Liu Ying was killed at midnight!

Now, it's very close to that time!

He couldn't use the high heels yet because the current redemption ticket can only be used once. If he couldn't save Liu Ying in time, the previous redemption ticket would be wasted! Only by saving Liu Ying at a critical moment, even if it means delaying her time of death, can he greatly increase his redemption ticket!

As the second person to die after Wu Jun, Liu Ying seemed like a minor supporting character, but precisely because of that, these types of characters are more likely to die than the protagonist! The protagonist has the so-called protagonist's luck or halo, even if it's the second male lead or second female lead, they have a higher chance of survival when facing death compared to ordinary people. Therefore, the more minor the supporting role, the harder it is to save them! Once saved, the reward from the redemption ticket will naturally be high!

As long as he has enough redemption tickets, he can use the high heels multiple times! In that case, Ye Xiang's chances of survival will greatly increase! You should know that the character he plays, Zhang Hua, is obviously a minor character who will definitely die before the protagonist! Even if he can survive until the last scene, he will definitely face the final life and death crisis together with the protagonist again! So, being able to use the high heels only once and for only ten seconds is definitely not enough!

The most important thing is, if Liu Ying still dies around midnight, he won't get any redemption tickets!

After dragging it until midnight... the third act begins! At that time, the scriptless state caused by Hou Tianbai's death due to the butterfly effect will also be resolved! The ghosts must act according to the requirements of the script!

After considering everything, Ye Xiang's current task naturally becomes very simple... to delay time and drag it past midnight, entering the third act! Once the third act begins, the script will be reorganized! And according to what the experienced actors told him, the butterfly effect of changing the script will generally weaken to the lowest level after the script is reorganized, returning to the original plotline!

After rushing to the second floor, Ye Xiang tightly held Liu Ying's hand and kept looking at the time on his phone.

11:58!

The time on the phone may not be accurate, but it should be close enough. Just hold on for a little longer!

At the moment, Ye Xiang couldn't use the high heels! The ten seconds must be used at the last moment! According to his pre-planned calculation, the current redemption tickets are enough!

Ye Xiang led Liu Ying in circles, running back to their original position from one side, and during this process, nothing happened. The only thing he needs to do now is to delay time! The second floor is slightly larger than the first floor. Of course, he also knows that without the high heels, he is just an ordinary mortal! So his hand has been in his pocket, ready to take out the high heels at any time!

He knows that he absolutely cannot stop now!

However, at this moment, he feels like every minute is passing too slowly. He doesn't know how many laps he has run, and even Ye Xiang himself feels like he's doing something stupid. There is still some time difference from midnight!

Only by saving Liu Ying and entering the third act can he have a chance!

Time is getting closer and closer!

Sweat beads continuously form on Ye Xiang's forehead, and he becomes increasingly nervous.

At this moment, he finally took out the high heels!

He can't continue to delay! There may be a certain time difference between the time on the phone and the script! In such a close time, if he doesn't take out the high heels, he will be the one who dies!

This is Ye Xiang's idea!

Ten seconds... it decides everything!

At the same time, he pulled Liu Ying and rushed into a room!

Although it seems to restrict their range of movement, the places where ghosts can disappear have also decreased!

After entering the room, he and Liu Ying crouched at the door, holding the high heels tightly in their hands!

At this moment, because it was dark, he couldn't see clearly. After taking out the high heels, the original red color became even more vibrant, like the color of real blood!

However, the ten seconds will soon pass. Every time a cursed item is used, the script will count down in his mind to let the actor know the time. Ten seconds is the critical value. If it exceeds ten seconds, it will deduct twice the redemption tickets!

The time on the phone now is 11:59!

At the moment of the tenth second, Ye Xiang could only reluctantly put the high heels back into his pocket! He now only has 14 redemption tickets left! And he can only use the high heels for the second time after thirty minutes!

Quick... time...

Time...

Just at this moment, the doorknob in front of him suddenly turned!

Liu Ying was scared pale! A puddle of liquid immediately started to spill from under her, a direct result of her fear!

I'm going to die... I'm doomed to die here!

However...

Ye Xiang didn't give up!

Without hesitation, he rushed up and took out a soul-binding talisman, sticking it on the doorknob! The rotation of the doorknob immediately stopped! The talisman immediately burned fiercely!

Ye Xiang also looked down at his phone.

After the talisman burned out, the time on the phone finally reached midnight!

