"Nothing?" Brother Liu was a little skeptical.
"After meeting Teacher Yu just now, I remembered one thing. He sent me a photo of green plants..." Yi Wan said, "I hope everything is going well for him."
Brother Liu: "??? Why did you send him green plants?"
"We met and became friends because we both share a common interest in bonsai..."
Brother Liu looked at him with deep sorrow. His eyes were like a wise pastor looking at a lost lamb. He wanted to say something but hesitated, and finally said, "Forget it, go take a photo with him."
Although the invitation to "Science War" was initiated by Yu Rongshi, he believed that as long as Yi Wan's other teammates were there - especially Ding Biehan - Yi Wan would definitely not fall into the abyss of being unspokenly dominated.
Brother Liu firmly believed this, until...
"Everyone is here... Did Ding Biehan go to the bathroom again?"
Brother Liu: …started to worry.
What would he do if Ding Biehan went to the toilet again when Yi Wan was being sexually exploited
Ding Biehan, who was standing in the toilet cubicle and carefully wiping the blood off his forehead with a wet tissue, couldn't help but shiver.
…
The magazine cover shoot had just ended, and the five people had no time to rest before they were dragged to the next variety show—
The Science War.
After repeated adjustments and negotiations, "Science Wars" was finalized to include 7 haunted locations, both domestically and internationally. Due to schedule conflicts, the production team promised that except for the first show, each member of the Rainbow Group can choose whether to participate in each episode - as long as at least two members are present in each show.
The company was very optimistic about this reality show - it had a novel format, fresh content, and was in line with its core values. He signed the contract directly and sent the five people over.
Among the five members of the Rainbow Group, Chi Ji Xia originally thought that he should be the most reluctant to participate in this program - he was not afraid of ghosts, but the scene of peeling off the mask of the Painted Skin Ghost in his dream really brought him too strong a psychological shock.
This was reflected in the fact that until he boarded the plane, he was still flipping through the book sent by the program team and studying the rules of the program in detail. But he didn't expect that the person who showed the strongest resistance to this program was Ding Biehan.
Ding Biehan showed an extremely resistant attitude towards this program from the beginning - it was as if he didn't want to have anything to do with any supernatural elements in reality. After failing to convince the others, he even called Yi Wan away in front of them with a cold face. The two went to the corridor, and Brother Liu quickly asked Chi Jixia to go out and eavesdrop.
When Chi Jixia went out, she saw Ding Biehan pressing Yi Wan against the wall. Ding Biehan said, "Yi Wan, with your status, you should know what this means, right?"
His voice was cold and anxious: "You should speak up with me and tell Brother Liu how serious this matter is..."
Chi Jixia saw Yi Wan looked at Ding Biehan in confusion: "Well... although I don't quite understand what you are saying."
Ding Biehan: …
Yi Wan: "But the penalty for breach of contract is three million per person."
… Ding Biehan was depressed.
and.
Yi Wan thought.
This variety show planned by Yu Rongshi must have some purpose. As long as he is there, Yi Wan will not feel worried.
He didn't know why Yu Rongshi invited him to this variety show. But he vaguely felt that this was related to the conversation between the two under the starry sky that night, or maybe it was because Yu Rongshi felt that...
He is a tacitly understood and suitable helper for his purpose.
But he didn't tell Ding Biehan about all this. Yi Wan just patted his shoulder and comforted him: "As long as we complete this variety show, we can get more than 5 million..."
"What's the use of having money alone?" Ding Biehan said coldly.
Yi Wan: "We can each buy one of Bo Jiang's paintings."
Chi Jixia returned to the office before he discovered her. He recalled what he had just seen, and felt a little weird in his heart.
It seemed as if Ding Biehan understood Yi Wan better than he did.
"… What does he know about Yi Wan? I was the first one to come here, and I'm his roommate." Chi Jixia muttered.
Brother Liu saw him coming in and asked him, "What was he doing in the corridor just now?"
Chi Jixia: "Ding Biehan pressed Yi Wan against the wall and asked him why he didn't join him in opposing this variety show."
Brother Liu: …
Ding Biehan's objection still didn't work. After everyone left, Brother Liu only left Bo Jiang. Looking at the most stable and reliable captain in front of him, Brother Liu said cautiously: "For this variety show, I want to teach you something."
Bo Jiang smiled: "You."
Brother Liu: "You can hype up couples in the group, but you can never do it for real!"
… After returning to his room, Ding Biehan sneezed again. He stared at the computer desktop, intending to complete the variety show with full concentration and vigilance.
…
The flight took three hours, and it was night, so Ding Biehan didn't close his eyes the entire time. The other teammates who knew nothing about the supernatural truth of the world, on the other hand, put on their eye masks one after another and slept soundly.
Ding Biehan felt that he was the only sober person and martyr in the story.
