Enemies Often Cross Paths

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The second round of the draw began.

This time, Li Teng, Gao Fei, and the two other men drew lots to determine the order of getting off the bus.

They were to determine who would get off at the first station, second station, third station, and the fourth station.

After the men drew lots to determine the order of getting off the bus, the women would choose which station they would get off at.

Because the order in which men got off was not revealed, the women's choices would also be random.

The one who ended up with the ghost would definitely face a grim outcome.

The men pulled rank to determine who would draw first. For those with the same rank, it was decided by the throw of dice. The entire process was very orderly.

Li Teng drew the lot where he would get off at the first station.

If the ghost lot ended up with one of the other three men, he would be safe.

But if the ghost lot was in the hands of the four women and that woman chose to get off at the first station, he would have no choice but to get off with the ghost and meet the ghost on a narrow road at the bus station.

He would definitely meet his doom if he were to fight a ghost.

After the men finished the second round of the draw, it was the women's turn to choose which station to get off.

For the women, if the ghost lot was with any of them, they would all be safe.

But if the ghost lot was in the hands of a man, and if they chose carelessly, they would most likely get off with the ghost.

They were well aware of the consequences.

"Who is the ghost? I'm scared." The white-collar female looked at the four men, trying to see if she could get a clue from their facial expressions.

"It's me, let's get off the bus together." The spectacled man laughed.

"Get lost!" The white-collar female rolled her eyes.

The four women's order was as followed— the fierce old lady, the woman in the sunglasses, the white-collar woman, and the teenage girl.

Following the director's announcement, the fierce old lady had the highest priority and would be the first to choose.

Because of her rank, she also had the longest selection time. She had up to six minutes to make her decision.

During this period, she could talk to everyone before making her choice. Of course, the others could choose to ignore her.

Once the fierce old lady made her choice, the other women were unable to choose that particular stop. They could only choose from the remaining stops.

This process was different from the men's. Finally, the fierce old lady must publicly state which stop she chose to get off.

The expressions of everyone present were a little confused. The final round of selection was the most critical.

It was a matter of life and death for everyone.

In any case, one of the eight people must die in order to complete this scene.

If you were the one with the ghost, you would be in big trouble.

The fierce old lady did not immediately make a choice. Instead, she made a move that surprised everyone.

She removed the cover of her bamboo stick and smacked the stick on the table. She then pushed it to the middle of the table, revealing the words on it.

There were six words on it—You are acting as the ghost.

Everyone gasped.

They really did not expect that the fierce old lady would be so brave to willingly expose her identity!

"Well, there's no need for the rest to perform all sorts of exaggerated performances. You three are safe." The fierce old woman said to the woman in the sunglasses, white-collar female, and the teenage girl.

The woman in the sunglasses and the other two patted their chests, completely relieved.

"It's hard to say. Maybe after the ghost gets off the bus, it won't kill the companion who got off together with it. Instead, it will use its superpowers to quickly dash ahead and wait for you all at the next stop, killing two at the same time." The spectacled man chuckled.

Admittedly, he must have a certain level of intelligence to consider this possibility.

"Get lost!" The woman in the sunglasses and the other two women barked in unison.

"Ah… I'm just being kind…" The spectacled man had an aggrieved expression on his face.

"Four of you, please show your lots so that I can decide who to get off with." The fierce old lady looked at the four men.

The four men were a little stupefied. After a while, the pretty boy reacted first. He quickly took out his two bamboo sticks and placed them on the table.

On his two sticks were, You are a photographer and Get off at the fourth stop.

"Well, very good! The fourth stop is out. What about the three of you?" The fierce old lady looked at the spectacled man, Gao Fei, and Li Teng.

Gao Fei and the spectacled man looked at each other, wondering what the fierce old lady was up to.

"I'll be straightforward," said the fierce old lady.

The fierce old lady looked at the three women and said, "You three ladies are safe. I won't kill any of you, and I won't be so bored as to run to another stop to kill two people."

"Thanks." The three women each expressed their gratitude to the fierce old lady.

"Three among you are safe as well." The fierce old lady looked at the four men again. "I came here just for someone. More accurately, to kill this person!"

The fierce old lady said while looking at Li Teng. Her eyes were ferocious and sinister.

The woman in the sunglasses glanced at the fierce old lady, and then at Li Teng, with a look of sudden realization.

Li Teng sighed.

Enemies often end up crossing each other's paths!

After the last filming, the woman in the sunglasses had reminded Li Teng to develop and improve his level as soon as possible so that he could accumulate enough points to live a better life.

Guo Zhipeng's mother had used her power to track them down! As she had been there half a year earlier than Guo Zhipeng, her level was higher by one-tier. Now, she wanted to avenge her son.

Li Teng vaguely remembered that Guo Zhipeng's mother operated a casino in the real world and was a ruthless person.

Mrs. Guo had taken advantage of her three chances to select the roles and managed to get the ghost from among the eight!

Now, she only needed to figure out where Li Teng was getting off to follow him. After that, she would use her ghost status to exchange points for a ghostly superpower and knock out Li Teng easily!

This film scene was different from the previous one.

Earlier, when Guo Zhipeng had crashed onto Li Teng, Guo Zhipeng, who had been holding onto the steering wheel, had not had death immunity.

Thus, Li Teng had cleverly used the bar chair to counterattack.

Unfortunately, for this scene, it was not possible to kill a ghost. Therefore, the chances for Li Teng to counterattack and kill her were close to zero.

There was no possibility of a comeback when a human fought against a ghost, or when an ordinary extra with no accumulated points fought a character actor, who was two levels higher, with a large number of points!

How could one be so unlucky?

"Hahaha… This is so funny! Is there such a thing? The best-laid plans of men often go awry! Man proposes, God disposes. The good will be rewarded and the wicked punished." The spectacled man couldn't help laughing after he understood all that was happening.

In the first scene, he had made a mistake in following Guo Zhipeng, who had ended up dying.

Li Teng was now the most popular person in this crew. Everyone else listened to him as he had used devious methods to fool and manipulate them.

The spectacled man instead was being ostracized by them.

Unexpectedly, his luck had turned for the better now that Guo Zhipeng's mother had arrived!

She was even more powerful than Guo Zhipeng!

"What do your lots say?" Mrs. Guo asked the spectacled man.

"Yes, yes! These are my lots!" The spectacled man quickly took out his two bamboo sticks from the cover and placed them on the table.

His two lots displayed, You are a supporting actor and Get off at the second stop.

"Okay, another one is ruled out. I won't choose the second and fourth stops. Only the first and third stops are now left." Mrs. Guo looked at Gao Fei.

As long as Gao Fei revealed his lots, Mrs. Guo could infer which station Li Teng would be getting off at.
