Chapter 51 The Secret Chamber 1

As soon as the car stopped, the director asked the guests to put their hands on the shoulders of the teammates in front of them and get off the car in a straight line.

In the darkness, no one could see the road ahead. Being the first time trying it out, and lacking coordination, they stepped on the feet of the people in front of them several times.

I don't know where we were taken, but once we were standing still, we suddenly felt someone approaching and tying everyone's hands and feet with rope.

Director: "Before you all take off your blindfolds, the team leader needs to choose a teammate to answer three questions for me."

Lin Xingsen answered without hesitation: "Su Yunruo."

Su Yunruo then exclaimed "Huh?" at the opportune moment.

The live stream had anticipated this.

[You've been drinking water so hard, this is the moment you've been waiting for.]

I suspect he'll also send Su Yunruo to the single-player quest later.

[Cat: Finally, I can get my revenge!]

The director pressed further, "Aren't you going to change it?"

"..." He paused for a moment, then continued, "...I won't change it."

The director smiled and said, "Alright. Su Yunruo, please answer this question. One: When was the last time you were in a relationship?"

"..."

Silence fell over the scene.

Asking such a private question right at the start of the event made everyone unconsciously prick up their ears, especially Lin Xingsen, who was standing at the front of the line. He clearly felt a hand on his shoulder squeeze him.

Behind him is Zheng Chengcheng.

Zheng Chengcheng exclaimed, "Ouch! Teacher Fan Xingchen, you're pinching me so hard!"

The viewers in the live stream laughed and waited with anticipation.

Wow, that's such a surprising question!

[Fan Xingchen is getting nervous! This means he's either in the middle of a conversation with Su Yunruo, or they haven't started yet.]

The director asked me something I'd always wanted to know; I was also curious about what Su Yunruo's boyfriend was like.

Su Yunruo: "Everyone seems very curious."

In the darkness, Lin Xingsen's bound hands gripped the ropes tied to his body tightly.

Of course I'm curious! I'm dying of curiosity!

[The gossip-loving spirit of the onlookers is ignited!]

"I just finished dating last month, and we even got married."

Director: "Hmm?"

【？？？】

[Su Yunruo reveals she is married.]

"As everyone knows, my wedding with Ke Jinyang was broadcast live online at 8 pm at the end of last month."

"..."

"..."

"..."

[...]

[For your information: Su Yunruo's previous drama aired at 8 PM at the end of last month, and she did indeed have a wedding with Ke Jinyang in the drama.]

[An answer I never expected.]

[According to this, Su Yunruo must be a woman who has been married three times.]

Everyone, including the director, was surprised by Su Yunruo's answer. But then they realized that celebrities often dodge questions about their love lives, and Su Yunruo's answer was within the template. So they moved on to the next question, asking directly: "According to this, Ke Jinyang should be your third husband. Now, here's the question: What are your requirements for your fourth husband?"

Hahahaha

[The official account is so good at picking up on jokes, it's hilarious! They just got married at the end of last month, and now they're already on their fourth marriage.]

[Here's a message for Ke Jinyang: What are your thoughts on your ex-wife's new husband?]

"Tall, handsome, and intelligent; he can cook at home and earn money outside?"

"A man who meets this requirement must be extremely rare." The director continued with the third question: "If you were to marry this perfect man tomorrow, how would you feel?"

—Not good at all; you'd just think he's marrying above his station.

But considering that the three questions should be related to the escape room, Su Yunruo answered according to the show's idea, "I should be a little nervous, but also very happy and looking forward to married life."

Director: "Very good. Now, all of you guests are attending the wedding. Our bride is a beautiful and kind girl like Su Yunruo, and the groom is handsome, gentle, and considerate. He has also achieved the highest rank in the imperial examination and is about to enter the court as an official. You can try to remove the blindfold in ten seconds."

After that, the time was entirely handed over to the guests to explore the escape room.

Zheng Chengcheng had previously participated in the recording of escape room variety shows and had experience, so she took the initiative to say, "Xiao Lin, squat down behind me and I'll help you take off your blindfold."

The live streamer switched to night vision mode and watched as Lin Xingsen, whose hands and feet were tightly bound, suddenly bent over and bumped his backside.

