Chapter 54 Huaning TV Station (End)
Except for Xia Bai, all six players in the top group underwent full-body plastic surgery.
Because they had the advantage of a superior group, they did the full card on Saturday afternoon and evening, just like last week.
The other two groups knew what their group was thinking, so just in case, those who wanted to have plastic surgery went on Friday and Saturday morning. Tang Ying from the lower group and You Mohan from the middle group also had full-body plastic surgery.
Some people didn't expect the top group to be so cruel. They only had two or three plastic surgery items. Seeing how excited they were, it was too late to have more plastic surgery, including baldness.
In fact, Baldy had guessed this possibility, but he still couldn't have a full body plastic surgery.
He had already seen from Zhong Zicang that even if he had undergone full-body plastic surgery for just one night, his reactions would be much slower. He played a corpse in the performance that day, so it didn't have much of an impact, and his teammates, including the stage controller Xia Bai, were all helping him.
He is different. If he becomes slow and clumsy, Ling Changye will definitely take the opportunity to kill him.
Every team needs a clear-headed decision-maker. In the Half Moon Group, only You Mohan had a full body plastic surgery, while Shi Danfeng only had her nose fixed and her entire body skin replaced.
He then carefully analyzed the current situation.
At present, the middle group is at the biggest disadvantage. They only have two people left, and the other player has not yet undergone full plastic surgery, and it seems that he is about to collapse. The middle group is most likely to become the lower group, and two people will be eliminated.
Their lower group and upper group seem to be on par with each other. No, in fact, the upper group seems to have a greater advantage. They have five fully renovated players, and Xia Bai who always has some evil ideas. This lineup is terrifying.
If they are still in the middle group, then one person will be eliminated. Tang Ying has undergone full body plastic surgery without any worries, and the most likely ones to be eliminated are him and Shi Danfeng.
He was more likely to be eliminated, because he left a bad impression on the judges, and his part in the performance was mediocre. Ling Changye must have deliberately assigned him a bad part.
After this analysis, the bald man not only did not panic, but instead calmed down as if he had made a decision.
At 11:30 that night, Xia Bai was applying face cream and eye cream carefully when he heard a knock on the door. He put away the face cream and eye cream, walked to the door, and asked softly, "Who is it?"
"It's me." Wang Chuang said.
Wang Chuang was one of the remaining six people in their group, a somewhat silly guy. He was originally from the Shengyou Guild, and later made a corpse contract with him like everyone else, and today he also went for a full body plastic surgery like everyone else.
He doesn't talk much and is usually quite silent, probably because of his sensitive identity. But Xia Bai knew that in the end, his heart was with their group, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to give him the body and become a cadaver teacher at Heping Medical College, otherwise, he wouldn't have cried so hard when Zhong Zicang died.
"Xia Bai, I have something to tell you. It's just some final explanation." Wang Chuang said while standing outside the door.
"Come in." The door was opened.
Wang Chuang stood at the door and slowly raised his head. Just as he was about to move his hands, he saw the person in front of him and his pupils suddenly dilated, "Gu, Gu Quankun?!"
Wang Chuang was shocked when he saw Gu Quankun opening the door for him. "You are not dead? No, that's not right. How come you are in this game?"
He tiptoed and looked up, and saw Xia Bai looking at him quietly from behind.
"You, you..." Wang Chuang said in surprise: "Your skills?"
Xia Bai asked: "How do you know so much about Gu Quankun?"
After the plastic surgery, Wang Chuang smiled in a standard and handsome way. "I was about to become a formal player of Shengyou Guild. Of course I know about the veteran players of Shengyou Guild like Gu Quankun."
"Xia Bai, this," he pointed at Gu Quankun in front of him, "what are you doing?"
Xia Bai: "Anti-tooth for an anti-tooth, you come to see me with Wang Chuang's face, and I will receive you with Gu Quankun's corpse."
The bald guy, whose real name is Liu Qiang, is said to be the "Man of Thousand Faces" in the game.
In the first stage, he performed face-changing, with real, bloody faces. Combined with his game identity, Xia Bai roughly guessed his skills. He could tear off the faces of players, or even NPCs, and imitate them from beginning to end.
