Lunch was delivered at the normal time, and soon the utensils were brought up by the elevator. During the blank period in the script, everyone was on high alert.

At this moment, Ye Xiang no longer insisted on following Yu Chen since he had the cursed high heels. However, he had learned a lesson from Hou Tianbai.

The key... is tonight.

The end of Act 2!

That would be when the second victim appears!

The script goes as follows:

(Scene: The final scene of Act 2.

Time: Midnight.

Location: Zhang Hua's room.

Zhang Hua was awakened by a scream.)

Zhang Hua (immediately jumping out of bed): That... that sounds like... Liu Ying's voice!

(Zhang Hua quickly put on his clothes and hurriedly followed the sound, seeing Lu Ze Nan coming out from the side as well.)

Zhang Hua: Did you hear that sound?

Lu Ze Nan: Of course, I'm not deaf! It sounds like Liu Ying, right?

Zhang Hua: I feel the same!

(The two rushed downstairs together, only to find Liu Haiping already there.)

Zhang Hua: What's going on? Did Miss Liu have an accident? Ah!

(Zhang Hua suddenly saw Liu Ying lying on the floor of the living room, blood flowing from her eyes, her body like a doll, pale as paper.)

End of Act 2

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --

Liu Ying shouldn't have gone to the living room at that time.

But there was obviously a problem. In the middle of the night, why would Liu Ying run to the living room? It made no sense. It should be noted that there was no need to pass through the living room to get to the bathroom from her room.

So, the living room was likely not the first place of death. Could it be that she went to the living room after being killed in her room?

Just now, Yu Chen brought Su Han to find him.

"Zhang Hua, let's gather together tonight. It's too dangerous to sleep alone. It's better for the remaining six of us to gather together! In that case..."

Hou Tianbai's death had a deep impact on Yu Chen. He had the high heels in his hand at the time, but he died before he could even call for help. It seemed that this horror film was not as easy as they had imagined! Moreover, he had already used a finger-breaking once, and Ye Xiang also needed redemption tickets more than him as a supporting role.

After considering it, gathering everyone together would increase their chances of success! If everything went smoothly, it might have a huge impact on the plot!

Su Han also agreed. He originally wanted to avoid it as much as possible, but thinking about it carefully, he would eventually be the next to die as the plot developed. The current redemption tickets were simply not enough. In that case, it was better to take the initiative and increase his redemption tickets. Of course, it was not without danger, but it was better than waiting passively for death!

Ye Xiang had the same idea. Previously, he only had three one-time consumable talismans, which had limited effects. But now, things were different. With the high heels in hand and the current redemption tickets, he could fight to the death!

So, he agreed!

Now... it was time to wait!

As time passed, night fell.

According to the plan, two people would take turns keeping watch while the others slept. After all, if they didn't sleep, where would they find the energy to deal with what was to come? And once something happened, the person on watch would immediately wake the others up.

After drawing lots, Yu Chen and Ye Xiang were chosen to keep watch.

Dinner was delivered to the basement as usual.

According to the original script, the last person to see Liu Ying alive was Yu Chen, and that was around 10:20.

So, everyone gathered in the living room during this time period.

"Lu Ze Nan" Su Han and Wu Jun slept on the floor, while Liu Ying and Zhao Xiaoya slept on the sofa. Although Liu Ying didn't keep watch, she couldn't possibly fall asleep. Originally, she didn't want to come to the living room, but since everyone gathered there, could she dare to stay alone in her room?

Time passed second by second.

At this moment, except for Yu Chen, Ye Xiang, and Liu Ying, everyone else fell asleep. After all, no one had slept well last night.

Of course, it goes without saying that by doing this, their redemption tickets were continuously deducted. Ye Xiang's redemption tickets had already decreased from 194 to 164. However, this was a valuable investment. Once they saved Liu Ying, the redemption tickets they would receive in return would be several times more!

Ye Xiang heard from Fang Leng that the most direct and feasible way to increase redemption tickets was to save someone who was originally destined to die! And the current situation was exactly like that! Of course, if he survived a deadly situation, it would also increase his redemption tickets (of course, deducting redemption tickets to escape from the place of death didn't count).

When the time reached 11 o'clock...

The lights in the living room suddenly went out!Liu Ying was so scared that she almost screamed and threw herself into Yu Chen's arms! In her eyes, this man, who was the protagonist, naturally gave her the greatest sense of security!

However, Yu Chen remained calm. Power outages were very common in horror movies, and he had acted in six horror films. How could he be scared by something like this?

The others seemed to be sleeping soundly as well. It seemed that they trusted Yu Chen and Ye Xiang completely.

