Chapter 266

Just as the crawling female ghost was about to jump out and scare people, Nan Xiangwan suddenly spoke up, "Your shoelaces are untied."

Silence filled the eerie scene.

The roaring crawling female ghost fell silent, looking bewildered as she stood frozen in place.

Nan Xiangwan said, "You should tie your shoelaces first. You might trip."

Indeed, this NPC (non-player character) needed both hands and feet to move around, sometimes even standing up to scare people.

The dangling shoelaces swayed dangerously, appearing highly precarious.

The crawling female ghost stopped and sat on the ground, silently tying her shoelaces.

Bullet comments flooded in:

- "What the heck??"

- "I'm dying of laughter! Literally pounding the table, hahaha!"

- "Nan Xiangwan, how on earth did you notice that her shoelaces were untied amidst such a terrifying situation?"

- "Someone please capture this silly girl on camera! I want to kowtow to her!"

- "God-tier hidden bug!"

And so, what was originally a frightening scene suddenly became filled with a burst of humor.

Even Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou weren't afraid anymore; they leaned against the wall, laughing.

The NPC crawling female ghost tied her shoelaces and, after giving it some thought, decided to continue with her performance.

She approached and grabbed a few people while repeatedly shouting, "Hand it over! Hand it over!"

After shouting, the crawling female ghost quickly fled.

But the keywords had been delivered.

Guan Liangzhe chuckled against the wall, saying, "The NPC's voice even changed pitch."

Lan Tianyou added, "The fierce female ghost, who was initially so menacing, completely lost her momentum after Nan Xiangwan's scare."

Guan Liangzhe exclaimed, "From now on, Nan Xiangwan should do this every time. It immediately takes away the fear factor."

Lan Tianyou agreed, "Yes, yes, this method works!"

Only Gu Beihuai was pondering, his eyes lighting up as he looked at Nan Xiangwan in excitement. "It's her good friend. The ghost upstairs is looking for her good friend, and the crawling female ghost downstairs is the good friend from upstairs. But because they're not on the same floor, they're searching for each other? Or perhaps they need a token of friendship?"

Nan Xiangwan replied, "Oh, I see! It must be a token of friendship!"

Guan Liangzhe scratched his head in confusion, asking, "Really? It can't be that simple, can it?"

Lan Tianyou said, "I can't think right now. I'm too scared silly."

Meanwhile, backstage, the director's team, who had been monitoring the situation, suddenly jumped up.

Hua Yuanwu asked, "Did any of you show the script to Mr. Gu?"

Everyone vigorously shook their heads, saying, "No! Mr. Gu wasn't at the company before, so no one has met him!"

Hua Yuanwu exclaimed, "Then how did he figure it out? How can we continue filming this show?"

Silence hung in the air.

At that moment, a timid voice spoke up, "It was Nan Xiangwan who gave him the hint."

Hua Yuanwu slammed the table and declared, "We'll increase the difficulty in the next episode and no longer provide flashlights! Are these two here to sabotage the show?"

In the game, the four of them stumbled upon the key by accident. They walked through the corridor, shining their flashlights.

First, they found the circuit breaker box and turned it on.

Finally, the lights came on!

Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou had been huddling together, shivering, but as soon as the lights came on, they immediately separated, pretending as if they hadn't been holding each other.

Having the lights made things much more convenient, and the four of them walked around the corridor.

They discovered that there were a total of four rooms, all locked.

So they needed to unlock the locks on these rooms and find clues inside.

Gu Beihuai initiated a brainwave, instantly unlocking the first room.

His swift actions not only left the live-streaming audience perplexed, but also bewildered the other three.

What just happened?

How did it open?

Huh???

The backstage directing team panicked and quickly arranged for NPCs to enter and create disturbances.

Unlocking it so quickly, this can't be allowed!

Thus, the difficulty was temporarily increased.

...

Gu Beihuai pushed open the door and walked in, first searching for a light.

It was a four-person room, also resembling a prison.

As expected, the single rooms were upstairs, while the downstairs rooms were shared.

The beds in the four-person room were equally simple, piled with miscellaneous items.

Gu Beihuai was the first to enter, flashlight in hand, before Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou could enter.

Flicker!

The lights in the corridor started flashing again!

Immediately after, the crawling female ghost appeared once more!

With a roaring howl, she pounced.

Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou were frightened and instinctively clung to each other, screaming.

Nan XiangWan stood still, watching as the crawling female ghost charged toward her.

Clang!

The door slammed shut.

Then it was quickly locked with a large lock, the kind that required a key to open.

After completing all of this, the crawling female ghost scared Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou once more before leaving.

And so, the four of them were separated.

Gu Beihuai was locked up alone!

Once the female ghost left, the lights in the corridor returned.

Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou were drenched in sweat, huddled together in a panic.

Nan XiangWan tilted her head, looking at the large lock in front of her.

Rip—

Should she break it?

Gu Beihuai's voice came from inside the room: "This should be a game segment. You two go to the next room."

Nan XiangWan led the two of them away and stood at the entrance of the second room, observing the area around the door.

The password lock on the door corresponded to the decryption on the wall.

Nan XiangWan tilted her head and looked for a long time, then gave up.

She wasn't good at decryption!

At a critical moment, Lan Tianyou stepped forward: "You two protect me, I'll take a look."

After observing for a while, Lan Tianyou found a pattern.

Ten minutes later, he unlocked the password lock.

But upon opening the door, Lan Tianyou immediately hid and dared not enter.

Nan XiangWan, on the other hand, boldly walked in and took a look around.

She had night vision and didn't need to search for a light.

Meanwhile, Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou stayed in the lit area of the corridor outside.

The two sides shouted to each other from a distance of three to five meters.

Guan Liangzhe: "How is it? Did you find anything?"

Lan Tianyou: "Did you find the light? Can we come in?"

Just as they finished shouting...

Flicker!

The lights started flickering again!

Both of them instinctively wanted to rush in, thinking it would be safe with Nan XiangWan.

But they didn't expect...

The crawling female ghost appeared from inside the room.

She suddenly emerged from a cabinet door and charged toward the entrance.

In an instant, Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou were scared witless and turned to run!

Oh my god!

How is there still one in the room?

Nan XiangWan turned around and saw the female ghost charging out, taking the door with her.

And then, as before, she locked it.

Nan XiangWan: "..."

She was locked up again?

She was locked up again!

And so, the two great tanks among the four were separately detained, leaving only Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou, the two little weaklings, outside.

Continue the decryption!

The barrage started bursting with laughter, and it seems like the production team is really enjoying watching people struggle.

Whoever has the least courage has the most crucial task.

Sending Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou to rescue someone?

Hahaha!

Guan Liangzhe and Lan Tianyou also realized this at the moment, and they embraced each other, first shedding tears and then continuing to unravel the mystery.

After unlocking the password lock of the third room, the two looked at each other.

Who should go in?

Let's go in together!

But before the two could make a decision...

A crawling female ghost reached out and forcefully dragged Guan Liangzhe away.

Let me in!

Bang!

The door closed and locked!

Done in one go!

In the end, only Lan Tianyou was left.