As luck would have it, Zheng Chengcheng was right behind him. The two of them were face to face, and Zheng Chengcheng, caught off guard, stumbled forward and bumped her forehead against the wall.

Snap

The lights were on in this small space.

Compared to this bizarre and hilarious way of turning on the lights, the viewers in the live stream screamed in the chat.

【Aaaaaaaah!】

[So scary, so scary.]

[I was attacked by two kids without any warning; it scared me to death.]

I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight, sob sob.

【Kobayashi, protect me】

【Fan Xingchen, protect me】

...

The guests in the locked room were unaware of what was going on.

Zheng Chengcheng said, feeling wronged, "Xiao Lin, I'm behind you."

Lin Xingsen awkwardly lowered his head and turned around to have Zheng Chengcheng help him remove the blindfold.

Over there, Su Yunruo bumped into the person next to her. She didn't know who it was, but they discussed taking off their blindfolds.

"ah!"

Just as Su Yunruo removed the blindfold from the other person, a piercing scream erupted in her ears.

Female voice.

It turns out to be Wen Qingleng.

She was bumped by Wen Qingleng, and with her hands and feet tied, she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, the secret room was not large, and when she sat down, her head hit the legs of her other teammates.

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."

Wen Qingleng's voice sounded strangely genuine, and since she hadn't hit any bones, Su Yunruo said, "It's alright."

He then said, "Now that I've sat down, could you help me take off my blindfold?"

In the darkness, Su Yunruo felt Wen Qingleng's trembling hand, her nails almost digging into her cheek.

The sound of a rope being pulled came from the side, and a hand helped her stand up.

At the same time, Su Yunruo finally saw something.

The lights were dim, barely illuminating that they were in a 20-square-meter storage room, an antique-style building with earthen walls on all sides and wooden shelves filled with straw and other odds and ends.

Before she could figure out what was so frightening about this little house, a pool of liquid suddenly appeared in her field of vision.

The color was deep red, almost black, with a murky texture, almost exactly like human blood.

"ah!!!!"

Another scream came from behind, and Su Yunruo was bumped by Fan Xingchen.

Even with his composed and mature demeanor, he was terrified, spinning and jumping around on the spot several times, almost grabbing Su Yunruo to block her way.

The viewers in the live stream were completely astonished.

[Hahahaha, is Fan Xingchen really that scared?]

This was completely unlike Fan Xingchen's usual self; he was hiding behind Su Yunruo like a timid little wife.

As if to save Fan Xingchen's face, the camera moved upwards along the blood.

There was a pile of tattered clothes at the bottom of that wall.

The camera's resolution wasn't high enough, but you could still see bloodied limbs protruding from under the clothes.

On the wall where the corpse was leaning, a huge yellow talisman hung, adding an eerie touch to the scene.

The viewers in the live stream screamed along with Fan Xingchen.

I truly empathize with you.

If it were just bone, it would be somewhat acceptable, but it's exactly like a real person's arm, with huge wounds and bleeding, as if it had just died recently, and there's even "yellow talisman to suppress it," making it look ghostly and eerie. Who wouldn't be afraid?

Ahhhhh, I suddenly understand Fan Xingchen.

[This is terrifying; there wasn't even a warning!]

[It's clear this escape room has a Chinese horror theme.]

[Waaaaaah, I'm so scared, but I also want to see what's going on.]

[Actually, it wasn't just them who were frightened; Lin Xingsen's face was also stiff. His current calm was just a facade.]

Lin Xingsen was indeed frightened, but unlike the others who vented their fear through their reactions, he stood straight and dared not move.

Su Yunruo stepped forward to stabilize the situation, saying, "First, take off the ropes binding you. Those who are scared should keep their eyes covered and not look at anything for now. Let me find a way out."

As per Su Yunruo's instructions, everyone untied their ropes.

Wen Qingleng obediently covered her eyes, while Fan Xingchen, hiding behind Su Yunruo, demonstrated what it means to be both incompetent and playful. Although her eyes were covered, her fingers left gaps, constantly peeking at the corpse.