When the five people arrived at the airport this time, they were greeted by a more grand reception team. The overwhelming cheers and excitement made it almost impossible to look away.
"Bo Jiang!! Bo Jiang!!"
"Ah, ah, Linlin, look at me!"
"Ding-Bie-Han-"
"Xia-Xia!!"
Yi Wan walked behind the crowd wearing a mask, calm and composed, like a passerby who accidentally passed by the male lead's set. Until he saw a little purple that belonged to him among the large expanses of red, yellow, blue, and green.
There were only a few purple light signs, behind the other bright colors. But the eyes of the girl holding it were as passionate and determined as those of the fans of other popular members.
Yi Wan took off his mask and smiled at her. He waved his hand, the red rope on his wrist making his white wrist look like frost and snow, and walked into the nanny car with the other people.
Although love and passion are always short-lived, at least at this moment, he saw her eyes lit up by him.
…
"There are too many people coming to pick me up at the airport. Just now, a little girl threw a gift into my arms. Is it an embroidered handkerchief?" Chi Jixia stared at the handkerchief. "The stitches are a little crooked. She must have sewed it herself..."
"The embroiderer puts her heart into every stitch. You should cherish this kindness. It is much more precious than things woven by machines today." Bo Jiang said lightly as she sat next to her.
"I'm not precious... This rabbit is pretty cute."
"Okay, okay, put all the gifts you received here." Brother Liu said while holding a bag. "It is the company's rule that gifts cannot be given or received between fans in private. This is not only to constrain artists, but also to protect them. If you accept something now, you might get into trouble in the future..."
Chi Jixia just threw the gifts she received into it.
After leaving the airport, the group got on a van. The van drove straight into the forest, climbing up the winding mountain road. Chi Jixia looked at the dense trees on both sides and said, "Where was the first haunted house I visited?"
This booklet only lists the locations of the seven haunted houses, but does not specify the specific content and layout. This is to create surprises (scares) for the five of them, and also for better program effects. Only workers like Brother Liu have complete information.
"Isn't this considered a spoiler? Brother Liu, please tell me about this." Chi Jixia winked, "I promise, as soon as we get to the haunted house, I'll be prepared to look scared."
"... Let me take a look." Brother Liu had no choice but to open WeChat. The others also sat in their seats and stretched their ears to listen.
Only An Yelin was looking out the window. His eyes were dull and his slender figure showed a hint of worry.
"The first haunted house... huh? Why is it that the old information says it's a beach house?!"
"Beachfront villa? On the mountain?" Chi Jixia asked puzzledly.
Among all the people, only Ding Biehan's eyes suddenly became fierce at that moment. He sat up straight and pursed his lips.
—The unexpected happened, he thought.
What is the scientific war, seven side stories... Isn't this similar to the infinite flow game? And the black invitation... at the agency was eager for money and sent him into this "survival" variety show. And now, the first element of the infinite flow element, "accident", has finally happened.
And the other five people also became the prey in this game.
Ding Biehan was nervous but couldn't help but imagine the future of the five of them. For example, when they were on the show, the five of them went to the toilet together...
Bo Jiang was also very curious, but Yi Wan was the only one who was still looking down at his phone.
Brother Liu over there has already made the call.
"I want to ask about the first location... Huh? It's changed... What? Someone threw out 50 million to invest in this variety show. The only requirement is not to advertise, but to change the location of the first haunted house story to his own ancestral home..." Brother Liu was stunned, "What kind of fearless internationalist spirit is this? That person is..."
"Oh... your last name is Fu, right? Okay."
Brother Liu hung up the phone.
He said to everyone with a very strange expression: "A very rich person intervened in this variety show and replaced the first haunted house with his home... But don't worry, it shouldn't affect the process."
"Oh, the first location has been changed? It doesn't matter. Fu's house, Gu's house, and Shen's house are all the same." Chi Jixia was relieved.
"His surname is Fu... Why does he want to change his residence for no apparent reason?" Ding Biehan was still nervous.
He still suspected that this was a conspiracy. If there was no supernatural element, what could make someone suddenly spend 50 million to join this variety show game? !
Mr. Fu must be an unfathomable person. Maybe it has something to do with his game. Ding Biehan still clenched his fists. He thought coldly and decided to find out the truth one day.
Who knows, he could find a way to escape from the infinite flow game and get rid of the rumors about his kidney deficiency.
Behind him, An Yelin paused when he heard the last name, and had a vague sense of foreboding. Yi Wan, who was sitting at the back, raised his eyes from his phone, glanced at Ding Biehan, then at An Yelin—
Then he put the phone next to his hand.
The car finally stopped in front of a mansion. This mansion seemed to be built during the Republic of China period, and there was a large garden outside. Outside the garden was a high iron fence and gate.
The iron gate was opened. As he passed through the flowers in the garden, Yi Wan vaguely saw a dark shadow passing by.
