Chapter 617:
She gestured around, saying, “The mirrors create an illusion of spaciousness. In reality, it’s not that large.”
Prompted by her observation, Milton surveyed the surroundings and remarked, “That seems plausible. So, what’s your point?”
Candice made an estimation, saying, “I believe the first floor is at most three hundred square meters. The upstairs area accounts for four hundred square meters, but there seems to be an…”
The area of a hundred square meters was missing on the first floor. Where could that missing space be?
Enlightened by her explanation, Milton responded, “You mean there might be a secret room here? A secret room with an area of one hundred square meters?”
“Bingo! I suspect that the mirrors are actually meant to deceive the eye, creating a false impression of abundant space. There must be a hidden room somewhere around here, concealed behind one of the mirrored walls.”
With her explanation concluded, Candice began tapping along the mirrored wall, carefully discerning any variations in sound. The dull thud confirmed that there was a solid wall behind the mirror.
Milton joined Candice in tapping the mirror surface.
Suddenly, a crisp sound echoed, causing him to halt.
They exchanged glances, their eyes filled with anticipation.
“We found it!” Candice hurriedly approached Milton and exclaimed. “Based on the sound, this wall is actually a disguised door. Behind it must be a secret room. Let’s search for a switch that could open it.”
Milton nodded in agreement.
Candice began to feel along the edge of the mirror, hoping to find a hidden mechanism or button.
With his tall stature, Milton could reach the top edge of the mirror with his hand. He meticulously traced along the edge, moving forward inch by inch. Suddenly, his long fingers came into contact with something, and a serious expression crossed his face. He had found a latch.

“I’ve found it!” Milton lifted the latch firmly.
A click sounded, and the mirror opened, revealing a slender crack.
A faint reddish light seeped out from the narrow opening. It was indeed a secret room.
Candice couldn’t contain her excitement. She clapped her hands in joy and then grasped Milton’s arm. “That’s amazing! We’ve finally found it!”
Her risks had paid off. She didn’t come here in vain.
Quickly, she opened the door connected to the mirror and rushed inside.
Milton had no time to stop her and swiftly followed suit. As they stepped into the secret room, they were immediately stunned by the scene that unfolded before them.
It was an eye-opener for Candice.
Within the secret room, dim red lights cast an enigmatic glow, encompassing an expansive area of over 100 square meters. The walls were adorned with a diverse collection of enlarged photographs, each capturing various horrible scenes. These were all images of women, unfortunate victims of Corless’ crimes. Many of these photographs displayed unconscious women in lewd poses. Among them, she found images of Belinda.
