Chapter 233: The Punishment

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There was only one short sentence written on the clue card.

It seemed to be a clue related to the plot.

“Dear guests, please take note that each of the following missions will have a clear time limit. If you can’t complete the mission within the specified time, you’ll be punished accordingly.”

The announcement sounded. It was clearly an emotionless mechanical voice, but it sounded much colder now. “The first mission. All the guests are required to return to the conference room on the fifth floor. The time limit is three minutes. The time starts now.”

Bai Lin looked at the half-eaten orange with a pained expression and ran to the stairs.

The group quickly followed, but they were surprised to find that the door to the stairs was tightly locked.

If they were to go upstairs directly, three minutes would definitely be enough. However, the keys in Zheng You’s hands were only for the fifth to third floor and could not open the doors on the first and second floors.

“This is great. We’re just waiting to be punished.” After Li Xuan had rested enough, he could not help but start to talk again.

“What kind of severe punishment can there be? It’s just for show.” Zheng You glared at Li Xuan. Li Xuan had just mocked her, and she was bearing the grudge in mind.

The others were actually not very flustered. After all, as Zheng You had said, it was just an escape room show. No matter how strict it was, it could not be that bad.

“Get out of the way.” Bai Lin had returned with the fire extinguisher somehow.

She picked up the fire extinguisher and smashed it on the door handle!

The old-fashioned door lock was usually connected to the doorknob. If the doorknob was broken, the door would naturally open.

[No matter how many times I watch it, I still want to exclaim at Lin-jies operation. She’s really a boorish person!]

[She picked the lock and smashed the door. I think she’s just a pilfered gangster!]

[Zheng You’s fans, can you stop embarrassing yourself? How high and mighty is your Zheng Idiot?]

[Lin-jie’s vividly shown that the process is more important than the result.]

All the doors on the third floor and above could be 0Dened with a kev. but Bai Lin still planned to break them down by force.

In her words, it was “if everyone wants to be punished, we can slowly try the keys out.”

Yan Ruo took the fire extinguisher from her hands and took over the task of smashing the doors.

Bai Lin did not object. She felt that Yan Ruo was not as weak as she had thought, but she still felt that he was extremely fragile.

The two of them cooperated with each other tacitly. As soon as the fire extinguisher in Yan Ruo’s hand went smashing down, Bai Lin immediately kicked the door open. This way, the efficiency was even higher.

The last person to enter the conference room was Ye Xing who was physically weaker. Her face was red from running up to the fifth floor. She clutched her chest and panted lightly at the door.

After everyone entered the meeting room, they were all waiting for the announcement. Unexpectedly, the broadcast speaker did not say a word.

“Director! Your broadcast system is damaged!” Li Xuan said slyly again.

Sun Han did not expect Bai Lin and Yan Ruo to pass the test in such a way. The original design of this segment was to let them receive punishment. This way, it would be interesting and could also stimulate the guests’ enthusiasm for deciphering the quests.

In previous episodes, the production team would deliberately set up such levels. The first punishment would not be too excessive. It was usually colorful smoke bombs, water gun punishment, stepping on balloons, and so on— penalties that were also entertaining.

After the punishment was over, there would naturally be NPCs who would give the guests props or clues to pass the level.

Now, though, Bai Lin had ruined his plan. Xiao Wang was quickly pulling up the corresponding voice message for the next mission.

Sun Han touched his chin. “Xiao Wang, divide them into two groups to do the mission. The grouping will be arranged like this…”

“Huh? Director, isn’t the game too difficult like this?” Xiao Wang was a little worried that the guests would not be able to complete the task.

“What are you afraid of? We’ll just give them clues and props after the punishment! We’ll do this!” Sun Han slammed the table and changed the game structure again.

“Congratulations to all the guests for completing your mission within the stipulated time!” The mechanical voice rang out, and everyone immediately focused on listening.

“New mission released now. There is a second piece of clue paper hidden in the conference room. Please find it. Selected guests to complete the task are Bai Lin, Jing Shan, Li Xuan, and Zheng You. The time limit is 20 minutes. The time starts now!”

“What? Only the four of us can complete it? Then what are the three of them doing?” Li Xuan asked loudly.

“The other three guests, please move to the archive room to receive a new mission.”

The seven of them were divided into two groups. Bai Lin’s group was obviously divided into two camps, which would inevitably hinder the completion of the mission.

Bai Lin facepalmed. This was great. It became one carrying three, so the difficulty of the game rose sharply..
