Chapter 365 Real and Fake Contact Points (1/2)



The second round of the game is called "True or False Contact Points".

The guests will be transported by the production team to Pingxi Town, Ruguan Ancient Town, where they will participate in the second round of games.

Within this small town, there are over a dozen hidden contact points. Guests can use clues to locate these points and complete corresponding tasks. The guest who completes the most tasks will obtain clues related to their undercover mission. Of course, some are genuine, and some are deceitful.

Pingxi Town is far from where the first round of games took place, so the eight guests need to split into two cars to get there.

Ye Chu, Shi Shan, He Xi, and Captain Shen rode in one car, while Zheng Bohan, Lu Huaizhang, Di Ting, and Cheng Daiqing rode in another car.

On Ye Chu's side, Shi Shan was driving, Ye Chu was in the passenger seat, and Captain Chen and He Xi were in the back.

The show's producers are really making a big show of creating on-screen couples. Sun Xiaoxiao wants to criticize RuTV again.

During the journey, people inevitably chatted to pass the time. After a few words, He Xi casually asked, "Sister Ye, what clues did you get?"

Ye Chu glanced in the rearview mirror and laughed, "It's nothing. A tree, a pen."

“A tree?” Captain Shen interjected, “Isn’t that…”

The comments section was buzzing with activity, answering his question in a lively chatter:

There are leaves on the tree.

[Ye Chu?]

[It can't be that obvious, can it?]

[It might be a smokescreen; the real clue could be that pen.]

[The pen could only be related to Zheng Bohan, right? Aren't screenwriters supposed to make a living with their writing skills?]

[The emperor played by Ye Chu even wrote words with a pen. I remember there was a long online debate about what she actually wrote.]

[The mythical beast Di Ting once killed someone by stabbing them with a pen...]

He Xi is the deputy leader of the monitoring team, responsible for taking notes, and he always carries a pen with him.

Isn't our Director Lu's favorite pen an imported American Parker gold pen?

The scope of "pen" is too broad.

[Did Ye Chu just give away the clues like that?]

[She dares to give, but who dares to believe her? Li Yiming's credibility is negative in the ninth round (humorous)]

As if echoing the comments, Ye Chu tilted her head back and said, "There are leaves on the tree. Captain Chen wants to vote for me?"

"We shouldn't jump to conclusions so quickly," Shi Shan said calmly. "Professor Ou Yang's name even has the character 'Yang' in it, meaning poplar."

Sun Xiaoxiao took a moment to realize that Ou Yang was the actor who played Cheng Daiqing.

“Teacher Ou Yang has thick eyebrows, big eyes, and an upright demeanor,” Ye Chu teased. “He doesn’t look like an undercover agent at all.”

"So..." He Xi's eyes darted around, then she suddenly leaned forward, made a fist, and placed it near Ye Chu's chin. "Confess and you'll be treated leniently, resist and you'll be punished severely! Is Teacher Ye Chu an undercover agent or not?"

Ye Chu paused, then looked at He Xi with amusement: "I am an undercover agent."

Shi Shan nodded: "I was also an infiltrator."

"Our whole car is full of infiltrators," Captain Chen chuckled. "But the Chief doesn't seem like a good guy!"

The bureau chief, who had been being nagged by Captain Shen, sneezed.

"Old Xue," Zheng Bohan turned to look at him, "are you planning to hog all the food?"

"What do you mean by 'eating alone'? Me, eating alone?" Lu Huaizhang pinched the bridge of his nose. "There's not much to say about those two clues, just a seal and a river. The river is drawn crookedly and rather abstractly. That's all."

Zheng Bohan seemed to understand something: "A seal? Lu Huaizhang?"

"How can this be related?" Lu Huaizhang chuckled. "Then I could say that the riverbed means 'vast'!"

Zheng Bohan said quietly, "I wrote the script. When I named you, I used the story of 'holding the seal in one's arms'."

[Hahahaha, holding an official seal in his arms, that's an official seal, isn't that just being a power-hungry person!]

[Zheng Bohan: No one understands Tianban better than me!]

[The officer is deliberately lying; weren't the clues a pen and a tree?]

Looks like she wants to eat it all by herself.

[Good news: The Director's reputation in the Ninth Bureau is no better than Li Yiming's, so people may not be fooled.]

Could the Director be an undercover agent?

[That's impossible. Ye Chu seems more suspicious.]

[NONONO, upon rational analysis, Ye Chu doesn't seem like an undercover agent at all.]

【Why? 】

Ye Chu directly revealed the real clue; anyone who saw that tree would suspect her, right? If she were truly an undercover agent, wouldn't she be walking right into a trap?

[It could also be a deliberate feint, a military tactic that blends deception and reality.]

Why would the Director forge a seal as a clue, deliberately arousing suspicion?

The car quickly arrived at its destination amidst jump cuts. The production team divided the guests into four groups of two. To Sun Xiaoxiao's relief, Shi Shan wasn't grouped with Ye Chu this time, but instead had to accompany Zheng Bohan. Ye Chu's teammate became Di Ting, Captain Chen was paired with He Xi, and Lu Huaizhang and Cheng Daiqing formed a team.

The barrage of comments sparked a small celebration:

【Yay! Drip Couple!】

[Drip drip drip drip drip drip drip drip~]

[Captain Shen and Deputy Team Leader He are a couple now!]

[It's hilarious that the bureau chief and deputy bureau chief are working together]
