華華：說到這個，我週末想約剛認識的新朋友出去玩，但寒流來的話戶外活動可能不太合適，我還不知道要做什麼好。
Huáhua: Shuō dào zhège, wǒ zhōumò xiǎng yuē gāng rènshí de xīn péngyǒu chūqù wán, dàn hánliú lái de huà hùwài huódòng kěnéng bú tài héshì, wǒ hái bù zhīdào yào zuò shénme hǎo.

華華：我覺得不錯，可是我們才剛認識，會不會太尷尬？
Huáhua: Wǒ juéde búcuò, kěshì wǒmen cái gāng rènshí, huì bú huì tài gāngà?
清清：不會啦！玩密室脫逃需要大家一起合作，反而更容易變熟。

翻譯 Translation
Qingqing: The weather forecast says there’s going to be a cold front this weekend. It’s so cold — I just want to stay home.
Huahua: Speaking of the cold, I want to invite a new friend out this weekend, but if the cold front comes, outdoor activities might not be suitable. I still don’t know what to do.
Qingqing: How about trying an escape room? I went with my friends before. It was really fun, and you don’t have to worry about wind or rain.
Huahua: Sounds good, but we just met. Wouldn’t it be a bit awkward?
Qingqing: Nah. You need to work together in escape rooms, so it actually helps people bond faster.
Huahua: That’s true. But if we can’t solve the puzzles, that might be a little embarrassing.
Qingqing: You can start with a simple theme. If you get stuck, you can always ask the game master for hints.
Huahua: Great idea. I’ll message him later and ask.
