TISHW 97




 Chapter 97 The Secret of the Treasure 23

Seeing Qin Shiyu's proud reaction, the audience laughed so hard:

【This isn’t the world of vampires, but the Ocean Queen’s world! Ha ha ha ha……】

【Idiots include yourself! 】

【This is hilarious. Will Qin Shiyu go crazy when he finds out the truth later? 】

At the beginning, Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen didn't have time to speak. As soon as they got out of the elevator, two staff members came over and "clicked" their necks with something.

Xiang Chen turned his head and saw that there were two red spots the size of soybeans on Ye Yuanyu's neck, like two blood holes. He reached out and touched his neck, "What does this mean?"

Jian Cang, who saw them coming down, ran over to greet them, tilted his head, and showed them the same mark on his neck. He explained, "It indicates that you have been bitten by a vampire and are evolving toward a vampire or a failed product."

Ye Yuanyu said, "So? We are evolving. Then we have tasks to do?"

"Yes," Jian Cang nodded and took out a small transparent bottle with A written on it. Inside was a red and white capsule. "Within two hours, consume two pills, A and B, at the same time and we can recover into humans.”

It was unknown what Ye Yuanyu was pondering about, "Recover into human and go back?"

Xiang Chen burst into laughter when he heard this. He spoke gently, "That's so exciting."

【Hahaha, when you say that, we are looking forward too! 】

【Five undercover agents appearing in front of Jiang Yu together, how spectacular that will be. 】

【How awkward she will be! I want to see it. 】

Thinking of this possibility, Ye Yuanyu became very pumped up, "Where did this pill come from?"

Jian Cang said, "Vampires like smart people. He will play games with us. If we win, a special medicine will be given. If we lose, he will take another bite. Then twice as many special medicines will be needed."

Xiang Chen asked, "Where to find the vampire?"

Jian Cang said, "This, he’ll appear by himself. It is a random BOSS. After encountering him, you can challenge him once by giving him 5 gold coins."

"Five gold coins?" Ye Yuanyu looked at Shu Hua and Zhou Feifei who were rummaging around, "So you are looking for gold coins?"

Jian Cang nodded, "Yes, except for Zhou Feifei, we all came here penniless."

Before they were captured, the gold coins and function cards they had on them would be left behind and shared among the remaining people. So they didn’t have any gold coins and had to find them again.

Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen looked up and examined the surroundings. This was the basement of the castle. The space they were currently in wasn't small. It was almost twice the size of the dining hall. There were many things in it, such as sofas, coffee tables, chests of drawers, closets, etc. It was arranged like an event hall.

Jian Cang said, "There aren't many places to hide things. The number is definitely not comparable to that upstairs. I have only collected ten of them so far."

One must know that he came down several minutes later than Zhou Feifei.

Ye Yuanyu asked again, "How often do the vampire come? Is it difficult to challenge?"

Jian Cang shrugged, "The time he appears is completely irregular. He had only come twice so far. As for games, there are many types. Some rely on memory. Some rely purely on luck. Anyway, Zhou Feifei failed in the challenge once. The second time Elder Brother Yu won."

Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen looked at Qin Shiyu and found that he was playing with a small transparent glass bottle in his hand, which had A written on it. It was the special medicine, the A pill.

At this time, Shu Hua found a small box from somewhere and came over. She handed it to Qin Shiyu diligently, "Elder Brother Shiyu, there is an information card!"

It was unknown if that flattering attitude was because of the embarrassment from voting for Qin Shiyu in the last round, or because she felt guilty knowing that Qin Shiyu was an undercover agent. Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen found it amusing.

When Shu Hua looked at the two of them, her face immediately changed. She crossed her arms across her chest and stated in a snippy voice, "Hey, how come you two came down? Eliminated by Bigshot with the 'one for three' card?"

A wry smile appeared on Xiang Chen, while Ye Yuanyu coughed lightly and said nothing.

【Hahaha, this episode’s focus is embarrassment. 】

Zhou Feifei smilingly came over and helped them to dissolve the situation, "It seems that the alliance between Jiang Yu and Qin Shiyu is very successful. Eliminate him very early and then eliminate you two in the end."

When Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen heard this, they couldn't resist looking at Qin Shiyu with complicated gazes.

Qin Shiyu raised his eyebrows and looked over, leisurely saying, "What, are you surprised?"

"Otherwise, why do you think you can eliminate me?" He glanced at Shu Hua and sighed, "If I haven't met a mole who couldn’t achieve anything but messing up..."

Shu Hua shrank her neck guiltily and turned to look at Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen as they began to throw the blame around, "You guys are so un-ally-minded. You are easily persuaded by me. How can you guys not trust Elder Brother Shi Yu."

Ye Yuanyu took in Qin Shiyu's proud and calm look. For some reason, he felt evil beckoning. "What un-ally-minded? The person I allied with is Jiang Yu. Of course I have to help her."

Qin Shiyu paused and raised his eyes to look at him. Shu Hua came to a halt, "What do you mean?"

Ye Yuanyu said, "Jiang Yu and I formed an alliance when we were doing puzzles. Otherwise, why would I help you hold Qin Shiyu back and let you and Jiang Yu earn his key fragments?"

