[小小鳄鱼]

help！！！！！！！！I cant go on this game

[小小鳄鱼]

I know the key where it is，but it isn't where it should be

[Salfaden]

Don't worry, You can find simple keys in various locations throughout the game, you can purchase one from Sly at Dirtmouth

That's odd.

Are you sure you didn't pick it up already, and maybe used it somewhere else? There are several keys in the game, and the same number of locks, so you could try either looking for the other keys, or verifying whether you have already opened a different locked door. I assume the keys you have found would also be in the 'save file analyzer' I see posted here sometimes, in which case you could use that tool to find out for sure, though I haven't used it myself.

Use
There are four locations that can be opened using Simple Keys:

The entrance to Royal Waterways from the City of Tears.
The cave to the right of Dirtmouth, beyond the graveyard. This cave is home to Confessor Jiji, who, in return for a Rancid Egg, can summon the Knight's Shade, which is useful if the Shade is stuck in a hard-to-access area and holding a lot of Geo. In Steel Soul Mode, the cave is instead home to Steel Soul Jinn, who trades Rancid Eggs from the Knight for Geo.
The Pleasure House in the City of Tears, along with a Hot Spring, Poggy Thorax, and Songstress Marissa. It is also Millibelle's refuge after she scams the Knight. Once inside, a shortcut can be opened from the Hot Spring to a lift shaft that leads from the City of Tears to the Resting Grounds, and also grants easy access to the northern part of Kingdom's Edge and the Colosseum of Fools.
Godmaster Icon.png The cocoon of the Godseeker in the Junk Pit. Using the Dream Nail on her grants access to Godhome.

How to Acquire
1.One can be bought from Sly in Dirtmouth for Geo 950.
Shop description:
Simply, a simple key. It will fit a variety of locks, which is useful if you like to poke around in places you don't belong.
2.One can be found in the City of Tears, in the big room with Winged Sentries and a Whispering Root just below the City Storerooms. The key is located in the topmost alcove on the right of the room.
3.One can be found in the Ancient Basin, on the dead body of a Royal Retainer inside a Mawlurk corpse.
4.One can be obtained by killing the Pale Lurker in a hidden area behind the Colosseum of Fools.

Thanks for Bros. Although I still can't find the key in the City of Tears, I think I will find another way to continue my game. This may be a strange bug.
