Chapter 271 Profound, are you awake?
Chapter 271 Profound, are you awake?
Wei Qingchun was halfway through his thought when suddenly the quiet was shattered—the loudspeaker in the yard started blasting deafening music. Even though it wasn't in the room, the sound was loud enough to blow the roof off.
Lu Renkui and Wei Qingchun, who were already awake in the kitchen and inside Sen Ouling's body, were startled by the sudden, extremely loud music, not to mention the other guests who were still half asleep.
Lu Renkui and Wei Qingchun were taken aback when they saw the photographer suddenly barge into the kitchen. Lu Renkui then raised her hand to greet the photographer.
The reflective lens distorted the face of the person it was reflecting, and then shrunk the person's original face on the screen.
The other guests, who hadn't gotten out of bed yet, were already wide awake by the music. They got out of bed and tried to show off their looks or their variety show skills in front of the camera—some tried to show a messy beauty, while others yawned at the camera in a way that looked like it could be used as a meme.
After everyone finished eating, they gathered in the courtyard. Once everyone was gathered, a staff member brought out a board covered with balloons and a toy gun.
Seeing this, Lu Renkui guessed what the production team was going to do.
Sure enough, Director Wang raised the megaphone and said, "We are now on a board with 30 balloons on it. Five of the balloons contain silver powder, and two contain gold powder."
"Each person has 5 chances to pop balloons. The more balloons you pop, the more points you get."
"If you hit the balloon filled with silver powder, you will receive two tool cards. If you hit the balloon filled with gold powder, in addition to receiving two tool cards, you can also freely choose the next task."
"Mission? Director, what mission do we have this morning?" Sheng Kailin asked, his hands in the pockets of his leather jacket.
"The time for exchanging points for food is over," Director Wang said coldly, turning the loudspeaker up to the maximum volume. "From now on, you will have to earn money through part-time jobs to pay for your own meals."
Upon hearing this, a series of groans erupted from the group of guests.
Ignoring the cries of anguish, Director Wang continued assigning tasks: "Points can be exchanged for tool cards, or used to offset part of the money for dinner. Anyway, good luck to all the guests."
A staff member walked up to the guests with a toy gun, and then the director's voice was amplified through a loudspeaker: "Now, which of you teachers would like to go first?"
"I'll go first!" Sheng Kailin, known as the show's most eye-catching person, confidently stepped forward, took the gun from the staff member, walked to the table that had been set up in the yard, took a deep breath, then struck a cool gun-raising pose, and then pulled the trigger of the toy gun five times in a row.
"Bang! Bang bang!" The toy bullets landed on the board, leaving five red dots, and at the same time, three balloons burst.
The guests behind them made a few timely comments of surprise and support, and several cameras spun around Sheng Kailin and the other male guests' faces—these will probably be edited into a very dramatic scene later on.
However, with the next person coming on stage, that segment might not be able to be edited out.
"Who else?!" Sheng Kailin shouted, raising his hands above his head. He had a smile on his face and seemed very satisfied with his performance.
After cheering himself on, Sheng Kailin lowered his hands, held up his toy gun, and walked over to the other guests who hadn't yet completed their tasks. His eyes swept over the men in the group, his face full of provocation: "Who's next?"
"I'm ready." It was a girl's voice, and a hand was outstretched. People instinctively turned their heads to find the direction from which the voice came, and then they found that it was "Sen Ouling".
Lu Renkui thought it would be better to shoot them as soon as possible. There were so many balloons now, and Shengkailin hadn't seen any gold or silver powder balloons appear earlier. If they shot them now, they might get more rewards.
Seeing a girl extend her hand, Sheng Kailin felt embarrassed to refuse—although he originally wanted his rivals to take it, so that if they didn't hit more balloons than he had, he could laugh at them properly—he put the toy gun in "Sen Ouling's" hand.
Lu Renkui also walked to the table. Although she had already thought that the distance between the balloons and the table might be far, she was still surprised by the distance when she actually stood there.
It's a bit far, but the gun feels pretty good in the hand. Lu Renkui rubbed the toy gun in her hand, remembering that before her car accident, one of her favorite things to do was take her younger sister to various stalls to play games and win prizes.
This includes, but is not limited to, throwing rings to win toys, popping balloons to win plush toys, throwing beanbags at toys, and playing claw machines.
