Chapter 359 Even her own mother wouldn't recognize her.



Actually, there were far fewer plastic figures present than when they entered. Half of them were affected by vomit, and the other half by the blood and flesh from Anzi's head. They were all fighting in the garbage bags!

The remaining plastic figures sat scattered in the theater seats, motionless, like props, quietly watching the five protectors in the center of the stage.

Apula and Longduo's eyes flickered as they looked at the popcorn and drinks the Du brothers were holding, then glanced at the little girl calmly stuffing popcorn into her mouth, their gazes deep and unfathomable.

Cheng Shuang made no attempt to hide anything, letting out a spoiled snort and a breathy sound, "I like them, but I don't like you!"

Children are usually unreasonable when they are being willful, so Apra and Longduo suppressed their doubts and focused intently on the tall screen to see what kind of problem it would cause.

Cheng Shuang took out the two-star 'Wanwuda Pictures Gift Card' from her spatial storage, ready at any moment, just in case this card could save her life at a critical moment.

There was nothing unusual on the screen, except that four people walked up from both sides.

All four are made of plastic figures. Judging from their attire, there are two men and two women. Their formal wear has name tags attached to it. Of course, the name tags only indicate their occupation: one host, one male lead, and two female leads.

The host and the male lead were easy to distinguish, but the two female leads, dressed in flowing long dresses, were practically indistinguishable, even their gowns were the same style, the only difference being the color.

One in a red dress, the other in a white dress, stood on either side of the male lead.

It's truly a case of needing both the red rose and the white moonlight.

Cheng Shuang heard Uncle Du, who was standing next to her, say in a low, rough voice, "Some are dying of thirst while others are drowning in water. Why am I the only single one?"

Du Lushu rolled her eyes at her brother, "Would you dare take one if I offered it to you?"

"Hmph!" Du Lanshan scoffed. "You really wouldn't dare!"

The little girl pursed her lips, trying not to laugh out loud.

Their interruption caused even the usually stern-faced Longduo and Apra to relax. Apra asked in a low voice, "What are they going to do?" He just stood quietly on the stage without saying a word.

“Ask a question!” Du Lanshan replied.

Sure enough, as soon as the background music ended, the host walked to the center of the stage and first asked the audience to welcome the main cast and crew to the event, and then gave a speech about the scene that was closely related to the movie.

Then came the main Q&A session.

"The lucky audience members have arrived at the front of the stage. Now, each audience member can ask a question about the movie's plot, and five lucky audience members on stage will be chosen to answer. If a lucky audience member can't answer, they can ask one of the lead actors for help!"

A cheer erupted from the audience; the opportunity to interact with the actors seemed to have ignited everyone's passion.

The host also played a game of musical chairs, tossing a ball to the audience. The ball was stopped according to the rhythm of the music, and the audience member to the left of the person holding the ball could then ask a question.

The music was not entertaining at all; it was much the same as the sounds of a vagrant, with a strong and jarring rhythm—pure noise.

But the plastic figures below the stage were having a great time, and the maintainers could only barely tolerate it.

The music stopped, and for the first question, the audience member pointed to Du Lanshan to answer.

Longduo and Apradi breathed a sigh of relief.

What are the male and female leads doing at the ten-minute mark of the movie?

Holy crap! Are the questions really that tricky?

Du Lanshan's eyes widened. He wanted to rub his ears to see if he had misheard. Unfortunately, from Du Lushu and Cheng Shuang's expressions, he knew that there was nothing wrong with his ears.

He rolled up his sleeves, turned to the host, and asked in a gruff voice, "What happens if I answer incorrectly or abstain?"

As for asking the lead actor for help, he wouldn't easily fall into such an obvious trap.

The host's face emitted a laugh, a sharp, grating sound that sent chills down one's spine. "Then please watch the movie several times yourself, until you remember every single plot point clearly."

A personal recollection? How would one recollect it? Would it have to be staged?

This was a common question among the maintenance workers present.

Du Lanshan wanted to ask more questions, but the host interrupted him expressionlessly, "Please answer, you have one minute to choose whether to ask for help or to give the answer directly."

Cheng Shuang closed her eyes. The first ten minutes of the show coincided with the time when she had asked Luo An to deliver popcorn and drinks to Uncle Du's family...

In the quiet air, the host's cheerful countdown could be heard. With just ten seconds left, the audience began counting together, "Ten, nine..."

Du Lushu's face was ashen, while Du Lanshan was covered in cold sweat. The two brothers exchanged a glance, their expressions dark, clearly indicating their intention to launch a direct attack.

The girl's heart skipped a beat. Now that the skill was activated, what would happen next? She gritted her teeth, tugged at Du Lanshan's sleeve, and muttered three words, "Single dog!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Du Lanshan, who was hearing something very quietly, blurted out, "Want to be in a relationship!"

Cheng Shuang clapped silently. Uncle Du's reaction time was really great!

Du Lushu's face was full of complicated emotions. No, his brother spoke his mind—even single people want to be in a relationship!

"It's about dating."

Before the host could press further, Du Lanshan quickly repeated the entire statement, "The male and female leads are in a romantic relationship!"

"You didn't say which female lead it was!" the host said, clearly dissatisfied.

Du Lanshan chuckled, "The young men down there didn't ask that many questions!"

The host ignored him and only gave a brief warning, "No whispering or exchanging answers."

Its face was lowered, and it was looking directly at Cheng Shuang, looking as serious as an examiner.

Du Lanshan's expression hardened, and he instinctively took half a step forward to shield the little girl. Du Lushui, seeing her brother move, had a flicker in her eyes and restrained herself from doing so.

"Continue." The host didn't even look at Du Lanshan, turned around and waved his hand, and the music started again.

The rhythm of the drumming and passing the ball suddenly stopped, and a plastic figure stood up from below the stage. "My question is, please write down the name of the female lead and stick it on the back of their clothes."

Several maintainers subconsciously tilted their heads and looked at the two plastic female protagonists who had no facial features. Even their own mothers wouldn't recognize them!

Host: "Who is the lucky audience member who will answer the question?"

"That little kid."

Cheng Shuang was not surprised at all; homeless people have always been petty, vengeful, and terrifying creatures.

She took the paper and pen given to her by the host and went to the two female plastic figures. She immediately noticed the Tini bracelet on the wrist of the woman in the white dress, but when she turned her head, she saw that the woman in the red dress also had an identical one on her wrist.

She remembered that when the two were college best friends in the movie, they loved matching items. Sometimes, when the mistress couldn't afford to buy them, the rich and beautiful female lead would give them to her.

That's why in the photo, the younger administrative staff can hold a tini in one hand and a Chanel bag in the other.

The little girl pouted, bent down, and carefully examined the two bracelets.

Fortunately, the female lead didn't make things difficult for her; she let her arms hang down and allowed her to look to her heart's content.

The engravings on the two bracelets are very similar, likely a combination of the initials of two people's names and their respective (or each other's) birth dates, only the order of the names is different.

That makes it very difficult to recognize!