Xia Bai said stupidly, "You don't want your group to lose, but it's too late to improve your group now, so you want to sabotage our group. You think I'm the one who dominates our group's stage, so you want to hurt me, or even kill me."
"But 404 is a program group with strict hierarchy. I am a high-level trainee. If you kill me, you will also be severely punished. So you want to use someone else's identity, so you have to tear off a face, a useful face that can talk to me in the middle of the night."
"The other trainees in the top group were wary of you. It was impossible for you to enter their room and tear them apart without making any noise. Only Wang Chuang was originally on your side. Maybe he owed you something, so you entered his room and had this opportunity."
Exactly.
The bald man looked at Xia Bai with a dazed face, telling him his plan and even his mental journey. He began to panic and took a step back.
Xia Bai: "You hurt Wang Chuang, you should be punished."
Before the bald man could react, Xia Bai suddenly ran out of the room, kicked open Wang Chuang's door, and screamed in fear: "Murder! Someone is killing someone!"
“…”
It’s not in vain that you’ve been on stage so many times. You can even act terrifying with a silly face.
At his scream, not only the trainees came out, but the staff also came.
The physical education teacher held her blood whip, with a cold aura all over her body, "Who is not sleeping in the middle of the night and making a noise here?"
Xia Bai immediately complained: "Teacher, Wang Chuang from our group just had plastic surgery at your place, and his face was torn off. However, it seems that there is another Wang Chuang here."
The physical education teacher looked at Wang Chuang, who was lying on the bed with blood all over his head and had fainted, then looked at the bald man in the direction Xia Bai pointed. The blood whip was dancing slightly as if it had its own consciousness.
“Teacher, teacher, it’s not like that.” The bald man retreated in panic, explaining: “Listen to me, it’s not… ah!”
The blood whip did not hit anyone like before, but crawled onto the bald man's face. The lines and spikes of the blood whip turned into small tentacles like blood vessels, tearing his skin along the edge of the bald man's face.
The bald man fell to the ground in pain and tried to use the momentum to roll over to get rid of the small tentacles, but the blood vessels grew as he moved, entwining around him and binding him, tearing off the skin on his face that did not belong to him.
A strange face appeared.
This face is still not bald.
He was afraid that his face would be injured and affect his performance, so he replaced it with someone else's face.
The physical education teacher stared at that face and sneered, "I said, if it happens again, you should be punished."
The blood whip tentacles continued to tear at his face.
The bald man's screams echoed in the dormitory area for a long time. Pieces of skin were torn off his face, and his facial features seemed to move when they were thrown to the ground, as if he was trying to escape.
Maybe he realized that the physical education teacher would not let him go, so when he tore the fifth picture, it became Baldy's own half-plastic reconstructed face.
It was still torn off mercilessly by the blood whip.
The physical education teacher turned his face around in his hands as if it were a handkerchief and said, "This is the punishment you deserve."
In the dormitory corridor, only the screams of the bald man could be heard. The other trainees were silent. They once again realized how powerful the physical education teacher was. In the special map, the NPCs were almost impossible to resist and had to follow the rules of the game.
Zhang Runyue took a deep breath, faced her terrifying gaze, and took a step forward, "Teacher, Wang Chuang's misfortune is completely unprovoked. His reconstructed face is gone, and he is suffering from such pain."
The physique teacher glanced at the bed and picked up Wang Chuang's face skin, "Carry him to the plastic surgery room and fix him now."
"Oh!" Ding Jingchen and Zheng Shaoning immediately carried Wang Chuang out.
"Go back to bed!" Before the physical education teacher left, he stared at them viciously and said, "Don't let me hear your voices again."
Xia Bai looked at Ling Changye and Yang Mei. Ling Changye smiled and nodded at him without saying anything.
Before he entered, he saw You Mohan and Shi Danfeng looking at each other.
Everyone entered the dormitory with different thoughts.
Wang Chuang's face was restored that night, and he came to apologize to Xia Bai as soon as the bell rang the next morning. If he hadn't been stopped, he would have kowtowed and confessed his guilt.
"I'm sorry, he saved my life in a game, and I...I didn't agree to it, but he knocked me out when I was caught off guard."
"It's okay." Xia Bai said, "Forget about it. Don't let it affect your performance."
Wang Chuang also knew the priorities and nodded repeatedly, "Hey! Hey hey!"
