There was still an hour before dinner time.
The trainees were all in the training room.
The staff members of the production crew were either attending meetings or filming on the scene.
Therefore, Lin Shanchu didn’t bump into anyone as she walked downstairs to the first floor.
The director’s office and the training room were facing the opposite direction. So for the time being, no one noticed that Jiang Ziyu had just been thrown from the fourth floor
This situation would have been easier to handle if Jiang Ziyu was discovered while he was in the director’s office considering how much it would cost the show and how willing Jiang Ziyu was to not report to the police.
But now, because of that psychopath Huo Chaosong, things have become complicated.
If Jiang Ziyu were to die like this, things would turn even more complicated.
As Lin Shanchu was thinking of all sorts of ways to deal with the situation, her pace unintentionally quickened.
She could see Jiang Ziyu lying in a pool of blood from a distance.
Lin Shanchu was about to go over, but she noticed that someone was already one step ahead of her.
Lin Shanchu reacted quickly and retreated as she stared forward.
The moment she saw the wheelchair, her eyes widened in shock.
Other than Huo Xunzhou, there was no one else in the training camp who was in a wheelchair.
Lin Shanchu could only watch as Li MO pushed Huo Xunzhou over to Jiang Ziyu’s body.
Why was Huo Xunzhou back all of a sudden?
Li MO squatted on the ground to check Jiang Ziyu’s pulse, then took out his phone to make a call.
He was either calling the police or the doctor.
But Lin Shanchu couldn’t guess who exactly he was calling.
If it were someone else that approached the body, she could make up an excuse and pretend she was there by coincidence.
But the person who appeared here was Huo Xunzhou.
Huo Xunzhou was so bright, it was as if he had ten heads.
She couldn’t even stop him from figuring out what was going on, let alone lie to him that it was a coincidence since he could already tell just by discovering that she was spying on them.
Lin Shanchu noticed that Huo Xunzhou had also taken out his phone to make a call.
Just as Huo Xunzhou brought the phone to his ear, he seemed to have sensed something and looked in Lin Shanchu’s direction.
Lin Shanchu quickly hid.
[Main storyline repair failed.]
The system also happened to finish repairing at this moment.
The sudden robotic-sounding announcement startled Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu could not even be bothered to mock the system anymore, so she just turned around and ran upstairs.
She had to go back and think of a strategy.
However, the system seemed to have malfunctioned and kept repeating the phrase “Main storyline repair failed” over and over again.
“Shut up.”
The system paused for two seconds before it continued repeating: “Main storyline repair failed”.
But the volume was slightly softer than before.
Lin Shanchu didn’t have time to care about it and quickly climbed the stairs to the floor where the training room was located.
The director held a megaphone and shouted at the entrance of each training room, “Everyone, please gather outside!”
The trainees came out of the training room with puzzled faces.
Lin Shanchu immediately took a detour to the washroom.
She washed her face and calmed her breathing before walking back out.
Ran Zhimo happened to see her coming out of the bathroom.
“You were in the bathroom for so long? Could it be that you ate something bad?”
Previously, when Ran Zhimo and Lin Shanchu parted ways, Lin Shanchu had said that he needed to go to the washroom. So Ran Zhimo thought that Lin Shanchu had been in the washroom all this time.
“Constipated, ” Lin Shanchu said calmly.
Upon hearing her response, Ran Zhimo gave Lin Shanchu some genuine advice, “Drink some yogurt and eat some dragon fruit or something. It might help.”
“Is everyone here?” The director stood in front of the line and started counting, “Group members, check if all your teammates are here.”
Lin Shanchu was scanning the crowd for Xia Jinmeng.
Soon, she spotted Xia Jinmeng close by, glancing around at her surroundings just like her.
Xia Jinmeng was also looking for her.
If Lin Shanchu did not show up, it meant that Jiang Ziyu had succeeded.
Xia Jinmeng was searching carefully.
When her gaze slowly landed on Lin Shanchu, her pupils widened.
Why was Lin Shanchu still standing here unscathed?
Didn’t Jiang Ziyu say that everything had been arranged?
How did he still fail?
Lin Shanchu actually escaped the hands of Jiang Ziyu!
If that was the case, wouldn’t Lin Shanchu know that she was in cahoots with Jiang Ziyu?
Lin Shanchu would definitely not let her off easily!
Thinking of this, Xia Jinmeng became anxious and afraid. She did not dare to look up at Lin Shanchu.
Xia Jinmeng was so flustered that she bit her lips. She barely managed to calm herself down and mentally prepare herself.
Xia Jinmeng turned to look at Lin Shanchu again.
She saw Lin Shanchu talking to the person beside her with a smile on her face.
She did not look like a woman who had just escaped the grasp of a man who wanted to violate her.
Does that mean… Lin Shanchu didn’t go to the director’s office at all?
That must be the case.
Otherwise, Lin Shanchu wouldn’t have behaved so calmly when she saw her.
The director just finished counting the number of people present.
Everyone was here.
The director heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he handed the megaphone to the staff member beside him and stepped aside to make a call.
The staff member announced, “The director said, everyone has been working hard today, so he wants to treat all of you to ice cream.”
Lin Shanchu knew that the ice cream was just a cover-up.
The production crew’s goal was to gather everyone together and prevent them from finding out about Jiang Ziyu.
Everyone went to get their ice cream and made their way back to the training room.
The director called them back, “Why are you guys in such a hurry to return to the training room? Let’s sit together and chat for a while to relax. After all, dinner will be served soon.”
After that, the staff even organized some games for the trainees to play together.
With more than forty girls playing together, it was so noisy they all had to shout above the crowd for others to be able to hear them.
Lin Shanchu didn’t join them.
Her mind was in a mess.
This f * cking system was probably about to be completely useless. It was still repeating the same phrase: “Main storyline repair failed”
Yun Wu was nibbling on her ice cream as she squeezed her way by Lin Shanchu’s side, “Shanshan, did you hear an ambulance?”
Lin Shanchu was trying to listen attentively.
However, all she could hear was the annoying voice of the system.
‘If you don’t shut up, I’ll kill Lu Shiyuan on livestream!’
‘l’ne moment sne tnougnt ot tms statement, It took Immediate ettect.
The system finally shut up.
Her mind quieted down and Lin Shanchu managed to faintly hear the sound of the ambulance.
Yun Wu whispered into Lin Shanchu’s ear, “Do you think something happened to the production crew?”
“Huh?”
“Otherwise, why would the director suddenly gather all of us together?” Yun Wu was really smart and she wasn’t wrong with her guess.
Lin Shanchu’s gaze flickered slightly, “The director has always been good to us. Didn’t he give us chocolates before?”
“That’s true,” Yun Wu nodded, “If something really happened, we would have heard sirens.”
There were no police sirens, only the sound of the ambulance.
This meant that Huo Xunzhou didn’t call the police.
The system, which finally returned to normal, just realized what Lin Shanchu had done.
[You stabbed Jiang Ziyu! You can’t stab people!]
