The second room features a painting on the wall: *The Last Supper* by Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci, depicting the biblical scene of Jesus' last supper with his twelve disciples. The painting meticulously portrays the figures' fear, anger, doubt, and confession, as well as their gestures, gazes, and actions, making it the most famous work on this subject. It is housed in the Santa Maria delle Grazie Church in Milan, Italy. *Girl with a Pearl Earring* depicts a young girl in a brown dress and a yellow and blue headscarf. Her extraordinary presence, serene and composed demeanor, and hesitant expression are vividly portrayed. She seems to possess a subtle yet melancholic, almost imperceptible sadness. A fleeting glance back makes her shine like a beacon in the darkness, radiant and captivating, imbuing her simple emotions with a purifying power. Only one painting remains: *Love and Pain*.
Suya unhesitatingly chose "Love and Pain," a painting depicting a woman kneeling and kissing the neck of a man seeking love, like a vampire draining his soul; the man enduring the pain of love is Munch himself. In the European art world, there is a deeply moving and shocking portrait: a man struggling to his death in the arms of a female vampire, her crimson hair scattered across her fair, delicate skin. This is Munch's masterpiece. When this work was first unveiled a century ago, it immediately caused a strong reaction.
Su Linxi asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why did you choose this one?"
"Because the counts lacked love. They didn't understand emotions."
"I see. But you are truly knowledgeable, sister; I've never heard of this painting before."
"This painting also has another name, 'Vampire.' Second brother, pick up the painting and let's go outside."
After saying that, Su Linxi, Junjunzi, Li Xiulu, and An Yadi carefully took the painting down. The painting was huge, almost taking up half the wall; they didn't know what the production team was thinking, making such a large painting.
After the painting was taken down, everyone discovered that there really was a door inside.
Unfortunately, there was a combination lock on the door. It was a six-digit combination lock.
"Damn, my show is too scheming." William Su suddenly felt a little discouraged after seeing this.
"Without any clues, how are we supposed to guess the password?" Junjunzi thought so too. Moreover, she felt that this episode was completely useless to her, even though she had originally come with the intention of just going through the motions. But the fact that a girl younger than her was always taking the lead made her feel a little uncomfortable.
As for Lishulu and Anyadi, although they didn't say a word while looking at the combination lock, their expressions showed their helplessness towards the production team.
On the live stream screen
Urging for more updates: [This production team is really cunning.]
Urging for an update: [I thought I had solved the mystery, but each link in the chain is deeper than the last.]
Want more updates? : [I really want to send the director a knife; seeing my idol William Su's expression breaks my heart.]
Fan: [I was playing the most sophisticated trick, the trick the production team used.]
Fan 1: [I wonder when they'll be able to get out.]
Fan 2: [Hopefully the goddess can solve this.]
"What else can we do? Let's split up and look for clues to the password." Although Su Linxi was a little discouraged, the show still had to be filmed.
"Sister, I'll go downstairs and take a look."
"Need not."
Suya said.
Su Linxi stopped obediently just as she was about to leave.
Su Ya glanced at the combination lock, walked straight forward, and gently twisted it until it clicked open.
“Ah, that’s easy,” William Su said.
Suya had already observed this. The combination lock was just a distraction provided by the production team. There wasn't actually a combination lock.
If they encountered other people, they might search everywhere for clues about the password, and then they wouldn't need to go out today because there simply isn't a password.
The lock was unlocked, and the door opened.
They went out.
There are no more levels after that.
The production team didn't expect them to come out so quickly; according to their staff's testing schedule, three rounds of checks would have been enough.
"Congratulations to all the guests, you have successfully passed the test." The director's voice sounded somewhat strained.
Suya looked at the sky; it was around 1 p.m.
It would have been even faster if there hadn't been some delays.
Please update soon: [This show's production team is really cunning; if you didn't know this, you'd be spending a whole day trying to decipher their secrets.]
Urging for an update: [The person upstairs has hit the nail on the head; it's not something that can be explained in a whole day.]
Urging for more updates: [Haha, the director is devastated. His voice practically leaps out of his chest.]
He probably didn't expect that there would be a human bug among the guests. (He's probably also worried about the plot hole.)
Urging for an update: [Urging for an update: [Haha, I just want to see the director's expression. He meticulously designed this level, and it was solved in seconds. I want to know how he feels right now.]
Then you see it on the screen.
Assistant Director: [The director has died after vomiting blood.]
Urging for more updates: [Hahahaha.]
Fan: [Hahahaha.]
Then, for some reason, everyone started posting from the sidelines, and it was all "hahahahaha".
This was also shared on Weibo.
The hashtag #TheDayAfterTheDirectorWasAngry# quickly garnered over 100,000 comments.
More and more people are watching the live stream because of this joke about "infuriating the director".
Then suddenly the ratings also skyrocketed, and everyone wanted to see what kind of person could drive the show's director crazy.
This is truly the biggest gain for Cherry Video.
The director hadn't expected so many people to want to see her fail. If the show's ratings continue to rise, he might win the Best Director award for a variety show this year.
However, after two consecutive episodes where they broke the code so easily, it must have been quite a blow to the director.
Director: "No, we can't let them pass so easily tomorrow."
Programs that could have been recorded into the evening or even into the middle of the night are now ending just after noon.
It feels like a lot of the fun has been lost.
Taking advantage of the ample free time in the afternoon, the director went to see the assistant director and several planners to revise the plan.
Tomorrow we must show these people how powerful the production team is, and let them know that experience counts.
Unbeknownst to the others, the production team had once again changed the original program plan in an attempt to make things difficult for them.
Suya and her group passed the test smoothly, and the two people locked up, Munai and Ziling, were released by their program staff.
The production team had originally planned a late-night snack, but they didn't expect them to come out so quickly, so they didn't prepare anything for them. When everyone returned to the hotel, everyone except Su Ya and William Su, who were already full, was starving.
Suya and William Su returned to their respective hotel rooms.
Unexpectedly, when Su Ya entered the room, she found an uninvited guest sitting on the sofa, looking more comfortable than if he were in his own home.
"Why are you here?" Su Ya asked.
