Chapter 154: Connections

’Master Producer?’

"Who’s that?" Adrian asked beside him.

Rayen shook his head in response. How could he know? If he knew, would there even be the word "mysterious" placed beside it?

How do they even find this person? Was this person a participant like them too? Or were they one of the mentors?

Rayen read the details of the mission once more, his eyes hovering at the part beneath the instructions.

[Deadline: 24 hours]

’There’s no penalty...’

More questions filled Rayen’s mind. Was it because it was just a bonus mission?

If that was the case, then he’d gladly accept it. But first, were there any clues to find who this master producer was?

Rayen could only think of one clue — the word, "her". It was clearly specified what the Master Producer’s gender was.

However, that’s it.

"What do you think?" Rayen asked.

Adrian shrugged. "No idea."

Sigh.

’Just where the hell is Mini Plotter?!’

If that thing was here, he could just ask who that producer was. Where the hell did that thing run off to?

’Seriously, whenever he’s needed, he always disappears!’

Rayen clutched his head in frustration. Adrian laughed, watching in amusement.

"Well, well, Mr. Vocalist, giving up already?"

"Huh? Of course not," Rayen denied. "It’s just that... How do I ever know who this Master Producer is? I only know her gender. Aside from that, there’s nothing. What could I do with just one clue? It’s not as if I’m a detective."

But Adrian still chuckled as though teasing him.

"My, my... Don’t you have me?"

"What? I thought you had no idea who this person was?"

"That’s right."

Rayen looked at him with a deadpan expression.

’Then why are you looking so smug?’

As if Adrian already knew what Rayen was thinking, he said, "I have no idea about her, but I have the greatest strength you need."

Rayen didn’t believe him even a little bit.

"What’s it then?"

Adrian smiled lazily. "Connections."

’Connections?’

"What do you mean?" Rayen asked, frowning in confusion.

Yeah, Rayen knew that Adrian was friendly. A bit too friendly even. That could be what he meant by "connections." However, what could it do?

"Have you forgotten about it already?" Adrian asked with a disappointed look on his face.

Then, he took out his own phone and waved it in front of Rayen.

’Yeah, right. What do we do with that?’

In that moment, something flashed past Rayen’s mind.

"Do you mean..."

"Yeah?" Adrian smirked.

What he meant by connection was the ability to see someone else’s complete Status Window if they were considered friends.

And just yesterday, Rayen saw just how many "connections" this person had.

"Hmm... Let’s see. Who’re my precious connections?" Adrian smiled wistfully, sending a wink to Rayen.

Rayen shuddered in disgust. "What do you want?"

"Heh. I knew you’d get it immediately." Adrian raised his fingers. "You owe me five wishes."

"What am I? A genie?"

Adrian laughed.

"Even a genie only offers three wishes!" Rayen complained.

"Okay, three wishes," Adrian readily agreed, nodding.

Rayen’s lips twitched. Why did it feel like he was just duped?

’Did this guy bait me to accept his demand?’

Well, Rayen had already accepted it. No use taking it back.

Sighing, he snatched Adrian’s phone from him and immediately headed toward his friends list. Seeing the long list of names, Rayen’s eyes nearly bulged out of its socket.

’He’s already friends with everyone?! How did he accomplish his team mission, then?’

Rayen sneaked a peek at Adrian, only to see him smiling with his eyes. Shifting his gaze back on the screen, he scrolled down on the list.

’I just hope this Master Producer is a participant. I’ve just given this lazy writer a leverage out of me!’

Considering the gender of the producer in the instruction, Rayen filtered out the male participants. Out of the remaining 24 participants, the female names on the list only numbered six. The fake males, Iris and Xi Huan, were also included in it.

’Since biologically, they were still females, huh?’

And out of the six participants, only two of them weren’t Rayen’s friend. Rayen was starting to regret accepting Adrian’s proposal. If one of these two wasn’t the Master Producer, then his sacrifice was just in vain.

Well... Since he had already agreed, it didn’t matter if he regretted it now or not. Clicking his tongue, Rayen tapped on one of the names he wasn’t acquainted with.

[Name: Ara

Stage Name: None

Vocals: A+

Dance: A

Visuals: A

Production: B+

Team: C+]

Rayen was envious just looking at the triple A. However, he immediately dismissed Ara’s Status window when he saw her Production stats.

A Master Producer couldn’t possibly have a B+ Production stat, right?

The next one Rayen chose was someone he wasn’t familiar with. However, her production skills were even worse than Ara’s.

Sigh.

Now, he really regretted that he made a deal with Adrian.

Still, he chose to use Adrian’s phone to take a peek on the status of the remaining four girls.

That way, he could deceive himself into thinking it was worth it.

[Name: Iris Steele

Stage Name: Iris

Vocals: B+

Dance: B-

Visuals: A+

Production: D

Team: B+]

It wasn’t Iris either.

Rayen dismissed her Status Window and tapped on another.

[Name: Xi Huan

Stage Name: None

Vocals: B+

Dance: B+

Visuals: B+

Production: D+

Team: B+]

Not the magician either.

If not for her low production skill, her straight B+ stats could be considered a jack of all trades but master of none.

Once again, he dismissed it and tapped on another.

Gulp.

’What the hell is this...’

Rayen’s eyes hovered on this person’s production skill, wondering if what he was seeing was some kind of bug.

But if it wasn’t then... this was the first time he had seen it.

The rank beyond the S-rank.

Rayen grinned. "I found her."

"Who?"

Adrian was also curious. He had only added the rest of the show’s participants today, and hadn’t gotten any chance to look at their stats yet.

Leaning closer toward Rayen, he peeked at the screen of his own phone.

"Seriously?"

A cold sweat ran down Adrian’s back. He couldn’t believe what was in front of his eyes.