Xia Bai looked up and saw a stranger standing not far away in the corridor. He quickly realized that this was Bald Liu Qiang. His own face skin was torn off by the physical education teacher, and he used someone else's face skin.
The physique teacher might allow him to use this face because it was she who tore off his own face, but even if there was a face available, it had never been reshaped, not even once.
It was foreseeable that if they didn't get the highest score, he would be the first to be eliminated.
He stared at Xia Bai hatefully.
Xia Bai showed no emotion. He asked with a blank face, "Liu Qiang, can you give me your body? To keep Gu Quankun company?"
“…”
At nine o'clock on Sunday morning, the last team exhibition match officially began.
Four large screens slowly descended.
【Here we come! First! 】
[Wow, is this going to end? I’m so reluctant to let go, my beautiful girl. 】
[Wow! Today's trainees are so eye-catching! I'm looking forward to it! ]
Producer: "Dear audience, the last match of this season's Idol 404 is about to begin. The trainees who will debut this season will be born at noon today. Now please allow me to read out the rules and scoring criteria for this match."
"Three groups of trainees will go on stage to perform in the order of top group, middle group and bottom group. Every trainee must participate. Before each performance, please ask the audience to rate each trainee's appearance and group talent performance. This time we will still use the scoring criteria of the last individual assessment and include the number of audiences watching a single performance into the scoring system."
After reading out the competition rules and scoring criteria as usual, the producer said, "Well, the competition is officially about to begin. First, please welcome the trainees from the top group."
Six trainees from the top group went up, and almost no one was nervous.
Zhang Runyue stood in the middle and said, "Good morning, judges and audience. We are trainees from the top group. Today we will be performing ballroom dance for you."
【ah? 】
【Ballroom dancing?】
[I've been waiting for you for a week, and all you show me is ballroom dancing? ]
[What? Was it Xia Bai who came up with it? Let him come up with the show. Who wants to watch you guys do ballroom dancing?]
The six people saw the barrage, but they were not nervous at all.
The five trainees looked at Xia Bai. Xia Bai snapped his fingers with a blank face. A corpse appeared behind each of the six people. The other six dead trainees from the top group appeared on the stage in an orderly manner.
【What the hell! 】
[Oh my god! Why did they appear? ]
[Wait, are they going to do a ballroom dance with a corpse? A corpse can dance? So accurately?]
Not to mention the audience, even the three judges were stunned.
The physical education teacher was getting a little restless and really wanted to go back and see if there was a missing body in her morgue, and whether the one on the stage was real and whether it was hers.
After standing on the stage and letting the audience and judges see them, Xia Bai summoned these corpses again. It was Zhang Runyue who suggested it.
They were confident in their group, but in case something unexpected happened and they became an elimination group, they couldn't let Xia Bai, who hadn't had plastic surgery, be on the elimination list. They made him summon a corpse in public on the stage to let everyone know that the corpse they liked was summoned by Xia Bai.
After the body came out, they didn't waste any time.
The six men turned around, faced their companions behind them, and held out their hands to them.
Six corpses, slowly putting their hands in theirs.
Ballroom dancing is the most common social dance on campus. The main attraction of the welcome party of Heping Medical College, which has not yet started, is that seniors invite freshmen to dance with them.
It is a welcome, an acquaintance, and the beginning of friendship.
Xia Bai jumped ahead of time, on this stage, surrounded by several seniors.
Some of the twelve trainees in the top group came from different dormitories and boarded the same bus. When they arrived at Quan Guang, they hurried to various game locations and simply nodded to each other when they met. Some came from three different clubs and were originally wary of each other. After forming a group, they were overwhelmed by the assessment every day.
They had never really known each other.
Xia Bai held Zhong Zicang's hand.
Zhang Runyue held Tian Sihan's hand.
Zheng Shaoning held Hu Yihang's hand.
…
From this moment on, they get to know each other well and make up for the beginning of friendship at the end.
[It's probably saliva flowing out of the eyes. ]
[One after another, the kings and queens are dancing with my family. Who can resist this? 】
[They have really become mature and perfect trainees. Let's just debut as a group. I'm serious.]
[I watched it with a magnifying glass, and surprisingly, no one was out of place, and everyone's emotions were on point.]
