After listening, Ye Zhixi understood what Ye Qi meant: "By rotating people twice, the details observed by different people will be more comprehensive. This will also lay the foundation for the subsequent elimination process. Let's start with this and make adjustments based on it later."
They had too little information about Wen Er, and their mere act of reaching out was insufficient.
We can only proceed with this plan for now.
Having finalized the strategy, Ye Qi said, "Without further ado, let's go and check the route now."
It took Ye Qi and Ye Zhixi twenty minutes to check the entire hospital.
The abandoned hospital has a similar land area to a normal hospital.
It has eight floors.
There is no elevator.
Each layer has a different structure.
It's basically a mess. You need to watch your step when you run to avoid tripping. Some doors can't be opened, and some doors are even more chaotic inside once they are open.
Therefore, some places are off-limits, while others can be misled by the room layout.
All wards, departments, operating rooms... all places where we can hide must be used properly, otherwise we will only drive ourselves into a corner and let Wen Er succeed.
Just as they finished checking all the rooms, they sat at the top of the stairs on the second floor, ready to escape as soon as Wen Er came up from the first floor.
Sitting at the top of the stairs, they tried to plan their route in their minds and remember the rooms that were off-limits.
Seeing them sitting at the bottom of the stairs, Shen Lan looked completely bewildered and kindly advised, "Why are you sitting here? Aren't you going to look for clues? Oh right, once you've gathered all the clues, the twelve men in black will come out to arrest you."
After exchanging glances, Ye Qi and Ye Zhixi quickly deciphered the answer from each other's expressions.
Ye Qi rested her elbows on her knees, propped her chin on her hands, and casually said, "I'm tired. I'll sit here and rest for a while. You guys go look for clues first."
Shen Lan had no choice but to leave dejectedly: "Fine."
As soon as Shen Lan left, Ye Zhixi's face immediately darkened: "It seems that only our group has special rules, and the others are different from us."
Ye Qi's expression turned serious, and he nodded: "Yes, given the current situation, either Director Deng did this on purpose to make Group A special case."
Ye Zhixi chimed in, "Or it could be Wen Er's personal act."
Wen Er's temperament was different; it wasn't the temperament of an NPC. He had a cold demeanor, with a hint of shrewdness hidden in the corner of his eyes. He would deliberately exude hostility from time to time. The moment he reached out his hand, Ye Qi could see the thick calluses on his palms, indicating that he was definitely a martial artist.
His demeanor was very similar to the other personality of the older sister I met for the first time; the traces he left behind were too much like those of this type of person, with the shrewdness and calculation of someone who had been in the business world for a long time.
Director Deng's mischievous approach involves bringing everyone in to create atmosphere, rather than choosing one group to handle things independently.
Without individual live streaming rooms, the allocation of live streaming screens is limited, making it impossible to choose a unique group. Instead, it is more valuable to engage the entire group emotionally.
If Director Deng wanted to create a unique angle to boost the popularity of the variety show, he would have done so in the first season or even earlier, but he didn't.
Even the previous undercover game required everyone to participate in the prelude, which clearly shows that Director Deng is not that kind of person; he pursues the whole team.
The rules Wen Er proposed were clearly just for fun, to test them.
Ye Zhixi crossed her arms, her face grave: "His skills are not simple, and his aura is not like that of an ordinary person. Rather, it is the kind of intimidating presence that comes with being in a high position for a long time. When I first saw him, he seemed weak and incompetent, giving people a sense of aloofness and purity."
"The change in atmosphere later was too abrupt, as if it was deliberately giving us a hint."
Ye Qi remained silent for a long time before deciding to interrupt the baseless speculation: "We still have too few clues and can only make wild guesses... Instead of wasting time trying to figure out what he's thinking, we should conserve our energy and prepare for the game."
"Um."
The last twenty minutes.
An announcement came over the loudspeaker: "Except for Ye Qi and Ye Zhixi's group, all guests and men in black, please leave the 'abandoned hospital'. Our staff will be going in shortly to adjust the cameras and equipment on site."
The broadcast was repeated several times.
All the guests left with doubts, and some inevitably bumped into them.
Seeing Ye Qi's solemn expression, and considering what was said on the broadcast, Xiang Zixing knew that now was not a good time to press for answers. He didn't say much, only leaving with the words, "Good luck."
"Um."
After all the guests left, staff quickly came in to add more cameras, cleaned up the scene, and then left shortly afterward.
The countdown broadcast sounded like a celebratory announcement that an exciting show was about to begin: "Three minutes left."
Ye Qi and Ye Zhixi tensed up, ready to go.
The ward.
Wen Er sat on the hospital bed, her hands resting on her knees, her long hair, now unbound, cascading down like a waterfall, her face calm as she looked down at the floor.