At this moment, Xiang Chen had a tacit understanding with him and immediately put on a surprised expression, "You formed an alliance with Jiang Yu?"

【Hahaha, act! I’ll watch you act. 】

Ye Yuanyu turned her head and looked, "Yes, what's wrong?"

Xiang Chen said, "I have formed an alliance with Jiang Yu. We came into agreement when I showed her the puzzle."

He looked at Shu Hua, "That’s why when you proposed to eliminate Qin Shiyu, I went along. At that time, if Ye Yuanyu wasn't present, I would have revealed it to you."

Shu Hua blinked, looked at Qin Shiyu. At once, she angrily huffed, "You lied to me!? You didn't form an alliance with Jiang Yu at all! You said you hid it the deepest,"

She vented out, "I even felt guilty toward you !”

Qin Shiyu:......

【Hahaha, Shu Hua, you are too naive. 】

【Huahua, we can expand the situation a little bit. Is there a possibility that the people Jiang Yu forms an alliance with include Qin Shiyu. 】

Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen pretended to have caught on. Xiang Chen said, "So she has formed an alliance with both of us, then..."

He looked at Qin Shiyu, "You have formed an alliance too?"

Qin Shiyu slowly played with the box in his hands and leaned back on the sofa. He said casually, "We formed an alliance in the last episode. Don't you know? All my points are on her. Why do you feel that she is sincerely allied with you?"

Everyone:...

【LOL, our God Yu will never admit defeat. Even if Jiang Yu is the ocean queen, he is the one who formed the earliest alliance and have the strongest relationship. 】

【He didn't want to recognize Shu Hua or Jian Cang. Our God Yu cannot accept Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen. 】

Ye Yuanyu looked at him, "So is it because you have the most sincere alliance, you are the first to be eliminated?"

Qin Shiyu:......

【Hahaha, Ye Yuanyu is so brave. He actually dared give Qin Shiyu a stab. 】

【LOL, first time seeing Qin Shiyu rendered speechless, hahahaha. 】

His rare expression made Xiang Chen and Jian Cang couldn't help but chuckle. Because Shu Hua had wronged Qin Shiyu again, she could only hide behind Jian Cang silently and endure the hardship of not laughing.

Zhou Feifei on the side finally understood, "So Jiang Yu has formed an alliance with all of you?"

She laughed, "Then it's not unjust for me to be eliminated in the first round."

Xiang Chen looked at her, "She didn't want to eliminate you. She wanted to eliminate herself."

Zhou Feifei:......

【Hahaha, yes, she was more confused than you at the time. 】

【If possible, Jiang Yu would be willing to be the first to come here. Then the current scene wouldn't happen. 】

Ye Yuanyu said, "So in the second round, she also..."

Qin Shiyu remembered she was the only one who hadn’t cast a vote for him. He slowly rubbed his fingers.

Shu Hua was curious, "What about the third round? How did you get eliminated?"

This time it was Ye Yuanyu's turn to be silent. Xiang Chen couldn't resist laughing out loud.

Everyone immediately became interested. Jian Cang asked, "What happened this time?"

Xiang Chen grinned, "Jiang Yu originally wanted to eliminate herself. She and I voted for Yuan Yu, but Ye Yuanyu used an ‘one for two’ on me. So we each had two votes and got eliminated."

Jian Cang asked, "It's not that simple, right? What next?"

Xiang Chen glanced at Ye Yuanyu and smiled, "Yes, that was initially the case. Yuanyu thought too much and was worried that I would form an alliance with Jiang Yu. So he used a forced exchange card with Jiang Yu."

Everyone couldn't resist looking at Zhou Feifei after hearing this. Zhou Feifei didn't want to accept this kind of attention and said quickly, "Then it should be you and Jiang Yu who are eliminated. Why is it that Ye Yuanyu came down?"

When Xiang Chen said this, he couldn't resist laughing on Ye Yuanyu's shoulder, "Because Jiang Yu had the same thought. She wanted to be eliminated, so she used the forced exchange card on Ye Yuanyu."

Everyone:...

"Pfft, hahahaha..." Jian Cang laughed and fell on the sofa, "Elder Brother Ye, hahaha..."

Shu Hua held the back of the sofa and covered her stomach while laughing, "So, is this considered as luck in another sense?"

Qin Shiyu was amused.

Shortly later, Jian Cang, who had finally laughed enough, sat up, "So Elder Sister Yu has formed an alliance with everyone. Because she didn't know who to eliminate, she wanted to eliminate herself and run away. Unexpectedly, because you guys schemed too much and let her stay until now?"

After he concluded this, others felt that she was pitiful and it was hilarious. Anyway, they couldn't get angry.

Shu Hua recalled something, "No wonder she looked at me so enviously when I was taken away. I thought she felt sorry for me."

Qin Shiyu remembered Jiang Yu's embarrassed look at that time. He thought she was too soft-hearted to eliminate people, now it seemed that she was simply afraid of overturning.

Xiang Chen grinned, "We all worked hard not to be eliminated,while she, who worked so hard to be eliminated, stayed at the end."