The producer said: "Audience members who have not voted yet, please vote as soon as possible. The voting channel for the top group will be closed in one minute. In addition, in the last game, the results of each group will be announced after the three groups have performed."
"Now please ask the trainees in the middle group to prepare."
A minute later, the trainees from the top group stepped down from the stage, and two trainees from the middle group stepped up.
You Mohan and Shan Jiayang stood on the stage.
You Mohan, who had undergone full plastic surgery, did not speak but looked at Shi Danfeng below. There was unexpected tenderness in the smile on that completely plastic surgery face.
All the trainees were looking at them. They knew that after today's competition, they and their spouse might be separated by the Yin and Yang.
If the middle group scores the lowest, both people in the middle group will be eliminated, and the one who dies is You Mohan.
If the lower group has the lowest score, two people will be eliminated, the most likely ones are Baldy and Shi Danfeng, and Shi Danfeng may die.
Unless the top group has the lowest score, there is a chance that both of them will survive, but judging by the reactions in the comments, this possibility is very small.
You Mohan kept looking at Shi Danfeng without saying anything, and the producer frowned.
Zhang Runyue whispered, "They have a very good relationship as husband and wife. Does that mean You Mohan is going to give up the performance, give up on himself, and let Shi Danfeng get out alive?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Shi Danfeng stretch out her two hands and make a heart shape to You Mohan. In one of her hands was a moon necklace and a photo.
You Mohan nodded and said, "Good morning, judges and audience. Today we will bring you an organ performance."
【What the hell! 】
[Oh my god! I have never seen an organ show in my life! ]
[Many people will never see this in their lifetime! Tell them to come and see it, or they will regret it forever if they miss it! ]
[This is You Mohan, right? How can he perform organ performances? ]
[I heard there was an organ show, so I rushed over! ]
[Organ show?! Where? Where!]
【Here I come, I haven't watched Idol 404 in my eight lifetimes. I heard there was an organ show, so I ran over excitedly. 】
The trainees were also shocked, even Ling Changye raised his eyes to look at You Mohan.
Xia Bai was confused and asked Zhang Runyue in a low voice: "Senior sister, what is an organ performer?"
"You don't know that it's too normal. Not many people have seen or heard of this kind of performance, because this kind of performance is banned in our country, just like the freak show. There are some underground performances in Mang Country." The medical student talked about the human body very frankly. When she talked to Xia Bai, it was like she was talking about the parts of the human body in a medical class. "Try to add a word in front of this performance."
Organ performance.
What organ performance?
After Xia Bai understood, he looked at You Mohan in surprise.
It's no wonder that the trainees were so surprised. The Half Moon Group is a well-known club. Because of its place of origin and the viciousness of its members, the president and the president's wife are regarded as mysterious masters in the minds of many players. They didn't expect that You Mohan would actually perform this.
To everyone's surprise and shock, the staff had already moved drums and other props onto the stage, and the performance began.
Xia Bai looked at Shi Danfeng. He was not the only one looking at her. Everyone saw that she was looking at You Mohan tenderly.
Shi Danfeng always had a smile on her face as she watched him start the performance. She wasn't surprised at all, as if it wasn't her first time seeing it.
Players have various speculations about their identities and skills, but there is still no accurate answer.
Of course they don't know because they only guess at the clouds and don't look into the mud.
They will never know what kind of life they once lived or what kind of world they came from.
It's just something they've done a thousand times.
Yes, You Mohan can perform this, very well, because he is an organ performer and she is a □□. In that dark underground, they were together, slept hand in hand every day, and adopted a boy who was abandoned by someone unknown.
He performed on the stage, she was outside receiving customers, and their son was holding an iron plate and running among the audience collecting money.
They are very happy.
If it wasn’t for my son who was also kidnapped by that group of people, I don’t know where he would be taken.
If the game had not come into being and they had acquired career-related skills, they would not have been able to leave the underground park, nor would they have known that their previous lives were miserable in the eyes of the world.
They don't think so, and they don't bother to integrate into the values of the outside world. They just form a community with people who have had similar experiences to go looking for their son who has been taken away for many years.
Shi Danfeng looked at You Mohan tenderly, and then at Shan Jiayang who was still holding on. He was the most persistent when he was in that place, enduring torture time and time again, and had developed the hardest soul.
