Chapter 124 The Daily Life of Raising an Internet Celebrity Cat
Have you all played Werewolf?
After a brief Q&A session, Lu Xi spoke first.
The main highlights of this show are the games. Because it's a reality show, there's no audience, which avoids any interaction with the audience and allows the show to progress quickly.
"I really enjoy playing this game. Simply put, the Werewolf game is divided into two camps: werewolves and villagers. Werewolves kill villagers, and villagers can vote out the werewolves. The side whose members survive to the end wins. Everyone should have some experience with it. Our game today is similar to Werewolf."
Lu Xi gave a brief explanation, and Kong Jie introduced the subsequent game rules.
"Do you see where we are now?"
Kong Jie pointed behind everyone, where there were ten doors in total: "Behind us is a maze-like area. Each person chooses a door to enter and draws an identity behind the door. Each person's identity will determine your stance. This time, we are divided into two sides, good and evil."
Liu Kesong picked up the conversation and gave some background information: "A day ago, two assassins infiltrated the palace, intending to assassinate the Emperor. However, the Emperor was heavily guarded, and they failed. The assassins escaped and are now hiding among the ten of us. The Emperor was furious and secretly dispatched two constables, who are also among the ten of us. After we draw our identities later, everyone will know who we are. Apart from the constables and the assassins, the remaining six are all commoners. We commoners need to assist the constables in catching the assassins and bringing them to justice before they kill us all."
"After the game starts, we will enter the maze through the door behind us. Each round of the game lasts for 30 minutes. During these 30 minutes of darkness, everyone must be on guard against the killer. After 30 minutes, it will be dawn, and we will all need to gather here to vote on who is most likely to be the killer, until all the killers are eliminated."
The game rules were simple, basically a copy of the Werewolf game, just with the werewolves and villagers switched roles. Miao Yeyu raised an eyebrow after hearing it, thinking it was so easy! He smugly reached out and flicked the bell hanging around his neck, making a crisp jingling sound. Taking advantage of the host's inattention, he quickly whispered, "Baby, watch me win you the championship!!"
Hiding in the bell, Yu Liu exclaimed, "...Ahhh! What should I do if I feel like hitting someone? You should at least be mindful of the occasion when you speak! Calling someone 'baby' so openly in front of a camera with a microphone, aren't you afraid of being mistaken for a lunatic or having your demon-slaying identity recognized by exorcists?!"
However, no matter how much she raged in her heart, Yu Liu couldn't speak out openly and could only helplessly watch Miao Yeyu court death.
Junran, who was extremely familiar with this kind of occasion, glanced at Miao Yeyu, wanting to offer a reminder, but unable to speak due to his status.
"Alright, now each of us will choose a door to go through and draw an identity. After everyone has drawn their identities, the first round of the game will begin."
Gu Weizhi, as the eldest brother, officially announced the start of the game.
All ten doors in the maze were identical, so there was no difference between them. Everyone simply chose the door closest to them, pushed it open, and went inside.
Behind the maze is a long path, and behind the door is a small table with a staff member standing behind it.
"Please draw your identity."
The staff member took out a phone provided by the sponsor and handed it to Miao Yeyu.
"So that's how you draw an identity?" Miao Yeyu shook the bell around her neck again. "Baby, watch, I'll draw you a cool identity!!"
Yuliu: "..."
Seeing that Miao Yeyu was so fond of the bell hanging around her neck, the cameraman who was filming her even pointed the lens at the bell around Miao Yeyu's neck for a close-up.
Miao Yeyu ignored the cameraman following behind him, took the phone and clicked to draw an identity. The identity he drew surprised him, because it was neither an assassin nor a constable nor a civilian.
"A gambler? What does that mean?"
Miao Yeyu asked, somewhat puzzled, "Didn't you say there were only three identities: assassin, constable, and civilian?"
"This is a hidden identity. Please take a look at the mission card."
The staff member smiled politely and handed over a task card.
Miao Yeyu took it and read the contents of the task card aloud.
"The gambler, in hiding, belongs to the assassin faction. The gambler has a gambling table covered with plus and minus signs. Every night, the gambler can spin the table once. If he spins a plus sign, the gambler will receive a special reward. If he spins a minus sign, the gambler will become enraged. In his rage, he can find a knife hidden in the maze and choose to kill someone."
"It's already night, please spin the betting plate." After Miao Yeyu finished reading the introduction, the staff brought out another betting plate full of plus and minus signs, with the plus and minus signs split in half.
"Interesting~" Miao Yeyu stroked the bell with interest. "Since I'm hiding my identity, does that mean there's more than one person hiding their identity? If that's the case, I need to be extra careful!"
As she spoke, Miao Yeyu spun the betting table. After spinning for a while, the table stopped, and the pointer landed on the plus sign.
"Not bad, where's my special reward?"
The introduction didn't mention what the special reward was, which made Miao Yeyu quite curious.
"Seriously?! Baby, look! This production team is such a rip-off!!"
When the production crew brought out a palm-sized kitten doll and said it was the special reward, Miao Yeyu was actually reluctant. So the special reward was left at the entrance, and Miao Yeyu, having exhausted her abilities, entered the maze with Yu Liu and two cameramen.
The maze was not as simple as one might imagine. There were often stacks of boxes along the way, and sometimes furniture was placed against the walls, which added a lot to the maze.
"Hmm... Baby, I think we need to find a knife first, what do you think? If we draw a minus sign in the next round, we definitely need a knife, let's find a knife first!"
Having found the knife, Miao Yeyu knew she needed to kill someone in the next round. She didn't want any more special rewards and had already made up her mind that she had to use some special means to get herself on the minus sign in the next round!
While Miao Yeyu was engrossed in searching for the knife, the situation began to become increasingly unpredictable.
-
"perish together?"
The strange-sounding voice asked the question; it was Hwang Guohui, a member of a South Korean idol group, whose Mandarin wasn't very good.
"Yes, when you choose to rebel, you can choose someone to die with him!"
"rebel?"
Hearing another word whose meaning he had no idea about, Huang Guohui subconsciously repeated it.
"You've chosen to rebel, so tell me, with whom do you intend to perish together?"
"With whom?" Huang Guohui pretended to think for a moment. Actually, there was no need to consider this question. In terms of status alone, Luo He was the least famous and the easiest to bully. "Then let's go with Luo He!"
"Okay, please write down Luo He's name."
Huang Guohui wrote Luo He's name in crooked handwriting, and the next second, a loudspeaker announced the latest situation.
Huang Guohui chose to perish together with Luo He; his identity was that of a rebel. Luo He died; his identity was that of a constable!
