Tricky Story Level 17 -- Story 3

Level Overview

An officer is knocking at the door, waiting for Cece to go on a date. Players need to use hidden props, medicines, and interactive elements in the room within 120 seconds to create 10 signs (0/10) of extreme weakness, injury, high fever, or critical illness. Only by making Cece look completely "critically ill" can you successfully scare away the man outside and cancel the date.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

Keep Cece standing and follow these 10 precise steps in order:

1. Change into patient gown: Drag the white dress (nightgown) hanging at the foot of the bed onto Cece to change her clothes.
2. Summon maid for hot water bag: Click the bell on the bedside table to summon the maid. After the maid enters, she will bring a hot water bag. Drag it to Cece's forehead to create a fever effect.
3. Pale complexion: Click the white cabinet on the wall to open it, take out the powder puff/flour inside, and apply it to Cece's face to make her look deathly pale.
4. Swollen forehead: Click the wooden club lying on the floor, drag it to Cece's head to hit it, causing a large bump on her forehead.
5. Wrap head with bandage: Click the opened cabinet again, drag the gauze/bandage roll inside to Cece's head to wrap it.
6. Tear up from spice (red eyes): Click the vegetable basket on the floor, drag the onion inside to Cece's eyes to make her tear up with red, swollen eyes.
7. Create feverish flush: Drag the red chili from the basket to Cece's mouth to eat it (or use the red lipstick nearby), making her face show abnormal redness.
8. Weak broken leg: Drag the wooden club again to hit Cece's legs, causing a fracture injury so she can't stand normally.
9. Mess up hairstyle: Press and hold Cece's silver hair with your finger and rapidly swipe left and right to completely mess up her originally neat hair.
10. Collapse weakly (final move): After completing all 9 disguises above, press and hold Cece and drag her toward the right rear (toward the bed), letting her collapse weakly onto the luxurious bed behind her, triggering 10/10 perfect completion!

Pro Tips

• Ample time but low error tolerance: Although there are 120 seconds on the clock, with 10 steps and animation judgments, you need decisive finger clicks. Don't linger meaninglessly on a single prop.
• Listen for progress sounds: When a sick prop is correctly placed and takes effect, the game will make a "ding" sound, and the progress bar (like 0/10) will update in real-time. If progress doesn't increase, the target position (like head or eyes) wasn't precise enough - adjust and drag again.

Common Mistakes

• Laying Cece down too early: This is the biggest trap. Many players instinctively drag Cece to the bed (step 10) at the start. Once she lies down prematurely, many subsequent props targeting the body, face, and hairstyle (like club, onion, hair gestures) will lose precise judgment, causing you to get stuck. Always save "lying down" for the very last step.
• Ignoring openable cabinets: The white cabinet on the wall and bedside table drawers can be clicked to open. Many players can't find gauze or key items because they forget to click open these hidden storage spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the progress get stuck at 8/10 or 9/10?

This usually means you performed the steps out of order or missed a key prop. Make sure to complete all 9 disguise steps before dragging Cece to the bed. The final "lying down" action must be the absolute last step.

Can I use different props for the same effect?

No, each step requires specific props in specific locations. For example, you must use the onion from the vegetable basket for red eyes - other items won't work. Follow the walkthrough sequence precisely.