From that moment on, I could no longer look Fan Xingchen, the domineering CEO, in the eye.

[Oh no, looking at him cowering behind Su Yunruo, he doesn't seem like a cold-blooded killer from a movie at all. I'm starting to lose interest.]

Hahaha, from now on, no matter how aloof he is, all I'll remember is that he's afraid of ghosts.

[Fan Xingchen screams: Ruoruo, save me!]

Su Yunruo had no idea what the chat in the live stream was talking about. She was trying to find a way out when, as her gaze darted around, she suddenly met the eyes of the stiff-looking Lin Xingsen.

Her clear, large eyes flickered, revealing a radiant smile.

Lin Xingsen had a bad feeling.

"Squad leader, I'm so scared, please lead us out of here."

"..."

[Cat: I don't believe you! You look like the bravest one in the team.]

Looking at you even once more would be my sin.

[Su Yunruo is practically a cat curse.]

[Cat: Family, does anyone understand? I'm scared too, but I'm the captain.]

"Ruoruo, there's a hole over there."

Fan Xingchen's voice attracted everyone's attention.

Next to the body, on the wall about 1 meter from the ground, there was a hole about 10 centimeters in diameter.

Su Yunruo squatted down and looked out from the cave entrance.

The exterior was set up like a traditional Chinese study, but only a corner was visible, and the whole scene was obscured. Theoretically, they should go there next.

So he turned around and said to everyone, "This place should be the door; you can go out from here."

Lin Xingsen squatted down beside him. "Let me take a look."

Su Yunruo made way for Lin Xingsen, thinking she would look for something else to open the door. Suddenly, Lin Xingsen fell backward and sat on the ground, his face full of terror.

The viewers in the live stream were stunned. What happened to Lin Xingsen?

The next second, the production team showed a shot labeled: "Lin Xingsen's perspective".

Inside the small circle, the furniture and decorations outside, which resembled antique styles, didn't seem particularly special.

suddenly--

A dark shadow flashed by, half a face blocking the view, and a pair of eyes magnified, magnified, and magnified again.

Those eyes didn't look like human eyes; the pupils were terrifying, pure black, with no whites.

【Aaaaaaaah, I'm going to die!】

If I were Lin Xingsen, I would have fainted on the spot.

My twelve-year-old son is bearing undue pressure at such a young age. It's terrifying, so terrifying.

"Xiao Lin, what's wrong?" Zheng Chengcheng quickly helped Lin Xingsen up.

Lin Xingsen was completely devastated. He closed his eyes tightly and swallowed hard, his cool image on the verge of collapse.

Just then, a child's innocent voice came from outside, "Who are you?"

"You're human, don't be afraid." Su Yunru patted Lin Xingsen on the shoulder. "Captain, answer the question."

Lin Xingsen mechanically stood up, forcing himself to remain calm for a few seconds, "And who are you?"

"I am a little rabbit."

"..." Lin Xingsen was silent for half a second, "I am the Big Bad Wolf."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The terrifying atmosphere that the production team had built up for so long was completely ruined by the "Big Bad Wolf," turning the horror film into a comedy.

Hahahahaha

[Is this how a twelve-year-old should communicate?! Who introduces themselves as the Big Bad Wolf to a little rabbit? You probably never want to leave the house again.]

[Is the next song going to be "Little Bunny, Open the Door, Be Good"?]

[The big bad wolf knows to pretend to be the little white rabbit's grandmother when he enters her house; you're not a wolf at all, you're a pig.]

The child fell silent, so Su Yunruo had no choice but to squat down and approach the cave, saying, "We're here to attend a wedding. Little friend, could you let us out? We still have to pay our wedding gift money."

"But you are big bad wolves."

She flashed her usual smile and said in a low voice, "Little friend~ I'm not a big bad wolf, I'm a little rabbit too. I'm being forced to stay locked up with the big bad wolf right now, you have to save me!"

After coaxing the rabbit, he continued to stab the "big bad wolf" next to him, saying, "You quietly open the door a crack, and we'll let the little rabbit out, leaving the big bad wolf inside."

Lin Xingsen's eyes widened in disbelief.