As soon as this was said, everyone burst out laughing again.

"So now we have to quickly complete the task and go find her?" Zhou Feifei secretly rejoiced, "Since we aren't completely eliminated, then let’s have a final showdown with her?" Six people versus one person. We will definitely win, right?

Jian Cang imagined that scene and couldn't stop laughing, "If we appear in front of her together, will Elder Sister Yu be shocked?"

"All allies had been eliminated by her." Xiang Chen smiled gently, "Everyone can guilt trip her then."

【I almost forgot that Xiang Chen is a black-bellied fox. He is so heartless. 】

Ye Yuanyu patted Xiang Chen on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up.

Jian Cang said, "I guess Elder Sister Yu will find a crack in the ground to burrow into."

As he said this, he actively started looking for gold coins, clearly anticipating this scene.

Seeing Qin Shiyu sitting still, Shu Hua asked doubtfully, "Elder Brother Shiyu?"

Qin Shiyu took out the card from the box, "No need to work, we can wait for her to save us."

Shu Hua was confused, "Will Bigshot come to save us?"

Qin Shiyu gave her the card. Others gathered around. Shu Hua read it, "It takes seven people to work together to obtain the wish coin. If your comrade comes to rescue you, will you forgive her?"

Everyone:...

Shu Hua couldn't help but feel sorry for Jiang Yu, "The show truly put people on the spot..."

The audience roared with laughters:

【Hahaha, this episode is simply awesome. 】

【Damn, I'm going to die laughing. Jiang Yu thought she was finally free after everyone was eliminated. Unforeseen, she will have to come to save people herself. 】

As if to let them make a better choice, the electronic screen on the wall behind them suddenly turned on. Jiang Yu's figure appeared on the screen.

Knowing that Jiang Yu would come to rescue them, everyone looked on like they were watching the drama and stopped looking for gold coins. They all sat down on the sofa and stared at her.

At this time, Jiang Yu had already counted the gold coins left by everyone. It was still a little short. So she searched for a while. Finally, she used a double card to collect 500 gold coins and started to head to the fourth floor.

However, the stairwell on the fourth floor no longer had a puzzle. Instead, there was a fork leading to the elevator. There was a red arrow posted on it that read: 【Go rescue her comrades.  】Beside it was an instruction card.

Jiang Yu stopped and opened the card, only to see: 【Giving up the opportunity to go to the top floor and save your friends. They are waiting for you. How do you choose? 】

Xiang Chen watched this part with a grin, "I'm looking forward to this. What should we do when she comes?"

However, after he finished speaking and before others had time to respond, Jiang Yu on the screen put down the card and decisively turned upstairs.

Everyone:...

【Pfft hahahaha...Jiang Yu, you are finished! 】

【Damn it, it’s enough that the bus overturned! You even refused to save them! It’s truly over for you. 】

【She probably doesn’t dare to go because she thought she had overturned, right? 】

【But she probably didn’t know that the program team actually let her companion watch her. 】

【Now it’s great. The crime has aggravated, hahahaha. 】

【The program team was so wicked. But I love it, hahaha. 】

Jiang Yu didn't know that the program team would be so wicked. When she saw the note saying that they were eagerly waiting for her, she felt her scalp go numb. This proved that they were locked up together...

So between the embarrassment of overturning and abandoning her teammates, she chose to abandon them.

The furnishings on the fourth floor were surprisingly simple. There was only a slightly empty hall. One could see everything at a glance. There weren't even the failed products hunting. There was a transparent acrylic ball hanging with a colorful rope in the middle of the hall. There was a fist-sized ball inside. On the colored coins, one could clearly see the words "Wish Coin".

Jiang Yu looked around and saw several game coin-like devices in the corner. A bad feeling suddenly arose in her heart.

Walking to one of the devices, she saw the instructions posted next to it: 【Insert one hundred gold coins into the five coin slots at the same time. Press the switch buttons in the east and west corners at the same time within two seconds after inserting the gold coins. Then you get the wish coins. 】

Jiang Yu:……

Not to mention the audience, even Jian Cang in the basement was already rolling on the sofa with laughter, "Pfft hahaha, Elder Sister Yu has to come and save us."

Xiang Chen's shoulders shook with laughter, "What to do? I feel a little pity for her now."

Ye Yuanyu leaned on the sofa and laughed, "It's good to be eliminated."

Although others may not be as embarrassed as Jiang Yu, half of the embarrassment was enough.

Shu Hua had already begun to worry about Jiang Yu. She looked at Qin Shiyu, "Let's forgive her a little later..."

Qin Shiyu looked at Jiang Yu on the screen with a noncommittal smile on his lips.

Jiang Yu was making her final struggle. She didn't go downstairs and looked around, hoping to find some way to open the exit without rescuing anyone. However, before taking two steps, she saw an arrow that was as conspicuous as the fork in the road. Mark: 【Rescue your companions from here, they are waiting for you 】

Jiang Yu:……

Qin Shiyu took in his expression of "I refuse! I absolutely don't want to go" and snorted, "She doesn't seem to want us to forgive..."