Suddenly, Ye Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.

The second act ends! Entering the third act!

The redemption tickets skyrocketed at this moment! Just now, because he used the soul-binding talisman, 14 minus 150 became -136 redemption tickets, but in an instant, he increased by 600 redemption tickets! The total number of redemption tickets now becomes 464!600 redemption tickets, equivalent to the protagonist's pay in a low-difficulty horror film! 464 redemption tickets, even more so, mean that he can use the cursed high heels three times! Of course, there must be a thirty-minute interval between each use!

Ye Xiang lay on the ground, letting out a huge sigh of relief. Even Liu Ying couldn't believe that she had actually survived!

As long as the script was not altered after being reassembled, from now until daylight, Ye Xiang would be in a safe period. He helped Liu Ying up and said his lines, "It's okay now, it's okay."

Then, he reached out and opened the door handle.

Outside the door... there was no one.

Stepping outside, the outside was suddenly brightly lit. Su Han, Wu Jun, and Zhao Xiaoya all gathered around.

"Are you guys okay?" Su Han looked at the unharmed Ye Xiang and the pale-faced Liu Ying, admiring this new actor. He was really amazing! He actually survived!

Ye Xiang was indeed lucky. If he hadn't obtained the soul-summoning charm from "Horror Bus", he might not have survived the final moment. However, obtaining over 400 redemption tickets was worth it! For the next two days, he had a high chance of survival!

"Are you guys okay?"

At this moment, Yu Chen came running from the other side of the corridor.

In that dangerous moment, he quickly took out the severed finger, which saved him from harm. Of course, the cost was high. As the protagonist, his pay was higher than Ye Xiang's, and he had used it twice within a day! His current total number of redemption tickets was not even enough to use the severed finger again!

No... he couldn't use any cursed items anymore!

In other words, if Yu Chen couldn't increase his redemption tickets in the next two days, he would either be killed by a ghost or use a cursed item, causing his redemption tickets to become negative and return to the cinema!

Of course, at the moment, he had no better choices. He could only take one step at a time. After all, with his experience from six horror films, he had been through this before. If all else fails, he could rent out his cursed items to other actors in exchange for redemption tickets. After all, he had two cursed items.

That's right, besides Fang Leng, Yu Chen also had two cursed items.

One of them was naturally the severed finger. The other was a bell. The acquisition of the bell was purely coincidental. At the time, he didn't consider it a cursed item in the horror film. It was only after accidentally touching it that he realized it was a hidden weapon. Therefore, it was his trump card.

However, this strategy might not necessarily work. Because cursed items also required redemption tickets to activate, and both Su Han and Ye Xiang had cursed items, while the new actors didn't have many redemption tickets to begin with.

Yu Chen was frustrated, but for now, he could only focus on playing his role.

"It's okay now." Ye Xiang let out a sigh of relief and said, "But, it seems... this place is really strange."

"We woke up and found ourselves in our own beds," Su Han was quite astonished at this point, "What on earth is going on?"

"I've had enough!" Wu Jun roared with his head in his hands, "This place is not normal at all! I want to get out! I must get out!"

Then, Wu Jun rushed to the front door, desperately using various tools to destroy it. Of course, this was definitely useless. No one bothered to stop him, after all, if he could really open the door, everyone would be eager to get out. But everyone knew that this was impossible.

That night, although many people suffered from insomnia, in the end, everyone fell asleep in the living room. After all, according to the script, it was safe during sleep.

When he woke up again, Ye Xiang found that someone had already gotten up. Only Wu Jun, Liu Ying, and Su Han were still asleep. Looking at the clock on the wall, it was just six o'clock. Had Wu Jun finally fallen asleep after spending hours trying to break down the door last night?

Just like the script, he woke up at this exact time. It seemed that the script could even control the characters' sleep. Last time in "Horror Bus", during the one-hour gap when the driver was killed, he had planned not to sleep, but as soon as he closed his eyes to rest, he fell asleep immediately.

He rubbed his eyes, straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes, and went to the bathroom to wash his face. On the way, he ran into Yu Chen.

The third act had begun, and today was the second day.

Out of the seven people, only Hou Tianbai had died so far. The situation seemed slightly better than expected.

Today, someone was bound to die.

So, there was absolutely no room for complacency!

While washing his face, Ye Xiang began to carefully read the third act of the script in his mind. What was in the basement room was still a mystery.

But next...

A great horror was about to arrive!
