【An entertainment industry novel, chronicling the female lead’s journey through showbiz.】
【No slacking, no meltdowns, no dating shows, no livestreams. She acts with dedication, films ...
The comments section erupted in laughter.
Ye Chu was in such a sorry state because she was incredibly unlucky. The production team had hung an elimination card on a tree, and when Ye Chu craned her neck to reach for the card with a bamboo pole, she wasn't paying attention to her footing, tripped over a protruding tree root, and fell headfirst into a nearby puddle!
The viewers in the live chat were laughing hysterically, feeling sorry for Ye Chu while simultaneously mocking her loudly. Having grown accustomed to seeing celebrities who were perfect in every way, Ye Chu's embarrassing situation seemed all the more real to them.
Ye Chu originally wanted to take a shower, but the voting time set by the program team had already passed, so she had no choice but to come and vote with this appearance.
Di Ting had been laughing the whole way, and Zheng Bohan had been laughing heartily for a long time without any restraint. Even the usually aloof Cheng Daiqing couldn't help but smile.
Shi Shan looked the mud figure up and down, then patted himself down, pulled out a few tissues, and handed them to Ye Chu: "How did you get like this?"
Ye Chu, trying to make light of the situation, said, "You know what, it's actually quite effective at preventing sunburn."
Meanwhile, Lu Huaizhang, who had just been resurrected, returned to the voting area, pulled out the golden Insight Card from his pile of treasures, and said to the program staff, "I want to use the Insight Card."
Fortunately, he was always cautious and kept the Insight Card as a Plan B after his resurrection. He absolutely could not afford to make a mistake this time.
The staff member politely asked, "Whose identity do you wish to ascertain?"
Lu Huaizhang hesitated for a moment.
The comments section was filled with wishes, and Lu Huaizhang turned around to look at the remaining five people.
The answer is not Zheng Bohan, but the remaining four people are all suspects.
Pen.
Tree.
A life with a hundred faces.
Amitabha.
etc.
"The observer saw the truth three times."
In other words, the observer is on the platform, and every clue they see is genuine.
However, the observer's abilities that Lu Huaizhang observed clearly indicated that, "After each round, you can view one clue obtained by other guests. One clue at a time, true or false."
Under what circumstances can we guarantee that every clue Shen Tai sees is the "truth"?
Unless, all four clues from the first and second rounds are true!
Pen. On his first day in the Ninth Bureau, Li Yiming stole Lu Huaizhang's Parker gold pen.
A tree. There are leaves on the tree.
A life with a hundred faces. Lu Huaizhang recalled that he had vaguely heard Zheng Bohan mention that Ye Chu started out as an extra and had suffered a lot.
Amitabha. Emperor Pingzhao, on the night his biological father died, uttered a single word—
Amitabha!
Lu Huaizhang's breathing became rapid.
If he wasn't mistaken, Ruguan TV had once again tricked its guests; those clues that were supposedly "half true and half false" were actually all true!
Props, elimination cards, and supposed conspiracies are all just smoke and mirrors by the production team. In reality, a careful analysis of the clues will reveal the obvious answer!
He was certain, he was convinced, he was certain that the undercover agent must be Ye Chu!
Lu Huaizhang wanted to choose the "Ye Chu" option immediately, but his usual caution made him decide to verify it one last time.
"Ye Chu," Lu Huaizhang said, emphasizing each word, "I need to find out Ye Chu's identity."
It was this caution that cost him that crucial, critical moment—
The comments section, oblivious to Lu Huaizhang's complex and conflicting thoughts, continued to chatter:
Ultimately, Li Yiming won over Director Lu's heart despite his extremely low credibility.
Does nobody care whether Zheng Bohan is an undercover agent or not?
Shi Shan is so gentle with Ye Chu...
[This editor is really shipping them! Di Ting is so carefree with Ye Chu, but Shi Shan is so thoughtful.]
[What was the Director thinking just now? His expression was quite frightening.]
The muddy little leaves are so cute, Mommy licks them!
[Licked a mouthful of mud]
[Who exactly is Zheng Bohan? He's neither a lurker nor an undercover agent.]
[I'm so nervous, so the undercover agent really is Ye Chu, right?]
[Holy crap! Look! What is Ye Chu doing in the corner?]
The camera panned to the side.
Shi Shan was chatting with Zheng Bohan and Cheng Daiqing. Di Ting stood next to Ye Chu, and from the outside, the two appeared to be very intimate. However, when the camera zoomed in, everyone realized there was more to the story.
Di Ting cleverly blocked Ye Chu's movements.
Three elimination cards were laid out in front of Ye Chu, who held a pen in his hand. The camera zoomed in on the three cards, and on each card, the "Name" field was filled with the name Lu Huaizhang!
Ye Chu glanced at Lu Huaizhang, who was taking out his Insight Card.
Ye Chu closed her eyes slightly.
Observers and manipulators have been eliminated.
Di Ting is a destroyer.
There are five identities left, excluding the ones she already knows—
Ye Chu glanced at her palm, which was covered in dirt and mud, and found a crumpled clue card in her hand!
The camera focuses on the clue card, which reads:
"Guardians protect endless life."
[Holy crap? This card?]
When did Ye Chu get this clue card? I don't remember it.
What does this card mean? Does the Guardian have infinite lives? Can't be eliminated?
[Could it be when Shi Shan hands me a tissue...?]
[Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, my brain's on fire!]
Ye Chu quickly wrote the words "Guardian" on the first card.
The staff member politely asked Lu Huaizhang, "Whose identity do you wish to ascertain?"
No response.
Ye Chu quickly wrote the words "traitor" on the second card.
Lu Huaizhang said, "Ye Chu."
No response.
Ye Chu glanced at Lu Huaizhang, then almost flamboyantly wrote three large characters in cursive script on the third card:
Leader!
The staff member in front of Lu Huaizhang slowly opened his mouth—
"Leader Lu Huaizhang is eliminated."
A cold, mechanical voice rang out, and everyone stared in astonishment in Lu Huaizhang's direction!
Just a second before Lu Huaizhang's Insight Card was about to take effect, Lu Huaizhang was eliminated again!
The barrage of comments exploded almost instantly, layer upon layer, completely obscuring the screen. Even the sparse mode was no longer effective.
Sun Xiaoxiao was so excited that she had to temporarily turn off the bullet comments to enjoy this thrilling moment.
Before the staff could answer all of Ye Chu's questions about her identity, Lu Huaizhang was taken away again. His grief-stricken expression and the way he waved and stomped his feet, combined with Ru Guan's slapstick, tragic music, created a particularly comical scene.
Ye Chu let out a long sigh of relief, patted Di Ting on the shoulder, and whispered, "Choose one of the three people standing over there and eliminate them."
