Overview
This guide covers everything you need to clear this stage — answers, steps, and pro tips.
Your objective: Help Cece pretend to be sick to avoid the date.
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
Here's the complete solution. Follow these 10 steps in order — each one is a concrete action you take on screen.
- Change into patient gown: Drag the white dress (nightgown) hanging at the foot of the bed onto Cece to change her clothes.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Wrap head with bandage: Click the opened cabinet again, drag the gauze/bandage roll inside to Cece's head to wrap it.
- 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.
- 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.
- Weak broken leg: Drag the wooden club again to hit Cece's legs, causing a fracture injury so she can't stand normally.
- 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.
- 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
Use these tips to make things easier — they cover the common traps and fastest route through.
- 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.