The child seemed to be being tricked, saying, "Then you can't let the big bad wolf out, okay?"

"Uh-huh."

Just when we thought we could go out, the child hesitated again, "No, Grandma said the Big Bad Wolf would wear her clothes to lie to people, you must not be little rabbits."

"..."

"Unless you can answer my question."

Su Yunruo reached out and pulled Lin Xingsen over, "Come on, squad leader, this is a good opportunity to prove you're not the big bad wolf."

The viewers in the live stream were laughing so hard at Su Yunruo's actions.

[Cat: When you don't need me, you leave me here; when you do need me, you call on me to answer questions.]

At this moment, I just want to sing: Love isn't something you can buy or sell just because you want to!

[The poor squad leader, at such a young age, has already been brutally manipulated by a woman, leaving him with psychological trauma.]

[Cat: I'm just a brick, right?]

[It was quite scary at first, but seeing Su Yunruo teasing Lin Xingsen suddenly made me stop being afraid.]

Children: "Listen to the question: There are chickens and rabbits in the same cage. There are 12 heads and 34 legs in total. How many chickens and rabbits are there?"

"???"

Zheng Chengcheng scratched her head, "Will this kind of problem happen again in the future?"

Su Yunruo nodded. "This is a question that's very suitable for a middle school student. Stop daydreaming, squad leader, hurry up and calculate, or it will prove that you're not the same species as us."

Lin Xingsen rolled his eyes at Su Yunruo and said without thinking, "5 rabbits and 7 chickens."

Su Yunru clapped her hands, "Wow! Xiaolin is amazing!"

Zheng Chengcheng, who was playing the straight man, clapped along, saying, "Xiao Lin is particularly good at science, he inherited it from Uncle Lin."

Wow, is my husband, whom I've never met, really that good at science? He's passed on a brain to my son that doesn't need to do calculations.

Less than half a second after the comments section erupted in praise, Lin Xingsen crossed his arms and said, "Are the questions going to be this stupid again?"

【？？？】

Kid, you're getting cocky.

If you keep acting arrogant, I'll show you what's what next time.

Su Yunruo sighed and patted Zheng Chengcheng, "I'm giving you a tough task: go and cover Lin Xingsen's mouth."

"receive!"

Zheng Chengcheng obediently rolled up her sleeves and let out a sly "hehehe" laugh.

Lin Xingsen frowned and tried to dodge, but Fan Xingchen, taking advantage of his height and build, restrained him. Lin Xingsen glared at him, and Fan Xingchen said innocently, "There's no other way. We're in a bind now, and we can't let you provoke them any further."

Lin Xingsen was physically silenced, and Su Yunruo squatted down and said to the children, "Children, did we answer correctly?"

But this time, there was no response from the other side.

Su Yunruo found it strange and was about to get closer to ask more when her head bumped into the hole, unexpectedly pushing the door open.

It's a hidden door. You couldn't see any trace of it before, but now that it's open, you realize that the door isn't very high, only about ten centimeters higher than the opening. You have to crouch down and waddle to get out.

"The door is open?" Su Yunruo pushed the door open wider. "I'll go out and take a look first."

Su Yunruo took the lead and went out. After looking around, she turned back and said, "There's no one outside," before everyone came out one by one.

The exterior is decorated in an antique style, with no overhead lights; the light source comes from the red lanterns in the four corners.

At least there was no blood, and everyone's emotions stabilized a bit. Even Wen Qingleng stopped trembling and covering her eyes.

“We should have arrived at a study.” Su Yunruo looked around and found a door next to the study. She added, “There’s a door here; we should be able to get out.”

Fan Xingchen sat down on the wooden chair in front of the desk. "Never mind, I'll sit down and calm down first."

Just then, Ke Jinyang suddenly appeared in the audience of the live broadcast room.

Ke Jinyang: [I heard Fan Xingchen's house collapsed, so I came to check.]

[Hahaha, it really collapsed.]

[The aloof male god breaks down; he's much more approachable with me.]

Snap—

The lanterns suddenly went out.

As it turns out, Fan Xingchen was right.

