I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows! Chapter 579 - 578: Could You Please Chat Privately?

The person outside likely isn’t an activated monster, but more like soone the production team sent early on. They chose the exact mont the monster appeared, specifically to scare them by knocking on the door.

Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that as soon as the electronic voice ended, the person outside started banging on the door?

Mu Qiu voiced her speculation and comforted Shu Ran:

"Sister Shu Ran, you don’t need to be too afraid. Since we’re all staying in this room together, no monster will charge in, and we won’t be the first to get massacred.

In other words, we’re still safe for now, and we’ve already gotten new information—soone has acquired the archive card and must know what it looks like.

At the confession eting in the second hour, we can follow this lead and focus on the most suspicious person."

Shu Ran nodded while covering her mouth, holding back her tears, and then hid behind the curtain without moving. Trying to save face, she suggested:

"Let’s not go anywhere else for now, in case that thing outside is still there."

Let’s just hide for now! She wasn’t about to go outside! Soone first needs to get rid of that creepy thing outside!

Mu Qiu thoroughly interpreted her implications and considerately agreed, "Makes sense. What if it really is a monster out there? Let’s wait a bit before going out."

Zhao Yu and Han Xizheng worked together to push a sofa and so chairs to block the door, then double-checked that there was no balcony outside the window where soone could climb up, finally feeling at ease as they walked back.

Even though they knew the production team wasn’t likely to stage sothing identical to a real post-apocalyptic horror film, they were adept at creating a terrifying atmosphere. They couldn’t help but do a bit more to ease their internal panic.

The four of them huddled together, tucked in a corner of the room, discussing the current situation in low voices.

Shu Ran: "Wh-Why didn’t we hear anything from Guan Yu and the others? It seems like no one went to bang on their door either."

Han Xizheng: "Maybe the room they chose is a bit far, and we just couldn’t hear it."

Zhao Yu: "Since soone got the archive card, could that person be Guan Yu and the others?"

Shu Ran gritted her teeth, "Found it right in the first room they checked? Impossible!"

Even though she knew it was possible, her pride wouldn’t let her admit it.

"Right now, aside from the four of us, all the others could be suspects," Mu Qiu said seriously, sitting cross-legged on the carpet.

"And I think the activated monster is primarily for slaughter, so the person who got the card is definitely the traitor."

"The traitor should have a hint about their identity, right?" Han Xizheng asked.

Mu Qiu shook her head, "I don’t know. But they probably do. Honestly, did any of you get any hint saying you were the traitor?"

She looked at each of the three. "We’re allies in adversity now, and we must tell the truth. Anyone who lies will be last place this episode, next episode, and the one after that."

Zhao Yu looked up innocently, "That curse doesn’t affect us."

"...Then if you and Han Xizheng lie, you’ll run into a monster and beco the first casualties!"

"What a vicious curse."

Zhao Yu joked before raising a hand in an oath, "I really didn’t get any hint.

My identity info was only told by the production team, and that’s when I found out I’m a street dance teacher today. Otherwise, people might think I failed as a secret agent trying to pass the interview."

Han Xizheng also raised his hand to clear suspicion, " neither. I’m not a traitor; finding the archive card is purely to prevent the traitor from getting it and to save myself."

Mu Qiu looked at Shu Ran.

"...Do I still need to say it?! I’m already in your hands, could I still be the traitor?!"

Shu Ran was very emotional, and she had to show faith to calm her irritable nature.

Finally, Mu Qiu clarified for herself, "I also wasn’t hinted to be the traitor, I swear."

So they figured the traitor should be among the other eight people. There were too many suspects, so so had to be ruled out.

"Alright, we’ll go out later and first find Sister Guan Yu and the others. Once we join them, we’ll test them to see if the traitor is among them," she suggested.

Shu Ran nodded in agreent and then said, "Then you guys go."

"...You’re not going?"

"I think it’s safer here, and testing Guan Yu and the others doesn’t need many people."

Mu Qiu was silent for two seconds, "No way, Sister Shu Ran, don’t tell your legs are still weak."

"...Is your whole body just a mouth?! Shut up!"

After a commotion, they still couldn’t drag Shu Ran out the door. Mu Qiu had to settle for using the walkie-talkie the production team provided.

She pressed the button and said hello twice into the walkie-talkie.

"Hello? Hello Sister Guan Yu? Hello hello hello? What kind of crappy walkie-talkie is this, with such a bad signal?!"

Han Xizheng helpfully suggested, "Turn up the volu a bit."

"...Oh oh oh, sorry, Sister Shu Ran’s screams shook my mind a little unclear."

Shu Ran glared at her.

She sheepishly turned the volu knob and said hello twice into it again.

The sound ca through the other three walkie-talkies.

The static wasn’t loud, much better than walkie-talkies they had seen before.

Could it be the big sponsor’s featured product this ti is a walkie-talkie???

"Hello? Sister Guan Yu? Where are you guys? Co over and et up?"

After a while, Guan Yu’s stealthy voice ca through, very quietly.

"Were you guys causing trouble just now? I saw a shadow floating by! Now you want to walk into a trap?!"

A shadow?

Mu Qiu and the other three exchanged glances. She pressed the talk button again and asked:

"What shadow? We’ve been in our room the whole ti, and just now soone was banging on our door. I was wondering if it was you guys."

This ti, Guan Yu’s response was surprised, "Banging on the door? Could it be a monster? But we didn’t see anything."

From the echo, they should be walking in the hallway with their walkie-talkie.

Mu Qiu: "Then co over, let’s discuss it. We’re still in the sa room as before."

After so weak static, Guan Yu lazily asked, "Why don’t you guys co over?"

Judging by the sound, they were definitely in the hallway, just insisting on having the last word.

"Because Sister Shu Ran’s legs... No, no, no! Sister Shu Ran, don’t get agitated!"

This thing worked like sending voice ssages on WeChat, back and forth. Guan Yu chid in with a sarcastic reply after two seconds.

"I get it I get it! Shu Ran, is your leg too weak from fear? Hahahahahahaha Shu Ran, you’re too weak!"

As soon as her "voice ssage" ended, so static reerged, followed by another familiar voice.

"Hey, can you not chat on a public channel? If you want to chat, open up a private room number for a private chat, okay?"

It was Li Yang’s voice.
