Chapter 779: I’ve Never Seen Such a Thing!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Chi Jiao was very depressed because a voice in her heart was telling her that her intuition was right. This matter was definitely related to Espers. But she had yet to find any evidence.
“The detector has never detected She Qi before, either. Perhaps there’s some kind of connection between them…” Chi Jiao muttered to herself. After saying that, she casually opened the drawer and surprisingly found a key inside.
A ribbon was tied to the key with the words “The Advanced Hero” written on it. It was obvious that it was one of the three keys the production team had hidden.
Chi Jiao didn’t expect to be so lucky. She casually took out the key and placed it under the pillow, but all she could think about was that flower pot.
As she thought about checking on the situation tomorrow morning, Chi Jiao laid on the bed and closed her eyes, falling asleep.
The next morning, everyone got up and contacted the production team to tell them about what happened yesterday.
The production team immediately sent someone to ask Xiong Junxi what happened last night when he woke up half an hour later.
Xiong Junxi wasn’t as brave as before. He looked panic-stricken in front of the camera as he stammered about his encounter last night.
As the live stream was still ongoing, the production team recorded Xiong Junxi’s fearful expression during his interview.
Xiong Junxi couldn’t care less about his image anymore. Towards the end, he almost broke down. “T… I’ve never believed in ghosts. I’ve also explored this haunted house before in one of my live streams. But I’ve never seen such a thing before! Frightening. Too scary. Ghosts really exist!”
The director deliberately provoked him. “Are you sure this is not some gimmick you prepared just to attract attention? What if you were just putting on an act?”
Xiong Junxi was instantly angered. He exposed the wound on his neck and said in exasperation, “Take a good look at this. If it was just an act, would I have injured myself like this? I was possessed by a ghost! I don’t care. I’m quitting this damn show! I’m not doing it anymore!”
The director glanced at the cameraman, who immediately turned off the camera.
The director looked at Xiong Junxi and said with a faint smile, “Junxi, I know you were shocked this time, but you can’t terminate your contract just like that. You have to think carefully. You already signed the contract. If you quit now, you’ll have to pay the penalty fee. Do you… have that much money?”
Xiong Junxi didn’t have that much money. His expression changed as he straightened his neck and continued loudly, “But I can’t risk my own life, right? Something has already happened to me. If something like this happens again, will your production team be responsible?!”
“Don’t worry. I’ll give you more money, okay? Don’t be so anxious. We can discuss this.” The director knew very well that with Xiong Junxi’s incident, the number of viewers would definitely explode. He couldn’t miss such a good opportunity. “How about this? I’ll give you 30,000 yuan. Just for you. How
about that?”
After Xiong Junxi heard this, his attitude was no longer as intense as before. His expression softened a little as he nodded in agreement.