Several screams rang out in the darkness. The production team switched to night vision mode and saw Fan Xingchen sitting in a chair huddled in a ball. Wen Qingleng squatted down, and Fu Huai was next to the two little ones. Using all four hands, they dragged Fu Huai to the ground.

Zheng Chengcheng jumped and landed on Lin Xingsen.

Lin Xingsen remained upright, and the viewers in the live broadcast room thought he was very brave. But when the camera got closer, they found that he was so scared that his facial features looked like they had just been put on, and he looked like he was already scared to death.

That's true. If he were even a little calmer, Zheng Chengcheng wouldn't have stayed with him for more than a second.

Hahaha, these people are so different from their usual selves!

[Hilarious! Are you that afraid of the dark?]

They won't stay in this locked room forever, will they?

"Don't be afraid, I'll go find a light."

The team's only god-like figure, Su Yunruo, continued to control the overall situation and comfort everyone in finding a way out.

Lin Xingsen, burdened with the responsibility of being the team leader, forced himself to calm down and helped Zheng Chengcheng down, saying, "I'll look for her too."

Raising both hands and feet simultaneously, the tense nerves didn't detect anything amiss.

Just then, a child's cry for help came from outside the door next to Su Yunruo.

"Help! There's a ghost!"

...

The shouting ended, and silence fell.

Someone swallowed hard.

In the darkness, Zheng Chengcheng slowly asked, "The little girl who was about to open the door for us said there was a ghost?"

Su Yunruo: "Mm."

"..."

"..."

"Are there really ghosts?"

"Looks like I can't hide it anymore." She sighed. "I actually have the ability to see ghosts."

"???"

“There’s an old saying that a person has three fires on their body, one on their head and one on each shoulder. Every time you turn around, one of the fires will go out. Once they’re all out, the ghost can…” She lowered her voice, “You haven’t turned around more than three times, have you?”

Everyone screamed.

Su Yunruo continued her trembling, eerie scream: "Do you know what~"

In horror movies, everyone dies—and the louder the voice, the sooner they die.

Hahahaha.

[Hmm, Su Yunruo's voice is kind of creepy.]

Stop scaring them, they're going crazy.

Su Yunru patted her chest. "Alright, luckily you have me. I'm a natural-born cultivation prodigy, a fearsome ghost. I'll lead the way, and you all stand behind me."

No one dared to move.

Su Yunruo: "Aren't you going to run away? Then I'll find a way out myself."

"Wait for me—"

In the darkness, Fan Xingchen shouted and immediately jumped up from his chair to stand behind Su Yunruo.

He was actually half a head taller than Su Yunruo, but because he was scared, he hunched over and was half a head shorter than Su Yunruo.

The only tank was leaving, and the others dared not stay any longer, so they followed behind and formed a queue.

Now, everyone stood in front of the door.

Snap.

A faint red light shone outside.

Before anyone even saw anything, someone screamed.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid," Su Yunruo called out again, "You can close your eyes."

Wen Qingleng bit her lip, tightly shut her mouth, and closed her eyes.

The camera swept across the terrified crowd before finally landing on Fan Xingchen.

He hid his head almost behind Su Yunruo for two or three seconds, then slowly raised it, revealing his two eyes.

Upon seeing something, it quickly retracts its head, but then sticks it out again a few seconds later.

The production team circled Fan Xingchen and labeled her: "Bad at games but loves to have fun."

After marking the text, the screen went black, revealing several bold words: What is it that makes Fan Xingchen unable to stop?

"High-energy content, please be aware."

【？？？】

In the shot, a red light shines outside the door, faintly revealing the figure of a woman.

She was dressed somewhat like a bride, and her hair was jingling.

She slowly raised her hand, and her nails were even longer than her fingers.

Knock knock knock knock.

Look around.

chua!

It poked through the paper window with its fingernails, gripped the carved door frame, and shook it violently, as if trying to get in.

The last few had a mental breakdown, screaming and grabbing the clothes of the ones in front, stumbling backward several meters.

Outside the door, the female ghost wailed, "Husband, why won't you see me? Husband, please come out and see me!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

[Single-line mission!]

[Four directions! A ghost knocking on the door! That's such detail!]

