A mute and a deaf, just right for Mu Qiu to shine. Without them needing to speak or act, she could single-handedly create the feeling of a three-person conversation.
Li Yang couldn’t help but clap for this fra-up.
Shi Yuhuai rolled his eyes so hard they nearly reached his hairline, blocking his ears with his hands, forcefully making himself "both deaf and mute."
Clearly in the "don’t even think about deducting my points" stance. He’d already lost two points in the last round; losing another would demote him to a roaming NPC.
This dangerous position made him extrely vigilant.
Mu Qiu was speaking until her mouth was dry, yet he remained silent, so she had to stop and look at the blank paper Li Yang had casually left on the small tea table at the fifth position, exclaiming.
"Li Yang, is your drawing related to the words written on it? What Wei Yi wrote is definitely different, isn’t that right, Wei Yi?"
"Huh?" Wei Yi instinctively leaned out.
Mu Qiu smiled and snapped her fingers: "First Blood."
The electronic voice sounded promptly.
"Wei Yi has violated the control lock rules for the second ti, deducting a second point!"
Beside them, Guan Yu let out a long sigh, like an elderly woman lingering in the world, unwilling to ascend to the afterlife.
A sowhat dazed Wei Yi murmured, "Sister Mu Qiu, you tricked again!"
He would never trust that woman again! He needed to block his ears with sothing!
Mu Qiu showed an apologetic smile: "Sorry, it’s the ga’s fault, bla the director for coming up with such a perverted ga."
Director: How is this my fault? Ga is perverted, didn’t ask people to be.
Wei Yi had already curled up on the daybed, swearing that no matter what exploded outside, he wouldn’t peek out again. He huddled there, rehearsing the dance moves he had to perform on the talent show next week in his mind; at least he wouldn’t be deceived by certain won.
Mu Qiu coughed twice, moving on to the seventh position.
t eyes with Guan Yu.
"Sister Guan Yu, isn’t it hard not to speak? I know you have so many wonderful brain bullet chats ready to burst forth, but sadly the director has silenced you. Oh, watching it makes my heart ache."
Brain bullet chats...this description was quite spot on.
Guan Yu indeed had nurous brain bullet chats she wanted to release.
For example, "Mu Qiu, the way you’re dragging a la and a deaf from spot to spot is just like a mother-in-law making rounds with her newly-married children."
Or, "Mu Qiu, you deranged woman, stop bullying our little Wei Yi."
Or again, "Director, hurry and let speak! I want to use the art of language to leave Mu Qiu speechless."
She believed that if her brain bullet chats could be voiced out, this segnt would be twice as exciting, okay?!
Alas, a beauty with ambitions, but a rciless director.
Thinking of this, Guan Yu looked at Mu Qiu with a ghostly gaze, resentful and angry.
Scheming to bully her teammates because she couldn’t speak!
Mu Qiu acted like she didn’t see it and continued, "What do you want to say? Oh, bla the director? This segnt isn’t broadcastable, be careful the director might set harder obstacles for you later.
Ah, though I know the fault lies with you, looking at you like this, I can’t bear to bla you."
Guan Yu: Thanks, but no thanks.
"Hmm, okay, I know it’s your fault, no need to apologize anymore."
"......" Guan Yu almost couldn’t hold back, she really wanted to say ’lunatic.’
"Really, no more apologies... Brother Cheng, what are you looking at?"
Cheng Zhirang, suddenly implicated, was stunned, looking up at her.
Mu Qiu’s smile was radiant, still facing Guan Yu while speaking to him instead: "How did you know I was calling you?"
Cheng Zhirang: "......"
He wanted to argue, but if he did, he’d lose another point.
He could only helplessly listen to the electronic bracelet on his wrist coldly announce the deduction.
"Cheng Zhirang has violated the control lock rules once, deducting one point!"
Mu Qiu happily held up a second finger: "Double Kill."
Li Yang behind Mu Qiu let out a wow: "Is this electronic bracelet too precise? Could it have detected Brother Cheng’s head movent and marked it as a violation? Can it think?"
"Have you watched too many sci-fi movies?" Mu Qiu rolled her eyes behind the red armband, "Why not say it can even talk to you?"
Just as her voice faded, her own bracelet emitted a chanical female voice: "Sorry, I haven’t watched any sci-fi movies."
Mu Qiu: "?!"
Li Yang: "!?"
The director enjoyed their clueless expressions, leaning comfortably on the chair with a small loudspeaker, openly reciting sponsorship lines.
"The electronic bracelet includes a system like phone Siri, capable of voice control and simple conversations.
Owning it is akin to having a phone, tir, body detection device, weather forecast notifier, jogging and hiking boredom buster, etc., very cost-effective."
Mu Qiu felt, if it weren’t too blatant, he might have added: "Changtong’s product offers quality assurance, better than six others combined. Buy it! Buy it!"
Mu Qiu, astonished, touched her electronic bracelet, cautiously asking: "Hello, Xiao Hua?"
Electronic voice: "I am not called Xiao Hua; you have called the wrong na."
"...Director, are you really giving this away?!"
The director gave a positive affirmation.
"Great!" She seed very excited, looking it over repeatedly. Perhaps subconsciously, she lifted her head and spoke towards Cheng Zhirang’s direction: "Brother Cheng, let’s buy another one when we go back?"
She rarely made requests, so every ti she did, Cheng Zhirang would always oblige her. This ti was no different; he instinctively said yes.
Then——
"Cheng Zhirang has violated the control lock rules second ti, deducting a second point!"
Cheng Zhirang: "......"
Looking again at Mu Qiu, her face turned away for two seconds, this ti she was laughing happily talking to her teammates.
"Three blood! We can call it a day!"
What a heartless woman.
Guan Yu shook her head, tutting twice in her heart.
Cheng Zhirang had held on for so long without losing points, yet now fell into Mu Qiu’s trap, deducting two points all at once.
The gentleman has feelings, but the lady is temporarily indifferent; one is deeply affectionate, the other only knows to retaliate and win, goodness, what a lodramatic couple.
Beauty really is distracting.
This deduction was so sudden, it made Shu Ran so angry she threw a pillow in front: "Mu Qiu, you cheated! You’re forcing him to lose points, having nothing to do with the ga at all!"
Knowing Cheng Zhirang would definitely answer her, she took the liberty of bullying him!
Mu Qiu was like a hungry ghost finally fed, sighing comfortably: "Sister Shu Ran, you have to understand, it’s the ga’s coercion. You don’t want to be last, nor do I."
"Then why specifically target Brother Cheng?!"
"How can it be called targeting him? It just happened that after moving through everyone, he was the only one left to target."
"...I don’t care! You’re cheating!"
