The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 185

"The time they chase us is controlled within five minutes, and the rest time is most likely also five minutes. But there are only ten of them. If we can evade them, that time will also be counted." Qin Wei looked at her wristwatch and said.

Wei Lai glanced at her watch:

"Why do you only have a watch?"

"Because..."

Qin Wei raised her head, looking at a camera, then placed her arms across her chest, revealing the watch on her wrist, and said seriously:

"Sculpting time, natural perfection, traversing light and shadow through time, letting the heavenly times tell you, classics and legends."

The three others: "???"

Li Hanming: "Why do you still have business narration?"

Qin Wei answered truthfully:

"Knowing that I was coming to participate in the show, the brand decided overnight to title sponsor, saying that the show name matched them very well. I also just found out when I was having my makeup done and memorized it several times on the way here, afraid that I would forget."

The brand treats her very well, giving her a lot of face!

Qin Wei stood up:

"Let's go!"

Li Hanming weakly asked:

"Are you sure you want to continue the competition wearing a watch worth over 300,000 yuan?"

Although he could afford this price, he didn't feel it was cheap.

Similarly, Qin Wei felt the same way.

So the two looked towards the nearest camera.

A staff member silently ran over.

"The brand wants you to rest assured wearing it. Also, this is the payment for your advertisement narration."

He presented a card with both hands.

A revive card? An unexpected gain!

This was equivalent to having an extra life!

Qin Wei immediately put away the card and asked the staff member:

"Are there any more ads that need narration? I can do it, I can do it, I can do it!"

The staff member smiled and said:

"The director said that if you want to try, he can pause the time to let you try them one by one."

So there were none.

...

There were only two ways forward on this road across the river. The only intersection so far was the one Qiao Sixiao had taken, and according to her there was nothing there. Qin Wei's group had come from the south, so their only choice was to go north.

"Let's go, we'll go take a look over there first."

Continuing north, everyone patiently spoke with the NPCs they encountered along the way. Although no one told them where the bank was, they did get a key piece of information—

"There's an old tree with red strings hanging all over it at the first intersection ahead. Go there and make a wish, it's very mystical."

With no other options, the four could only head to the wishing tree.

...

As the NPC had said, at the first intersection was an old tree.

There were still people there making wishes and throwing red strings onto the tree.

A six or seven year old girl walked over with a box, stopping in front of Li Hanming:

"Brother, buy a puzzle box!"

A puzzle?

Since the NPC had actively approached them, it must be because they had reached a specified location.

The four were both shocked and delighted, surrounding the girl and saying "We'll buy it!"

"Money."

The girl held out her hand.

The four looked at each other—they hadn't had a chance to spend money the whole way. Their food and drinks were all thanks to Qin Wei's imperial feasts, so no one had realized they still needed money here.

[Staff: Qin Wei goes to throw red strings onto the tree. Throwing 12 strings up with 10 staying on will earn paper money.]

The mission came.

"Why me specifically?"

Qin Wei took the strings but was still puzzled.

[Staff: Because your character setting is wealthy, so you pay.]

Qin Wei: "..."

Fine, she accepted this explanation, but she also looked meaningfully at Li Hanming.

Li Hanming guiltily looked away.

Qin Wei picked up the strings, swung her arm back and flung the strings out. The strings steadily landed on the wishing tree's branches.

Seeing her get off to a good start, Qiao Sixiao relaxed and turned to ask the girl holding the puzzle box:

"Can you give us the puzzle first? We'll start assembling it first, and after we get money later we'll pay you, okay?"

The girl didn't quite dare make the decision herself, so she pointed to the staff member:

"Uncle and auntie said if Qin Wei sister can't complete the task, she has to accept the punishment before getting it."

Accidentally revealing the whole process...

Qiao Sixiao crossed her arms as she looked at the staff, the corners of her mouth turning up.

It seemed their plan had misfired. Qin Wei might find it difficult to continuously throw iron shots, but she definitely had the arm strength to fling strings onto the tree crown. After all the foliage was lush, and anything caught on it wouldn't fall down easily.

With daily training, she could even do handstands—the strength of a top athlete.

And as expected, Qin Wei did not disappoint, not only completing the task but overcompleting it.

The twelve red strings were all flung up by her.

Qin Wei stood under the tree, hands on her hips, and arched an eyebrow at her teammates.

The three unanimously applauded for her.

The little girl very cooperatively handed the puzzle box to Li Hanming.

And the staff also gave Qin Wei an extra reward for overcompleting. After all, the overcompleted portion could also trigger rewards.

"A card."

When Qin Wei walked over, she happened to see it too.

"Counterkill."

She said, and gave the card to Wei Lai. Wei Lai was a bit surprised and didn't know if she should accept it or not for a moment.

"I didn't do anything..."

Wei Lai frankly said.

Qin Wei took her hand and stuffed the card into it:

"If it wasn't for running into you earlier, the two of us would've been eliminated. Don't you remember? You take this first, the rules are written on the card. It can counterkill the Men in Black within three minutes and could also save your life at a critical moment."

Qiao Sixiao had already used one. Qin Wei turned her head to look at her, then took out the revive card.

"I'll give this one to Little Han..."

"You hold onto it first."

Li Hanming didn't accept it and didn't give her a chance to refute either.

"This round, if others get caught they're eliminated. If you're caught, it's game over. Protect your life first."

Qiao Sixiao nodded. As expected, someone was thinking the same as her.

"I'll start on the puzzle."

Li Hanming opened the box. Wei Lai took the initiative to help hold the box to make it convenient for him to assemble directly inside.

[Mission Lock: Li Hanming assembles puzzle, 5 minute countdown starts!]

[299]

[298]

Everyone just wanted to shout out the plant's name—the puzzle even had a countdown!

At this moment, the pedestrians on the street scattered, and the people making wishes under the tree had also left.

Past experience told them the Men in Black were killing their way over again...

...

Although they had guessed it was intentionally arranged by the program team, everyone still felt a sense of when it rains, it pours.

A total of five Men in Black came, fewer than usual.

Qiao Sixiao said to Li Hanming:

"Little Han go under the tree and work on the puzzle, also pay attention yourself."

Then she and Qin Wei and Wei Lai unconsciously exchanged looks with each other. They were responsible for leading the Men in Black away to ensure Li Hanming could complete the puzzle mission—needless to say, they had to have this level of teamwork.

"I'm over here!"

Qin Wei yelled at the incoming Men in Black. They immediately all chased after Qin Wei. Qin Wei turned and fled.

Indeed, in this round, the Men in Black seemed to have an even greater desire to catch Qin Wei whenever they encountered her. She was the first one they went after, while the others were backup options.

It also confirmed for her that this was definitely related to the letter Dr. Xu had written to her.

Qiao Sixiao and Wei Lai also joined in. Anyway, only Li Hanming could complete the puzzle mission, so it was more practical for them to reduce Qin Wei's burden.