[I'm horrified for them; Chinese-style horror is so deeply ingrained. Now they're even demanding single-player missions.]

[This episode should be called "Everyone Collapses Except for Su Yunruo." I thought Fan Xingchen would be the one to take the blame, but in the end, Su Yunruo took the fall for everything.]

[Fan Xingchen is so cute! Although she's really scared, she also really wants to try it. It's so interesting.]

Yes, yes, he should be classified as a semi-tank.

[Anyway, the way they huddled together is really funny. Are we really allowed to go out today?]

The ghost story ended, and the room lit up again.

The lanterns were no longer red, but rather glowed with a clearer yellow light.

Su Yunruo struggled to break free from the hands behind her and slowly stood up.

"I'll go out first."

"No, no, no!" Wen Qingleng cried out, her defenses crumbling. "You can't leave."

Indeed, Su Yunruo was the only one in their group with any courage; without her, they would all go crazy.

Although Fu Huai was scared, he kept telling himself that it was all fake, and weakly raised his hand, "I'll go. She just said she wanted to see her husband. Fan Xingchen and I are the only two who have reached the legal marriage age."

That makes sense.

"OK."

Out of humanitarian concern, Su Yunruo walked to the door and said, "I'll open the door for you."

The door opened, and the female ghost was gone. Instead, there was a stone wall with a bright red "囍" (double happiness) hanging on it.

Fu Huai stepped out with one foot first.

Everyone listened intently, their feet sinking into the wooden floor with a soft, creaking sound, creating a sticky, almost unsettling sensation.

“There’s only one long corridor outside, and it turns at the end,” Fu Huai said. “I should have to go there.”

In such darkness, some sound is better than no sound.

Breathing rapidly, Su Yunruo could feel Wen Qingleng's chest rising and falling behind her as they got close.

The longer it goes on, the slower the pace becomes.

Thump—

It felt as if a heavy object had fallen.

Su Yunruo called out, "Fu Huai?"

"..."

"Fu Huai?"

"..."

"What...what happened to him?" Zheng Chengcheng couldn't help but tremble all over.

Snap.

The door closed automatically, the lights inside went out, and the terrifying female ghost reappeared outside.

This time, instead of shaking the door, she whispered like a gentle mother, "Baby, your father doesn't want us anymore. Come, let Mom take you away."

The scene ends, and the lights come on.

Su Yunruo looked at the four children and said, "According to the plot, one of you four should be required to do the mission."

"No, waaaaah, this is too scary!"

"I...I dare not!"

Su Yunruo sighed, "Then I'll go, why can't a thirty-year-old be a baby?"

Hahaha, you're right, you can still be a baby at thirty.

[I can already imagine what it would be like if we left the four of them to do individual tasks on their own.]

[This female ghost is really scary, especially in an antique-style house. The atmosphere is too intense; can children handle it?]

"I'll go." Lin Xingsen got up from the ground. "I'm the captain."

Su Yunruo didn't mince words, "But your voice is trembling."

"I'll go."

Spurred on, Lin Xingsen bravely walked to the door.

He looked like a warrior going to his death.

Lin Xingsen slowly pushed open the door. The "囍" character that Fu Huai had just seen had been torn to shreds, and red paper scraps were scattered all over the floor.

He leaned against the wall, his legs trembling so badly he kept stumbling. When he reached the corner, his legs suddenly went weak, and he lost control of his body, falling to the ground with all four limbs.

Lin Xingsen gritted his teeth and crawled forward, carrying the sacred responsibility and glory of being a "squad leader".

Snap

The lights near the floor came on, red, with a dim glow.

Lin Xingsen raised his head.

—In the dim light, a pair of red embroidered shoes hung in the air, not fitting properly, with one foot hooked and dangling.

The shoes were connected to blurry human figures with straight hair that obscured the entire face.

*Smack*

The two embroidered shoes were thrown to the ground.

Lin Xingsen shuddered.

I dared not move a muscle.

"Hehehehehe"

The eerie laughter sent chills down Lin Xingsen's spine, and the viewers in the live stream held their breath, afraid to make a sound.

Suddenly, the female ghost hanging in mid-air flew towards the camera.

