Chapter 776 The nightmare becomes reality
Edward finally accepted Ruan Qi's proposal.
He asked the crowd to disperse, and then he and Xixi moved the gift box to the open space.
"Mr. Bodyguard, are you sure you can do this? I don't want you to be in any danger." Edward confirmed again and again.
Xi Xi made an OK gesture with confidence.
Ruan Qi: "Director Edward, Uncle Xixi is very capable, you don't have to worry at all. And I will be by his side."
Seeing this, Edward nodded and turned aside.
Xixi took the scissors handed to him by He Ma.
"Xiao Qi, step back."
Ruan Qi obediently retreated behind He Ma.
Xixi took a pair of scissors, grabbed the ribbons on the gift box and cut them one by one, and then began to cut the seal on the gift box.
Ruan Qi's heart slowly began to lift.
She stared at Xixi's movements intently.
As the seal was cut, the outer shell of the black and gold gift box fell apart, revealing the contents inside.
It's a huge candy.
The candy's wrapper was brightly colored, with a red-nosed clown's head painted on it. Ruan Qi looked at the clown's smiling face, and a sense of crisis suddenly surged in her heart.
Just then—
Snap!
A sound like a switch flipping came from inside the candy wrapper.
Then, there was a 'sizzle' sound, as if something was ignited.
Ruan Qi's scalp instantly became numb.
"Uncle Heehee, get out of the way!"
Before the shouting ended, the huge candy wrapper seemed to be inflated, bulging instantly, and then -
BANG!!!
A huge explosion resounded throughout the set.
"What happened?"
"What's going on? Is there a terrorist attack?!"
"Gift box! It was that gift box that exploded!"
There was a sudden chaos on the set.
The wrapper of the huge candy was blown to pieces, and Ruan Qi quickly retreated to a distance under the protection of He Ma.
"Where's Uncle Heehee? How's Uncle Heehee?"
Xixi, who was not far away, heard Ruan Qi's anxious question and quickly responded to her: "Xiao Qi, I'm fine!"
As soon as Ruan Qi asked him to get out of the way, Xixi immediately dropped the scissors and hid far away.
Therefore, the explosion just now did not hurt him.
"Oh my God! Look!" At this moment, a scream rang out, "It's on fire!"
Everyone looked towards the gift box immediately.
The wrapper of the giant candy had been blown to pieces, and everyone finally saw the true appearance of the candy—
It turned out to be an ignition device!
The ignition device was made of silver metal, with several wires densely connected to it. These wires were now tangled together, tightly entangling a clown doll that was more than half a person's height.
It was the clown doll that was on fire at this time.
As the fire came into contact with the air, it grew larger and larger. The fire snakes fiercely wrapped around the clown doll, burning all its beautiful clothes.
Dark grey smoke rose with the flames, and everyone smelled the stench of gasoline.
Everyone was stunned by this sudden situation.
Director Edward was the first to react: "Where's the fire extinguisher? Hurry up and get the fire extinguisher! Put out the fire!"
The staff on the set woke up with a start and scrambled to find a fire extinguisher.
At this moment, the burning clown doll seemed to have touched something, and suddenly let out a shrill child's cry.
"It hurts! It hurts so much! Help me! Help me! Why don't you save me!"
...Why didn’t you save me?
…It hurts so much!
...You burned us to death! Why aren't you dead yet?
The memory sealed deep in the subconscious suddenly cracked, and the shrill cries in the horrific nightmare finally turned from a dream into reality.
Ruan Qi's head suddenly felt a sharp pain as if it were being pricked by needles, and her face, which was delicately decorated with makeup, turned pale in an instant.
