to make a sound, must feel truly soul-crushing.

He got up and walked to the window, hurriedly contacting Yanqing: "The time is too short, his self-awareness is too strong, even if we wanted to use psychological guidance, it’s too late."

Yanqing nodded towards that window with a smile from afar: "Then let it go. If he really has to die, taking him along will at least count as revenge."

.

When Yan Xi was dealing with George, Yanqing was actually on a call inside.

Shi Nian and Huangfu Huazhang were silent, so he continued speaking lightly: "... Oh, you were talking about this. You might as well ask me, I know more clearly about it."

Shi Nian asked in shock: "What did you say?"

Yanqing accurately stated that date and then quietly closed his eyes, still smiling: "I was the one who set this date. Don’t you remember? You told me yourself that day was your school anniversary, and you had to wear your school uniform skirt for the event, didn’t you?"

Shi Nian’s heart trembled.

Indeed, she had said that. He had mentioned online that he really wanted to see her in her school uniform skirt. She smiled, rolling her eyes, saying, "You’re dreaming"; then he replied, "What I want to see must be even more beautiful than I imagined."

She scoffed, saying, "Too bad you can’t see it."

He suddenly said, "Who says I can’t?"

After saying this, he logged off, leaving her staring at the screen in a daze for quite a while. Suddenly, a strange intuition surged in her heart, like a kitten’s paws gently scratching; but she pushed it away herself.

Meeting internet friends was quite popular during that time, girls in the same dorm saw several; but she and him... oh heavens, impossible, they were oceans apart, not something that could happen just like that.

Yanqing took a deep breath and continued: "That time was the instruction I gave to Gu Yong, telling him to make a move on that day. And your appearance, it’s what I described to him. Using what you told me about your school uniform’s appearance, I told him to look for the girl in a blue jacket, black short skirt, matched with a red silk scarf, with two braided pigtails having slightly natural curls at the ends..."

Shi Nian’s heartbeat stopped, she could only mechanically ask: "What did you say?"

Yanqing slowly said: "That’s right, I was the one who arranged that matter back then. Cousin, let’s bear it together. I wasn’t bold either, but since we’re talking about it, it’s not a big deal anyway."

.

Huangfu Huazhang’s heart also silently stirred.

Turns out Yanqing was unveiling his own mask to Shi Nian at this moment to bear the pressure together with him, trying to help him share the burden?

He silently took a breath: "Then the third layer is more directly related to the event six years ago. Yanqing, let’s go down memory lane together."

At that time, Shi Nian was trapped in darkness, unaware of time; but the two of them were different, both of them actually knew.

Yanqing didn’t delay, directly saying a few numbers. Those numbers were all related to the incident back then, but as Huangfu Huazhang entered them one by one, they were not the answers.

Time grew increasingly urgent, Shi Nian covered her ears with her hands, ordering herself to stay calm.

She suddenly exclaimed: "Enter the date of my dad’s death..."

Huangfu Huazhang tightly pressed his lips, paused momentarily, and input—

Shi Nian thought, it must be this date, right?

For years, she couldn’t wake from a nightmare because of Dad’s death in the line of duty; for years, she had been seeking answers, wanting to give dad peace six feet under. If Dad’s death was also linked to Huangfu Huazhang, then the last level password must be this date, right?

But after Huangfu Huazhang entered it, it still didn’t unlock!

In an instant, despair rose and enveloped everyone’s nerves.

Huangfu Huazhang also yelled anxiously: "What else? What else could be more unbearable than this day?"

Heartbeat stopped, the entire basement instantly fell into dead silence.

Suddenly, Yanqing and Shi Nian almost shouted simultaneously: "Jieyou!"

Huangfu Huazhang had two major weaknesses in life, Shi Nian and Jieyou. And Jieyou was even causally related to the incident six years ago.

Yanqing took a deep breath: "Cousin, I never dared ask you before. But at this very moment, there’s no room for hiding: Jieyou’s birthday, cousin."
