In the small dark room, the live broadcast screens showing Director Wang and the PDs doing tasks all went black, along with the lights in the room.
Everyoneâs joy of spectating was instantly frozen.
Zhu Xiuâan: âWhat kind of quality is this? How can there be a power outage~â
Fang Zhuyue: âExactly, just when it was getting exciting!â
Guan Fengyan, the most perceptive, guessed: âCould the production team be up to somethingâŠâ
Sheng Yaoyao: âQuite possible!â
Qin Yutian spoke weakly: âNo way, didnât the production team say that this episode, we get to be directors?â
This sudden power outage left everyone bewildered.
Ji Xizhi, who was writing in a notebook, was the most affected, but she remained the calmest among the guests.
She tore the pages from her notebook in the dark, folded them into several parts, and then responded to Qin Yutianâs comment.
âThe production team only said we would be directors; they didnât say for how long.â
That statement was an enlightenment to everyone.
Yes, the production team said they could be directors this episode, butâŠ
They didnât say how long! Being a director for a minute or a day still counts, and the final interpretation is entirely up to the production team.
[I knew the production team couldnât be this kind-hearted, hahaha, letâs all fight! I love watching this~]
[Ji Xizhiâs tone, did she already figure it outâŠ]
[This isnât hard to guess. Earlier, the production team was two-faced: letting Ji Xizhi take away Director Wang while letting Director Wang make things difficult for Ji Xizhi. You can see the production team is like a sesame seed bun~]
Ji Xizhi openly exposed the little schemes of the production team, and they no longer hid it.
A mechanical voice came directly from above the small dark room.
âDear guests, your director experience card has expired. You need to complete the task of clearing the âLife Valueâ of six âguestsâ in the park to gain the right to continue watching.â
From the start, Guan Fengyan seriously listened to the rules set by the production team. He asked, âClear? Didnât the earlier rules state that Life Value cannot be seized? So how can we clear someone elseâs Life Value?â
The mechanical voice had already prepared an answer for Guan Fengyanâs question and continued:
âIndeed, Life Value is transferred voluntarily by the person. If you cannot clear the âguestsâ Life Value, they will reverse grab the directorâs rights, and you will permanently lose the right to be a director in this show.â
Lose the right to be a director?
She wasnât planning on being a director anyway.
Ji Xizhi was about to speak, âThen I wonât beâŠâ
Even before she could finish her sentence, Zhu Xiuâan jumped up and slammed the table first.
âCanât do it? Thatâs like rubbing all our six faces in the dirt! Let me tell you, a warrior can be killed but not humiliated. If we donât clear all the guestsâ Life Values today, where is the dignity of me, Uncle Yan, Sister Yaoyao, Sister Yue, Brother Tian, and Sister Ji?!â
Guan Fengyan, Sheng Yaoyao, Fang Zhuyue, Qin Yutian, Ji Xizhi, who were called out for no reason: â?â No, no, we donât need such dignity!
[Ji Xizhi almost fed the right answer to a silly dog, yet he still spat it out~]
[Hilarious, if youâre going to talk big, just talk big, donât be timid. Now suddenly youâre calling out brother, sister, and uncle, hahaha~]
[Zhu Xiuâan: Even if itâs a pitfall, we all have to step into it together, thatâs team spirit!]
[No disturbance, our team is disbanding here!]
After Zhu Xiuâan passionately shouted, none of the others followed suit or cooperated.
âWhereâs the applause? Whereâs the cheers?â
Fang Zhuyue: âDo you want me to clap you with my palm?â
Zhu Xiuâan: ââŠâŠâ Aggrieved!
The production team was well aware of Ji Xizhiâs tactics. Previously, in Escape Room, Ji Xizhi mainly stuck to the strategy that as long as she didnât escape, there would be no task. During this recording, they were already prepared for her stance. Whether what Ji Xizhi said would be taken into account, they had one goal: to get Ji Xizhi into the park to complete the tasks anyway.
Who knew that even before Ji Xizhi could speak, Zhu Xiuâan boldly came forward to represent the group.
The production team smoothly went along with it, âAlright, very spirited!!! Off to do the tasks you go!â
Then, without further ado with Ji Xizhi and others, they waved their hand and arranged for people in black to blindfold all six and directly took them into the amusement park to do tasks.
This time the tasks designed by the production team were individual battles. To prevent Ji Xizhi from disrupting everyone, the team used a tour vehicle to drop the six of them at different locations within the amusement park.
The production team didnât specify the order of getting off the vehicle; each person alighted at a different location as long as they were separated.
Even though Ji Xizhi was sitting at the entrance of the tour vehicle, she was the last to get off.
Only after the other five had alighted did she slowly get off the vehicle.
