Chapter 170 Searching the Suitcase

Because they came back early, Xia Jinning rested quickly and sat leisurely on the sidelines watching everyone.

He found that the later the athletes came back, the more ferocious they were.

What made Xia Jinning most happy was that the slightly plump girl actually came back successfully and fell directly on the finish line.

Everyone consumed a lot in the morning, but almost no one touched the snacks on the dining table next to them.

Director Xu Xing turned on the microphone again and said, "Athletes who retired and did not run back within the specified time can leave."

But most of them didn't know each other now, and there was no sadness. Those who left also felt like they had escaped death.

So the whole process was relatively quick. After just a few minutes, another 26 people left.

After the venue was cleaned up, Director Xu Xing asked everyone to bring their suitcases over and open them. Staff would come to check, and items that did not meet the camp entry requirements would be taken away.

The contestants were instantly sad. They thought there was no such step because their suitcases were not checked just now.

Unexpectedly... oh.

But this was also written in the contract, and no one had any objections.

Some contestants, thinking that they had some things hidden deep inside, might be able to get away with it, also had a glimmer of fantasy.

More than a dozen staff members came down to check at the same time. Because Xia Jinning was sitting on the far right of the first row, she was the first to come.

Xia Jinning opened the box and laid it flat on the ground, emptied the contents of the bag and put them into the box, and handed her backpack to the staff.

The staff were stunned, so proactive!

They searched up and down three times, but... nothing was found. Only then did they understand why they took the initiative.

Zhang Miaoya was different. She brought a total of eight large boxes, each of which was a circle larger than Xia Jinning's box...

but three of them were taken away directly.

These three boxes were almost all filled with various snacks and fast foods.

Director Xu Xing's eyes twitched, "Are you still afraid that the program group will starve you? These three suitcases are enough to eat for a month."

Zhang Miaoya didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she pointed at some of the desserts and said, "Remember to share these quickly. You can't leave them out or they will go bad tomorrow. I specially hired a dessert chef from Country F to work all night to make them for me."

Director Xu Xing rolled his eyes and ignored her.

Chen Siqi's situation was the same as Xia Jinning's. Her box was extremely simple. She was a very law-abiding person and prepared her personal belongings in full accordance with the provisions of the contract. She

was surprised to see the mountain of contraband that had been collected in front of her.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the back and a dispute.

Xia Jinning turned around and saw another contestant who was eliminated early. She couldn't remember his name clearly.

"This is my personal microphone. I use it in every performance of mine. It's not an electronic product or a prohibited item. Why are you taking it away from me?"

The staff member explained kindly, "We will keep it for you. The stage has requirements. You can't use it even if you bring it in."

"Why can't I use it? Don't you want a perfect stage? I don't want to use a microphone with average sound quality!"

"Then just withdraw from the competition!" Director Xu Xing is not used to your bad temper. You've been so slow in packing the box for half an hour and you're still not done!

When the girl saw that the director was still angry, she felt wronged for a moment.

But it was impossible to withdraw from the competition. Such a luxurious program lineup was clearly going to be a big hit!

"Here, please don't let me break it. I spent more than 60 million on this microphone." The girl pouted for a long time before handing the microphone to the staff.

The staff hurriedly held the microphone tightly in his arms. Even if he sold himself, he wouldn't be worth so much money. The humble worker was crying online...

Lin Zhiwei's boxes were even more exaggerated than Zhang Miaoya's, with 16 boxes.

Five staff members checked at the same time. Lin Zhiwei's face was also very bad, and she was a little angry. She was not familiar with these procedures and did not read the contract carefully.

Now I also regret it a little. The decision to come here was too impulsive and I didn't make adequate preparations in advance.

But despite so many large boxes, not many contraband items were found.

Almost all of them were clothes, bags and shoes. Some dresses took up almost one box, and there were even three boxes, which were specifically for jewelry.

The contestants gathered around curiously, and kept shouting "wow wow wow" as if they were at a jewelry exhibition.

"Oh my god, is this the Lin family's style?"

"Wa Qu, look at that pink gem necklace, I saw it on the news, it's called "Dreamland", and it was finally sold for more than 50 million!"

"I'm so jealous, I've worked hard all my life to be able to afford one of the things in this box"

Not only the contestants were like this, but the netizens on the barrage were even more so.

"I hope you understand my feelings when facing adversity. I hope you can make more RMB! I hope you can get rich!"

"On the importance of reincarnation! Apart from other things, the 16 boxes of Lin Zhiwei are worth my lifetime salary!"

"No wonder she is so arrogant. If I had her conditions, I would have gone to heaven and stood shoulder to shoulder with the sun!"

"I like Lin Zhiwei so much!"

After all the suitcases were checked, the contraband was piled up into three "mountains".

Director Xu Xing knew this was going to happen and was not surprised.

"Next, let's go to your dormitory building together."

Zhang Miaoya picked up a box and left the remaining four boxes there.

Xia Jinning pointed, "Take another one and I'll help you get one."

Zhang Miaoya was puzzled, "Why take it? Someone will definitely deliver it soon. Are we going to run back to get it ourselves?"

"Hurry up, don't waste time." Xia Jinning pulled the heaviest one and walked forward.

Zhang Miaoya had no choice but to obey and picked another one.

Chen Siqi and Qian Zhizhi were always beside Xia Jinning, so they didn't want to leave their hands empty and simply pulled up the remaining two boxes of Zhang Miaoya.

It was the hottest time of the day outside. As soon as we left the studio, we felt a wave of heat hitting us, suffocating us as if we couldn't breathe.

We followed Director Xu Xing and walked for nearly 20 minutes before we arrived at a slightly shabby dormitory building.

All the girls were stunned. Even the university dormitories were not so shabby.

The liver-colored wooden door and the grid-shaped windows...

A sharp-eyed girl noticed...

"Why is there no air-conditioning unit? There must be no air-conditioning."

Everyone's eyes widened and they looked at Director Xu Xing.

Director Xu Xing said with a smile: "This place is very cool, not hot at night, although it may be hot during the day, but you can't come back during the day, so why do you need air conditioning?

You say, is this the truth?"

...