【Ahhhhhh】

【Ahhhhhh】

That scared me to death.

Snap—

The female ghost felt light and landed on Lin Xingsen.

Lin Xingsen usually wears a sour face and acts arrogant and aloof, and even just now he was holding back.

Finally, at this moment, a scream was heard.

Who just called someone mentally challenged?

[Are you still being arrogant?]

The sound traveled down the corridor back to the study, and everyone shuddered. At that moment, the door was suddenly blown open by a gust of wind, and scraps of paper flew in from the floor.

Zheng Chengcheng hesitated and asked, "Should we go check on Xiaolin? He seems terrified."

“Okay.” Su Yunruo walked to the door first. “I’ll go first.”

Fan Xingchen followed, while the others, whose only source of emotional support was Su Yunruo, were afraid of being left behind and immediately caught up.

A group of people walked out of the house in a line.

Although it was dark outside, there was a faint light on the ground that helped them see the set clearly.

Around the corner, a body lay face down on the ground, covered by a red wedding dress, with hair disheveled on the ground.

The others looked like they were about to turn and run, but they didn't dare go back on their own, so Su Yunruo led them closer.

If Su Yun were truly bold, she would act as if she were strolling around her own home, even reaching out to grab the thing above.

“It’s a mannequin,” she said.

After saying that, he lifted the dummy and pulled the trembling Lin Xingsen up.

The night vision function clearly showed that the cool guy's mouth was pursed, his eyes were filled with tears, and he looked at Su Yunruo with a wronged and pitiful expression.

My poor, unfortunate son.

That's really scary for a twelve-year-old.

[Waaaaah, little baby, don't be afraid, come to Mommy's arms for a hug.]

[Su Yunruo, what are you staring at? Go and comfort him!]

Su Yunruo took a half step back. "I didn't scare you, don't look for me."

"..."

"..."

"..."

I dare say, Su Yunruo has quit drugs.

You are truly cold-hearted and ruthless.

The cold-hearted Su Yunruo pointed behind her, "Stand over there, I'll lead you out of here."

Lin Xingsen walked to the back of the line like a robot, with his hands and feet moving in unison. Su Yunruo led the way, and everyone walked in together.

"Hurry up, hurry up."

"There are doors on both sides, what if someone suddenly sticks out their hand?"

"Waaah, don't scare me."

Fortunately, the only function of this corridor was to take Fu Huai away and frighten Lin Xingsen. The group followed the path to a small indoor courtyard.

It's about 50 square meters, with LED screens covering the ceiling, playing a virtual sky, and pavilions and flower beds on the ground.

Three archery targets are hanging on the side wall.

Su Yunruo: "Alright, this should be a game segment, there are no horror elements. Everyone, look for any clues."

With the reassurance, everyone managed to calm down and followed Su Yunruo's instructions to search for clues everywhere.

"here."

Fan Xingchen pulled out a letter from a flowerpot, opened it and read it aloud: "Fan Zha Nan, it's hateful that I didn't discover your conspiracy in time. Remember this, I will haunt you even as a ghost."

Wen Qing Leng concluded: "Oh! This is a female ghost seeking revenge."

Zheng Chengcheng followed the instructions and turned over the flowerpots, but could not find any other information.

Just as everyone was paying attention to the clues, a loud "bang" suddenly rang out.

Everyone turned around and saw that Su Yunruo had picked up a bow at some point and shot a powerful arrow at the target, hitting the bullseye.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Lin Xingsen, standing nearby, looked grim.

What happened?

Rewind a few minutes, and Su Yunruo saw Lin Xingsen deep in thought with red eyes. Suddenly, she nudged him in the back with her elbow and said, "Hey, guess if I can hit the bullseye?"

Lin Xingsen turned his face away, clearly not wanting to talk to her.

"Let's bet if you're coming or not. If I hit the bullseye, you'll be walking in front."

"..."

I'll take that as a yes.

So, Su Yunruo hit the target on her own, and Lin Xingsen reluctantly became the unlucky one to lead the charge later.

The viewers in the live stream were absolutely laughing their heads off when they saw this.

[Cat: I told you I hated Su Yunruo, I absolutely loathe her.]

