Do Mental Exercise and Become a Logical King

Allen Boe's aunt, Miao Miao, is an actress who is about to star in a new play. She is invited to the director's mountain house for a party with the main cast. Alan Boe, who wants to meet the stars and Li Sidi, as the "family member", go along for the party.

The villa is called "Illusion Mansion". The second floor in it extends outward by a circle compared to the first floor, and there are no windows on the second floor. The roof is full of dense plants, just like a "forest in the air".

There are a lot of Chinese paintings hung on the first floor of the villa hall. Each guest room on the second floor also has the same Song Dynasty painting replica of the "Skeleton Illusion Play": A big skeleton wearing clothes and hats sits on the ground, and a small skeleton is controlled by silk thread to play a puppet show.

After the meal, the group plays a computerized divination game, but the result is shocking: "Stop the current work immediately! Otherwise the souls of all participants will be taken by the devil!"

Everyone goes to bed with their own concerns, but early the next morning, Alan Boe's aunt, Miao Miao, is found passed out at the front door of the first floor. When she wakes up, everyone realizes that she goes "crazy"!

Miao Miao says that late last night, she saw the big skeleton in painting "Skeleton Illusion Play" in the hall! It is two stories high! She insists that hall of the first floor becomes taller at that time! Even the decorative Chinese paintings are several times bigger! It's as if she's in the Land of the Giants!

Everyone thinks that Miao Miao is mentally ill. Even worse news, the only tunnel to the mountain has been closed due to a serious traffic accident, and they are trapped in the "Illusion Mansion"!

After investigating and questioning, Allen Boe and Li Sidi catch a key clue: Miao Miao remembers that the chandelier on the ceiling is still the same size when she is looking up at the giant skeleton and it hasn’t gotten any bigger...
