"How’s the effect?"
Pausing for a mont, Nora asked casually.
Upon hearing Nora’s tone, Katherine sensed that it wouldn’t be a problem, thought for a mont, and replied, "Gained followers and earned good reviews."
"Oh."
Nora picked up another apple slice and saw Adrian bring over two glasses of freshly squeezed waterlon juice, slightly puzzled.
-Those she knew in the military, didn’t know how crude their lives were, they simply slamd down a fist to crack open a waterlon. Like Humphrey Jennings. He really lived in a way that defied her usual delicate expectations.
But this astonishnt quickly faded.
"I heard Master Pedro said you were a bit concerned she’s Mrs. Loughton’s favorite pupil?" Katherine asked.
"Hmm."
Sipping on the chilled waterlon juice, Nora felt quite good.
"Actually..."
"Hmm?"
"You don’t have to worry too much; Mrs. Loughton has many favorite students." Katherine supporting her chin with one hand explained, "She likes being a teacher and has a natural fondness for students. Upon seeing potential, she can’t help but treat them like treasures. She doesn’t seek anything from them, so if she has resources or opportunities, she shares them with students, instinctively wanting the best for them. But in her mind, Rosa Sullivan isn’t much different from her other students."
"Really?"
Nora raised an eyebrow.
"I’m just idle, ahem..." Katherine cleared her throat, chuckled at her, smiling softly and warmly, "Being idle, I could hang out with Mrs. Loughton more, lowering Rosa Sullivan’s favorability a bit."
Seeing Katherine’s gentle and subtle smile, Nora suddenly felt a chill seep down her neck from behind; the ice cubes felt a bit too cold on her teeth.
If soone like Benjamin or Miguel Smith had said this, Nora would find it natural. But hearing it from the honest Katherine Collins gave her a strange sense of discord.
Nora slowly finished her whole glass of waterlon juice, the unlted ice cubes reaching her mouth, which she chewed on and ate.
She said, "Thanks for the effort."
They exchanged a glance.
Having listened to their entire conversation, Adrian remained indifferent, asking them if they wanted to have grilled steaks tomorrow night, as Sir Ford had sent over so top-grade ingredients.

Back when filming "Escape Room," Nora was well aware—that in the Zombie Academy episode, she and Rosa Sullivan would definitely beco the central figures, with the focus of discussion naturally shifting towards them.
On the day Marcus Shaw and Oliver Scott finished their finals, the latest episode of "Escape Room" aired, thed: Zombie Academy.
Oliver was already in the living room with a computer waiting, and because Nora was in the recording, Marcus, after being called twice by Oliver, moved to sit beside him.
"Sis, are you watching?"
Oliver called to Nora.
Having spent the whole day with the production crew, Nora’s head was spinning, and she was sitting in a rocking chair flipping through the script. Hearing Oliver’s voice, she muttered a sound and then replied, "Cast it to the TV."
Let’s listen a bit.
"Oh."
Oliver quickly opened the Cool Ridge app on his phone, connecting to the TV for casting.
The timing was perfect as the video had just been updated.
Oliver said, "Sis, did you know, because of this show ’Escape Room,’ the escape room business has beco popular nationwide, and online people say the show has driven the industry’s growth."
"Really?"
Nora was not much interested.
The escape room ga, she had designed one before upon a friend’s invitation. Without any experience, she did extensive research before the design, visiting more than ten popular escape rooms across cities. Later, the room she designed... Anyway, she heard it beca quite popular recently, with ratings approaching five stars on a certain review app.
Due to this prior experience, Nora was able to easily design the escape rooms for the "Escape Room" program while enjoying herself.
Oliver continued, "But the first two escape rooms weren’t impressive and ratings fell quickly. It’s your and Rosa Sullivan’s participation that restored audience enthusiasm."
"Fell to what score?"
"8.7."
"..."
Nora hissed.
Netizen reviews can be really harsh, and the ratings even more realistic.
As they spoke, the intro finished playing, and the main segnt began.
The computer’s sound was off, but the comnts were still playing, allowing Oliver and Marcus to see the netizens’ real-ti reactions.
This episode had two major highlights—
1. Rosa Sullivan’s return to "Escape Room";
2. Nora’s participation in "Escape Room."
Rosa Sullivan, known as a walking cheat code, was a major attraction of "Escape Room." That’s why the crew hurriedly contracted Rosa for the second season of the room.
Nora, as a hot-topic queen, rarely appeared in public, resulting in an unintended "hype marketing" that left the audience eagerly awaiting Nora’s appearance. Moreover, Nora’s participation in "City Secret" previously brought many surprises to viewers, and even after "City Secret" concluded its season, people still revisited her episode for laughs. Now participating again in a variety show raises high expectations from the audience.