[In every episode, we see Su Yunruo bullying Lin Xingsen. Lin Xingsen has truly come to this show to overcome countless hardships.]

[This is so tragic, but I really want to laugh.]

Besides the viewers in the live stream, the guests at the scene were also used to Su Yunruo bullying Lin Xingsen and continued to focus on finding clues.

Fan Xingchen couldn't find any clues anywhere else. His gaze fell on the bullseye that Su Yunruo had just hit. Thinking of something, he said, "They probably wouldn't have deliberately left these things unused. We've already hit one bullseye, let's try shooting at the other two."

Su Yunruo raised an eyebrow, took out a new arrow, and placed it on the bow.

The camera then focused on Su Yunruo shooting an arrow.

The arm wasn't straight, nor was it the standard archery posture. The bow was far from the body. With a slight pull back, the arrow whizzed away.

[Hahaha, this is the ugliest archery pose I've ever seen a female celebrity use.]

[Su Yunruo, what are you doing! When shooting an arrow, you should put your face right up to the arrow so we can admire your beauty.]

Although the posture was rather awkward, at least it hit the bullseye.

Su Yunruo really has no idol image to maintain.

Su Yunruo picked up a new arrow, preparing to shoot at the third target.

Fan Xingchen walked over to Su Yunruo, eager to try, "I'll give it a shot too."

Su Yunruo raised an eyebrow, "Are you sure you can?"

"I want to try it too."

Su Yunruo handed the bow to him, "Then you can try, but don't draw it all the way back. Just shoot casually from this distance."

"Uh-huh."

Fan Xingchen touched the bow and arrow, and as if performing in a movie, he stylishly placed the arrow on the bow and pulled it back forcefully.

Su Yunruo: "Don't use so much force."

Fan Xingchen: "It's okay, I can pull it."

Fan Xingchen skillfully presented the audience with a stunningly handsome scene of drawing a bow. His naturally straight nose bridge made his profile even more striking against the backdrop of the bowstring.

So handsome!

[Fan Xingchen struck a standard pose, a stark contrast to Su Yunruo's earlier posture.]

Boom

A string was plucked.

The arrow flew straight to the ground.

"..."

"..."

"..."

As silence fell over the scene due to the arrow missing the target, Fan Xingchen suddenly frowned, his facial features scrunching up.

Su Yunruo burst out laughing.

Fan Xingchen dropped the bow in his hand to the ground and jumped up, swinging his arm.

"I already told you not to fill it so full."

【？？？】

What happened to Fan Xingchen?

He looked really handsome just now.

One knowledgeable spectator explained: "To shoot an arrow without protective gear and still dare to pull the bow so far, doesn't he want to hurt his hand?"

What's going on? I don't understand.

[You must wear protective gear when archery, especially on your arms, otherwise it will hurt a lot if you get hit by the bowstring.]

[Su Yunruo is definitely an expert; at such a short distance, there's no need to draw the bow fully. Doing so also prevents her hand from being hit by the string.]

[Serves you right for trying to look cool. You got slapped now.]

[Su Yunruo: Between being handsome and having hands, I choose hands.]

Those who don't heed the advice of their elders will suffer the consequences.

Ke Jinyang laughed in the live stream: [Hahahahahaha]

The drama of Su Yunruo not being able to hold back her laughter when Fan Xingchen was injured is 100%, and the drama of Ke Jinyang's gloating is 100,000%.

While Fan Xingchen was jumping around like a monkey, Su Yunruo finally remembered to check on her injured friend, "Are you alright?"

Fan Xingchen shook his head and waved his hand, "You shoot the third target first."

Su Yunruo followed the advice, picked up the bow, and shot another arrow at the target. At the other end of the entrance was a stone door that slowly opened.

Su Yunruo added in a chilling tone, "This kind of technical hurdle is actually quite easy after you've sacrificed yourself."

Fan Xingchen: "..."

"Squad leader, quick, lead the charge!"

Lin Xingsen: "..."

Lin Xingsen and Fan Xingchen: The most poisonous hearts are those of women.

Lin Xingsen and Fan Xingchen could form a victim alliance.