She closed her eyes, then opened them again with a smile, using her skills to help them.
She didn't need to look to know how crazy the comments were.
People are like this, they look down upon things but love to watch. Voyeurism, curiosity and lust are the darkness in their bones, spreading from birth to death. Even if they become ghosts, the darkness of human nature is still there.
The other trainees intuitively felt how crazy the comments were after Shi Danfeng closed her eyes. They became blurry and it was impossible to tell what they were saying.
The skills of You Mohan and Shi Danfeng were perfectly matched to the performance, like a crazy fire that burned down the entire studio.
After the performance, even the three judges were unable to recover from the performance for a while.
Zhang Runyue whispered, "They might win."
Yes.
Because in the next two competitions, the number of viewers watching the performance was included in the scoring system, which is one of the manifestations of traffic that the producers have always talked about.
It turned out that the talent instructor had already told them the secret to the final competition. She had been talking about attracting attention, and as long as you dig deep, the effect will be so amazing.
Producer: "The performance of the middle group was very exciting. Now we would like to invite the lower group."
Xia Bai immediately looked at Ling Changye and Yang Mei. The unexpected performance of the middle group unexpectedly reversed the situation, which made Xia Bai vaguely worried.
The bald man with an ordinary face was already shaking and sweating nervously under the strong intimidation of the middle group.
In the last competition where all the contestants performed perfectly and amazingly, he held the lower-ranking group back too much. Even with the "lover filter" and the "dad filter", their group might really become the lower-ranking group again.
After seeing how the president and his wife cooperated just now, he now felt that Shi Danfeng should not be eliminated. So, if two were eliminated, the other one besides the bald man would definitely be from the business department.
As he expected, the bald guy was indeed a drag and Shi Danfeng would not appear on the elimination list.
This time the top group's performance was very attentive. There was no perfunctory attitude as in last time. It was a complete group performance entitled "Everyone Picks Up Corpses".
This is a performance based on Ling Changye's immortal body. It is a story about a hero who was dismembered and killed on the battlefield. His body was thrown everywhere by the enemy. People from all over the country picked up the body and came together from thousands of miles away to piece together a complete body for him. In tears, the hero opened his eyes again.
The piecing together of corpses has already appealed to the love of ghost audiences, and this is a double reversal performance of a living person turning into a corpse and the corpse opening its eyes, which should have been very effective.
But the bald man was too slow. When Tang Ying ran over with the body in his arms, he suddenly fell to the ground with a red face, and his body swelled up in several places. Then, the bald man also showed abnormality, and something was stirring under his clothes.
Xia Bai's hands were entangled in Xue Mu's hair again. He now knew what the medium was that caused You Mohan's body to expand.
It is desire, specifically, green desire.
He can use it to make the human body expand and explode, and Shi Danfeng's skill is the charm system. The game management bureau records that when the two of them entered the game at the same time, they had never encountered an opponent.
Now they are cooperating again, using the performance of the two people in the middle group just now, it is not just their performance, they are setting up the net at the same time.
Many people were caught in the net, the most deadly ones were the bald man and Tang Ying on the stage.
After the performance, Ling Changye's eyes were clear, but when he looked at You Mohan and Shi Danfeng, he frowned, just for a moment, and then smiled at them.
You Mohan and Shi Danfeng also smiled at him.
They seemed to be eating in the cafeteria that day, looking at the photo of their son together, polite and harmonious.
Producer: "Please invite the other two groups of trainees to the stage. It's an exciting moment. Which trainees will debut today? Let's take a look at the scores of each group first."
On the big screen, three small white chrysanthemums began to rotate, and when they finished rotating, three green cylinders began to rise rapidly.
The cylinders on both sides stopped, the top group was still suppressing the bottom group, but the middle group was still rising, barely surpassing the top group.
This time the producer did not announce the elimination list. He said: "Everyone is most concerned about the debut list. Which trainees of our show will be able to debut successfully this season? First of all, let us congratulate Xia Bai."
As soon as the producer finished speaking, Xia Bai heard that familiar voice.
[Congratulations to the corpse collector Xia Bai for successfully unlocking the special map of Huaning TV Station. ]
