Chapter 796: Chapter 796 Clearing the Level

Gong Qiming’s maneuver was incredibly cunning, the sort of trick a normal person wouldn’t think of.

Without any shame, he even explained, "Just now, when you were so close to me, I thought you were preparing to go out and distract the staff for us."

Zhang Caidie crawled up from the ground, nearly passing out from Gong Qiming’s shameless audacity.

Gong Qiming spoke with conviction, "We must believe in science, you know. There are no ghosts in this world, so what’s there to be scared of?"

Recalling how Gong Qiming had shiveringly hidden in the corner earlier, the staff could hardly breathe from laughter.

But the two men following next to Gong Qiming took his words to heart, not realizing he was doing it on purpose.

After all, he presented himself as the epitome of masculinity, seemingly fearless.

This created a brilliant contrast.

In the dimly lit haunted house, most guests viewed Gong Qiming as a true man of valor.

Yet those behind the cameras saw through his feigned bravery at a glance.

When the audience witnesses this scene, their feelings will probably be quite complex.

A hundred faints, a hundred faints.

A superstar of the entertainment industry, you’re indeed worthy of the title!

From then on, Zhang Caidie no longer dared to get close to Gong Qiming.

Blaming youth for not distinguishing man from beast.

Following his little junior sister, Gong Qiming began to throw his weight around again, and under the guidance of the true* genius Yue Qingqing, the group successfully evaded the pursuit of the staff time and again.

In the end, they cracked the entire haunted house script.

There was no faceless entity in the village; it was all part of the children’s game of hide and seek.

The one with the mask played the role of the "ghost" who sought others, while the rest fled in all directions.

A child ostracized in the village wanted to join the game but accidentally fell into a deep well.

The rest of the children, out of fear, fled back home, deciding to keep this secret buried deep within their hearts.

The child at the bottom of the well didn’t die immediately, optimistically thinking that his friends just hadn’t found him yet.

He was just too good at hide and seek, managing to hide so well on his first try.

In the end, the boy died a tragic death at the bottom of the well, trapped and with a broken leg.

The woman who couldn’t find her son went mad, searching day and night for her child.

The boy’s dying obsession turned into a mask that lured one person after another to the game.

Those holding the mask naturally took on the role of the "ghost" who seeks others.

They couldn’t simply keep running.

If they did, when two moons appeared in the sky when the time was up, they too would turn into ghosts, forever playing an endless game of hide and seek with the child.

But if they eventually found the little boy, they would be possessed by him and remain trapped at the bottom of the well in his place.

It was almost a certain death trap.

The so-called faceless players were those who obtained the mask, at any moment their faces could be replaced by the spirit, thus becoming "faceless."

However, Yue Qingqing saw through the crucial clue.

Ordinary players would desperately avoid the wailing, hysterical woman.

Contrarily, Yue Qingqing did the opposite.

By searching for the missing child’s keepsake, Yue Qingqing garnered trust from the woman.

Step by step, they found the tools to retrieve the skeleton props from the well and placed them in the shrine for a spiritual send-off.

Eventually, amidst the child’s crisp laughter and promises to play again in the next life, everyone opened the gateway and safely returned through the tunnel.

"I don’t care, Qingqing is the strongest! I declare from now on I’ll be her personal accessory!"

Gu Tiantian clung to Yue Qingqing’s arm, nearly crying with joy at the thought of safely leaving the haunted house.

Rong Leyi watched his quirky girlfriend with an indulgent smile.

Pei Zhe had held his wife’s hand from beginning to end, both sporting silver hair yet their affection for one another was enviable.

Gong Qiming raised his eyebrows smugly, "It was quite easy, wasn’t it? Tsk, nothing much to it!"

The production team collectively facepalmed, too drained to comment...
