Level Overview

Welcome to Tricky Story Story 2 Level 22! Riley (orange-haired girl on the left) is standing in the center of the school hallway full of lockers, confidently preparing to publicly expose Claire's fake identity. Claire on the right is already trembling with fear. To prevent the truth from being exposed, you must take over the scene and assist Claire in her desperate struggle. This level's core mechanism is counter mode (0/9). Clearing requires completing 9 successful effective interaction operations in total. You need to make full use of industrial tape on the floor, wasp nests outside the window, passers-by's bubble gum, and fire alarm bells on the wall. Each successful interference or silencing operation will add "+1" to the progress bar. Collect 9 points to completely cut off Riley's speech!

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1. Pick Up Yellow Tape on Ground (Progress 1/9): Observe the floor in the lower left corner. A roll of yellow strong industrial tape is lying there. Click and hold it with your finger to tear it up from the ground.
2. Seal Riley's Mouth (Progress 2/9): Drag the torn yellow tape to the mouth layer of Riley on the left who is talking endlessly and release your hand to stick a thick physical isolation seal.
3. Swipe Up to Push Open Large Window on Left (Progress 3/9): Click the large blue-framed glass window on the left. Press and hold the lower edge of the window frame and swipe up to completely push open the tightly closed window.
4. Poke Down Wasp Nest on Tree Branch Outside Window (Progress 4/9): After the window is opened, you can clearly see a yellow beehive hanging on the tree branch outside the window. Click the wasp nest hard to poke it down, letting swarms of wasps fly into the hallway to wreak havoc and create panic.
5. Seize Pink Bubble Gum from Girl on Right (Progress 5/9): Notice the African short-skirt girl leaning against the locker at the right wall root blowing big bubbles. Click the pink bubble gum she is blowing in her mouth to seize it away.
6. Use Bubble Gum to Stick Riley's Throat (Progress 6/9): Drag the seized high-viscosity bubble gum directly into Riley's mouth to use its stickiness to block her language output vocal cords.
7. Press Red Fire Alarm on Wall in Middle Back (Progress 7/9): Move your gaze to the middle back door above in the background. A red round fire alarm bell is hanging on the wall. Click the alarm button to trigger deafening fire alarm noise.
8. Lead Background Talking Teachers to Come Evacuate Crowd (Progress 8/9): After the fire alarm sounds, click the two female teachers talking in the back hallway. After hearing the alarm, they will rush forward in panic to evacuate and isolate all gathered students.
9. Click Claire's Black Leather Bag to Complete Final Blockade (Progress 9/9): When the whole field falls into completely out-of-control extreme chaos due to fire alarm, wasps and teacher intervention (progress bar reaches 8/9), click the black handbag hanging on blonde Claire's wrist. She will throw out the final sealing documents from the bag or directly drag Riley to escape the scene. Progress bar instantly fills to 9/9 for perfect clearance!

Pro Tips

• Extreme hand speed double opening flow: Taking yellow tape (Step 1) and opening window (Step 3) can be completed continuously in the first 5 seconds of opening regardless of order. While the tape sticking mouth animation is playing, smoothly push open the window, which can perfectly squeeze the 60-second hard time limit.
• Ignore secondary background blind zones: The deep blue "STAGS" hallway large banner in the back, the strip white incandescent lights on the hallway ceiling, and the colorful graffiti on the right white wall are all locked static pixels. Blindly clicking has no feedback.

Common Mistakes

• Directly clicking Claire or Riley herself at the opening: Before using surrounding environment and props to help the progress bar accumulate to 8/9, the action frames of the two heroines are in locked confrontation state. Blindly clicking them frantically will not have any feedback.
• Mistakenly smashing wasp nest or bubble gum on Claire: Claire is the object we need to assist against Riley. If you throw the debuff wasp nest (Step 4) on her, it will cause Claire to be directly stung and fainted, announcing failure.
• Only clicking yellow tape without dragging displacement to the right: All physical props on the ground are strictly based on drag and drop. If you just tap the tape lightly in place, it will only shake and cannot be sent to Riley's mouth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why didn't the progress bar (0/9) increase when I clicked the girl blowing bubble gum on the right?

This girl's judgment area is very rigid. You need to accurately click the pink big bubble itself that she is blowing out of her mouth (Step 5). If you only click her red T-shirt or white knee-high socks, the system will judge it as an invalid blank click.

Did Riley really completely lose after the progress bar fills to 9/9?

No. This is just Tricky Story's classic level twist design. Although Claire forcibly silenced Riley through extreme prank means in this level, it also aroused extreme suspicion from school senior management and male protagonist Liam. In the upcoming principal's office confrontation and true heir verification levels, Claire will face even more irreversible reckoning!