Most of the toys in the house were won by Lu Renkui.
Because of her high accuracy rate, Lu Renkui was blacklisted by the owners of various stalls that relied on both luck and skill. Specifically, if she went to play, the owner would ask her to pay 20 yuan, then lay out a row of items and let her pick a few at random.
It's been a long time since I've played. The last time I touched a gun was when I was inside Maria and Elisa's body, using a laser gun. Lu Renkui thought to herself, she decided to fire a shot first to test the waters and get a feel for it.
As the toy gun fired, a balloon burst.
Hearing the sound of the balloon bursting, Lu Renkui felt a sense of pleasure—a pleasure that her luck and skill had been recognized.
The feeling was coming! Lu Renkui's hands were itching, so he picked up the gun, aimed at a red balloon, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" The red balloon exploded with a loud bang, and then the silver powder inside drifted down and landed on the balloons below, adding some colorful silver light to the balloons' monotonous color.
Lu Renkui was completely absorbed in the feeling of popping the balloons and did not notice the cheers from the guests and teammates behind him. He simply aimed at another target and pulled the lever.
Another loud explosion echoed through the courtyard—another balloon had burst.
The cameramen carrying the cameras are very busy now—they have to film the expressions on Sen Ouling's face as well as the expressions on the faces of the other guests.
There's no way around it, "Sen Ouling" hits the target every time, it's really unbelievable, and its luck is just too good.
It has to be said that Sen Ouling's serious and earnest expression, combined with her movements, makes it very easy to create a great photo, while the expressions of the guests behind her are more and more interesting.
Besides Wei Qingchun and Huali's normal surprised expressions, there were also Jiang Xinhe and Lu Haichuan's expressions of envy and longing for the strong, Xiao Keyuan and Shen Changming's furrowed brows in thought, and Sheng Kailin's smile that was about to burst.
But none of this mattered to Lu Renkui, who was inside Sen Ouling's body—she had two shots left, and she was determined to pop a balloon filled with gold dust.
So Lu Renkui started looking for the differences between these balloons.
It's morning now, and it's not hard to see that some balloons have unusual shadows on their bottoms. Those balloons with unusual shadows are the ones filled with gold or silver powder.
So Lu Renkui started targeting balloons with unusual shadows.
Another balloon burst, its silver dust bringing its life to a beautiful close.
"Silver dust again." Lu Renkui clicked his tongue inwardly, then began searching for the gold dust; he only had one chance to pop the balloons.
After examining all the balloons with unusual shadows, Lu Renkui's gun barrel hovered between two adjacent balloons that were closer to the edge.
Since both balloons had abnormal shadows, the production team probably wouldn't put the gold powder in the very center—because the two balloons closest to the center, which were two of the four balloons that Lu Renkui shot down in four shots, both had silver powder.
So the gold dust is probably one of the two adjacent balloons on the edge.
Which one should it be? Lu Renkui hesitated, but after thinking about it, she finally chose the one on top.
Just as Lu Renkui was about to pull the lever, he heard a young woman's voice in his mind: "Ah, I'm so dizzy. Did I successfully commit suicide? Where am I?"
Sen Ouling has woken up? The original owner of this body has woken up again?
Lu Renkui was distracted by the sound, and the gun he was aiming at tilted slightly, firing at the balloon below instead.
"Oops, I missed." That was Lu Renkui's first reaction when the shot rang out, but unfortunately, it was too late.
"Bang!" The balloon exploded, which was unexpected by Lu Renkui—she had thought the shot would miss.
"Wow!" Cheers and applause erupted behind him, and Lu Renkui finally snapped out of his daze, remembering that there was a row of people behind him.
Then Lu Renkui went to look at the balloons to see if they were dropping gold or silver powder.
It's gold dust.
Lu Renkui's mood was even brighter than before.
After happily taking the tool card, Lu Renkui heard the system WQBYRZM in his mind talking to Sen Ouling in a calm tone as if it were nothing out of the ordinary. He knew that he no longer needed to worry about the original owner's side, so he began to think about the description of this part in the original plot and what task he should choose next.
The original story doesn't describe this part in much detail. The main content is that Xiao Keyuan becomes a waiter to complete a task for the show and has his first encounter with the female lead, Qiao Baijiao (the version of Sen Ouling who didn't transmigrate into her body).
