Chapter 368 A Close Call (1/2)



The chat exploded:

[Ru Guan, how many good undercover agents do you actually have?]

[Is Zheng Bohan also an undercover agent?]

My head is spinning from playing this game for so long.

[Case solved! This episode of "Summer's Stars" actually consists of six undercover agents and two people who were infiltrated.]

Did Zheng Bohan and Shi Shan form an alliance somewhere we weren't watching? Is that why he became an undercover agent...?

[Shi Shan wasn't an accomplice either.]

My head hurts so much, can someone analyze this for me?

[The game has progressed to the point where there are already four undercover agents: Shi Shan, Zheng Bohan, Ye Chu, and Chu Zixin. Over.]

The coffin platform is still as explosive as ever.

By the way, where are Deputy Director Cheng and the Director? They just went to make a phone call and missed a lot of it.

[The chief unearthed a bunch of treasure props, while Deputy Chief Cheng is helping an old farmer water his vegetables.]

[The episode that best fits the character's persona]

The program proceeded in a tense but orderly manner, and Sun Xiaoxiao watched the screen with bated breath.

Soon, Ye Chu unearthed three elimination cards, which, together with the one that Di Ting had unearthed, made a total of four. Di Ting didn't unearth any elimination cards, but it wasn't a complete failure either, as it found two clue cards.

One clue reads, "A leader should know everything," while the other reads, "A thief can steal everything." Both are utterly useless, utterly meaningless platitudes.

He Xi and Captain Shen are enjoying a sweet romance, Director Lu is digging for treasure like crazy, Cheng Daiqing is helping an old farmer plant vegetables, and Zheng Bohan has already laid down, resting with his eyes closed under the melon trellis. As for Shi Shan, he is also walking around, seemingly searching for something.

Time flew by, and soon the final twenty minutes that would decide their fate arrived.

The polling station was very rudimentary; it was essentially just a wide country road leading out of the village. High-tech voting equipment sat by the roadside, a stark contrast to the dusty cement road.

Director Lu was the first to arrive at the polling station, bringing with him a bunch of his treasures.

This collection of treasures includes:

Three elimination cards (almost completely useless to those who have been infiltrated);

The four clue cards read: A conspirator can only have one accomplice; a sabotager can only destroy one life; a manipulator has three puppets; and an observer has seen the truth three times.

A revival card: Activated after being eliminated, allowing you to revive once.

One Insight Card: Allows you to designate a player and gain insight into all their identities. (Note: This is considered an SSR-level treasure).

A smartphone that can connect to the internet—a prize for winning a game.

A basket of fruit: a gift from a fellow villager.

A large bag of vegetables: a bribe from a fellow villager.

The comments section was filled with amazement:

What is a technically skilled worker?

This is professionalism!

The Land Administration Bureau will not leave empty-handed.

[Such a big strawberry, slurp~]

Director Lu would be successful no matter the era!

Honestly, with all this stuff, Director Lu is practically a cheat code.

[I agree, and I hope Director Lu can enlighten me.]

[Among the four undercover agents, who is the real one?]

With this equipment, it would be an injustice if Director Lu didn't win!

Upon arriving at the polling station, Lu Huaizhang did not rush to vote. Instead, he looked around for a while, and then surprisingly started playing with his smartphone!

Amidst a barrage of question marks in the live chat, He Xi and Captain Shen arrived stealthily.

Seeing Lu Huaizhang playing on his phone in front of the voting machine, the two greeted each other with a laugh and exchanged a few more pleasantries before finally approaching the voting machine.

Seeing this, Lu Huaizhang deliberately pretended to vote, and He Xi and Captain Shen quickly pressed the option!

Undercover agent – ​​Zheng Bohan!

Almost at the same time—no, a fraction of a second faster than them, Lu Huaizhang also pressed "Zheng Bohan"!

The scene quickly flashes back to the moment of the lottery.

Lu Huaizhang unfolded the note.

[...Each time you acquire an item, you can view a member's apparent identity and abilities, but you cannot see whether they are an undercover agent.]

If you obtain an SSR-level item, you can share the voting device screen of any member.

Lu Huaizhang first checked He Xi and Captain Shen's abilities. After confirming that the two would definitely make the correct choice, he shared He Xi's voting device screen and made his choice before He Xi and Captain Shen!

The comments section erupted in an uproar.

Make way, the cheater is here! The cheater is really here!

[Mom, the Bureau Chief's luck is just too good...]

What's the difference between this and a God's-eye view?

The difference is that even God doesn't know as much as he does.

No wonder the Admiral was so diligent in his treasure hunt, even treating useless discarded cards like precious gems.

I can't think of a reason why the General failed...

[Receiving Lu Huaizhang's lucky draw]

[Receiving Lu Huaizhang's lucky draw]

[Receiving Lu Huaizhang's lucky draw]

A crushing victory, nothing more.

Old ginger is spicier!

[It's like a deus ex machina!]

While the viewers in the live chat were still stunned, suddenly, a cold, broadcast voice rang out:

"The manipulator, Wang Jin, is eliminated."

"Observer, sink to the bottom, eliminated."

Wang Jin, who played He Xi, and Shen Tai, who played Captain Shen, were eliminated at the same time!

Before the viewers could react, the cold, broadcast voice rang out again:

"Didi—the one who was eliminated is Xue Haodong."

"Didi—Xue Haodong, resurrected."

Zheng Bohan wasn't an undercover agent after all?

He Xi and Captain Shen didn't have any revival cards and were completely offline. Staff members with little stars on their clothes immediately came and took them both away.

Although Lu Huaizhang was resurrected, he still had to go through the procedures and visit the resurrection area before leaving.

Just as Lu Huaizhang was taking a quick stroll through the revival zone, Shi Shan, Cheng Daiqing, Zheng Bohan, Ye Chu, and Di Ting arrived at the voting point.

None of the five people looked any better.

Shi Shan looked somewhat disheveled; his once meticulously styled hair was now quite messy, and his clothes were covered in grass and mud. His sleeves were rolled up, revealing two large welts on his arms from mosquito bites.

Zheng Bohan slept under the melon trellis for two hours. Not only was he still sleepy, but his left eyelid had also been bitten by an insect and was now swollen into a slit, looking quite strange.

Di Ting's feet were covered in mud, but thankfully his upper body was relatively clean. He could barely be considered a half-god.

Cheng Daiqing helped the old farmer plant the land for an afternoon, and his forehead was tanned black and white, like a layer of cream on coffee. Cheng Daiqing was wearing a straw hat while working, and the part covered by the straw hat was lucky enough not to get tanned.

Ye Chu was the most disheveled; her jacket was soaked through with mud, her pants were stained brown, and even her face was covered in mud. Except for her bright, dark eyes, she was practically unrecognizable.
