A reward of ten points, just for finding a kind-hearted person.
How it resembles the heart-wrenching vision of an empty-nest elderly person.
Compared to the "even though deceived, as long as Mu Qiu still has some conscience, she can rescue him once" situation, Li Yang feels that Shu Ran is even more miserable.
His emotions were well soothed, and his anger just halved.
"Sister Shu Ran is rather pitiful."
The trailing director behind the camera quietly asked him, "Yangyang, do you want to help?"
"What did you call? Giving you one chance to call again."
The staff following him burst into laughter, and the trailing director called again, "Yangyang."
"... Do not call me that! Call me by my name!"
"Okay, Yang, do you want to rescue Shu Ran?"
"..." He gave up arguing with them and straightforwardly said, "I won’t go, I’m not short of those ten points."
After saying this, he paused for a moment and asked a question, "Who dragged Sister Shu Ran to Kite Road?"
The current plunderers are him and the other two Chuchu and Zhang Li, could it be Chuchu who caught her? Is Chuchu’s combat strength that strong?
The staff did not answer him, just softly urged him, "You can go see."
"I won’t."
They urged him so enthusiastically, there must be no good intentions.
"I want to go find Mu Qiu for revenge." He directly bypassed the camera and continued running forward along the path.
The trailing director really wanted to remind him, "How do you know Mu Qiu didn’t run back," but finally held back and kept pace with him.
Now let’s talk about Mu Qiu.
After sneaking out from Li Yang and Xu Cheng’s battlefield, she and Lin Lian took a shortcut to the place where they stayed.
It was the guesthouse they rested at noon.
Only after arriving did Lin Lian realize she had the audacity to take him back to the hotel.
"Why are we back here, Sister Mu Qiu?"
Mu Qiu pushed open the door into the hall, unfolded a mattress, sat cross-legged in front of the glass window, exhaled a long breath, and said, "Obviously, to enjoy the air conditioning."
"... Now the game has just gotten fun, and we are sitting here enjoying the air conditioning?"
"Don’t you understand combining work and rest?" She fanned herself, reason after reason, "Besides, after a period of work, there must be a little summary to better carry out subsequent work, right?"
Lin Lian silently agreed, "Right, everything you said is right."
He glanced at the staff nearby who wanted to speak but stopped, turned his head and mimicked Mu Qiu, unloading the mattress, comfortably exhaling a long breath.
Carrying an inflatable mattress back and forth made his back sweaty, and now that it was opened and the air conditioning blew, he indeed felt so comfortable he forgot his last name.
He leaned his left hand backward, slightly tilted his head, hooked his right hand at the neckline and shook it twice, ventilating and cooling.
"Then shall we summarize now?"
Mu Qiu lazily turned sideways and laid down on the mattress, closed her eyes, prepared to nap.
"I think you can wait five minutes then say, what do you think..."
The electronic voice transmitted through the glass window wasn’t loud, but hearing it wasn’t a problem.
Mu Qiu hadn’t closed her eyes yet, immediately became alert, turned sideways to Lin Lian and asked, "What is this? A reward of ten points to find a kind-hearted person???"
Lin Lian was also puzzled, "Electronic voice can act as a lost notice broadcast?"
"Maybe they are out of money and want to earn extra cash," she casually fabricated a sentence, then continued,
"Sister Shu Ran is hibernating, but no one knows this situation, so there is no one to save her. Now setting a bounty... Do you think someone will go?"
"There will be, with great rewards comes courage."
She nodded in agreement, "Especially for someone who is as broke as a joke, those ten points are very important."
Take someone like Guan Yu, with only seven points overall, at most can only withstand getting caught once and hibernating once.
If Guan Yu gets these ten points, that can cover three times getting caught and hibernating once. Plus, the person who caught Shu Ran is Chuchu, who is teamed with Guan Yu, so when Guan Yu goes to the rescue, she won’t face difficulties.
So she thinks Guan Yu will definitely go.
Seems like you can’t keep enjoying the air conditioning forever, alas.
"Let’s go and witness Sister Guan Yu’s annual drama of rescuing Sister Shu Ran."
"Could we wait for a while before going?"
Lin Lian sat still, looking up at her, "It’s only ten points now, there are still two minutes, in the last minute it might increase to twenty or thirty points."
Mu Qiu was impressed by his analysis, then her expression changed, "I think you just want to enjoy the air conditioning for a bit longer here."
Lin Lian: "...You guessed right."
Finally, both of them really didn’t go out, continued to sit in the hall enjoying the air conditioning, even asked the front desk lady for a plate of fruit, eating while enjoying the air conditioning.
The electronic voice constantly bringing the latest news.
"Shu Ran rewards twenty points to find a kind-hearted person, if interested, please promptly go to Kite Road for rescue!"
"Guan Yu successfully rescued Shu Ran!"
"Shu Ran under Freezing Skill was assigned to walk with high leg lifts!"
"Shu Ran was caught, replacing Chuchu becoming a plunderer!"
Mu Qiu popped a chilled grape into her mouth, widened her eyes, exchanged glances with Lin Lian.
Then fist-thumped the turtle pig lying on the ground.
"Gosh!"
"This is a trap!"
Lin Lian ate a bite of watermelon, rapidly processing in his mind, simply analyzing:
"So it’s Chuchu who became a plunderer after having only two points left, thus forming a strategic alliance with the equally low-pointed Sister Guan Yu. Right, Zhang Li must also be involved, they are in a group, aiming not to let Chuchu be eliminated but also wanting to give Sister Guan Yu points, so targeting the point-rich ones."
Mu Qiu continued, "The point-rich ones are only Li Yang and Sister Shu Ran, Li Yang was with us at that time, so they could only find Sister Shu Ran. Sister Shu Ran hibernated herself under the threat of being caught, needing someone to rescue, but she had no teammates or alliances."
Lin Lian added, "So only a reward announcement was possible. But regardless of who wants to get those ten points, Chuchu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Li are all by Sister Li Yang’s side, no one can get near, just waiting for time to pass."
"Shu Ran couldn’t wait anymore, couldn’t just wait until five minutes passed, from seventy-six points falling to the lowest two points in the field, thus compelled to increase the chips, just as they intended.
When the time was about right, Guan Yu, who was the only one among them not a plunderer, rescued her.
Chuchu assigned her a walking posture, but Sister Shu Ran can’t leave their encirclement, and after this event, she wouldn’t dare to hibernate again, so she was directly caught within two minutes, the deducted five points transferred to Chuchu."
At last, the two stood like colleagues solving cases, taking a bite of fruit, saying a sentence, their eyes bright.
Mu Qiu: "Now Sister Guan Yu has twenty-seven points, Chuchu has seven points. One escaped the threat of low points, and Sister Shu Ran was forced to lose twenty-five points."
Lin Lian: "Good strategy, so this game is played with brains."
