"Bang--"
A black hearse fell off a cliff and crashed into the turbulent waves, shattering into pieces.
The waves crashing against the rocks splashed up several meters high, eventually carrying white foam as they pushed the seawater back into the ocean depths.
Scattered car parts floated on the sea, and a humanoid figure, whose shape was indistinct, drifted slowly before finally sinking to the bottom of the sea.
In the scene, one side is the azure blue of the sea surface pierced by the sunlight, while the other side is a boundless black abyss, mercilessly devouring all creatures that appear in the sea.
As a string of soft bubbles disappeared, the figure fell completely into the abyss and was never seen again.
—From that moment on, Shu Yuxiu completely disappeared from this world…

The third version of the finale of "No Bait" is also the last scene filmed by the "No Bait" crew, officially ending the series.
Two people in diving suits swam quickly toward the figure that was still falling, then skillfully grabbed each other's arms and swam to the surface together.
"puff--"
The three of them broke through the water together. Xiao He let out a long breath, removed his nasal congestion, and coughed a few times.
"Is it okay, Teacher Xiao?"
One of the divers asked in a strained voice.
"no problem."
Xiao He wiped the water off his face, wiped his wet hair on top of his head, and then shook his head.
"You guys came just in time, thanks, brother."
This scene was filmed on location. Although multiple safety measures were in place, there was still some risk involved. The fact that it was filmed in one take with the cooperation of all parties greatly reduced the danger.
"It's nothing, congratulations to Teacher Xiao on wrapping up filming."
"Congratulations."
"Thanks."
Xiao He swam ashore with the two men, while Ning Jiaqi was already waiting on the beach.
Upon seeing Xiao He, he smiled and handed over a red envelope: "Happy wrap-up."
"Thank you, Director Ning."
Xiao He accepted the red envelope and asked tentatively with some curiosity, "Since Director Ning gave me a calming envelope, can I assume that Shu Yuxiu is really dead?"
Ning Jiaqi chuckled: "Take a guess? Maybe it's just an ordinary wrap-up gift."
"All right."
Xiao He shrugged. "Then it seems we'll have to see what Director Ning decides."
The final part of the film was shot by Xiao He using several versions of the story. How to piece these fragmented pieces together, how to connect them completely, and how to explain the ending of "No Bait"... To be honest, Xiao He is quite looking forward to it.
"Then just wait and see," Ning Jiaqi patted Xiao He on the shoulder with a cheerful smile. "You'll be amazed."
He then pushed Xiao He forward, changing the subject: "Come on, you have to come to the wrap party tonight."
"All right."
Xiao He had no idea what the Ning family was up to, so he could only let them push him along, and politely asked, "Director Ning, when are you about to leave?"
“We might stay a few more days,” Ning Jiaqi replied. “If you really like this island, you can stay a few more days and come with us then.”
Most of the actors in the film crew have already left, and now the crew members on the island are also preparing to evacuate one after another.
Xiao He naturally wouldn't stay on the island forever. Although he was reluctant to leave the island, he had been abroad for too long and wanted to return to China. Besides, there were still many things waiting for him at the studio.
"I'll head back now too," Xiao He said.
"Okay, we'll arrange it for you."
"Thank you, Director Ning."