"Why is there a power outage?" Yu Chen turned to Ye Xiang and said, "Zhang Hua, can you go and check? Maybe a fuse blew?"

"Forget it," Ye Xiang shook his head, "It's already nighttime. Let's deal with it tomorrow morning."

Joking aside, only someone with a brain malfunction would go alone in this situation. Although Ye Xiang acted in horror movies, he was not like those characters in horror movies who always said, "Wait for me, I'll be right back," and raised death flags early on.

Yu Chen shook his head and said, "No, maybe it's not a normal power outage."

He crouched down and shook Su Han, who was sleeping under a blanket with a quilt, saying, "Lu Ze Nan, Lu Ze Nan? Wake up!"

However, there was no response for a long time. How could this guy sleep so soundly?

Yu Chen helped him turn over and said, "Hey, you..."

But the next moment, Yu Chen was furious!

This was not Su Han at all. There was only a pillow inside the blanket!

He quickly rushed to the other side and pulled back the blanket, but the person inside was no longer Wu Jun. It had also turned into a cushion!

Ye Xiang also looked at the sofa and saw that Zhao Xiaoya, who was sleeping on it, had also turned into a porcelain object!

Only Liu Ying was still lying on the sofa!

Ye Xiang and Yu Chen immediately rushed to Liu Ying's side! At the same time, their vigilant eyes scanned the surroundings!

Both of them had their hands in their pockets, holding high heels and a severed finger!

"What... what's going on... where did they go?" Liu Ying was so scared that she was about to cry.

Both of them sandwiched Liu Ying, and their nervousness reached its peak.

"Don't be afraid, Miss Liu!" Ye Xiang tightly held her arm with his other hand!

"I will protect you!"

Time passed second by second. However, unexpectedly, everything became unusually calm. In the darkness, the three of them stopped talking and almost held their breath.

In this large living room, it became extremely terrifying in the pitch-black darkness!

Thirty minutes passed in the blink of an eye. Yu Chen and Ye Xiang's nerves remained tense, but Liu Ying breathed a sigh of relief. She probably felt protected by the protagonist's presence. Although she had learned from the rules that the protagonist was not absolute and could die early, as a homebody, she always felt that the protagonist was a symbol of invincibility. So she leaned against Yu Chen and felt a strong sense of security.

"I... where did they go?" Liu Ying couldn't bear the silence anymore and spoke softly.

Yu Chen looked around cautiously and said, "I don't know... it feels so strange. Several living people turned into pillows and cushions in just a short power outage!"

"Yeah," Ye Xiang agreed, "Even magicians can't be that powerful. This house is too eerie!"

Liu Ying anxiously grabbed the sofa and pleaded, "Please, I don't want to die... I'm still young, I really don't want to die..."

"We will do our best to protect you." Ye Xiang held her hand tightly, afraid that she would disappear from his side and turn into a pillow in the next moment!

At this moment, he truly hated the limitations of the cursed object. It was useless unless he was in front of a camera. Using it for ten seconds was equivalent to wasting the payment for a horror movie.

As for the others, could they all be dead? Ye Xiang felt it was impossible. Even if they died, it wouldn't be possible for so many people to die at once, right? The difficulty level of "Horror Bus" should be similar to this horror movie! At that time, three people didn't die all at once!

And another twenty minutes passed. The time was approaching midnight.

Liu Ying looked at the time on her phone and became even more terrified as it approached midnight. Only she knew how she died. Judging from her expression, her time of death was probably at midnight!

At this moment, Yu Chen truly felt the importance of having a spiritual medium. If Bai Yushuo were here, they wouldn't be so passive.

After an unknown amount of time passed, Ye Xiang began to feel a bit dazed. Suddenly, he heard a voice.

"What's going on? Where are you guys?"

That voice... it was Su Han!

Ye Xiang looked up and saw Su Han's figure standing not far away!

"Are you okay?" Yu Chen immediately ran over. He wanted to know what was going on.

At that moment, Ye Xiang suddenly realized something and shouted, "No! That's not Lu Ze Nan!"However, it was too late. The shadow abruptly pulled Yu Chen into the darkness! Yu Chen didn't even have time to scream!

Ye Xiang, holding Liu Ying's hand, quickly vaulted over the sofa and rushed into another corridor on the side! He could only use the high heels for ten seconds, any longer, and his death redemption ticket would turn negative! So, he couldn't take them out just yet!

He plunged deep into the corridor, constantly changing directions, while also keeping an eye on the time.

He decided to take out the high heels at the crucial moment of midnight! He bypassed another corridor and rushed into another staircase in the villa. As he kept running up the stairs, Ye Xiang became increasingly nervous.

He knew that if he didn't take out the high heels in time, he would meet the same fate as Hou Tianbai!
