Awakening the Daily Intelligence System-Chapter 852 - 367 Discussing Heroes over Wine_2

In a dormitory, Detective L, upon returning, used his keen intuition to determine that the production team would definitely come again, and the interval wouldn’t be too long. He already didn’t sleep well, and being woken soon after falling asleep would only make him more exhausted. So, on his second return to the dorm, he voluntarily gave Kira Moon the opportunity to sleep.

However, Kira Moon didn’t appreciate the gesture to rest and continued to focus intently on watching the escape videos of other contestants. Besides Lin Mo and elementary student Kudo’s performances, he roughly browsed through the escape processes of Bao Zheng and Sherlock Holmes. This observation made the somewhat self-satisfied Kira Moon realize that the strength of other contestants far exceeded his expectations. If he wanted to win the championship in this program, it was definitely not as simple as he initially thought.

Nonetheless, Kira Moon wasn’t deterred by the difficulties; on the contrary, it stirred an even stronger sense of competitiveness in him. Detective L shrugged helplessly as he noticed the room temperature rising and said, "Looks like tonight, no one should expect a good night’s sleep. Moon, what do you think the purpose of the production team doing this is?"

Kira Moon pondered for a while and replied, "Maybe they’re trying to make us let down our guard, making it easier for them to do something. Didn’t you hear the noise outside? Some contestants are already protesting. Their mindsets have already changed, and if the production team wants to eliminate them, it would certainly be easier than without these disturbances."

Detective L suddenly asked, "Then which group of contestants do you think the production team wants to eliminate?"

Kira Moon, like the previous two times, had already opened the room window and said as he walked, "Who knows, maybe it’s random. Whichever group is least alert is the most likely to be eliminated."

Hearing the word "random," Detective L understood deep down that although Kira Moon had acknowledged the strength of other contestants, his inherent arrogance hadn’t changed. With his intelligence, if he thought seriously, it was impossible not to realize that the production team’s target was likely specific. Detective L noticed on the way back from the dining hall to the dorm that there was a mysterious figure secretly observing Lin Mo, and during the previous two times of distributing cold drinks, the host Bingbing had always handed the cold drinks to Lin Mo first. Although this might contain an element of provocation, he speculated that the target the production team wanted to eliminate tonight was very likely Lin Mo. As for the "random elimination" explanation, Detective L thought, unless the brains behind Perfect Escape are a bunch of idiots, they would definitely not choose this method.

About 5 minutes later, most contestants had opened their windows and stood in the corridor. Soon, Bingbing appeared with the staff as she did the previous two times. She was still wearing the same outfit, bringing cold drinks, mung bean soup, and even some warm porridge.

"I’m really sorry, truly very sorry for disturbing your rest again." Bingbing apologized as she walked, also keeping an eye on the number of contestants. After ensuring all contestants were present, she stood in the same position as before, once again stating apologetically, "I’m really sorry, I just received another notification, the air conditioning is having some issues. Please, all contestants, open the windows for ventilation, temporarily leave the room and close the door; please cooperate. These are cold drinks, mung bean soup, and some warm porridge we’ve prepared, have some if you’re hungry."

Bingbing’s face was full of guilt, continuously bowing and apologizing, looking extremely sincere. If not for the previous two suspicious air conditioning failures, just seeing this, it indeed seemed legitimate. But the contestants already had prior experiences and naturally wouldn’t be deceived by her superficial attitude. Some contestants began discussing quietly whether to collectively protest to the production team, asking them to stop these meaningless actions.

Meanwhile, in the live streaming room on the internet, viewers who stayed in front of the screen saw Bingbing’s sincere demeanor and the other contestants’ expressions of despair, couldn’t help but tease.

"Oh my, it’s really ’triple sunshine,’ the production team played this trick well."

"Third time, this really is ’third time’s a charm’!"

"Bingbing: Hey, I’m leaving, hey, I’m back, hey, I’m leaving again, hit me you fool. (dog head.jpg)"

"Why can we only send bullet comments, but you can send videos? Unfair!"

"Fooling contestants three times in the dead of night, isn’t this too much?"

"How could this be called fooling? It’s clearly planned and premeditated testing. Something must happen afterward, we just can’t guess it yet."

"Pity the contestants, I also signed up for this program earlier, but now I think, luckily, I wasn’t selected."

"I laughed to death, there’s not even a 500,000 prize, even if selected it’s useless."

"Haven’t you guys noticed? Lin Mo not only isn’t irritable, but seems to be getting more excited, this isn’t like his usual demeanor."

"Nonsense, if Bingbing treated me this well, not to mention being woken up, I’d even be willing to stand in the corridor all night."

"Let me tell you the truth, the first two times the production team aimed to make the contestants let their guard down; this time’s the real key, certainly full of dangers!"

"Stop talking nonsense, if I were a contestant, I’d rather be eliminated than be tormented like this!"

The bullet comments from the viewers kept rolling, with various comments and speculations appearing in an endless stream.

In the hallway on the 3rd floor of the contestant dormitory of Perfect Escape, there were still 19 groups of contestants who hadn’t been eliminated, totaling 36 people. After a few minutes of discussion, 16 contestants had reached a consensus and decided to protest to the production team.

A contestant representative, standing about 180 cm tall, stepped out, full of hostility, glaring fiercely at host Bingbing, trying to intimidate her with his momentum. Of course, he wasn’t really going to get physical, but in this hallway, none of the contestants were easy to deal with, suppressing Bingbing with their aura was still doable. Seeing this, Bingbing couldn’t help but feel a little scared. After all, she was just a host and hadn’t experienced such a scene.

"Yeah, I also think the production team owes us a reasonable explanation. These continuous air conditioning failures, isn’t it a bit too much bullying? Is the production team’s air conditioning made of paper?" Another contestant stepped out, also glaring unfriendly at Bingbing.

Seeing this situation, the justice-filled John Military Doctor Hua wanted to step forward to alleviate the tense atmosphere for Bingbing, but Sherlock Holmes stopped him. Gongsun Ce also whispered in his ear, "Mr. Hua, they don’t have the guts to actually get physical. Besides, letting them protest a bit can be beneficial for us." Upon hearing this, Military Doctor Hua refrained and stood aside without speaking further.

Lin Mo watched the scene with interest, wanting to see how the Perfect Escape production team would respond to the situation. With these two contestants leading the protest, more and more contestants began to express their dissatisfaction.

"Host, please tell us the truth. If it’s a test by the production team, we are willing to accept it, but at least let us understand what’s happening." "That’s right, being kept in the dark like this, we feel like we’re being toyed with!" "Although we’re contestants, we also have the freedom to protect our basic rights!" "Protest! We want an explanation!"

More contestants joined the protest, and the seven or eight staff members clearly found it difficult to cope. They hurriedly protected Bingbing in the middle, trying their best to distance her from the contestants.
