Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser
Chapter 1821 Old Liang Family Residence, Who Do You Want to Die?Chapter 1821 Old Liang Family Residence, Who Do You Want to Die?
After midnight, everyone gathered in the front yard to vote, each with their own thoughts.
In the end, this was different from a regular vote, as everyone's lives were on the line. Whoever was chosen might die tonight, so their faces were very solemn and tense as they looked at each other warily.
This time, they didn't even bother to greet each other.
Not long after, Director Huang arrived. He said that he hadn't received a game mission card, but had a host card, so he would be guiding the others through the voting. The others didn't think much of it and just looked at Director Huang enviously.
Chi Shuyan took a few more looks at him.
Under the light, Director Huang's face was as amiable as ever, and his expressions were very rich and full of emotions – he did look human, and wasn't stiff at all.
Thinking of what happened last night, however, Chi Shuyan took another look at the other party's shadow on the ground, and saw that it was indeed human-shaped.
Chi Shuyan didn't relax. She narrowed her eyes and was about to look away, when the other party suddenly met her gaze. Chi Shuyan hesitated for a moment and was about to nod at him without a change in expression, when she saw his smile grow wider and wider until it reached his ears.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFor a moment, she was worried that the other party's mouth would crack open. Just then, the other party nodded at her and looked elsewhere.
Chi Shuyan looked away expressionlessly.
Soon, the voting started.
Director Huang read out the contents of his card.
It wasn't much different from his previous script – he also recited all sorts of advertisements first before announcing the start of the game, "Who Do You Want to Die Tonight?"
However, the host card also contained a lot of rules and a reward for the game.
Everyone listened seriously to Director Huang. After all, although the game rules were listed in their mission cards, there had been no mention of rewards. Moreover, who knew if the host card contained more detailed and useful rules?
This had to do with their survival, and no one was willing to be distracted.
Except for Chi Shuyan, everyone else was especially excited when they heard that there would be a reward. This reward was also related to clearing the game tomorrow night. Except for the person who was chosen tonight, everyone else would be rewarded with a clue to the game tomorrow night.
However, getting a clue still relied on luck. There were six balls.
Except for the person who was chosen tonight, the other six could each draw a ball, which might contain a real clue or a blank piece of paper, depending on their luck.
After talking about the reward, Director Huang read out the final item, which was that everyone had to abide by the rules or bear the consequences.
Following the warning, everyone's faces grew more tense and wary, and were filled with hunger; they hoped that they would be able to draw a ball with a clue later and leave this house safely tomorrow night.
They had a strong feeling that as long as they persevered until tomorrow night, they might really be able to leave this place safely. Thinking this, except for Chi Shuyan and Qi Hao, everyone else was as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Recalling what happened to Yun Yiyi when she didn't abide by the rules, no one dared to try something shady with the clues, and could only pray for good luck.
Song Yanru and Du Zhong were especially eager, their fingers clenched so tightly that they turned white. Lu Wenjing, Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen were also determined, nervous and eager for a clue.
Soon, Director Huang finished reading the contents of the host card. He gave everyone pen and paper, and had them scatter to write down the name of the person whom they wanted to die.
Qi Hao hadn't been nervous before, but when his sister-in-law drew away, he couldn't help but be a little nervous. He couldn't help but call out softly, "Sister-in-law!"
Chi Shuyan raised her eyes and glanced at him. She told him to write whatever he wanted and to calm down. Qi Hao immediately relaxed and wasn't nervous anymore. He wrote his name down. In any case, he had his sister-in-law's support. Thinking this, Qi Hao wasn't nervous anymore.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn the other hand, the corners of Chi Shuyan's mouth couldn't help but twitch when she saw Haozi finish writing his name. She wanted to say something, but didn't in the end, and simply looked away.
Before she could look away, however, she sensed a barely discernible and very cautious gaze sizing her up with a hint of malice. Chi Shuyan was very sharp. She raised her eyes quickly. Just as Song Yanru was about to look away, she was caught off guard and was caught red-handed. Song Yanru's face immediately froze. However, she was a film empress, after all, and had been in the industry for decades. Song Yanru paused for a second before she immediately squeezed out a smile.
Chi Shuyan's sharp senses were extraordinary. Even if the other party didn't show any ill intentions on his face, Chi Shuyan could clearly sense that she was paying too much attention to her and Haozi. Chi Shuyan had enough capability that other people wouldn't dare offend her, but that might not be the case for Qi Hao.
Thinking of how the other party had looked at Haozi before, Chi Shuyan instinctively thought the worst. In short, in this situation, she wasn't afraid of anything else, but of the human heart.
manner.
Song Yanru looked back at the name 'Qi Hao' which she had written After all, Haozi had 'offended' the other party before, such as when he refused to switch rooms.
Although Haozi hadn't actually offended anyone, who knew if the other party would take her anger out on him and even blame him? Moreover, Chi Shuyan didn't feel that someone who had been in the circle for decades could be so pure and innocent.
She was alarmed, but on the surface, she nodded in a friendly manner.
Song Yanru looked back at the name 'Qi Hao' which she had written on her paper in a daze. When she came back to her senses, she realized that her palms were covered in cold sweat. She didn't expect this Chi person to be so vigilant and sharp. Song Yanru regretted not being more careful just now, but from the other party's friendly expression, she probably hadn't sensed anything.
Song Yanru heaved a sigh of relief. Her gaze fell on Lu Wenjing, and she suddenly narrowed her eyes. She looked down at the name on her paper, and her lips curled up in a gloating and strange smile.