Ji Xizhiâs drop-off point was near the haunted house, not because the production team thought Ji Xizhi would be scared, but because the haunted house was the furthest from everyone elseâs location.
September Amusement Park is currently the largest amusement park in the country, just recently completed, and still in the testing phase. Some signs and maps in the park have not been fully updated, making it easy for visitors to lose direction inside.
Ji Xizhi and the others entered blindfolded on a tour vehicle, unfamiliar with the routes. Forget about clearing Director Wang and the PDsâ Life Values, even finding them wasnât an easy task.
Once Ji Xizhi reached the final destination, all the guestsâ positions were settled.
An announcement came through the earphones, and all six simultaneously removed their blindfolds.
Next, the staff didnât wait for the six people to react, and simultaneously put on the Life Value watches for them.
Itâs an entrance package, exactly the same as the ones Director Wang and the PDs have, except the numbers are different.
Director Wang and the PDs have a Life Value number of 100, while Ji Xizhiâs watch has a missing zero, leaving only 10.
âFriendly reminder: After entering the park, everyoneâs Life Value will decrease. You must complete the task before your Life Value runs out. Otherwise, itâs considered a task failure, and youâll have to accept punishment and re-record.â
[Only 10 Life Value? Are you kidding me? Stingy!]
[The whole amusement park is so big with so much foot traffic. Finding Director Wang and the PDs inside is difficult enough, let alone trying to persuade them to voluntarily transfer their Life Value. This is just too hard!]
[Letâs just give up. Thereâs no need to chase it; Ji Xizhi and the others are bound to lose. Better to announce their death date right now!]
The show crew and the fans in the chat had the same thought.
They set such a difficult task, essentially planning for Ji Xizhi and the others to fail.
The idea of swapping guest and director roles was just a gimmick. This episode of âLife Experienceâ canât possibly let Director Wang and a few PDs film the entire process; ultimately, it has to return to the normal storyline.
Which means a new storyline after Ji Xizhi and the others fail the task, which the planners had long prepared for, now just waiting for Ji Xizhi and the othersâ Life Value to be exhausted.
The planners are calculating task failure times in the live broadcast backend.
At the live broadcast site, after the show crew announced the task, Ji Xizhi and the other five people were not anxious at all.
Even Zhu Xiuâan, who usually talks the most, wasnât in a hurry to curse the show crew but rather calmly looked up at his location.
Thenâ
Pulled out a palm-sized folded square piece of paper from his palm and opened it.
Show crew: â?â What is this?
Along with Zhu Xiuâan, Guan Fengyan, Sheng Yaoyao, Fang Zhuyue, and Qin Yutian also took out small pieces of paper, one for each person.
When it came to Ji Xizhi, she didnât pull out a piece of paper but a small torn notebook.
The very one fans were screaming to see before the power outage in the small dark studio.
At the time, everyone was watching the fun with Director Wang and the PDs, while Ji Xizhi was the only one writing furiously with her head down.
Now it wasâŠ
Papers published?
The show crew backend planners were baffled looking at this situation.
Until Ji Xizhi opened the small notebook, and its contents were clearly shown in the live broadcast room.
Thatâs when everyone saw the contents clearly.
No papers whatsoever on the notebook; instead, it contained a small, detailed drawing.
Not only did Ji Xizhi have this drawing, but she also drew one for each of the other five people. Like copy-paste, all drawings were identical.
Fans in the live broadcast were stunned.
[Whatâs this? An encrypted paper?]
[Why does it look like a map? Umm, kind of looks like⊠a map!]
[Hang on, donât be too quick to leave. I zoomed in on a screenshot, and it really looks like it! I happened to try September Amusement Park a few days ago. Her drawing really looks like a mapâŠ]
The fans continued guessing blindly in the live broadcast room.
But the show crew planners instantly recognized that what the six people had was indeed the map of September Amusement Park.
The park officials hadnât even drawn it yet!
Even the map the show crew had for this recording was just a rough version.
And the guests were holding a detailed hand-drawn map?
The entire planning crew was about to faint, âInvestigate! Find out, who leaked the map?â
After thorough checks, the camera crew finally provided a confirmed answer.
No one leaked it, since the official version of the map hasnât even reached the park staff yet.
These six maps were drawn by Ji Xizhi herself.
She was secretly drawing the map under the pretense of writing a paper in the small dark studio.
At that time, all staffâs attention was on the other people; Ji Xizhi was entirely out of their focus.
Everyone assumed Ji Xizhi was busy studying.
Unexpectedly, she was busy fixing bugs!
The planners were furious with regret, their eyes turning red.
Especially as Ji Xizhi pointed at the small map in her hand and muttered self-talk in the live broadcast room.
âThis is my location, while Director Wang is here, PD brother is there, second brother isâŠâ
She actually mapped out Director Wang and the various PDsâ last known positions on the map?
