480: Chapter 218 Gag Fee_1 480: Chapter 218 Gag Fee_1 Nobody knew what the front desk girl was thinking.
Otherwise, they definitely would’ve chid in with, “This one’s really sothing!”
“Our boss said the money can be refunded, but only for your group!”
After hanging up the phone, the front desk girl relayed her boss’s exact words to Lin Baici and the others.
“But we bought our tickets as a group discount!”
Pei Fei argued with reason.
“You already bought half-price tickets.
We’re actually making a loss on this, all to boost our popularity!”
The front desk girl forced a smile.
Every year, when the freshn at Haijing start school, the boss would pull off a promotional stunt, considering escape rooms are only novel for one or two tries.
After that, they tend to get boring.
Designing escape rooms is just too much hassle.
It’s not like making a movie where you can create challenging levels with cara tricks.
Setting up the props in reality is troubleso.
The commotion here caught the attention of quite a few people, especially so newcors who looked at Lin Baici and his group curiously.
The front desk girl lowered her voice to Lin Baici, almost pleading: “Given that you cleared nine rooms so quickly, you must be really intelligent.
You’re bound to be rich in the future, so please don’t make it hard for .
I’m begging you!”
The front desk girl clasped her hands and bowed to Lin Baici, her eyes filled with both pleading and a bit of curiosity and amazent.
Because Lin Baici did not only break the record but also shaved a whole hour off it.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t refund the money.
Just hurry up and put our nas on that board!”
Qian Jiahui urged, as he was more interested in fa than the money.
“Give each of us a bucket of popcorn and a bottle of cola, and then you don’t need to refund the money!”
Lin Baici couldn’t be bothered to argue over such trivialities.
A billionaire should have the heart of a billionaire.
“Class monitor!”
Pei Fei was not quite happy about it.
As for the others, Bai Jiao was still analyzing Lin Baici’s entire escape process, Ji Xinyan was indifferent, Hu Wenwu thought he had no right to speak, and just listened to Lin Baici.
“Let’s settle it then.”
Lin Baici signaled the front desk girl to move faster.
“Right away!”
The front desk girl hurried back to the counter, took a scoop, and filled up the popcorn: “Don’t worry, I’ll fill it up for you!”
Liu Zilu, Xu Daguan, and Zhang Zhixu’s groups hadn’t co out yet, and Lin Baici and his group couldn’t leave either, so they sat on the sofas in the hall and chatted.
Half an hour passed, and Qian Jiahui grew sowhat restless.
He glanced toward the escape room exit: “They’re still not out?”
“They haven’t even exceeded the previous ‘record’ ti yet.
By the looks of it, they need at least another hour!”
Ji Xinyan was also frustrated, feeling genuinely bored just sitting there.
It was such a rare opportunity to play with Lin Baici; they should create more mories, right?
“We can only bla Old White for being too amazing!”
Fang Mingyuan remarked.
They had all been ‘in the midst of it’ just now, not realizing how terrifying Lin Baici’s performance was.
After all, according to his explanations, the escape rooms really weren’t difficult, but now, seeing the performance of others, they fully grasped Lin Baici’s excellence.
During the ti they sat there, they saw many passing players discussing the escape room challenges.
Most of these players, let alone breaking the record, hadn’t even finished all nine challenges because they’d spent too long inside and were deed ‘dead’ by the rules.
The boss opened this shop to make money, which ant ensuring visitor traffic, so it wasn’t possible to let players stay in the rooms indefinitely.
Exceeding the set ti ant death and ga over.
Xu Daguan’s group ca out sooner than Ji Xinyan had anticipated.
“These escape rooms have so interesting designs.
We should co play again next ti!”
Xu Daguan and Liu Zilu walked shoulder to shoulder.
His EQ wasn’t low, and he could sense Zhou Zhou might have so feelings for him, but she was just too ordinary-looking.
Although Liu Zilu was not very pretty either, at least she was fashionable.
Liu Yu was originally frustrated at not having cleared all the rooms and thus unable to show off his intelligence in front of Ji Xinyan and Bai Jiao.
But then he spotted Lin Baici and his group sitting in the hall, which instantly cheered him up.
“Haha, Lin Baici’s group has already co out!”
Liu Yu was overjoyed.
Everyone looked over to see that Lin Baici’s group had already consud a decent amount of their popcorn and cola.
It seed like they had been waiting for at least twenty minutes or more.
“Hmph, a bunch of losers!”
Liu Yu was smug.
Xu Daguan’s group approached: “Brother Qian, have you guys been out for a while?”
“Hmm!”
Qian Jiahui took a sip of his cola.
“You guys were really fast, huh?” Liu Yu interjected.
“Did you clear three rooms?
Don’t tell you didn’t even make it through three!”
Liu Yu and his group had been stuck on the fifth room, so he assud that since Lin Baici’s group had co out so early, they must have failed at the third room.
“I gotta say, the later rooms were quite fun.
It’s a pity you didn’t get to see them!”
Liu Yu sighed, feigning regret for Lin Baici’s group, while inwardly he was ecstatic.
Bai Jiao, Ji Xinyan, following Lin Baici,
Feeling like fools now?
Isn’t it frustrating not being able to fully enjoy the ga and just sitting here in the breeze?
“Liu Yu, what’s with the way you’re speaking?”
Pei Fei frowned, finding his words too disrespectful.
“Haha, the later rooms were indeed quite fun!”
Qian Jiahui laughed heartily, giving Lin Baici a firm pat on the shoulder: “Isn’t that right, Old White?”
Having a strong family background, Qian Jiahui was used to solving problems with money from a young age, but this didn’t an he was stupid or didn’t understand human interactions.