At the start of the program, there were several scenes of a school in darkness, roughly introducing the background of the script and the guests’ first task.
Background: This is an abandoned school, filled with zombies and danger. To successfully leave, they must find the source of Zombie Academy.
Guest task: Obtain key clues to leave the locked escape room.
Barrage——
[Is the program team crazy? Even the zombies are so realistically drawn! The props team and stylists of this program are really aweso.]
[Ahhhhh, looking forward to Rosa Sullivan returning to "Escape Room." Will the young lady still be an unstoppable force this ti?]
[??? Last ti participating in "City Secret," Nora Scott was full of martial world charisma, so strong and commanding. This ti, changing into a school uniform to be a campus goddess, surprisingly without any sense of discord!! Ever-changing goddess, I bow to this face. She truly deserves to be an actor.]
[LOL, Nora Scott as a campus goddess also has such a strong aura, such an imposing look. If she takes a wooden stick to fight, probably there’d be no sense of discord.]
[Congratulations to Clent Winter baby for sharing the screen again with idol Nora Scott, screenshot screenshot.]
[I’m a passerby who dislikes Nora Scott. However, Nora Scott’s appearance... it truly overshadows the other two.]
[Can we just watch the program properly without all these annoying comnts about this and that?]
...
Six guests are locked in six classrooms, Nora Scott and Rosa Sullivan are on the fifth floor, the other four are on the sixth floor.
Played one after another, not long before it reached Nora Scott’s classroom.
The program broadcast announced they could remove their blindfolds and then leave the classroom within an hour.
Outside, thunder and lightning, the classroom was dimly lit. Nora Scott stood quietly, not even blinking, surveying the classroom, then directly headed to the front door.
Barrage——
[Sister, don’t go, there are zombies outside ahhh.]
[Get ready to scream.]
[Luckily, I paused early, otherwise Heavenly Immortal would have been scared.]
And then——
The door was opened, and under the viewers’ attentive gaze, they saw Nora Scott calmly take a step back and negotiate amicably with the zombie——
"Buddy, could you retract your hand a bit? It’s getting in the way of checking the lock."
The zombie didn’t listen.
Then, this fairy-like sister did sothing unexpected, grabbing the zombie’s hand, pulling the person forward, dismantled the waistband, and quickly tied the zombie’s hands with the belt.
[Big sis, stop!!!]
[Zombie: ???]
[???]
[Is the binding real?]
[I was expecting her to scream from the start, but now she’s calmly tying up the zombie?!]
[Nora!!! Both have been NPCs before, but why are you so cruel to them!]
[Hahaha LOL, why is Heavenly Immortal sticking out so much at the waist level.]
[Amazing, Godly show. I watched a horror program, but ended up laughing hysterically.]
["City Secret" audience states, we firmly believe this tactic by Heavenly Immortal sister is not a persona, she can actually do it. Hahahahahaha laughing out loud.]
...
Because of Nora Scott’s unexpected move, the barrage went crazy.
Oliver Scott watched, stunned for two seconds, then couldn’t help but chuckle, soon laughing and leaning on Marcus Shaw’s shoulder, only to be pushed away disdainfully by Marcus Shaw.
Cara switches.
Other guests are searching for clues to solve puzzles, each showing their style, especially Clent Winter, the little cutie, hiding in the office and screaming. However, compared to Nora Scott’s antics, the audience felt their performances lacked so enjoynt.
[For so reason, I particularly want to watch Nora Scott’s part. This sister has surprises in every program, the nesis of the production team.]
[Just to be clear, could the program team please release an edited version of Nora Scott’s scenes? I want to see Nora Scott’s performance throughout.]
[Rosa Sullivan is interesting as an unstoppable force, staying beside other guests who might guide her, but a bit bland alone, focused solely on solving puzzles. Young lady, this is a variety show, there should be so entertaining effect.]
...
After a round, the screen returns to Nora Scott’s classroom.
Just as Nora Scott finds the lock at the back door, she returned to the classroom to find clues, becoming more conventional. Just when the audience thought Nora Scott would find the clues to unlock the chanism to leave, this sister found the key clue, pulled out a campus card, and went directly to the back door of the classroom——
Barrage:
[I have an ominous premonition.]
[I have an ominous premonition. 1 This sister has many unknown little skills.]
[Can soone educate , doesn’t the Expert Thief have to know how to pick locks too?]
...
In the premonition of many viewers, sure enough, Nora Scott easily opened the back door within a few seconds.
Barrage:!!!! You’re still the master!
