At this moment, Suri Drew seemed to have discovered something, and excitedly spoke to Yigol Novak and Price outside the door.
“You guys, come and have a look!”
Hearing this, they naturally rushed to her side at top speed, wanting to see what she had discovered.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that she had actually pressed down on a recessed tile.
No one had expected this turn of events.
“My goodness, how could this be pressed down?”
Even Price was dumbfounded. He had been in this place much longer than Suri and Yigol, yet he had never noticed it.
Yigol Novak standing nearby was also extremely puzzled.
He too had not expected these events to unfold.
Unable to believe it, he also voiced his thoughts.
“This is truly incredible. We didn’t notice this at all. We’ve been searching around here for so long, but found nothing unusual.”
Price nearby immediately nodded in agreement.
“Yeah, I didn’t find anything either.”
They had indeed been searching earnestly, looking for any other mechanisms inside the room that could lead elsewhere.
They had already spent too much time here and didn’t want to stay any longer, so if there were no signs of rescue, would they be trapped here forever?
They couldn’t bear the thought of that happening.
Now that they had a way to escape, they certainly didn’t want to waste any time in resolving this issue.
After all, they had many more matters to deal with once they got out.
If they alarmed their pursuers, the situation could become much worse.
They had to leave as quickly as possible and gather evidence as fast as they could. Only then could they send all of them behind bars, otherwise the criminals might have a chance to escape.
How could Suri not be happy at this time? Relying on her efforts, she had actually found the answer.
So at this moment, she nodded her head in delight.
“You guys should come in and have a look. I think there must be some mechanism here that can take us to another place. This bathroom is really strange and different from the others.”
She had initially felt that something was off when using the bathroom, which led her to consider this possibility. Otherwise, she would never have thought of it.
Yigol and Price, knowing how important these details were, began to look around carefully.
They couldn’t afford to miss any details.
Moreover, this situation was quite unique for them.
If they could live well here, staying for a few days wouldn’t be a problem.
However, there were limited supplies, not enough for them to eat, and they had more important matters to deal with. They couldn’t stay here forever.
So regardless of the situation, they had to focus on escaping quickly, instead of staying in this place.
They both moved closer in Suri’s direction, carefully examining the area for any parts that could activate the mechanism.
Although the whole bathroom was very narrow and had a strange smell, they had to endure it to find a way out.
After carefully observing the bathroom, Price finally furrowed his brow and shared his opinion.
“Actually, I think there is something different about this place compared to the others.”
“Not only does it look different from the others, but even the way the tiles are placed is strange. And, because you were able to press it down, it likely triggered some kind of mechanism that we haven’t discovered yet.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yigol nodded without hesitation, in complete agreement.
When Suri first mentioned her discovery, an understanding had already formed in his mind.
He thought that perhaps this was not just a single switch, and they had to activate all of the switches in order to open the passage.
Now that they had this idea, he wouldn’t keep it to himself.
So he immediately spoke up.
“I think we should try pressing all the tiles. We might find something unusual, and by opening all the mechanisms, we may be able to leave.”
Everyone agreed with his suggestion, understanding the meaning behind his words.
Suri directed her gaze at her husband and asked.
“So you think that if we open all the mechanisms, a secret passage will appear?”
On hearing her question, Yigol nodded, as that was precisely what he had meant to say.
One had to admit that his wife had an intuitive understanding of his thoughts. In many things, even if he did not state them clearly, she could still grasp his meaning.
Perhaps this was because they had been together for such a long time and had a good understanding of each other. Others might not be able to grasp each other’s thoughts so quickly.
Price, who had been listening to their conversation, finally understood the meaning behind their words.
Honestly, he also believed they had a strong rationale, and so he began to carefully inspect the tiles and planned to press them.
Everyone began to focus on this task, without a bit of carelessness.
They were definitely serious about it.
No matter what, they couldn’t make any mistakes.
Otherwise, the situation might become even worse. They wanted to leave as soon as possible, instead of being stuck here doing nothing.
Although they believed the place was safe for now, if they were discovered, there would be nowhere to hide.
So, rather than waiting, they should think about how to get out.
After a while, a strange noise suddenly emerged in front of them.
It sounded like something moving.
